Snap. Vim. Vigor. Charm. Beauty. Color.: Collegiate. These phrases but half describe the “Football Number” of “The Mink”, which appeared on the camp- us this morning. The issue is being sold at the game this afternoon and has al- ready attracted much attention and comment since its appearance. All subscribers will find their copies in the Post Office immediately after the game. “Snappier than ever” was the ex- pression of those who saw the sec- ond issue of this year’s University humorous magazine. The cover is skillfully carried out in four colors, resembling crayon work. A blue and white checked background, which is very appropriate for Washington and Lee’s. “Big Game” today, has sur- mounting it the fac—simile of a football with a beautiful girl’s head in the center. A small pennant in the corner carries the words “Football Number” and the title of the cover is “Triple Threat!” The cover was drawn in colored crayons by Leonard Glover, ’31, and reproduced in a special photoche- matic process by New York on- gravers. Cluett, Peabody Company of Troy, N. Y., printed the cover. The entire body of the magazine is printed in dark blue ink, also a very appropriate idea for the game today. The contents reveal very clearly the immense amount of work WASHINGTON AND UNIVERSITY, SATURDAY, NOV.S, 192T King Football Reigns As Lexington Celebrates Two Great Grid Battles lAre Co-eds Human Beings Is Argued two girls at Northwestern Univer- sity cision was rendered, both sides hailed themselves as victors. The follow- ing points, among others, were cited: For the co-eds: We are human because we are intelligent; if not, we could not make our boy friends spend their week’s allowance on a week-end date; we are also aesthetic, —just watch any co-ed apply her cosmetics; and we have a soul or our eyes wouldn’t sparkle when we walk across the campus with a foot- ball hero. Against the co-eds: They are not human for they exist without hum- an necessities, such as food, shelter and clothing. They live for a year on prune juice, stay out all night and as for clothing they are like olives and one has to cultivate with difficulty a taste for them. "We are intelligent,” said the girls, “because we can deceive the president who does not think We smoke on the campus.” “They are dumb,” said the boys, or they would smoke on the cam- pus.” Katherine Hicks and Louise Star- key argned for the Co-eds and Rob- ert Howlett and Robert Hicks, brother of Katherine, upheld the af- l‘irmative.—(A.P.)

Manager DePass has organized his entire business staff remarkably well in regards to getting out the issue today, and its distribution both 'at the game and to subscribers will‘ be attributed to this. The issue will also be placed on newstands here and throughout the country, and is expected to attract wide attention. CAPT. “BICK” CARDWELL “Bick”, playing his last year with the Virginia gridders, has been showing up well at tackle all season, and will probably face Fitzpatrick in the line this afternoon. His home is in Han- over, Va. - Scattered to distant points—many ‘of them have travelled miles to ‘gather today on old familiar cor- ners and in dlmly—remembcred tryst- ing places to recall numerous inci- dents hallowed by the passing of time. They are here with a keen anticipation of seeing their team, spurred on by a thus far successful season, gain full retribution for the calamity suffered last November at Charlottesville. It is useless to begin to name all that are here. Since last Monday they have been drifting in an(l yes- terday saw the first large influx. Today their numbers have increased until it is now estimated that the reunion exceeds by far that of any previous years. A few of those that were regist- ered Friday can be mentioned here: Sam and Phil Lauchlin, West Va.; ;Robert Hobson, Louisville; John iBell, Tampa; Sam Engleman, Mont- lgomery; Leon Harris, South Caro- llina; Millege Mail, Memphis; VValtcr ,Bootay, Portsmouth, Ohio; John lEdmondson, Memphis; “Cy” Young, lelena, Arl:.; ville, Va.; “Pup” Glover, Carolina; Carlton Jewett, Richmond; Philip Gibson, Huntington; E-Beall, Helena; and Otto of Richmond. ~——0 Confidence Marks Camp of Generals The Generals of fl’:-f) gaine. opinion as the final result ll"l<::-7pl'1L‘l'(‘. of the entire camp perience. iVirginia’s strength and are nothing for ;.>;1'ante(.” “Captain Dick” acteristically: . night.” !

