TECH BATTLES TODAY
AGAINST AUBURN TEAM
Both Teams Confident of Winning and Dope
Appears to Give Each an Even Chance.
Little Betting on Outcome.
Tt’« Tech against Auburn on Terli
this afternoon—Helsinnii agaInst Donahire—
the yellow nnd white against the orange
and blue—Georgia ngnlnst Alabama.
And may the best team win—whirli It
probably will, though there ia no count-
Inc.
Heldotn have two team* faced each other
on Tech field which were inoro ronfldent
of winning, which were letter matched In
weight, knowledge nnd experience, and
seldom two whlrh ran lie counted on to
play their beat—whatever happen*.
Both teams arc ready to the very sec
ond for n gruelling butt hi.
strong, fast and likely to spring anything
in the way of n football surprise.
Donahue has a reputation of developing
pretty shifty football teams. laist year he
had n good one and this year he appa
rently hits another out of the same mold.
And the Auburn players nre proverbially
plucky The Alabama team urrlvod Inst
night, and ull of the men are reported to
he in good condition.

Improving steadily. Is now «t « higher state
of efficiency than It has been before tills
year. Faculty requirements. Injuries and
eligibility rules have shot to pieces the
none-too-hrllllant muterhil with 'which
roach Helsnian was provided when the
season opened. Hut for nil htnt, the shat
tered remnant has gone steadily forward-
plugging at the rudiments of the game, the
new rules, the fine points, slgunls—(earplug
everything nt once nnd apparently learn
ing all filings well.
And today come* one of the hardest tesla
of the rear. Besides being bitter rivals
at all times, Tech and Auburn are espe
cially anxious to win out this year. It
Is presumably a question of third honors
for one and fourth for the other. Any
wav, the team which loses c»n*s down n
peg—and Tech Is determined that the losers
shall not l*e the wearers of the yellow and
white.
The line ups of the I wo teams in the
game this afternoon will he ns follow:

No very heavy ladling Is lielng done ou
the outcome of the game, Imt most of the
wagers which have goiio up have beeu
even money.
Apparently the men who lw»t regularly
on all (he events could not dope tills game
out to suit them, nnd many.of them have
“stayed off." The hackers of the two col
leges. while confident of winning, nre not
Imlmod with licit especial brand of confi
dence which leads u college mnn fo plunge.
Apparently all who are Inclined to n small
gamble on the side realize that the gamo
Is ii very close matter, and few caro to
wager money on the outcome.
Between the liiilve* of the “big show*"
this afternoon, the Georgia Military acad
emy team will tackle the Tech Scrubs In
it game which promise* to furnish consid
erable excitement. Coach Patterson has
trained Ids school hoys well, and they
arc playing fast football.
t ouch Beene, however, has done equally
well with the wealth of scrub material
which h* has found nt Tech, and the

The above very Inoffensive looking
clipping from the real estate trans

halcyon Houthern League days at Ath

that In a year or two the Pelicans will

In a way this is news. Local fans
who read The Item all the summer
knew* that something waa happening In
that direction. This newspaper pre
dicted a new park in the near future.
The plot purchased by Mr. Helnemann
covers an entire square—a very .large
square—and by carefully uttllxlng the
space a modern baseball park can bo
built there.
It is not known whether Mr. Heine*
nmnn merely represented the club In
buying the property for the now park
or whether he bought the square on Ills
own hook. It may be that Mr. Heine*
nmnn will build the park himself and
will lease It to the club, but those who

