TURNER TO TAKE FULL, WHILE SYKES WILL REPLACE HARD AGE-COLLINS IS IN BAD CON- OPTION

Nashville, Tenn. November a.-tSpe- cial.)-coaches MeGugln and Manier have been compelled to prepare for the Auburn and Sewanee games with Sikes' at half and Turner at full and now they are com pelled 10 admit that Hardage is in so condition for any kind of physical strain and is not expected to be in usable shape, at least for the Auburn game.
 The outlook. as outlined, puts the re- sourceful MeGugin at his direst extremity with the possibility of what promised to be his greatest season ever turning into a possible final disaster like that cul- minating the year 1909 when Sewanee triumphed oyer his battered leglons; and none the least depressing from q Wander bilt standpoint is the unfortunate turn of events in the light of Hardages in- jury, which promises to end his football career when 1t looked the rosiest with chance of winning national recognition in the game with Harvard
 As is well known. Hardage played two years under Donahue at Auburn and nat urally he felt that the last of his four years of football experience and as cap
  l " closed with a good exhibition before Alabama and Auburn folks. The hurt to Collins in the Mississippi game, the gruel- Ing bout with Virginia when upon both occasions he had to be almost entirely relied upon for advancing the ball. the hard trip to Harvard and the bad injury there put the Decatur boy all to the bad and what with touch of ptomaine poisoning just prior to the Virginia game and worry over his enforced absence from the game and tho possibility of not being able to play any more has pre- vented him from recuperating and return ing to form
 So that the team that faces Auburn Saturday will in all likelihood be minus the Commodore leader and captain for he has not appeared In practice this week and can only hobble about on his bad leg with at present but distant hope Of being able to play in tile Thanksgiving game with sewanee, the very last game in which he is ever eligible to play as q college athlete.
 The resourcefulness of McGugin, from present outlook. will place the hazard of the game with Auburn to a DO per cent new baekfield.

This will neces- sarily put into the game a sub who will doubtless be Yunk Chester. who will have to try the very responsible Job of holding

Sorro7oful Tales Coming
 From Auburn and "Vdndv"
Hardage Morgan Ressac and Lamb Might Not Be Able to Come-Specuation Concerning the 0utcome-Consen
 sus of Opinion That Vanderbilt in Normal
 Condition Will Win By Minimum of Two Touchdowns
Fly HUGH ". ROBERTS

According to reports, neither Auburn nor Vanderbilt will enter the game on Redwood Field Saturday afternoon with a team intact.
 Hardage, according to a story from Nashville, for which an assistant com modore coach vouehes, will not be able to play and from the same authority it is learned that there is a chance that Morgan will also be prevented by his injuries from competing.
 From Auburn the tale is just as sor- rowful. It is understood that Res sijac is down and out, and that Lamb will not be in condition to enter such strenuous struggle as the football game of Saturday promises to be.
 There is a great deal of speculation in Birmingham as to the outcome of the struggle despite the fact that those be- 1ieving Auburn will win are few and

Tar between The subject most gen erally discussed Is By how many points will Vanderbilt win9s On this there is great difference Of opinion
 With the teams in normal condition Vanderbilt should win by minimum of two touehdowns and a maximum of three. Auburn should have little op- portunity to score unless by means other than straight forward football.
 Those who believe that Vanderbilt will wipe Auburn off the field are mis- taken. Auburn has been beaten, but never crushed This is due to the fact that Mike Donahue, while being less brilliant than some on the offensive, is essentially a defensive coach and equal in that regard to the best

 this view of the situation and has been careful to go over all the mistakes made by the Crimson warriors against the Dartmouth team. Yale forma tions, especially those that were used against Princeton, have been thoroughly dis sected and analysed before the liar yard players Charlie Brickley has put In the week in constant praeticins Of kicking drops. His work has been es- pecially pleasing to the Crimson coaches who figure that footwork will play an important part in the con- test.
 While Yale was not especially hurt in the Princeton battle, the Blue eleven is not in the pink condition that Har- yard is. Individual lameness and sore ness has prevented consistent scrub ping at New Haven this week. Hard signal practices have been the pro- gramme, coupled with perfecting wing shift formations and a defensive sys- tenn of play.
 No changes in the Yale lineup from that which played Saturday have yet been announced. The back field will probably consist of Spalding, Phiblin and lynn Pumpelly, despite his great drop-kicking ability, will probably be saved as a substitute for such a crisis that arose in the contest with Prince ton when he saved the day for the Blue eleven.

HARVARD FINISHES PREP PARAT|ONS FOR
 CONTEST WITH YALE:

Cambridge, Mass. November 20.-The Harvard teams preparation for the game with Yale was practically completed to- day.
 The varsity squad started today's prac- tiee by taekling the dummies Then the linemen were taken aside for special coaching. while the ends chased up and down the gridiron under punts by Felton and Hardwiek. Afterward the first and second teams lined up in scrmmage, the second team running through the known Yale plays without making appreciable headway, while the varsity uncovered it's full repertoire of offensive strategy planned for Yale.
 Except for a slight cold, Of which Hard wick complained today, every man on tho team Is in good condition and ready for he fray Saturday.

