Vera Cruz Nov. .23-Gen, Candida
Aguilar who succeeded Brig. General
Frederick sNunston today as military
governor of Vera Cruz, did not mincn
words when, through his chief of po-
lice, Theodore Freziercs. he told the
residents ,of this city that any dis
turbance OF the. peace. whether it be
picking pockets or any of the graver
crimes, such as sacking, would result
in the execution OF the offending indi-
viduals.
The proclamation containing this
declaration was circulated through
the streets as Gen. Aguilar's forces
were arriving. The decree provides
that all arms must be turned in to
the authorities within twenty-four
hours, and, that failure to comply with
this order, will cause. the shooting OF
the one in whose possession gun is
found.
This fiat statement caused w. w.
Canada, the American consul, to call
at the police station, where he told
Chief Frezieres that many Americans
had deposited their arms with him.
The consul was told that Gen. Aguilar
had no intention of demanding them.
and in fact expected the consul to use
his discretion in holding the arms OF
any Americans. Americans are not
exempt from the order. hut in cases

that their standing warrants it in this
connection they will bn given permits.
City Will Remain Dry.
Vera Cruz will go OH the list OF pro-

FOOTBALL MIGHT BETTER
BE CALLED BRAIN BALL"
Salient Points in Talk
on Football by Mayser

some interesting as well as
wildly emphatic points were
brought out on the subject Of
college football during an ad-
dress made by Charles ". May
ser, coach of Franklin and Mar
shall College. at a smoker given
by the Princeton Club. of this
city. last night. Among the most
striking assertions made by
Mayser, who is one Of the most
competent football authorities
in the country. are the following
plthy pointers.
The progress made by the
smaller colleges is not due so
much to the radical changes
made in the rules as to the fact
that the smaller teams are get
ting the advantage Of profes-
siona1 coaches.
One man should be given ebso-
Lutte authority. but he cannot get
along very well without capable
assistants. These assistants,
presumably graduate coaches,
should come to his aid after the
coach has sized up the ability
of the players and planned his
campaign. They should be will
Ing to abide by the judgment
and mandates of the head coach.
There are many men in the big
colleges who would make stars
at the gridiron game If they can
be found out and developed.
Football should be taught along
the Yale idea Of introducing
smokers during the winter, at
which the football candidates
can discuss the game.
Football is no longer merely
the tussle of huskies and a case
OF the survival of the fittest. It
is now played from the head
up" and might better be termed
brain ball"

from many additional cities in Georgia,
pledging their support to the movement
to establish the bank here.
All civic jealousies have been cast
aside in movement which will be Of
unquestfoned benefit to the whole sec
ton. In the course of a letter received
here today W. E. Dunwody, president
of the Macon Chamber of Commerce.
says:
There has been some question Of
envy on the part of Macon of Atlanta's
success. That idea, l can assure you.
is without foundation and we hope TO
be able. to convince you of the fact in
the future.
Macon wishes to cooperate In every
way possible with Atlanta. We believe
Macon can be of some assistance to At
lanta, and we know Atlanta can be of
great assistance to Macon"
Promises of active cooperation are
pouring in from the leading bankers
and from the boards of trade of prac-
tically every municipality large and
small in the whole state.
