ATLANTA CAMPAIGN WAXES WARM
EACH SIDE GATHERING STRENGTH
FOR A FAST AND FURIOUS BATTLE
The Maddox Organization Is
Better Prepared for the
Fray
BUT WOODWARD'S FRIENDS
CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS
•So For, th# Campaign Which Has Rant
The Capital City From Centar to
Circumference Has Been Void of
Personal Bitterness. But the Intense
Enthusiasm Gathers Strength With
The Passing of the Hour* and the
Situation le Tense in the Extreme—
The Situation Viewed From Stand
point of Both Factions.
ATLANTA, Ga.. Nov. 21—Not in
the history of Georgia has a mors
bitter and Intense political struggle
torn a community than the one now on
In Atlanta between Robert F. Maddog
and James G. Woodward, for the may
orship of the city. The one consol
ing feature Is that It will hr brief, as
the election occurs within ten days.
However, all the extended bitterness
and Intensity of a long campaign are
being compressed Into a few days,
making the campaign without parallel
for energetic effort.
Campaign is Hurting Business.
Scores of oromlnent business men
who have heretofore given no more
than a passing thought to any kind of
politics, have virtually deserted their
usual avocations, and, forgetting their
private Interests, are at work heart
and soul for one of the candidates. The
campaign Is having a seriously de
pressing effect on general business, and
those who have not b'-en wrought up
In behalf of one or the other of the
candidates are groaning beneath the
burden.
Both sides have had thousands of
ribbon badges prepared and are dis
tributing them amone their adherents.
Every other man one meets wears on
his lapel a blue ribbon bearing the
name '‘Maddox’* or a white one con
taining the single word "Woodward.”
a custom heretofore reserved for elec
tion day only. fc ... ... .
Many Clubs Formed.
Organized campaigns-are bring wag
ed. barely an hour passing without a
conference or committee.*;meeting of
some kind belnr held. Big clubs aro
being formed. This Idea was first
adopted by tbe Msddox forces, snd
nearly 5,000 names have been enrolled
by them alone.
Ministers With Maddox.
It Is probable tha* at least 500 men
• ro devoting all of their time to active
work for one or the other candidates,
and from a dozen or more pulpits to-
morrow the ministers of the city will
probably refer to the campaign. They
will almost without exception take a
atnnd for Maddox.
The campaign Is the one .ole, un
avoidable topic of conversation. Ro
far the dlecusslons have'In the main
hren EOod-natured. No personal dif
ficulties have occurred, and personali
ties have been avoided. Leaders of
each Bide often atend the open meet
ings of the other, and »v treated with
utmost courtesy. While aome speak
ers on each side are of the hot-headed
variety, most of them keep within par
liamentary bounds In tholr remarks.
The Issues,
The Woodward forces admit Mr.
Maddox’s personal Integrity, business
ability and hl*h standing. Their at
tacks are baaed on the theory that his
candidacy la a •■bolting" of tha pri
mary and that It la backed by the
"kid-gloved” element arrayed against
the workingmen.
Th« Maddox forces do not deny that
Woodward made a splendid practical
mayor, and they do not quaatlon hi,
personal Integrity or official probity.
Their appeal for voter* to act Inde-
pendently of the primary Is baaed on
the charge that the city cannot afford
to have aa Its official head a man who
has on several nccaalons departed from
the straight and narrow path of strict
morality. ■ Thev claim to be lighting’
for decency and good morals.
Mr. Woodward does not deny that
he once again "looked unon tha wine
while it was red" and while under Its
Influence erohahlv acted Indiscreetly.
Its pleads In extenuation that sueh
escapades are not the rule of his life,
and Offer* to make amends aa well
as the usual nledgea.
•They say that the mavor la a mem
ber of tha board of education and
cornea In dose contact with four bun.
deed lady teachers, and thev
that I am unlit for aueb association."
he said at one of hla meetings last
night. "It Is true that the mayor Is
* member cf the bosrd of education.
Rut I want to say that T seryed on
that board and came In contact with
the teachers for four years, and I
would he glad rleht now to leave my
election tn the handa of those teach-
Woodward Stands on Officisl Record.
