Miami 19; Elon 0. And that’s not a prophecy, it’s a fact. Just like it’s a fact that the U.S. will enter the war in August, 1942. And just like it’s a fact that the RA.F. cadets won’t be in England for Christmas and that Frankie Herbert, will get a “D” in poltiical science.

Hurricanes Oppose Elon In Opener Friday Night
The sophomore-loaded 1941 edition of Miami’s hustling Hurricanes will give football fans a first-class preview of its prospects for a successful season tomorrow night at 8:15 in Burdine Bowl, when Coach Spike Harding’s white-clad grid warriors tackle the Fighting Christians of Hon College in the
season’s opener.
ON TO TAMPA
The perennial petition is being circulated for the first time this year. Students are seeking the administration’s okeh on class cuts for Friday and Saturday and its assistance in securing an excursion special to Tampa for the game next week end.
The instigators of the campaign found that without the sanction of the University officials the railroad will not run a special.
As things stand now the administration’s thumbs are down on the Tampa trip. Foster Alter, student counsellor, yesterday gave the administration’s stand on the matter. He said that it is difficult to dismiss a school of 1200 students for two days so that 300 could go to a football game. However, rumors that absences would he considered double cuts is unfounded.
Another stumbling block is that at the present time military movements make it difficult for the railroad to supply the best of equipment for a student excursion.
In spite of gloomy prospects the student petitioners will continue their campaign. “On to Tampa!”
One-Act Tryouts Set For Monday
Tryouts for three new student plays will be held Monday, Oct. 6 at three o’clock in the Theatre.

Big, heavy, and experienced, the North Carolina eleven will boast a well-rounded running and passing attack, according to Hurricane End Coach Freddie Frink who scouted them in their 28-7 triumph last week over Western Carolina State Teachers. Spearhead of the Christian attack will be Jack Boone, an elusive halfback who gave the Miamians plenty of trouble during the first period of

last year’s 31 to 7 Hurricane victory. In the other meeting of the two schools, back in 1928, Elon chalked up a 21-18 win.
Handicapped by heavy and frequent rains and a sloppy practice field, varsity coaches Harding, Morris, and Frink have drilled their charges all week against Elon’s running and passing formations as staged by Eddie Dunn’s freshman eleven. There has been no actual scrimmage this week and little contact work, as Harding has eased up to eliminate possible last-minute injuries. With the sole exception of sophomore center Bob Nealon, the entire sqnad will be ready to see action in the opening encounter.
