VANDY'S SCHEDULE

Commodores Expecting to Record Victory Over
 Howard in Tilt at
 Nashville Saturday

Nashville, october g5.-(Specfal)- )-The Vanderbilt schedule is being shaken up as well as the lineup of the team. Ar engagements have just been completed for Auburn to play in Nashville No vember F, the week following the game with the University of Alabama. Then or November 2f the husky team of the Virginia field artillery stationed at Fort Oglethrope, will charge the Commodores on Dudley field. This game takes the place of the Carlisle Indian game which could not be satisfactorily arranged.
 Coach McGugn has again made changes in the line up of the Commodore machine in an effort to develop more speed and power. Captain Adams who has heretofore been stationed on one flank, has been sent to the fullback po~ sition to replace Hendrix.
 In all probability the lineup for the game with Howard next Saturday will show some more changes. Conyers has again been placed on one end opposite Hendrix and if Captain Adams remains in the backfield, he will be given a regular berth as one of the flankmen. The Commodores are confident of win ming the game with Howard Saturday, but beyondf this looms the game with Georgia Tech Saturday week.

MILLER HUGG|NS ID
 SUCCEED DONOVAN
 AS YANKEE PILOT
Boss of Cardinals Will Lead New Workers in Next Campaign of American
 League

New York, October 25.-President Ja- cob Ruppert of the New York American league team announced today he had signed Miller Huggins, manager of the St. Louis team, to manage the Yankees under d two-year contract
 Huggins will succeed William Dono- van, who has managed the Yankees for the last three seasons. Huggins con- ferred with Branch Hickey, president of the St. Louis Nationals, last week, and they were unable to reach terms. He then accepted the offer from the New York club.
 IIuggins has spent his entire major league career in the National league up to the present. He was purchased by Cincinnati from St Paul in 1905, and played there until 1910, when he was traded to St. Louis. He was appointed manager of the St Louis club in 1912, and retired as an active player last season During his career as manager St. Louis finished third twice, the high est the club has been since 1876.
 President Ruppert said Donovan will nos be retained in any capacity, although Ruppert paid an eloquent tribute to the former manager, saying his release caused him more grief than anything which has happened during his business career.
 Huggins said he had no immediate plans for the club although he thinks ne has the nucleus of a strong team and expects the club to be well up in the race. He will bring with him Thomas Conery the former scout of the Cardt- nals.
 Huggins is the ninth manager engaged by the New York Americans since club was placed in New York, the others being Griffith. Elberfeld, Stallings, Chase, Wolverton, Chance, Peckinpaugh and Donovan

BLOODY CONFLICT IS
 OUTLOOK OF AUBURN AND AGGIES' BATTLE
Plainsmen Rule as TavOrites for Victory-Aggies AL ways Battle Until Last
 Minute

When the Auburn Plainsmen cls sh With the Mississippi Aggies tomorrow afternoon, one of the most strenuous battles of the season for local fans is anticipated. The Agge and Plainsmen are reported to be in excellent condi- tion and confident of victory by a sale score.
 Both teams have number of new men on their roster. The Plainsmen will enter the battle with over half of their men inexperienced, as far as $. I. A. A. games are concerned. The Aggies lost a number of men on account of the war also, and very probable the ma jority of their outfit will be composed of unfamiliar gridiron artists to the local fandom.
 The Plainsmen have strong out. all though not equal to some of the Don ahue machines in previous years. It is reported Coach Donahue will shift his style of play repeatedly during the con- test. refraining from the use of straight football entirely, and using the open play.
 Coach Chadwick's Aggies have always featured in the open attack. and they'll probably depend on it again this year as the threatening power against the Plainmen's goal line, which is uncrossed to date.
 Auburn will rule the favorite in the betting, and is generally expected to win but not by substantial score. The Az gies always offer exceptional fight against Auburn and for this reason, if for no other the score would be kept within striking distance.
 Although the official starting time for s-.me game has not been announced, it is thougntastaat hostilities will be started at either 2:30No. 3 o'clock. Officials fef the contest will le announced Ia atef Tha regular admission pffeeA~stf4 Sl. will pre- vail, with an extra charge for parking automobiles inside the park. All seati will be the same price.