Monogram Club Dance Tonight i It is on the day of the king’s coronation. King football ascends to his lofty throne today in Lexing- on. Thousands of lowly vassals ‘bow to render homage unto him. I All the any-accounts, no-accounts, and discounts are here. Some are flecking their ashes into the recep- tacles provided by the local hotel; some are combing their hair in the bespeckled mirrors in the frater- nity houses; others are sleeping, two in a bed in the dormitory, thereby lproving that two’-in-one means some- ‘thing besides shoe polish. ‘ Everyone is happy — and if he isn't will be before sundown,—be- cause celebrations will be in order for victor and loser in the great game to be played this afternoon. Tickets may be procured at The Corner or at McCrum’s Drug Store for those whose minds have been so occupied on celebrating over last Saturday’s results that they have neglected to provide themselves with the necessary pasteboards. A tremendous crowd is expected at Wilson Field this afternoon by the officials, and suitable arrange- ments have been made to accommo- date them. Parking will not be per- mitted on the field, and only a limited number of machines will be allowed to park on the hill below the field—house. This will be en- forced both during the game, and later tonight during the dance. Youth is so expressive, and should not be crowded. It will be a ques- tion of first come, first served. A great many of the out-of-town cars will be parked on the V. M. I. parade grounds during the fracas at 11 a. m. and will remain there for the day. This idea is recom- mended to facilitate traffic handl- ing. It has been especially requested by Captain Dick Smith that no students or townspeople use their machines today. Give the visitors a chance. Ever since the original University of Virginia student and the original Washington and Lee man argued over the comparative greatness of their two patron saints, Washington and Jefferson, there has been con- tentions between the two schools. Ten extra policemen under Sergeant Deering have been placed on duty to help in any arbitration that may be necessary today. Both gates to Wilson Field may be used and the Virginia section, com- posed of the permanent stands, will be ushered by the boy scouts. Across the way the Washington and Lee stands will be rendered color- ful by the occasional red and green dots afforded by the little hats of the Pi Alpha Nu and White Friar goats, who will serve as ushers for that section. A. E. Mathis, super- fntends the ushers. Both schools will have their bands very much in evidence and much music is hoped for. A great many groups from out- side schools are expected to witness the battle, as Augusta Military Academy, Danville Military Acad- emy, Greenbriar and Harrisonburg High are expecting to have a goodly number of spectators present. The court is ready. The throne is prepared. The gates will open promptly at 1:30. King football is crowned this afternoon. Long live the king! LEAVE CARS HOME Students and townspeople are earnestly requested to refifain from using their machines ;-;to- day and to leave them parked at home. This will facII.tate the handling of the large crowd a great deal. FRESHMEN By order of the Freshman Council, all Freshmen will be allowed to stay the full time at the dance tonight; however, they will have to wear green ties and green socks as heretofore. _,, . ,. all time.

