Tnn F Clark A « Pnmninv’B ^ompany ■ Cotton Letter New York, Oct. 11,—Cotton ruled easier today under the influence of good weather and forecast, hedge selling and some liquidation for the MS two day adjournment, the buying was scattered. It *waa remarked Covington Football Team Fails to Show Up Here Friday By DAVID “WARE” JENKINS A change in coaches at Covington High school is the reason given by the manager of Covington's team for not showing up for the" scheduled game with Griffin High Thursday in Griffin. A letter was received here early in the season accepting a game with Griffin. The schedule was printed in all the Atlanta papers, yet Coving ton did not give Griffin any notice that they would not fill their date 7 ‘ here. . A large crowd was gathered at Lightfoot park to see Griffin and Covington tie up in a stiff combat, but the opponents did not arrive. A long distance call was sent to Cov ington and the principal said the team was ■playing College Park. No excuse was given for their action ex cept that the school changed coaches and the schedule was not given in full to the new man. The excuses and alibis may sound excusable, but when a crowd gathers to sec a football game, it certainly expects to see two teams show up. However, the game played by two teams picked from the squad was weii worth seeing despite the little pangs of disappointment that con tinually came to mind. By exerting a lot of imagination the crestfallen spectators fancied they could see some unknown band of opponents desperately fighting our gayly arrayed eleven. By a quick change of jerseys, or to be exact, the putting on of old jerseys, Coach Taliaferro made him a new team. The encouraging feature of the practice was the completion of sev eral neatly worked passes that would have made any team sit up and take notice. White received several of, these passes and made nice gains for his “side. ff Gammon, varsity guard, ran true to form and looked good, breaking through the line and down ing his man. Unless hard luck continues to fol low our questionable schedule, Grif fin will face Commercial High here next Friday, followed by a trip to Macon the next Friday to buck Lanier, “Macon’s pride,” since Young Stribling forsook his old homestead for Atlanta. It might be that the only mishaps have occurred that will mar a per fectly good season, so we will pub lish the games that Griffin is sup posed to play: Commercial High in Griffin, Oc tober 17; Lanier in Macon, October 24; Newman in Newman, October 31; LaGrange in LaGrange, November 7. This ends the season of out-of-town games. Then Valdosta comes to Griffin November 14 and a hot battle is expected, for Valdosta was south Georgia's champions last year and press reports say that practically the entire team returned for this season. The season will be ended in Griffin when Marietta makes its annual tour' to our fair city of Turkish Towels and Canned Pimientos.
