UNIVERSITY, SATURDAY, SEPT. “‘f’*.‘v‘-r[‘.’.'-""m'»“7v‘ -1.3%‘-'-3! i'r'*:‘.'f"'."‘.‘?’."*"""‘-'~ GENERALS HAVE FINE CHANCE a T0 UPSET JINX, Mountaineer Coach Worried Over Outcome of Game Next Saturday Afternoon RODGER USES NEW SYSTEM Generals Have 11 Three Year Men; 15 Two Year Men; 10 One Year Men on Squard With the Generals conceded a more than even chance against the Moun- taineers of West Virginia in the an- nual game next Saturady on Liadley field in Charlestion, W. Va., throngs of alumni are stating their intentions of seeing the game as well as a large number of students who are availing themselves of the new cut system. Every one is anxious to see a eleven on the field against the Generals. The Rodger eleven has been able to de- feat the Generals only by the “shift,” for when they resorted to straight football the Blue and White of the Old Dominion was more than a match. The new football rules for- bid the famous “shift” which West Virginia has been so well known by for the past ten or 12 years. While the spirits at the General’s camp is high, that of the Mountain- eer is down the depth. The entire left side of the line and one on the right side faced the Blue and White last year will be missing. It is up to Coach Rodgers to develop four new linesmen to face the Generals while six of the Generals front wall that faced the Mopntaineers will be intact this time. The Rodger eleven has to promote two new backs to fill the vacancies left by graduations. The Generals have three monogram backs ready for service as well as two reserves and four first rate sophomores. . H. A. Stansbury, director of Ath- letics at West Virginia says, “The veteran Generals have the best chance in years to win a decision from a much less experienced Moun- taineer eleven.” The West Virginia followers have a right to be worried when they take into consideration that the var- sity squad is composed of 11 three year men, 15 two year men. and ten from the fresh eleven of 1926. That means that the Generals have 11 men that have played together for three years, 15 for two, and ten for one, which gives the Generals a well seasoned collection of candidates to choose a starting eleven from. “I rank the Washington and Lee University eleven right along with Georgetown and Carnegie Tech this year,” said Coach I. E. Rodgers when approached on the Generals chances. The West Virginia coach continued, “One thing is certain, the Washington and Lee players will enter the game next Saturday with a great deal more confidence that they have had in the past decade and confidence always goes a long way in any branch of sport. I am truly more afraid of this game this year than I have been at any time since I have been coaching here at West Virginia, for I realize that the Generals have a large veteran squad which has been augmented by the addition of some fine new blood from last year’s freshman eleven.” He wound up his statement by saying, “I wish that game was over and won. I’d be satisfied with a one point margin.” “shiftless” Moupntaineer Y. M. C. A.

Officers Chosen By Four Classes Senior Academs, Senior Commerce Senior Science and Junior Law Classes Elect Heads Large attendances marked the an- nual elections of the three senio—r classes and of the junior law class at their meetings held last Thursday night. Close balloting featured in most of the races and much “politic- in” was in evidence. The meetings Thursday night were the initial at- tempts of the upper classes to get organized for the 1927-28 sessions. In the Geology room the Academic Seniors elected the following officers: H. B. Neill, Greensboro, N. C., Presi- dent; Myer Seligman, Shaw, Miss,, vice-president; G. W. Dunning- ton, Kansas City, Mo., secretary and treasurer; W. M. Garrison, Easley, S. C., historian; and F. W. Sherril, Pensacola, Florida, executive commit- tee. W. L. Harris of Washington, D. C. was elected president of the Senior ‘Jommercc class in the meeting in .\lewcomb Hall. Joseph Kaplan, Ky, vice-president; W. C. Norman- secretary and treasurer; W. T. Owen, llarksville, Va., historian; and W. H. Reardon, Jacksonburg, W. Va., ex- -cutive committee. At the meeting of the Senior Science class held in Reid Hall, J. B. Ecker, Lexington, Va., was elected president; R. J. Haller, Greensboro, .