P. “PAT” HERRON Herron, while in only his second year as coach at Washington and Lee, has produced the best team the Blue and White has sported for some years, if not in proteges opponents both within and without the conference, have tied West Virginia, and have lost only to Princeton, rat- ed as one of the best three elevens in the East. His ob- jective this afternoon is to scuttle “Greasy” Neale’s have conquered . Coach NO. 14 Pe§;1l:1\\/{list Stop And Allow Engine The Right-of-way A rule of conduct for automobilists and others who cross railroad tracks was laid down recently by the Su- preme Court in a case appealed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. In setting aside a judgment in favor of the estate of Nathan Good- man, killed at Whitfield, Ohio, the court, through Justice Holmes, de- clared that “when a man goes upon a railroad track he knows that he goes to a place where he will be killed if a train comes upon him before he is clear of the track. He knows that he must stop for the train, not the train stop for him. “In such circumstances, it seems to us, that if a driver cannot be sure otherwise whether a train is dangerously near, he must stop and get out of his vehicle, although obviously he will not often be re- quired to do more than stop and look. It seems to us that if he ,relies upon not hearing the train or any signal and takes no further pre- caution he does so at his own risk.” The court announced it laid down this rule of conduct for the control of all courts, “Once for all.”—(A.P.) m0__._____ Brand of Play In Intra-mural League Improves The improvement in the brand of basketball, displayed in the intra- mural league, is surprising, accord- ing to the officials in charge. Dur- ing the early weeks of training “Cy” Twombly’s proteges showed a form that was far from polished, but now after several weeks of play in the league each team has developed a smooth ofiense and an equally effective defense. Team work seems to be the key note of most oflthe play, though in- dividual stars are not lacking. Each of the seven squads is fight- ling hard for the handsome medals to be presented the individual win- ners of the league champions. Less than a month remains until the final standing will be issued. Coach Twombly sttaes that at the close of the present league, a race similar to the one in football will be held between the various schools of Law, Commerce, Academic, Fresh- men, and Engineers. This league will be under the same direction as the present football race. A list of the men on each team and the standings including games of Monday is as follows: Team 1—Bowen (Capt.), McMillan, Barron, Smith, Holden, Busold and Lowrie. Team 2—Hardwick (Capt.), Leibowitz, Fleece, Clay, Beard and Crane. Team 3—Trail (Capt.), Mc- Kenzie, Leverett, McComas, Street, Freeman and Mahler. Team 4- Gordon (Capt.), Towler, Hill, Gil- lock, Williams, Tarrant and Davis. Team 5—Wilcox (Capt.), Bashwitz, Robertson, Brown, Sikes, Kaetzel and Parker. Team 6~Scott (Capt.), Patterson, Bowes, Thrift, Edmond- son, Simmons and Sutherland. Team 7---Gwaltney (Capt.), Tyler, Rufi, \Vagner, Halpern, Levin and Cal- hirn. __j0m_._ Tickets F or V. P. I. Came Ready Monday Smith Announces Tickets for the V. P. I.—Washing- ton and Lee game will go on sale Monday morning at the Co-op and the Corner according to graduate manager R. A. Smith. The tickets will remain on sale until the end of the week. It was also announced that there are a limited number and all those intending to make the trip are urged to purchase his ticket as soon as possible. All tickets will be $2, no student rates being made. A special train is to be run leav- ing Lexington Saturday morning and reaching Blacksburg, the scene of the battle, in time for the game. The train will leave after the game ar- riving at Lexington some time early ‘Sunday morning or late Saturday night. m()_____ Four Students Visit Hospital. There were four students in the Jackson Memorial Hospital during the past week: H. W. Gwaltney, W. C. Drewery, F. L. Smith, and W. C. Wagner. The only one of these men still in the hospital is W. C. Wag- ner. RALLY DRAWS 500 STUDENTS AND ALUMNI Herron a11d “Bullet” Silverstein Speak to Students; Freshmen Parade Town With Band. Five hundred students, alumni, and visitors attended the student body rally held last night in Doremus Gymnasium. The W. and L. band was present, and opened the rally with a selection. “Ed” Ould, head cheer leader, next led a number of cheers. Ould then introduced Coach “Pat” Herron. Coach Herron thanked members of the student body for their support in the past, emphasizing its great im- portance on the morale of the team, and then stated that the old Wash- ington and Lee tradition of beating Virginia could be realized if the students stood behind the team. Ould next introduced “Cy” Young, one-time sixteen letter man, and captain of four major sports at Washington and Lee. Young stated that he had never seen a Virginia team beat W. and L., and that he had come back for the game this year with the belief that his record would not be broken. He then stressed the influence on a team of a supporting student body. He said that an overconfident student body caused an overconfident team, but if the students stood behind the team he had no doubt as to the result. A collection was next taken up to send the band to Blacksburg for the V. P. 1. game. Ould then in- troduced “Bullet Joe” Silverstein, captain of the Generals in 1918. Silverstein explained the psychologi- cal efiect of a student body sup- porting the team in the right spirit. He closed his talk by asking the students to go to the grandstands with the purpose of helping the “Fighting Generals” beat Virginia this year. Ould and the assistant cheerlead- ers introduced a number of new yells to be used today, and after the “Swing” had been played by the band the rally was adjourned. The freshmen assembled outside the gym- nasium and from there marched through the town, led by the band and the cheer leaders. mom 8,000 SEATS READY Fans attending the Generals- Cavaliers battle this afternoon will find about eight thousand seats available. The new bleachers hold 4,000, the grandstand 2,500, and the end bleachers about 1,500. CAPTAIN “HORSE” TIPS Tips, All-American mention last year, has so far improved over his 1926 form that he will probably secure a berth on the All-Southern this year. His work has stood out in every game.

