course, school expenditures have not
been reduced this amount, as practi-
cally the same sum would have been
spent for education in the counties had
the school attendance law not been in
operation: but the persistent presence
of more children receiving the instruc-
ton given amounted to a saving of
1851 orth of scwhool training,
which otherwise would have been lost.
The salaries, travelling expenses Of
attendance officers, and other costs of
enforcing the law did not exceed s1S.-
600; thus $4,000 additional invested
in law enforcement secures $165,12o

-3.25 spent on enforcing the law kept
an average of one more child in
attendance.

 Bearing out predictions of many foot ball critics, the clash in New Orleans yesterday between the University of the South and Louisiana State proved stiff one.

Neither team had been de1eat~a this season and both elevens had pre- viously shown marked scoring power. notably the Tennesseeans in their high score registered against Transylvania..

Of Jackets to
 Major
Auburn and Mississippi Ag- gies to Meet Here Satur- day-COntenders Remain Undefeated

Atlanta, October 21.- Showing by far a better mas tery of the game than in any previous contest this season the Georgia Tech eleven's overwhelming defeat of Washington and Lee stands out as one of the significant results of football games in the south yesterday that marked the opening of the drive of the major teams for the seasons honors.
 Manifesting a marked improvement in the detail of the game than they showed in their recent victory over Davidson college, the Jackets held the virginians practically at their mercy throughout the contest, which ended in 63 to score. This was the worst defeat ever administered to an eleven representing the Lexington university.
 With a total of 196 points rolled up in their favor so far this season and 10 points against them, the Georgians will rest this week. their next schedule being with Vanderbilt, on November 3.
 MANDY TEAM WEAK
 Recuperative assets among the Van derbilt players apparently have not come up to the expectations of the Commodore coaches. Vanderbilts run ming attack so far this season nas been complete failure, it is said, de- spite a complete reorganization of the team after its crushing defeat by Chi cago.
 The Commodores, however, were suc- cessful yesterday against Kentucky State, winning by the small score of to 0, and face Howard college at Nashville Saturday. The record of the Birmingham team this season includes

 AUBURN VS. AGGIES
 Notwithstanding the formidable of fensive drive presented by Auburn in it's games with Howard college and a team of Ohio soldiers, the Plainsmen were held to lone touchdown by Clemson Friday, and this week meet Mississippi A. & M at Birmingham. There has been little opportunity to judge the Missssippians football pow CT so far this season. Clemson's next game is with South Carolina at Co., lumbia Thursday.
 Another match of promise in the south this week is the University of Alabama and the University of Missis- sippi meeting at Tuscaloosa. Alabama defeated Mississippi college. 46 to 0, yesterday, while on the other hand her opponents this week were trimmed by the Louisiana Tigers, 52 to [.

quarter neither team had shown any ad- vantage For 10 minutes of the second quarter it was jut as close and as saw agely fought. Finally Georgia Tech got the ball on Alabamas io-yard line. This is what Heisman told me about the next move:
 This was the opportunity we were awaiting and I sent into the game at half Everett Strupper., then IS years old, who was playing his first year on the varsity. As "a freshman the previous year he had given repeated evidence of his ability in open field running. We Immediately used a formation somewhat like the punt lineup and sent Strupper, with heavy interference, around left end. He was easily the fastest man in the state of Georgia and his swift rush, like that of greyhound, carried the ball to Alabama's 20-yard line.
 "A tackle buck brought the ball near midfield and another line play was used to rest the kids Neither gained ground. It was third down and still 20 yards from the goal line. We had planned for just such situation and very coolly and deliberately Tech unfolded the one special play reserved to win the game. Morrison, our quarter back, remembered his instructions very well.
 The formation consisted Tn Sprea01ng our rush line across the field, each man about seven yards from his nearest com rade. Four yards back of center stood the quarter and two yards back of him the other backs in regular line of three. Strupper. tine man of destiny, stood at left half.
 We had figured that by allowing 2 little time to elapse before using the play we had planned for this moment that our opponents would spread them~ selves apart in some loose formation to oppose us. This they did. The forma- ton had succeeded in making them draw back some of their men to guard against forward passes. Thus was offered to us the finest kind of an opportunity to throw Strupper, our great open field runner, into a broken field Our faith was so strong in his ability to make his own way over the goal under such con entrust the fortunes of the game to him.
 The pass to Strupper was perfect and he was off, with all his accustomed con fidence and binding speed. The other three backs were depended upon to take care of our opponents who might break through our widely scattered line of scrinmage We knew if we got Strup- per that far. he could well shift for him self This duty was well performed. In fact. but one man came through so that our backfieId interference not only took

SPORTS

For the frs Ntilae in the history of football the south has come into us own No matter what the alibi, no matter what the excuse the fact VIII ever remain that the eleven of Georgla Tech. coached by J. W. Heisman, a long time ago Penn player himself, nos only met and defeated Pennsylvania at Atlanta this fall, but gave the Quakers the worst drubbing they ever had, with but one single exception, since the foot ball sun arose in Philadelphia away back in ls92-the year that the Red and Blue first took the measure of the then great Princeton team The score. fl to ', that Georgia Tech ran up against Penn at Atlanta, is no fluke or no mean vic tory, It is such an unheralded per formance sthat one cannot quite get his breath.
 There was nothing out of the usual about this victory. It was well earned and it remains a tribute to the coach and players who won it. It was system against system and the honors rest With Heisman and Everett Strupper, the l9- year-old half back of 150 pounds, play ing his second year of football, who lit erally ran circles around the vaunted Red and Blue defense.
 That Georgia Tech is no will Q the wisp in football circles is quite evident when one considers it's record. Last year its team, coached by Heisman, won the southern championship on Thanks giving day by defeating Alabama Poly in d rattling good game which proved beyond doubt that southern football was high-class The victory over Penn but accented this, as it will awaken the football world to the fact that ali the science, brains and daring in football is not confined to a narrow strip of terri tory along the north Atlantic seaboard.
 HEISMAN'S STORY
 Recently J. w. Heisman, an outdoor man, told me of his team winning the southern title last year. Let me give you the story in his own words that you may judge whether or not southern foot ball is on a par with the eastern article. whether the one-sided score run up on Penn was due to the Quakers having a weak eleven-which seems odd when the backfield was about the same as that which defeated Cornell and Michigan last year--or whether Georgia Tech is unusually strong and well coached.
 Georgia Tech had to win from Ala hama Poly last year to make good it's title. The game proved to be a nip and tuck affair. At the end of the first
