ances. The forward pass is certain to be employed more or less by both elev- ems. with on side kicks to make the play still more open.
 Crackers Here This Morning.
 The Georgia team will arrive here this morning at 10 o'clock, and will be quartered at the New Exchange Ho- tel. There will be twenty men exclus- squad. The team spent last night in Atlanta, and went to bed in a special sleeper, on which they will make the trip to Montgomery ln order that ev- cry man may have good nights rest.
 The field on which this afternoon's game will be played Is as fast as light ming, but 1t Is also as hard as cement, and if much mass play is resorted to both teams will be more or less bruised when time Is called at the end of the last half.
 The field is of clay. and has recent fy been narrowed and rolled. During yesterday l.. F. Woodruff, who has been arranging matters at this end for the Alabama boys. had the field raked, and all of the Jumps leveled down. This morning the five yard lines will be put down.
 It is expected that crowd of at least 5000 people wfIl witness the con- test. and there is almost as much in- terest as there is in the annual strug gle between Auburn and Alabama Georgia's most important game each year is with Auburn and this adds in- terest to the contest between Georgia and Alabama.

 EXTRA HEAT Two Events Are Landed
 Without Trouble. MoBnE GLIDING TAKES PACE Leslie Waterman Has No Real
 Opposition in Any Heat Rebel Baron, HuntsviIIe Colt, Lands The Three-Year-oid Trot From
 Hardware Without Any Dimcuity,

Yesterdays races came near to being another case of one first and the others nowhere. Just as on Thursday, the two events were landed in straight heats.
 While the fields were more evenly balanced than on Thursday. still the chasing was not smooth. the final re- suit being apparent even before the nrst heat in the two races was fin- ished,
 Rebel Baron. a handsome bay colt belonging to ". F. Garth. of Hunts vile, took the three-year-old trot ra- belonging to Mir. McCurdy There were originally six starters in this colt race, but scratches knocked out Ala Baba, a bay colt by the Bondsman. owned in Rome. Ga. and handled by George c.

 In the first heat of this race. Hard ware went up on the first turn and Baron Wilkes kept in front all the way of a rather slow mile, The quarter in .37; half in 1:12. and mile in 2.23 1-2.
 The second heat was little faster, the Garth colt showing the way all through again. The quarter in .36; half in 1:10, and-mile in 2:20 fiat

THE LINE UP.

Georgia and Alabama will match brawn against brawn, courage against courage. skill against skill today on tween representative teams of these two honorable institutions of learning will be played at the Alabama State [ Fair grounds. Surrounded by cheering thousands, the red and black and the red and white will fight for the glory of their coiors and the traditions of their colleges.
 Never before have these two teams come together with so little known of the relative merits of the two. As be- comes the valiant warrior. every man on each eleven Is confident. Georgia has sent no exultant def to the Ala bamians, and the wearers of the red and white have made no claim of great superiority, but there turks within the breast of every supporter of the Ala bamians that spirit which is always necessary to a complete victory. and no doubt the same is true of the Georgians.
 The game will be called at 2:30 o'clock in order that the full twenty five minute halves may be completed with good daylight attending. As the weather promises to be warm. the time taken out win undoubtedly be as much as forty or fifty minutes, which will lengthen the contest to nearly two hours.
 The officials will not be definitely de- cided on until this morning. at which time the captains of the two elevens will meet and reach an agreement.
 It was the intention of the Alabama management to come to Montgomery last night, but at the last moment this decision was changed, and Coach Pol lard will arrive with his men on the

 Score Was 75 To 0.

Columbus, Miss, Oct. 25--( Especial. )- In the presence of over 5000 people, coming from all sections of Mississippi and many parts of Alabama. the Agri- cultural and Mechanical College foot ball team completely smothered the. strong eleven from Mercer College this afternoon. The final score was 75 to 0.
 Before the Fame. the Georgians were strongest supporters of Mississippi. but in less than q minute. when Mississippi marched through Georgia ana scored the first touchdown with ease. 1t was plain that the foreigners were playing against a terrible foe.
 The Georgians were about eight pounds lighter to the man than their sissipians was not once dreamed of by even the most sanguine of their friends, to be so great as 1t was. The form they showed was rsraarkahla
 The game started by A. and M. Kick ing to Mercer who was held downs. In forty seconds Mississippi carried the ball safely for a touchdown.
 This rapid work seemed to demoral- ize the Georgians and they played without much spirit. Tney seemed 70 long enough to even catch the ball Tn fine enemies territory once strong rally by Mississippi quickly carried 1t the other way and the Georgiaps were lost again .. 1,A.. more points were scored in the second half. of his team mates. He had seven 1 touchdowns to his credit. McInnis, Me- George, Nelson, and Fent were others who earned applause.
 For the Georgians, Pool was probably the star while Hicks and Landrum also did some very good work.
 The lineup was as follows: A. and M.-Dee. left end; McInnts, left tackle; Dorrah. left guard; Woot- en, center; Bruffeld, right guard; Pol lard, right tackle; Watson, right end; McGeorge (Captain), quarterback; Dent Rose, left end; Furnon, right halfback Nelson Morris, fullback. | Mercer-Spurtine, left end; Davis left tackle; Scoggins -Duhnaway, left guard; Shaw (Captain) center; Under wood, right guard; Pool. right tackle Hicks Melton, right end; Mallory, quar- terj.ack; Landrum. left end; Former Suddutth, right halfback; Newman, full. back.