\l. C., vice-president; A. C. Boiseau, Roanoke, Va., secretary and treas- urer; J. B. Cooper, Lexington, Va., nistorian; and R. E. Kepler, Lawren- eeville, Kan., executive committee. In the Junior Law Class W. A. Ward, Atlanta, Ga., was elected president; W. D. Bach, Plainfield N. J. vice-president; Allen Penick, Lexington, Va., executive committee. The meeting was held in Tucker Hall. The Freshmen class is class in school which as yet have not elected their officers. A meet- ing has been called for this purpose for next Friday night. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE REAWARDED Stearns and Wice Profit By Failure of McCain and Moore To Return the only Two of the most valuabble scholar- "hips in the university for the school session of 1927-28 have been re- awarded, owing to failure of the original winners to return to school this year. Thomas Price Stearns, Bel Air, Md., has been awarded the Ma- pleson scholarship, bearing a practical value of $400. Former- ly it was awarded to Samuel A. McCain, Little Rock, Ark., who was elected a Rhodes scholar and who is now at Oxford college, England. The scholarship was originally endowed by J. H. Ma- pleson, of New York, and is only given to graduates of the aca- demic school of Washington and Lee university who return for post—graduate work. The Howard Houston ship has been awarded to David Herchell Wice, Petersburg, Va., and bears a cash value of $420. John Preston Moore, Lexington, now an instructor at Davidson college, was the original winner. The fellowship was endowed by Howard Houston, of Philadel- phia, in memory of his deceased son. fellow- TROUBADOURS TRY-OUT TO BE HELD MONDAY Be Annual Call For Aspirants To Answered At Newcomb Hall Plans To Be Rounded For Thanksgiving Show floor, Monday night at 7:30. way for the annual which is to take place Easter. three act farce by Owen Davis. which character five female parts, several good tions. has had any dramatic to try out for the cast. ability. experience, hence all, freshmen are urged to compete. comedy parts best adapted at some of the schools available material kept in mind. various three branches, glee club, club, and orchestra. winter. annual tour. munication with the show. approximately fifty men tour. “Stolen Sweets” scored wares again this year. a number of song hits this past summer. book for the musical comedy. covered in that class.

According to Harold Slanker, the manager, about fifty- five or sixty piece band is expected the small attendance being due to the fact that many had to attend labora- tories. There are about twenty old men back who will serve as nucleus around which the new organization will be built. All departments will be unusually strong. The exact number of the various kinds of in- struments is not yet fully known, but much talent is in evidence in all departments. Last year’s uniforms will be used again this year. The band will ac- company the football team to the V. P.

MANY CHANGES . lN UNIVERSITY FACULTY MADE Seven New Teachers Take All Schools Affected; ment of Education and Phi- Created Places; Depart- losophy With the opening of the fall ses- sion at Washington and Lee Univer- sity, a number of changes have been made in the faculty at this institu- tion. The following are the most im- portaant: Henry V. Shelley, A. B., A. M., Ph. D., who last year was Lafayette College in Eastman, Pa., has suc- ceeded Dr. J. 0. Lofberg as head of the department of classical lan- guages. Doctor Lofberg has gone to Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio, where he will have charge of the department of classical languages. Raymon T. Johnson, A. B., J. D., is Dr. Albert Levitt’s successor as professor of law. Doctor Johhson was an assistant professor at Wash- ington and Lee two years ago, and has been practicing law since that time. Charles R. McDowell, A. B. A. M., LL. B., who formerly taught at Centre College in Kentucky, but who has more recently been a prac- ticing lawyer, takes the place of Mr. Lewis Tyree as professor of law. Mr. Tyree goes to the New Jersey Col- lege of Law in Newark, N. J. Edwin H. Howard, B.

