A PsyeHoLOBICAL
DRAMA OF THE
PRESENT DAY.
Heisman Warns That Auburn Is
.
Strong and Aggressive—Ducote,
.
Bonner and Revington Stars.
.
By J. W. Heisman.
HE superb game the Plainsmen
put up last Saturday against
the twice champions of the
West has certainly served to put new
e R life and ambition
Rin the Yellow
g gl - Jackets, and they
| Baa i realize to the full
%ths.t they are in
f:;-:i*-*"i ino such deplora
i m g ble state as was
o%\ { pear Alexander:
§ . ’*"w' § they are far-from
§h.Y AR { | Deing on the verge
: "‘@)%}W i of tears because
ko i 3i of having no more
B i | worlds to conquer.
SVR Yes, the game
44 7 AQM: means much to
& % . W the Jackets, for
ti 8 Fe SRI { not only do they
SR SN want to go
il =t cnsc through their
third full season without a defeat be
ing chalked up against them, but
they understand that If they can win
from Auburn they will 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 strong in thelr
admiration for Ducote'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 recognized one of the
very best linesman they have seen in
several seasons. It is to be freely ad
mitted that Auburn possesses in these
three men a trio of vndoubted stars
ok b
1 daresay my warnings regarding
the rapidly growing strength of the
Plainsmen will now be regarded. 1
have heen pointing out that there was
no sense in anyone assuming that
Tech wonld show a supefiority of
anvthing like £0 points against Au
burn—those who assert it ask alto
gether too much of Tech and give
,seredit to Auburn for a'together too
little: and T am elad that Auburn has
had an opnortunitv to reveal her true
strength before Tach went against!
her. Now, it I€*plain to he seen. that
Tech will have every reason to be
“tickled to death” if gshe even wins, let
alone running up a score.
The fact is. that defeat three weeks
ago hv Davidson was the making of
the Anburn team. It woke them up
and showed them how much better
they conld plav if they really tried
like the Davidson Wild Cats trv. Pos
siblv thev salt a hit ashamed of them
selves—as a team alwavs feslgs when
outnlaved bv a much lighter acere
gation. and that was the very tonic
tha Oranee and Rlne warriors needed.
T have alwavs sald there was an im
mense amount of latent strength in
the Anhurn team, and f they ever
learned to trot 1t ant when the occa
slon called far it, they would make a
formidohle team for any eleven {o
line up against. |
+S & |
Yes, Aubnrn will nregent much the
heet team Mech will have gmane un,
against this season. We learn thev
paid enmnarativelvy lttla attention
last week to dritling against Ohio
State's far+wations (and so much het
ter. therafore, is thelr flne showine
against the Buckeves), but keot
themealvag accupled from earlv HI
late drilling on Teoch's formations.
Thic ehonld have them in fine shane
to intelligentlv meet tha Jacket nlavs,
while the brand of defensive power
thev showed in Monteomerv is enand
enoueh ta make al' sorts of trouble
for the best team that ever stepped
out on a eridiron. 1
In addition, T really look for Au.
burn to snring some new stnff on
Mech. Tnm nratty well satisfled that
the whale Anburn camn has trained
and worked from the firat dAay of this
season with an eve sineled on the‘
Tech team. and that thev have ex
nerimented extensivelv with a lot of
stuff that the Tech sconts have seen
nothine of the entire season.
To he sure. Tech has held back
one or two iittle things also. and
Thuredav will be our last chance to
see whether thev are any good or not.
Mavhe they will work out well and
mavhe not—who ean tell?
At anv rate, T am very glad that
we are to have for the wind-un of
the season a =ame that will be more
than worth while watching and obp
posed to us a team that will strain
us to the verv limit.

Roggssgrrilmvm\rn Monday. Thelr scrubs
played against the varsity and gave
them a tough fight. Nobody was hurt,
h°§§§me. of Tech Hi, was back In the
ame vesterday for the first time since
fhp Chattanooga game. His presence
will aid Tech Hi materially.
The Boys' Hi cripples are rapidly
rounding 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 exnccts to work many passes. |
It will be interesting to note the dif
ferent styles of nlay used by the two
schools. Teeh Hi. coached by Boozer
Pitts, an old Auburn star, uses the old
Auburn style of hard line plunging and|
apin 4 runs.

