TIE GAME PLAYED
At COLUMBUS, MISS.
M. A. c. AND LOUISIANA STATE
so EVENLY MATCHED THAT
NEITHER CAN ScoRE-A LARGE
CROWD SEES CONTEST.

Columbus, Miss. October 26-(Special)-
About 1900 people witnessed this after
noon, a fierce battle between the foot
ball teams of the Mississippi Agricultural
college and the University of Louisiana,
in which neither scored. The teams were
evenly matched, the weight averaging
about 165 pounds. The game was one
of the best ever witnessed in this city
and was an even fight throughout. The
boys showed excellent training and at no
stage of the game was the decision for
eitherside. apparently. When time was
called in the last half, neither team had
scored. Montgomery of Mississippi made
many beautiful tackles during the game,
and the defense work of Wooten of Mis-
sssippi was very praiseworthy.
The game began at $3.50 p. M, by Nc
George of Mississippi kicking to Louis
lana. At the end of the first half neither
side had the best of the game and no
score resulted and when the second half
began, the boys were ready and eager
for the fray, and so excited an enthused
was the crowd that had gathered to wit
ness this pretty struggle, that it was with
a great effort they were kept from the
field. The Mississippi boys from the first,
realized that they did not have an easy
proposition TO ldcklS, Ill the ISoulSidhei
boys, and the Louisiana boys felt as If
the Mississippians were there with the
goods. There was not dull moment in
the game and, from start to finish, it was
entirely free from smuggling, illegal use OF
hands, and other Objectionable features
of tough football The players all left
the field in good condition and expressed
themselves as being pleased at the eX-
cellent condition of the grounds.
The second half began by Louisiana
kicking to Mississippi and, from that on,
the struggle was great. The new ten
yard rule" was freely discussed by both
teams and they expressed themselves as
not favoring it, for with teams evenly
matched it is next II impossible to score.
Both colleges have better teams this
year than in previous years.
The Mississippians executed their runs
nicely and the spiral punt, of the Louis
lana team was excellent. The work OF
Louisiana's quarterback was spectacular.
The lineup was follows
Observation-Disclosures, center: Texada,
right guard; Klock, right tackle; Kelly,
right end; Stovall, left guard; Candy,
left tackle; Williams, left end; Harvey,
right half, Smith, left half; We'll cap
tain, fullback: Brannon, quarterback.
ssissippi-Wooten, center; Broomtield,
right guard McInnis, right tackle; Gill
lespie, right end; Hull, left guard; Tate,
left tackle; Dee, left end; Montgomery.

fullback; McGeorge (captain, quarter

Wilkerson fails to catch the ball and
Sewanee gets it. After two futile efforts
against the line. Shipp manages to break
through the interference, and dashes Tor
the goal. Easily he outsrips all pursuers.
He lands the ball between the posts. The
referee rules that holding occurred in the
line, and the score is not allowed. Sc
vance is penalzed. Again the ball is
forced towards Auburn's goal, and soon
rests on the ten-yard line. Here Auburn
braces up and holds the Purple crew for
DOWNS The ball is kicked out of danger.
Sewanee cannot penetrate the Auburn line
and the ball is the Alcbamians. Ware is
handed the pigskin on a forward pass and
advanced ten yards. The same play is at
tempted on the other side and results in
a failure. With courage renewed, Sewanee
carries the ball down the field with terrific
gains. The purple supporters call for a
touchdown while the ball is in the middle
of the field. Shipp flies around the end
for twenty and ten yards. The Sewanee
supporters are enthusiastic. Then tumble
occurs, and Auburn does the merry mak-
ing.
Ware. on the forward pass, gains TWEEN
ty yards, and Sewanee is repeatedly pen
allied for ten yards. Lacey and Whitner
find the Sewanee line easy, and go through
on terrific bucks Soon the ball is resting
on Sewanee's ten-yard line The pigslSin
is Auburn's with first down. Lacey hurls
| himself against the Purple men. He falls
back without gain. Whitner is next en-
poyed and his rush is met half way
and mangled. An attempt to circle right
end is also a failure, and Sewanee. after
making magnificent stand, Is rewarded
with tine ball 1t is kicked out OF danger.
Auburn again makes use of the forward
pass. Ware gains twenty yards. HuShes
gets ten more. Twice again Is SeWahee
penalized and again is the eastern goai