Generals displayed a game in spots, and their first appear- ance this fall was an impressive one, altho they lacked the smooth~ ness of a finished machine which is not to be expected this early in the season. Coach Herron presented a fast, and hard group of gridders and they set about. from the start, on the path to their initial victory of the season. Two sets of backs, both fast and heady and with scarcely any noticable dif- ference between them, plowed their way thru the opposition time and again and were aided by a line that showed a powerful drive and punch at times and one that was almost impregnable on the defense. Brilliant broken field running by Lott, who was forced from the game early last fall due to an injury and who made his first real appearance today since then, was one of the bright spots of the afternoon. His running, passing and punting made him conspicuous in his brilliance. Gene White, plunging fullback, Bobby Howe and Eberhart, star of last year’s freshman team, were other luminaries in the play and reeled off considerable gains that brought the spectators to their feet. In the line Captain Tips was a tower of strength. Sproul, at left- end, was under every punt and in- variably downed his man in his tracks. Babe Spotts showed his last season’s fine form in his play this afternoon, displaying his adept- ness at receiving passes and alert de- fensive work. The Big Blue line as a whole showed good defensive strength and at times showed an offensive drive that swept the Hornets from their paths. The Hornets were able to gain but five yards thru the Big Blue wall. During the first half there seemed to be a lack of coordination between the line and the backfield but during the second half this was smoothed over. The Hornets scored their points in the first quarter when Bell, right end, broke thru to block Lott’s punt. The ball rolled behind the Generals’ goal and Lott recovered. The visitors made no bid for a score after this play and were in the main on the defensive the greater part of the contest. The Generals played a conserva- tive game, attempting only six for- ward passes and completing three for an average gain of 20 yards, and depending mainly on off-tackle and cut-in end runs. Coach Herron’s well-conditioned, driving (Continued on Page 4) Troub Tryouts All men, experienced or not, wishing to try out for the Trou- badours will meet in first floor of Newcomb hall Monday night at 7:30.

Special trains have always run from Morgantown to Charleston, and the circuitous route travelled makes the trip itself hardly a pleasant experience. Mountaineer fans have al- ways supported the project, however, and the attendance at the games has justified the little trouble undertaken in securing the special transportation facilities. While there remains little possibility that a special will be secured to run from here this season, yet, if a sufficient number of students attend by other means, and a concerted effort is made next year to get the management of the athletic associa- tion to secure the train, there is no reason whatever to keep Washington and Lee in the “On to Charleston” march next their favorites’ battle on Laidley Field as do the Mountaineer fans. A train was chartered two or three years ago, upon written application of over a hundred students signifying their ‘intention to make the trip, but at the last minute a great many of them backed out, and since then no effort has been made to try the plan again. Let all students for whom it is possibble carry the colors of Washington andn Lee in the “On to Charleston” march next week-end, and let the making of plans start immediately. Prove to the people of that city that the Blue and White carries with it wherever it goes the united support of a large representative portion of the student body. SUPPORT THE FRESHMAN COUNCIL HERE are almost a hundred less freshmen here this year than at the opening of the 1926-27 session, according to advance unofficial figures, and in a like ratio the effort required to properly assimilate these new man and acquaint them with the traditions of Washington and Lee should be lessened. Such simple acts as speaking to everyone passed on the street or on the campus, being in rooms by ten o’clock, and the like, as directed in the list of Freshman Rules published elsewhere in this issue, should be rapidly and thoroughly installed into the freshmen as promptly as possible. Several years ago the so-called “iniquitous” system of “assimilation,” more frequently in those days termed plain “hazing,” whereby parctically the entire work of putting the freshman in his place on the campus and of properly acquaint- ing him with the ideals of this school was left to the members of the sophomore class alone. The abuses practiced under this plan were grossly apparent, however, and the executive com- mittee of the student body reorganized the system completely, depriving the sophomores of their powers under the then-prc- vailing system, and installing instead the present organization known as the Freshman Council. The council operates under the direct supervision of the executive committee, and its members are chosen irrespective of their class in the university. The rules have been codified and distributed where freshmen can have ready access to them, and punishment can be meted out only for violation of the regulations specified, and then only after a due hearing before Many Freshmen Took Psychological Exam Approximately 260 freshmen took the university psychological exams in the gym last week. These tests are given mainly for the purpose of getting a line on the training and background of the freshmen and have nothing to do with class grades. The men are classified from high- est to lowest to obtain the relative position that each man occupies in his class. This list is given to the professors and the clean so they can get some idea of the ability and intelligence of the new men. In cases where there is doubt about admitting a man, he is re- guircd to take a psyhological test at home under some responsible per- son, anrl this determines whether or not he will be admitted. Eight years ago Columbia uni- versity initiated the idea of giving psychological tests to freshmen. Since then, practically all colleges and universities have adopted the plan. The tests have been given at Washington and Lee for the past five years. All men who did not take the psychological examination when they first arrived will have to take them within the next week or ten (lays. The date will be definitely an- nounced later. ;4_()__.__ HONOR ROLL Semester and Session Ammerman. R. C. Bloch. S. A. Butler, H. H. Cayce, H. L. Coleman. A. R. Davis, J. P. Dix. D. S. Graves. E. S.

