AUBURN IS GETTING
 READY FOR MANDY
By MIKE pONAIitE Coach of Alabama Polytechnic Institute

1t To go The desire of the Auburn team was 10 obtain victory with min imum of effort. os the kicking game was matched against Techs rushing game in the first quarter. They head ed off the Jackets where they were dangerous and when the opportunity came cut loose their attack so that scores resulted. If it was necessary for the Auburn team to carry the ball the length of tho field in order to win the game they would have done it. or if il was necessary to have doubled the score they would have done that also. The Auburn players were ress eXhaust ed after the Tech game than any k.sme this year. They followed the ball well. used the kicking game to good advantage and used very few plays. \ mistake in judgment that cost touchdown was made in the third quarter when the team was kept against the side lines instead of carry ing the ball out of bounds. Fourteen points was. however. as good as 20 so far as victory was concerned. The team played sound football. Techs of fensive Is better than last year. but the defense Is about the same.

With swift, hard charging backfield two ends who are towers of strength and the winning spirit, the team ex- poets to bring home the bacon. The student body already is preparing the material for huge bonfires on owen ton hill-and the faculty, in an in- stance such as this. is extremely len lent.
 Towards Great Backfield
 The backfield of the Howard team has made a great reputation. Hayes and Acton being strong on defensive Is well as offensive work. Roach and Price both are excellent at fullback. Blackwelder is a star at half and will make matters somewhat warm for the opposing clan when he gets into ac- ton. Robinson at quarter is a snappy, quick thinking football machine and Is supported gloriously by his teammates.

 HowarNL or Shaw. left end Adams or Strickland. left tackle; Dow ney or Taylor, left guard Rich, center Ford. right guard; Garner tcaptain) right tackle Weaver. right end; Rob- inson, quarter; Hayes or Acton Jeff half; Roach or Price, fullback; Black welder or Duke, right half.

The squad has made a good record thus far and Coach Nooiin expects the boys to give the Methodists just lit tie more than they are looking for tomorrow afternoon.
 From the Methodist camp comes a wondrous story Birmingham college this year has produced a team the like of which never was seen in the Magic City; a team, in fact, which would be a credit to any school in the state. Capps. captain. is the one best bet Of the Methodists If he is in good phys ical condition. then the entire team will respond to his joyous, vibrant vitality and will be in splendid con dition for the game. And the word has gone forth that Capps is in bet ter condition than he ever was.
 Line Is Confident Coach Pinson during the early days of the week was somewhat dissatis- fled with the line.

A Thorough Understanding

There is a thorough understanding among all officers of the Federal league, and there is no fear on the part of any official that one or more of the others are going to consummate deal that will protect their own interests irrespective of what happens to the others. Such re- ports do an injustice to such men as Messrs. Ward, Weeghman, Walker, Stifel and Ball.
 T wish to state in a most emphatic manner that the Federal league was or ganized on major league basis and will continue as such There will De no deal made with organized baseball which calls for the elimination of the Federal league. Our organization might consent to the transferring of one two franchises, but the Federal league in name and standing must continue"
 Earlier in the day Gilmore expressed the opinion that peace was near, and that negotiations might be concluded at con- ference tomorrow in Chicago between
 President Garry Hermann of the national
 commission, President Ban Johnson of the American league and President
 Weeghman of the Chicago Federal
 League club.
 Gilmore declared that if the plan under consideration went through, control of
 the Chicago National league club would be acquired by Charles H. Weeghman and his business associates. Among other statements made by Gil- more were: That no city would have more than two clubs next season under the reorganization.
 That there would be no International league teams in Baltimore, Buffalo or Pittsburg.
 That the American association and the International league will be given a high CT classification under the new plan.

protection and he is almost certain to break away for long gains.
 With a weak backfeld McGugin does not hope to make any impression on the strong Auburn line, but will rely en- tirely upon the open game. Feeling that Vanderbilt has more than an even chance against Sewanee, McGugin will uncover everything in his trick book against the Donahue clan, regardless of how many Tiger spies may be in the stands. For that reason the practice this week has been entihely behind closed gates and many new forward pass formations have been developed as well as several new shifts.

LEAGUE ID .BE A MAJOR BODY IN NAME AND STANDING
 -J. A. GILMORE President of the Feds Still Hopes to Make Peace With Organized Ball
 Magnates

Chicago, November 1.-The Federal league was organized on a major league basis and will continue as such under it's own name. no matter what peace deal may be made with organized baseball, ac- cording to statement tonight by James A. Gilmore, president of the Federal league, who declared all the owners of the league still stood together for a fair settlement. Gilmore declared no member of the organization intended selling out to the detrfment of the Federals. The statement said:
 "The Federal league stands ready to do anything that will promote the inter est of baseball in general They realize that warfare, such as has existed during the last year, is detrimental to the game; and for that reason, more than for any other, they are willing to make set clement on any honorable basis. If such a settlement is not consummated before the 1915 season it will not be the fault of Federal league officials.
 We admit that in order to bring such a condition about it would be necessary to transfer certain franchises, and com mittee of Federal league officials is willing to meet a committee from or ganized baseball and endeavor to solve the problem.

COTTON FAILS TO
HOLD EARLY RALLY
Census Bureau Report Showing
Increase in Linters In
duces Realizing.
CABLES ARE FAVORABLE
Private Ginning Estimate Of
13. 100, 900 Bales to
January 16.
CABLES ARE FAVORABLE

In response to favorable cables cotton
values advanced about 10 points within
a short time of the opening yesterday. but
later there was n recession from that
level on selling prompted by the Census
Bureau report showing an unexpectedly
large amount of linters obtained from
the crop prior to January l. This state
ment had n somewhat chilling effect on
bullish sentiment, az II foreshadows a
larger production of linters than last
year, and hence a bigger commercial crop
than many thought would be harvested.
Prior to January / this year the crop
has yielded 396.984 bales Of linters. COM
pared with 352.972 bales up to the same
date a year ago. Total amount Of linters
obtained from last years crop was 6o2.-
900 bales. which figure might easily be
exceeded by this years production.
Trading after the first hour dwindled
to small proportions. and fluctuations be-
came narrow The declining tendency OF
the market was checked. however. by the
reported National Ginners' estimate plac-
ing the amount of cotton ginned to jan
uary Is at 13,490,000 bales. As this in
dictated n ginning for the period of 49,
900 bales. against ISL, 900 for the same
period last year II WIS accepted by many
as pointing to n bullish showing by the
next Census Bureau ginning report.
Spot houses were prominent buyers In
the early trading. "a were many of the
shorts. When this buying subsidized the
market turned relatively heavy under
moderate realizing by Wall street inter-
ests and some selling for short account
by traders playing for reaction. At
the close the market was steady. with the
