new students coming In and
matriculating- in unprecedent-

t« A m h !"’ 11 wlI i have some heavy losses
to make good in the non-return, for
various reasons, of some of her most
famous stars. Any line would he hard
ri t mh y sV 1 * a 0HS ot such players as
i*mb. Meadows. Burns, Pitts and
Ixickwood, and any back-field would
feel the loss of Major’s punting and
Ressijac s line plunging.
Of these Lamb and Major are the
only ones that have played their time
out. Resarijac, Burns. Meadows and
Lockwood have graduated. Pitts has
grone to Annapolis, where he will
make the Navy a good man. Lock-
wood may return, and It is to be de
voutly hoped by all Auburn support
ers that he will return to bolster up
any weak spots that may be in the
Auburn line. His weight, experience
and quickness would be of Invaluable
help.
Some New Men Useful.
These losses seem enough to wreck
an^ team, but there were some good
men on the scrubs last year, who were
Ineligible because they lacked the
necessary number of units and with
some varsity substitutes that will be
ready for regular berths this year
that will make Auburn’s team come
up to the usual standard. There ap
pears to be some new material com
ing In that will be useful the first
year, which is something unusual in
Auburn’s football history. Cleveland,
of Mobile; Hairston, of Marion, and
Prendergast, of Texas, are some of
the most prominent mentioned.
The severity of the football sched
ule and the reports coming from the
different hostile camps are what Is
giving Auburn the most concern just
now. Of the eight S. I. A. A. games
on the schedule, six are hard and they
come on consecutive Saturdays. The
first two, with Mercer and Florida,
might be said to be good practice
games, but that can not be said of any
of the others.
After these two games, which are
on the campus, the team journeys to
Clemson to play the “Tigers” on their
native soil. The Carolinians are
claiming a heavy and strong team
this year, which means trouble for
all opponents.
The next game is with Mississippi
A. & M in Birmingham, and everyone
knows. -by past experience, what to
expect there. They lose Williams, but
to the average layman it is hard to
see any loss there, otherwise, they
claim that they will be much stronger.
Then a journey will be made to
Mobile, where Louisiana State Uni
versity will be played. They return
every player of last year’s team, to
gether with the captain, who was in
jured most of last year, and they
are not at all bashful in their claims.
Auburn players reported them last
year as having the best looking ma
terial in the South. No chance to
ease up there.
Hear Tech Is Strong. „
The annual game with the Black
smiths. of Atlanta, comes next, and
1n their reports they are already con
testing the Southern championship
with Vanderbilt. They have corralled
a lot of prep stars and they will un
doubtedly have one of the most for
midable aggregations ever turned out
by Tech.
On November 15 comes the Commo
dores to battle with Auburn in Bir
mingham. Last year’s game still ran
kles and they are vowing dire things.
No further comment Is necessary.
The following Saturday Georgia
will be played in Atlanta. They hav*
lost a good many players, but they
still have McWhorter. The chances
are, however, that they will not be
quite as formidable as last year, when
they slipped one over on the over
confident Auburnlte*.
On the whole, it appears as if the
teams in the S. I. A. A. would be more
closelv‘matehed than usual, and some
sterling sport ought to he the result
with the interest far greater than
ever before.

Good Hunch for Anybody—Baseball and Politics Won't Mix
B.SMITH AB SO LUTE LY WON’T RUN FORCOUNCIL
A BOUT this Bill Smith-for-Coun-
cil business, now.
Bill’s first idea was that the
promotion of his alleged candidacy
was a big joke. Yesterday he decided
the joke was being carried too far.
So Bill, who is an open and onward
sort of man. came right out with his
side of it, and anybody who can un
derstand* the United States language
will have no difficulty in finding out
where Bill stands.
“This is ail blamed foolishness.”
began William Andrew. “It may be
more than that; I’m not prepared to
gay. But it’s blamed foolishness, to say
the least and the best about it.
"Me in politics? Why, here I am
42 years old, and I never even voted
but once in my life. I don’t know
anything about politics, and I don’t
want to know anything about politics.
Baseball is enough of a business for
me, and until I get through with base
ball you can bet I’m not going to mix
an in any other business—particu
larly politics.”
Bill admits that be registered as a
voting citizen of Atlanta.
“But that had nothing to do with
that Sixth Ward Councilman thing.”
Bill says. “Atlanta has paid me the
compliment of keeping me to manage
the Atlanta baseball club for a couple
of years.. This will be my home for
that length of time, and it seemed to
me only right that I should be a full-
fledged, regular citizen of Atlanta. J
might even vote, although I don't
know of anything to vote about very
much now.
“But so far as running for any of*
fice, or letting myself be run for any
office, or getting mixed up in politics
in any way—why, you just say for
Bill Smith that his entire business is
keeping Atlanta supplied with a reg
ular ball club, and that will keep him
out of politics and other mischief, and
you can bet on it.”

