HUNTSVILLE HIGH
LOSES TO MADISON


Gurley, October Especial 1.-The
Madison county high defeated the
Huntsville high in football Friday,
on the Huntsville field, by a score of
32 to 0.
The game was hard fought from
start to finish, but the Huntsville boys
never threatened to score, the locals
hitting their line frequently for good
gains, also working forward passes and
end runs successfully. The feature of
the game was the long runs made by
Reynolds the heavy fullbaclx for Mad
ison county high. Three forward
passes were intercepted by him for a
touchdown each time, running so yards
for one.
In the last minutes Of the game Rey-
nolds, Madison county's heavy FULL
back, and who had featured for Mad
ison county all through the game, was
ruled out, being accused by Hunts
ville's official Of kicking. Smith was
substituted from end to full and the
game proceeded without further delay
with Madison county always in the
lead. Lineup:

American Engineer Is
Attacked by Japanese Mob

Mukden, October ii e. Pepper, the
American chief engineer of the Mukden
electric light works, was recently at
tackled and severely beaten by mob of
japanese workmen in the employ of the
Japanese Telephone company. The COM
pany for which Mr.. Pepper works is a
Chinese organization. The chief engineer
protested when some Japanese workmen
interfered with Chinese workmen in his
employ, who were making repairs on
electric lines. The Japanese turned upon
Mr.. Pepper. One of them struck him
with a club. and he was thrown down
and painfully injured before the Amer
lean vice consul, M. G.. Faulkner was
able to rescue him from the mob.
The American consulate has brought
the assault to the attention of the Japa-
nese consul general in Mukdep. The
Chinese governor at Mukden called at
the American consulate and expressed
his regret that the assault should have
occurred upon Chinese soil.

for more than 70 yards
AGGIES FURNISHED SURPRISE
The really big surprise of the day was
the close call Mississippi A. and M. gave
Auburn. The Alabama Polytechnic team
has shown indications in its early coii-
tests of having developed heavy SCOT
ing machine. Fullback Schwill OF the
Mississippi team gave the Plainsmen
their greatest scare when in the secoliu
period he booted field goal and Tor
few minutes had his team in the lead
The old Auburn drive was Immediately
started, however, and Stickney soon
scored the winning touchdown
Sewanee's performance in beating
Louisiana State raised the stock OF tue
Tennessee Tigers to some extent lheir
performance against Kentucky State
week ago was disappointment to their
supporters and some apprehension was
felt regarding the contest at New of-
leans, Sellers recovery of forward
PASS which a Louisiana player inter-
cepted but juggled, however, was an
tnat saved Sewanee from another score
less tie.
Aside from the work of Young ana
Strurper In the contest mere, the W.
of Bell at right end for Tech, Larkin
at left end for Washington and Lee ana
of Right Tackle Carpenter of Tech was
marked Bells smothering of the CEN
erals play and his picking out OF mass
of Washington and Lee players, the 1or-
ward pass which resulted in the tielng
touchdown, indicated that the yellow
Jackets have found worthy successor
for Senter, whose place Bell took. Car
perter recovered several fumbles at
critical moments, while Larkin was
notably effective in stopping three at
tempts at end runs. Spence, on whom
the Yellow Jackets depend for 1leio
goals had not fully recovered from
blow IN the head received week ago.
Georgias performance against the navy
was unexpectedly weak. Coach Cunning
ham had several regulars out or the
lineup, and many believe took no
chances of injuries to men who might
prove valuable later in the southern
championship race

down in defeat in the last minutes of
play. Except for the miracle play by
Bully VandeGraaffe, that of intercepting
pass in a most unusual manner and
racing for touchdown, followed by
two field goals, the Crimson would have
been defeated. Harris Cope has. as in
former years, fighting bunch of boys
and win over them is always a hard
earned one.
The game will eliminate either Ala
bama or Sewanee from the race for the
title. Betting favors the Crimson; but
will they win. or will dope be upset?
1t frequently is.
All Tuscaloosa is coming up to wit
ness the struggle. The student body,
some 500 strong, together with scores
and scores of citizens, will compose
the caravan from the Druid City and
the university to witness Alabama
struggle with the fierce Tiger.
Numerous social events are being
planned for the entertainment of the
eleven. A script dance will be given
at the Tutwler that night in addition
to theatre parties, while if Alabama
wins-well there won't be nothin'-but
something raised.

yanderbilts victory over Virginia
81 to 6. a score larger than the most
sanguine of the Commodores' support
ers had hoped for, points strongly 10
the Nashville eleven as the possible
winner of the southern title. Alabama,
Tennessee and Sewanee, are unbeaten'
while Georgia Tech remained unde-
feated by tieing with Washington and
Lee from the Virginia-North Carolina
territory. Georgia, which also trounced
Virginia, has not yet lost to southern
eleven, but made rather weak snow
ing against Navy.
During the next four weeks the unde-
feated eleyens in this section will be en-
gagged for the most part in games among
themselves. The schedule is virtually dl-
vided into two sections with the Ala
bama-S ewanee game at Birmingham next
week and the Auburn Vanderbilt contest
in Birmingham, November is, as the con-
Meeting links. Vanderbilt, Tennessee ana
Sewanee comprise the northern group
with Georgia, Auburn, Alabama ana
Georgia Tech in the southern section.
PLAYERS IN SHAPE
The good condition of players was
shown yesterday by the comparatively
small number of substitutions and the
total absence of reports of serious IN
jury. In the six leading contests in this
section an average of slightly more than
five substitutions were made by each
eleven.
The stellar individual performances of
the day were credited to Curry. Floyd
and Cody of Vanderbilt; Green of Ala
bama, A. Hatcher of Tennessee, Strup-
per of Georgia Tech, and Young of
Washington and Lee. Curry's brilliant
runs, coupled with several long runs by
Floyd and Cody's two field goals con-
tributed largely to Vanderbilt's decisive
victory over Virginia, while Green won
much of the credit for Alabama's q to-
score against Mississippi, the little
quarter Keeling off frequent lengthy
dashes.
Hatcher's punting in the Tennessee
Florida battle probably was the most
notable performance of it's kind in the
south, his kicks, which the Florida de-
fensive backs could not handle fire.

ments. Saturday Green, after the first