■■My official record, not my occa
sional private conduct. I*, concisely
stated. Mr. Woodward’s claim for
support, on tha other hand, the in
dependent forces say that hie private
coodurt condemns him despite hla good
Official record. . ,
There Is little question but that at
the present time he la vary strong.
If be Is defeated It will be largely due
to the superior campaign being waged
hv his opponents. Mr. Maddox «
friend* are Bearing neither work nor
money. Cash I* not twin* used for
Imnrooer purposes, so far aa Known,
but all that I* needed for eroner our-
poAs. I. forthcoming. Any fund »*r-

peieo. on* Into which etmrv bmdoess
detail -aa been brought to bear n
•£,- rmtk at o*rfectlnn. Th*v art. in
fact **»Ulre th# superito ****•.
Labor Is Back of Woodward.
Mr. Woodward’s forces lack orgari-
fzailoa, excepting as repreesated by
the labor unions, with slight exoep-
tlon the union men of the city are
for Woodward, and nr* fighting for
him on the theory that opposition to
him Is an affront to mem. They are
appealing to their friends, and to the
men with whom they do business.
Their Influence, If properly directed,
would be almost Insurmountable In
Atlanta.
The police force of the city Is said
to contain 150 Woodward to about 60
Maddox suoporters. Members .of the
fire department and other city em
ployes are said to be three to one
for the former mayor. Street car
employes are, It is said, overwhelm
ingly for Woodward. The Influence of
these forces Is great.
However, the Woodward campaign
lacks organized effort, as stated. En
tirely too much dependertce Is being
placed In Individual enthusiasm. It
Ls also reported that It Is hampered
by lack of funds. Four committee
men named on his committee* last
night announced for Maddox today.
There has been considerable betting,
usually at even odds.
CONFERENCE IS
HEARING^ CLOSE
Monday Evening Bishop

Appointments
GAINESVILLE. Go., Nov. SI.—Hie
Saturday morning session of the
North Georgia Conference was open
ed with the hymn, “Father, I stretch
my bands to Thee," etc.. Rev. J. A.
Reynolds leading in prayer. The
morning lesson was from II Corin
thians, 13:1. Bishop Hoss expound
ed the gospel forcibly and clearly.
In answer to the question: “Who
aro the deacons of one year?” Rev.
Charles I*. Bass was called. Owing
to sickness he wiui unable to appear
before the examining committee. He
made his report and was continued
In the class of the third year.
Tho following were passed to the
class of the fourth year, after re
ports: Robert F. Hodnett, .Miles B.
Sams and Horace Stratton Smith'.
Oeorgo ">V. Hu milt on and John T.
Hicks Wers elected to deacon’s orders
as local preachers.
The following were elected * to el
der’s orders ss local preachers: Ged'.
E. Stone. Charles F. Hughes snd Wil
liam R. Westmoreland.
Upon the call of tho question: "Are
all the preachers blameless In their
life and official administration." along
list answered and the pleasing "Noth
Ing against him" was tho chorus.
Secretary C. C. Cary announced the
allotment of the board of church ex
tension.
Educational Work.
One of the specially Interesting feat
ures of the morning session* was the
report of Dr. John D. Hammond,
the capable general secretary of the
educational interests, who spoke of
the needs of the church's educational
work.
Upon the call of the roll, which was
here resumed, of those elected to el

Dr. Gross Alexander, editor of the
Methodist Review, was presented to
the conference by Bishop Hoss. who
declared the Review was never better
than now. This was Dr. Alexander's
first visit to the North Georgia Con-
ferenoc.
Those who have never attended the
annqal sessions of a Methodist con
ference roatlso how much work Is ac
complished nor how much of a strain
the preaohern and laymsn are In to
do this work while the conference
lasts.
Question of Assignments.
It Is understood thit the bishop and
his cabinet have practically agreed
upon the assignments for the ensu
ing year. No Inkling of what these as
signments are will be given out, how
ever. and those who are anxious to
know "who’s who" for the next year
will have to wait until the bishop fin
ishes reading the appointments Mon
day evening. Of course all presiding
elders and preachers who have served
charges for four years know that they
will be moved, but "where?" is the
question uppermost In their minds
at this time.
