into a tallyho. which ?u pulled by j

The team as a whole came through
ths Vender bllt contest In good shape. '

tackle near the close of the game,

breaking up the interference on an <
and run.
According to Trainer Lannigan. no'
Virginia team la recant years baa put i
up such a fine article of ball aa did;
Elliott's warda on Saturday. In making
this statement Lannigan does sot ex
cept the showing made by the team
three yeara ago. when tbe Navy was
vanquished. That season the Orange
sod Blue had such Stars as Tancey.
?Stanton. Geyer and Elliott. In Satur?
day's game Vanderbtlt ones had the
ball on Virginia s one-foot line andj
could not carry It across In four
trials. In the first period Virginia ad- ?
vancad the pigskin strslght down tbe J
field to Vanderbilt's eight-yard line,
where a try for field goal failed. Later
in the same quarter Coole ?rot near
?nuugn to Vauayg goal to utteuipi
another goal, no ntuub to discredit
the statement that the eleven lacke
' power.
All of tbe players returned home
full of confidence la the team's ability
to take the scalp of Georgetown two
w??,ks ti<.<nee. They seem to have no
doubt about the outcome of that gumc
one of the men stated to-night that
the Blue anj Gray- comd be downed,
even with Captain liagarty in tue
line-up. "And he will be able to pniy
against Virginia all right." the player
added
In responae to a notice posted by
Captain Todd. all member* of the
s<iuad who did not participate in the
Vanderbilt contest reported for prac?
tice this afternoon in less than three
hours after the team's return from |
Nashville. Some of those who played
la the final period Saturday donned
uniforms, thus showing the fine spirit
possessed by the men. Tbe practice
lasted for a little over an hour, the
work assigned the players being very
light
To-morrow afternoon the entire
squad will begin preparation for ths |
Georgetown game. ai:d though* the
work will be strenuous, care will be
taken to prevent further injuries. It
is possible that some of tbe playa
pulled off by Vanderbilt will be tried
out, ard in case they look govd. will
be attempted against the Blue and
Gray. One thing is certain, the utmost
harmony exists among the players,
end the men hsv* but one idea in
view, and that it to wipe out the de?
feats sustained at tbe hands of
Georgetown the past two years j
In the Wake of the Game
_By GUS MALBBRT_
No victorious army of the Bulger*
returning from a slaughter of Mos?
lems wu ever more warmly welcomed
than were the warr en of the Uni?
versity of Virginia upon their return
from defeat at the itands of Vander?
bilt on Saturday. Jubilations seem to
be the order of the aay at Charlottes
vtlie and not without reason. Ths
sorry showing of the eleven In previ?
ous games, together With the glow'ng
reports of victory, which had come
from tbe camp of the Commodores had
led both coach and men to tbe belief
that Virginia would be swamped by
Vandy. To the gratification of all the
Orange and Blue held their husky and
well-trained opponents well In * hand
and made victory foi them a death
struggle rather than a triumphant
procession.
While all this was going on In
Nashville. Georgetown was bav'ng its
troubles h?re in Richmond. .Carolina,
likewise proved something of a sur?
prise, and for halt of the game held
the Hilltoppers to a S to 3 tie. each
being able to score a field goal. Bat
Georgetown paid heavily for ths
thirty-four points wh ch were made In
the lest half. Captain Hegarty eras
so crippled that It '?? improbable that
he will participate in another gams
this season. Petrix, who had taken
nhsinschilCTs place at left tackle, was1
also crippled, and It will take some
time for him to get back In shape,
though he fa not aa badly off aa
Hegarty. In view of tbese two in?
juries, tbe extent to which Georgetown'
waa forced to go to ein. and tbe won
derful improvement of Virginia, an
Orange and Blue victory against j
Georgetown Is now regarded as more
than a probability. What adds to thej
general good feeling is the fact that
Virginia suffered to injuries In the
game.
Virginia has no game scheduled for
Saturday. Maaager Sheppard Crump.
Of the Blues baa been offered a game
In Chariotteevllle for Saturday, tut t*
compelled to take all the risk. The
University management is willing ta
offer no guarantee, but will give thej
Blue* the gate receipt*. In view of the |
fact that but 176 were taken In fori
the Norfolk Blues game, while the ex
pesse of making the trip will be IIS?,
tbe Blues'are inclined to turn down
taw oaTer unless enough people can bei
taPm along from Richmond to swell the
reeaipta Aa attempt will be made
to run aa excursion to Char lottos vtlle
aad take a large proportion of the
battalion along. The run can be made
ta three or four boars and will furnish
a Jelly outing for the soldier lads. The
alt sun Is In prims snapo. and is anxi?
ous to tactile Virginia It w new
merely a question of dc liars and cent*.
A same has been arranged with
Tlandolph-Macon tor gaiu/ttay, "tbvera

