ASHINGTON has for years been without a good Thanksgiving day foot ball game, but that ondition will be changed on ursday. Games scheduled by iGeorge Washington and Catholic [University are fairly sure to offer fmore good foot ball than has been een here on any holiday in the flast decade. Both local schools Yare strong and their opponents “have proved sufficiently so to war- ant an opinion that the Colonials jand Brooklanders do not stand =‘ny better than even chances to in.

Detroit’s strength offensively may be gauged by the fact that it scored three touchdowns against Michigan State, an eleven against which did not score at all. On the other hand, the Blue and Gray defense gets a bit of bright com- parison virtue of its ability to hold Michigan State to one touchdt , while Detroit was scored on twice. No doubt the Blue and Gray has a hard nut to crack. The game probably will develop more good foot ball than any other town has played here this season. Coach Tom Mills will have his team’s courage and physical power will have to go through fire if they are to we superior to the Detroit men. It should be a great game. ‘many sections of the South Thanks- giving day rivalries of long standing will be fought out.

DUNBAR HIGH RETAINS COLORED GRID TITLE Also Gets South Atlantic Crown as It Defeats Armstrong in 7-0 Game. Dunbar still rules the roost in District colored public high school foot ball Conquering Armstrong yesterday, 7 to 0, the Poets retained the District title which they won last season.

He also tallied the extra point on a pass from Mat- thews. Armstrong made its only threat in the final three minutes. It was broken up when Turner intercepted a pass from Miller ' to Williams on the Dunbar 3- yard line. Line-ups and Summary. Dunbar (7). Posttion. X gsition. Armstrong (0) IGALLAUDET CLASS: .

Gallaudet’s annual intra- mural foot ball battle be- tween the Prep-Fresh and the Soph-Junior-Senior combinations, to be played Thanksgiving day, already has supporters of the rival factions at one another. Although carded as a clash of “molly- coddle” players, the contest promises to be red hot. With varsity players handling the two aggregations, secret drills are being conducted daily. The Preps-Frosh team, called the all-Americans, is bel coached by Ruddy Gamblin in the line, while An- ton O'Branovich handles the backs. gnu Ladner is manager of the aggrega- lon. On the other side of the campus the upper classmen have vowed to live up to their name, Gallaudet's House of David, at least until after the game.

Central will be striving to even scores for an 18-0 defeat handed it by the Little Generals in the “C” Club affair last season and figures that it stands - a first-rate chance of doing so.
