S. l. "A. A. CHAMPIONSHIP NOW
IS LIMITED TO THREE STATES
Alabama, Georgia and Ten
nessee Teams Have a
Chance to Cop Title-Au-
burn the FavOrite
by MIKE DONAHuE

Auburn, November 5.-(Special.) )--The S.
|. A. A. championship is now limited to
three states, Alabama, Georgia and Ten
nessee. Auburn has eliminated directly,
Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas
Indirectly. The Mississippi "Aggies," aft
er losing to Auburn, came back and put
it over on the only Texas team in the S.
I. A. A. This gave Techs overwhelming
defeat of Sewanee makes 1t appear as if
the Texas teams were not up to the
standard of this section of the country.
Auburn is wasting no time in prepar-
ing for the Yellow Jackets. With the
exception of Lockwood and Sparkman,
the team came through the hard L. S. U.
game In good shape L. s. U. was by far
the strongest team that Auburn has met
; this year. They are heavy and expert
enced, and they put their whole season
on the Auburn game. One of the hard
est things about the Auburn schedule is
the fact that Auburn has had and will
have to play SO many undefeated teams.
Clemson so far was the only defeated
team that Auburn has played. Tech and
Vanderbilt are two undefeated teams and
the outcome of the Tech Georgia game
VIII decide whether Georgia will be in the
same category or not. Clemson will give
Georgia very hard game, though there
does not seem to be much chance OF their
4beating Georgia.
Electric lights have been installed on
Drake field at Auburn so practice will
continue from now on till after dark. New
signals and new formations have been
given the team for the three remaining
games. If Auburn expects to have any
chance to take three in a row from such
strong opponents 1t will have to get up
and hustle Everyone realizes this and
the team Is going after the work with
a zest and snap not visible SO far this
year.
Ii no injuries occur this week the Au-
burn ought to enter the game in good
physical condition. Atlanta is very fortu-
nate In the football menu that is going
to be served up there the balance of the
year. The games ought all to be close
and the teams going at their best some
or the best football ever seen in the south
ought to be on tap. The Auburn line
will outweigh all others from end to end,
but as great deal of this weight is a
hindrance rather than a help, weight
will not cut much of factor.
Auburn will probably have six of the
last years regulars in the game, provided
Lockwood is in shape, while Tech Will
have five, so 1t will be a question of
Prep school stars against substitutes and
scrubs. 1t will be a close fight any way
it goes.

Easily Defeats the Second
Eleven Princeton
Plays Used

Cambridge, Mass, November 5.-Har-
Yards varsity eleven downed an imagi-
nary Princeton foe in the stadium this
afternoon when they repulsed every at
tack by the second team. This team
strongly reinforced by coaches, was using
Tiger plays. The scrimmage, the hardest
of the week, was the last before Satur-
days game at Princeton.
The Crimson will go into this game with
its best strength available. Eddie Ma
ham the crack halfback, took part in the
hard work of the day. Trumbull. the
big cenetr, was released from the infirm-
ary. Both will be ready to play Satur-
day.
Harvard coaches gave much attention
to drop kicking today. BriclSley booted
the pigskin over the bars five times and
Mahan was successful on four tries. No
attempt at touchdowns was made.
Few on Injured List
Cambridge, Mass. November with
the injured list rapidly decreasing and
Crimson enthusiasm and confidence
mounting higher end higher, the Har-
ward football players ran into the sta
dium for one more afternoon of hard
practice in preparation for Saturdays
game with Princeton.
Harvards march to Jungletown will
start on Friday. The entire varsity
team, including Mahan and Trumb u]i,
will make the trip, though the speedy
halfback and the sturdy center may
not be in the lineup.
Mahan surprised the undergraduates
yesterday by appearing on the field
after a painful operation which has
kept him out of the play since the gams
with Pennsylvania State Trumbull's s
injuries sustained In the Cornell game
on Saturday~are expected to keep him
in the infirmary for another day, but
he hopes to watch the Princeton game
from the side lines. Nearly 1900 un-
dergraduates and a small army of
alumni will accompany the team to
Princeton.
