When the season started a subscrip-
ton list was placed in the hands of
committee and those subscribing gave
half the amounts opposite their names
toward erecting a fence and grandstand
and obtaining players. At the close of
the season only half the amount had
been collected. as gate receipts had paid
off all indebtedness, with a large bal

THO most Southerners the game
of prime importance tomor-
row throughout the length
and breadth of the land is the one
booked to take place in Cambridge
between the Gommodores and John
ny Harvard.
After "pinning it on" Brown and
Princeton the way Harvard has he
would be deemed a rash man who
would match his pennies that the
Crimson couldn't do liksewise to
Vanderbilt, and | am not that ash
man.
For all THAI, it is my conviction
that Vanderbilt will put up a game
of which we will all be very proud.
The Commodores have gained some
confidence in themselves through
their splendid victories thus far,
and they seem in fair physical
condition to put ul close to their
best game. Harvard will not so
greatly outweigh them, as it is
comparatively light team at Cam
bridge this year. and when 1t comes
to speed ] doubt if they will be one
whit flasher than the Tennessee
ans.
There is still one factor in favor
Of Vanderbilt. Harvard will not,
can not. be nearly so we'll keyed
for the contest as will Vanderbilt.
They spent themselves to very
considerable degree against Brown
and Princeton, and they know they
have yet to hold themselves for SUI
preme efforts against both Dart
mouth and Yale. For Vanderbilt.
on the other hand. the game tomOr-
row will be the GROWING point Of
the entire season, and l look to see
them put up quite their best game
Yes, Harvard should win by a
touchdown or two, but not more
than that, for have no notion that
Harvard will try to run up a score,
even if they could. If they find the
game going safely they are going
to play safe, put in subs and spare
the regulars. ! doubt even whethe"
Brickley will be put In the game at
all, unless he just must be used to
pull it out of the fire.
But no matter who Harvard lines
up, it is my opinion they will have
as busy time Of it as Woodrow
Wilson is having in the hand -shak-
ing line-only in a different way,
I believe Vanderbilt will work more
successful forward passes than did
Princeton. and also that they will
make more ground around Har-
wards ends than did Princeton,
which is venturing much when you
remember how fast is Princeton's
backfeld
l incline likewise to think that
Vanderbilt will stop Harvard's
bucking game about as we'll as did
the Tigers. And if by keeping
Brickley out Harvard also keeps
itself out of some goals from
the field, who knows how closely
they may not be pushed for the de-
cision when the final gong rings?
Sewanee VS.. Tech.
This should be a splendid exhibit
ton of the new game for Sc
vance will probably use more open
play than did Auburn, and Tech
as every one knows. can't hope to
do much with any other kind of
play.
The Tigers are almost, if not
quite, as heavy as was Auburn.
and, coupled with II. they have a
whole lot of speed. Therefore, it Is
difficult to see how Tech can hope
10 do better than they did against
the Alabamians last Saturday. Not
only has Sewanee a majority of old
players back, but in the new men
they have secured players who
shine with the very best on the
team.
The game should prove important

score, against Stetson, and it has
about as much weight as have the
Volunteers. If Mercer men will
keep their heads and not suffer
from stage fright. they should keep
Tennessee from feeling too lone
some during the afternoon.
Yet 1t must be conceded that on
the seasons record to date Tonnes
see has been playing the better ball
and should win the game. They will
be slightly handicapped by the fact
that the game takes place on the
Baptists' stamping ground, but with
the spirit they are putting into their
play this will probably not count
for much.
Mercer should not be beaten by
more than a touchdown or two, but
if they go up in the air there is no
telling how high the score will go
up after them.
A Few Comments.
IT'D you notice what a black eye
~ Florida gave Charleston college?
| guess Tech did we'll to get away
with those wildcats down there
Too bad no S. l. A. A. teams play
any Of the Texas colleges this year.
We don't know or hear a thing
about them this fall.
And Clemson fell down to South
Carolina while SeWanee couldn't
quite put 1t over on Georgia. What
are the answers? No matter. BY
Thanksgiving night We'll all know
all about it.
Most all the teams are dabbling
in forward pass stock this year, and
most of them show much improve
raent. Princeton's forward passes
in the Harvard game, though, in
the second half, in their own terri
tory and against the wind, proved
their undoing. What could it be
under those conditions but a really,
truly boomerang?

TO a degree. and as both teams are
3 top-notchers in the use of the for
ward pass we may expect some
very pretty plays showing up in
this department.
Yes, Sewanee should win, but
this ought to be the prettiest game
of the season, from the standpoint
of the spectator.
Auburn VS.. l.. S. I.
g ONE people think Auburn will
~ win this game with ease. AS
Auburn's offense is steadily inn
proving and has not struck a sin
gle slump this year, they are, per-
haps, justified in this expectation.
An analysis, however. of the game
l.. S. U. put up against Miss. A. and
NJ. shows that l.. S. L. slightly out
played the A. and NJ, even though
they lost the game. And it will be
remembered that Auburn only won
from A. and NJ by a touchdown
after an 80-yard run, which might
not happen again were the two
teams to play a dozen more games
this season.
If L. S. L. plays their best game,
they should make it mighty dis
agreeable for Auburn. Still, l look
to see the A. F. l. win, by not more
imam one OF TWO IOucUuONuS.
In passing. let me say that Au-
burn has about as much drive to
their play as any team | have seen
in many, many moons. This does
well always against a light team
like Tech. but it alone viii be of
little avail against Vanderbilt, for
the Commodores are even heavier
than the Auburnites, and they will
stop the latter's heavy plunges. In
addition, Auburn's tackling is rag
ged and high and will have to be
greatly improved if they are to
stand any show against the polish
ed young gentlemen from Nashville.
Alabama VS.. Mississippi.
THIS will be another red-hot
game. with the odds slightly ia
voring Mississippi. Alabama is on
its feet and playing fine ball, but
the boys from "Ole MISSISSIPPI will
be, I fear, little too heavy for
them. 1t will be recalled what a
tarter Vanderbilt struck in them,
and, in spite of the loss of the quar-
tet of stars who were ruled out this
year. they still have plenty of other
good men to fill the shoes of the
departed. Barker, the left tackle,
is an especially able man, and it is
safe to say that nothing will be
gained by the Tuscaloosans over
his side of the line.
BY the way, since H. Vandegraaf
was put at half back for Alabama,
he is doing even better work than
he did at end.
Tennessee VS.. Mercer.
