Football Is the Big Game
Tech Defeats Grant Team
And Shows Improvement
The Tech football tram made It* third

i atrang Grant nnlvemity team of Clint fa-
noofo by a aeore of IS to 0,
Everything conaldered, the Terh ahowring
, was a highly creditable one. nnd the lurk-
era of the local team feel highly enrouraged.
though there la no doubt but that they are
worried over the prospect of tackling He*
wanee next Saturday.
The Tech team played to win Saturday
—but that was all. No attempt was made
to run up n high score. When Coach lug tho rushes
I Helaman left for hla trip to Georgla-Da-
* vldson game, he told Quarterback Hubert
• . to pluy hla team no harder than was n**o-
1 eaaary to win. It was realised that Grant
when it comes to handing out bouquets.
He took Davies' place In the line-up. and
filled It so well that the loss of the
der. nud he Is going to make one of the
other star was hardly felt. His running
with the l»nfl was of the moat brilliant
most valuable men ou the team this year.
The other buck-field men—Hubert, Sweet,
Hightower and Meaua-ft-yed brilliantly,
and It Is a certainty that Tech is going
to hare n strong team this year on the of

and there was seldom any trouble In hold
of the Grant backs.

Georgia Loses Opener, But
Team Does Notable Work
/Special to The Georgian.
• University of Georgia, Oct. 15.-—In
‘ her first game of tho season, which
I Georgia played here on Saturday with
; Davidson, fhe showed the probability
! of developing n strong eleven for the
| season; and, although she was defeat-
: ed by the score of 15 to 0, this does not
j Indicate her true strength.
The work of the "red and black"
throughout was wholly consistent, find
her men finished as fresh as when they
started. The team work was charm’-
. terixed by aggressiveness and a good
• grasp of the new rules.
This game was Georgia's maiden ef-
, fort this year, while her opponents hail
« been seasoned by two galies w‘th very
t strong teams, and the men composing
; the visiting team were much older and
• more mature than the Georgia men.
• In fact, of the thirteen men In the
' game for Georgia not over three or
: four are entitled to vote.
While the score was 15 to 0, only
: two touchdowns were acored by Da
vidson, and those only after every foot
. of the gridiron had been hotly contest-
‘ ed. The other points were secured on
! a lucky drop kick from the 80-yard line
; by Elliott, with fifty seconds to play
} In the last half.
It did not seem that either team
‘ was able to use the forward pass suc-
' coaafully. for in four instances, twice
by each team. It was attempted, aid
J In none of these cases proved to be a
■ ground gainer.
, No man was on the field whose tnck-
• ling could equal that of Thurman,
? Georgia's left end. Time after time
he broke through the Davidson line
. nnd downed the runner before he could
' get well started. Thurman Is In his
r first year at the university, and while
; rather light, is as fast as lightning. A
pluckier player hasn't been seen on the
Georgia field In years.
Fleming, at fullback, proved to be
by far Georgia's best ground gainer,
on one delayed pass he gained 20
yards, charging through the line near
center, passing every man on the Da
vidson team except one of their backs,
who finally nabbed him.
The first score was made after three
minutes of piny, when Denny carried
the ball over the line for a touchdown.
In bringing the ball out for a try at
goal It was touched to the ground, and,
of course, queered the piny.
In the second half McKay went over
for n touchdown and Klllott kicked
goal.
With the ball on Georgia’s 30-yard
line and less than one minute to play,
Klllott placed a great drop kick be
tween the goal posts.

