"That a great deal of bidden money may

New York, Oct. 11—In announcing Its
plans for the Inauguration of n telegraph
service to compete with the Western Union
and the !*o*tal, the Telepost Company prom
ises a flat rate without regard to distance
of tweuty-flve words for 25 cents on tele
grams delivered by messenger, and 25 cents
for fifty-word wire nin**t*'<ii delivered at
destination through th** malls. At these
rates the new cointm:!/ expects to make
an average profit of 14 cents tier iiifisagc, ns
gnlnat n act profit earned by the Western
nlon nnd the 1’ostsl of only 4 cents at
their higher • rates, lint under heavy capi
talization and expensive methods of opera
tion.
The principal economy Introduced by the
clepost Company Is In the nse or the
►elnny automatic transmission nnd re-
•Ivlng apparatus. The mechanism Is oper
ated by perforated tapes which can be
fed to transmitters at a rate that gives
one wire a capacity about fifty times greater
than can he obtained by the manual sys
tem now In general use.
Wnrned by the fate of earlier Indepen

"I don't see why we have not on

fully. “They may have something we
don't know about. But I can't feel that
way about It."
"Can you see that they have any
thing on us. Boh?" asked the coach,
turning to Captain Blake.
"Can't say that 1 do," replied Bob. “I
think that we ought to do about as
well as they do."
"It the guard, and halfbacks on de
fense will go Into their opponents so
hard that their knee pane crack to

"I wouldn't for the world hove any

them to go Into the game with an aw

It was a severe disappointment to
Don MeGugln that hls men could not
ret In a good practice at Ponce De-
-eon Thursday morning. They arrived
In Atlanta In good time, and while
team was at breakfast Manager Palmer
chased off to get a wagon to haul the
suit cases containing the uniforms to
Ponce DeLeon. But, alas! the Commo
dores' private car had been yanked to
some remote part of the yard and was
not accessible.
So when the Commodore* reached
Ponce DeLeon they found—thanks h
the courtesy of the Georgia Railway
and Electric Company, a Reid, a dress
ing room, a nice wnrm fire, plenty of
shower hatha—and no uniforms.
Finally the attendants tilted out the
crowd with the home uniforms of the
Atlanta club and the players went out
In them. An attempt was made to get
Sherrill off In Jim Fox's clothes, which
would have been rather rich because
Sherrill Is built like a tub and Jim like
a drink of water. But Sherrill saw
the Joke and passed up the uniform
proposition to a large degree, taking
hls exercise In a decidedly abbreviated
outfit. Some of the sartorial combi
nations were pretty fierce, but a» the
park Is secluded that cut little figure.
The few who went out to the park
saw little. Alt MeGugln did was to
run hls men a couple of times around
the big Held and then send them back
tc the dressing room. They walked
back to town when dressed and then
toqk their car. The team left about
noon.
A crowd was down at the station to
see the team off, and the bunch drew
the best
cranks.
MeGugln announced that he wool,
start against the Navy with Stone at
center. Sherrill nnd King at guards,
Hnaslock and McLain, tackles; Blake
brothers, ends; Coeten, riuarter; Craig

Knoxville, Tenn.. Oct. 11.—Couch
George Levcnc, who has been oiling
the University of Tenneexec football
machine this season, ha* done wonders
with the men he found on the ground
when he arrived from Pennsylvania.
He found the youngsters heavy enough
and reoaonably fast, but not capable of
S laying together In any sort of form.
[e had a decidedly large Job on hls
hands and went at hls work at onee.
Light work only was handed out at
first, but each succeeding day saw
something added to the schedule. Work
got harder and harder until now thirty
minutes of stiff scrimmage does not
feaxe a man on the team.
Wednesday afternoon, after signal
practice had been running for thirty
minutes, the Volunteers lined up
against the Bakcr-Holnel prep team
for fifteen minutes. Nothing could
gain over or hold the older lad*, and
several touchdowns were reeled off In
short order. Then when the lads had
enough, the "seconds" were rung In
and suffered similar treatment for
twenty minutes. No rest was allowed
the 'varsity between halve* and yet the
last play* were as snappy us the first
ones.
The forward pass worked nicely and
seldom failed to gain good distance.
McCollum, who Is at right half, l.< de
veloping into a drop-klcker of marked
ability and he will undoubtedly score
this season If hs gets within striking
distance of the opponents' goal.
Athens Expects Hot Game
With Tennessee’s Team
ttpeclal to The Georgian.
Athens, Oa.. Oct. 11.—Tennessee
romes to Athens Saturday for a game
with Georgia on Herty field. The
Knoxville team 1* reported a, being
very strong this year and a lively
game Is expected.
Last year Tennessee Journeyed to
Athens, and, though clearly outplayed
and really outclassed, drew a tie game.
Time and again Georgia swept down
the field to the 10-yard line, there to
lose the ball on downs or by fumbles.
Tennessee's punter would then kick
far down the field out of danger, and
the work had to be don# over again.
At present the two teams are sup
posed to be SO per cent stronger than
a year Bgo.
Reports from Tennessee's camp have
not contained much Information, but
still Justify the opinion that the latter
team will make a strong bid for cham
pionship honors.
In rolling up the largest score In
America Saturday. Georgia's team
came off the field with a number oi
cripples—Napier and Roman are badly
bruised, while Woodruff and Harman,
both of whom were put out of the
game, are barely able to be up and
doing. Maclaln’e shoulder Is also in
bad shape.
In the contest Saturday George But
ler will referee. An umpire will be
selected later In the week.
i'lperlul to The Georgian.
Davidson, N. C„ Oct. U.—Fall base