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 ather
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
try, 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 certalnly in for their share
of hard work. Coach Donahue had his
men out early yesterday afternoon, and
every man was glven all the practice
he could stand up under.
Not satistied with the showing Au
burn made on the defensive agalnst
Ohlo State, the Auburn coach has his
squad on the defense Monday against
the serubs. The scrubs tried everything
in their maneuvers and were entirely
unsuccessful against the varsity squad.
Coach Denahue is hoping to develop
his team during these three days so
that they will be able to stand up
under the powerful offensive attack eof
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 bo! - 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
scratehes on the faces of those Au
burn heroes. If no injurfes are sus
tained during this week, the Plainsmen
should enter the battle on ‘‘Turkey
Day’ in the pink of condition?
2 O x(
UNIVERSITY, ALA., Nov. 27.—Coach
Kelly threw his scrubs against the var
sity eleven here Mongday afternoon in
one of the flercest scrimmages held this
month. The ailr was chilling and the
teams had on theiy fight shirts. The
argument continuéd long after night
fall, by the light of the moon. Since
the praetice 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 b%va hard praetice without serim
mage. ednesday the teamn will leave
for Birmingham to meet Camp Gor
don Thursday morning.
¢ Brckers’ x
CLEMSON COL E, Nov. 27.—Just
two more days of practice remains be
fore the Davidson game, so Coach Jiggs
Donahue is making the seconds count
in preparation for the battle with the
Wildcats ‘n Charlotte, A dummy scrim
mage was held Monday afternoon, the
scrubs using the Davidson formations
and the varsity given a thorough drill
in breaking them up.
Toward the end of the praectice the
entire corps, led by the college band
marched to Riggs Field to cheer the
team. Enthugiasm ig 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 wlll upset the dope. The
team will be in perfect shape when the
whistle blows Thursday.
Coach Donahue, 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 F 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 warious 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
glashed.
A 154-game schedule, Johnson asserts,
probably will be played, but an attempt
will be made to arrange a schedwle with
sufficient open dates to make possible
the practlca?ellminatlon of double-head
ers.

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 bantamweight director
of the Indians, who were over
‘whelmed 98 to 0 by Tech, avows
in public - print aut he was
given a raw deal by the Georgia
' School \{Technology. He told lgob
Folwell, ®oo states the Philadelphia
Inquirer, that “I certainly was dis
gusted at the poor showing accorded
my team by Georgia Tech last Sat
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 fleld dis
played good sportsmanship against
my young Indian players. Coach
Helgert, of Georgia Tech, would not
allow the referee and head linesman
to keep time, but made us accept one
of thelr players as the sole time
keeper, The result was = the first
quarter was twenty minutes, the sec
ond, nineteen minutes; the third
quarter was fifteen minutes, and the
final quarter was only ten minutes,
called hecause of darkness, lam sure
of this, as two of us kept a stop watch
and we tallied on the time, During
the hi'ves the Georgia 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 believed that Georgia
Tech could beat Penn in a return
games.”
This statement concerning the
statemoent of the Carlisle Indians
with their game with Georgia Tech
was made by Coach Neal F. Harris, of
the Carlisle eleven, 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 ecom
pare two teams which has played the
same eleven, even though the inter
vening time is only of one week, He
[chnnged the subject by speaking wel!
of the Penn players and how they
!shnwarl the best sportsmanship dur
‘ng the game, They didn’t seem de
lsimus of roughing up their gmaller
and weaker opponents. When a
Carlisle player fell he was often help
ed to his feet by one of the Penn
players.
|e B ¥
- 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. Helsman refused on the
ground that the Carlisle team should
be in good condition for such a con
test.
At the very outset, the Indlans
started “piling 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, hut 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 eaution the officlals about
this. and stated he wanted them to
wng:h this part of the play.
Harris returned and pleaded for
shorter periods, Helsman agreed to
play shorter quarters, provided the
Indians would play cleanly and
would eliminate their “piling up” tac
tles. Consequently the third period
was twelve minutes and tha fourth
curtailed to seven and one-half,
b g P
As to the poor sportsmanship of
the Tech players, it is 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 affaif, but there were
no end of injuries, infliction o penal
ties and substitutions. ‘
It seems to be a hard matter for
a coach to get a licking and not try |
to retallate in some manner. Of
course, Bob Folwell appreciated
Coach Helsman 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

