The squad| is due to leave Washington at 9 o'clock and to arrive in New York in time for a light workout at the Yankee Stadium. It is likely that several hundred = students will make the trip on a special train as there is much interest in the game. The Blue and Gray supporters in| looking back on the showing made by their team in its last two games look forward to it having a good chance against any of its remaining opponents. Tom Mills feels about the same way about it. “I think we have a fairly good chance against New York University, notwithstanding that school has one | of the best elevens going,” said Mills today in discussing plans for the trip. Meehan has developed an eleven that is going along at & fast gait against all comers, but we, while not setting the world afire, have shown enough to warrant a firm belief in the potential worth of our men. We really outplayed Boston College to a greater extent than the score showed, h it took a great second half Imost, - superhuman foot ball at end of the score. Cagle May Enter N. Y.
