Peru Rich In Minerals.

Peru Is generally conceded to be the third richest country in the world in the matter of minerals. Silver IS the most abundant of the metals and Is found in every section of the republic. In many places 1t is found in the na- tive state, in deposits of great rich- ness: It is said that between 1880 and 1924, the Jesuit priests took twenty seven tons of pure silver out of sin- gle valley, while other mines yielded hundreds of millions of dollars, even under the primitive methods of mining and extraction in vogue in the country.
 Gold is found in several sections of the country, although this metal was not mined te any great extent before the conquest by PizafTo, the Spanish eonquefers for sefne Fason giving all their attention to the silver mines, the native IAcas derived thsir fabu- lous wealth were abandoned for three centuries or mefe, and only within Ee- cent years has there been revival of mining for the yellow metal. Fhe rivers of Eastern Peru all have gold bearing gravel beds and hydraulic mining is likely to be carried on ex- tensiVely within the next few years.
 Although comparatively new in- dustry in Peru, mining for copper has proved a most profitable one, the mines at Cerro de RaSee being among the most famous copper mines of the weFld YaHii is another Important copper region, and modern melting plants have been eceeted at a number of the mining eeRtFes.-Fhe South American.

MARION PREPARING
FOR Pred. ELEVEN

Marion, November 22.-(Speeial. coach
Carter is now putting his varsity men
through stiff daily practice in prepara-
tion for the Thanksgiving game with the
Alabama Presbyterian college, which will
be played in Selma. This game was to
have been played on the institute cam
pus at Marion, but the authorities, were
offered good terms last week by the
Chamber of Commerce of Selma and for
financial reasons the place was changed
to that city. A special train will be run
to Selma from Marion on the day of the
game and many of the town people are
planning to accompany the students
This Is the greatest game of the year
for the Marion squad and the spirit of
rivalry between the two teams Is always
at fever heat. Several of the Marion
players have been on the sick list for the
past couple of weeks, but they have now
gotten back into the game and when
Thanksgiving comes they will be at their
old place. The Marion team has not lost
game in the past two years, and their
lege eleven places them among the
strongest teams in the state. The An
niston aggregation has had ali unusually
heavy schedule this season, playing the
University of Georgia, Mercer university,
Howard college and other strong elevens
and while they cannot boast of perfect
record in these games. still their show
ing in these battles easily vouch for their
strength and it will be hard struggle
when they lineup against the M. /.
fellows next Thursday.

WARNER HAS PERFECTED
NEW PLAY FOR INDIANS

Philadelphia, November ga new
play has appeared this year, devised
by eileen Warner of Carlisle.
The possibilities of Warmers play
were apparent at first sight, although
to conform to rule exactions it's legal
use depends upon perfect unison be-
tween center and the man figuring
nost prominently in the play. The
rules permit one man of the attacking
side to be in motion toward his own
goal before the ball is put in play, and

Warner utilizes as the principal factor

One of the Indian ends usually the
heaviest, moves out far beyond his
tackle, Immediately giving the impress

forward pass, and that he is the man
to whom the pass is to be made When
the player reaches the required dis
stant, looks at the center and imme-
diately dashes toward his team, which
is construed az running in the direction
of his own goal.
Just before he reaches the tackle
nearest him he slows up momentarily
and shouts a word unintelligible to the
opposition, but which the center in
terprets as the signal to put the ball
in play. The end being back of the

Manager Moose" Mccormick of the
Lookouts will not attend the league meet

good line on all his material, McCor-.
mick has hied his way back to New
York and will spend the time until after
the holidays hanging around the offices
of the Giants.
Since taking hold of the Lcokouts, Nc
Cormick has secured Third Baseman Fred
Graf, Outfielder Baby Doll'' Jacobson,
and Pitcher George Slime. These deals
have fully fortified the Lookouts in every
department except the flinging corps. Two
more hurlers are to be added but they
are already assured Mccormick, one COM
ing from the Giants and one from the
Tigers, so Moose has no occasion to
bother himself, except in the matter of
bringing the local athletes into the fold,
until the time arrives for the Inauguration
of actual spring training.

