o i — orth Carolina Elevens to Be Strong TRIO OF BIG SCHOOLS CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS BY H. C. BYRD. LL three of the most important foot ball teams in North Carolina expect the most successful se: war. University of North Carolinia, North Carelina State College and Davidson College have come out flat-footedly with statements to the effect that they gauge.their prospects as excellent, and look for much better records than usual. North Carolina University has back practically the same squad that represented it last year, and even of the eleven men who started the game with Virginia last Thanks day have been in uniform since the first of September, and practical the most capable second-string men Eight North Carolina State College regulars are practicing and besides these there are available some very good men who were not eligible a year ago and also the best men of the 1920 freshman squad. At Davidson seven letter men are members of the squad, besides the promising sub- stitutes of last year and the good material found in this years fresh- man elass. Veterans at Univeraity. At North Carol both ends, Mor- ris and Shepard; both guards, Point- dexter ana Pritchard; Jacobi, center: McDonald, quarter, and Hutchins and Lowe, halfbacks. Besides these regu- lars there are available Pharr, regu- lar quarterback last fall until he was injured in the North Carolina State contest, and Brown and Robbins, neither of whom played in 1920, but were regular guards in 1919. Baxter Gillin is a halfback from the fre man squad of last year, of Whi North_Carolina expects much. He is fast. heavy and either a good line plunger or a runner in the broken field. Johnson, who starred at halfback for North Carolina State last season, also is out for the North Carolina University team, and is eligible to play. He should make a brilliant rec- ord in North Carolina’s schedule. State Has Good Backs. Regular backs at North Carolina State are Facuette, quarterback and captain, and Parks, halfback. The latter is an excellent punter and it was his 85-yard boot last season chich enabled North Carolina State to beat the Navy. Plerson is another Tegular back of last season Wwho is showing good form. Everhart, center: Wearn, end; Floyd, guard, and Weathers, tackle, are expected to be bulwarks of the defense. Davideon's” Squad Formlidal Davidsorf has three of its last sea- son's backs in the line-up and four linemen. McFadden, halfback; Be- thea, halfback, and Moore, quarter- back, are the men who did the bulk of the oftensive performances which fezted North Carolina 7 to 0 a year Lafar, tackle: Schenk, H tackle, and Faison, end, arc the regular linemen back from 1920. Erwia and Long, backs; Hamer, Brice, Fields, Lewis, Sorrels, Clark, Knight and Allen are the big line- men most prominent in the daily workouts, while, besides the regular ends, Black and Richards are doing well in the flanking positions. Davidson is the only one of the three institutions mentioned which has the same coaching as last sea- Grey, all-southern guard in again is handling the squad, fter a successful experience in the ame_capacity in 1920. North Caro- lina University will have much bet- ter coaching this year than last, Bil Fetzer, former Davidson and North Carolina State mentor. having taken p the reins there. He knows foot all_and knows how to teach it Harry Hartsell, who coached North Carolina State in 1917, is back at the helm there and everybody at Raleigh expects him to make good. Georgetown began practice yester- day with a squad of fifty men, amon whom are many of the regulars o 1920 and some of the most promising prep school material the school has ever had. Albert Exendine was in his old capacity as head coach and he began immediately to make the squad jump in his efforts to get it in shape to make the right kind of a showing in its opening game with Lebanon Valley October 1. Accord- ing to present indications, the back- fleld will be built around Jack Flavin, captain, and John McQuade, star back two years ago. Vacant positions in the line will be fillec from the most promising of the new candidates. Catholic University's first scrim- mage yesterday was marked by in- juries to two of its best players, Em- and De Nault, halfbacks. Both in ing their way through the sec- ond string line got severe blows, the former on the jaw and the latter on the head. ‘The Brooklanders open their sea- son Octobér 1 with Richmond Ual- versity and realize they must put in some hard licks to get in shape to play real foot ball by that time. Maryland and George Washington Ilined up yesterday in their first scrimmage at College Park, and for the edification of those who may think the Hatchetites will not have a stronger team than last year it may be toid that they scored two touch- downs. Bill Quigley joined the squad yes- lerday as line coach. Quigley worked with the forwards for half an hour and they seemed to take his instruc- tions to heart and put them in prac- tice.

The Manual Trainers have started a training table, and the first squad, including about twenty-four candidates, gets &! specially prepared luncheon daily at the school. A diet has been prelcr!h»l ed for meals at home, and the bove| put on their honor to adhere amcuy! to the menu. Coach Apple does not believe in cake and ice cream meals for his charges, and hopes to keep the Tech gridders in tter con- ditlon for the champlonship cam- paign_ with the new plan. Tech chose a new captain yester- day to replace Ed Pugh, the big full- back who has entered the University of Marylanl. The squad did not go, outside of the Pugh family, however, for its new leader is Ed's brother Jim, who played a stellar game at end for the Manual Trainers last season. Charley. another of the Pughs, also is with the Tech first squad and may get a regular berth In_the backfleld. He was with the 135-pound eleven last year. Western, Business, 'Eastern and Central were hurried through drills sterday, and soon will be ready for some real foot ball Large squads were out at each school and went through practice in snappy manner. By the first of next week the coaches expect to have formed line-ups that will carry the burden of battle in the regular games.
