Vanderbilt Working Hard for Game With Auburn
*•+ *•+ +•+ +•*
Battle of Brains Between McGugin and Donahue
Nashville, tenn., Nov. 19.
When the referee's whistle
brings the Commodores and
rhe Auburnftes together at Bir
mingham next Saturday, there will
>« a fight to a finish between a
champion and a challenger. In
many respects this encounter will
be the most spectacular staged on
i Southern gridiron this year.
Auburn is the proud possessor of
an enviable record. No opponent
■n the South has flashed across
their goal line. And they have
grappled with the best of them.
1 >nly the stigma of the Harvard de
f at mars the Commodores' slate.
And that defeat was more or less
xpected by every one. But once
dnee the wonderful McGugin came
; Vanderbilt in 1904 have the
■ ommodores been forced to taste
-feat by a Southern eleven.
Twice under the McGugin regime
as Auburn and Vanderbilt hooked
up Once in 1905, when the Com
modores smothered Auburn 54 to 0,
nd in 1909 when even the dazzling
Hardage could not carry Auburn to
victory, although they were only
beaten 17 to 0.
For Donahue’s team Vanderbilt
-.itertains a most wholesome re
ject. They know much about Au
burn's ability this year, for they
ive spent many hours analyzing
-;-.e team's strength and weakness.
They do not propose to be caught
napping as they were in 1909, when
the Sewanee Tiger leaped down
from the mountain and literally
the Commodore limb from
limb.
Donahue Went to Harvard.
Donahue played a trump card on
McGugin when Foxy Mike jour
neyed over 1,500 miles to see Dan's
band exposed in the Harvard Sta
dium. To Just what extent he will
'••■ able to profit by the knowledge
.rained there will not be known till
about sundown next Saturday.
There are a host of rabid disciples
• : McGugin w'ho believe him capa
ble of devising an entirely new set
of freak formations and unfathom
able disguises for his bewildering
forward passes.
They argue that the brain that
mceived plays so deceptive as to
baffle the Crimson clan, will by
Saturday have Invented no end of
methods to mislead the Auburnltes.
Because the Commodore forwards
were in such poor physical shape

cables than expected and strength of the
New Orleans market after the close of
the New Aork market yesterday re
on* 3 I! ? , ou , r market opening steady 12
to 20 points better than last night’s close.
Ihe buying here came from the best
sources, with spot interests leading the
aggressive movement. This resulted in
a wave of short covering advancing most
active positions 5 to 9 points from the
opening. After the call the market was
less active and prices receded a few
points from the early best.
The heavy buying by McFadden and the
Waldorf crowd gave shorts a further
scare. Every bale of cotton that was
available by the larger Interests, causing
a rapid advance and during the earlv
forenoon prices aggregated a considerable
net gain over Monday’s final. Decem
ber and January reached the high levels
of the season, January rallying to 1“ 1”
and December to 12.11.
The stock of spot cotton In this mar
ket is small and is said to be owned by
large spot interests. The market was in
fluenced to some extent by the strong
foreign demand. Many cables were re
ceived here from abroad of the most op
timistic character. Texas reported good
spot demand at high prices; also the
eastern belt. The most potent factor for
the strength in the market was the spot
situation and the holding movement of
the actual throughout the country by the
producers is causing a bullish ’ feeling
throughout the trade.
At the close the market was steady
with prices showing a net gain aggregat
ing 12 to 45 points from the final quota
tions of Monday.

CHANCE WILL BL
!■ NEW MANAGER
OFYANKEES ■
NEW YORK. Nov. 19.—Frank
Chance will direct the des
tinies of the New York
Americans in 1913 if Frank Far
rell is successful in his negotiations
to get the Peerless Leader out of
the National league. Mr. Farrell
steadfastly asserts that he has
made no overtures to the deposed
leader of the Cubs. These asser
tions fall in line with a policy <0
keep the matter of negotiations as
secret as possible.
That Farrell has broached the
matter to Chance, and broached it
in no light vein, comes front the
Peerless Leader himself. When
"Husk” returned to the Pacific
coast after his light with Murphy
he told a close friend that he
Would surely be in New York next
season if he could get out of the
National league. He said that
Frank Farrell had made him a gen
erous offer, one that would more
than compensate him for the ig
nominy of Jtis dismissal from the
Cubs.
C. W. Murphy's breezy chatter
seems to have scared National
league club owners off the Peerless ■
Leader. When the "Verbose One’"
asked waivers only two clubs. Cin
cinnati and -Pittsburg, claimed the
man who made the Cubs famous.
Murphy had circulated the report
that Chance’s head was never
quite as sound after he underwent

Dreyfuss claimed eflance in order
to thwart Murphy’s purpose of
sending the former Chicago idol
back to the minors. Neither, it is j
said, intends to keep him as play

some way should be found to get

president of the Motor Cups Holding
Company, Harvey Granger, president
of the Savannah Automobile club, will
proceed with his negotiations with that
body to have the Grand Prize and Van
derbilt Cup races held In Savannah in

