A GOOD RECORD,

The auditors from the State Tax
Commissioner office who have been
working for several weeks auditing
the accounts of ex-sherifr Geo. b.
Amos. have almost completed their
work and they have found the ac-
counts in good shape Much of this
credit is due to the efficient office
management OF Z. F. Davis, who had
charge of the office work under
Sheriff Amos. MIR. Davis has always
been most painstaking and exact in
his accounts and it is doubtful If q

William Pendergast, comptroller Of
the city of New York, has withdrawn
from the Progressive party which he
helped found, declaring that the last

third party and that it only assures
the success of the Democrats, There

thinking the same way as Mr.. Pen

The principal thing the Republic
cans will have to guard against at
the election Tuesday will be the Vot-
ing Of illegal voters. The, council
made no effort to provide registration
of voters and 1t may be expected that
many illegal voters and Eepeaterss
will be voted if they are4not tclosetg
watched. Still with this prospect, in
view there will be no wholesale fraud
on the inside. That is a great relief
to contemplate. Us

McWhorter and Newell Marked
They Won't Star, Says Fuzzy

Newell is light, sparely built, fast
as flash, elusive as mallow bug
in a wash hole
McWhorter Is heavy, chunky, slow
in starting and then depending more
on his firnness OF foot and driving
power than his lodging prowess in
escaping tacklers.
Each man is supreme in his own
line, and each coach and each team
recognizes this.
Wherefore the special schooling and
wherefore the prediction that when
Saturday comes both Newell and Nc
Whorter, strive as they may will en-
counter specially built defense, built
with the one idea of holding them.
II Ut In the meantime there Is q
- young man named Crump-the
name rhymes with bump--who mag
do that thing to Auburn.
And while Georgia's attention il
concentrated on Newell it is in the
range OF possibilities that Mr. Harris
might make Southern football his
tory.
It's going to be mighty interesting
to watch.

"a ENTION the name of Bob Me-
MI Whorter in Auburn and 500
or 500 students will have
nightmares the night of the mention
ing. Suggest in Athens that GER
tain Kirk Newell will be among those
present at the title struggle between
Georgia and Auburn Saturday and
there will be furrowed broWs in album
dance around the classic campus.
Beyond doubt, these two men are
the individual stars of the Red and
Black and the Orange and Blue. the
South, in all it's football history, has
produced few better football players.
But that doesn't interfere with this
prediction, a prediction made boldly
and confidently:
NEITHER M'WHORTER NOR
NEWELL WILL STAR IN THE
GAME SATURDAY
And it will not be because they
don't try. The game Saturday means
more to them personally than all the
other battles they have engaged IN
during their long and glorious collie
giate and football career.

ANl Newell is captain Of Auburn. NC
Whorter will have played his last
Southern intercollegiate game when
the fnai whistle sounds saturday
There is every reason they VIII
work their heads off for victory and
for personal glory.
And that is where Fate will play
one of her numerous unklnd tricks.
M'WHORTER AND NEWELL, BY
REASON OF THEIR BEING STARS
WILL BE RELOCATED TO THE
RANKS OF THE SPEAR CAR
RIERS.
1t sounds paradoxical But it's
common sense. And here's the an
swer:
over in Auburn Mike Donahue real
ICES that his greatest danger lies in
McWhorter. In Athens Alex Gun
ningham knows that Newell is the
man he must most fear.
Both of these gentlemen are wise
In their generation and football. and
the result is that Auburn Is being
drilled with the particular point in
view Of stopping McWhorter, and
Georgia is being taught the best ways
and means OF mailing Newell.
IRON the minute these two demon
4 athletes trot on the field Saturday
they will be watched as closely by
the enemy as miser guards his gold,

Both Riverside and Georgia Military

HAROLD G|LL|ES
PICKED AS BEST
BRITISH GOLFER
Henry Leach Declares London
Amateur Has Shown Best Form,
in Recent Journeys,
Bv Chick Evans.

~HICAGO, Nov. 19.-Henry Leach
has been doing a little stock
= taking of the British golf sea-
a,- and he has come to the Conclu
sion that Harold Gillies, of Upper
Wfnp0le street, London, is entitled
.o the distinction of leading British
,uafeur. He says that Mr.. Gillies
IS not only great golf player but
G also profoundly interesting golf
study and he assigns himNthe posi-
.for Of chief amateur British golfer,
although he has never won a cham
pionship and did not proceed very far
IN ibe big amateur championship in
une,
In support of these views, Mr..
Leach presented Mr.. Gillies' claims
for the highest distinction in golf as
follows:
At the beginning of the season Mr..
lTlies won the st. Georges Vase at
Sandwich from a field of the very
first class. In the amateur champion
shin meeting at st. Andrews, al
though he did not get into the sixth
round, he nearly won the gold medal,
more nearly in fact than Mr.. Aylmer,
who got into the semi finals, or Mr..
Harris. who reached the final. Mr..
Leach arguing that these gentlemen
did not play good golf in these last
rounds Mr.. Aylmer was 2 up and /
to play and then lost unnecessarily
TO Mr. Hilton in the semi-finals, and
Mr. Harris played unusually poor golf
on the day of the final. Mr.. Hilton,
the British champion, defeated Gil
lies at the nineteenth hole in the fifth
round and Mr.. Gillies had previously
defeated Edward Blackwell, who
made the most dazzling display in the
qualifying section at the open in
June at the nineteenth"
Mr.. Leach also says in his article
that what Gillies did on the broad
park lands Of Chantilly was in some
ways even better than what Ouimet
lid in Massachusetts" The Chantilly
field was stronger than the Brookline
field, representing the best of the
zolfing world with the exception of
NardOn and Ray and the Ameri-
cans In this wonderful field Mr..
Gillies led for three rounds and he is
me only amateur who has ever led
IN open championship for three
rounds. The third round, however,
Mr.. Gillies was only leading Duncan
ny one stroke. and in the next round
IL fell down in his play and finished
nth.
This little history of golf season is
very interesting one, and altogether
Mr.. Leach has made out a good case
Tor his new client, who | hope will
continue TO justify the praise next
year.
We learn from Mr. Leach that Mr..
Gillies is a small man physically, and
Is q slow player and gives much
thought to his game. 1t is gratifying
10 learn that Americans are not the
My slow players in the world.