This session of conference, so far. has
been bleezed with Idrol weather. Each
day has hern balmy npd spring-like, and
It appepm that a better time could not
have been had for holding the annual
session. The ministers, laymen and com
mitteemen have visited nearly all places
of Interest In and around Gainesville.
Chattahoochee Park, where a magnificent
lake can be seen, and a aplendid view of
the Blue Ridge mountains obtained on
the way out. has hern a favorite place.
Now Holland, with It's big million dollar
cotton mill, and It's thrtvlnr population
together with the great, bubbling mineral
spring, which was famous In the old
davr. has been visited by many, who
have viewed the wonderful transforma
tion of the summer resort to a thriving
manufacturing center.
All the visitors have marveled at. and
commented upon. Gainesville’s magnifi
cent churches. The First Methodist.
Where the sessions are held, has elicited
many favorable comments, and tha con-
•gramlion has time and again been com
plimented upon having so fine an edifice.
The new Presbyterian church In the next
for committee meetings and It. too. has
been th* subject of romnlimentary men*
Itton. The -new First Bontlst rhurch,
which Is nearing completion, hn* attract
ed much** Mention. Being so prominently
located and being built of granite It has
been seen by every person tn attendance
amazed at 1t*s beautv and magnificence.

IN SEASON’S GREATEST GAME
YALE TEAM LOST TO HARVARD
Although Defeated Old Ell's Lina Has
Never Been Crossed—Winning Ssora
Was Made on a Go«il From the Field
—Much Brilliant Playi-.g,
NEW HAVEN. Conn.. Nov. 21—A
crimson tide of banners swept In trt-1
umph over Yale field (n the dying light
this afternoon, for the men of Har
vard. after aeven long years, had
beaten Yale 4 to 0. A goal from tits
field, kicked by Victor P* Kennard,
of Brookline. Mm, fresh from the
side lines and standing on Yale’s 28-
yard line with bhe crimson line plant
ed on the 16-yard line, was the wln»
nlng score as the first half was clos
ing. The gam© was a battle of. foot
ball giants, the like of which bts not
been seen on Yale field. The sons of I
Eli can point as a consolation to their
goal line, which was not crossed by|
a foe of even such worthy mettle. I
Man for man the teams were equally
matched. Each team's defense was
stronger than Its offense, and the bt-st
laid plans of each In strategy well-
nigh went to naught. There was a
critical point In the game and it came
la the second half, owing to the fail
ure of a forward pass. Yalo had
worked the ball to Harvard’s 2S-yard
lllne, when Johnson, tho quarterback,[
gave the signal for the piny which
I proved so successful against Brown.
This time the place for Its execution
was the diagonal opposite corner of
the field. The ball went back to Pbll*
bln, who passed It cleanly over the
on-ruahlng crimson forwards to
lHaines. But the ball was not thrown
more than five yards from the center
lllne and thinking tho play was faulty
under the rules, the ball went to Har-!
vard. A great sigh of relief went
up from the Harvard side of tha field,j
and not five minutes later tho game
ended. *•!
That this was a critical moment. Is
proven by the fact that throughout!
the second half Harvard did not :nee
have the ball In Yale's territory anfll
yet so stubborn was her def*n«o that;
neither Coy with Oils terrific plunges|
nor tho tremendous efforts of the
Yalo line to open holes were able to
push the ball nearer than tho 16-yard
line. So well matched v/era tho team*
that neither got nearer than 15 ykrd*
to its opponent's goal.
Tho playa wero in larie mewfiirtul
rushes; occasionally there would bo an
end run. which were not very mto9M*i.
fit’ except when Harvard directed, one
against Capt. Burche’s end. *
The longest am was by Wheaton of
Yale at the kick-off In tho seoonrt
half, when ho returned tho hall 35
yards. The longest rush wav by Ver-
wlebe, tho ’crimson fullback, who
started In tho gamo for Harvard, and
this netted 18 yards around the ond.!
