Condition and Experience Will Count Lot Vandy Georgia
ATHENlANS HAVE CHANCE FOR SOUTHERN TITLE

CONSIDERING first the matter
of experience, the Vanderbilt
team this year is made up pretty
largely of old material. Some of
the names that are new to the or
binary football fans are names of
men who for two or three years
have been playing on scrub teams
or as substitutes on the varsity
Those who are absolutely new. at
Vanderbilt have all had slather
of prep school training.
McGugin has a team that is al
ready made
Now, take Georgia: Coach Cum
ningham this year had about the
largest amount of first class mate
rial, physically and of potential
playing possibility, that has ever
fallen to the lot of Southern
coach. At the same time,there isn't
anything quite so difficult to whip
into team as a siather of I'M
trained men. For instance. he
might have five men who seem
ideally fitted to play the center po-
sitiqn. Yet not onezof The five is
ready to jump in and play a pol
ished game at the position. So five
e good candidates aren't half as use ,
full, especially for an early game.
as one trained performer. For the
closing game Of the season Cum
bingham should have a well trained
team. Whether or not it is posi-
bic to get one ready for a game at
the middle Of october remains to
be demonstrated. If he doesn't, it
is no discredit. If he does, he will
have performed one of the most re-
markable feats ever accomplished

SECRET PRACTICE FOR
VANDY BEFORE GA. GAME

NASHVILLE. TENN, Oct. 14-Secret
practice has begun at Vanderbilt in prep
aration for the Georgia game in Atlanta
Saturday
Coach~McGugin has never followed the
Eastern practice of waiting to the last
month of the season to bring his team up
to it's fighting edge and this year more
than ever he is pushing matters on ac-
count of the fact that one of his hardest
games comes so early in the season.
What happened at the secret practice
in the way of developing new plays is
matter that only the coaches and the
players know. 1t is possible however,
that Georgia will have an opportunity to
ing to have to let themselves out to the
fullest to win from Cunninghams men

NOV. in the matter of condition:
The Commodores must play the
University of Virginia November
,, they must play Harvard Novem-
Der 9, and they must be ready for
Auburn November %.
To the Vanderbilters every one of
these three games is of more inn
portanCe than the Georgia game If
the Nashville players are in top
notch condition for the Georgia
game, they will go stale long be-
fore they get to Cambridge for the
game which is supremacy impor-
tant to them-the Harvard contest
A lot of McGugin's success has
been due to the excellent physical
condition he keeps his men in You
seldom hear of Vanderbilt PLAYER
being overturned. He keeps his
men in this condition by requiring
only light work. except when heavy
work is necessar N--and that is in
an occasional scrimmage and in
game.
You can put it down as an abso-
lutte certainty that the Vanderbilt
players will not be absolutely fit
and hard for the Georgia game.
And condition is surely a big part
of the battle in a close game

so arranged that Coach Cunning

In fact. Coach Cunningham will not

16, when Tech will be the Athen
ians' opponent Coach Cunningham
can get his men fit for Vanderbilt,
let them go stale and then bring
them around again before any eX-

A NY WAY YOU figure this Satur-
days contest it should be

has the chance of its career to pol
ish off the Commodores and to. win
the football championship of the
South.
If Cunningham and his men can
get by Saturday they will not be
headed this season. They have the
material and the men will be in
condition. They have been taught
all the football that they could pos
sibly assimilate in the short time
they have been training.
Can they overcome the team that.
year after year, has swept the best
in the South before it? It's a puz-
4le. But there'll be something doing
while they're solving it.

TO SEE MOVING PICTURES.
Barre Clergymen to Decide Whether Any
Should Be Censored.

At recent meeting OF the Barre
Clergymen's association, it was decided
to take some steps toward a possible
censorship of moving pictures displayed
in the local theatres, and to that end
committees of ministers were appointed
to conduct quiet investigation. 1t is
proposed that the clerical men shall visit
the picture houses in small groups I'M
announced. The idea of the movement
is to simply determine Just what kind
of films are being served up to the youth
of Barre The committee is vested with
no further power, although it is likely
that an agitation in favor of reform will
be started if the visiting ministers are
compelled - report adversely after max
ing their observations.
The following clergymen, divided into
pairs as here designated, will figure in
the observation tour of the moves:
Rev. J. w Barnett of the Congregational
church and Rev. p NJ. McKenna of st.
Monica's church; Rev. Duncan Salmond
of the First Presbyterian church and
Rev E. +. Newell of the Hedding Meth
odist church; Rev. J. b. Reardon of the
Universalist church and Rev. A. C. Grit
fin. curate Of ST. Monca's church; Rev
George II. Holt OF the First Baptist
church and Rev. w. J. NJ Beatte, rector
of the Church of the Good hSepherd.

the olergymen stated this forenoon, the

den fondness for western pictures or

State Publicity.

The present legislature will be asked
so to shape its course that when the bal
ance of its activities Is struck an adj
vance in the development of the state
will be shown. One of the best ways to
develop the natural resources of YER
mont is to let VermoHters and dwellers
in other states know that she has these
resources. And the way to do this is
by publicity. The beginning has already
been made and the work. thus far has
been of so satisfactory nature as to
warrant the spending of more money
through this channel. The state public
ity department has filled long felt
need but it has been by no means able
to exert its maximum influence because
of limited funds. Perhaps it was just
as well that the beginning was modest
one being sort of try-out, but now
that it is demonstrated that the work is
good one, it ought to receive the leg
islative attention that it has shown it
deserves. Adams Messenger