Dining Hall Now Breaking Records The University Dining Hall, operated by the Washington and Lee Athletic Association and under the active managership of T. P. Stearns, is operating to capacity, feeding the largest number of students in its = history. The dining hall, which, together with other enterprises run by the Athletic Association is help- ing necdy students work their way thru school, is this year offering employment to twelve men. 115 men are being fed by the Dining Hall this session, with the best possible food consistent with good dicties as the managerial policy. Improvements have been made to service and equipment and all in- dications point to a most prosperous year, according to those in charge. 0 DR. GLASGOW NOW GRADUALLY IMPROVING Dr. Robert Glasgow, who has been ill since mid-summer from complications, is gradually improv- ing, and now feels better than at any time during his illness acording to the report of Dr. C.

Garrison, editor-in-chief for this year. The first issue will be entitled the “Opening Number” and this theme will be followed throughout. Quite a bit of material is on hand now for this issue, but Editor Garrison emphasized the fact that contribu- tions are needed and welcome. Art features by “Dud” Carr, Har- ry Cooper, Marion Junkin, Frances French, A. P. Bondurant and J. B. Ecker are promised. The staff has not yet been selected in full. W. A. Plummer will be managing editor this year. Announcement will be made later of try-outs for the editorial staff, which will probably come next week. George S. DePass, business man- ager of the “Mink,” reports that over 650 subscriptions have been obtained. Advertising is being secured rapidly, and it is thought by the editor and manager that a 82 page magazine can be issued this year instead of the 28 pages carried last year. Manager ‘DePass has let the contract for the printing to J. P. Bell and Company of Lynch- burg, while the Lynchburg Engrav- ing Company will do the engraving work. Approximately 1500 copies of the first issue will be distributed. Wrestlers Begin Practice Monday Coach Mathis will issue his first call for Varsity and freshmen wrest- lers Monday afternoon at 4 o’clock. The veterans will meet every day at this time upstairs in the gym for one hours practice and the new men will meet at the same place at 5 o’clock for their workout. Heretofore both squads have been working out together but due to the large number of men out for the teams it has been necessary to sep- arate the squads. Material for the Varsity from last year’s team is scarce and every man interested in wrestling, experienced or inexperienced in mat work, is urged to come out. The first month of practice will be used in getting the men in condition and to develop them along the lines of wrestling. Both Varsity and frosh have heavy schedules ahead of them and due to a season which starts a little earlier than usual —— around Christmas — all men available are wanted as early as possible. __i()__ Intra-Mural Grid Games To Be Held Intra—mural football, enjoyed every fall until last year, will again hold its own in campus interest this fall. Coach Smith announces that train- ing for the inter-school event will begin Monday in preparation for the games’ which will be scheduled later. Tucker Hall barristers, engineers Reid Hall and scholars from the lib- eral arts school will all prime them- selves in an attempt to wrest the honors from the commerce students, victors in 1925. All men except those out for var- sity and freshman teams are eligible. Those in charge are expecting keen rivalry and hope to uncover some good material for future varsity use. Further announcements will be made shortly. _._.__0___ Yost Resigns As Michigan’s Mentor Fielding H. (Hurry-Up) Yost, for 25 years head football coach at the University of Michigan, has resigned from active coaching duties for the coming season and will devote his entire time to administrative work. This announcement was made recent- ly at the initial meeting of the 1927 varsity football candidates. Simultaneously with his announce- ment concerning his temporary re- tirement from active service, Yost named Elton Wieman, for several years his first assistant and at pres- ent assistant athletic director, as head coach of the varsity. First High (School Gridiron Casualty The first casualty to appear in the ranks of high school football occur- red last week, the same day in which George Rice of Sewanee died, when Clay Holley, 17, of McComb, Miss., died of injuries sustained in practice. An operation revealed that Holley was suffering from internal hemorrhage. He was said to be a brilliant player on the McCommb High School football team. N2; SpFo1Tsli seilléidilig Arranged For Fall By Athletic Department A “Sports Schedule” has been arranged by the Physical Education: Department for all students in the University interested in athletics. The idea of this plan is to give every one a chance to take active part in some sort of supervised exercise. Among those listed are football, basketball, cross country and tennis. These so-called classes will run until Christmas and any freshmen or sophomores attending will be ex- cused from regular gymnasium class- es until then. Following is the schedule and the dates on which each sport starts: Football varsity—on Wilson field every day—Coach Herron; freshmen ~on Wilson field every day—Coach Davis.

