Heisman Warns That Auburn Is
Strong and Aggressive—Ducote,
Bonner and Revington Stars,
By J. W. Heisman.

put up last Saturday against
: the twice champions of the
West has certainly served to put new
EN” life and ambition

third full season without a defeat be-
Ing chalked up agninst them, but
they understand that if they can win
from Auburn they inll undoubtedly
be ranked ahead of Ohio State and
that their football will probably be
considered superior to anything in
either the South or the West.
The Jackets were strogng in their
admiration for Ducoté’s powerful
plunging, sure tackling and excellent
punting, They also thought mighty
well of Revington’s line bucking and
his sterling defensive play, while in
Bonner they recognrized one of the
very best linesman they have seren in
several seasons, It is to be freely ad
mitted that Auburn possesses in these
three men a trio of undoubted stars
3 o B
I daresay my warnings regarding
the rapidly growing strength of the
Plainsmen will now be regarded. 1
have been pointing out that there was
no sense in anyone assuiming that
Tech would show a superiority of
anyvthing like 50 points against Au
burn—those who assert it ask alto
gether too much of Tech and give
credit to Auburn for altogether too
little: and T am glad that Auburn has
had an opportunitv to reveal her true
strength before Tech went azainst‘
her. Now, it is plain to be seen. that
Tech will have every reason to be
“tickled to death” if she even wing, let
alone runmng up a score. |
The fart is, that defeat three weeks
ago hv Davidson was the making of
the Aunburn team. It woke them up
and showed them ‘how much better
they conld play if they really tried
like the Davidson Wild Cats trv. Pos
siblv thev felt a bit ashamed of them
selves—ag a team alwavs feels when
outnlaved hv a much lighter aegre
gation. and that was the very tonic
the Oranee and Blue warriors needed.
T have always sald there was an im
mense amount of latent strength in
the Anburn team, and if they ever)
Jearned to trot it out when fhe.orca-‘
gion called for it,'they would make a
formidahle team for any eleven o]
line up against.
o o+ R
Yes., Aubnrn will nresent much the
heat team Tech will have gnne un
agninst this season. We learn thev
paid enmnarativelv little attention
last week to drilling against Ohin
State’'a formations (and g 6 much bet
ter therefore, is their fine show‘nz‘
against the Buckeyes), but kent
themselves occupied from eartv Hll|
Jate Arilling on Tech's fnrmaflnns.‘
This <hanld have them in fine shane
to intellizently meet the Jacket plays, ‘
whila the brand of defensive power
thev showed in Montgomery is znndl
enonrh to make al' sorts of 'frm)blnl
for the best team that ever stepped
out on a eridiron.
In addition, I really look for Au
purn to spring some new stuff on
Mmech, 1 am vpretty well satisfled that
the whole Anburn camn has trained
and worked from the first day of this
season with an eve sineled on the
Tech team, and that they have ex
perimented extensively with a lot of
stuff that the Tech scouts have seen
nothine of the entire season.
To be sure. Tech has held back
one or two little things also, andl
Thursdav will be our last chance tc
see whether thev are any good or not. |
Mavhe they will work out well and
mavbe not—who can tell?
At anv rate. T am very glad that
we are to have for the wind-un of
the season a game that will be more
than worth while watching and op
posed to us a team that will strain
us to the very limit,