The first step will be to gain con
sent of that body. Then the Automo- i
bile Association of America, which con
trols the Vanderbilt Cup race, and the
Automobile Club of America, which lias
charge of the Grand Prize race, must
indorse the enterprise. These matters
having been arranged, It only remains

KRAENZLEIN RETAINED
TO COACH GERMAN TEAM
NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—Dr. Alvin'
Kraenzlein, generally rated as one of
America's greatest athletes when he
competed in the amateur ranks for the ;
University of Pennsylvania, has been ;
engaged by the German Olympic ath- I
letic committee to develop a team to ;
represented that country in the Berlin i
revival of the famous Greek games !
four years hence. I
The former trainer of the University '
of Michigan and Mercersburg school is ■
in Berlin, and came to terms with
"those higher up” in the cinder path |
sport there several days ago. His sal- 1
ary, it is said, will be $3,000 a year.
An American friend who made the I
trip and is said to be as conversant I
with athletics as the eminent trainer'

his nety endeavors. The pair will be I
known as "chief trainers for the Ger
man Olympic, team of 1916."
RED HOT CONTESFWHEN
A. B. C. PLAYS TUSKEGEE
It will be wQjght and speed against
snap, dash and enthusiasm when Tuske
gee meets Atlanta Baptist college Satur
day at Ponce Ucl.eon. Tuskegee has a
line that averages ’BO pounds and a back
field but a trifle lighter. In the game
with Risk last Saturday the Tuskegee
backs battered down their opponents' line
at will, making consistent gains of 5. 1.0 «
and 15 yards. They expect to do the
same for the local line or Saturday.
Atlanta Baptist colletf* will meet this
line-smashing eleven with a hitherto in
vincible set of forwards and a backfield I
that has the snap, - ash and enthusiasm
beforementioned.
Poach Archer believes that he has a
defense that will stop anything that Tus
kegee can bring. His line averages 170
pounds, and it is a significant fact that
during the ontire history of the local j
team, since the coming of <’oaeh Archer,
eight years ago. «»nl\ one squad has j
smashed the local line for a touchdown. |
That was the husky Indian-mixed hunch j
from Hampton, and they received in re
turn for this signal accomplishment a
surprising defeat of 16 to 5.

Keep Fighting For Living.
It’s one of the evil-- of pugilism
that men sometimes keep fighting
long after their heyde.v has depart
ed. The reason Is easy to find. The
money they made tn their prime lias
slipped through their fingers, and
it is a case of “needs must.”
Take Fitzsimmons, for instance.
Years after he should have been
laid away he tackled Philadelphia
Jack O'Brien in San Francisco. The

between rounds.

NOTHING EQUALS S.S.S
FOR OLD SORES
Nothing equals S. S. S. as a cure for Old Sores because nothing equals
it as a blood purifier. The source and supply of everj’ chronic sore is im
pure blood; the circulation is infected with germs and morbid accumula
tions which are being constantly deposited into the open place. This
causes ulceration anti inflammation of the flesh tissues and produces a con
dition upon which salves, washes, lotions, etc., can have no curative effects,
Ihe blood must be purified of all infectious matter before the circulation
can nourish the flesh tissues and stimulate them to the healthy condition
necessary to heal the sore, S. S. S. heals old sores by going down to the
fountain-head of the trouble and driving out the germs and morbid matters
which are keeping the ulcer open. Then as new, rich blood is carried to
the place, the healing begins, all discharge ceases, the inflammation leaves,
new tissue and healthy flesh are formed, and soon the ulcer is well. You
are not wasting time when you use S. S. S., but you are giving yourself
the benefit of the very best treatment for old sores. Book on Sores and Ul
cers and any medical advice free. S. S. S. is sold at drug stores.

As far as that goes, there were
chances at Reno that time for the
kind comparisons that excite sym
pathy. The hope that Jeffries
might be able to restore the “flower
of fistic supremacy" to the white
race addled the judgment and caus
ed many to attach false values to
things, but even when hoping
against hope one only had to place
a photo of Jeff as he was then
beside one of Jeff six years pre
vious to note the havoc time had
worked. One picture showed a
young Hercub-s, the other a bald
headed, flabby-muscled man with
all the earmarks of middle age.
Dixon Greatest of Fighters.
George Dixon was the saddest
example of all in the matter of
fighting long after the bodily
strength and knowledge of lighting
had waned. The brown-skinned
featherweight king at his best never
knew in equal. He beat the very
best that America, England and
Australia produced, and, taken inch
for inch and pound for pound, was
the greatest piece of human fight
ing machinery the world has ever
known. In the long run he was
compelled to fight to keep the Wolf
from the door.
Joe Gans was another. Not only
bad the marvelous Baltimorean
long service ami gathering years to
contend with in late battles, but
the seeds of the deadly white
plague were in his system, and
there are some now who believe
| season, is said to be sure of his job this

Just as long as gloves are wield

to Its own and each town that fos
