Following another light work-out yesterday, Coach Fisher announced definitely that team B would start tomorrow against the heavy Florida eleven. Barring a last minute shift, the line-up will be Fitts and Gordon ends, Hobson and Greenough tackles, Anthony and Kunhardt guards, Bradford center, Spalding quarterback, and Rouillard, Hammond, and Churchill backs.
The Florida squad of 23 players will arrive this morning and will work out in the Stadium early this afternoon preceding the regular University practice. Coaches Kline and Van Fleet are accompanying the squad as is Dr. A. A. Murphee, president of Florida University. A four-foot alligator is also being brought along as a mascot.
Lost to Furman College
The "Gators" have played four games this season, losing the opening contest 7 to 6 to Furman College. Following that defeat the Southerners took a decided brace and have not since been scored upon. They won from Rollins College 19 to 0, from the Florida Legion of Tampa 14 to 0, and last Saturday ran almost at will through the Howard eleven for a 57 to 0 victory.
Not having met any real opposition since their opening game, the exact strength of the Florida team is still a matter of doubt. Dixon, a 205-pound backfield man will do the punting, and it is expected that the visitors will resort to a kicking game followed by an offensive chiefly of forward passes, although two of the backfield men showed marked ability last Saturday as broken-field runners when once loose.
The visitors' line will outweigh the Crimson forwards by several pounds. The two ends weigh 200 and 185 pounds respectively. Gunn, who at center is perhaps the outstanding player in the line, weighs 195 pounds and is six feet six inches tall. All seven linesmen are well over six feet in height.
