IA. & M. WILL COME ID. FIGHT A GOOD GAME:
 FOR HONORS TODAY
Many Members of the Team Suffer With Various Ail- ments But Will Die
 Game to Last

Starkeville, Miss, october 23.-(Spe- astrous Kentucky trip in very bad shape and has been unable to round into much form since. The long trip seemed to have taken the edge off the team leaving them listless and with out much pep" Many of them suffered severe injuries in the game, and will be in no shape for the hard Auburn game. Nearly all of the backfeld has been laid up with sore ankles, knees. charley horses" etc. and have been unable to get into much of the prac- tice since the Kentucky game.
 However A. & M. will go to Bir- mingham determined to fight until the very last, hoping to outgame and out fight Auburn, and turn what now looks like inevitable defeat into vic tory. The student body will accompany the team something over 200 strong, and those rooters, together with the crack cadet band, will do much to put fight into the Maroon and White team out on the field. s-
 McArthur and Kimball, both first string backs, have been laid up all week with sore shoulders and lame legs. Kinney, the quarter, suffered a wrenched knee in the Kentucky game and has been out of the practice ever since. There is some doubt as to his being able to play at all in the game Saturday, Noble will probably take his place, if he is unable to start the game.

any way brought on technical rulings of the Southern Intercollegiate Ath- letic association as to summer ball.
 This fact about Jopln's ineligibility was brought to our attention by a tative of the management of Sewanee A. L4 Browne went on record as not being in sympathy with pro- test And further. we went on rec ord with representative of Alabama that we as alumni were not in sym pathy with protest and felt sure that We could put those in authority at Sewanee down as of the same opinion. And all our data and con- versaions were previous to any knowledge of Tennessee's protest.
 We say the above not in any way to defend Joplin but to take advan- tage of the opportunity for Sewanee to uphold her record for broad sports manship and to further her desire to play the best team that any of her opponents can put in the field com posed of bopafi1e students
 We would like to hear your ideas and also those of others officially con- nected with athletics at Sewanee in regard to this. If you can wire Ala bama before official action is taken, sending us a copy, it may not only carry weight but delay will prob ably rob Sewanee of half its worth. Yours truly,

FOUR b|G GAMES IN .
 MIDDLE WEST TODAY
Chicago-P Perdue Fight Prom ises to Be Close-Cham-
 pionship Claims Involved

Chicago october 23.-Four games in volving mid-western championship claims will hold the interest of football followers of the central states tomorrow. The time for coaches to conceal their fancy tactics being oyer, experts expect that what ever is new in lineup and strategy will be brought into play. Chicago's hopes of another clear big nine title depends on beating Perdue, probably the strongest opponent yet to face the Maroons. Minnesota s champion ship possibilities probably will be revealed in it's game with Iowa, for those who watched the Chicago-Iowa contest last Saturday predict gruelling struggle.
 Further possibilities of the Rugby pass when adopted to American football, as shown in the Yale-Notre Dame game last Saturday, may be seen when the latter clashes with South Dakota. s-4-
 The meeting between Michigan Aggies and Nebraska, both of whom went through last season without defeat and laid claim to championship honors, Is a fourth con test that will be tfraught with unusual interest

 At Iowa City: Minnesota CO vs. Iowa CO.
 At Sioux Falls: Notre Dame (2D vs. South Dakota @.

Say Letter to Vanderbilt In Regard to Sikes Re- moval Showed True Sportsmanship and Affords Example For Other Members of S. l. A. A. Suggests Similar Letter to Alabama In Regard to Joplin

 Dear Sirs: We have noted the let ter to Vanderbilt in regard to Sikes, and wish to advise that the alumni here are heartily in favor of that action. It again shows Sewanee's sportsmanship and affords a generous example that other members of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic as- sociation would do well to follow.
 We believe that the case against Joplin of Alabama is in a way sim liar to that of Sikes. and as we hap pen to know that Joplin is a bona nde and not a hired ringer and, there fore, we alumni feel that it is an op- portunity for Sewanee to show fur ther her sportsmanship and broad mindedness by writing Alabama to the effect that in so far as Sewanee is concerned, she is willing to waive any ruling against Joplin. feeling that it is better to go down in defeat at the hands of Alabama at her best than to win with Alabama handicapped in

Despite bear stories that have been received by The Age-Herald regarding the Aggie aggregation, the Mississippi coach when seen last night at the Motion did not seem depressed over the impend- ing battle with the Auburn warriors on Redwood Field this afternoon. He did not seem overconfdent, but gave the i'm pression that his team would put into the days argument every ounce of fighting strength it possesses to win.
 The Auburn delegation are confident of victory. Graduate Manager of Athletics Thomas Bragg said last night that he be- Heved the Auburn boys would win todays game. He does not predict a huge score and the dope does not point that way.
 About Evenly Matched
 The teams are about evenly matched as to weight. It will be battle of wits, for the most part, and the team that has the quickest thinking machine will go over the goal lines first.
 Coach Donahue last night made the following statement to The Age-Her- aid:
 According to the dope, we have a shade the best of the argument before the game begins. Our team weighs an

According to the information we have, there are many sore shoulders, sore ankles and other ailments in the Mis- sissippi camp, but we are not counting on these reports The Aggies expect to win They are not hoping to keep the score down. But 1 think Auburn will win
 Coach Chadwick of the Mississippi A and M. last night issued the following statement to The Age-Herald:
 "The outlook now Is doubtful. Minoi injuries to our team have had a bad effect the past week, and some of our stars have been kept out of scrim- mage work because of sore ankles or shoulders. The Auburn team has been picked by many fans to win to- day. It may do it. However, the Az gies will make the game very inter- estfng from the beginning. There will be no dragging movement. Everything will move swiftly If Auburn wins she will have earned her game"
 Probable Line-Up
 The probable lineup of both teams which may be altered slightly, is as fol. lows:
 Auburn-Pitts, center; Taylor, Sample guarus; Ihgpen, Lou1sell, tackles; Rear, ley, Robinson, ends; Hart. Arnold, half. backs; Hairston, quarterback Bidez, liar. ris, fullback.

Sidelights from the Sideline

There is just chance that Joplin up this afternoon. Tennessees protest reached Alabama authorities after the team had left. for Knoxville and con- sequently they will be unable to take any action until after the players re- turn. President Buchanan wired pr. Denny of Alabama that all evidence in the case had been forwarded to President Riggs of the Southern Inter- collegiate Athletic association. Un- der the rulings of the association, Joplin may be allowed five days in which to answer the charges preferred against him, and in that case he may play against Tennessee today. Ten nessee, however, may block his play ing on technical grounds. Whether she does or not will show whether it is fear of an Alabama victory or a desire for clean athletics that is actuating Tennessee's move.
 That Southern Intercollegiate Ath- letic association colleges are not in accord with the policy of the officials of the association is evidenced by the letter from Auburn to Vanderbilt, generously waiving the decision of the association in the Sikes case and asking that he be reinstated. Another evidence of the feeling that the asso- citation officials are wrong in their action comes from Sewanee. Local alumni of the Tennessee college are backing mp their alma mater strongly in regard to the Joplin incident, in which the Sewanee manager has sig lt ;,,&- 70 kt.z suspension of the Crimson quarter, saying his team does not want to win from Alabama unless 1t can do so with the team at it's best.
 A letter which outlines the posi- ton of the Sewanee alumni is printed in another column of today's Age Herald. It is signed by Carl D. Co., ker. Alvin l.. Browne and George Watkins. c. w. G.