Boy<' Hi Crinnles
Gettine in Shape
gy ALBERT H. STATON.
¢ Hi and Tech Hi both had a
rolgg";j-rimpmee Monday. Their scrubs
played against the varsity and gave
them a tough fight. Nobody was hurt,
yever.
ho]:‘{sl‘oene. of Tech Hi, was back in the
game yesterday for the first time since
the Chattanooga game. His presence
will aid Tech Hi materially.
The Boys' Hi cripples are rapidly
younding into shape. Collings was out
and showed the same old propensity of
snagging the ball out of the ether for,
long gains. With him in the game, Boys
Hi expects to work many passes. l
It will be interesting to note the dif-|
ferent styles of play used by the two|
schools. Tech Hi, cosched by Boozer
Pitts, an old Auburn star, uses the old
Auburn style of hard line plunging and
i end runs.
‘wl‘;’;\rj;"‘z}fl. coached by T. F. Wood, of
Notre Dame, is well versed in the West- |
ern art of passing and open éxlay very |
few straight plays being used. ‘l’t wiil
be the old battle betwen the hammer|
and the rapler. ~ :
In Bearden Tech Hi has a good end
and bmken‘fleld runner, and In®Lyle a
good line plunger.
Knox. ft?r Boys' Hi, is probably the
best broke nfield runner in the prep
jeague. A. Staton or Lemon does the
passing for the gang. J

EWANEE, TENN, Nov. 27—
S Once the Royal Purple Tiger
must quench his thirst for
Commodore gore,, and once again
he will wend his way toward Nash
ville on Thanksgiving to grapple for
supremacy with his ancient rival. He
goes down the mountain realizing that
to register a win he must play one of
the hardest games in its history.
Never were two teams more evenly
matched, both on paper and other
wise. In weight they are almost evenly
balanced—about 165 to the man. From
the standpoint of experience they are
on a par. Both teams have given
generously to the service of our coun
tity, and most of the men on the
teams are young, inexperienced and
playing their first year of college foot
ball.
The dope is about evenly distribut
ed. Sewanee defeated Kentucky State
by a greater score than did Vander
bilt. Vandy registered an unearned
victory over Alabama, while Sewanee
could do no better than a tie. Van
derbilt has suffered more defeats, but
they have encountered vastly stronger
teams. Reports come in that, al
though they have often been out
classed, they have never been out
fought. With such a team as this to
face the Tiger fully realizes what he
has to go up against.

Tigers Will Enter Tech Game in
'
Perfect Trim—Auburn Wants
.
Still Stronger Defense.
ÜBURN, ALA., Nov. 26 —There
A has been no rest for the Plainsmen
during the last three weeks, and if
Monday evening’s:work is any indication
of what will come during the remainder
of this week before Thanksgiving, the
Tigers are certainly in for thelr share
10! hard work. Coach Donahue had his
‘men out early yesterday afternoon, and
‘every man was given all the practice
he could stand up under. \
Not satistied with the showing ' Au
burn made on ' the defensive against
Ohijo State, the Auburn coach .has his
squad on the defense Monday against
the scrubs. The scrubs tried everything
in their maneuvers and were entirely
unsuccessful against ‘the varsity squad.
Coach Donahue is hoping to develop
his team during these three days so
that they will be able to stand up
under the powerful offensive attack of
Georgia Tech. Auburn men think now
that wonders will never cease, and, if
this is so, Auburn may have a chance
to beat Tech. ,
The reason for this bold statement lies
in the fact that the Tiger squad came
out of the Ohio State game without a
single injury of any kind. The only
evidences of the terrific fight are a few
‘scratches on the faces of those. Au
‘burn heroes. If no injurles are sus
tained during this week, the Plainsmen
'should enter the battle on “Turkey
‘Day” in the pink of condition.

