James, Oldham, Chit, Giles, Bolt and Mann. The University coach Is Mr. H. B. : . Oieott, a graduate of Tale and a foot ball player of great reputation. . Davld- , son's coach is Mr. J. A. Brewln, of the . Boston College. ' It will be noted at a glance, to-day, ' that the University men are heavier than their opponents. Their average weight Is 165 pounds, while the Presby terianr boys average only 14 pounds. - Despite this difference in weight, how ever, it Is expected that the game will r.e close. True, the University team has always defeated Da vlds6n in the four or five contests In the past, but , the superiority was never manifested by a large score. The Davidson iwn claim that this year they have the best team . - , they have ever put in the field. . and - they are determined to win to-dav if ' hard, snappy playing is backed by any tort or goon luck. ' The games played by the two teams ' this season show both to advantage The University defeated Oak Ridge 35 to C: Guilford College, M to 0, and Fur man, 10 to . Davidson defeated Oak ' Ridge, 28 to 5, but lost to Furman by score of 6 to 0. It is claimed that In , . the Furman game Davidson had to play , iwr substitutes ana lost oti that ' ac count., In to-day's struggle Davidson will have picked men at every position) A number of students from the Unl- verstty accompanied the- team last nlTht Of course practically alt of Da- . vldson College will arrive on the train this morning. Twill be. a gala day for the students; for it is not often that n college boy has an opportunity of wit nessing a circus, a football game and a - first-class theatrical performance all in a period of ten hours. , - , , The University Iutonda to Plla Cp a Big Chapel Hill, Oct. 17. Considerable In terest Is manifested here In the game with Davidson in Charlotte to-morrow, The University never has put a heavy ' ' score on Davidson on account of hav ing some of its men disabled just before- the game. Last year some of the 'Vanity's best men were either sick or - 'hurt and the result was Davidson held , " them down I to 0. Foust ; and. Jones, " Carolina's big lockers,' were" both In jured in a practice game-day before yesterday, but not seriously and both will probably be in the game Saturday. The 'Varsity, while not very heavy, Is wwiuenuiiy imbi am muxes up iot us lack of, heavy weight In the line by great speed and strong interference. Davidson is also reported to be both heavy and fast and a battle royal is expected. The boys from Mecklenburg always seem to rather their energies together In ttwlr annual game with the University and put up a plucky game every time. The "Varsity is resolved to pile up a good-slued score; Davidson is determined to hold them down. The issue is aw.t'tej vJth great interest. The Unlv,r.itty will probably ll.ie np her men as follows: Townsend, right end! Jones, right tackle; Shepherd, right guard; Stewart, centre; Farlowe, left .guard; Foust, left tackle; Fisher, left end; Graves, quarter-back; Eagle, full back; half-backs, Oldham; Jacobs, Berkeley, Newton.