Nashville. November a.-tspeeial)== Asked to forecast the result of the All Vanderbilt game. l can only say that I am merely an assistant football coach and not a elairvoyant. The time keepers whistle next Saturday afternoon Is about the best authorityzI know of on the outcome of this big affair. Both Me- Gugin and myself realize that Auburn will let loose all the strength and attack
 they have so carefully concealed and boarded up during the teams play this year. The fact that Coach Donahue saw all the tricks of Vanderbilt and the for ward pass formations both defensively and extensively will make this weeks work all the harder, since We must practically create an entirely new set Of plays. We are looking forward to the fiereest oppo- sition the Vanderbilt team has been up against this year, That is excepting the Harvard game. We will have to be mighty careful 10 bring the team back home in good enough shape to put them in the sewanee game with any sort of chance to win. I was not the least bit

CAPTAIN HARDAGE
 MAY NOT PLAY
 AGAINST AUBURN

Nashville, November 2o.-with capt. Lewis Hardage Of the Vanderbilt foot ball team still unable to take part in sig nal practice on account of the ankle hurt at Harvard and Morgan suffering from the ehills, the feeling at Vanderbilt uni- versty is anything but bright over the prospects of win Saturday at Birming- ham over Auburn. Hardage is out in uniform but limps badly. The absence of the great half back has forced shift Of the line Sykes has been placed at left half back, Left End Turner has gone to full in Sykes place, and Reams. a re- serve, is being tried at end. The changes are working satisfactorily however, and Vanderbilt may face Auburn with the foregoing backneld. Coach Yost of Michi- gan is here aiding MeGugin.

TEAMS HAVE HAD LAST SCRIM- MAGE AND ARE IN GOOD CON- OPTION FOR CHAMPIONSHIP CONTEST

The last strenuous practice has been held by both Harvard and Yale, and the two squads doing just enough work to keep them on a keen edge are wait ing for the referees whistle which will mark the beginning of their strug gle for the eastern football champion ship. Harvard came through the con- test with Dartmouth last Saturday in good shape, and constant work this week on the part of the Crimson train CTS has enabled the Harvard coaches to have their team on the eve of the big battle in the best condition as whole that has existed in the Crimson camp in years.
 The work of the Harvard team against Dartmouth was not up to the standard expected by the coaches. Ac- cording to some critics Harvard has gone back since their victory over Princeton. Coach Wilmington takes

 Coach MeGugin is not cast down. how ever, having never yet burned any bridges in advance. If Hardage cannot play at all in the Auburn game or even in the Sewanee contest he will simply let the dice lie and take sporting chance with the odds apparently against him both ways.

But l rather expected to see se= vance Just rounding Into form and was greatly impressed with the way the Purple backfield men performed. They are fast and shifty and will give Us no end Of trouble Thanksgiving Day. Talk ing about Sewanee must not be construed as wandering away from the Auburn game because the two fit closely into each other and the score in the sewanee game will depend largely on the way Dona- hues team treats ns next Saturday. When il comes 10 talking about the con- dition of the Commodores, I am more It home, for the cripples are my special charges. 1 am very much afraid that Morgan will not be able 10 start at all Saturday. since he is suffering from grippe and his physician has told him he must not play. There is not chance for Hardage to start in the Auburn game. as his ankle Is in such shape that he is hardly able 10 walk and no amount of treatment will get him into condition hY Saturday. The loss Of these two splendid
 players will weaken our chances about eeo per cent. We can only do our level best and hope for the long end of the score.

Agriculture Leads at
Iowa State College

Agriculture is coming into its own
at Iowa State college. The agricul-
tural division of the institution en-
rolls more students this year than all
other divisions put together. For the
first time the number has passed the
thousand mark and there is promise
of still larger gains in the future.
This showing does not count the win
ter short course students nor the sum-
mer school students, but only students
who are in college for the whole year.
In all departments 2,510 young men
and young women are enrolled in the
college.
Deducting the students enrolled for
the winter and summer short courses,
there are an even 1900 enrolled in the
regular college courses, which equals
the high-water mark of attendance
which was registered in the school
year 1908-9. The summer school last
summer enrolled sc students; the win
ter short course in January, GA.
This high-water mark attendance of
1900 all-year students Is divided as
| follows among the different divisions:
| Agricultural division .1041
Veterinary division ....................... So
Engineering division OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. $50
General science division ................. 80
Special and other ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 81
The present year enrolment in the
agricultural course more than doubles
that of five years ago. The new two
year courses have contributed to this
result with their present enrolment
of 1888, but without that there has been
fine gain.
| In the other divisions there is just
as healthy condition. The classes
are all we'll filled AM. attendance is
satisfactory.
This army of students represents
every county in Iowa, and it includes
men and women from 80 other states
and from IA foreign countries, includ-
ing India, China. Chilli, Paraguay, Ar
gentina, Mexico, Canada, Central
America, South Africa, Denmark,
Porto Rico, Cuba, Scotland. Philip.
pines.
OF the $50 students enrolled in all
courses, 2,217 were men and 293 wom-
en-. Iowa furnished 2,244 of them.
Story county in Iowa led the counties
with representation of 374; Polk
came next with 1874. Davis county
contributed the smallest number, with
only one.