world of strength to the team.
Another Sporting Sermon
On the Idiocy of Betting
As & general proposition, a man who
, bets on a hors© race ought to have a
* % keeper appointed to look after his
money.
• But a man who goes against this
Piedmont park hand-book game ought
to have a commission appointed to ex
amine into his sanity,
i It's awful to see men "crazy from the
i heat" In this chilly weather, but there
j Is no other way of accounting for
' financial doings of those who bet
I against those hand-books at Piedmont
1 park last week.
; As a frenzied game. It ought to make
Htandard Oil pink with perturbation.
For all the horses "run for the book."
and the lambs come in for a shearing,
no matter how they finish.
Talk about your "tight books"—well,
those chaps make one that Is close to
the limit. If the natural odds on a
j horse would be 6 to 1, they give you 3
i to 1. The even money fuvorlte is let
[ out In small blocks at 2 to 5 and 3 to
I 5. but you can't have im^ rtf
, did, the books might lose,
i mote chance, but the books don't take
chances. Safe nnd sure Is their motto.
The way they do It Is to make from a
165 to a 195 per cent book. That Is.
for every $100 they pay out to the men
who win. they make a profit of from
865 to |95—no matter which horse
wins.
Here's how it works, taking the
fourth race Friday as an example.
Here are the horses, the odds and the
"bookmakers’ |*ercentqgr*' (the book
makers’ percentage, as shown below,
enables the puncher to tell what his
profit will be, provided he makes a
"round book"—that Is. one In which
he will pay out about the same amount
i on each horse, no matter which one
wins):
Horse. Odds. Pcri'ont.
Foxy Grandma 4 to l
Laura Hunter 2 to 1,
Ann Hill 2 tot
Young Molo , .2 to 1
Kthel Barry 4 lot

The Rain t«» l
bettor puts , up (nnd hence the cash
taken In by the book), and the right-
hand columv the total, which Is tho
amount he would pay back on each
horse If It won—supposing he made a

In the race! All long shots! The be

However, It looks a bit mote com
mercial from the pencller’s viewpoint.
In the first place. It makes 111 tie differ

amount on every horse. line is an
other string of «lo|w on It. The left-
hand column of figuies show,** the
amount the bookmaker bet
Total cash taken In .. ..$19:
So It becomes evident that though
some lucky bettors are due to take
down lloo, the bookie Is going to pull
down a fist-full. Here Is how the pen-
cller stands:
If*Foxy Grandma won he would pay
out $loo, leaving a profit/of $92.
If Laura Hunter won he would pay
out $99, leaving a profit of $93.
If Ann Hill won he would pay out
$99, leaving a profit of $93.
If Young Molo won he would pay out
$99, leaving a profit of $93.
If Kthel Hurry won he would pay out
$Hm, leaving u profit of $92.
If Balahot won he would pay out
$99. leaving a profit of $93.
If The Ram won he would pay out
$100, leaving a profit of $92.
As long as tho bookmakers are tak
ing down $92 of every $192 of your
money they handle, how long do you
think you are going to last at the
game?
And those are no unusual figures for
the Piedmont park game. In the first
race Friday the total percentage was
174—or n profit of $74 out of every
$174 on any one contest handled, lu
the second race the percentage was 16S
and In tho third 171.
Now, it happens to be a fact that
only one man who ever played the
races and made money out of It was
"Pittsburg Phil." And, "gentle reader,"
you have about as much chance of be
ing a “Pittsburg Phil" as you Imve. of
being a I'aesar, a Napoleon, a Shake
speare or a Nnali.
"Pittsburg Hill" made Ids money lK-t-
tlug where Ihe odds were liberal and
the bookmaket's percentage small. He
had absolutely the best information ob
tainable. lie made tlie racing game a
life study. Incidentally It killed him,

Nashville, Tehn., Oct. 15.—Five
touchdowns and four, goals kicked was
what Vanderbilt did to the University
of Mississippi on Dudley field Satur
day afternoon, the score being 29 to 0.
Not once did the visitors succeed in
making the distance, required in three
downs; In fact, they never made half
of It during the entire game. The
Vanderbilt line held like a stone wall
and the two muchly-touted "All-
Southern" celebrities, Elmer nnd Con
ner, proved easy picking for Jo Pritch
ard and Kd Neel. The two Vanderbilt
tackles bounced them out of place re
peatedly and did not seem at all wor
ried In handling them. Finally Jo
Pritchard was put out of the game for
being "rough" with Elmer. The latter
claimed Pritchard slugged him. Jo
says he pushed him with his open hand
and that Elmer Is "yellow" und a big
baby, too.
Neither Conner nor Elmer got Into
many of the plays, and they did little
tackling. The star work for Mississip
pi was done by Wettlln, nn end on Se-
wanee two years ago, but now playing
quarter for Mississippi.
The defense Vanderbilt has built up
this year has been simply marvelous.
Neither Kentucky State nor Mississip
pi was able to budge tho line a yard.
Innis Brown and Patterson are missing
from It, but in their stead ate such
stalwarts ms Ed Noel. Chorn. King,
Sherrill and others, who are playing
fast, aggressive football. Vanderbilt
has developed two fast and heady
quarterbacks In Costen and Hall. Both
run with the ball well, call signals
rapidly and display good judgment in
running the team. Vanderbilt's gains
Saturday were made mostly on straight
football, and the big squad of Sewanee
players down to "get n line" didn't see
anything they had not known before.
Craig and the Blakes (three of them)
circled the ends for king runs time and
again, and Owsley Manier, Craig and
the Blakes bucked the Mississippi line
for long distances. Vanderbilt tried
the quarterback kick on one occasion
and made a pretty gain with it, a
Vanderbilt man speeding out on the
end, down the field, and getting the
ball.
The Commodores were severely pen
alized on several occasions, one time
half the distance of the field being
given Mississippi. No one was se
riously hurt, A good-sized crowd was
out.