EXPECT HARD GAME

As is a rule with Coach Donahue to- morrow will be devoted to light sig
 nal practice and in general light work to keep the men in condition Auburn is expecting a hard game with Missis- sippi A. & M and is not coming to Birmingham expecting a walk-away. Hard work has been the order this week and no alibies will be offered If the Orange and Blue does not win. The team is green, but fights as machine and not as individual men. There is plenty of competition for places and for this reason the men who are now on the squad have had to work with all their might to win their places

Coach Donahue Drives Men Through Final Scrmmage Der of New Faces to Be in Line-Up But All Are Real
 Scrappers-Robinson Not in Shape
Fly F. W. M,MEANs

Auburn, October 25.--( Especial. )-For the last time before the Auburn Tigers meet their foe from the wilds of Mis- sissippi the varsity and the scrubs had Tit out in fierce line plunges, end runs and forward passes The scrimmage was fierce. the good old scrubs being so good that it was all the varsity could do to gain any material advant- age. However. the old punch has been developed for the all important game on Saturday with the Aggies and with the team going as it did this evening, a great team must be developed by the Plainsmens opponents to beat them.
 Coach Donahue is not allowing any possibility of not having enough quar- terbacks to run his team this week.. With Captain Robinson injured and Nall of Central High school fame, is getting his share of the work. It ap- pears that this little midget is going to be worth his weight in gold to the Tigers this year. as he has had as hard a training course in the gentle art of football as any man on the team with the possible exception of Robinson.
 DUCOTE EXPERIENCED
 However. Jimmie is little and there is a possibility that Brother Bobo and gang might get him. so big Duke" Ducote is being trained to run the team also. Duke has been playing offensive halfback and defendsive end, but with his intimate Knowledge of Donahues S methods could no doubt in the case of emergency, as in the Clemson game give the opposition all it is looking for He has powerful voice and there s little danger that he cannot be heard His other work on the team is we'll known and a great deal is expected of the brilliant Springhill college star. In previous games this season, his end runs and line plunges have been noth- ing less than spectacular.
 Another man on the list of possible stars. who will later show his light besides his speed is Rat" Trapp, from the land from which the Aggies hail. He came to Auburn last year, but failed to make the squad. but his work in class games was of such fine caliber that Coaches Donahue and Tichanor
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-10-26

have been giving him plenty of chance to show his ability at the difficult quarterback position. He is young, but heady and fast, and football fans will only get a chance to see his dust 1T he ever gets loose in an open field.
 Rexington at fullback has been show ing up unusually well so far this sea son, his physical condition being much better this season than last His fast and brilliant work against Clemson has already given him mention for all- southern honors, and Auburn support CTS both students and alumni, are waiting with feverish interest to see what he is going to do against the strong Aggie bunch. He is one of the best taclxlers on the team. is fast and has a thorough knowledge of old man Spalding'S'' football rules

DONAHUE IS STARRING

Along in the f1rSt lineup IS llttlc "Bill' Donahue, a brother of Coach Donahue. and who has received great deal of creditable mention, which has been forthcoming on account of his good work. He seems to have the speed of his brother, who. with his little statue and light weight, made Yales varsity squad. As safety man, Robbie Hall of Montgomery will likely start the game. Robbie" is one of the Tigers best tacklers and is also a good man on the offensive. His speed and knack of finding holes, which seem not there have won him his place on the squad after a year of scrubbing last year against the varsity.
 Ducote will do the bunting. but in Hughes Auburn has a man who in an emergency can be depended on to do we'll at kicking. Greet has won his place on the squad by consistent work md hard line p1unging. His work does not become spectacular, but is of the good, steady variety that wins football ,,oc,
