Seventeenth Infantry at To nee DeLeon 968 p a rk Saturday afternoon. The players will bo put through a long signal drill, as the team Is mostly in need of team work* Lieutenant Devore, of the Soldiers, is wasting no time in having his players in the best of shape for the fray. 'Phe I infantry boys will rely on the wide open game, as in Swart* they have one of the best forward pass tossers in the South. Time and again Swart* threw the oval with deadly accuracy against the cavalry last Saturday, and Devore thinks if th» Soldiers can get away with a couple of touchdowns against the All- Stars they will have a chance to bag the game. In Btngle, the Soldiers have another reliable player He is also a great place kicker and Is dangerous anywhere with in the 40-yard line. Devore has had Idm practicing all week and it would not be surprising to see him ge »ple of scores away the air ite. MEDIUM WINS DERBY. WAYNESBORO, OA„ Dec. 5. Happy Medium, handled by F. C.

Morrison and Me* Whorter will probably be the backfiekl that will start against the Soldiers. Gardner aim Majors at ends. Mea dows and Lamb at tackles. Means and Peacock at guards, and Pitis at cen ter will probably he the line that will open against them. With this aggregation of stars, the Hardage eleven should certainly be able to put up a mighty hefty scrap. Billy Papke Signs to Box Chip on Jan. 12 CHli AOO.