LEWIS PROVES
GOOD FIGHTER
Philadelphia, Oct. 15.— 1 That Harry
Lewis has always been held cheaply
was proved In the wind-up nt the Na
tional Athletic Club Saturday night,
when. In the second round, Lewis got
inside of Willie Fitzgerald's guard und
sending down his right, hit Fitzger
ald on the dangerous part.
The punrh was delivered so quickly
(hat even those in the Immediate vicin
ity of the ringside scarcely knew what
was c«»ndng off.
Willie went down for the limit, and
at fit si shooed no inclination to get
up. When he did get up. Fitzgerald
was visibly groggy, und wa«* mntpelled
to Stall a lift. Lewis, however, seeing
his advantage, was after him. As
so,mi ns Fitzgerald assumed a standing |

New York, Oct. J5.—Jeff O'Connell,
an English featherweight, fought Char
lie Lucas, a New York lad, yesterday
upon a West Sldo pier and battered
him fearfully In a fifteen-round fight.
It was at 3 o'clock that the bout was
to take place.
W# all met In a bum saloon over on
Eighth uvenue, somewhere near Thir
ty-seventh street, and waited for the
mttt artists.
There was h restaurant upstairs,
man with Ved grogans was the chef,
and he was as busy as a one-armed
paper-hanger with the hives. The
crowd Gmt waited was hungry and the
red-whiskered gent kept tossing ham
and eggs in the crowd so fast that you
could not count the orders. *
Over In the corner where the muddy
tan bark hud accumulated as thick a*
a mattress they had pitched the ring.
Some of the crowd sat upon u little
house built there; others had boxes,
nnd some stood Inside the little ring.
Jeff- O'Connell, with a bunch of re
fined-looking gentlemen, entered first.
Jeff has a little pug nose, and a pret
ty shape. In a few minutes Lucas,
who looks like a "Black Hand” man,
entered with his Shitrkey-Hke build and
sat In a big upholstered chair. They
had no stools, so each man grabbed an
arm chair.
It was to be fifteen rounds, break
clean, and the winner was to have
Kid Murphy ns his next opponent. Kid.
was introduced, said hello to some of
the fellows, and beat It back to the
crowd.
Bang, crash, zing, went something,
and the fight started.
O’Connell, who wears a swell left,
began to comb the features off Lucas
and soon had hltn covered with blood.
The latter was much shorter than the
Britton, and tossed a loose right around
as though ho didn’t care what it hit.
Jeff fed him lefts and rights until
his opponent's nose began to resemble
tho beak worn by Clrnno de Bergerac
and kept pelting. It went along this
way until the sixth, .and then O'Con
nell stung his man with a right In the
pit of the stomach. Lucas folded up
his fencer, but i»e held on. He was
covered with blood, but stuck the
round out by following the advice of
belladona plasters and hanging on.
Again jn the twelfth he made Joe
Grim look like a sickly child. He
took by actual count ten on the beezer,
six on the-Jaw, four on the ear, seven
In the front and twelve on the ribs. He
was as hard'to dovyn as a big pill, and
only fell once from weakness, not a
punch.
On with the fight. The lost three
rounds were slaughter. Lucas reeled
around tho ring, blood dripping from
his mouth and nose, and he was tak
ing the licking of Ids life. O’Connell
did not rest u minute, hut belted him
from side to side as though he was a
bag.
It Is doubtful whether Lucas could
have gone three minutes more. He
was a sight as he left the ring, but
O'Connell had not a mark.