WELCOME, VISITORS ASHINGTON and Lee will be host today to what will probably be the largest crowd of visitors ever here to? witness an athletic event of any character. The annual gamel, with the University of Virginia never fails to provide six ofi eight thousand persons with entertainment for the afternoon,l but, with Virginia Military Institute playing North Carolina University in a homecoming affair in the morning, and with the Generals—Cavalier battle also carded as a homecoming event, between ten and twelve thousand people from outside Lexingtonl seem assured. This campus will have the opportunity to make many new friends before nightfall, and it is hoped that the conduct and spirit of the entire student body will be such that this desired result will accrue. illaliy of the visitors have never been in Lexington before, and are attracted here by one or both of the greatest games in the South Atlantic area.

Viigiiiia, although losing by seven touch-l downs to Tennessee, did not keep its regulars in the lineup- throughout the game, and some of them who were being saved} for today’s fray did not see service at all. ‘ Rumors aside, no oacls appear to justly lie on either team, and,} while the dope on the surface appears to favor the Generals: to win, only a rash man would back up his contention with any kind of a one—sided argument. {I v I I L THE LAST WORD WHETHER or not the Generals are successful in their attemptl . 7,. . . l to turn back the invading Cavaliers this afternoon and avenge the upset which resulted in such a decisive victor‘ for: a ‘Y ‘ Virginia last year, students should renieniber the dance re rulaw 3° I tions when they enter the gym tonight for the Monogram} Club dance.

Old faces, marking the return of Alumni were recognized on the cam- pus yesterday and today. The hearty handshake and the greeting smile prevailed on the campus and in the fraternities as old and young Alumni returned to their Alma Mater for Homecoming Day. Approximately 1000 Alumni have returned to Lexington today to re- new friendships and to support the Generals in their annual clash with Virginia. A formal luncheon for 300 Alumni will be held in the new Alumni headquarters today to cele- brate the formal opening of the new club rooms. Judge E. C. Caffrey, ’09, will be the principal speaker, and several other men will be heard from in short addresses. Col. F. T. A. Jun- kin, of Chicago, will be the guest of honor today. Reservations for rooms at the Alumni building have been so num- erous that the house is filled to capacity. Other men are being ac- commodated at the hotels, private «homes in town, and at fraternity houses. Alumni have returned from 20 different states, ranging from Florida to Texas and Missouri to Massachusetts. Recent arrivals include John Bell, ,'21; S. M. Engelhardt, ’09; L. W. Harner, ’15__-_ J. S.

The chief reason for the Freshman victory was the failure of many of the Varsity men to re- port for the meet. Accordingly, the Freshmen were awarded five for- feits, which aided them materially in gaining their total number of points. These meets have been very in- teresting. A number attended the one _.,held Thursday. Coach Mathis is rapidly molding both squads into shape, and they should prove formid- able opponents for any of the teams on the intercollegiate schedule. Mo__.__ Miller Asks F rosh Help on Bridge A meeting of the Freshman class and transfers was held in the gym- nasium Thursday night. The meet- ing was called by the Executive Committee of the Student Body for the purpose of discussing the fin- ances of the Memorial bridge, which was started by the class of 1927. E. H. Miller, president of the Bridge Committee, gave a short talk on the advantages of the new bridge, and asked for the co-operation of the new men in financing it. W. J. Dorsey then explained the plan of contribution, asking that each man give $50.00, the initial payment of $10 to be made this year, and the remainder during the succeeding four years. Short talks were also given by Francis Harvey, Freshman class president, and B. B. Tips, captain of the football team.

