CARRANZA FORCES FALL
BACK FROM MEyICO CITY

PuEBLA, MENICO, June IS (by mail
to New Orleans, July 4.-After more
than ten days lighting in an effort to
reoccupy Mexico City, Carranza troops
under General Pablo Gonzales are re-
treating, and reports are current that
Carranzas hope to regain tho capital
mas been checked for at least another
month, if he takes the city at all
The failure of Gonzales TO occupy
the city has had Disappointing effect
on the revolutionary leaders scattered
from Puehla to Carranza's headouar-
tiers at Vera Cruz. That Zapata and
the convention government in control
In Mexico City were about to nut up
ap effective resistance and even TO take
the offensive was surprise to Car
rama adherents. Ever since President
wilson's warning to the Mexican chiefs
II has been the belief that Carranza
stakcd his hope for recognition by
the United States on his ability again
10 assume control in the capital His
troops left Vera Cruz and Puebla in a
jubilant spirit, and with the expecta-
| ton that the expedition would he in
tho nature of a holiday.
Defeat met Gonzales's every attemnt
to enter the city. He was driven out
of Mexico. His success in penetrating
into one of the suburbs and liheratine
500 prisoners in Taouba Jail resulted
only in a slaughter of his men. and
finally, wounded, torn and hungry, the
entire Carranza force fell back
PEOPLE OPPOSED
TO CARRANZA's RETURN
Gonzales has been advised that the
people of Mexico City, soldiers and
civilians, are opposed to the return OF
Carranza; that the merchants fear loot
ing should Carranzas troops enter, and
| that thousands OF people who surge
the streets in hunger riots would be
moved to greater violence should more
! troops without food supplies be thrown
, into city which is already on a
famine basis.
Telegraphic communica ION between
Puebla and Mexico City has been in
terrupted for more than week, but
! messages brought by couriers declare
the people in the capital have been in
state of panic; that the mobs demand :
ing food have increased daily; that
hundreds are dying directly or Indirect
~ from starvation; that merchants,
fearing footing. have harricaded their
shops, and that the diplomatic corps
has been meeting daily 10 devise means
for the protection Of foreign lives and
property. The fact that the conVcn-
tion government has removed It's
archives and treasury funds to Cuerna
vaca, and that trains are kept in readi-
ness to remove the government officials

| has added to the tension.

PROMISE OF A
 BIG GAME SEASON
Early Evidence Points to An Abun-
 dance of Good Shooting

Enter the shooting season. Already the pilgrimage of Nimrod's hosts has be- gun. Timetables are in demand. Gun cases and hunters kits are much in evil dence in and about the railroad depots. Tales of the woods. the fields and the meadows are percolating through the at mosphere.
 The big game hunter has shouldered his trusty rifle, packed his kit and is on the trail of his quarry with visions of wondrous trophies fitting before his eyes. While near at home thousands or ln- veterate shooters are fondling their fa- vored shotguns and eagerly waiting the test of their markmanship on numbers of smaller game.
 'Brer'' Rabbit is frisking about in the meadows and scrubwood. The whir of quail sounds welcome note in the brush. Thin lines of wild ducks wend their orG- erly flight toward the marshes and bays. and every sign points to a season worth while.
 And there is every reason to believe that this will be the best season ever. Thanks to the efforts of the advocates of game conservation and propagation nature has been given a chance to partial ly replenish her reserve.
 The Weeks-McLean bill has also been a factor. Due to its influence and a tendency of good sportsmansalp on the part of many hunters to forego spring shooting. all kinds of game have been multiplying rapidly.
 One of the best evidences of this Is shown by the increased number of ducks that have appeared on the scene. Ill fact. the bays and marshes in some sections are literally black with them. During the last few weeks the writer has seen innumerable flocks of these timid game birds fitting across the sky.
 From some of the states where the deer

