SEASON SUCCESS
IN EVERY WAY
Feature of Year Was the Big
Number Of High Class Ma
chimes That Were Gotten
Together.

Probably the most successful foot
ball that Southern colleges and uni
versities have ever experienced came
to close last week with q number
of spectacular contests in which the
well coached eiovens of the South
proved themselves worthy foes of the
country's best elevens.
Attendance records were broken
at almost all Southern fields. accord
ing to reports, and interest among
students and other spectators ran
higher than ever before. The greatest
feature of the season, in the minds
of many, however, was the large
number of gridiron machines of out
standing caliber that were devel-
oped. In previous years there have
been one or two great Southern
teams that in games with highly
| trained elevens of the North showed
themselves finished machines, capa-
BILE of ranking high nationally. This
year that list was enlarged to include
| half dozen or more.
There were a number of intersec-
tional contests during the season and
indications are that more will be
scheduled next year. Centre Is TO
play Harvard again next season;
Georgia Tech will play some big
Eastern eleven, probably Yale; other
| teams that are expected to engage
in intersectional games include: Au-
burn, North Carolina State, Tulane,
V. NJ. l., Virginia university, Wash e
ington and Lee, and possibly others
From their records of. this "ear, many
of them have at least an even chance
of returning victors.
OF the many great elevens that the
season produced, four came through
with records of no defeats by other
Dixie teams, three of them, Georgia
Tech, Georgia university and Tulane
in the Southern intercollegiate Ath-
letic association, and one, V. NJ. l..

goal in the first half on a mass play
at the York goal. Later in the same
half Chisholm brought a goal kick
down the field and shot goal from a
difficult angle. In the second half
the Yorks fought hard, determined to
even the count and the best they
could do was to score one goal on a
good kick from Rickenbergs toe on
goal kick, which Rick carried
down. Butts later missed with a
sure tie goal, when his feet became
mixed up with the ball.
Rickenberg, Rainey Duff and
Butts did most Of the good work for
the losing Yorks, while Chisholm,
Stafford Webb and the Bishop broth
ers played stellar soccer for the
winning Floyds.
The acknowledged surprise of the
day came in the second contest,
when the plucky jefferson Cleaners
game.
During the. first half of the second
game the Y. NJ. |. and jefferson
Cleaners split up honors with both
sides sweeping the ball down the
field with good long kicks, and good
backfield blocking. The second half
started with the Y. NJ. l. staging one
of, their well-known offensives Had
it not been for the spectacular work
Of the backfield of the jefferson
Cleaners, particularly Craft. B. JEFF
ferson and Fredericks, the result
may have been different, as the en-
| tire Y. NJ. l. forward line shot for
goal many times, only to haxe some
tof them miss by a few inches or
feet
The fighting spirit of the Jeffer-
son Cleaners was in evidence
throughout the contest, not detract-
ing from the spirit of the Y. NJ. l.
kteam, who have shown the required
spirit in all Of their games this sea-
son.
| O'Reilly, Hugh, Joyce and Harkins
played best for the Y. M. l., while the
good work of Fredericks, Craft and B
Jefferson seemed to shade all eff
forts of their team mates.

Blossom Seeley, still the charming

The last time we saw Blossom was
about four years ago in Nashville.
She was considerable Blossom then,

married a short while, and she
thought he was the greatest pitcher
in the world. But now it's all diff
