was planned to have the expedition go
south In two sections, one going on
the Aurora to the Boss sea on tho
New Zealand side of the Antarctic,
while that headed by Kir Ernest went
by way of South America. The two
sections were to meet In April I*ls
or st the latest In March 1916. The
Sydney advices Indicate that It will
be tn the latter year that tho parties
will meet.
The expedition plans to traverse a
distance of 1,700 miles, from the Wed
dell sea lo the Ross sea; after reach
ing ths South Pole Sir Ernest will
choose one of three routes to return,
either the one taken by Scott, that i
taken by Amunsden, or a third cross- |

tains, It is also expected that much
scientific Information will be gath
ered.

Can Be No Doubt As to Claim of
Winner of Next Friday's Game
Richmond Academy Meets Boys’ High, of Atlanta, on Local
Gridiron This Week for Prep School Football Champion
ship of the State. First Time in Years Race Narrowed to
Two Teams. /
Tho •cheduling of the-g&me between
Richmond Academy and the Boys’
High, of Atlanta, for the high school
championship of the slate has aroused
far more Interest, locally, than any
football announcement of the year. It
is the first time In years that the race
for tho high school honor has nar
rowed down to two teams —there can
bo no doubting the claim of the winner
of this contest to the tfctle. All other
high school elevens haxsn been elimi
nated, Tech High being Ihe last to go
tinder when they fell before Boys’
High on "turkey day" by tho close
scare of .1-0.
Atlanta Fast.
Accounts of the games, ln which the
Atlanta aggregation has engaged in
dicate that the team Is very fast, using
open style play almost exx-luslvely. In
their last game, forward passes and
end runs constituted their general
method of attack. .fudging from the
low scores made their opponents, their
defense must he exceptionally strong.
Tech High has been rolltng up large
scores on all Its opponents throughout
tho season hut was unable to push a
point over on Boys’ High. Two weeks
prior to the Rlverslde-Rtchmond Acad
emy game, Hoys’ High held the hefty
Gainesville bunch to twenty points, on
the grounds of their opponent* at that.
With the*® fact* In mind, It may be
readily seen that the locals are not to
have an easy thing -on the contrary, If
they expect to "cop” the big end of the
TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY
Russia's forces, it is reported unofficially today, have at last reached
Cracow, the Austrlun fortress in northwestern Galicia, near the bound
aries of Russia and Germany. An Italian correspondent at the front
states that Cracow is now being bombarded by heavy Russian siege guns
and that one of the suburbs Is in flames. The capture of this fortress
hnH been one of the main objectives of Russia’s campaign against Aus
tria, on the theory that its fall, together with that of Przemsyl, now
under siege, would mean Russian ascendancy in that part of Austria which
lies to tlie north of the Carpathian mountains.
Other than this report there was little now Information concerning
the situation in the east. The main question in the opinion of Lon
don was whether the German nrmy which struck at the Russian center
would ho able to extricate Itself and fall back to the border without a
disaster. The Russian army operating from Lodz is striking a heavy
blow at the main German force but It IB probable that some time must
elapse bofore this phaie of the campaign In the east is brought to a close.
OlHnions differ sharply as to the Intention of Germany concerning
operations In the west. It Is reported that the allies are about to assume
the offensive, that the German line has weakened perceptibly and that a
new Genjian army is being rushed Into Flanders. In view of these con
flicting statements it <s Impossible to discern even the probabilities of tho
near future. Eiglitln at present apparently is confined to operations in
the Argonne.
Russia’s campaign against Turkey likewise has reached a period of in
activity. The latest report from theßusslan army of the Caucasus Is to
the effect that no movements of importance are under way.

