In the line Cunnif and Daly, both! guards on last season's team, will again try for their old positions, and it will take two good husky men to wrest their places from them. "Skip" Wy man, left tackle, should be valuable as a punter. His work last season caused Coach Newman to predict that the gritty tackle, with more experience, would develop into a brilliant kicker. Georgetown was greatly handicapped last season because the team lacked a good man for booting the pigskin. Captain Lowney will either play his old position at right end or one of the backs. This will be decided on when the team has been out for a week or so and the material thoroughly looked over. Billy Sitterding, whose return to school was doubtful, sent word that he would return the middle of this week. Sitterding's return will greatly strengthen athletics at the West End institution, as he is a most valuable man to both the football and basebell teams. Charllolte Observer. Blacksburg, Sept. 20. Work is be ing pushed rapidly on the new athletic field, and every effort is being made to get the gridiron in shape by Octo ber 2, for the opening game with Clemson. The teams are down to actual prac tice and great enthusiasm prevails as to the outlook for a winning team. The coaches will be confronted with the problem of developing a quarter back, but several promising candidates are available. Emory Hodgin, cap tain this year; Hughes, Luttrell, H. G. Jones, V. B. Hodgson, and Gibbs, of last year's varsity, will return; Burrus Davis, Norriss, B. Hodgson, and Legge substitutes are also expected back. College does not open until the 22nd, and it is impossible to make any pre diction as to new material. The sched ule this year is one of the hardest in years, including games with a majori ty of the strongest teams in the South. Princeton has moved the date of her game several days later in the season than was at first announced. The usu al Thanksgiving game with North Carolina A. and M. will be played in Norfolk. Charlotte Obserxer. Durham, Sept, 18. As football is under ban at Trinity, basketball is the most popular fall sport. Official prac tice begins Monday. There are three of the old men back this year; West, guard; Stewart, forward, and Jones, forward. The last named players are Charlotte boys. There are about twenty-five men in the squad and the va cances will be easily and capably filled. The schedule, which is a very exten- i i i 1 sive one. includes two iames 10 oe and soisome of the new men may walk away with a position on the varsity. May the best men win, and win for Carolina. As we go to press we are asked to give some later news from the gridiron. Well, things have been going pretty much as usual since the last of the wpplr. vThe nreliminarv practise of JT punting, receiving, and returning the same, falling on the ball, etc. has con tinued' through the first part of this week, a Each day has drilled the men more thoroughly in these basic tactics until now they are ready for scrim mage. I The Coach gave out this even ing that all that prevented the immed iate lining up for the fray was the in ability to get shoulder and elbow pads. As soon as these can be gotten here, scrimmage will begin. This first day will orobablv be Thursday. Until ac- tual battle between line and line little more than mere conjecture can be made as to the real strength of our team. The men are regaining their old form rapidly. We note especially the run ning of Ruffin, He seems to be in bet ter condition now than ever, and will tear large holes in Virginia's line if he keeps' it up at the present rate. It were idle in these columns to say we are glad to see E. A- ..Thompson back at guard. Every student is more than pleased to see. his huge form in the lines., Its up to him and his side pardner, Capt. Garrett, to make the holes for the backs to go through and make them they will, we are confident. Capt. "Ich" is handling his men well. He is, as he always has been, a hard worker on the gridiron, and his ex- j ample is doing much to spur on the new men and encourage the old. Deans at center is having a hard fight with L.'A. Brown. It remains to be seen who will get the better of the argu ment. Fountain is pushing Tillett at quarter! "Billy" is handling the ball with perfect ease, and is speedy and heady in running signals. Tillett is fast regainitig his speed and natural ability to run a team. He will give Foun tain the fight of his life. Hedgepeth is showing up best so far for right tackle. fHe has taken the coaching well, and shows material for a lines man of high order. All of us are glad to see Norwood back again at right guard. His record of lart year is an enviable one, and he promises a better one this season. The punting of W. P. Belk is attracting much attention on the side lines. For a man of his size. Belk has no superior in college as a kicker, and scarcely an equal among men of larger build. In the back field Williams, Crosswell, Porter, Ruffin, and Belden- are carrying the ball with remarkable speed and ease. There is to be a free-for-all fight for the back field positions. a Now ia the time, Kluttz'sis the place to buy your new Fall Hats, Shoes, Shirts, Neckwear and everything in men's Fur nishings.
