 Returns To
 Vanderbilt
Commodores Meet Georgia Tech In Hard Struggle To-
 morrow In Atlanta
By JOE HATCHER


 Nashville, Tenn, October IA. Especial. )-Frank Goar's re- turn to Vanderbilt this week gives the Commodores the greatest pair of punters under any college standard in the south this season.
 Both Neil and Goar are Birmingham products and both rank with the top notchers in the booting line Goar has the distinction of never having been out punted during his four years of c4in- paigning under McGugin's leadership and is one of the greatest punters that ever played in the south. He has out-pointed such notables as Flowers. Thurman. Hatcher, Ducote, Strupper, Bonner and \other rivals. His ability to win any duels entered to date has done much for Com modore victories His entrance in the Auburn game, after getting up from sick bed a few hours before the game, gave the team the last inspiration and the fighting spirit to hold Auburn with the ball near the goal on one of those memorable marches and retreats. Frank, fin addition to being a first rate punter. is a defensive and offensive f1ankman 
 and Goar doing regular chores, and Woodson, former Sewanee captain, and Conyers. who played a wonderful game against Alabama in Birmingham in '19, Vanderbilt has about the best fortified Hanks in Dixie for the 1920 campaign.

 Nicely seems to bo the real find of the season as half back and his super defensive work on running down punts and intercepting passes in the Tennessee game practically assures him start against the Tech machine. The Tennes- zee team had Berryhill and Latham spotted in the game Saturday, thus eff fectvely holding the two in end runs, but letting Hendrick slip away for three touchdowns and long runs at critical mo- ments.

Freddie Boorde, recently of Atlanta, who has decided to make Birmingham his home, is certainly a husky young chap, and should give Jack Brady, Athletic Club boxer, whale of bat tie next Thursday, when the two are scheduled to meet in a ten-round bout. FREDDIE IS ONLY
 A YOUNGSTER
 Boorde is only a youngster, about 19 years of age. There are many years of active campaigning ahead of him yet, and his preliminary ring training has certainly fitted him for a successful career. Many months under the watchful eye of Walk Mill Ter of Atlanta has developed in him many fine points of boxing. Now he has joined forces with Tommy Tomp- kins of the B. A. C., and of course is ir line for some more mighty valuable training under veteran with a rep behind him. 130 POUNDS OF

being much heavier than he really ia Weighing about 130 pounds when stripped, he has the appearance of a husky young panther. His shoulders are broad, hips slender. In fact, his build is more symmetrical than is us- ually' found on fighter of his class.
 Freddie is solid muscle. Despite the fact that he has several years in which to reach the height of his ma- turity, he is as hard and as seasone0 as a veteran. He is in the best of condition.
 Boorde is fast on his feet and pos sesses 8 punch heavy enough to lay out an opponent ten or fifteen pounds heavier than himself.
 This youngster has taken up Bfr- mingham as his home and has already entered the local sport world. He has fought here once, is matched for fight for next week and is training with local football team. Quite lot of athletics for one young 130 pounder.

AGAINST Puny Pr0fiteers,

The lowering of wholesale prices on
foods and clothing has not led TO
sufficient reduction in retail prices
among dealers, and the probability
exists that profiteering by the smaller
dealers Is chiefly responsible Tor a
failure OF prices to the consumer TO
fall, 1t was declared at the Depart
ment of Justice today.
On the basis of charges filed with
the Federal Trade Commission, by its
agents in various fields, the Attorney
General has directed that proper steps
be taken by fair price committees
throughout the United States to watch
carefully for unjust charges being
extorted from the public by the
smaller dealers, in violation of the
Lever law.
Latest reports laid before Attorney
General Palmer are convincing that

and consequent lowering of prices of
commodities that enter chiefly into
the foods offered for sale, an imme-
date. and substantial reduction in
retail prices OF foods, particularly
grain foods, should be apparent in
current quotationss. The absence OF
any very large reductions has war
ranted officials in proceeding vigor-
ously to check the imposition of un-
just charges upon the public.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.--Here is
a free tip to the Democrats of Ten !
nessee. If you want to have cinch
in the next election, arrange to have
1t set for March 5, 1921. and have
the absent voters law repealed in the
meantime. All INDICATIONS now point
to the fact there will be no Repub-
licans in Tennessee on the date afore
mentioned. They will all be in
Washington clamoring for jobs un-
der the Harding administration. As
the situation now appears, the BibN-
cal invitation to TASK and We shall
receive" is going to put to the acid
test by Tennesseans who voted the
G. 0. p. ticket. If all the volunteers
or the Volunteer state who have vol
unteered the information that they
are in a receptive mood for patron
age are to be taken care of, the
Harding administration will be hard
put to find jobs for them all and will
have to leave the stalwarts of all
the other G. o. r. states out in the
cold altogether.
Almanacs and government blue
books" containing information as to
the salaries attached to federal Jobs
are said to be in great demand in
Tennessee just now. 1t is said that
every man and woman in the state,
practically, who voted for Harding,
is grooming himself or herself for a
place in the cabinet, judgeship, a
diplomatic post, a marshaiship, tor
some such reward for having helped
to break the solid South. They are
said to look upon their votes as so
many liens upon government Jobs
and they are already beginning to
lean upon the pie counter,
