George Washington and Ursinus Clash Saturday for Walter Camp Memorial Fund GAME’S PROCEEDS TO AID ) *'YALE MONUMENT PROJECT C«i:lonials Assisting Elis in Plan to Honor Memory of Man Who Did So Much te Advance College Foot Ball—Maryland Helps Later. BY H. C. BYRD. EORGE WASHINGTON plays a fost bail game Saturday at Clark srifith Stadium that, as far as the game itself is concerned, prob- ably will be fa m a great game, but which, nevertheless, de- serves real public support financially. Ursinus comes here‘to meet the ‘ocal eleven, and in all probability will afford oniy ordinary opposition, but the very fact that the contest has been designated as a “Walter Camp Memorigl Game™ should be sufficient to bring out better support than has been given at any previous contest in which+Crum’s team has taken part. Probably no other u in the ki ever occupied so promineng a position as Walter Camp. Especially is this | what he did for intercollegiate foot ball and for his work in his | true. ir late yoars along recreational lines. He was ruggad. earnest. and hones and at the sam> time had within him the splend'd instinets that come from refinement and culture. As a Yale [ he was for Yale. firet, last and vet he had a spirit of brgad that gave him 2n nz of othars and held for him a «t and liking that was country- ition Many Colleges Aiding.

It is this game Saturday that George Washington has named as the one from which it will defray its share of the expenses of that memorial. For 1t reason alone, if not to watch a 21l game, everybody who knows what foot ball 18, what it stands for 2 who knows what Walter Camp lond for, should support the game. e Washington people undoubt- cdly will desire to see the game. not only- because of its outside aspects but hecause it is a_game that should be well played and in which their own team ought to give a good demon ciration of offensive play.

A victory for Western over Central, the only team it has not met, will give it the title. Although neither eleven managed to score yesterday, both threatened seriously to do so on more than ong occasion. ‘Western had a great chance to count during the second period, but it went a-glimmering when Schneider of the Georgetowners fumbled on Eastern’s 3-yard line, and Munro re- Standing of Teams. covered for the Light Blue and White.

Although neither team has a chance for first or second place in the series, interest is'great. due to the traditional rivalry between the two schopls. Owen Creegan, who i{s now coach- ing the team, has been working George Mason at top speed since the team last played two weeks ago in its losing contest with Alexandria. Alexan Fire Department foot ball team will meet up with the Fort Humphreys eleven here Sunday after- noon on the Dreadnaught fleld in a Northern Virginia champlonship game and the largest crowd of the season is expected to attend the event. St. Mary's Celtics will clash with the Peerless A. C. on the Lyceum Hall basket ball court Friday night at 7:30 in_a practice game. Kersey, Gorman, Brenner, Wingfleld, Cronin, Zimmerman, Plerpoint and Allen will play for the Celtics. Virginia Episcopal School's eleven will come from Lynchburg with the best aerfal attack seen this year among the prep schools of Yirginia to bombard Hoxton Field with heaves which are intended to overthrow Episcopal High. The Episcopal team will be the under dog, due to compar- ative scores with the Staunton Mili- tary Academy. Episcopal lest to Staunton, 88 to 7, while Virginia Episcopal won, 18 to 0. Alexandria High School will meet Warrenton High Saturday afternoon at the Dreadnaught Park in a Second Athletic District series. The contest CLASH OF PERSONALITIES IN BIG TEN GRID BATTLES Stagg and Zuppke, Coaches, to Match Wits in One of Games, While There Will Be Struggles Between Star Backs in Others. By the Assoclated Press. HICAGO. November 3.—Western Conference foot ball this week is a battle royal of personalities. . And not all of them are fleet-footed backs, because the Illinois- i Chicago game is essentially a duel between A. A. Stagg and Bob Zuppke, who for years have taken their foot ball out in coaching. The Northwestern-Purdue game is, ia addition to affording one of the strongest bidders for the Big Ten title a chance to drop out of the:run- ning. a contest between “Moon"” Baker, versatile leader of the Purple, and “Cotton” Wilcox, back. who has figured largely in making Purdue a con- ference threat this Fall. At Towa it will be Kutsch, who al- ready has made his reputation with the Hawkeyes, and Herb Joesting of Minnesota, who stréngthened his bid for recognition by a brilliant share in last Saturday's nosing out of Wis- consin. In the way of petsonalities, Frosty Peters and the toe that gave the IMini a 3-0 decision over Pennsylvania will be the headliners at Illinois-Chicago. but in the main the game matches “Old Man" Stagg and Zuppke, Zuppke has all the best of it, on the season's performance, but followers of the game recall a day in 1924 when the relative situation of the two teams was somewhat similar and Illinois had Grange, and the late Walter Camp called the 21.21 tie one of the greatest games he ‘had ever seen. On the strength of the tie Chicago won the conference éhampionship. Stagg's attention was divided today between defense and a rhyvihmic chift which met with some succéss gainst Ohio and which he hopes a backfield intact for the first time in weeks will make effective againat his old rival. At Michigan, Yost, too, workad on some new attack strategy with a team chastened by the altogether un expected downfall before Navy. At Wisconsin, George Little drilled the Badgers against Michigan plays as ex- ecuted by his freshmen. Yost's preparations for Wisconsin go forward while he keeps a weather eve on the gameé a week hence with Ohio, where Wilce is bolstering his chances of snatching the title from Michigan by a week end of rest for the Buckeyes. Indiana is the other Big Ten school not figuring this weely in conference foot ball., the Hoosters facing another defeat in their game with Notre Dame. e > New York Giants, 7: Canten Bull- logs, 7. g“ew York Yankees, $5; Rock Is- land, 0. Right and left, they’re turning to natu:al tobacco taste! IT’S more than a nation-wide shift from one ciga rette to another. Cigarette taste is changing. More and more men are demanding a cigarette of naturaltobacco taste. Men want a cigarette in which the character and goodness of fine tobaccos are brought out to the full. What they want, they have found in Chesterfield —and this explains why Chesterfield is still, as for four years past, America’s fastest growing cigarette. Chesterfi CIGARETTES Such popularity d
