to do with the inside story Of the

Wood and Buck O'Brien were said
to have come to blows prior to the

this player.

figuring, of course, that Joe would
do the pitching. As a matter Of
fact, he was betting on his broth

That Tech Tiger Thanks
giving tie-up is touted to be
a thriller. Certainly the Tigers-are
going to do their utmost to make
amends for all shortcomings Of
whatever kind during the present
somewhat erratic season. At times
the Clemson bunch has given evil
dence of remarkable ability, only to
fall down fiat at the very next cri-
sis
The team that will go up against
the Yellow Jackets will be the very
best that has been lined up this
season. The same statement might
be made in regard to the Tech line
up. But there is this difference:
Clemson regards the game with the
Yellow Jackets as the biggest event
of the season, while Tech looks
upon the Georgia game as the clas-
sic happening. Tech is going to be
a little over-contident.
Another thing that is going to
make this seasons contest more IA
vorable to the Tigers than any
previous engagement will be the
presence of Clemson rooters in
large numbers.
A special train will be run from
Calhoun that will take down All
the cadets that care to go. The rate
is just about one fare-$4-and a
couple Of hundred of the lusty-
lunged have already signified their
intention Of taking the trip. Sew
eral members of the faculty will
also go down to witness the game.
Colonel Josiah Cunmins has given
permission to all who have not too
many dement's to take the trip.
Never before has the Clemson team
played Thanksgiving game with
Tech save when the lonely Tigers
had only a corporal's guard of sup
porters.
There is a Clemson club in At
lanta now that will likely add con-
siderable volume to the Tiger din
on Turkey day.
The Tigers are in excellent con-
dition for the fight of their lives.
Two OF three of the men are out
of the game but there are others
to take their places Schroeder has
appendicitis; Gee has a fractured
shoulder, and Presley, the fighting
half back has a bad leg. Other
wise. the men are fit. The only
trouble now is the short time for
practice. Coach Dobson says that
he has only fifteen minutes OF day

lights help some, but not much real
football can. be pulled off under
such conditions.

bilt game, l can only say that / am
merely a football coach and not a

whistle next Saturday afternoon is
about the best authority that / can
think Of on the outcome of this big
affair.
Both McGugin and myself real
lie that Auburn will let loose all
the strength and power Of attack
they have so carefully concealed
and boarded during the teams play
this season. The fact that Coach
Donahue saw all the tricks Of Van
derbilt and the forward pass for
nations both defensively and Of
fensively 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
fercest opposition the Vanderbilt
team has been up against this year

game. we win have to be mighty
careful to bring the men back

WILL BUILD NEW GOLF
COURSE AT EAST LAKE

TIME Atlanta Athletic club will
have a new golf course at
East Lake. Work has already
been started on it. When it is
completed, most Of the present
course will be abandoned
While the present course at East
Lake is the best in the South, II
falls short Of solfins perfection in
several respects. For one thing. it
has no "mashie holes" The two
shortest are the first and the third.
and both Of them are brisk miGiron
shots for all. except the longest
players. For another thing. the
second hal fof the course is too
stift-a succession Of hard holes
without short one to break it up.
Another tremendous disadvantage
is the fact that the ninth hole is
on the far side Of the lake and an
unconscionable distance from the
club house. This makes il impoe-
sible for anybody playing a short
round TO get in nine real holes and
then get back home again without
tremendous walk. The present
course also contains several holes
that are distinctly bad" from
golfng viewpoiut-that is. they are
of such a length that a good player
has no advantage over a poor play
er, and man who makes a poor
drive has "a good a chance to hole
hole perfectly. Among these justly
despised drive and pitch holes on
the present course are the fifth.
