Hope Of League Title
To Spur Duke Against
Deacons Saturday
BY the Assoeioted Press

A couple Of burning ambitions
collide head-on Saturday at
Durham, N. c., when Duke enter
tains Wake Forest in the Southern
Conference football game Of the
day.
On the other hand is the hope
of Duke that a victory over Wake
Forest will give it the momentum
it needs to go on and take the
conference championship. Duke
now is tied for the lead with
Maryland and VMI.
Should Duke get by Wake
Forest, it still would face the task
of subduing William and Mary
and North Carolina. A win over
the Deacons, however, might boost
the Duke morale to such a point.
On the other hand, Wake Forest
