GRID FIELDS OF SOUTH

CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA
Atlanta, (in., Nov. 28 Many pe
tacular gridiron eontcata will be playe.1
or aouthern fields tomorrow In the an
nual Thankslvlnir day game which
with a fw exception will bring the
1921 football aeaton to a close. Har
dened by the desperate encounter of
lata October and eurly November and
drilled to the minute In daczllng meth
oda of attack and defenne, most of
the big machlnea of Dixie meet rivals
of equal calibre.
The day will not bring together any
of the Ave elevens as yet undefeated
by a Dixie rival, Centre, Oeorgla, Geor
gia Tech, Vanderbllt and Washington
and Lee, but Tech and Vanderbllt at
least will meet opponents who will
force them to exert all their strength
and skill. The other three appear to
be In position to count on another
victory.
Centre college w"hlch has bowed to
no opponent this year, meets Tulane
for the first time, the match being
scheduled for New Orleans. Oeorgla,
which faces a gruelling contest this
Saturday with Dartmouth, will play
Clemson In Athens, The Oeorglans won
(5 to 0 last year and odds would seem
to be more In their favor this year, al
though they are expected to use many
substitute's. Oeorgla Tech will play
Itx 24th annual game with Auburn, the
series now standing Auburn 17, Tech
I. Tech, however, has won i out Of the
last (, Including last year's 14 to 0
victory.
Tennessee's annual classic, the Van-derbllt-Bewanee
match, went to . the
Commodores 21 to 3 last Thanksgiving
but both they and the Hewanee Tigers
hav much more representative elevens
this year and the game promises to
recall those of a decade ago when
this match was one of the south's
greatest. Washington and Lee, the
other undefeated eleven, meets Johns
Hopkins In Haiti more and while the
latter eleven has shown more strength
this year than usual, the supporters of
the generals confidently expect them
to come through vlotora.
Rivaling the games In which the
claimants to Dixie's highest football
honors participate, are many others in
which traditional rivals will meet. The
Virginia-North Carolina game, which
will be played after being on the verge
of cancellation ever the eligibility of
a Tar Heel player, is one of these.
Virginia triumphed 14 to 0 last year.
FOOTBALL GAME WILL
BE PLAYED TODAY BY
CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA
(Continued from Page On
tests will continue between teams of
the two Institutions." The resolutions
also Indorse In unqualified terms the
action of the Carolina faculty in up
holding the eligibility of Johnson.
In the wide-sweeping effort to ar
range the game wire and phone com
munication between Chapel Hill and
flu lotteevllle has been virtually con
tinuous all day long. In addition, Prof,
Frank If. Graham left here at 1 o'olock
last night to see President Alderman
and urge him to use his Influence for
Iho game. It 1a understood here that
Captain Illnrbart also went to Rich
mond to see President Alderman, and
It seems highly probable that the
I'omhlneri efforts of these two and
the deflnllo fact that students and
faculty at Carolina and students at
Virginia all unanimously desiring the
game, caused President Alderman to
Give Manager Harrison the go-ahead
word.
Everybody Wasted Gam.' -
The town Itself has been seething
as It has never seethed before. . Ono
rumor after another kept the student
on edge all day. The telegraph office
has been loaded with heavy buslnees
In Inquiries from outsiders as to wheth
er the game would be played and at
the telephone exchange students have
been lined up taking their turn to
cot in a word. From hundreds of alum
ni all over the state and alumni asso
ciations wires have poured congratu
lating the university on Its stand,
many of them phraaed in vigorous
language. One telegram came from a
Virginia alumnus In Itlchmond to the
same effect. Tlitre fa no uueMinn but
that everybody here wanted the game
and fought for It with all possible
strength.
Meantime the center of all the
diaouaaton. the redoubtable Johnnon,
Is the coolest, calmest person In all
the wild excitement of Chapel Hill, lie
has kept quiet throughout all the dis
cussion and attended strictly to his
own business. The football squad today
went through Its final practice for the
.Ham. Couches Hill and Hob Fetscr had
drfenslvo drill, punting and passing,
work. The men looked in good shape
and a short signal drill wound up the
end the coaches think the team will

son. Old injuries to Lowe and Gillon
have Improved and both ara ready for

line up follows: Knds. Cochrane -and

The overwhelming opinion here Is
this team Is atrong. They look for a
tremendously hard ynmo and they have
respect for the Virginia team. But
they believe that It 1b In the Tar Heels
lo win, and In Hint belief they are eet
end ready for the game.
The overwhelming opinions here Is
that faculty arted right when It re
fused to bar Johnson, and alt the talk
of the day has served to cinphaile that
opinion. The bnnla of the Virginia pro
test, an alleged amendment to the regu
lations to the southern association of
state universities, had never seen by
1h athletic committee here and furth
ermore Dr. Lefevre, of the Virginia
committee, told -the Carolina commit
tee that he did not know that It had
ever been ratified. Neither South Car
olina nor Tennessee, members of the
conference, had ever heard of it, and

