game-the climax and conclusion of the season. With Cope and Henry D. Phit- lips working on the line and Best de- voting his entire time to the backfield, decided results have been accomplished. The team which will go. down to face Vanderbilt Thursday is hot the same team which went down in the: dust be- fore the strong Kentuckaips on last Saturday, although the lineup will be practically the same There will prob ably be a short scrimmage Monday and then rest until Thursday, with tue ex- ception of short signal practices, for Coach Best is determined that his team shall not go into the game stale.
 Hammond, with his brilliant bunting, is expected to be a prominent factor in Sewanee,s victory or defeat. He is probably Sewanee's most consistent player of course, excepting oWrtham, who undoubtedly is one of the greatest little backs in the country today.
 EXPECTED TO STAR
 Skidmore and Payne, in the line, are bookcn to shower the team and them- selves with glory. It will be gratifying to alumni to know that Woodson, who has been playing star game at end, will bc in the game. His application for the army training has just been accepted and 1t was feared that he would have to report before Thanks
 
 days longer, which will give him the opportunity to exhibit some of his stel- lar work against the Gold and Black.
 In considering the forthcoming game it Is interesting to look back into the annals of past games between the teams of these two venerable old institutions. The first game of modern football was played in 1891. Had there been a game played in 1899 this years would have been the Stwenty-seventh annual meet ing of the two teams. As it is, it will be the eighteenth consecutice annual game ,and now that the Princeton Har- yard game has been discontinued, is the longest standing series of games between two such rival institutions in the country.
 Of the twenty-eight games played the Purple has come off victorious only seven times, but the scores have always been low and the rivalry keen.
 ANXIOUS TO WIN
 Last year the game resulted in 0-o tie, and naturally there is a keen de- sire to break the knot and the Royal Purple Tiger loves nothing better than to satisfy his Thanksgiving appetite on choice morsels of Commodore gore.
 The game will be cleanly fought, be- tween evenly matched teams There will be no alibis and the team which shows the greatest fight will win.

Johnson's Suggestion GrdDe
 Mistake In Baugh's Opinion
Statement of American League Executive Will Place Baseball World in Bad Light-Favors Retrenchment in the
 Southern-Atlanta Led in Attendance

Ban Johnson, president of the American league, made grave mis- take when he announced in favor or the plan to request the government to grant exemption to 2SS major league players, in the opinion of President Robert II. Baugh, president of the Southern league. Although the chief executive of Dixies major did not denounce Johnson. as many moguls have he does not hesitate to ex-, press his views to the contrary.
 President Johnson, in my opinion" said Mir. Baugh, made sedious mis- take when he signifed his intentions to ask the government for exemption of IS players of each club in both major leagues. Baseball will be able to survive the present conditions and the adoption of any such policy should meet with strenuous opposition from all quarters.
 Although do not believe Presi- dent Johnson meant anything unpa- triotfc, l believe his statements were made without a vast amount of thought His statements will help to put the baseball world in a bad light, as shown by the opposition voiced immediately to his plans
 Baseball faces a serious situation during the coming season. but it Is

not quite that serious. Just what will be the outcome of the 1918 campaigns in all circuits remains to be devel- cped by time alone.
 As far as the Southern league is concerned, believe we are the strong est minor organization. Last season was a success and I see no reason why the coming campaign should not be completed with the same result. However, I am against the starting of the season unless all teams combine to stick the schedule out"
 President Baugh also signifed his intentions to urge a retrenchment. He will also favor 14O-game sched- ule.
 Although President Baugh would not announce the official attendance fig ures of the clubs for the past cam paign, he stated that Atlanta led by a small margin. with Memphis fol- lowing. Birmingham and New Orleans followed in the order named Then came Little Rock, Nashville, Chatta- nooga and Mobile
 The leagues head also expressed satisfaction of the situation at Mo bile, and is confident that the Gulls will enjoy a prosperous year in 191S
 "The Southern league, without a doubt, IS the best minor circuit" he continued, and l see nothing but suc- cess, although the road will probably be long and rough. We are determined to make the best of it, however,

COACH MITCHELL
 ID START GRIND
 FOR COMING YEAR
Prospects Bright for Win ming Aggregation at the Y. M. c. A.-Material
 Plentiful

Coach Mitchell will issue his first call for all men who are anxious to try out for the varsity basketball team next Tuesday evening at the Young Mems Christian association. There is a vast amount of material on hand and the indications are that there will be a hard fight for the different posi- tions.
 Henley Stapleton, Norton, Davis and Walker will try out for the forward positions. Henley is one of the mem- pected to play a much better game this year than last. Stapleton, of last years squad, has increased his weight about 10 pounds and is looking much better than he ever did. He is particularly effective under the basket by being able to bat the ball on the jump. Homer Norton is an excellent all-around man the team by being able to adjust his playing to any style of game. Walker, Davis and Twinning are a trio of pep pery forwards who are expected to show up well.
 The center position will be taken care of by Bryan, Newman and Eggle- ston. Bryan has splendid basketball sense and by hard and consistent train ing should develop physique which will stand the hard strain of the game,
 The guards will be taken care of by Waldron, Chisholm, Greenwood, Sher- rod, Anderson, Harrell and Davies. Greenwood Is a veteran of the guard position and is very valuable man when his team is in need of five yards. Waldron is one of the best guards to be found anywhere. His accurate pass ing, speed and endurance should be bulwark of strength to his team. Sher- rod is a graduate of the old school and is yet playing a good game. Anderson, Harrell and Davies are all valuable material who are liable to make good at any time.
 Manager Claude Estes has started on the schedule and a number of teams are being negotiated with for games.

