Athletics Work Opposing
HurlerS For Mdnv Passes

If the team that wins the next worlds
championship is to be the one that has
proved most successful in procuring fav-
ors from the pitcher this season, then
there will be general rejoicing in the
Quaker City on or about October 10 next
and general gloom in Manhattan. For the
Athletics have this year proved more
adroit in working the hurlers for trans
portation than have the Giants. The
Mackmen have been getting about four
bases on balls in each controversy this
year, while the McGrawites have been OBJ
tanning about three.
To October the American leagues pace
settlers had received 429 walks of the reg
ulation kind. while the National leagues
leaders had been acquiring 349. On neither
combination was the lead off man the in

rank with the best that the south af-
fords, and they are backed with a for
midable array of veterans. AS a
whole the Red and Black eleven seems
second to none in the south at pres
ent. Coach Cunningham is profitng
by mistakes of last season, when with
powerful team he was unable to get
1t into working order until late in the
season, and is putting mis- men through
grilling practices in preparation for the
early contests. The Red and Black
clashes with Alabama in Birmingham
ON October 10. and while odds greatly
favor the Georgians., an excellent fight
is predicted.
1t is a significant fact that Dan Me-
Gugin has begun scrimmaging the
Commodores earlier than usual this
season. The willy Vanderbilt leader
realizes that the material at hand,
while heavy and promising, is scarcely
as experienced as that which has been
at his disposal for the past several
seasons. Heretofore McGugin has
been content to work his veterans into
excellent condition, and not risk in
iuring them with early scrimmaging.
This season, however, fe realizes that
his new material must be given stien-
uous workouts in order to develop
their full ability by the time the sea-
son is in full swing. This does not
mean, however, that the Commodores
are weak. They are hardly the eleven
which represented Vanderbilt last fall,
but the Michigan wizard can be count
ed upon to place upon the gridiron an
aggregation which will take the num-
ber of large majority of opponents
this season.
The Southern Intercollegiate Ath-
letic association authorities have done
1t again. This time Georgia and Geor
gia Tech are the goats. Last year, 1t
will be remembered Mississippi was
the victim. 1t seems that some one
has whispered into the ears of the as
sociation authorities that Georgia and
Tech are playing ineligible men. Such
an insinuation startled the august as

Come to think of Il. how many in
ventors, authors and artists can you
name that we're rewarded according
to their merits, under this, or any
other system that is, or ever was in
existence?
Our friend is bound to admit that
something is fundamentally wrong
with our system of government. He
and his class offer nothing. When
an industrial panic comes, they tin
ker with the tariff. When a nation
goes wrong, they try to reform the
Individual. They are like Henry
Dubb, who used five dollars worth
of cologne on the carcass of a pig
that was lying in front of his door.

You ask how Socialism would
remedy all these evils. First, by
instituting a government by the
whole people, by electing all off,
Gals, including the Federal Judges,
by direct vote, with the Initiative,
Referendum and Recall. Second, by
having a complete industrial dem

all collectively used property will be
collectively owned, and all privately

as he gets now. There will be
much more private property owned
under Socialism than there is under