__UNIVERSITY, ALA., Nov. 27.—Coach
Kelly threw his scrubs against the var
sity eleven here Mongday afternoon in
one of the fiercest scrimmages held this
‘month. The air was chlll!n% and the
teams had on their fight shirts. - The
‘argumvm continued long after night
\-fall, by the light of the moon. Since
‘lhe ?x'actico of iast Friday, which was
the last one until Monday, the team
‘had lost in accuracy. Another scrim
‘mage is to be held this afternoon, fol
lowed by a hard practice without serim
‘mage._ Wednesday the team will leave
for Birmingham to meet Camp Gor
‘,dnn Thursday gxorning. % /
CLEMSON COLL'.EGE, Nov. 27.—Just
two more days es practice remains be
fore the Davidson game, so Coach Jiggs
Donahue is making the seconds count
in preparation for the battle with the
|“'lldcats ‘n Charlotte. A dummy scrim
mage was held Monday afternoon, the
lsorubs uwsing the Davidson formations
and the varsity given a thorough drill
in breaking them wup.
Toward the end of the practice the
entire corps, led by the college band,
marched to Riggs Field to cheer the
team. Enthusiasm is at fever pitch on
the campus and in spite of the fact that
’Davidosn is a big favorite in the bet
‘ting, the Clemson men are confident
‘that they will upset the dope. The
team will be in perfect shape when the
whistle blows Thursday.
Coach Dgnahue, who is saying very
little these days, predicts that those
persons who expect to see Davidson
pass his team to death are in for a big
surprise, and further says that the Ti
gers will show a drive on that day
which will give Fetzer's team a merry
time.
There is a grimness about the prac
tices which foretells that every Clemson
man is going into that game determinea
to play the game of his life for a vie
tory.

In 1918, Says Ban
CHICAGO, Nov. 27.—American League
baseball clubs will open the 1918 hase
ball season regardless of war conditions,
according to a statement made here by
President Ban B. Johnson. Even though
the various clubs may be shy many of
their star players because of the draft
Johnson said, the league will operate as
usual and endeavor to give the public
the best possible brand of sport.
Johnson predicts, however, that the
days of the old ‘“‘war time” contracts
are over and that the salaries paid the
ball players will be pretty liberally
slashed.
A 154-game schedule, Johnson asserts,
probably will be played, but an attempt
will be made to arrange a schedule with
sufficient oYen dates to make possible
t*]e practical elimination of double-head

~ HOWLING
Claims Tech's Treatment of In
| ;
dians Was Disgusting—Tells
- Folwell Received Raw Deal.
DD “Disgruntled Coaches” Neal
A F. Harris, coach of Carlisle.
The bantamwelght director
of the Indians, who were over-
Whelmed 98 to 0 by Tech, avows
in public print that he was
given a raw deal by the Georgia
School of Technology. He told Bob
Folwell, so states the Philadelphia
Inquirer, that “I certainly was dis
gusted at the poor showing accorded
‘my team by Georgia Tech last Bat
urda."”
Through Bob Folwell, coach of the
Pennsylvania eleven, the following
lament was made:
“I certainly was disgusted at the
poor treatment accorded my team by
Georgia Tech last ‘Saturday. Penn
today both on and off the field dis
played good sportsmanship against
my young Indian players. Coach
Heisert, of Georgia Tech, would not
allow the referee and head linesman
to keep time, but made us accept one
of their players as the sole time
keeper, The result was the first
quarter was twenty minutes, the @ec
ond, nineteen minutes; the third
quarter was fifteen minutes, and the
final quarter was only ten minutes,
called because of darkness. lam sure
of this, as two of us kept a stop watch
and we tallied on the time. During
the halves the Georgi® Tech threat
ened the officials with the statement
that if they were not sure of their
penalties against Tech that the crowd
would mob them. Billy Sunday wit
nessed the game, addressed the stu
dents between the halves, and told
them that he belleved that Georgia
Tech could beat Penn in a return
games.” ‘
This statement concerning the
statement of the Carlisle Indians
with their game with Georgia Tech
was made by Cqach Neal F. Harris, of
the Carlisle elewen, to Coach *“Bob”
Folwell in the dressing rooms after
the Carlisle-Penn game yesterday
afternoon.
When asked if he thought that
Penn, at present, could defeat the
Georgia Tech team, he said that he
couldn’t say, as it was hard to com
pare two teams which has played the
same eleven, even though the inter
vening time is only of one week. He
changed the subject by speaking well
of the Penn players and how they
showed the best sportsmanship dur
“ng the game. They didn’t seem de
isimus of roughing up thelr smaller
‘and weaker opponentd. When a
’ Carlig]e player fell he was often help
ed to his feet by one of the Penn
players.
| g ok
Poor Lo! When the facts are re
viewed it would hardly seem that the
Indians were roughly treated. Be
fore the game, Carlisle asked for
shorter periods, although a $3.000
guarantee was to be paid for sixty
minutes. Heisman refused on -the
ground that the Carlisle team should
be in good condition for such a con
test.
i At the very outset, the Indians
started “plling up” after the ball was
dead. When a Tech halfback was
downed, it was no unusual sight for
an Indian to leap in the air and come
to earth on the head or body of a
downed player. There was no excuse
for this rough play, but the officials
did not penalize the Indians for this
during the first half. Tech was called
constantly for offside play.
Between , the halves, Coach Hels
‘man did -caution the officials about
this, and stated he wanted them to
wefh this part of the play.
Harris returned and pleaded for
shorter periods. Heilsman agreed to
play shorter quarters, provided the
Indians would - play cleanly and
would elimlnate thelr “piling up” tac
tics. Consequently the third period
was twelve minutes and the fourth
curtailed to seven and one-half.
g o
As to the poor sportsmanship of
the Tech players, it .s rather exag
gerated. Quite often the Indians were |
lifted to their feet by the helping hand
of a paler opponent. ‘
It is true that the game was called
on account of darkness. It was a
long-drawn-out affair, but there were
no end of injuries; infliction of penal
ties and substitutions.
It seems to be a hard matter for
a coach to get a licking and not try
to retaliate in some manner. Of
course, Bob Folwell appreciated
Coach Heisman being “merciful” to
him by not running up the Penn
score, He wanted to let friend Heis
know what Harris said, and thought
the best way to do this was in a Phil
adelphia paper!