Purple Whirlwind Succumbs to
Onslaughts of Twin City Team
Greensboro, By Losing to Winston-Salem In High Point Yesterday
23 to 7, Was Eliminated In the Interscholastic Champion
ship Series Fumble At Critical Moment Hurts.
igDKiii to halt, Knal
High Point, Nov. 23. Losing to. Win-ston-Hatem
here today by a score of
2J to 7, Oreensboro'a Purple Whirl
wind football outfit was eliminated In
the second game of the Interscholastic
championship of North Carolina. Winston-Salem
displayed marked Improve
ment over former contests and out
played the Greensboro warriors dur
ing the entire game.
The Twin City boy drew first blood,
scoring in the first quarter. They took
the pigskin In the middle of the field
and by a aeries of cross bucks, net
ting from three to 20 yards each, rush
ed the hall over. Greensboro's de
fense stiffened near the goal but after
being held for two downs McCorkle
drove the ball over. Joyce kicked
goal.
Oreensboro'a lone score cam In the
second period, following an advance
from mid-field with Daniel and P.
Transou doing most of the running.
The advance was temporarily halted
when Greensboro's fumble on the 20
yard line was recovered by a Wln-aton-Halem
man. A fumble by Wln-ston-Halem
on the next play, however,
gave the ball back to It former pos
sessors. Rushes by Daniel and Tran
sou followed by a cross buck by Daniel
made the touchdown possible. Daniel
kicked goaj.
A fumble on the one-yard line In
the third quarter ended another good
chance for the Gate City boy to score
nri this unquestionably proved the
turning point of the fight.
Winston-Salem' last two touch
downs and a safety, completing the 23
points, came In the fourth period. A
25-yard pass and a aerie of line bucks
from the center with Caldwell and
McCorkle doing the running netted the
first of these touchdowns. Wilson
carried the ball over, while Joyce
kicked goal.
. A few momenta later the Forsyth
eounty aggregation kicked but Greens
boro wa penalised 16 yards, planing
the ball on Greensboro' 10-yard line.
A bad pas from the eenter over Dan
iel' head counted for a safety, giving
Winston-Salem two additional points.
The final score for. the Twin City
high school followed a forward pass
which was Intercepted on Oreens
boro'a 20-yard line. The victorious
team then worked th ball up to it
opponent' three-yard line. After two
lunge at the Greensboro line, Sapp
scored on an off-tackle play.
Hlack, a substitute for Greensboro,
played well In the line, while Mc
Corkle, and Caldwell did the major
part of Winston-Salem' work.
The victory put Winston-Salem in
the final game for the western cham
pionship which must be played with
the winners of the Asheville-Shelby
match. This game will be played on
neutral territory, possibly her or In
Greensboro.

Some of the Oreenaboro high war
wondering last night just when Bill
Ogburn and Max Barnhardt, who at
tended the game In High Point yester
day, would reach home. It seem that
Bill and Max waxed enthuslastlo over
Greensboro's chances to win. In fact
so "pepped up" and confident were they
that they declared they would "walk
home if Greensboro lost." Well,
Greensboro lost and Hlfl and Max are
supposed to be on "their way."

- A great oriticiam here Is concerning
the fact that the - Virginia protest
came only a few day befor the game
and that with everything set for the
game they called it off. But for the
Virginia team and students and for
President Alderman the entire univer
sity has immense praise for their
sportsmanlike attitude.