Aa a whol© the game was rather*cf
the old-fashioned type, minus Its ma<s
plays by reason of tho neutral zono
and tho 100-yard distance.
Harvard was at times able to penei
tfate the Yalo lino mnro often owing
to the speed In which tho lino plays
w<re started. Yale was slower than
Ilarvard. yet the power whs-there. as
was shown In tho second half. Har
vard rushed during the entire game
slxty-fire times, netting 241 yards, an
average of 3 2-8 yards to ft rush.!
Yale rushed forty-seven times for a
distance of 95 yards, or nearly a yard
less per rutfh on the average. Har
vard received the ball four »»mcs on
on downs, while Yalo failed’to hold!
the crimson for downs once, simply
because a kick was resorted to-when
two rushes had failed to give the
needed three yards. This made the
©xnhanges of th" hall frequent and
lent spice to the play. Coy nnd Ken-
narrl were tlm* and again called upon
to boot tho ball out of danger. The
ball was handled cleanly after tlieso
kicks, tbe only fumblo was by a Har
vard back on her lf.-yard line.
In kicking, Cov lifted the, ball nine
times for a totsf of ail yards, an avsr-
n#re of 25* yards. Harvard oalled upon
all her full backs to kick and tbs total
of their efforts wo* 325 yards for U times
and an avsrsge of 29 3-8 yards. There
were many penalties. Harvard losing 120
yards on 12 penalties and Yale 65 yards
on six penalties. Some of the ground
gaining was on the running back of kicks,
Harvard netting II yards this way.*In
cluding 15 on one kick off and, Yale 60
yards. Including SS. after on# kick offi
Ilarvard II fir* UP own* and Yale I. 1
Three forward paste*, one by Harvard,
all failed, and of on-side kicks Yale gained
22 yards on one snd failed on two others
anti Harvard failed on both of bars. Coy
twice from the Harvard 40-yard line, tried
what was Intended to be drop kicks for
goals and neither was well directed nor
pKe’vlctory of Harvard was undoubtedly I
due to the quirk Judgment of the Har
vard coaches In rending In Kennard tc
try for a goal, though ysrwUba, who ha
.succeeded, had been plurfDff <finely.® The
change In the lineup was tnztantly made
for tbe plays were being reeled off rapidly,
when came the lineup on Yale’s lf-ynrd
llhe. In another second Ksanard st full
back had received the ball, and WttlTW
hla toe to it. the goal was made amid wild
scenes on the Harvard eld* of th" field. .

Minnesota outplayed the Indians an
straight foot ball and woulj probably
have scored another touch down bad
the game lasted a minute longer, at
the ball was on the. Indians' one-foot
lino with Minnesota battering away
the Carlisle defense. The Indians
wi re unable to elude the Minnesota
ends on the forward passes and also
fBmbled frequently. After tha first
few attempts Minnesota eaal'.y solved
Carlisle’s fake plays.
Each team seored a touch down In
the first half and each touch down
WSs followed by a goal. Minnesota
scored one touch down In the second
hilf. but failed to kick. Tho Min
nesota goal was never In danger In
thf second half. Minnesota played
throughout the game with tho same
lineup, while Carlisle made frequent
changes In the second Dalf. Hauser
re Ired from the game In the second

Chicago Beat Wisconsin.
IADISON. WIs., Nov. 21.—A re-
mi rkable 100-yard run for a touch
down by Quarterback Steffen gave the
western foot ball champlomrtIp to
Ch engo today. But for thla run the
aedre In the contest between Wiscon
sin and Chicago would have been 12
to a. The play was one of the most
remarkable ever seen on a western
foot ball field. Stelhm for Wisconsin
kicked off to Steffen, who got the ball
on, his own 10-yard line, near the
western side line. Steffen started
straight up the field and only two or
three times was ho compelled to dodge
a tackier. Tho Wisconsin playara
seemed dumbfounded «t the rapidity
of the play. Steffen ran like a whirl-
wind and attempts to catch him wero
futile. The touch down was scored
probably within thirty seconds from
the time the play began.
Except the brilliant work of Steffen
tbsfe \vas little difference In the of
fensive strength of the teams.
