MANDY IS PREPARING FOR
 FIRST s. I. A. A. STRUGGLE

Saturday were the fine showings made by tlillholand, who played end the latter half of the game, and the work of Shea and Buck in the backfield. Miliholland was working in his first football game of the kind and he showed stuff In every de- pertinent of play Formerly Rugsby player in some California prep. plant hs has shown d marked adaptabilty to the more strenuous variety of the gfidhon game and he is looked upon by the coaches as d real find capable of much development. Shea. the Memphis fresh- man, made many good runs and an ex- cellent first impression. Luck, another freshman, tried out at half, proved aston7 ishng fast and wormed his way through many a broken field for long gains until retired with broken thumb. Shipp, tho big tackle, played good game, but is not In fighting form as yet. He prom ises to be there with the goods in large packages, however with a couple more weeks of training. %
 The opening play in the Rose game on the part of the visitors uncorked some- thing never seen in these parts before. Following the kickoff and on q quick lineup. the Rose quarter passed the ball to man in citizens clothes concealed on the sidelnes The play netted only the distance of the pass less than 10 wards, however, as the well dressed stranseF- was 1olted with a hard tackle that hurled him over the sidellnes before he could take a step. Removing his outer raiment which included a ratish little hat, in full view of the asse cabbage, the Rose citizen fell into line in uniform and pro- ceeded 10 business. Va derbilts first play was more astonishing still but the joke and. incidental surprise was fur nished by the local squad. On the second down, Rose tried a forward pass which Captain Hardage eaped up and grabtrs out of the atmosphere and logged 10 yards to a touchdown.
 There will be md-week scrimmags preparatory 10 the Georgia game, but not more than one. according To the usual MeGugn programme.

Even before today's game, fans who gathered to hear the bulletin reports said freely that they didn't care much whether Boston wins today or not" and that they would be better pleased to have the series decided in Boston, and 10 see Joe Wood pitching before home crowd foi the first time in the series, get the honor of twirling the final game.

BASEBALL MATINEE
 IN CHAMBER OF
 COMMERCE TODAY

Despite the prediction of Commodore Orcutt that today would mark the last of the baseball matinees, the Red Sox were defeated by the Giants and the big series, together with the local mati- nees, are to be prolonged
 owing. to their inability to obtain the Jefferson theatre for the matinee of the game tomorrow, those in charge have made arrangements whereby the re- maining games will be called in the Chamber of Commerce auditorium. This building is well suited for the pur- pose, and every arrangement has been made to accommodate the public with every detail of the games just as they are played.
 Commodore Orcutt will be in charge and this alone .insures the local base ball enthusiasts ample sport for their money,

Nashville, Tenn, October 1i.-Speclal)- Starting the week in preparation for the first hard game of the season. that with Georgia at Atlanta next Saturday, Coach McGugin of Vanderbilt finds two of his regulars aling aside from Joe Covington, still under the weather with a sprained ankle. Neither SilSes nor Curlin was able to appear in Saturdays lineup against Rose Poly the former out with a touch of chils and the latter suffering from an aggravation made more or less famous by Job. These two, however. are expect ed to be in the harness again in time to meet the strong Cracker crew.
 Saturdays contest with Rose was pro- phetic of a situation that appears to warrant a very strong list of secondary material Removing his regulars early in the game Coach McGugin sent in sub. after sub-twenty-two men in all taking part in the battle-and during practically the entire second half not a regular was to be found in the lineup. Robbins and Chester were the only men to play through the game and both of these were doing understudy work for Curln and Sikes respectively. Practically nothing but straight football was played
 The campaign as waged by Coach Me- Gugln was inspired by something more than merely a desire to look over sub. possibilities. Head Coach Elliott and As sistant Coach Tutweiler of Virginia came all the way from Charlottesville to view the contest and although they left with coplous notes 1t Is altogether likely that they could write a much heftier volume of travel impressions than work on football as played by the outfit that will stack up against the cohorts of the old Dominion when they journey here for the game November 2.

time since the series began that he has failed in a pinch to come through wita d miraculous play.
 With his five run lead Rube Marqnard was effective in every round but the sec ond. He alternated his curve and fast bali. occasionally using a slow drop with good results
 The only noteworthy fielding feature was a brilliant catch by Snodgrass of a near home run from Wagner's bat tn the fourth. Stahl was on first at the time with no one out. Had Snow missed Heinies wallop the Red Sox might be champions of the world right now. It was furious drive nearly to the center field fence.
 The oracle who whispered the name of OBrlen in Stahrs ear must be in the pay of the club owners, though 1t seemed like good judgment to put him in today In his other game he pitched as well as Wood has in either of his appearances.
 Smoky Joe" will face the greatly en- couraged Giants today, and essay the mighty task Of winning three world 5 championship games in row. If he sue ceeds he may be easily ranked with Mathewson. If he fails Bostons chances will be dark indeed.

 Such a man." he continued, Ifs apt to be of Turner's type.
 Turner was a shoe dealer, and across the way from him hourished a rival. The rival put up a billboard one day headed with the Latin motto, Mems conscia recti'--A mind conscious of recutude.
 Turner. ignorant alike of good Latin and good advertising, put up next to his rivals a bigger billboard on which was printed: #,sHwyl

Collins Takes the Slab
Snodgrass' Great Play

Manager Stahl in the fourth inning rolled a slow hit to Herzog and was safe at first. Then Wagner poled one of the longest drives of the day to cen- ter field Snodgrass was off with the crack of the bat, and running sideways caught the ball near the centerfield fence
 It was an important catch. for had the ball gotten away from him it probably would have resulted in a home run for Wagner with Stahl scoring ahead of

close by a quick double play Collins shot fast grounder to Fletcher. who tossed to Doyle, forcing Cady, and Col lins was thrown out at first. After this inning the Red Sox had only three men up in each inning with the exception Of the eighth.
 Herzog flied to Speaker. Meyers ripped a terrific drive to centerfield, which rolled all the way to the fence Meyers pulled up at third base but faster runner probably would have scored a home run. Manager McGraw was on third base coaching line and when Fletch- CT went out a long fly to center field, McGraw waved to Meyers to go home, but the chief hesitated and the oppor- tunity to score was lost for Speaker made a lightning return of the ball ball to the plate. Marquard grounded out, Yerkes to Stahl, leaving Meyers on third.
 The Red Sox were retired in the fifth on three fly balls. Hooper and Yerkes both flew out to Murray and Speaker sent up fly to Herzog.
 Devore opened New York's fifth with a Texas leaguer to center field. Doyle hit a high fly to Wagner. Snodgrass sent long line drive to Hooper and Devore, thinking Snodgrass had made a long hit. kept on running. He was close to third base when he found that he had been doubled up, Hooper to Stahl.
 The best Lewis could do for Boston was to foul to Meyers and Gardner and Stahf both struck out. The Nationals did not take long for their sixth inning. Murray sent a fly that Hooper captured after a run. Merke hit a pop fly to Stahl and Herzog popped to Yerkes