Authorlxatlon wa given through
several member of the Virginia team
who mado a ipeclal trip to Richmond
to interview hlin on the subject, these
being Captain Hnllis Rlnehart. U. S.
Shackelford, and J. W. Hunn. They ex-
nlalned that Graduate Manager Har
rison and the team were planning to
leave Charlottesville for Chapel Hill
late this evening despite the action of
the Virginia faculty committee in can
celling tomorrow's game because of
Carolina' refusal to disqualify Red
Johnson, Its star back, for alleged In
eligibility.
The Virginia player who came here
said that the team wa eager to play
Carolina despite the action of the
committee In calling the game off.
They planned to leave Itlchmond to
night direct for Chapel Hill.
Ucsldes the student players who In
terviewed him, other Virginia students
In the party who enme down irom
Charlottesville were C. A. Ferguson,
A. M. Mahoon and Henry C. Hunt.
Richmond alumni who mot them at
the train expressed hearty sympathy
with tneir determination 10 piay we
Thanksgiving game with Carolina re
gardless of any technical objections
that might have been raised against
Johnson. Dr. Alderman himself will
not go to Chapel Hill, his plan being
to return to Charlottesville tomorrow.
He is a former president of the Uni
versity of North Carolina
After talking over th telephone
wvh the faculty committee. Dr. Alder
man sent the following self-explanatory
telegram to President Chasa of
the University of NorUi Carolina.
"I authorise your team to play the
Thanksgiving game not as an exhibi
tion or unofficial game, but as a regu
lar game. I desire to state that I en
dorse. In lull, the position of ;'our ath
letic uommitlee on this Issue, but
owing to the shortness of time in the
matter and the long history of cordial
relations between the Institutions, 1
am willing that the game go forward.
1 shall duem It wise and right to Issue
a statement about the matter later and
to tuke auch action aa may seem just
and proper. I deeply regret that the
difficulty ha arisen." A telegram to
the same effect was dispatched to Dan
ville to be delivered to Rice Warren,
Virginia coach, when he passed
through that city tonight with his
team.
PREPARATION AHH MADE TO
PI-AY TMAlvKHUIVINO CLASSIC
(By AMoeiitft rrttl.)
Raleigh, Nov. 28. The Thanksgiving
day football game between the Univer
sity of North Carolina and the Univer
sity of Virginia at Chapel Hill will be
Pluyed tomorrow, according to what is
regarded as authoritative information
from the University of North Carolina.
C. T. Woollen, graduate manager of
the University of North Carolina, lata
today telephoned Southern railway au
thorities her asking that the apecial
train arranged for the game and can
celled earlier today, be operated. He
stated, according to railway authori
ties, that the game would be played.
Dr. Alfred Lefevre, chairman of the
University of Virginia faculty commit
tee, tonight announoed that th game
would be -played, aooordlag to official
report received here.
VIRGINIA RTUDKNTS 00 OVER
HEADS OF THIO COMMITTEE
ISiwrUI U lllr Nan.)
Charlottesville, Va Nov. IS. The
University of Virginia and the Uni
versity of North Carolina will play
football tomorrow at Chapel Hill
whether the Virginia faculty "commit
tee say so or not.
Disregarding the faoulty committee's
action In cancelling the annual turkey
day contest at the eleventh hour be
cause of the alleged ineligibility of
' lied Johnson. Carolina's halfback
the student body and football squad
rose up in arm here th 1st afternoon
and staged an unprecedented demon
stration of disapproval of the com
rnlttee ruling. A a result the football
team left her at :6S tonight . for
Chapel Hill.'
There were three potent factors In
bringing about this rebellious act on
the'purt of the student body. At a
mass meet liipw held Inst night bv the
student bmlv, It was the unanimous
-t i !,n !-r( i;i :i.ieM' c "yi bo pla) -
ed. While the student body at Vir
ginia feels that the faculty committee,
composed of Dr. Lambeth, Lefevre,
Lewi and Neff, were justified in can
celling the contest it I objected that
the game should not have been called
off at the eleventh hour.
The second factor wa a telegram of
a derisive nature received by the foot
ball team from a group of people In
Wlnston-Halem, N. C.
The third consideration wa an offer
by a prominent alumnus of Albemarle
oounty to defray all expense of the
trip.
Captain Rhlnehart, BUI Dun, captain
of the banobull team; George Scott
Shackelford, president of the O. A. A.,
and member of the football team, went
to Richmond early thl afternoon In an
attempt to persuade Dr. Alderman,
president of the university, to overrule
the faculty committee's decision. Both
men made It known to the football
team that no matter what the outcome
of the conference was they would meet
the rest, of the team In Chapel Hill to
morrow. Excitement is at fever heat around
the university.
New that the team Is going to play
the game has spread like wildfire and
a late telegram from Chapel Hill I to
the effect that 20.000 spectators will be
on hand If the seating spaoe In the
Carolina stadium can be made ade
quate. Coaches, managers and a number of
faculty members accompanied the
team.
