YELLOW JACKETS SAY

Contest on Saturday Will Probably Decide Eastern

That They Are Ready for Hard Battle.
[Speclal to The Tlmes-Dlspatch.]
Ashland, Va., November 10.?Ran
dolph-Macon Is talking, singing, hoping,
thinking of nothing else these days
except the game on Saturday wlth
Hampden-Sldney. In Rlchmond. The
team of Yellow Jackets has been grad?
ually develop. d, and according to stu?
dent oplnlon, hns plenty of reserve
power as yet untouched.
lt this estlmate be true. it is certaln
that all the strength of the squad will
be concentrated ln Saturday's game.
Thc team is in good condition and ls
worklng falthfully and hard. Rlch?
mond will see a hard game. Is tha
promise of the players. .lust what the
outcome wlll be only time wlll tell.
Rootlng practlce is being held every
night in the college chapei, under the
directlon of Chlef Rooter Nolley and
hls assistant, Wiliis. The entire stu?
dent body wlll go to the game.
Reports from Hampden-Sldney say
FEARED DEFEAT:
E
Such Is the Explanation for Call
ing Off Contest between A. &
M. and W. & L.
Great is the indlgnatlon among the
student body of Washlngton and l_ee
Universlty over the cancellatlon of the
gamo wlth the Agricultural and Me?
chanical College, of North Carolina.
whlch was scheduled for Roanoke on
November _. In the current issue of
Uing-Tum Phi, tho weekly magazine
? if the universlty. are two edltorials
ileallng with tho cancellatlon.
ln the oplnlon of tho edltor of Ring
Tum Phi there was little excuse for
cnlling the game off Tho real cans.
for refti-trig to play seems to be that
the Washlngton and T.ee team was ln
such a crlppled condition as a result
o? tho game wlth V. P. I. thnt defeat
appeared inevltable, and the student
members of the executlve committee,
Athletlc Association, decided that it
was netter to doclare the gamo off than
to play wlth defeat certaln.
Slx of tho varsity men would liave
beon out of tlio contest, and substl
tutes would nocessarlly have been
used. Al n suhsequent meetlng of tho
student oxecutlve oonimltteo of the
Athletlc Association, each member of
the committee declared himself as
opposed to rancelling the game, hut the
orlglnal action wns not resclnded. in?
stead, an appeal was made to the
faculty athletlc commltteo, whieh body
decided ln favor of thc action taken
by tho student committee.
Rlng-Tum Pln asks edltorially
whether all .ames nre piayed to wln.
"Now, ln passing," says the edltorlal,
"do wc* play only to wln? Wlnnlng ls
nood. better than lu..ng; but defeat
is sweeter to a true sportsman than
a chlldlsh loss by default." with
whlch Bentlnient all true sportsmen
will agree. It seems n pity thnt Wash?
lngton and Lee should deelnre openly
that a game was cnnccllcd because
defeat seemed a result.
The only one r loeming feature of
the whole affalr is that the student
body wns and Is heartlly opposed to
any such action. It seems certaln thal
there wlll be no rocurrenco of such
action. The A. anrl M. wlll Im flnan
clally relmburaed for any outlay in
preparlng for the game.

A sllght change hns been nintle ln
thn ncl)cdulo of games of thn Rlch?
mond Bowling Assoclatlon. whlch was
recontly organlzed for the purpose of
fosterlng bowling ln Rlchmond. The
flrst game wlll be played on the. New?
port Alleys on next Tuesday nlght, as
prcvlously announded, but the Jowolors
say that they aro not ln condltlon to
meet thc strong Tlmofi-Dlspntch team
nnd so the Meat Packera wlll bo tho
flrst aggrcgatlon led to the slaugh?
ter. Of course, the Meat Packors wlll
tell you that lf thero is any slaught
erlng to bo done they wlll be doing
lt, for that Is thelr regular Hne of
business, but "there's many a slip"
especially on a bowling ailey.
As a matter of fact It Is really sur
prlslng to see tho nmount of Interest
inanlfcsted ln theso games. Thero
were some skeptlcs when thc assocla?
tlon was belng formed. but now slncc slx
teams have come out and slgnl
lled thelr tntentlon to nght for the
trophles oTfered untll the last horn
blowa, a number of men have come for?
ward who are anxlous to be trled out.
A trlp to Btiffalo ls one of the Induce
ments offered, and hundreds are
anxlous to be members of the cham?
pionshlp team whlch rtlchmond wlll
send to the national tournament. Whlch
wlll be held ln that clty next yenr.
In addltion to the honor whlch comes
wlth belng n member of the team wlll
be thc opportunlty offered to make
some money. as the prizes at tho na?
tional meet are not to be sneered at.
The officlal schedule of games fot
the new assoclatlon has just been
formulated. This schedule calls for
three games a week. and the teams
have been well matched. Some high