 Brown won, 13 to O. The contest was
 held on Braves field. It was stubbornly
 fought and the largest intercollegiate te
 football crowd of the season here
 cheered the teams
 Browns points were made in the third period. A wretched tumble of a long high punt by McDonough, Dart mouths quarterback, gave Brown the ball on Dartmouth's 10-yard line and Chief Brooks went over for touch down. Brown scored again after talk ing the ball from midfeld to Dart
 mouths six-yard line. A long forward pass helped in this advance. Brooks was used in line play and scored the second touchdown.

 Auburn recovered forward pass and kicked the ball out of danger. Stinch- comb and Harley brought the ball to the 20-yard line, where Harley failed in try for field goal. Ducote got away for five yards and gradually worked the ball into Ohio territory.
 An Auburn tumble after 15-yard run gave the ball to Ohio on the 30- yard line but Ohio's forward pass was blocked and Auburn got the ball on the dve-yard line. Ducote. kicked out of bounds on his own 25 5-yard line. Har- ley missed goal from his 35-yard line. Ducote ran the ball back five yards. Harley was taken out and Switzer sub stituted.

Vanderbilt has suffered more defeats, but they have encountered vastly stronger teams. Reports come in j that, although they have often been outclassed,' they have never been outfought. With such a team as this to face the Royal Tiger fully realizes what he has to go up against.
 REST FOR TIGERS
 For the past week the Sewanee men have had period of rest and period of hard work. It was believed that the crushing defeat at the hands of Centre was caused partly by the fact that the men were too finely drawn stale. For this reason there was no practice Monday, Wednesday or Thurs day. However, on Friday and Saturday Hardee Field was the scene of some strenuous work. The scrub team has done noble work all this season and have borne the unhonored brunt of many a cruel drubbing at the hands of the varsity. And certainly the scrubs were battered during the past two days. Up and down the field the varsity has ba tered them; now, with strenuous work on line plunging; now, on end runs, and now with forward passes
 Coach Harris Cope, who has so ably coached Sewanee teams for the past seven or eight years came up at the special request of Coach Best, to help get the team in shape for the big

 A snappy forward pass, Archer to Ramsey. produced touchdown for the home team in the second period. The customers superior weight told again in the third period, when they ploughed through the line twice for touchdowns. Meehan kicked all three goals.

Duke Ducote, right halfback of Auburn, vied with Chic Harley, right half of the Buckeyes, for the honors of the game The Alabamian outpunted his rival and with the exception of one long gain of 70 yards, the Plainsman outgained him. Ducote's longest gain was 25 yards on an end run. The latter played throughout the game and Harley only played until the middle of the third quarter. While in the game Harley missed one easy goal from placement from the 20-yard line, while on another occasion he missed an- other from a difficult angle His team mates gave him beautiful interference. but not once did he get away for broken field run.
 On more than one occasion the Auburn line held the visitors within their own 5-yard line and recovered the ball on downs. The game was witnessed by 1o,- 600 people, a number of prominent Ohio officials being numbered among the throng.
 PRAISE FOR AUBURN
 Praise is due Auburns s line, which held the Buckeyes on Auburns own 2-yard line and recovered the ball on downs. They charged low and well and when an opening was wanted for one of their backs, they went into the seasoned Ohio men and opened hole almost large enough for a team to drive through. Time and again the secondary defense of the Buckeyes was called on to stop the plunging backs of the Tigers.
 Auburn played straight football. piung- ing the line and end runs and when forced to, would punt. The kicks were l.s .s-l.a o,,l fI,n de followed them and held most of the gains usually made in this manner.
 The Ohio State team played a variety of plays and the famous Harley was the center of all formations. Only one time in the game did he get away and then for a gain of 40 yards. He missed two easy trys at goal from placement, both going wide He was taken out in the third quarter and the team seemed to take on new life and started march for the goal, which was stopped by an offside penalty of five yards.
 DUCOTE IS STAR
 The bright, particular star of the game was Duke Ducote, right half of the Auburn aggregation. He outpunted and outgained the star of the visitors as far as consistent gaining was concerned. His greatest run was for 25 yards, but sev- eral of his punts went for 50 yards, a.
  . gain nevertheless. Ducote was called on time and again when distance was needed and whether it was to skirt an end or over a tackle, he always produced a gain ranging from a yard or two to five and six.
 Revington and Donahue, the other baelSfield men of Auburn, also contributed to the gain making of Auburn and but for fumbling in the first part of the game, there might be a different tale to tel of the game. Auburn played the entire game without using a substitute in the backfield and all of them came through the game without being inca pacitated by a serious injury.
 Just before the end of the game Ohio State pulled off a number of forward passes, but with Harley out of the game, they seemed to always go for only short gain or loss. The game ended with the ball in possession of Auburn on her 12-yard line.