By J. 8. A. MACDONALD.
New York, Nov. 3.—With tho inau
guration of the final meeting of the
Metropolitan season at Aqueduct today
the winter campaigner, be he owner,
Jockey -or common rank soldier of
fortune, bethought himself of the shift
to salhbrlouH Houthern climes.
This current meeting of the Queens
County Jockey Club here nt Aqueduct
continues to November 15. On the
very next day, the race track army In
vades Washington, IX 0„ where the an
nual autumn term of the Washington
Jockey Club at Henning, D. L\, en
sues for a run to December 1. Then
comes the long drop down to New Or
leans, La., or across the continent to
Los Angeles, Cal., or Han Francisco,
Cal. In fact, racing nt these points
commences some time before the close
down at Penning, the curtain going
up at New Orleans, the Haturdny be
fore Thanksgiving day, or November
24. The now California Jockey Club
commences Its 150 days' session on No
vember 17 at Oakland.
However, It Is of New Orleans the
majority of Eastern racing folk wot of
most. Every nutuinn the agents of the
respective racing associations In Louls-
laiia and the Californian wage a brisk
campaign among the owners, bookmak
ers, Jockeys, etc., with art Idea of di
verting their presence to their particu
lar courses. These advance agents
have made a warm fight of it this fall.
"Jimmy” Hcanlon. one of the best-liked
and progressive hustlers from the Pa
cific count, representing Torn Williams’
Oakland game, while John Poden, Hr.,
tho newly appointed secretary at Los
Angeles, Cal., has been looking after
the Ascot Park’s Interests. Not until
the last few days did either of the New
Orleans associations— the Crescent City
Jockey Club and the City Park Jockey
Club—have a booster on the grounds.
Martin Nuthanson Is now doing a lit
tle missionary work here at Aqueduct.
City Park Is unrepresented, and so fur
not a single stake book or announce
ment of any sort respecting the Corri
gan plant has come to hand.
Coast Tracks Busy.
Naturally the California tracks have
made Inroads on Now Orleans. Hun
dreds of horses nnd scores of turfmen,
billed for the Crescent City a month
ago, me now heading toward the
Golden Gate.
”8am’’ Hildreth and his big stable
have been lured away from the Louis
iana winter field to Han Francisco. It
took three weeks of talking In the pad
dock by day and about the Imperial
hotel corridors ut night on the part of
Hcanlau before ''Ham” finally broke
away from tne fair grounds, where he
has been racing anil spending $50,000
each winter for eight straight years, to
the far West. Hildreth has already
shipped to Oakland 31 head with Guid
ing Htar, winner of the last Crescent
City derby; Security, Rapid Water uml
old Van Ness, all New < irleans favor
ites, lu the Hildreth special palace
horse cars. Jockey Knapp will ride for
him. *
Ah soon u^'Hoots” Purnell's rein
statement was announced Williams and
Hcanlan nulled him for Oakland, too.
It Is supposed Durnell 1ms the tlnnnclul
support of John W. Gates. He will
take twelve useful horses West late
this week, with Arthur Redfern as his
Jockey, the latter agreeing to make 105
pounds for Durnell by December 15.
New Orleans Is In for one grand win
ter of racing and general, all-round
sport. Nutlmnson says every stall at
the fair grounds has been let, while
he expects about thirty bookmakers to
declare In on Thanksgiving Day.
Cook Goes West.
Talking of bookmakers reminds me
of Fred Cook’s Intention to race and
book at New Orleans' rival, Oakland.
Cook left here lust Heptember shortly
after a maiden colt of his happened to
bo left at the post after being played
from 4 to 1 to 7 to 10. Cook’s trainer,
"Bill” Phillips, Is now speeding to
Frisco with a collection of horses, joint
ly owned by Cook and J. AV. Dobson.
Cook Intends to make u $100,000 book
there. The interesting thing about
Cook’s defection Is In the suspicion of
the ow^ier-bookmaker having received
the ”23” number from the City Park
people where he raced last winter. Of
course Cook knows full well the peace
compart between the warring tracks
did not mean amnesty for him. The
fair grounds somehow hate Cook. Last
winter at City Park Cook and Jits
agents controlled Jockey “Dave" Nlcol
and maintained a strong stable and
a “Big Htore” hooking enterprise.
One very interesting thing Nathanson
Is communicating Just now Is the fact
that both City Park and the fair
grounds Intend playing a fair,
square game. There will be no pre
judice on either side. When the fields
urc crowded and horses have to be
thrown out I do not propose to say,
“Oh, well, you were with us In the re
cent fight, so your horse goes, and this
former City Park adherent’s horse must
be excluded."
"Every horseman will be treated on
exactly the same basis. There will be
go favorites at the Fair Grounds.”
No Lid in New Orleans.
Here Is another bit of good news for
the winter followers of tho bangtails.
New Orleans’ “lid” will be off for tho
first time In many seasons. By Thanks
giving day night, bright lights and a
merry company will be seen within at
least four of the old-time clubs, all nt
which means a bustling winter down in
Dixie Land.
As to the official staffs at City Park
and the Fair Grounds, It Is understood,
Francis Trevelyan will not bo seen ut
City Park, while Richard H. Burke, of
the Jockey Club, Is to fill an important
post at the Fair Grounds. Frank J.
Bryan, the well-known judge, now of
ficiating at Baltimore, Md., will be at
the Fair Grounds as usual. Late this
week Thomas II. O’Connor, racing edi
tor of The New York Globe, was ap*-
polnted assistant secretary to John Bo-
den ut Ascot Park.
Probably the stroftgest stable racing
at either of the New Orleans tracks
will be that of "Mose” Goldblatt.
“Mosek’ cmne East a month ago backed
by the strongest sort of financial sup
port. He picked up the good filly KII-
Uecrankle and a string of useful and
high-class young horses for the winter
campaign, and as no horse-handler in
tho country has “Mose” surpassed In
the matter of being able to point and
place race horses to advantage, the old
fox Is bound to cut the premier role in
the Fair Grounds doings the l.ext three
months. Bel mere, the winner of the
Brooklyn derby, will be about the best
class horse In the Houth tills winter.
Fred Berlew will train the colt, and
will take along Jockey Lee Sewell in
stead of “Frankie” O’Neil, as his stable
rider.
Probably 25,000 racegoers from all
parts of the country will winter down
at the Crescent City, attracted prima
rily through the racing.

Alabanin-Mlsslsslppl game will i.«

across the border indicate that Conch

In the past Alabama has usually

Improving, and should give a good u.
count of themselves this year, playing
as they do on home territory.
Besides, Pollard’s pets are still in a
very crippled condition. Franklin, tin-
heavy left guard, and one of the best
players on the team, Is nursing a bail
