Oct. 29.—But one more season on the flat and possibly ' not that, and then the king of sprinters, Roseben, Is to be pointed for the an nual -cross-country championship stakes. His owner, Davy Johnson, hav. Ing subjugated the sprinting world, now longs for honors among the stee plechasers, and plans to use Rose ben as the medium. Roseben has all the necessary quali fications of a great steeplechaser- speed and ability to carry the weight. Racing between jumps merely consists of a succession of short sprints, and any horse than can carry weight and has speed can more than earn his live lihood between the flags. Of course, he must be able to jump, but as horses that are nimble on their feet usually jump well, Roseben should be able to take to that nart of the game THE GAME Tech defeated Davidson Saturday afternoon by a score of 4 to 0 In a well played game on Tech field. In the first half Brown made a kick' from placement. Otherwise, neither team could score. THE MORAL .Tb«rs‘s ■ moral dua because of Tech's victory. After the battle, roach Graham, of the North Carolina team. said. "W# would have beateu them under last year's rules." The thought which comes to us. brethren, on this cheerful Monday morning, is that the games this year are not being played under last year’a rnles. and the moral Is that the guys who do not take n top ple to this fact are Just a year behind. •There lie those" who saw the game who Insist that Davidson played the better ball. But this Is obviously tommyrot. David son did gain ground more profusely than Te«*b. but the galtia were not sufficiently continuous, except Just once, to endnuger Tecb'a goal. This was In the first half. when the Tar Heel* made four ••first downs" for a total of f>0 yards, and ad vanced the ball to Tech's 1-ynrd Hue. Here the Yellow Jacket* held and Dnvld- sou lost the ball on the one and solitary occasion when their attack looked formid able. Tech did prnrtlcnlly n* much in the sec ond half. In three "first downs," the At lantans carried the ball 37 yards, and with in the danger line. Then came a fourth, then a 15-yard penalty, then nnothcr fum ble, which was the disastrous end of an attempted triple pass. This ended Tecli'a really geod wotk In advnnclug the ball. Atldo from these two predatory expedl- tlona Into the enemy'a territory, the two teams i\ent moat of their time itewlng •round lu the center of the field. Gen erally Davidson had the ball, but live limes she lost It on downs, and three times she was forced to punt. The North CarollunnH could gala ground easily, but not continuously. They played nice foot ball. but It was of the 1906 brand. Brown and Hubert were the Tech stars. Brown kicked ua pretty a goal from place ment as ever n man saw. It was his first public attempt, and the first successful place kick ever tniwi* on Tech field dur ing n game. The kick was made from the 33-yard Hue.- Hubert's work In ruuultig with the ball was . excellent. For Davidson, Whitaker, her right guard, was the star, anti he looks like all-South- ern material. No Hue man has shown more hrllllnnt work on Tech field this The line up: Davidson. Fdgertou.. .. GREAT ROSEBEN MAY BE RUN IN STEEPLECHASES eaally and become an adept after a lit. tie echoollng. Some of our greatest steeplecha,* horses have been sprinters pure ami simple. Ballaratt could scarcely rac. more than five-eighths of a mile the flat, but through the field he could eaally go two and a half miles and won many brilliant races. 0000000000 t >000O00000O £> 0 OOO SATURDAY’S RESULTS.

