TEAM FOR SATURDAYS GAME
WILL BE SELECTED TONIGHT
Believed That Savannah Will Win the Game on
Individual Play

No team In the South ever offered
better or more abundant material foE
a football eleven, which, with proper
training. could more successfully hold
its own with any Of the big college
teams. Il is as it stands today, per-
hans the heaviest team in the South,
averaging about 10 to liz pounds
The ability OF the Florida team
should not be underrated, however.
Savannah has grown so accustomed 70
victory In football that it would be
little short Of calamity 10 suffer de-
feat right at the beginning Of the sea-
son.
Floridas back feld is light. but said
to be very fast The line is made up
Of heavy. experienced men. and il viii
be a battle royal when the TWO teams
face out at Bolton street park to-mor-
row.
The arrangements for accommodate
ing the ladies' this year and giving
them comfort able seats viii be great
" appreciated by the fair ones who
enjoy the game, but not enough to
stand on the cold. wet ground through
the entire period Of play. The grand
stand. boxes and bieachers In the ball
park afford an excellent view OF the
checkerboard. and seats will be pro-
vided for all who want them.
Nearly every man who is trying for
a place on the team was out for prac-
tice last night. and the men were put
through much hard work. The last
three practices have been beneficial
and even the seasoned collegians viii
find thai they have foenen worthy Of
their steel.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1904-10-28

Not until tonight viii the final Sc
lection for the team. which will repre-
sent Savannah in to-morrows contest
against the Florida State College, be
made
AS stated in the Morning News yes
tenday. the Savannah team will go into
the same with a team greatly handi-
capped by lack OF team training. while
the collegians have been playing daily
now for about two months.
Physically. the team may be in bet
ter shape than it was when Georgia
played here last year, but in team play,
it cannot be compared. Individually
the team is stronger. No one denies
that. but many OF those who played
on the Blue and White side last year
had played together the season before,
and the other members of the team
were fresh from college. and grasped
new play IN one or two trias.
Savannah viii defeat Florida. But
Savannah will win on individual play.
The effort to make it appear that the
team had been tnjustly criticised IS
ridiculous in the eyes of those who
want TO know really what the team IL
doing. The team did show up green al
practice. and the opinion advanced was
thoroughly unbiased, and made with a
view to doing good rather than to-
wards doing harm.

SEWANEE DEFEATED CLEMSON
IN A SPECTACULAR GAME
Two Tigers CIawed Each other in Desperate En-.
counter at Columbia

Columbia. s. c. oct. 27.-The Glenn
son Tigers went down before the Sc
vance Tigers to-day by a score Of Il
to 5. The game was witnessed by s.
600 people.
The first half was spectacular. The
men lined up with Clemson Weighing
100 pounds and Sewanee 155. Kicking
10 save the ball from going over was
common, and a long S0-yard kick by
Sawrie of Sewanee. was one of the
greatest Of the game.
The real feature of the game was
the wonderful 40-yard run of Fowlkins
Of Sewanee. after going through the
Clemson line and snatching the ball on
Clemson's tumble.
With but eight minutes to play Glenn
son pushed back Sewanee to the goal
and finally Furtick hurdled over.

At this point the witness said his
uncle, Ernest Crawford, had tried TO
get John Perry, a servant, to make a
certain statement, and said Perry mad

a wrong statement and was going to
tell the truth. He added that his I'M
Gle had tried to get a statement from
him, but that he never did and never
would. He declared that he told his
uncle that he was going to tell the
truth, and that he was doing so on the
stand.
Replying to the cross examination
of Capt. Woods who continued to
confront him with statements and ask
him if he had not made them, the

stated that if he told the truth his