GEORGIA EASILY
 DEFEATS FLORIDA

Jacksonville. Fla, November 6.--Geor- gia easily defeated Florida at football here today, 37 to 0. The Crackers after the first period used a series of for ward passes which seemed to have the Aligators bewildered. During the first period, in which neither side scored. Florida carried the ball to Georgia s 15-yard line. forward pass failed and the Cracker goal never was endangered thereafter.
 In the second period Mcconnell re- covered tumble and raced 40 yards for the first touchdown. Georgia scored four more touchdowns. all of which were directly due to forward passes. In the final period, which was cut to eight minutes because of darkness. Georgia scored safety when a Florida player was tackled behind his own goal line while trying trick play Coleman soon afterwart dropped field goal from the 40-yard line for the final score of the day.

The Generals outclassed their opponents in every department of the game and not once was their goal line in danger The White and Blue line was impreg- nable and only allowed the visitors two first downs.
 In the first quarter of the game straight football was the main resort, while open play and the overhead game was the main feature in the lat ter periods.

der. Curry hurt his back. and Reyer in- jured a 'leg. But despite their injuries, l think Vanderbilt will be in just as good shape when she faces Auburn as she was when she lined up against Virginia to- day"
 The ease with which virgipias backs ran through the Vandy defense would serve to indicate that the Commodores are not as strong as reported. The eleven is not heavy and none of the backs ex- cept Curry could gain against Virginia. At end, the Commodores are not strong. zerfoss as a punter had all except two punts blocked. The Commo1ores must improve vastly if they expectN to over whelm Auburn.
 Josh Cody is the star of the line and proved today that he was a dangerous drop kicker. Vanderbilt was badly out battled by the University of Virginia eleven.

By RUBEN A. LEWIS

Charlottesville, November 6.-(Special) Before the conflict with Virginia was at an end, Vanderbilt started preparing for Auburn. In the third quarter Curry, the Commodore star, was withdrawn from the battle that he might be in condition to op- pose Auburn. As the result of the fight, Vanderbilt is crippled. The post game statements of, the Commodore coaches were given principally to stating that Vanderbilt would be ready for the Plains men.
 Coach McGugin asserted: Despite the fact that many of our players were bruised up in today's contest, we will try to get them in shape for Auburn next Saturday" Assistant Coach Lanier stated in enumerating the events of the game: Captain Cohen has a bad shoul-

 three quarters. while Alabama's came in
 the final quarter In this last chapter
 Tech's overearnest play cost them at
 least two more touchdowns, as they
 marched through Alabama's defense twice
 only to be penalized within sight of the
 goal line.
 Tech scored her three touchdowns on straight football, alternating a drive
 through the center of the line with a
 smash on a split buck off either tackle
 and sweeping end run behind wonder
 full interference, which the Crimson could
 not stop.
 Alabamas s lone score was the spectacu-
 lar feature of the entire game the one
 outstanding feature of the entire battle
 which Atlanta fans are still talking about,
 the greatest forward pass ever seen on
 a local field.
 Standing as if to kick, Bully Vande-
 Graaff ran towards his own goal on re- ceivinS the ball, then turning quickly hurled it high over the heads ofNthe Tech defense, 50 yards down the field until it settled in the outstretched arms of Lovick Stevenson, the Birmingham boy and former Tech player, who speeded the remaining 20 yards for touchdown, VandeGraaff was in his own territory when he shot the ball. It travelled at
 least 30 yards before Stevenson made the catch going at express speed with the nearest jacket running yards behind him. VandeGraaff kicked an easy goal. Two end runs behind a wall of seven
 center fielders, pulled from the famous Minnesota shift formation, resulted in the first two touchdowns for Tech. The third came as the result of the same tactics but when within six yards of the
 goal, Fullback Spense smashed it over In two plays.
 Spence Misses Field Goals Spence tried several field goals during the game, but every one of them went wide, despite the fact that his forwards held the Alabama team in check until he could get them away.
 Bully VandeGraaff playing his last game against Tech, played his heart out. He fought as never football player has | fought on a local field. He was in every l play on the defense, several times break
