AUBURN WORKING HARD FOR COMING GAME WITH TECH
AUBURN PREPARING FOR GEORGIA TECH Plainsmen Will Attempt to Stage Come Back Follow

Auburn, November T.-(Special. )-After| the blow-up by the Auburn substituteI backfield men against the Commodores
 at Redwood park last Saturday. the Aul burn team is busy preparing a comet back for the Yellow Jackets on Thanks giving day. AS the showing of the Yel- low Jackets was somewhat of disapI pointment in the Georgia contest, they toe will be busy staging a comeback.
 The vandy game was a big disapl ointment to Auburns supporters. Ind weakness of the team all year has beerI In the lack of substitutes of any trainl Ing and experience. The first Iine-ur| could have developed into as good a teanI as Auburn ever had. In spite of heavy losses the line from end to end showed that 1t was thoroughly capable of taking
 care of the speedy Vanderbilt backs.
 The linemen were weak in getting dowrI under punts, appearing unsure of theid footing, and were easily blocked oJ
 dodged. This was to have been expected of an Auburn team on such a field. though as the soil at Auburn is of such a na ture that the ground never gets soft
 It was the substitute backs, however, that spilled the beans" With BidezI Caughman and Hairston out of the back field, there were too many places filled by new and untried players, with no ex perience in college or prep school foot ] ball. They were nervous and unsteady failing to cover on forward passes and

 Because of the numerous injuries Aul burn showed a ragged looking Auburn machine for November. Vanderbilt, how ever. after her poor showing against yir ! ginia, came, back and played at the tor of her game. The Commodores deserve
 a lot of credit for their comeback They| were as smooth a machine as the Com

Play Too Exciting

New York.--Sherlock Holmes and his exciting adventures as displayed by William Gillette in the play of the same name at the Empire theatre proved too much for U. Kinderland, IS, Cuban youth who lives at the Ho- tel Ansonia. At the end of the third act the boy toppled in his seat with an attack of apoplexw and had to be car ried to the lobby, where he was re vived. Later he was removed to the hotel.
 It was just at the most exciting mo- ment of the play when the incident occurred. Shelock Holmes sticks his cigar in corner of tho gas cellar and eludes his captors by causing them to watch the cigar while he escapes through door at the other side.
 Kinderland had been observed watch ing the play with intense excitement and when the climax came and the de- tective knocked over lamp, preclpi- tating utter darkness, he succumbed.

That variety is the spice Of golf was
shown yesterday in the course Of the
thirty-six hole semi-hnal matches Of

Princeton hockey player, and Francis
R. Blossom, who has a baseball rec

day at thirty-slx noies.
All kinds OF shots were seen while
Peacock was defeating John Marshall,

and Blossom was brushing aside Louis
L. Bredin, Of Yale, by and mar

that the survivor Of the Peacoek-Msr-

chance of winning the title. so that
chief interest centred in this match.