On that same date J.icbmond College
will play William and Mary at
I Broad Street Park.
Richmond Collage, by the way. seems
to have taken a new lease on its ath?
letic life. Things bad gone to a rather
iow eDo wnen ur. Boatwrigh't. pres?oent
of the college, and several other
I members of the faculty took an
active Interest and in an unofficial
capacity began spreading words of
! cheer among the men. As a result the
men took a brace, and with the posi
I live support of the atudent body, mad*
j an excellent showing against Hamp
< den-Sidney. There ia no question but
I that the eleven is improving. The
punch baa been lacking in tbe attack
; heretofore, but gradually this Is be
! lug remedied, aad before Baadolph
Macott Is met ia tbe final same of the
; season the Spiders hope to win.
Dr. Boatwright ia particularly enthu?
siastic. -w? raaalaa,** ha said, "that
j we have a good team?a team which is
improving, and before the season Is
j over we will win games. The men
j are beginning to take notice, and the
\ student body is a unit in supporting
j the team. Right now we are oa even
terms with Randolph-Macon. aad are j
getting better all of the time."
j This manifestation of interest on the
j part of the faculty is solas to work
: wonders in the team, and la solas to <
make for a college" spirit, which ha*
been sadly lacking. There ia every!
1 reason for the faculty taking Interest;
in athletic*. Aside from the first con- i
siderstion. which is and should be the
physical improvement of tbe men par?
ticipating, and through this physical
improvement a stimulation of mental
activities, la the added advantage!
accruing from the advertising secured- I
The larger untversttiea aad colleges j
have long since come to a realisation j
that winning teams in whatever branch j
of athletics help the school by giving 1
It a prestige which could not otherwise \
. be obtained. The new* from Richmond
College is as gratify las an It Is rasa- i
sums, and ths hundreds of friends of I
the local institution will be glad to I
leant that athletic* will now be estab
| liahed In tbe Spider household upon
I a Srm aad aar* foundation.
( From the Medical College of Vir?
ginia comes a plaint that the corre?
spondent of The Times-Dispatch at
Blacks burg furnish od a misleading re?
port of the same with the Techs on
??turter. IlMwber? v published s
letter from ihr. wtmwx president of
the General Athletic AwMtttlob, which
explains the situation frost the stand?
point of the Medicos, ho far as as
are concerned a* would do nothing
to take away one bit of ths deserved
praise from the local eleven. They
won. ai:d from what we caa learn, won
because they had the batter team. In?
cidentally, every man on the team Is
i ellgtole to play with the exception of
Htugepeth,' wno played professional
baseball last season. ?
Clark Griffith la worried over his
catching department, say the Washing?
ton scribes. Henry has a bad knee,
which doesn't seem to respond to med?
ical tieatment. Ainsniltb Is down
South trying to get well, and it U
hinud that he has a touch of tuber
cu.os's. This leaves only Waplam*
upon whom Griffith can depend.
I In a very few days Horace Fogei
will be given an opportunity to either
j prove or disprove his charges sgalnst
i the president and umpires o. the Na
I tlonal League. Likewise the question
I as to whether the league magnates
j have any Jurisdiction in the matter
i will be settled They meet December
11?.
i We have a communication from L- H
j .laves, of Union Level, complaining o>
j an article printed in the Sporting Sec?
tion of The Times-Dispatch relative
to the open and closed season for hunt?
ing game in ths State of Virginia. In
hia communication, Mr. Hayes states
that we say ths "time expired on No?
vember 10," and that "the hunting sea?
son cloaed February 1ft." We can find
neither of these statements In the ar?
ticle referred to. It was prepared for
, The Times-Dispatch by L. T. Christian,
j secretary of the Virginia Gsme Pro?
tective Association, and gives In con
? de need form ths general laws as to
j what same may be shot in certain
! sections of tbe Stats, and when the
l season closes for hunting such games
J or fowls Mr. Hayes says hs is un
I able to find any of the provisions quot
: ed in tbe "Acts of Assembly** for 1*13.
If be will write tbe Secretary of the
Commonwealth for a little pamphlet
entitled "Game and Fish Laws of Vir?
ginia" he may learn something as to
the open and closed season, and that
the article in question is not a "hoax
to prevent country people from hunt?
ing." but valuable advice to keep all
prospective huntsmen out of ths toils
of the hnw by violating the games laws.
