■ game to' be played Saturday is
ame between Georgia-Tech

ig attention because of the

a conference team and because of
the strength of each team. Both
teams are strong and the team
that wins the game Saturday will
no doubt ba one of tha runners-up
for the championship.
Then comes the game between
the great Bulldog team and Flor
ida. Of course this game is oi
groat interest to Athenians but
there is no doubt at all about the
result of this game. The Bulldogs
are far stronger than the ‘Gator:
and in our opinion will have ver
little trouble in winning the game
to bo played Saturday afternoon.
Washington and Lee will fight
hard to hold its undefeated record
in a battle with the Virginia Cpv?

Decrease in the number of diph-
theira cases and carriers over the
same, month last year is noted in
the October report for tha City-
County .Board of Health, issued
by Dr. B. B. Bagby, Wednesday.
In October, 1920, thrity cases of
diphtheria and four carriers were
reported as against four cases last
October and eight carriers. Dr.
Bagby states that October is the
month in wheih diphtheria is most
prevalent. The department records
show that 2200 children under 10
years of age had been vaccinated
against diphtheija ttriojr to the
summer of 1927. This represents
half of the , children of Clarke
county. Since August 1, there
have been fourteen cases of diph
theria and only ono of the fourteen
had been vaccinated against the
disease. Dr. Bagby points out.
Anybody who believes that
figures do lie can be. convinced

With the increased .Interest on

books, there, has been an increase
in the number of biographies.
Not only are the great and near

who do not claim eminence are
being treated biographically. In
the current crop of biographies,
there Is one that stands out. It Is