Concerted Cheering ' Adds Color To Game Under the leadership of cheerlead- er, Bob Pharr, ‘the trimmings to today’s game ware a great success. The new assistant cheerleaders per- formed their 'part ably. Though the entire band was unable to be present, those who were there played every creditably for an initial performance. The freshmen sat together in one section. At the half, under the generalship of the cheerleaders, they marched on the field, cheered, and formed a clean cut monogram. Several of the old yells, which of late years had been discarded were revived by Pharr, among -them the famous “Rah Ray Rah Ree” yell. “W & L. Yell, Yell.” __0____ Lee F rosh Club Holds First Meet The first meeting of the year of the Lee Frosh Club was held last night in the basement of the Epis- copal church. This club, sponsored by the Y. M. C. A., is composed of all first year men wishing to help the Y in it’s work among the young- er boys of Lexigton. The meeting was in the form of a rot-together, with supper served by the ladies of the church. Last year’s president, S. F. Hampton, welcomed ihe fifty freshmen present, and an- nounced that any other new men who are interested in the club’s work are urged to join. Short addresses were made by Dr. Churchill Gibson, rector of the church, on “Fellowship Groups,” C. W. Gordon on “Boy’s Work,” and R. H. Walker, Jr., on “Hi-Y in Lexing- ton.” These were explanatory of the purposes and ideals of the club. Each member was urged to follow up his interest in one of these topics by associating himself with the par- ticular group that does it’s work among the boys of Lexington. The time of the next meeting will shortly be announced, and all freshmen who are intendented are urged to become affiliated. ~—0 Albert Sidney Crew Holds Fall Practice The Albert Sidney crew, anxious to avenge its defeat of last year, has taken to the water for light fall practice under the direction of Captain Garvin. Captain Pierpont, Harry Lee leader, does not intend to issue a call for his men until real work begins next spring. Only the returning veterans of the three Albert Sidney boats are now engaged and no new candidates will be considered until the call is issued next March. It is not known just how long Garvin intends to keep his men working, but it is probable that he will take advantage og good THE RING-TUM PHI Unique Class Is Meeting At W. <5” L. Perhaps the ever held at Washington most unique class and Lee this year Sat- urday mornings at seven o’clock. The class is one in metallurgy. and is conducted by Dr. James L. Howe, dean of the school of science. The class was not originally scheduled for this hour but con- flicting schedules among its five members made it necessary that tflsy . :l{ this unusual hour to hold {Ire 2’ sting. The early class is causing siderable comment among the stu- dents, fearing that the practice may become general at later sessions. 0 “Beau Geste” Opens At New Tuesday For Two Day Show One of the greatest exhibitions of human bravery ever depicted on the screen is a part of the thrilling mys- tery story of the French Foreign Le- gion, “Beau Gcste,” which makes its appearance at the New Theatre Tuesday and Wednesday. One episode graphically shows the fearless refense by 40 legionn— aires of a fort in the Sanhaarra a desert outpost, against hundreds of Touaraegs, nomaadic desert bandits who are among the best warriors and finest rides in the world. It shows Sergeant Lojaunc, enacted by Noah Beery, “the cruelest beast and bravest soldier” in the Legion dom- inating the battle. It depicts him taking the fallen men, w'e(lginp; them into the I'ort’s emhrasures and prop- ping their rifles in lifeless hands to deceive the enemy. Fighting to the last man, they re- fuse to surrrender. Ronald Colman appears in the title role of “Beau Gcste,” which was directed for Paramount by Herbert Brenon. In addition to Colman and Beery the featured players include Alice Joyce, Neil Ilamilton, Mary Brian, VVilliam Powell, Norman Tre- vor, Ralph Forbes and Victor Mc- Langlan. - is meeting University every Tuesday, Thursday and COTT- 0 Big Enrollment In Advanced Chemistry More men have registered for quantitative analysis this year than ever before in the history of the chemistry department of the uni- '»/Cristy, according to an announce- ment by Dr. L. J. Desha, professor of the chemistry department, yester- day. The enrollment of twenty—fivC men in this advanced chemistry sec- tion is much more significant than the larger number registering for the freshman course, because chem- istry is required of freshinen in the academic school. Many of the ad- vanced studcnts are taking the work in preparation for the study of medi- cine, Dr. Desha said. ___M0_~_ Morrison And Ould Assist Cheerleaders Graham Morrison and Ed Ould were elected assistant cheerleaders at the rally held in the gym last nite, Freshmen startc-.d the eheerin_2;' at 7:30, with the old men joining in at 8 P. M. A fcw new yells were re- hearsed, and n‘ost of the old ones made their de‘.