WHAT COACHES AND CAPTAINS SAY ABOUT TODAY’S ROYAL BATTLE AT PONCEY COACH HEISMAN, 01 TECH—The team Tech will put in the field today is one of the lightest I have ever coached. The men are in superb physical condition, and will do their best against the seemingly overwhelming odds. The team has learned a good deal of football this year, and are wording well together. Georgia should win by at least two touchdowns, and more than that if McWhorter gets loose too often. ( APT AIN LEUHRMANN, OF TECH—We are going into the game determined to win. Every man on the Tech eleven will fight his hardest from start to finish, and I will have no excuse if we are beaten. “Me'll give Georgia all that we’ve got,’’ is our slogan. Yale-Princeton Game Biggest on Schedule Today -J.*.;. .>.4. 4. 4.,4. Harvard Meets Dartmouth; Indians Face Pennsy By Monty. YORK, Nov. 16.—Here they come, rounding the final turn, galloping down into the home stretch under full head way -the big teams of the country. The best, most important day of th- football '-ear has arrived, and of the six leading machines ~<■ the East copes with a foeman 1 worthy of its steel. The charge of Vale Bulldog into the Princeton Tiger’s lair heads the bill. Harvard tVnds its Cambridge goal against ..e Dartmouth onslaught at Cam bridge. Those blood-curdling Car lisle Indians swoop down upon old Father Penn's stalwarts in the City of Brotherly Love. Would that a man could be at •'..rv- places at once, to glue his ■..•ious orbs upon the entire ■ ,1 offering bf King Foot t! io day and date! Since that .. f , :he done, most of us hearties ,;.v- to be content with sitting in i.i>, Vaud and listening to the .liseorflant sounds that issue a two other press stands byway r . telegraph wire. The para -nt question of “which game?’’ hard one to answer from the niiroiut < : "which game will be st treat to the eye?" The t -n of “which game is the -• important?” might be called ■:.k.': one number eight mil- on and three.” As with one voice r !■ s the unanimous reply, "Yale ?: inceton.” Ml Depends on Yale's Improvement. I'ite big question up for decision ittle New Jersey town this afternoon is the strength of 'the Vale t> am. The virtues and faults of 'i’le Tigers are known. What they can and can not do when pit ted gainst opposition of their own lias been shown by their de- • a: at the hands of Harvard two age. Some of the failings ie remedied and the team gen- r i; can be expected to prove a -r- compact, a more dependable lag, because of two weeks more •: relishing. But in a general way i’l be about the same team, both : ength and weakness, that fell '■■bir'- Harvard. Vai- is practically untested. Last ' ■ •• performance against Brown, victory by only 10 to 0, showed '.:e coaches the very things about r charges that they would have mown a week earlier had the Col gate fray not been called off be ius- of the death of York. Yale Fly lias lost a whole week by the ipint: of that date off the sched '■l and as a result this week the r PHIS remarkable Turkish-blend has brought a new definition for a cigarette. ‘Distinctively individual’* —you will quickly under stand in the smoking! 20, wrapped plainly that’s why the price is 15c.

Upon what they have accomplished since last Saturday' depends Yale’s chances to beat the Tigers. The Yale team, in a summary glance, can be classed as probably the greatest collection of football players among the big three. Yale as a team is a different proposi tion. Last Saturday it was not a team that beat Brown. It was merely a bunch of individual stars with hardly any co-operation o» uniform method. This, it seems to us, is due almost entirely to a su perfluity of coaches, the men be coming confused by the conflict of ideas jammed into their heads. A poor grade of coaching, well drummed into a team, is better in our opinion than twenty different styles of best grade coaching, con fused and untaught to the men. If Yale has become adjusted into a team with team work, it looks from here as if the Tigers are due for their doom. If Yale has not pro gressed in the last few days past the individual stage, it is good-bye, Eli?, and possibly a neat little to tal run up by' the Orange and Black. Yale teams ha\ e accomplished the almost superhuman in single weeks of past years, notably Daly’s team of two years ago. Have they repeated this year? We doubt It. In other words, we think Yale is in for a spanking. Harvard has quite a bit more than a sinecure on its hands in the person of the Dartmouth eleven. LOCAL SOCCERS PLAY IN LITHONIA TODAY The Atlanta soccer football club left this morning for Lithonia, where they play a return engagement with the fast Lithonia eleven. Lithonia was returned the victor in the game played at Piedmont park two weeks ago, but the local lads have been practicing faithfully for the past two weeks, and believe that they will be able to reverse the tablets. BOARD OF ARBITRATION MOVES OVER TO CHICAGO CHICAGO, Nov. 16.