STOCK MARKET IS
A DISAPPOINTMENT
To WALL STREET
THAT rs NOT TO SAY. HOWEVER
THAT EXPERIMENT HAS
%
FAILED.

New York, Dec 2s.--The SUMS
weekly review of the financial situa-
.ion tomorrow will say:
To wall street the stock market
has been a disappointment since the
restoration OF the full list TO open
trading This. however is very
different thing from saving that the
experiment Of Stock Exchange re-
sumption has failed. Not only is there
no warrant for regarding the expert
ment as a failure. but 1t has been, on
he contrary. satisfactory In many i'm
portant particulars. 1t has disclosed
financial stability and the chronicle
Of the market in the past fortnight
points to the preha that the re-
opened Stock Exchange will stay open
TO permit the continuing adjustment
of values to developments affecting
them.
Liquidation and decline there have
been since the FIRST excited advance
gh,ch followed the restoration OF the
omen share market hut what has hap
nenet comes down simply TO this
That the acreage is Just about
where IL was when the Stock Exchange
suspension ended. 1t must be re-"
menhered that the open market was
restored after good rise had taken
place from the low figures made In
the irregular outside dealings In Sep
TENDER and October. Again the stock
market reflects the depressed business
situation The tops and bottoms OF
movements in securities coincide much
more closely with the booms and de-
pressions OF trade and industry than
is conn monty understood.

Everything is in readiness for Saturday 8 game. Both Auburn and Mississippi Agri- cultural and Mechanical, after a week s strenuous workout, are resting on their arms awaiting the call to battle. Every indication points to one of the hardest fought exhibitions that has ever been staged on a local gridiron. With practi cally even weight Auburn and Mississippi will enterthe contest both determined and
 confident. Auburn has shade in the
 dope, but all hands are expecting bat
 tie royal.
 Preparations for the handling of the
 crowds have been completed. Space has
 been allotted the 400 Mississippi Agricul.
 tural and Mechanical students who are expected to be on hand for the exhibition
 According to announcements made last night the coming of the Mississippi stu dents is not yet assured, but it is thought at least 200 will be on hand. Definite in' formation is expected today.
 A remarkable thing about the battle i. that neither side is sending in tales oi | misery and injuries prior to the game Neither Chadwick nor Donahue are ar ranging alibis Both chieftains appea l willing to let the result tell. Birmingham awaits the finish.

Tennessee Protests Against Joplin
Sidelights from the Sideline

the $. I. A. A. have thus far stood togeth- CT in avoiding these rulings so absurd that they have forced their own vio- Iation. is all that has kept heretofore the knowledge of such violation from the general public. So far as the s. I. A A. itself is concerned it is as help less to deteet> this wholesale disregard of it's foolhardy regulations as Ii is to cope intelligently with southern col legiate athletics under it's present sys- tom. It must depend upon petty and unspcrtsmanlike rivalry between the athletes to expose conditions. Of it's own accord this association would not be able to stir one finger toward rul- | ing out athletes who have scoffed Ut it's vainglorious absurdities for years.
 
 Truly the situation Is ridiculous. That an association of the age and prestige of the s. l. A. A. should crift upon the very verge of disintesration because with a -honored aohor renee for progressivism, it refuses 10 advance to meet the times in which II moves is something difficult for the sporting public of the south To uhocr- stand. pr.

 The Age Herald Is not defending Jop- | lin. if 1t be true that he played pro- | fessjonal ball. Such a practice would soon undermine the very spirit Of ann ateur athletics. But we do believe that Joplin. If he is guilty Of the charge preferred, was forced to t.ike such ac- ton as the safest way by which he could play summer ball at all. Joplin may be wrong, but the s. l. A. A. IS hone the less right for his being wrong. Vanderbilt Is suf- lfering the loss of her captain on account of a technicality so finite in scope that it would find ere dence nowhere save in the sanctums of the s. l. A 4. Alabama probably will
 suffer equally if more charges are pre-
 ferred. The time Is ripe for someone
 to take the lead in injecting new life into the S. I. A. A. or to form an assoc
 iatjcn whose system will be in con
 formity with justice and modern con. ditions. Let Alabama and Vanderbilt | lead the way. .. W. u.

TENNESSEE PROTESTS
 AGAINST JOPLIN OF
 ALABAMA ELEVEN
Charge That Alabama Star Quarterback Played Professional Baseball Last Summer-Rggs Puts Case Up to President
 Denny--May Protest Against Other Alabama Players .

