C, Nov., 23.-The Col versity football team will leave tomor row morning tor Richmond, V., where on Thureday afternoon it will struggle upon the gridiron for supremacy with the stalwart warriors from the University of Virginia in the Southern champion ship game. ; The following boys will com pose the University football sqaud: Foust, Stewart, Farlow, Jones, Donnelly, Al bright, Cox, Condon, Flsber.Bolt.Engle, Mann Nowton, Jones, H-; Berkley, End! cott, Jacocks, Carr and graves. , The "outcome of the game, according to the, "College Topics," a weekly paper published by the University of Virginia, is indeed a foregone conclusion. It states In substance that the question ' to cor slder Is not whether Virginia will defeat Carolina, but. how much. The "Tar Heels" do nop entertain hope of victory so strongly as their Virginian blends, but will enter the' game with such a dogged determination as will eause a Tictory to be deservedly won. ' j A comparison of score will enable one to judge of the relative strength of the spective teams. Virginia ousted V, P. I. by a score of 5 to O and Davidson suc cumbed to the orange and black by a score of 35 to 0, while Carolina played V. P. I. to a standstill, neither side scor ing, and defeated Davidson by a score of 27 to 2, playing only seven mlnutos in the second half. This shows that both taams are evenly matched, and a hard and desperats straggle Is confidently ex pected by all. " , ' ' (Purely Personal Oh Items About People rr . 57ho Come and fro Mr. J.-C.
