ALLIES SCRAMBLE FOR
PLACES ON MISSION
BY ROBERT ]. BENDER,
United Press Staff Correspondent.


WASHINGTON, July iO-AIl the Allies
today are scrambling for generous rep
resentation on the propaganda-pollce
force which will accompany the Amer
iean-Allied economic mission to aid Rus
sla.
How to divide the appOrtionment and
keep peace and cOntentment In the in
ternatlOnal family is one Of the big
problems Wilson and his advisers are
now disentangling. England wants to
share equally; France realizes that she
and America are perhaps the best liked
by Russians; Japan says she ought TO
be heavily represented as one OF the
most interested Of neighbors.
Thus goes the friendly discussion.
But the settlement of the basis Of rep
resentation offers really a complicated
problem. The adjustments and explana-
tlons thereof must be made without
injury OF such a family are intricately
balanced. The United Press original
exclusive announcements as to the main
project mission plus an armed force
to aid Russia and help her back to her
feet, still stands. but the difficulties
cited above and the solution Of others
is delaying the situation somewhat,
though as much haste as is possible is
being made.
The whole problem is authoritatively
analyzed as follows:
Russia must unite within herself. |
Then she must unite against the Ger
man. The armed forces accompanying l
the mission will take the place Of pro- |
paganda which has failed because many I
Russians do not read. 1t will be the |
business Of the propaganda police to
and teach the aims of the
to inspire the Russians TO
unite among themselves and get order
)ut Of disorder. Once organized they
must be inspired to unite against Ger
many and re-established an eastern
frontier.
Unity without supplies is regarded
Useless. Hence, the mission must help
hem establish supplies and this means
continuation Of ordnance factories, re-
organization Of agriculture and soon. II
ppears long task But, II IL can sue
eed It cheats Germany of her spoils |
nd gives Russia a fresh. outstanding !
lace among the nations.

cars. Someone called the attention OF
Mr.. Wilson to the annoyance Of the
interruption, and to the danger Of the
passage Of cars through the mass Of
people and he responded promptly by
taking the cars off that route from I
o'clock until 10 o'clock. This will be
done each Tuesday night Of the outdoor
sings.
The chorus sang splendldly last night
and was enthusiastically clapped by the
crowd. Another feature that delighted
the assemblage was the gathering OF
children by Mr.. Barnhart, who marched
them up and down the square singing
patriotically. The echo" chorus last
night was given by the young men in
the windows Of the old court house,
who responded finely when called upon.
Mr.. Balnhart told the gathering that
next Sunday. In New York, they viii
have community sings all day in Central
Park. He said he hoped 10 bring down
some more orchestra players TO VIII

GOLDEN TORNADO
 LEAVES FOR GAME
Heisman's Team Averages 175 Pounds to the Man.
 Two Vets in Line-Up

Atlanta, Ga, November 2t.-The Geor- gia Tech eleven accompanied by small delegation of fans, left here late today bound for Pittsburg, where on Saturday. the Georgians will endeavor to uphold the souths football honors in game with the Pittsburg Partners.
 The Golden Tornado, which in the past two years has taken the place Wander bilt once held on southern football fields, and has an unbroken string of victories since 1915, is not as strong as in 1911 for Captain Fincher, end, and Joe Guyon tackle, are the only two regulars returned from last year. Coach John Heisman, however, has built up a machine which has piled up 425 points to nothing in five games this year.
 Open work, especially end runs, for ward passes and broken field running has accounted for most of Techs touch downs The famous jump shift is an- other factor in it's attack. If the team may be said to have a weak point 1t is in the line, and Tech supporters fear fhe crashes against 1t of McLaren, the Panthers' great fullback
 The team according to unofficial rec ords, averages 175 pounds to a man, and has an average age of 20 years. Of the men on the first string squad, 20 are from Georgia, and one each from Flor ida. South Carolina, Texas and New Mexico.

