by ASA ROUNTREE, JR.
The crucial battle in the struggle for
the gridiron championship of the South
will be staged ON RiclsNood Field this
afternoon at 2:3O O'Clock between Au-
burn and Vanderbilt.
The Orange and Blue aggregation has
eliminated mississippi A. nnd NJ, LOUIS
iana State and Georgia Tech from the
championship race and only Vanderbilt
and Georgia block her path to the long
coveted title.
Either Auburn or Vanderbilt will be
eliminated entirely and should the for
mer be, then the gigantic struggle for
the football title will assume an en-
tirely different aspect and may, as was
the case last season. end in hopeless
tangle. The consensus of opinion
among southern football authorities
and enthusiasts seem to be that the
Donahue aggregation will emerge from
the conflict victor and the odds are
also favoring Auburn.
Battle Eagerly Awaited
Both elevens, primed to the last
notch of efficiency, are eagerly await
ing the opening of hostilities. The Au-
burn warriors realize that they have
an excellent chance to down their tra-
ditional rivals and are anxious to take
advantage of it. During the past week
they have been earnestly at work and

this afternoon in the pink of condi

weakened by the loss of Babe" Tay-

Auburn Should Win

Auburn has by far a better scoring
team than last season, when they held
the powerful Commodores to a tie, and
with the team in perfect trim should be

The game will be managed as have

Open Game for Vandy

In the game this afternoon it is very
likely that the Commodores will hold
to the open game entirely. This is in
dicated in the fact that McGugin has
been drilling his men during the past
week in punting, forward passing and
a number of new freak formations
Their attack will be concentrated
around Boensch and Skies. Boensch will
be called upon to do the punting and
make sweeping end runs while Skies
will deliver forward passes. The little
quarter is unquestionably one of the
fastest sprinters that has ever donned
moleskins at Vanderbilt and this should
prove a great aid to him when it comes
to slSirting the ends.

throwing anybody and everybody as
he goes along, heard of S. A. Stef-
onowicz of this city while in Mi
not, and came here last Thursday
to challenge the local man. Stefon
Immediately accepted the challenge
and arrangements were made for a
match to be held here next Satur-
day evening at the opera house.
Since coming to Bowbells Stefon-
owicz has never been thrown by
anyone of his own weight. and is
considered as good rs any IN the
state for his size. His strength is
out of the ordinary. and with each
match he has gaineu
more science. He has wrestled
with some pretty good men in his
time and will hold his own with
any man of near his own weight.
Olson has also built up for himself
quite a reputation through the
state on his tour, and has succeed
ed in throwing every man of his
own weight with whom he mixed.
He is trif1e heavier than Stefon,
but not enough to amount to any
thing. The match should prove to
be good one, and all Bowbclls
people should be on hand to see it.

M|NOT BANK CLOSED
BY STATE EXAMINER
SAVINGS DEPOSIT BANK IN Ma
GIG CITY QUITS BUSINESS
MONDAY.

Minot, n. D., Oct. 22.-The Saw
ings Deposit bank, nearly all of the
stock OF which is owned by Grant
S: Youmans, was closed Tate yestCf-
day afternoon by State Bank Ex-
aminer Sverre G.. Severtson. The
bank was closed for the reason that
the bank examiner objects to about
$4,000 in mortgages held by the
bank and asked that this amount
be replaced by cash.
The amount thought necessary to
save the bank on the start was
about $40, 900, and this amount Mr..
Youmans endeavored to raise. Lat
er it was ascertained, however,
that still more money would be re-
quircd. Efforts were made to in
duce other banks in the city to
take over the assets or the bank
and pay off the depositors, but these
failed, and the bank was closed by
the bank examiner.
The deposits of the bank amount
to about $4,000, and it is thought
that these will be paid in full. The
bank has about $12.OU0 in cash on
hand, ana the BUILDING owned by
the bank On Main street is very
conservatTely listed in the bank at
$3.50. and the fixtures are placed
at the low figure of $4,000.
The whole situation hinged on the
100000 mortgages held by the
bank as part of it's assets. While
State Bank Examiner Sevcrtson did
not state today how much of this
was objected to, it was learned
from other sources that he found
fault with approximately $4,000
of these securities, and asked that
they be replaced by cash.