Knoxville. Tenn. october 2s.-(Spc- l.)-Dr. Il. E. Buchanan, chairman of the athletic council of the univer- sity of Tennessee. this afternoon filed protest against the playing of Guar terback Joplin of the University of Alabama football team in the Tonnes sec Alabama game, to be staged here Saturday afternoon upon the grounds that the Alabama star played profos- sional ball last summer. The protest was wired to President W. NJ. Riggs of the S. I. A. A. and President Denny of Alabama. Tonight Dr. Buchanan re- ceived from President Riggs a tele- gram instruoting him to send all avail. able information to President Denny
 For some days 1t has been rumorec hero that Joplin played professional ball last summer and an investiga tor was started by representatives of Ten nessee with the result that the protest was filed this afternoon. It is alleged

GRAVES MACHINE LEAVES FOR CLASH
 WITH TENNESSEE
Victory Over Georgia Tech Has Salutary Effect-The Crimson Confident of
 Victory

University, October 22.-(special.) )--Con- fident of victory and filled with enthusI. asm. the Crimson squad left here this aft ernoon for Knoxville, where they win play the University of Tennesse eleven Saturday afternoon at clock. The stu dent body gave the team great send-ofl and the greatest confidence prevails in the prowess of the Graves machine.
 The victory over Georgia Teach last Saturday has had salutary effect upon the team as whole. There has been de- veloped spirit such as never before wal evidenced The entire squad leaves fol Saturdays argument confident of win ming.
 Conflicting reports are received here a' to whether or not Red" Rainey, star halfback for Tennessee. will be in the game, but the locals are expecting him to be among those present when tho teans face each other on the gridiron, and still are confident of victory.
 Alabama won from Tennessee last yeai by rather a small margin. The team now is composed of experienced mon for the most part and the odds favor the Crimson and White on Saturdays game.

Auburn. October 2.--(Special. )-The first cruelling contest of the season for Auburn will come next Saturday when Auburn journeys to Birmingham to meet Mississippi A. and M. The Az gies returned practically every letter man of last season and have very experienced team. They depend on this game to establish their rating in s. T. A. A. circles and are sure to put |up the stlffest kind of fight. Au- burn on the other hand cannot take the game very seriously but must &C., ccpt 1t only as an october game, as the big teams on her schedule are still ahead
 The Auburn team will enter the game determined to win and if possible to keep Mississippi from scoring. The de fensive powers of the team have never been put to a thorough test and this game will furnish the first good oppor- tunity of getting line on the real strength of the Auburn defense, which is usually almost impregnable.
 Also the team will probably have the services of Ted Arnold, brilliant half back, who has been out of the game since his injury in the Florida game, and this should greatly strengthen the offensive department of the teams play.
 However, Pitts has not been able to get into scrimmage since the Clemson game, in which he suffered several bruises With the exception of one or two other minor ailings the team is lin good shape and will at least be pro- pared to give good account of itself.
 Monday light practice was the order of the day, the afternoon being devoted Ito the running of signals and the prac- ticing of several difficult formations which may have to be called into. play to bring victory. However, if the team lean get away with only straight root ball that will be the style of play, as ICoach Donahue Is not anxious to let lvanderbilt or Georgia get on to any of the pet plays that he is trying to save for their benefit.
 Tuesday stiff scrimmage was held and the plays that had been given out the day before were given tryout against the "outlaws."
 Taylor's now place in the line seems
 to be his home" as he played the since he has been placed at guard. In the game against Clemson he was abie to break through the line at will and blocked . punt which he then fell on for a touchdown. On all other punt forma tions he hurried up the kicks and this Is almost as good as a block Should he keep up this good work ne will worry all the punters of opposlns lteams and will receive considerable notice when the time for picking nll' southern men comes. Thigpen at th' other guard has made all-southern fol two years and Taylor's good work would indicate that Auburn will agair

/" ". JOPLIN. Alabamas star
 quarterback, may not appear 0A against Tennessee Saturday. A protest against his appearing in an Alabama uniform has been made by University of Tennessee authorities. It is alleged that Joplin played profes- sional baseball last summer and al- rcady affidavits supporting the Ten messed contention have been forward ed to President Riggs of the S I. A. A The case. according to Knoxville re- ports, has been put up to President Denny of Alabama pending final ac- tion. It is charged that Joplin played in the Appalachian league for a time last summer and that later he played in the Empire State league and under an assumed name. If these charges are true, Joplin. under the regulations of the s. I. A. A.. Is ineligible for ath- letics in that association and Alabama will lose one of the best ouarterbacks since the days of Chick Hannon, while the erstwhile glowing prospects of the Crimson will be smashed into atoms.
 But will agitation stop there? l. is rumored protests will be made against other Alabama players. Just what IS the nature of these charges Is unknown but in case they are brought forward interesting developments are prom ised. Already Annie Sikes captain of Vanderbilt. is on the ineligible list be- cause of summer baseball playing and If S. I. A A. colleges initiate the prac- tice of exposing violations of the as- sociation's absurd rules and regulations moro than one Dixie eleven will be ma terially crippled.
 The college athlete alone holds the key which will expose Just how. far these regulations have been avoided Petty rivalry among them alone will bring to light the corrupt conditions which already have undermined the B. l. A A and which have changed it from an association for the betterment and improvement of collegiate athletics to a disjointed organization of dlscon- tented colleges whose very existence Is supported by threads. If these cnl- lege athletes see fit to bring these conditions to light the staid old south may we'll be prepared to meet shock. There will come to light story of endless corruption, of wholesale vio- lation of rules and regulations. but withal story of unpardonable rulings and impracticable restraint