Here is the second step: LEARN TO CRAM, rapidly, in- tensively, completely, whether you will remain a permanent expert or not. The student who can take a pile of textbooks to his room and by a fierce all-night grind become a temporary expert of high grade on a wide and com- plex field of human knowledge has learned more, has acquired a better training, than is repre- sented by half the diplomas handed out Commencement Day by his college or university. 0 Ribbon Society At Florida Takes Its “Shines” Too Far The officers and initiatory com- mittee of the Serpent ribbon society of the University of Florida were asked to resign their positions last Monday by President A. A. Mur- phree, because of “outrageous con- duct” of some of its number in public recently. The Serpent Society is an ancient: social organization at the Gaines-l ville institution that corresponds to; White Friars and Pans on the local‘ campus, and one of their most an- cient rites is that of initiating their pledges between the halves of the football game on Homecoming Day. Last Saturday between the halvesl of the Mercer-Gator game the Ser-1 pent pledges were sent upon the field clad only in dainty feminine undergarments, as has been the custom for years, to put on their little acts and to go through char- acteristic and appropriate shines. as per directions, but instead of leaving the field as they should have done when their time was up, someone crabbed the act by trying to disrobe some of his fellow-suffer- ers. This clever little idea spread and in a moment all of them were trying to render each other nude, and some of them were more or less successful before they could leave the field. 0 ACCOUNTING CLASSES ENROLL LARGE NUMBER Approximately 165 students are now enrolled in the accounting classes, under the direction of Pro- fessor William Coan and Mr. E. H. Howard. A two hour laboratory period has been installed, replacing a part of the home work formerly required, which gives the professors more op- portunity to supervise the work of the classes. “BABE” SPOTTS W. and L. boasts of the South’s greatest athlete in Spotts and one of the greatest gridmen to ever parade a Southern gridiron in its versatile wingman. ‘cetera, have been taken back home lweeks ago, and the fraternity “goat” ‘finds himself being hauled around by ‘eyes of the “dear brothers” can get F£é.sDizmen Raking Leaves Instead Of Living In Roses “Comes a day”—as movie subtitles would have it—when the days of freshman glory are no more. That day, strange as it may seem, appears to come with the falling of autumn leaves. And therein lies the tale. Rushing season has long been over. Cadillacs and Packards, et “old men” in delapidated and collegiate flivver wrecks—if he is fortunate enough to ride at all, Which most of them aren’t. The proverbial “goat meetings” have not yet warmed up in full swinging blast. So, until the batting back into true hitting form, there must be found other tasks with which the “elusive frosh” can occupy himself. To the falling leaves of late Oc- tober, which drift slowly but surely across a sunlit campus and down Lexington’s long lanes into fratern- ity house yards in huge quantities, the Greek neophyte finds himself turning. It is by command—not by‘ any choice of his. But, somehow,‘, he feels that it will be better if he does it quickly and well. Intuition is a valuable thing sometimes. Es- pecially, in a case like this. Into huge drifts and swirling piles, then, does he find himself raking for dear life the gold and scarlet sym- bols of a waning year. Unfortun- ately, there is no beauty in them for him. They are to him what the “big ones” that must be made into “little ones” are to the black—and— white striped convict. They are his ball and chain. Curls of billowy blue woodsmoke fill the streets and avenues of the college town at dusk. The pungent odor of burning leaves lends a wineyl taste and tang to the autumn air. Sundown sees the scarlet-orangel flames twinkling in the leafy piles. I And still the echo rings through’; This they did in an orderly manner, lthe Streets and Over the campus: “Rake that yard, freshman! 1” He does. And how! ! Success Ofosoph. 1 Cotillion At Stake ‘ Says President, l The success of the Sophomore) Cotillion Thanksgiving depends on the support of the members of that class, President H. L. Williams, states. It is imperative that all men in the class pay their dues as soon as possible in order to put the (lance over. The (lance will be held Friday dur- ing the holidays, and the figure is to be led by President Williams, and all inoinbors may participate. Ross Gorman, master of symphonic syncopation, and his orchestra will furnish the music. This is the only (lance of the year that the sophomores, as a class, are able to give, and the outcome of it depends solely on the support rend- ered by the students of that class.

