PARCELS POST AND NEWPOSTALSERVICE Recommendations Will Be Made by Postmaster General. Washington. Oct. It—When Postmaster General George Von L. Meyer announced to one hundred miOtbara of the Federation of Trade Press Association nt the New Willard hotel last night, where he was n gueat at their banquet, that he would recommend no Increase In the rates of second-class mail matter, he touched a responsive chord. Among the many Interesting questions to be solved In connection with the postal sys teni of the United States Is the extension of the parcels post at a reduction of 4 cents n pound nnd nn iticrease In weight from 4 to 11 pounds. "That a great deal of bidden money may be brought to light and those people who nre In out-of-the-way places may have opportunity of depositing their earulngs. I propose to recommend the establishment of postal savings banks, which 1 pf pin#,- will result in Increasing economy nml thrift, Intend to ask for authority to place with national bonks the deposits which nre made lu these postal savings banks, nnd In tbat wily lend this stagnant nnd hoarded money Into the channel* of trad# for the mutual benefit of labor and enpltnf." W. U. AND POSTAL 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 dent telegraph ventures, ami to block ef forts alread;; made to buy up the Tela post undertaking, the company has given a majority representation on its voting Itoard of trustees to Supreme Court Justice John W.

VANDY IS CONFIDENT OF HOLDING NAVY "I don't see why we have not on even break with the Navy,” laid Dan MeGugln, the husky Vanderbilt coach, as he stood In the dressing room of the Atlanta baseball club at Ponce De Leon park Thursday morning and wait, ed for bla likewise husky charges to get on their clothes after their brief exer- clee Thursday morning. don't know,” said Dan, thought 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 gether,” said Dan, "and If when they trab their man they put hls nose down n the dirt so It bend, sideways. It ought not to take long for Us to take the heart out of 'em. "I wouldn't for the world hove any of my men do anything that is not legal under the football rules. But I do want them to go Into the game with an aw ful drive and rush mid I believe that they will do It. And if we can get the Navy on the Jump I believe they will have trouble In 1 Misting us.” 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 and Campbell halves; Morton, full back. In addition to this squad five subs were taken along, the list Including Hall and Souby as linemen, nnd WII Hams, Potts nnd Morrison as backs. BASKETBALL AT Y. M. C. A.

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.