>ut with the new men. Captain Tips of the football team, Fitzratrick, tackle of the Blue and White and Spotts varsity end, made short speeches asking for the support of the student Body in all athletic events of this year. After an hour of lusty yelling the rally broke up with the old “Gener- als' yell,” and a prornise of great supprrrt for the Figlitingg‘ Generals on the field this fall. ,,,,0___ Bailey Out With Bad Broken Ankle A second ex-ray of “Buck” Bailey's ankle revealed the fact that he had sustained a broken bone instead of a. severe sprain as it was thought at first. The Generals’ stellar end was k:~pt out of the contest Satur- day a','ternoon against Lynchburg and will be unable to participate in i the anzzual affair against the Moun- taineers on Saturday. “Zero” Bear, who is suffering from a sprained ankle will be back on Wilson field Monday afternoon in practice; however, he will not take part in the heavier drills until pro- ba >ly after the West Virginia affair, allowing plently of time for his in- jury to recover. 0 Brilliant Cus Judge—-“Thirty days—” Speeder--“Oh I know Thirty days hath that one!

The Generals ga;:. —l 272 yards thru out the game, wlnle the Hornets were able to gain but five yards thru the Big Blue line. The longest run of the game was Lott’s dash thru a broken field for 35 yards in the first quarter. This soon afterwards resulted in a touch- down, scored by White. The game proved a practical one in bringing out the rough spots in the Generals’ play, and will pro- bably serve in a great measure in prepping the gridders for next week’s test with West Virginia. Captain Matt Grant of the Hornets was the outstanding performer for the visitors. Grand did the punting for his team, besides heaving the passes. He was a real triple threat man, and with a stronger team would have shown to better advan- tage. Bell, rightend, played a steady game, and his work in get- ting down the field under the punts was especially outstanding. The Sydnor brothers also played stellar games. In one or two spots the Hornets displayed a determined spirit and inpenetrable defense, particularly in the thll ? quarter, when they held the Generals on the one yard line and took the ball on downs. Generals Kick Off. Lott kicked off to the 10 year line to start the game and C. Sydnor ran the ball back 10 yards before being downed. The first play of the game was a lateral pass but the Generals were alert and threw the back for a one yead loss. A forward pass from Grant to Rardin netted 25 yards and the Hornets only first down of the game. Sanders failed to gain at left tackle. A forward pass was incomplete. On a fake play from punt formation Dalton lost two yards. Grant punted 25 yards out of bounds on the Washing- ton and Lee 26 yard line. Lott punted on the first down for 40 yards and Sproul downed Grant in his tracks. Grant lost four yards on a sweeping left end run. Grant then punted 35 yards to Lott and the ball after be- ing downed was on the Generals’ 44 yard line. Lott failed to gain thru right guard. From punt formation Lott skirted right end for 35 yards, sidestepping several would-be tack- lers and showing brilliant open field running. Barclay failed to gain off left tackle. A pass from Lott to Spotts netted 20 yards and then White crashed thru left guard for 7 yards and the first touchdown of the season. Lott place kicked for the extra point. ,Dalton peturned Lott’s kick:-off five yards to the 20 yard’ line. Grant punted 40 yards to Lott who was downed in his ‘racks by Bell. Lott’s punt was bloc .:d but he recovered the ball behind his own goal line, resulting in a safety for the Hornets. Rardin caught Lott’s kick-off on the .;~; yard line and Captain Tips down- ed him after he had run the ball back to the 34 yard line. A for- ward pass failed. Sydnor failed to gain thru Fitz- patrick. A forward pass, Sydnor to Bell, was completed for a gain of seven yards. Another pass was batted down. Grant then punted 35 yards to Lott. On a sweeping right end run Lott gained nine yards. White went thru center _for a yard and then off tackle for five yards and first donw, and again hit right guard for three yards. The quarter ended with the ball on the Washington and Lee 36 yard line. Pass Nets Touchdown On the first play of the second quarter White gained two yards thru right. guard. Lott then punted 35 yards to the Lynchburg 36 yard line. Stearns intercepted Grant’s pass and ran 23 yards to Lynchburg’s 24 yard line. It was a pretty bit of broken field running. On a criss e‘-‘-.