Club Couldn’t Stage. Battle
Scene Is Shifted to Dallas
FEW days after the articles of
A of agreement had been signed
by Bob Fitzsimmons and my
self for a contest before the Florida
FUP——————tn A thletic Club, of
i gfi" “"““9“3 } Jacksonville,
iAR % | sometime in
§ %SoW § 19957 word came
T T .1 1
‘ AN s that the club
38 ¥ :.»545;' could not stage
the Qout in that
» \\:& : A city. It had as-
R sumed at the
i "5;__..; } time that it made
; i * the bid for the
& a— contest that the
AR * would permit the
fight But as soon as word reached
Florida that the club planned to put
on the. contest, announcement was
made from the executive offices that
no such affair would be permitted
within the confines of Florida.
When Fitz and I were notified of
this, the news immediately was given
to the papers and a statement was
issued saying that new bids for the
staging of the contest were in order.
Then Dan Stuart, a prominent West
ern promoter of that era, came to
the front and made us an offer of
approeximately the same amount of
money which the Florida Athletic
Club had promised. Stuart’s bid was
the best of a number which we had
received and we accepted it.
Stuart planned to put on the bout
in Dallas, Texas, and arrangements
started at once for the staging of the
contest in that city along about
August 1, 1895.

Meanwhile, Bob Fitzsimmons had
gone on a tour with/ a wvaudeville
company. Fitz was a big drawing
card and the show during the first
few weeks was a big success. Fitz,
as was the custom with most boxers
in that day, put on a boxing exhibi
tion as his act. A year or so before
he had played the leading part in
“The Honest Blacksmith,” a melo
drama, but didn't like that sort of
theatrical work. The vaudeville end
of the game, which permitted him to
exhibit his puglistic ‘prowess, was
something more to his liking.
Bob always climaxed his vaude
ville performances with a trick that
many boxers have tried and at which
few have succeeded. s He would hit
the punching bag with all his force,
snap the cord and send the bag
hurtling into the audience. Many
persons thought that the cord had
been cut, but this was nat true. Bob
really had the strength in his punch

