C. BYRD. OOT BALL coaches over the F entire South, and in some parts of the East, are put- ting on the finishing touches for Thanksgiving day battles that usually are the epics of their sea- sons. In the South especially is this true, as it is on this day that many ancient rivalries are set- tled. In these games success fori the year either is won or lost, as| defeat almost ruins whatever tri-| umphs may previously have been attained by the loser. Closest to Washington are the two oldest of such rivalries, those between Maryland and Johns Hopkins and be- tween Virginia and North Carolina. And one of the next oldest also is not much farther away, Virginia Polytechnic In- stitute and Virginia Military Institute. All these are of such a nature that for the contending teams victory means al- most_everything. Maryland, for instance, might win every game on its schedule, but then lose to Hopkins, and it wculd feel that it had done nothing. Virginia, has gone through a very poor season, but give it the lm end of the score against North lina day after tomorrcw and the year would take on a golden tint. Maryland Is Favorite. ‘Maryland ought to win from Hopkins. It has proved much stronger all dur- ing the year than the Baltimoreans. and it would take an almost complete reversal of form for the Old Liners to down before their ancient enemy. lowever, that is not an 1mposslbu(ty, as nn.nn things happen on the gridiron. has a way of rising to real hts against the OIld Line eleven, at times has done very unexpected things. In 1923, for instance, Maryland beaten Penn and played an even game against Yale, and nobody con- eedfld Hopkins a ghost of a chance. But Hopkins got a tie score, and came thin an ace of winning. And gnother thing, Mnrylund has played through a schedule in which every game has been a hard game, and such a schedule takes far more out of 8 team than an earlier list of games. However, that kind of a schedule also recompensing virtues, as it tempers the mettle in a team and gives it a kind of strength that an easier schedule never builds. In other words, the kind et achedule that Maryland Hhas played | & team under fire and gives it ufimumtnmhmofihnwuy Mary! an nmum always is interesting. is one of intense partisan interest, one in ‘which followers of the two universities have their grea concern. It is a game that these followers go to see, no | matter what the previous record of their Virginia Is Underdog. records made by Virginia and Oarolina are such that Virginia seem to be a rank outsider, but if the Davidson game was a real criterion then North Carolina must have slipped somewhat in the last month. Davidson beat the Tarheels by one mt. and Davidson is not among the ngest teams in the section. It ‘would be a great triumph for Virginia to take a fall out of the Chapel Hill institution, and such an outcome is not beyond possibility. However, on a basis of their October form, North Carolina ought to win eas Virginia Polytechnic Institute is much l'nnuer than Virginia Military Insti- tute, but may not win, at that. Bill ‘The North ‘would see: h-nmu foot ball and often he has outsmarted V. P. I. and won with a weaker eleven. This happened two years ago. He may do the same thing again, altitough. right now potentially V. P. L is much the better eleven. Down in = v}v‘ht;v.l:hould be a scheduled between Georgia and Alabama. Both schools are among the four strongest in the South and the fame, especially if Ala- bama wins, will do more to decide the Mlthe’rn fitle than any other.

NNAPOLIS, Md., November 25.— With the regulars of ths NIVII‘ Academy foot ball team resting | vesterday after the stiff game with Maryland Saturday, Ingram and his assistants had a chance to work with a reserve team which probably will start against George Washington here next Saturday. Not only will the reserves be needed for that game, but Ingram seized upon the chance to give some special train- ing to a number of players who may be used in the two big contests to come against Pennslvania and the Army. ‘Though recognizing the danger which may arise from teams not regarded as formidable, Ingram will have to take George Washington in stride and hold out his regulars as far as possible. A | game of this character is welcome to the Navy team, which has had hard ofpmillon in all of the eight games d up to this point, and it is hoped | U.
