The Generals will journey to Lexington, Kentucky, this week-end, where they will meet the University of Kentucky Wildcats and at the same time make their debut in Southern Conference contests for this season. The Generals came out of the Princeton game in good con- dition and everyone is reported in fine shape. Due to inclement weather condi- tions Coach Herron has been forced to drill his men in the gymnasium and the opportunity for a scrimmage has as yet not presented itself. The Generals have been going through signal drill and practicing new for- mations, however. Weather permit- ting, the Generals. will take to the gridiron the latter part of this week and put the finishing touches on their play for the Kentucky contest. Although the Wildcats have not shown to good advantage in any game this season, reports have it that they are preparing to put forth everything they have in attempt to down the Big Blue team. The Gen- erals, on the other hand, are con- fident of their advantage and are determined to list up a decided vic- tory over the Bluegrass eleven. Captain Tips and his men are not under-estimating their opponents, however, and are preparing them- selves to withstand any indication of offensive attack that the Wild- cats may present. The Kentucky eleven has a fast backfield but the line has shown little strength. The Florida Gators paraded through the VVildcats front wall for 27 points last Saturday and two weeks previous to this game Indiana charged through the Ken- tucky line to gain at will and piled up a score of 21 points. On the of- fense, the Wildcats under Coach Gamage depend to a great extent on the forward passing attack. Jen- kins, star halfback on the Kentucky eleven, has shown good form and is the triple threat man of the team. Jenkins, Mohney and Portwood are the big guns of the Bluegrass eleven, and the hopes of the visitors will rest, in the main, on these three men. Coach Herron has been trying a new combination in the line and has shifted Groop to center and Streit has been holding down the guard position. Latham has been playing guard on the second team. It is not known, however, what line-up Coach Herron will use to start the Kentucky game. 0 Rain Postpones Intra-Mural Play The Commerce-Freshman game in the intra-mural football league which was to have been played Monday afternoon on Wilson field has been postponed until Friday afternoon at 3 o’clock. Steady rain for two (lays has left the field a veritable sea of mud, impossible for even the varsity eleven to practice on. Monday afternoon the Academic- Science team will engage the Law school eleven in the second game of the intra-mural schedule. Coach Palmer, however, is facing a very difficult situation in the lack of material. He wishes to impress the Law students with the fact that it takes eleven men to make up a foot- ball team, and would certainly ap- preciate seeing some more men out for practices. j__0____ President’,‘s Paragraph N0. 5 1927-28 THE FOURTH “R” The foundation of all education used to be called “the Three R’s” which were Reading, ‘Riting, ‘Rith- metic, now taught by thousands of trained experts to all the children of America. As urged by a recent author a fourth “R”, “Right-living”, or Right- eousness, is equally essential. Yet wc have never created or utilized such courses, college departments, or trained experts in charge of them. Hence our nation, while excelling in wealth and science and productive energy, is disgraced and cursed by and epidemic of crime and an- imalism. Let every future citizen add the “4th R” to his essential studies. ———~—0 What is that which is round at both ends and high in the middle? Ohio. ‘Past Performances of Future Opponents Gators Beat ’Tucky. The University of Florida Alliga- tors kept their Conference record clean by defeating the Wildcats from the University of Kentucky in Jack- sonville, Florida, last Saturday. The ‘final score was 27-6. It was a case of sweet revenge with the Gators who were out to avenge last year’s stinging defeat at the hands of the Kentuckians. The Floridians scored in every period except the second, and the lone marker for the Wildcats came in that stage of the game. Port- wood, quarterback and individual highlight for the losers, scored the touchdown for his team after re- covering a Florida fumble on their 29 yard line and bucking the line on successive plays for the remain- ing yardage. Middlekauf, fullback sensation of several years ago who has returned to the Florida fold, was the offen- sive threat of the Sunshine Staters, and his ability at blocking, tackling, and punting spelled defeat for Ken- tccky. The Generals are scheduled to meet the Kentucky Wildcats in Lex- ington, Kentucky, next Saturday, and the outcome of that contest will have a direct bearing upon the W. & L.-Florida game, to be played in Jacksonville November 24. TOT Gobblers Lose 13-7. The V. P. I. Gobblers, famed con- querors of Colgate, fell prey to the onslaught of the Old Liners from the University of Maryland in their annual classic at Norfolk Saturday, and lost 13-7. The Virginians led throughout the contest by the score of 7-6, but after a punt of 60 yards by Peake of V. P. I. in the last few minutes of the game, Roberts, a substitute for the Old Liners, raced through the entire Tech team for Maryland’s second touchdown, and kicked goal. 0__:_ Cavaliers Win 13-8. The Virginia Cavaliers played hosts to the Flying Squadron from V. M. I. at Charlottesville last Sat- urday, and defeated their guests by superior football, plus advantageous breaks, by the score of’13-8. Hut- ter, Cavalier fullback, crashed the Cadet line steadily for healthy gains and coupled with the passing of Close and Hushion, proved to be the “handwriting on the wall” for the Lexington outfit. Barnes, clever Cadet back, bore the brunt of the ofiense for his team, but could not cope with the excellent teamwork and overhead game of the Univer- sity men. _______()_____ GEN. GRIDMAN MARRIES LOCAL GIRL LAST APRIL Mr. and Mrs. John Edgar Taylor, the former a student at Washington and Lee and the latter a Lexington girl, have announced their marriage, which occurred at Bristol, Tenn., last April 4. The word of their marri- age came as a complete surprise to the many friends of the groom in the student body, and was just as much news to the townspeople of Lexington. Taylor, who is a junior in the school of science here, is from Mem- phis, but, with his mother, has been making his home here during the school session for the past two years. He is a prominent member of the Generals’ reserve football squad, and has made several of the varsity trips as substitute halfback. During his freshman year he saw much service on Coach Davis’ yearl- ing squad, and this year has been calling signals from halfback posi- tion on one of Coach Herron’s elevens. Mrs. Taylor, who before her mar- riage was Miss Hazel Steele, is a native of Lexington, and is a popu- lar member of the younger set here.
