VANDY LINEUP
STILL A MYSTERY
McGugin Has Not Been
Able to Decide on Team
for Michigan Game

Nashville, October 22-Just what Van.
derbilt's opening line-up will be against
Michigan in their game here Saturday
continues to he mystery, and it is evil
dent that Coach McGugin has not yet
been able to decide this all-importani
question. He used two complete sets OF
backs and linemen in signal drill this aft
ernoon, and any of them may be called
on to start. Practice continued until after
dark.
Vanderbilt will face Michigan without
having scrimmaged since last weeks
game with Henderson, following McGu
gins usual custom of as little scrimmagt
work as possible. His chief desire is &c
have team work perfected on number
of new plays and for his men to enteI
the game in prime physical condition
Vanderbilt followers are confident of be-
ing able to defeat Michigan, although
indications are that Yosts line-uI
against Vanderbilt will be much stronger
than the one that lost to the Michigan
Aggies last week. The Michigan team
arrives here tomorrow night and will be
the guests at monster mass meeting at
Vanderbilt university.

mississippi team, though inferior In
numbers, are nevertheless planning to
give their eleven a welcome that will
not fall far in the rear of the one which

eleven. Although the odds are in favor
of Auburn the adherents of both teams
are unanimous in their belief that tho

one. The Auburn squad will arrive In
the city Friday evening and it is also
probable that the Mississipians will ar

they did in the practice games.

LOSE TO BARONS
Local Contingent Captures
Eighth Battle by Nice
Margin
Played. Won. Lost. Pet.

Havana .............s 1853
IN game featured by the ragged field
ing and the heavy stick work of both
teams, the lsarons defeated the Alrnen-
dares, 12 to s, in the eighth game played
in Havana on October 16.
Hogg was on the mound for the local
contingent and he was found by the Gu
ban sluggers for a total of II safeties.
The Barons also accumulated like num-
Der off the Cuban moundsmen.
The accompanying account of the game
appeared on the following day in the
Havana Post:
The game at Almendares park between
the birmingham and the Almendares
clubs resulted in victory for the former
by score of u to 8.
The game might well be termed COM
edy of errors because almost as many err
rors were made as there we're runs. To
be exact, there were 12 errors to the dis
credit of the players. OF this number,
the visitors contributed A, which was bad
enough, but the locals just dolioled that
number. The finest little error maker OF
the afternoon was Romanach, the short
stop of the Blues, who contributed to-
tai of 5.
The Cubans tried three pitchers during
the game, Lozano, Gutierrez and Pedroso
filing through the box. Hogg held the
box down for the Birminghams and
famed seven men and gave two bases
on balls.

New Orleans, October 22.-Goodsen, a
medico," who did great work for Tu-
ane on the end at the beginning of last
year, and Underwood, a freshman with
plenty of weight, were added to the var
sity football squad Monday afternoon
when Coach Hoffman began preparation
for the contest with the University of
Aabama at the staudium next Saturday
afternoon.
That Tulane's defeat by Mississippi last
Saturday has had depressing effect on
the student body Is no secret. The alb
sence of Manness, Randolph and Stewart
is responsible in a great way for the
showing Tulane made, not only mas
much as it robbed them of their best
men, but the reduction in numbers played
havoc with the reserve force In the way
of substitutes, and this had telling effect
n the game they played
George was practically out, but he was
forced to continue in the game. There
was no one to relieve Marks at quarter,
and Hoffman was hard pushed for a sub
when Hopkins received knock on the
head which dazed him.
According to advance dope stories,
Alabama does not stand out as such a
celebrity this year. Whatever their
strength, Tulane realizes that they have
to make strong showing, If not win,
next Saturday, and they have set earnest
ly about the task. If they make as much
improvement over their performance
upon this occasion as they did over their
showing against JEFFERSON, they will no
doubt win the game. The strength shown
on the line was encouraging.
Goodsen quit play last year at the open
ing of the season, after sustaining u
hurt. He is considered a valuable end
Underwood has had football experience
and Is a husky chap.
None of the "medicos" will return to
the team, It is said. The classes in that
department continue until $3.50 In the
evening, and 50 they are cut off from all

though some were hard used In Satur

VOL VERINES LEAVE

Vandy Saturday

Ann Arbor, Mich, October 22.--Coach
Yost left today with 20 of University OF
Michigan Football players for Nashville,
where the Wolverines will meet Wander
bilt on Saturday.
The veteran coach had little to offer in
the way of moonlight prediction as to
the result of the game.
Joy reigned in the Michigan camp this
afternoon when Jimmy Chaig. star half
back on the 1911 and 1912 Michigan foot
ball team, appeared In suit and joined his
fellow-men In practice. Craig had decided
not play football this year because of an
injured knee he sustained last fall, but
he yielded to urgent pleading of the en-
tire student body. 1t is expected he will
be in the line against Syracuse university
week from next Saturday. He did not
leave for Nashville.