News of the Ring Game
TTillie Ritchie, lightweight champion,
is coming Chicago-way to give Charlie
White a chance to show his worth
against a kingpin battler.
* • *
Willie to-day wired Nate Lewis, man
ager of White, that he would leave Fris
co on Friday or Saturday for the East,
stopping off in Chicago long’enough to
look over the ground and go ten rounds
with White.
* • •
Milwaukee is ready to take the match,
three of the promoters already having
accepted Lewis’ offer. Ben Steinel like
ly will get the match if he can con
vince Ritchie to fight on a percentage.
» -» *
White is one of the best boys in
the middle West and, pound for pound,
he is considered the best lightweight in
that class.
* * *
Charlie never goes more than 129
pounds, though he take* on boys at 134
pounds at 3 o’clock.
* * *
White and Ritchie would draw at least
$25,000 in the Beer City.

Packey McFarland is going to got Into
action again. His manager, Emil Thiry.
to-dav accepted a match with Young
Nitohie. of Philadelphia, and. while no
club has yet hooked the affair, it is al
most certain Kenosha will close to-day.

Nitohie has fought all of the best
boys in ami around New York and he
believes he can hold Packey to a stiff
game. The weight will be 138 pounds at
3 o’clock.

Ben Steinel, matchmaker of the South
Side Athletic Club, of Milwaukee, who
is staging the Eddie McGoorty-Frank
Klaus match on September 23, has de
oided to give a championship belt to
the winner, making the match a sort of
an elimination contest. The victor is
to face Jimmy Clabby.

Racine has offered Johnny Poulon a
match with Young Slnnett. of Rook Is

improvement.
WHITE HOPES.
There are those who like to see a
pair of heavies in a scrap
As they flop around the ring and try
to spoil each other's map.
There are those who like to see a
fight between a pair of hopes
As they stumble on each other's feet
and move around like mopes.
There are. those who like to see a
giant flopped upon his back,
But I'd rather see two freight ears
knock each other off the track.
To our jaded notion, a scrap be
tween two heavyweights is about as
inspiring as a foot race between two
cows.
BRUTALITY.
“ft is a brutal, vicious game,” he
said,
And from the football field his motor
sped.
His auto ran across a stranger's neck
And left him there, a shattered, hope
less w reek.
And. as he left the stranger there
for d( ad.
"This football is a bruLul game," he
said.
I T seems there is no end to football
material at Tech this season. New
men are reporting e^ery day now.
Two cracks from Louisville prep
schools* w'ill be here in a few days.
They are. Mallory, a fast backfield
man, and Murphree, a big tackle, who
is also a punter and good baseball
pitcher. They are both corking men
and will give somebody a hard fight
for a place on the team. Gene Hill
and Carl Stone, two old Tech bAseball
stars, got busy and dug these men up
down In Louisville.
Two more new men from Chatta
nooga are coming to Tech. Patter
son, one of the men, and all-city cen
ter from (Chattanooga High School. Is
said to be a good man, while Kancler,
the other man, a speedy halrback
from the University of Chattafcodfcu
circles the ends almost at will. Kin
der is also a trackman and baseball
player. Both men will report for prac
tice this week.
There are two other men, who, if
secured, are sure to beat somebody
out of a place on the varsity. One
of them is a big fullback who punts
56 and GO yards with ease. He stands
G feet 2 and weighs* about 195 pounds.
He 'is some itian. The other is a
heavy lineman jwith a lot of expe
rience.
This season bids fair to be one of
the greatest in the history of Tech.
Boy Wins Quarter
Swimming Title
NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—The 440-
yard national swimming champion
ship wqs captured at Travers Island
by .r. C. Wheatley, a New York youth,
who entered the competition unat
tached and who has never figured 111
a championship meet before. Wheat-
ley had to beat such stars as Gilbert
Tomlinson, the boy wonder of Phila
delphia, and the veteran L. B. Good
win. Wheatley’s time was 6 minutes
4 2-5 seconds.
At the end of the race Goodwin,
who finished fourth, announced his
retirement from swimming.

him out in the fifth round. The
fight took place in Canterbury Music

No More Pop-Pop Racing Until a Week From Nexl Saturday
GRAVES, RICHARDS AND SWARTZ WIN FINALS
T HE final performance of the mo
torcycle racers at the Motor
drome before their trip to
Chattanooga was marked by desper
ate riding by all hands, and It is not
to be charged to prudence that the
squad was, able to make the trip all
in one section to the Mountain City,
where the members will race during
the G. A. R. reunion.
Morty Graves and Tex Richards
had It out again, and Morty and his
Excelsior rather put it over Tex. Tho
latter, however, took hold of another
leg on Bill Stoddard’s cup when he
copped the Southern championship
race for the second time. Tex has
only to win once more In this event
and the cup will be his—unless some
body sneaks In and wins it three
times in a row before he can put It
over.
Harry Schwartz had a rather easy
time in/the sweepstakes, run under
the French point system. He was
first in all three heats, for a score of
30 points.* Loekner was second each
time, and made 18, while Glenn
achieved two third places and Renel
got the other.