~s play Lott was thrown for a two yard loss on the right side of the line. A pass from Lott to Spotts was in- complete. Barclay then made a shoe- string catch of a line pass from Lott and ran 15 yards for a touchdown. Lott’s place kick was blocked. Late in the second quarter the Gen- erals made a bid for another touch- down and rushed the ball to the 1 yard line. White and Lott were the principal ground gainers in this rush. On the next play White fumbled and a Lynchburg gridder recovered. Grant then punted out of danger. The half ended with Coach Herron’s Blue and White gridders in posses- sion of the ball on Lynchburg’s 22 yard line. Fisher kicked off to C. Sydnor at the start of the third quarter and Lynchburg was penalized 15 yards for holding, placing the ball on the‘?/[any Changes In , 12 yard line. Grant kicke dto Howe on the first play the Blue and White backs were in motion and a penalty of 5 yards resulted. Eberhart failed to gain at the line, but Howe gained three yards ofl’ left tackle. Eberhart was thrown for a three yard loss and then a pass from Stearns to Spotts netted 21 yards and a first down. With the ball on the Hornets 25 yard line, Stearns went thru the center of the line for three yards. Howe picked his hole thru left guard and reeled off a 10 yard gain and a first down. Stearns added three yards thru center, Howe bucked left guard for three more, and then Gene White took the ball over for four yards and first down. The play was off left tackle. The ball was then on the two yard line and two thrusts by White at right guard and then at left guard, respectively, were thwart- ed without a gain. Stearns gained one yard off left tackle and White then took it over for a touchdown. Captain Tips failed to kick the ex- tra point, making the score 19 to 2. Following Fisher’s kick-off, C. Sydnor failed to gain on a fake kick. Grant fumbled on the next play, and Captain Tips recovered on the 34 yard line. Eberhart then showed some flashy broken field running, sidestepping and straightarming his way for a 23 yard gain around right end on a criss cross play. Two plays netted no gain and then Eber- hart circled right end for nine yards to the two yard line. R. Sydnor broke thru the line to tackle White behind the line of scrimmage for a twr yard loss, and the ball went to the Hornets on downs. Howe returned‘ Grant’s punt 15 yards and in so doing showed some fast head work and speed, cutting in thru seven Lynchburg would-be tacklers. The remainder of the quar- ter was marked by two attempted but incomplete General passes. Long Runs -Feature After an exchange of punts, in the last quarter, White, behind pret- ty interference by Stearns, reeled off a 23 yard gain thru right guard. On three plays Gene added a first down and then Stearns and Howe accounted for another first down, Bob netting 10 yards off left tackle on a criss cross play and taking the ball to the one yard line from where White took it over for a touchdown. Lott dropkicked the goal for the extra point. Riley kicked off to Lott who ran it back to the 30 yard line. Howe fumbl- ed but recovered and gained a yard off right tackle. A penalty of 15 yards for holding was dealt the Generals and Lott punted 40 yards and the ball rolled out on Lynch- burg’s 46 yard line. Snodgrass, on the first play after replacing Lat- ham, who played a consistant and steady game at center, broke thru the line to throw Saunder for a three yard loss. Barnett knocked down an attempted pass and then Grant gain- ed two yards on a fake punt, going thru the center of the line. Lotts was downed in his tracks after re- ceving Grant’s punt. From punt for- mation Lott circled right end for two yards. Stearns went off tackle, pick- ing his hole weel, and gained 11 yard and first down. Summary: W. L.