asserts itself. the line Is repeatedly as

me was not a brilliant exhibition
...o sport. There was a woeful lack
of the snap and ginger that have formerly
characterized Sewanee, and lack of the
determined spirit and proverbal pluck
on the part of Auburn.
The game was slow and at times ragged.
In spite of that fact, the enthusiasm of
the support of the respective teams was
warm throughout. The grounds were well
filled with spectators, and the witnesses
of the annual struggle We're determined
TO make their presence known. There was
no dearth of ginger in the college yells.
There was no ragged work in the triumph
ant waving of gay pennants and banners.
Auburn Scores First.
AS was expected Auburn was the pop
ular fayorite. With the bettors, Sewanee
was favored with odds ranging from three
to two to three to one. In some instances,
odds were offered and accepted that Au-
burn would not score.
The halves were twenty minutes long.
Edward Tutwiler. University of Virginia,
was referee, and Bradley Walker Uni
versty of Virginia, was umpire. Coach
Pollard. Yale, of the University of Ala
bama, was head linesman.
The game started briskly enough. Sc
vance, after choosing the eastern goal,
kicked off. Auburn, after failing to move
in two downs, kicked to Sewanee. The
Purple men then were forced to kick in
turn, but managed to get the ball A
series of line bucks and end runs, in
which Ship figured materially, landed
the pig skin on Auburns five yard line.
Here Auburn braced up, and took the
ball on downs, kicking 1t out of danger.
Terrific punges through Sewanee's line.
and the successful use of the forward
pass, threatened Sewanee's goal, but from
the five yard line. the Alabamians could
not move in three downs. Sewanee then
punted the skin out of danger. Auburn
again made splendid gains by means of
the forward pass, and profited from
numerous penalties imposed on Sewanee.
When again the goal was neared Au-
burns pluck asserted itself, and while
the opposition on the part of the wearers
of the Purple was truly magnificent,
nothing could stop the final plunge of
Fullback Lacey. Auburn thus scored the
first touchdown.
The Game Won.
In the first half, Just as there remained
but one more moment in which to play,
there was fatal miseue in the execu-
ton of the forward pass. Instead of the
ball falling in the hands of Hughes 1t
was caught by Halfback Ship of Sc

German press and trade organs
contained declarations inimical to per-
mitting foreigners to participate in the
studies at German institutions of learn
ing. technical schools. and to be en-
ployed in or visit factories, etc.
The last annual report of the new
Commercial Academy of Leipzig says
that of the 72O students attending its
courses ss2 were natives and subjects
of foreign countries. The Cologne Ga
zette considered a semi-oficial organ
of the German Government, comments
upon this statistical statement as fol-
lows:
The proportion of foreign to German
scholars gives occasion for serious re-
f1ection The consolation frequently
expressed that by these foreigners edu-

tions with foreign countries will be i'm
proved is very meager and cannot be
maintained in the least. because 1t will
be the natural endeavor of these for
eigners to use the knowledge obtained
here against German competition
abroad. This is the case also in regard
to our technical schools. Many of our
export firms, manufacturing machines
and other lines of goods, complain Of
the competition which is thus educated
and raised, to their loss, at our high
schools. Though we have little desire
to hinder the spread of the results Of
scientific research, theoretical or prac-
tical, even toward foreign countries,
still we do not deem it consistent with
the principal of national education and
national attainments to admit foreign
ers more than is strictly necessary for
our national institutions of learning.
The inundation of the Commercial
Academy at Leipzig by foreigners ex-
hibits in this respect very unsatisfac-