In either, rase, the ball must leave his possession while he Is on the line of scrimmage. Under the same rule. It was voted that In case of a punt out, the catcher of the kick need not raise hla hand as a signal for a fair catch. The committee declared that the rule preventing hurdling Is Intended to ap ply only to the man carrying the ball, and was passed to prevent a dangerous play. It Is Intended to allow, under -hurdling In the line,” stepping over a prostrate player, one foot at a time, even though both feet of the runner be momentarily off the ground at the •ame time. The section under rule II. which pro vides that no player of the side which has the ball shell be In motion at the moment when the ball Is put Into play, Is construed to mean that this will not prevent a player from running back ward from the scrimmage line toward Ills own goal line. Under the section of rule 11, which provides that none of the five men oc cupying the middle positions, renter, gttnril or tackle, may drop back front the lino of scrimmage on the offense, the committee declares: "If a captain, during the progress of the game, wishes to change a center, guard or tackle to a position In the back field, or to the position of end, he may do so by speaking to the referee, but no player thus vacating the posi tion of center, guard or tackle shall thereafter during the game go back to any one of these positions." In discussing rule 14, the committee decides: "When a forward pnss touches the ground In the field of play, without touching the player at either side, the ball Is dead, and goes to the opponents on the spot where the pass Is made, ex cept Irt case that the hall crosses the goal lino without touching a placer of either side, when It Is a touchback. In both Instances, the penalty may not be refused. "In nil cases of unlawful pass',where the bull goes to the opponents on the spot where the pass was attempted, the ball is dead." )••••••••«•••••) i JOHN 0. KEENE IS WORKING FOR RADTKE'S REINSTATEMENT Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 29.—John Oliver Keene, who had much to do with the development of Jockey Herman Radtke, the'boy under suspension In the Hast, will assist In the movement In behalf of the rider to secure his restoration, so that he can ride at a California track during the winter. Keene, who ta here with hi* yearling thoroughbreds, believed that bad asso ciate* during idle hour* caused the downfall of the crack Jockey Radtke. rather than any shortcoming* on Hu* race truck. "Radtke rode many winners for me," said Keene, "ami 1 can't believe he was doing anything .mot e than violate rid ing orders sometimes, when he thought he could do better.” Keene, it l* understood. ha* been asked from semi-official sources or the Jockey club concerning the habit* of Radtke.

Schools of Georgia The follow ing article by Jesse Sibley, now'connected with Stone Moun tain .Beliooi, throws Home Interesting light bn tfiO athletic situation among the prep schools about Atlanta. Mr. Sibley la « graduate nt Vanderbilt, The where be played football and baseball, and last year he coached the Geor gia Military Academy. As there must undoubtedly be "another side, to this question, Georgian will gladly give-space to.lt. By JESSE B. SIBLEY. a persona! grudge existed between the members of the High School team and the present coach of Stone Mountain, Mr. Riaver. for action In seemingly throning the High School out of the league last spring for playing a dis qualified-man. The writer was more responsible than any one elee In hav ing the president of the league act, being then connected with Georgia Military Academy as coach. If iiersonal grudges are going to he harbored In the controlling forces of our schools, for which the student body Ik made to suffer, then wr believe ath letics are harmful, and should he done away with. Then the matter resolves Itself to this: tl) Either a had case of cold feet: (2) or an unfair discrimination against Stone Mountain. The Univer sity School for Hoys stands ready to play any of the Atlanta teams. In At lanta or Stone Mountain under uny reasonable conditions whatsoever. As an exponent of pure, amateur ath letics In secondary schools, for the pur pose of the greatest good to the great est number, the * writer believes that the schools In and about Atlanta’have gone on a wrong road In, ilalng- dis criminating tactics. The general aim of athletics Is-practically, the same In every one of these schools, though too often the means used. have destroyed the purpose anil heaped ruin on the one using such meuns. Injustice to the people Interested.In such schools, ami to stone Mountain School In particular, the writer' feels that the actions of the Atlanta schools towards Stone Mountain should be ex plained. As a member of the northern division of the G. I. A. A., they have a right to request games of the other schools. The best teams have always met on the gridiron, hut so fur a game I :ih not been played between ihe Uni- j Farmer Killed by Train, erslty School for Boys and any of I Kim-lat tn/riic Ucorglnn. the schools.

In the opinion of the great erowd that witnessed the gnrne, It was the l»e*t Hist 1ms been played on Dudley field In yeara, and lu all probability wna the tnnat spectacular ever played on the famous field. There was something of the sensational order every moment. The new rules were employed on many occasions by Isith teams, and the forward pass nml the short kick cere seen throughout the .entire game. Texas was unable to run Vanderbilt's nds. and could not make any - headway through the line. Their attack was terrific, nnd on one occasion it looked a* though the visitors would surely ■core. Bob Blake made n forward i»os*. ami' several men lived for the ball, lu the mix up. Krnhl, the Texas full back, got the bull. He sped toward the gi>al Hue ns hard ns he could, and. with a good start, it looked ns though he would not Ih» headed.
