 Coach aDONAHIE

Auburn is no exception to the general rule that all southern football teams have followed this year in starting practice somewhat earlier than usual Since tho opening of college light work only has been indulged in. the hot weather making any strenuous work a dubious proposl- tion. As all those expected are in it is possible to obtain a fairly good line on just what Auburn can depend on this year to uphold her football supremacy.
 Jack Winne sends definite word that he will not return. so the veteran left in the line is Baby Taylor. He is as big and husky as ever. and ought to play the best game of his career. He will be such factor in Auburn's defense He will weigh 195 pounds in condition. For center the leading candidate Is Gary Roh- inson. who weighs only 162, but Is aggres- sive and full of fight. It is to be hoped that a good sized squad can be found to go on the other side of him and keep the center of the line from being too light. For this position the most prom isng candidates are Frcke, Beard, Camp bell and Shotts. These are all of good weight but lack experience in college ball
 For left tackle Sample Is the best man in sight He weighs 174 and Is a very aggressive player. He also has played enough so that he cannot be classed as a green player. The other tackle lies be- tween Davis and Goodwin. Goodwin is rat from Albertville and Is fast and acts as though he might be able to as- simulate college football Steed will look after one end and will do it well. He was shifted there from tackle a few times last year and his taking the spec tacular long forward pass from Arnold in the Mississippi game last year will long be remembered. For the other end

MATERIAL AT HAND
 LOOKS GOOD ID THE | GEORGIA CAP TAIN
Paddock and Hitchcock Will Be MiSSed-MOst Attetn- tiOn to Be Directed
 to the Backfield
By JOHN G. HENDERSON

Captain, Football. University of Geor-
 gia, 1915
 Football prospects at Georgia are fairly bright for a good team. Eight of the 1914 letter men are back and with sev- eral new men who look mighty good at present Georgia should be we'll represent ed this fall. Every man knows he must hustle to hold down his job.
 As things look now there will be room for improvement in several places or the team. but with hard work these places will no doubt be well taken care of Coach Cunningham realizes that Geor: gia has a hard schedule and must de, vclop early to be in condition for the hard games which come early in Oc, tober played in Athens.
 Most of the line men are back in har- ness and with the experience gained ir 1914 should give a good account of them selves before the year is over. The back field is where the most attention will be directed.
 The old men who will be missed very much are Captain Paddock, although we will have him as coach. where ht should be of great assistance in turning out good backfeld; Hitchcock, who played every position on the team except quarter last year His backing up of our line will be sadly missed. His equal will hardly be found in the south at back. ing up. It has been reported here al training camp that Garrard, line man of last year. has been advised by his physician not to play. but we are all hoping that he will soon be with us Peacock, a half-back, will be missed fol lis forward passing. where he was very valuable.
 Those who are back of the letter. now are: Henderson, center; Germany ant Conyers, guards; Mcconnell and Thrash tackles; Thompson, end; Pewee and Cole man, halfbacks. The 1914 substitutes: Dor sey Payne Knox, Tate, Neville. Win gate and Hutchinson.
 The new men who are showing up well are Culbreach of Tampa High school, 19t pounds, lineman; Davis, Crambord. Beas. ley. Reynolds and Dazendorf, all back field material. Some of these will prob ably fill the backfield positions left va cant. With the long, hard season ahead we will need all of the men to fill ir and with other new men to come all will no doubt have plenty of opportunity td show their ability.
 Taking all into consideration prospects are little brighter this year, but there is plenty of hard work to be done. The Red and Black eleven. however, will moi be found wanting when the big games roll around.

HARSH HOPES FOR MUCH FROM HIS NEW MATERIAL FOR THE THIN RED LINE
Sixo Last Years Regulars Out But New Men Are Heavier and Better Able to Stand Hard Con- ditioning Coach Kelly Expected to
 Work Wonders
By BILL HARSH Captain, Football, University of Alabama, 1915

| Johnston, a quarterback, means hard work for Coach Kelly in finding worthy successors to these men. However. with the cream of Alabama's freshman team and several men who have just entered school to pick from, the Job won't be so hard as at first glance it would seem.
 Of last years regulars, Vandegran, Morton, Bill Harsh. Griff Harsh, Burks. Love and Barnett, have already re- turned. With the addition of Sanford and Rogers, two of the heaviest tackles that have been seen on the Alaban . field in many years; Maynor Saul. "Bi $ Daniel' Boone and Whittelsey. the holes in the Crimson and White line ought to be satisfactorily plugged. Be- sides these there are several other linesmen who are showing up remark . ably we'll Weir and Grisham of last years second string men, Brannon, Devere and Conner of the freshman team; Little DanieP' Boone. and other new men seem to be all that could be needed from which to complete Ala bama's backfeld.
 With this promising array of mate rial and man like Coach Kelly at the head Alabama ought to finish well up in the running.