to snap the cord whenever he hit it'
from a certain angle. On two occa
sions, Bo» drove the bag into the
faces of men sitting in the “bald head
row” and these fellows promptly
threatened a suit for damages. They
didn'‘t relish zhe stunt nearly as much
as the rest of the aaudience. In both
instances Bob made settlement with
them,
Fitz always made a decided hit in
every town where he played, due to .
the fact that immediately upon en
tering he would hunt up a few black
smith shops and spend his mornlng‘
hours dt each one of these making
horseshoes. On each he would
stamp his initials and distribute them
to his friends, or as souvenirs among'
the audience. Of course, there was
always a scramble to secure posses
sion of. the Fitzsimmons’ horseshoess,
and many of them are still treasured
as trophies by the old timers. |
b & |
Those who knew Fitz in the earlier
days remember him for many things;
included was his singing. Bob never
gave exhibitions on the stage, but
he had a remarkable tenor voice. Had
it been cultivated, there is a likeli
hood that Bob might have become
almost as famous a warbler as a
pugilist. Many of Bob’s friends fre
quently enjoined him to to take a few
lessons in singing. But Bob con
tented himself with an untrained
voice which was rare in its sweet
ness.
“Oh, Promise Me,” was Bob's fa
vorite song and no man who ever
heard Bob sing it could forget. Pob
could put intense feeling into his
songs and many men went to Bob's
training_quarters more in the hope of
hearing “him ging than of seeing him
in his workouts.
" Fitz, as I have stated before, made
a voig hit as ‘a headliner of the
vaudeville ‘troupe and everything
went along nicely for him until he
reached Syracuse, And then came
the most unfortunate incident of Bob
Fitzsimmons{ life; one which caused
him great financial loss, great mental
anguish and his arrest and trial on
the charge of manslaughter.
It was the «death of Con Riordan,
his sparring partner.
(Editor's Noto.f) This is the six
teenth chapter of a series of articles
byrclim Corbett which deal with the
career of Bob Fitzsimmons. Few
men knew Fiez as Corbett knew him,

that never before have been printed.

' . :
A. A. Rule Which Bars First

Year Men Thanksgiving,
/- :
By Reuben A. Lewis.
HERE is one little matter that
is far from settled,
Mike Donahue, coach of the
Auburn ecleven, has stated that
Trapp, a first-year man, would not
play against Auburn Inasmuch as the
S. I A. A. rules barred him. He in
timated that Auburn did not expect
to oppose Dan Whelchel and Judy
Harlan, the freshmen on the Yellow
Jackets.
Coach Helsman avows that he
knows nothing that will prevent Har
lan and Whelchel from opposing the
Plainsmer., He will conduct an in
vestigation today, and will seek to
learn if the agreements are binding.
o
Skould it develop that the Tech
“epresentatives are bound by any
proviso, he will be In a fortunate
position. For Tech has a nice quota
of substitutes. Shorty Guill will be
shifted to fullback, Higgins or Mathes
to guard and Ulrich or Fincher to an
end. The Yellow Jackets would not
be embarrassed to any great extent,
but it is naturally the desire of Coach
Heisman that the regular line-up be
used in the final engagement. *
~ There is one particular in which
Auburn_is woefully weak. 5
~ The Plainsmen are bereft of sub
istitu!ns, who can compare with the
regulars. When Bonner was disabled
in the third period of the Ohlo State
- zame, he was replaced by Blackshear.
| He was a game little fellow, but too
'lis!ht to stop thc drive of a big man.
' The difference was apparent,, and
‘Mile Donahue confessed quite openly
that the matter-of substitutes was hig
one weak point. ’
|B f b
Should any of the Tigers be forced
Im retire from the game, Tech is
going to derive a great benefit. Au
‘burn was uninjured by the terrific
battering of Saturday. The manner
'in which the Plainsmen withstood the
flerce tack'es and mass plays showed
that they were in good condition.
The Turkey Dav eame will not be
a repetition of the f-arlisle game, with
frequent truces for the removal of the