What choice bits of juicy, delectable scandal may be spread abroad over a steaming cup of tea. It has been learned from reli- able authority that one certain member of the administration of VVashington and Lee univer- sity is a regular tea imbiber at the residence of one of our fair- est Lexington belles. Further- more it has been made extreme- ly evident in the past that this same dignitary has been quoted as distinctly against drinking of all kinds. Can there be no justice? Perhaps a romance may be born of this custom of afternoon tete-a-tetes. Who knows? But when a very reserved gentleman on the faculty of a conventional university, begins to become a habitual visitor at a particular home, Dan Cupid is mighty like- ly to draw his bow. Students may wonder just how much this official learns about the out of school activities of students as he leans across a bridge table, his face gleaming like a full moon through the mist of steam arising from his delicately poised teacup. .___0_____ Payment on Bridge Due; $7,000 Needed] \ A total of $25,000 has been pledg-i ed to the bridge fund, according to the secretary of the Alumni Verbon Kemp, but to date only $6,400 has been submitted to the treasury. Of this $4,000 has been turned over to the contractors, and as a $7,000 payment is now past due, Mr. Kemp urges that all subscriptions be paid up as soon as possible. “I hope the freshmen class will assume their responsibility in this matter, and will turn in their sub- scriptions at an early date,” he stated.

Championhnip At Stake; Weight of Teams Equal. The rivals of rivals clash on Wil- son Field this afternoon when the Generals of Washington and Lee and the Cavaliers of Virginia renew their annual feud. The fact that the championship of the stat'e de- pends on this struggle and that a Virginia team has never crossed the goal line on the Washington and Lee field add to the_determina- tion of the players. Between 8,000 and 10,000 cheering fans, a typical Homecoming crowd, will fill both the temporary and permanent stands around the grid-, iron. The student bodies of both: Universities, old grads, and foot- ball enthusiasts in general are mingl-, ing to make the most gala occasion-l Lexington has ever seen. " Although the Blue and White re-‘, cord is more impressive than that. of Virginia, the experience of last. sason proves that dope is worth-1 less. Picked to win last year, the Geenrals were baffled early in the game by Virginia’s pass attack and when the final whistle blew, were on the short end of a 30 to 7. count. Washington and Lee has to its credit victories over Maryland, Ken- tucky, Duke and Lynchburg, while the Cavaliers are bidding for the state championship with trimphs over V. M. I. and V. P. I. in spite of their losses to Georgia, South Carolina and Tennesee. Maryland has decisions over the two military schools which gives Washington and Lee a slight mathematical advantage. Coach Herron has been drilling his men throughout the week on defensive play. His main attention has been given to breaking up the Virginia aerial attack which spelled defeat for V. M. I., and V. P. I. Coach “Greasy” neale at Charlottes- ville has also spent the week trying to curb the overhead game of the Geenrals. While the air route has been the source of many Washing- ton and Lee touchdowns, a running attack by a versatile set of backs is the Blue and White’s most dan- gerous offensive threat. The Generals emerged form the Maryland game without any serious injuries. Tommy Stearns received a charleyhorse from a vicious tackle and Fitzpatrick got a bruised should- er, but both injuries are of a minor character and the men will start in their regular positions this after- noon. Reports from Virginia indicate that it is doubtful whether or not Flippin and Turner, varsity ends, will be in the game. Flippin was hurt in the V. M. I. game while Turner received his injuries last week in Tennessee. The average weight of both lines from end to end is 181 pounds per man. From tackle to tackle, how- ever, Virginia has an advantage of about three pounds to the man. Both Captain Caldwell and Luke, veteran