From Ches tertown, the Cadets will move on tc Chester, Fa., to engage the rival adets of the Pennsylvania Militan , College. This battle will be staget omorrow night. State Title An Issuq The result of the game at Chester town probably will be the turning point in the race for the State Inter •ollogiate title for the year. Neither 3t. John's or Washington has suffer ed a defeat at the hands of compet ing State teams so far. The rivalry between the two col leges which are the oldest in the State waxes warm at all times and the con test should be hard fought, especially since the Maroon and Black is smart ing over the football victory gained in the fast half-minute of pluy by the Cadets last fall. On past performances Tom Kibler'i charges should le returned the win ners, for they have been on a win ning streak and have annexed eight games in succession. Victories over’ some of the lest college quintets in the South stand to the credit of the Chestortown lads, while they were de feated only once, this time by Navy after a hard-fought battle.
