For general intereat throughout tin South, the Vanderbllt-Mlchlgan gain** in pre eminent. The Commodore#. coached by the mighty Michigan player. Dan Meflnglti, have wiped up the everlaatlng earth with everything whleh hnn had the temerity to tackle the game. Already the hrag team* of Kentucky. Mississippi. Alabama Texas liave hod defeitt smeared all them and the peaky Commodores are ad- . niitted to he the heat In the South, by those who are moat deeply IntercHtcd In developing team* good enough to take the rommodore*' measure, Already. In four games played under the acore-roduclng "ten-yard rule." Vanderbilt [ turn pile*! up 180 points to 0, and they hare dlaplnyed the greatest offensive and de fensive work on record In the South. If the Nashville men were going agaliiHt any team In the world but Michigan or one of the Eastern "Big Four" they would un doubtedly have n fnlr ehanee for victory. But there la praetlenlly 40 beating the Hurry-f'p hunch of Yost's, and It looka as though If Vanderbilt escape* .with not oTer two or three touchdown* against her, her liackera should bo Hatlnflcd. The Vanderbilt team la already speeding MIchlganward. and Saturday afternoon the fun begin*. The gnme at Aun Arhor 1* the only South- against-the-mlddle-Went contest this year, and one of the few Intcrsectlnnnl game* of the aenaon.

On the huals of the Maryville game*, Tech and Auburn nre about even. The Se- wanee gatuea have to lie taken with some explanation. The Hewn nee team came to Atlanta scared to death of the HoImiiiuii machine. The pur ple player* went on the Held to do or die, and they pinyed their very hardest. One of their touchdowns came from a *tmight football. Tin* other two were more o? lea* the result of hick accident*. When the Sewn nee player* went to Au burn, however, they thought that they Were up ngnliiat a • Inch and when they found ! their mistake It waa pretty late In the day, i and the team wn* badly demomllsed. It I# u known fact that up over-confident team I* handicapped a touchdown or two. and It I* obvlotm that Sewanee did not phi.v to her true form ngulnat Auburn. So. without venturing the prediction Auburn I* going to be beaten, the assertion In risked that the tennis nre about equal In atrength and that I ho victory will undotiht edly go to the team which plays nearest ti true form on Saturday.

FltANKl.lN Harvard Has Some New Plays For Her Game With the Elis The Harvard football team lias three more games before they will meet Yale, and In those three games they should show a still more open play. The four weeks before the game with Yale will probably be spent behind the fence In developing plays to use on the sons of Ell. Yale win meet West Point next Saturday, and that game will give the team*faces^Yal’e* supporters of both colleges a chance to compare the teams.

Billy swatted the tlrst ball pitched an awful belt nnd It went on a bee line for Dntmy. Poor Green did not want to catch It. but he ooUld not rim away from It, us It was routing on a line. So he simply stood In Ids tracks without moving 2 feet and caught It. "Better luck next flute," said the l*o.vs to themselves. So Green took Id* station way back In such a position that It a 100 to 1 shot that Sullivan would uot reach, but Billy drove another line crack right for Danny, who simply Und to catch that one, too.