When the decadent period of football set in at Carlisle, Warner went to Pitts burg-which was in 1915-and not since the day he took charge of that squad has a Pittsburg eleven suffered defeat. Pittsburg has played something like 2S games against the most powerful out fits it could face-and has won every combat.
 Heisman's coaching experience has been confined almost exclusively to the south. After five years at Alabama Poly he coached the Clemson College (S. @ team for four years and in 1904 moved on to Georgia Tech He has been there ever since and year after year has turned out elevens that have been sensations. But Heisman really came into his own in 1915 when he welded together an un- beaten eleven, following this with teams in 1916 and 1917 which did not suffer defeat.
 Both the Pittsburg and Georgia Tech squads were shot to pieces by gradua- tions, drafts and enlistments, prior to the opening of the 1918 season, but both coaches took the material that remained, mixed it together with some green ma. terial and the result has been two elevens that stand out as the most remarkable in America.
 And so, with two such wonderful teams pitted against each ether, and two such remarkable coaches furnishing the driv- ing power for each, is it any wonder that the football world is feverish with an- ticipation for the gridiron classic that is to be staged in Pittsburg tomorrow?

Corbett's Daily Letter
 On Great Sport Topics
By JAMES J. CoRBETT

No gridiron clash in collegiate history ever has provoked as much interest or as great a discussion as that one to- morrow. {
 Georgia Tech vs. Pittsburg.
 For the first time two elevens unbeaten over a sweep of nearly four complete seasons, clash with each other to de- termine the football supremacy of the United States. Each has become na- tionally prominent since 1915, due to its amazing feats on the football field and the battle tomorrow should settle the big argument.
 .Ts southern or eastern football su- perior?'
 Not only does the game tomorrow in- volve titanic struggle between two great elevens, but it also is clash between two men who perhaps rank as the great est football coaches in America-Glen Warner of Pittsburg, and John w. Heis- man of Georgia Tech.
 Heisman has been called "Footbalrs Master Strategist." And for many years Warner has been known as one of the trickiest, brainiest and most original football tutors that ever lived. Each man has been conspicuous as a football pilot for more than a quarter of cen tury and these two, together with Alonzo Stagg of Chicago, constitute Football s Trinity

Pittsburg, November 21.-With the big gest football game of the United States only three days off, supporters of the University of Pittsburg have made their team the odds on favorite in the clash with the great southern team, Georgla Tech.
 The eyes of the football world will DC focused on Forbes field next Saturday when the two premier teams, one the best in the north and east and the other the best in the south line up in a benerit game for the united war work fund.
 The fact that it is a benefit game will not detract from the importance or the contest, for both teams will display ther greatest assortment of wares. There has been no way in which to get fine on the ability of either team. There has been no common opponent. Georgia Tech played Penn last year and beat them de- cisiveIy. Pitt defeated Penn, too, but not by such a big score. Then there was a difference in time in which the game was played Tech met Penn at the beginning of the season, while Penn was primed for the Pitt game.
 When the Great Lakes training station handed Rutgers drubbing last Satur- day while Pitt was downing it's rival, Penn, there was great joy in the Pan- thers' lair. Pitt and the training sta- tion were scheduled to open the season here, but the influenza ban cancelled the game, at least as far as the public was concerned. But the embryo sailors reached Pittsburg before the Joan was placed and wanted some action to com pensate for their long journey.
 Behind closed gates Pitt and the Great Lakes team went at it, but the latter insisted that there should be no touch downs, in fact neither team was to go beyond the 10-yard line. With this ab breviated field the team teams set to- gether. Pitt crossed the 20-yard line four times, while the Great Lakes team put the ball over the 20-yard mark once, indicating four touchdowns to one.
 With the calling off of the Camp Cor don game last Saturday, Pitt lost it's last opportunity to see the Golden Tornado in action. Once before a secret agent was sent south to see Tech in action but he became i'll and could not attend the game.
 Pitt has been made the favorite in the betting to the tune of to ?, but if there is any considerable amount of money coming up from the south these odds might fluctuate. Some betters are de- manding 10 to 8. Captain McLaren, the fullback, was kept out of the game Sat urday so he would be in fine fettle for next Saturday. He was suffering from a number of bruises received in the Washington-J efferson game. Easterday and Davies were kept in only during the first half that they would be fit for the fray.
 Pitt claims not to be worrying any about the jump shift, in fact, the play CTS claim they will smother it before it gets into action, and unless Tech comes through with some other ground gain ing play, will be helpless.
