Forage Plants,

For four important reasons, the clo-
vers are among the most valuable Of
forage plants. First the manurial cost
of their production Is exceptionally
low. Second, they are richer in pro-
tein than most Of the forage crops;
far richer than the grasses. Third,
they enrich the soil In nitrogen as
we'll as subsoil 1t, 30 that the follow
ing crops are almost invariably good.
Fourth, in permanent mowings they
ultimately 30 enrich the soil in nitro
gen that the grasses as well az the
cloyers make vigorous growth.

NARL MORRIS, who fights Jack

he isn't the greatest fighter in the

might have a chance to regain the
heavyweight championship for the

from Jeffrjes in that memorable
July battle.
Morris was manipulating the lie

Greatest Football Play | Ever
Saw--Written by Tom Kittrell

was no loiteTing to gather flowers.
The play had been well conceived,
and was faultlessly executed.
Sewanee's quarter and left half
back passed outside of Vanderbilts
right tackle, as the interference
against the latter's back field, with
Cleveland on their heels. The ruse
of the punt had paved the way,
and Cleveland's speed and lodging
did the rest. Soon he was head
ing a procession of the Old Gold
and Black players down across the
field for a touchdown.
In SeWanee's first play she had
scored a touchdown after a run Of
something over 107 yards.
While Cleveland was the star per-
former his support was all that
could have been desired; every man
performed his part with the preci-
sion and thoroughness that ordi-
narily results only from the most
careful coaching.
With this beginning, aided by
her superior offensive work, Sewa-
nee scored a decisive victory, her
first upon Dudley Field.

annual gridiron struggle between

OF the yellow Jackets, as they fig
ure that Coach Heisman viii turn
loose everything in his category In
an effort to get the decision over
the Tigers.
AS regards the Tech game, Geor-
gia supporters believe that the Red
and Black will win by a narrow
margin and not by big score, as
has been predicted by many Of the
wise ones" The prowess of one
j HeiSman is too well known and
commands too much respect in
these Quarters-and for this reason
alone a small score is expected.
Georgia has at last struck it's
stride, AZ is manifested by the work
of the players in the Sewanee and
Clemson games. The playing

weeks and the interference is now

Through a series Of unfortunate
injuries, Coach Cunningham has

into the game Woods work did

Valiantly they have applied themselves
to the work of perfecting their water
powers. The majority of club members
are taking unusual interest in the
team. and if encouragement counts for
anything, the squad already has a big
Roadway. At present the work is most
ly on the crawl stroke and the speed
with which these athletes are plowing
their way through the pool every night
seems sufficient proof that 1t has been
mastered.
The members of the squad are Hav-
erty, Plant. Huff McIntire, Crane. Du-
bard, Weaver Hoyt, Kelly and Wynans
Crane is an old New York Athletic
club swimmer and is east rounding into
