Coach of the Tech Football Team


IN Saturday Sewanee decided
to go after a century score,
just TO see what one would
look like. No doubt they did
lot of running. but as little or moth
ing is known of the caliber of Flor
ence college, guess as to the
merits of the Tigers performance
isn't worth the readers time
The Commodores rolled up an
other healthy score, and against
Rose Polytechnic the so points they
made mean more than did their
hundred odd against the other two
teams previously played. While l
look for them to defeat Georgia
handily next Saturday, | am en-
tirely sure that it will not be an
other track meet for the Tennes
seeans. The Red and Black will
have power and will go some
through the line, but that Wander
bilt backfield will get around Geor-
gia's ends, ! imagine. Both teams
are liable to do considerable for
ward passing.
Auburn Strikes Snag.
Auburn struck something of a
snag in Florida, but this was no
surprise to me, for Florida played
excellent ball last fall and has re-
turned almost the entire team this
year | am advised by more than
one correspondent from the Land
of Flowers that the football team
down there is planning to make
their native heath a Land of
Thorns for all invaders and that
they are we'll capable of doing it.
Ny information is that they claim
a weight of over 40, and with the
speed and ability of Dummy"
Taylor at half and Captain Buie at
quarter, l have no doubt that visit
ing teams there this fall will find
something else besides the weather
a warm proposition" | am ad-
Vised that they hope to catch Tech
mapping on October 26. That they
can not do, as we are well ION to"
lutiil' anu II llltS DSdt ItCil II " III
be because they have the better
team and the Tech team will not
be able to help itself.
The score turned in by Georgia
against Citadel was entirely cred
table, for the latter plays a good.
snappy, nervy game. BY the ac-
counts it would appear that Cit
adel surprised the Athenians as
much by their splendid forward
pass game as they did the Yellow
Jackets. It is certainly a sight
worth witnessing to see the way
Martin and Folger, of 'the Citadel
team, get those long, speedy passes
off,
1t is clear that Mercer has re-

had three points garnered, while
Tech had none. And then came
out that come back" stuff that
Citadel saw week ago, and after
that it was merely a question Of
how long the quarters were as to
what the size Of Techs score would
be.
| have told the public before that
they couldn't look for much of
football team, but they could ex-
pect to see some mighty courage
Gus fighting spirit this fall from
the Yellow Jackets.
What about their football plav-
ing? Well, l nearly believe thew
played bteter than they know how
to play. They put forth almost
superhuman efforts and that. con-
pied with a peculiar style or svs-
TEN Of play that we have adopted
TINS year. proved considerable
some demoralizing to Alabama.
Team Is Lightest Ever.
WITH Moore. 140-pound fresh
man, in the game in place of a con-
slderably heavier man, the average
weight of the Tech team is brought
down to 1874. When it is recalled
that the next lightest team we have
ever had at Tech has been about
l62 Gin 1900, the reader is in
position to understand just what
kind of hole Tech is in this fall
for material; or, if the reader
doesn't. any athlete does. And. by
the way, the sporting editors Of
Atlanta are cordially invited to
come out and weigh the team for
themselves any time they feel so
inclined.
| have dwelt for a moment on
this point merely because | want
Tech men and Atlantans to appre-
clate that fighting Tech eleven, and
to give them credit for what they
did last Saturday. | freely say that
1t was, in my opinion, the greatest
victory, considering the linita-
tions, that Tech ever won, and
am proud of the team accordingly.
Whether these featherweights
can stand the gait and keep up this
pace is something that remains to
be seen. To keep them "on edge"
for a whole season of games in
which they will always be greatly
outweighted is a task | fear be-
yond our powers, perhaps beyond
any powers.
But as long az they can play
such football as they did last Sat
urday, whether they win or lese,
they will be putting up an article
that will be well worth any mans
time to inspect of Saturday aft
ernOon.

Personally. / had looked for a de-
feat to the unmeIodious tune of
about four touchdowns at the
hands of the Tuscaloosans, but the
fire and spirit with which the Jack

weren't going to beat us that much,
anyway.

S.P u. TURNS UP WITH
FINE BUNCH OF RINGERS

NASHVILLE, TENN, Oct. 1.-THE
truth is out now as to why Sewanee
cancelled a game with the S. P. L. team
of Jackson, and took on the weaker
Florence Normal instead.
1t seems that the S. P. L. bunch has
grabbed four of the football players
recently expelled from the University
of Mississippi on charges of profess
sionalism. s. p. L. wired Sewanee its
lineup, including the names of Ca
hall, Manship, Shields and Walton, all
of whom were put off the University
of Mississippi team short time ago.
Coach Cope. of Sewanee. demanded
the removal of these men from today's
game, as the s. l. A. A. rules establish
ed them as ineligible under the one
year limit. s. P. L. refused to play
with the substitutes, and the game was
called off

Owing to the fact that last year
automobiles tore up the Poncey

from the side lines, it has been de-
cided by the owners of the park
that no vehicles of any kind will

Sox 0verwhe ed
In Yesterdays Game;
Even Stahl Lost Head
Boston Mogul Made Tremendous
Mistake in Putting Collins Into
Game That Was Lost.
By John (Chief) Movers.

DosToN, Oct. 15.-Yesterday's
ID was the first decisive victory of
the series. There was no
question about the best team of the
day winning.
our win was so clean-cut that it as
tonlshed many of our supporters. No
wonder, either, for it was the first time
we played up to our real form. That
victory did worlds to esta blish conf
dence and fight in our ranks
Yesterdays victory proved a double
disaster to the Red Sox.
That first inning, when O'Brien went
all to pieces, the entire team blew IN
behind him. Every man on the club
lost his head. We had them all so far
up in the air that we'd have beaten anv
kind of pitching
1t was the first occasion of "rattIes"
that the Hub outfit showed
StahI pulls Bone"
Jake Stahl did a foolish thing yes
terday when he sent Collins in to re-
lieve O'Brien.
| can not explain such a move. un-
less Jake was as befuddled then as he
and his men were in the previous in
nings.
Here the game was hopelessly lost
Boston had one chance in a million for
Vlctory-but still he wasted good
pitcher in the last eight innings.
Collins showed by the manner in
which he finished that he would have
been a mighty valuable asset to have
in reserve in case Wood should have TO
hang out the distress signal.
l never in all my life saw a team Of
such reputed strength so thoroughly
disorganized as was Boston in the first
inning of yesterdays game.
We did not realize that we had them
on the run till O'Brien pulled that
balk
Twill say for him that it was the
best balk | ever saw. 1t took the back
bone not only out of the pitcher but
out of every man supporting him.
McGraw grasped the situation in a
flash.
He tipped us Immediately to use our
own judgment and to strike while the
iron was hot
The result was five runs in no time.
After that the "Rube" could go along
as he pleased
Was Cinch For the RUDE.
Vanguard had one, OF tie easiest
games of the series. | knew he would
win just about as he pleased after that
first inning.
RUDE was IS cool as an iceberg all
the way. Boston hit him trife harder
than he is usually hit during the first
four innings. But that simply made it
a baseball game after fashion instead
of massacre. 1t gave our supporters
a chance to see that the Giants are a
team Of class
That catch of Snodgrass in the fourth
inning was as pretty a bit of fielding
as any one can ever hope to see 1t
took sure triple off Wagner and kept
the score from assuming an exciting
tone. Yet I am glad that the play came
off as it did 1t was the straw that
broke the camels back. 1t took all the
fight out of the Sox That catch licked
them.

small danger of overcrowding.
However. it is not unlikely that
one of Atlanta's largest football

without strong representation.
Moreover, the game is Of such pri-