TO TEST EFFECT
OF TARIFF REVISION
BILL ON POTTERY

New York, October 22.-The effect of
the tariff reduction ON pottery--wheth-
er 1t will compel a decrease or permit
an increase in the wages of employees
in that trade-will be tested under Il
tentative two-year wage agreement
signed here today between the United
States Pottors' association and the Ma
tional Brotherhood of Operative Pot
ters.
The agreement reached after week
of negotiations, renews the present
wage schedule for two years. but pro-
vides that either sides may reopen the
negotiations On 60 days notice given
not earlier than February /, 1911, and
not later than August 1, 1914.
The operatives asked for a 10 per
cent increase in wages and the en-
ployers desired to reduce wages on the
ground that the lower tariff will lessen
their profits. roday's compromise was
accepted until the actual effect of the
new tariff can be determined. Should
neither side give notice before August
1, the agreement will become perma-
nent until October 22. 1915.

Auburn Considered AS Techs
Hardest Opponent By Heisn1dn

Chattanooga. October 22-tSpecial.)
From remarks made while here attending
the Tennessee-sewanee game, Heisman. of
the Jackets, considers Auburn the tough
est proposition which Tech will stack up
against this year. From the tenor of
his remarks Heisrnan believes that Au-
burn will give the Jackets harder bat
tie than will Georgia. And as the Jackets
also meet the Tigers, Heisman evidently
believes that Auburn has an edge on
Sewanee.

loquacious mood while here and in addi-

sHAPE-TEAMS WILL ARRIVE
FRIDAY
nx AsA RouNrRri. sn.

Final preparations are being made in
both the Auburn and Mississippi foot
ball camps for the battle, which will be
staged in Birmingham Saturday after
noon. Both Donanue and the Mississippi
coach are exerting every effort to round
the teams into the best possible condi-
tion, and it is more than likely that both
teams will be in tip top shape when they
line up against zach other at Rickwood.
During the past few years all of the
games between them have been close. In
fact, one touchdown has decided each,
and it is anticipated that this game Will
prove no exception. The auburn team
expects a low score, but they also expect
to come out on the long end.
Donahue has spent the past weeks prac
tice in strengthening the weak spots that
have shown up in the early season games.
The back field has gained a little in speed
during the week and is also handling the
ball better. The line Is also showing mp
better, both on the defense and the Of
fense. The two ends are covering punts
in fairly good form and on the defensive
are having no trouble in breaking through
the interference OF the scrub BACK neld IN
practice.
A. & M. in Good Shape
The reports from the Mississippi camp
are to the effect that the team is in fine
physical condition, and that it is showing
marked improvement on both the offense
and the defense. The Oh * field has
shown wonderful Improvement since the
opening OF the season, in both speed ana
plunging ability. Practices are being in
dulged in every day, and the men are
being welded into a fast and scrappy
eleven. The men are jubilant over their
recent victory over Central of Kentucky,
and are anxious to gain decision over
the Auburn squad.
The game Saturday viii be the second
OF the season. Enthusiasm over 1t is rum
ming high among the local gfidiron enthu-
siasts. The Auburn alumni a ~ making
great preparations to give their team a
rousing welcome, and the adherents of
the Asgiessare also striving to greet their
team in worthy manner.
The Auburn warriors will arrive in the
city on Friday night and 1t is also ex-
pected the Agricultural and Mechanical
team will also arrive during the same
evening.
The game will start Saturday afternoon
at O'Clock. Tickets have already been
put on sale and according to reports from
the various stands they are selling ut a

Turkish Artillery.

Authorities tell us that the Turks owe
their reverses in recent years to their
weakness in artillery. In 1853 it was by
virtue of their artillery that they cap

garian named Orban came to COnstan-
tinople and offered his services to the
Greek emperor as the "ablest founder
in history" Constantine offered him
unsatisfactory conditions and he es-
capped to Mohammed Il, who COM

as proof of his talent. Orban took three
months over the task, and the cannon
was called probably as an Omen) Ba-

proclamation concerning the day on
which it would be tested in Adrianople,
with good reason, for the explosion was
heard for thirteen miles around. The
size of the cannon was heroic. Fifty
yoke of oxen were necessary to move
it, 200 men marched at the side to sup
port it, 200 engineers went in front to