Academy In Good Trim.
The Academy equarl in in good trim,
being fcA*tunate enough to escape Inju
ries in the Porter game. Kvery man
will he on edge for the battle, knowing
it to be the big game of the season.
Coach Wilson knows waht will consti
tute the strongest line-up and will start
the game with the most formidable line
up of the season.
In this connection, a word should be
said concerning the good work of Mlege)
In the Porter game. In the second half,
he was sent in to run the team from
the quarter's position and he did it in
the best of style. The entire team work
ed with a snap absent in the beginning
and put up the best game of the season.
The ball kept in Porter territory
practically the entire half, a penalty or
two at critical moments being all that
prevented one or more scores This, too,
against the best team the locals have
met this season.
A Line on Opponents.
Major Butler will assist Coach Wilson
during th*' week by outlining the forma
tions used by Boys’ High In their
Thanksgiving game. Major Butler was
In Atlanta for the purpose of refereeing
the Tech-Clemson game and took ad
vantage of the opportunity to get a line
on the two prep teams in their morn
ing game. Their is no keener student of
the game than Major Butler and his
analysis of the Boys* High style of
play will be of Incalvulable assistance in

EXECUTED FOB
0110 BRIBES
Ex-Prefect of the Peking Dis
trict Shot for Corruption in
Office. Friend of Yuan Shi
Kai.
Poking.— Wang’ Chin-Hsing, the ex
prefect of Bhuntienfu, the metropoli
tan district in which Peking is situ
ated, ha* been executed by shooting
because of bribery and corruption In
the selling of offices under him, Wang
Chin-Hsing held the military rank of
lieutenant general.
The case has caused great excite
ment in political circles in China, es
pecially because General Wang was
a personal friend of Yuan Shi Kai. It
!« reported that the president tent an
emissary to the family of the gene
ral informing them of his regret at
having.to fulfill the law In order to
stamp out corruption, and of his in
tention to provide for the maintenance
of the family.
Many minor officials also have lost
their Uvea because of dishonesty and
pplum smokers continue to die at the
handß of the soldiers. The governor
of the Important province of Kan Su
has been dismissed from office be
cause he did not believe In the sin
cerity of the president when recently
orders were issued that the time-hon
ored custom of aending rich gifts to
tho emperor on tho anniversary of his
birthday was not to be followed in the
case of the president.
TO UNVEIL TABLET
IN OCTAGON HOUSE
Washington.—President Wilson will
unveil on Wednesday a marble tablet
at the Octagon House, one of Wash
ington’s historic landmarks, commem
orating the ratification of the treaty
of Ghent there one hundred years ago.
The occasion will be the annual con
vention of the American Institute of
Architects which meets here this
week.
The Octagon House was built in
1100 and was for 18 months the home
of President and Mrs. Madison when
the White House was burned by the
British In 1814. Tt wa.s noted as one
of the social centers of the capital in
the early days, but In 1850 it became
a tenement for negroes. In 1899 the
Institute of Architects bought the
building and has since made its head
quarters there.
PURE WATER FOR
U.S. ARMY TROOPS
Wa»hington.—Army surgeons have
developed a new method of purifying
drinking water for troops in the field,
which, experimentally, has given ex
cellent results and is likely to be
adapted generally. Canvas bags so
closely woven as to be water-proof
are used to carry the water and in
each bag is dropped a glass tube con
taining 15 grains of chloride of lime.
This renders the water portable and
destroys all disease within five min
utes. The bag weighs only eight
pounds.

WHY ARE HIG HSctiOOL
STUDENTS BEHIND
To The Herald:
It seems to me that if High School
Students are behind in their work,
there is something vitally wrong
either with the course of study, the
teacher, or the pupil.
Why doesn’t the Board of Educa
tion look into the matter? Is the
course of study more than the normal
high school student can master? If
so, why not change it? There is no
use in working them to death. Pos
sibly it is the teacher's fault. They
are not always perfect. Or, if it is
not one of these, then it must oe that
our Augusta high school students are
boys and girls with minds just a little
more feeble than those of other cities.
Schools in other cities have two
weeks holiday. All colleges have them.
Why can’t we?
Are our children more feeble mind
ed than others? What a slam on
this precious Augusta. Won’t the
children be covered with shame at the
thought of their stupidity? They will
feel just as the “kept in” pupil at
school feels, and it amounts to Just
about that.
Being “kept in” a whole week,
think of it.
I understand that modern educators
advocate the plan of not “keeping in”
children. Are we living up to the
present day standards?
Do you think those children will
accomplish much during that week?
Don’t you think that if the gentle
men of the board get generous and
give the usual holiday that harder