—The board of ar bitration of the National Association of Baseball Clubs transferred the scene of operations from Milwaukee to this city today. A large number of eases still re main to be disposed of and the board may not be able to get through today. At Milwaukee yesterdav a dozen cases were disposed of. among which was the division of the Central league Into two leagues, to be known as the Central league and the Interstate league. AUBURN TO SEND WHOLE WORKS TO BIRMINGHAM MONTGOMERY. ALA., Nov. IS.-A spe cial train, bearing about a thousand Au burn rooters will go through Montgomery the morning of November 23 to Birming ham for the Auburn-Vanderbilt football game, which will decide the championship of the South. The train will start out from Auburn with fourteen coaches and about TOO stu dents. At. Montgomery It is expected to add two couches to carry the orunee and blue fiends from Montgomery and sur rounding territory. It Is expected that at least 150 rooters will board the train here. WILLIE HOPPE FAVORITE OVER ORA MORNINGSTAR NEW YORK, Nov. 16.—Betting odds of o to 4 that Willie Hoppe would win the 18.2 balk line billiard tournament for the championship of the world were offered today. Hoppe and Ora Morn ingstar are tied for first place, each having three victories against one de feat. CARRIER DELIVERY FOR CALHOUN STARTS 20TH CALHOUN. GA., Nov. 16.—Announce ment has been made by Postmaster For rest L. Dyar that Calhoun is to have city delivery. The new system will be Inaugurated on November 20. This im provement was brought about through the efforts of Mr. Dyar, who circulated a pe tition some months ago and presented it to the postal authorities The town has already been surveyed and routes mapped out. THE- ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1912. The Green team, when it lost to Princeton, looked much like the Yale outfit —a great array of mate rial without polish. The over whelming of Amherst and Cornell since then would indicate that the Hanoverians may have improved, but It is almost too much to ex pect them to beat the Crimson, which has defeated their only con querors. This game holds unusual appeal because of the reappearance of the great goal-kicking Charley Briekley on the battlefield. Indians Too Tough For Pennsy. Those who watch the Carlisle In dians attack the Penn in Quaker town stand a good chance of wit nessing the most spectacular game of the day, the most picturesque. The remarkable brace of the Penn sylvanians in the Michigan game, slashing to victory after being 21 points to the bad, lias brought them back in our midst with glee and gusto. Penn, always noted for genuine gameness, seems this year to be one of the grittiest teams ever sent forth by tiie institution. They probably will find the red men too stiff opposition to overcome, but they can be relied upon to tight back with all the strength that is in them and to dispute the braves’ claim to every inch of ground. Penn is opposing a team that in many ways appears the strongest In the country. It is too bad that the Indians do not meet Yale, Har vard or Princeton. Without such a game to play, they can not by any means be rated the champions of the country, no matter how badly they may efface all other aggrega tions. In our humble mind, Carlisle is a touchdown better than any of the big three, Harvard not except ed. However, there is no way to prove or disprove, that. This year, as In other years of the recent past, the football season is concluding with a succession of three games of forefront rank on adjacent Saturdays. The Prlnceton- Yale game today is the first, then next Saturday the Yale-Harvard game at New Haven and a week later the so-called post-season tilt of the Army and Navy. Not for getting. of course, Penn and Cor nell on Thanksgiving day, a game which, while not of title importance, always has proved a brilliant spec tacle. TECH Y. M. C. A. FIVE BEATEN BY CENTRALS The basketball fives of the Centra’ Young Men’s Christian association and the Tech Y. M. C. A. met for the sec ond time this season last night at the Central association court, in which game the Central five defeated the Tech quintet tn a beautifully played game by the very close score of 25 to 23. The Tech team defeated the Central asso ciation five a few weeks ago, and the teams are now tied, each having won one game. HARVARD-YALE TICKETS SCARCE NEW HAVEN, CONN., Nov. 15.—The football association today sent back more than $12,000 that had been sent with requests for seats at the Yale- Harvard clash on Noveinbe- 23. About 6,000 persons. Including more than 4,000 Yale graduates, who wanted to see the game were disappointed. Th <a /• MOTOCYCLE for 1913 I Eleven naw feature! in addition to the fourteen of 1912.