game Thanksg sgiving Kinney is in the
hospital with his leg in a plaster of
Paris cast, and the doctor refuses to
think of letting him out even for q
days practice prior to the game. 1t
will, therefore, be necessary to use
either Mcclure or Eustis at quarter,
which, of course will greatly lessen A
& Ms chances of victory. Noble is
able to run signals, but his shoulder
will permit no scrimmaging, so his
chances are very slim for the Thanks
giving game. While the team feels
keenly the absence of these two men
they are not letting it discourage them,
and will work that much harder to
overcome the obstacles that stand in
their way for victory over the Grim
son and White.
The news of VandeGraaff's injury.
while received here with much regret
for the old boy personally, has been
heralded on all sides with joy. Every
one knows of that big fellows ability
and the team breads his prowess more
than any other man on the Alabama
team. With VandeGraaff missing from
the Alabama lineup and Kinney from
the "Aggies' the teams will have no
cause to grumble about either team
being weaker than the other. These
men are very valuable assets to their
respective teams and will be missed in
dividually more than other members.
IT is practically settled that no spe<
cial train viii be chartered for the
student body on account of President
Hiehtower's refusal to grant, permis-
sion However, an effort will be made

selves before the human steam roller
and the Georgia defense finally
crumpIed.
Kirk Newell, captain of the Auburn
squad, and Bob, McWhorter, the
lender of the Georgia team, always
were to be found in the thick of the
fray. Each was playing his last col
lege football game. Each team, how
ever, was prepared for the rival star
and neither captain able TO make
his customary brilliant runs.
Auburn entered today's contest without
having met defeat during the present
season. Vanderbilt University was the
only team to cross Auburn's goal line un-
til Logan dashed behind the goal posts
today for the first touchdown of the
game
Forward Pass Successful

but trifle too warm for the players when

penalty Newell was forced to punt, Civ

within striking distance of the Alabama
goal. Paddock then received the ball,
shot it to Logan Georgia's end, who was

across the goal line. Henderson kicked
an easy goal. and the Georgia supporters

and the fierce Alabama offensive work
began again, but time was called with
out Auburn having scored.
The Auburn rooters were given cause
for elation early in the second quar-
ter Straight line plunges by Harris and
Arnold carried the ball to Georgia's four
yard line and Harris drilled through
tackle and guard for a touchdown. Ar
mold kicked goal and tied the score. Time
for the half was called without further
scoring.
Auburn received the ball on the kick
off for the third quarter and Newell, Ar
mold and Harris battered their way down
the field to within % yards of Georgia's
goal line. Christopher, fresh and eager,
replaced Harris at full for Auburn. His
strength told on weakening Georgia, and
after plunging onward tor consistent
short gains he crossed the goal line Ar
mold again kicked goal.
Another Touchdown Added
Auburn had possession of the ball in
the center of the field when time for the
third quarter was called. The final period
was begun With a rush, the Alabama
backfield hammering fiercely against
Georgia in rushes for five and 10 yards.
Captain Newell unexpectedly circed left
end for II yards being downed within
seven yards Of the goal line. Christopher
then plunged through right guard for
Auburn's final touchdown, and Arnold
kicked goal

supporters as the man who did more
than any individual to bring the southern
title to Alma Mater.
Especially in the last two battles
Tbigpen has won the admiration and ap-
proval of every critic in the south by his
steady playing and wonderful stamina,
and he bids fair to receive the serious
consideration when the all-southern selec-
tions are made.
Pitts and Robinson, at end and center,
respectively, represent two of the most
powerful and all round stars in Dixie to-
day. Already once chosen rs all-southern,
Robinson should have little trouble in
again winning his way to southern fame,
while many predict that Pitts Will supplant
Buddy Morgan as the acknowledged pre-
n1iere center in the south.
Victory rests with the Orange and Blue,
and the state of Alabama extends them
congratulations. Every man who fought
for Auburn during the Srilling season
past Is deserving of high commendation
but to these men especially is due the
credit of placing the Orange and Blue
eleven in the position which it now oc-
cupies and which it so richly deserves

Perhaps no quartet of gridiron war;
riors in the south has done so much to-
ward placing their team toward the fore
front in the gridiron world or has borne
the brunt or as many gruelling battles,
as have Captain Newell, Pitts, Robinson
and Pitts of the champion Auburn Tigers.
Since the early season, the sterling work
about which the Orange and Blue ma
chine built UP its string of triumphs. Both
extensively and defensively each man is
unquestionably a star and each will un
doubterly be strongly considered when
southern experts select an eleven to rem
resent the best of Dixie
Captain Newell at left half, an all
southern man of other seasons, stands
head and shoulders above all others in
the south in like position. His offensive
work during the recent games, which
brought victory to Auburn, has at all
times been sensational This is his last
year at Auburn and as captain and leader
he will live in the memory of Auburn's