ClNEAEnmeee™ would permit the
fight But as soon as word reached
Florida that the club planned to put
on the ocontest, announcement was
made from the executive offices that
no such affair would be permitted
within the confines of Florida, s
When Fitz and I were notifled of
this, the news Immediately was given
to the papers and a statement was
{ssued sa.{ing 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
upproxima}aly the game amount of
money which the Florida Athletic
Ciub had promised. * Stuart's bid was
the best pf a number which we had
receivel 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
goneé on a tour with a vaudeville
company. Fitz was a blg drawing
card and the show during the first
few weeks was a big success, itz,
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 performandes with a trick that
many boxers have tried and at which
few have succeeded. He would hit
the punching bag with all his force,
snap the cord and send the hag
hurtling inte the audience. Many
pergons thought that the cord had
been cut, but this was not true. Bob
really had the strength in his puneh

to snap the cord whenever he hit it
from a certain angle. On two occa
sions, Boh 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 the 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 hlack
smith shops and spend his morning
hours at each one of these making
horseshoes. On each he wou'ld
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,
o e
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
volee which was rare in its sweet
ness,
“Oh, Promlise Me,” was Bob's fa
vorite song and no man who ever
heard Bob sing it could forget. Rob
could put intense feeling into his
songs and many men went to Bob's
training qua"termnoro in the hope of
hearing him'sing than of seeing him
in his workouts.
Fitz, as 1 have stated before, made
a oig hit as a headliner of the
vaudevi'le troupe and everything
went along niecely 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 Note.) This is the six
teenth chapter of a serias of articles
by Jim Corbett which deal with the
career of Bob Fitzsimmons. Few
men knew Fiez as Corbett knew him,
.and so thece stories reveal some in
cidents in the life of Fitzsimmons
that never before have been printed.

off our nuts a bit, and got to yelling
for Tech to roll up the score—roll up
the score over every team, so that
up East they'd have to admit we ot
the South were THERE.
But what of it, after all?
Let's remember that Pittsburg has

Heiéman Knows Nothing of S. I
. .
A. A. Rule Which Bars First
. .
Year Men Thanksgiving.
By Reuben A. Lewis.
HERE is one little matter that
I is far from settled,
Mike Donahue, coach of the
Auburn eleven, 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 expeot
to oppose Dan Whelchel and Judy
Harlan, the freshmen on the Yellow
Jackets,
Coach Heisman avows that he
knows nothing that will prevent Har
lan and Whelchel from opposing the
Plainsmen. He will conduct an ins
vestigation today, and will seek to
learn if the agreements are binding,
o - -
Should 1t develop that the Tech
representatives are bound by any
proviso, he will be in a fortunate
position. Fer Tech has a nice queta
of substitutes. Sherty 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 whieh
Auburn is woefully weak.
The Plainsmen are bereft of sub
stitutes, 'who can ecompare with the
regulars, When Bonner was disabled
in the third period of the Ohio State
eame, he was replaced by Blackshear.
He was a game little fellow, but too
light to stop the drive of a big man.
The difference was apparent, and
,\likod‘mmhua confessed quite openly
that ¥he matter of substitutes was his
one weak point, »
ok b
Should any of the Tigers be foreed
to retire from the game, Tech 1s
going to derive a great benefit. Au
burn was uninjured by the terrvific
battering of Saturday. 'The manner
n which the Plainsmen withstood the
fierce tack'es and mass plays showed
that they were in good condition.
The Turkey Day game will not be
a repetition of the Carlisle game, with
frequent truces for the removal of the
injured and winded. There should
be a drive and a verve to the game
that has bheen absent in previous en«
gagements,