THE HEN DEE MANUFACTURING COMPANY 487 Peachtree St., Atlanta, Ca. COACH CUNNINGHAM, OF GEORGIA—My team is ready for the battle. We never an ticipate defeat, but I do think tiie teams are evenly matched, everything considered. Every man remaining on the squad is in good condition. I look for a good, clean game, for if we win I want it to be known that the best team won. Tech has a great bunch of fighters, and ' I admire their spirit. May the best eleven be returned the winner. CAPTAIN PEACOCK, OF GEORGIA—I hope and expect that Georgia will win, but look for a very, very hard fight. If we win it will be by clean football, for we are going to play i fairly no matter how hard we are pressed. One touchdown will probably decide the winner. ‘KING’ COLE NOW MANAGER-OF 1 BARBER SHOP By R. W. Lardner. CHICAGO, Nov. 16.—That things can happen in the Corn Exchang’e Bank build ing, even when Charles W. Murphy is out of town, is almost too much to believe. Nevertheless’, with the Cub owner in Milwaukee, a deal was pulled off there—on the tenth fluor, too—by which King Cole climbed to a managerial position. No, the King has not robbed Johnny Evers of his job, nor is he going to Cincinnati to succeed Hank O’Day. He has been appoint ed bench manager for John the Barber, with a possibility that, in a pinch, he will do some shaving and haircutting himself. Mr. Cole and Mr. John were brought together in Mr. Murphy's office by Diplomat Al Campion. Al hates to have any one mad at his boss, and King had not been feel ing any too cordial toward Presi dent Murf since the well known Pittsburg trade. Al figured that if he should prove instrumental in finding a lucrative occupation for King during the winter months, much of Mr. Cole’s soreness would wear off. Conference Lasts Three Hours. John and the King were closetea for three hours. At the end of the conference the former announced that he had signed Leonard to spend the off-season in his shop and direct the work of the barbery. It will be recalled that King took a tonsorial degree in lowa before he broke into league baseball. He will have absolute authority over tiie men in the shop, and the cus tomers. too, telling them what tonics to use, whether they shall be combed wet or dry. shaved close or far-away, attacked with shears or clippers, singed or shampooed, massaged by hand or machine, and whether or not their shoes need shining. He will also name the amount of the tips and share in them. Asked for a statement regarding his appointment. King replied: "Why all this superfluous ton sorial herpieide? The matter is sine qua non. 1 have nothing else to say." Murphy Shaves in That Shop. President Murphy has his fa cial and hirsutlcal work done In John's place. After this he will be waited on during King’s lunch hour. TONY ROSS HANDS AL PALZER A FINE 6 ROUND BEATING PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16.. Al Palzer, "white hope." got a sound thrashing here last night at. the hands of Tuny Ross, the Italian boxer, of Newcastle. Pa.. who Is much smaller than Palzer and seven teen pounds lighter. Ross made Palzer look like a novice in several of the rounds. It was a six round affair. Palzer’s swings were wild and he landed only a few. 1912 Proves a Poor Year for Champion Fighters •F.-b -I-.-!- •!•••{- •>«•£• Attell Loses Title; Wolgast and Conlon Lucky By Left Hook. rpHE year 1912 will go down in £ the annals of boxing as a most disastrous one to champions and near-champions. In the champion class Abe Attell.was the first to get into trouble and he lost his crown to Johnny Kilbane after twenty rounds of milling, in which time the Cleveland streak always had a safe lead. Attell has since proved by two or three very Indifferent fights that he has gone back past all hope of ever figuring again in the championship ranks. He was a wonderful pugil ist in his day, and it will be years, if ever, befo’re we see his equal in his class again. In his prime, the present crop of featherweights would have been duck soup for him, and he held his title longer than any other world's championship Here’s ”Jtni” MacEachran 117/o Thinks [ Jgk Ihe Georgian’s i*BL Marathon Racer : d Is ’’Just Grand” \’ 'r jOr '"’VQr t Mfr - ■ »/ ■■ “Jim” Mac Eat hran is Atlanta’s hest known ■ \ juvenile actress.

Ad Wolgast was tiie second title holder to have a narrow escape. This was his own fault, however, as he agreed to tight one of the hardest contenders in his division six months after his operation. He managed to retain his title through an unprecedented mixup at the fin ish, in which the referee declared him the winner. Immediately after he went to his corner and collapsed and everybody who saw the fight knows that if it hadn’t been for the technicality that gave him the de cision he would have been unable to go on. Coulon Risks His Title. The third world's champion to get into the danger zone was little Johnny Coulon. who only saved his crown the other night, owing to the fact that ft was a no-decision con test. This boy Williams, however, gave him the scare of his fair ypupg life, as the following account from a New York paper will show: “Ten thousand persons saw ‘Kid’ Williams, the lightning little ban tam from Baltimore, gave Johnny Coulon, the champion of ths class, a decisive beating last night at Madison Square Garden in ten rounds. As it is against the law in this state to give decisions, Coulon still holds the title. Had the bout been staged where the referee might declare a winner, a tow headed lad who was a newsboy a short time ago might be the wearer of the crown. Coulon weighed 112 pounds and Williams scaled three pounds more stripped. “Out of the ten rounds there was only one in which the champion had the better of the argument, the second. The fourth and the sev enth were close enough to be called even. The rest of it was all in fa vor of Williams.”