VIRGINIA EXPECTS TO
DEFEAT GEORGETO WN
Gloom of Past Few Days Gives Way to Air of
Confidence?Team in Very Good Con?
dition for Game.
[Special to The Times-Dispatch.]
Charlottesvllle, Va.. November 10.~
College Topics, the oftlclal organ of
the General Athletic Association of the
Unlverslty of Virginia, predlcts that
.Virginla will defeat Georgetown Sat?
urday by two touchdowns. "The indl
cattor.s are," says Topics, "that Satur
day's wlll be the Biggest Georgetown
exourslon ever run,' as 400 men wlll
make the trlp. Everybody ls confldent
that Virglnria wlll wln after a hard
llght."
The team held its flnal practice thi.
afternoon, before a crowd of specta
tors. Thc gloom of the past few days
gave way to an alr of confidence, and
coaches and players went about their
work wlth much enthuslasm. After a
long slgnal practice, tn whlch all of
the various plays to be trled Saturday
were rehearsod time and again, tho
varslty llned up agalnst the scrubs.
The regulars wero given tho ball ln
thc. mlddle of tho Held, and in slx
plays took the plgskln across the goal
line for a touchdown. Further seriin
mage was engaged ln, but there was
no more scorlng. Captaln Geyer and
Varner started in at the tackle posl?
tlons, hut thelr places were taken by
substltutes. llewltt and Flnlay altor
nated at left end. Two sets of backs
were tried and a. third followed tho
play up and down the Held. Wooti
lasted' through the scrlmmage at cen?
tre, tlesplte the fact that ho llmped
badly. Mollada.y wlll no doubt be call?
ed upon to play the posltlon during
a part of the game. lie has .recovered
from hls Injury and looks to bc in
good shape.
?The players, are all pulllng for a
dry Held, which they say wlll bo thelr
saivat'lon. The return of Captaln
Geyer lo hls old ? position at rlghi
tackle wlll serve to brace up tho whole
llno. and the men cannot figure oul
just how tho backfield wlll be hold In
check by Goorgetown's line.
Honaker, Todd and Drlver have aboul

After havlng seen Cecil spooner s
performance last nlght ln "Tbe Sword
ol the Klng." it ls easy to credlt her
, statement thnt thls ls her last season
1 ln populnr-priced plnvhouses. and It is
I hard to Understand why she has given
I so much of her acting llfe to what
i mlght ba called soubrette parts. For
I whlle tlie company. an a whole, did
not altogether measure up to the re
: ciuircinents of'tho plece, Mlss Spooner
gave a most tlnlshed and artlHtlc per

It wns apparent that tho audlence
j did not altogether care for the play.
' It ls a far cry from a modern melo
| drama laid ln' the Mldclle West to a
! Htrulght play of the ruffllng days when
I Bloodv Jeffreya was hanglng every
I unfortunate haled before him. and
1 Klrk's Lamb.- were saving hlni a great
i deal of trouble by swlnglng up hun
j dreds without Judge or jury, when
! the Stunrt was totterlne on hls throne.
! and William of Orange was helplng
' htm lo tott.-r. and the house was not
enthuslastlc, to say the K-ast. Ncver
theless. the plece was well stagecl. and,
for the most part, fairly well played.
Some of the company were not easy
ln thelr llne;<. but lt was thelr rtrst
performance. nnd much must bc for
given.
Phlllp Leigh. a recruit from muslcal
comedy, gave an excellent performanc.
of a French gentleman adventurer, an.l
Joseph Mannlng was fairly good as
William of Orange. but Cecil Spoonel
was whollv delightful as a charmin.
and thoroughly fascinating comblna
tlon of "A Lady of Quality." "Dorothy
' Vornon." and the. heroine of "When
Knighthood was ln Flower," wlth th?
vlrtues of all of them and none ol
thelr faults. As a tinild glrl or as 8
swashbuckllng boy, she was most at?
tractive, and her work was of a high
order.
The play wlll be repeated to-night
and Saturday matinee and night "Tlu