VANDERBILT LOOKS FOR WINNER AFT TER Z DISASTROUS YEARS
Russell Cohen Has Wealth of Material From Which to Draw-Last Years
 Stars Returning
Fly RUSSELL COHEN Captain, Football, Vanderbilt Univer-
 aftv. 1A1E


 The prospect for. a winner at vande- bilt Is indeed bright this year. after having had two more or less disas- trous years. The team of 1915 will be composed mostly of veterans who have seen from three to four years of serv- ice.
 At center there will be Pud Reyer, a man who has played three years. Reyer weighs 215 and Is six feet three. Until last year he did not have fair chance to make the team, because of such stars as Buddy Morgan and Huffman. The tackles will be more than likely composed of Josh Cody and Tom Lips comb. Cody was considered the best drop kicker and place kicker in the south last year. He has played one year on the first team. and one on the scrubs; he has also played for two years on the Bethel school eleven, and hence is playing his last year Cody weighs some 225 pounds Lipscomb has not had quite as much experience as Cody; he has played one year with the scrubs and one year with the varsi- ty. The old men back at the guards are: Putnam, light but very aggres- sive man; Charley Brown. a man who has given three years of service on the varsity; Phillips who was first reserve guard of last year.
 The old ends back will be "Yunk'' Chester, one of the most consistent ends that the south has ever seen, also a punter of some repute. Glenn Reams, another man who has played for three years on the varsity eleven. Kent Morrison, brother-of the most ia nous Ray, has given valuable service at both end and at halfback. Of last years freshman ends there will be returning Ali Adams, a heavy and fast man who will most certainly make the veterans hustle. Richardson, from Green school. who have some valuable service in the games in which he played in last year. will be available this year; last year he could play in only the games that were not played under the S. I. A. A. rules
 Rabbit" Curry. the peer of any oth. CT back in the south last year, will return and he expects to have even a better season than he did last year. He will either be used at halfback or quar- lter. Bob" Turner who holds the S. IT. A. A. record on the quarter. and who has been playing for the last two years, will be back and fight 1t out with the newcomers. Sikes has played his four years and. of course, will be missed. as he was the best defensive man in the south. Northcut. the mid get quarter back of last year. will also return.
 The most promising of the new men are: Tom ZeerfoA from Kentucky state He played both at end ana in the back l field, and was reputed as being one of lthe best receivers of the forward pass | in the south. Lowry of " M l., who ! was considered one of the best quarter

TECH FORTUNATE IN KEEPING MAJORITY ! 0F VARSITY SQUAD Fifteen of P Letter Men to Return-Puas Will Re-
 lieve Morrison as
 Punter
By n. E. MORRISON

Captain, Football, Georgia Tech, 1915
 Georgia Tech" should have one of the strongest teams of her history this fall. For the first time since 1905 a majority of last seasons varsity men will return Out of the p letter men we, will get back about 15 When the whistle blows there will be on hand to line up: Fielder, ex- captain. half; Hohnson. full; Sinter and : Goree, ends; Mack Carpenter and Alex ander tackles; Long and probably Sneed guards. and myself. quarterback. One Ealf, one guard and the center are the ones missing from the regular team o1 last year. The ones missing from the old squad are Pattin, half; McCord, cen ter; Sneed, guard; Churchill, guard; Cush- man, Clay, Rountree and Hayes of the ba ckfield.
 To fill the places of these men Tech is depending on Spence, Shipper and Glover, to fill the backfield job; Barnwell Phillips and Bryant, the center position; ] Ware, West and Bell, the guards place All of these men subbed on the varsity last season or played on the scrub team The team will also have the help oi Jim Puas who was ineligible last year but was reinstated by the s. I. A. A last December. Puas will be valuable addition to the team as he can play either DdChhCAN Oht AAA eAAo Aittcs o'AA AS et ~sc' punter and place kicker. He will prob ably make a place this year and punt for the team, relieving your humble ser want, who was forced to do the bunting last season for want of a better kicker
 Besides these men Tech" will have the services of Fitzgerald, Myers, Teague Beard, Farrar and Rogers from last sea- sons reserve team. Several good look ing new men have signified their inten- tion of entering Tech this fall but nc dependence can be placed on them until they have gone through Coach Heisman's scrimmage for this will show their stick ing ability to play football
 We started the training season the first of September with 15 men on hand. We have gradually increased day by day un- til now we have about 25 out each after noon. We expect to have enough men in condition to scrimmage next week ''Tech'' will carry the coaches through the entire season this year; Heisman head coach, with Alexander and Clay as assistants. M t
 In regard to the teams we play this t fall we will play the hardest schedule this fall that any Tech team has ever played only one light or practice game will be played and that is with Mercer The rest of the teams we meet are Tran. syivania, Davidson, l.. s.

ever, the Spaniards used rubber to wa