tackles, weigh close to 195 pounds, while Fisher and Fitzpatrick‘ who handle these positions for the; Blue and White, tip the beam at 192 and 193 respectively. Daniel and Symmington, who hold down the guard‘ positions for the Cavaliers, weigh 205 and 180 respectively, in comparison to Captain Tips’ 187. and (Continued on Page 6) HUNTER FAULCONER Halfback, who may be replac- ed by Close in this’afternoon’s FROSH DEFEAT oi/l.s. FRIDAY TOOPEN GAMES Military V Yearlings, Who Win Handily ‘.18-0. A powerful running attack with Faulkner, Thibodeau, and Jacobs carrying the ball, ‘gave the Little Generals an 18 to 0» victory over» Greenbriar on Wilson Field yester- day afternoon. Throughout the con- test,‘ Washington and Lee carried the fight to the West Virginia boys and the outcome was never in doubt. The Little Generals’ a stone wall, as only‘two“of Green- line proved briar’s five first downs were made by rushing. The prep school boys iithree first passes, but had five more of their heaves intercepted by the alert Blue and White secondary defense "to counteract this" advantage registered downs on in the third quarter when Jacobs dashed through the center of the Cadet line, cutacross to the side- lines evading the Greenbriar safety man, and ran 55 yards for a touch- down. ed. ‘ ington and Lee’s first score when a bad Greenbriar punt wentoutside on the Cadets’ 33 yard line. Two plunges by Jacobs netted seven yards and Faulkner’ made it a first down on Greenbriar’s 22 yard marker with a smash through center. Faulkner added seven‘ more around right end and Jacobs drove through the line ‘for another first down on Green-. briar’s ten yard line. ‘Faulkner made four more and three plunges by Thibodeau carried the ball over. Thibodeau’s kicked was blocked. Ilnthe final quarter after Jacobs had intercepteda Cadet pass and returned it to the Greenbriar 42 yard line, Thibodeau made 11 yards in three plays for a first down. Thibodeau and Faulkner gained six yards in the next two rushes, but Thibodeau was thenflthrown for a yard loss.‘ On the fourth down with five to’ -go, Jacobs tossed a 15 yard pass to Williams for a first down closer with a dash around left end, and Thibodeau bumped center for an additional five yards. Faulkner smashed ‘through for a first down on the two yard cross-strip and carried it ‘over in two attempts. Again the try for extra point failed. Faulkner, Thibodeau, gained steadily through the line and around the ends. Faulkner’s twist- ing cut-backs through tackle, Thibo- deau’s plunges, and Jacobs’ steay gains and accurate heaves were a Lads Outplayed by W. & L. The real,thrill of,,the game came.

New Headquarters Welcome Alumni Returning alumni today will find the Alumni Headquarters incorpor- ated in its new offices and ready to receive all visitors. A new sign, erected yesterday on the sidewalk in front of the build- ing, informs the alumnus that he is welcome to the club rooms and .lounges, and to come in and make himself at home. Verbon E. Kemp, alumni secre- tary, has been at work on the building all fall, and has outfitted it in a most attractive way. This fills a need for a suitable alumni headquarters, which Washington and Lee has felt for a long time. All offices of the Alumni Assoc- iation and of the Alumni Magazine are located in the building, which is situated in front of the Lee Mem- orial Church in the former quarters of the Lee Memorial School of Jour- nalism. 1 I The try for extra point fail-, The way was paved for Wash-' on the Greenbriar 18 yard marker. ' Faulkner brought the oval four yards ' and Jacobs I snagging passes. Groop, Stillwell, ‘ and Faulkner played well on the A defense. 3 For Greenbriar, Winters was the whole offensive show until a vicious tackle by Faulkner slowed him up.

Until 1922 the clashes were at more or less irregular intervals, but since then have become the annual feature game of both schools. The Orange and Blue of Charlot- tesville had things pretty much their own way according to old records, with the Cavaliers triumphing over the Blue and White in six out of the seven battles previous to the resumption of the serious in 1922.
