ditions In that country.
There has been great development

Cunningham declared. II found no
discrimination against Americans In
the granting Of development privileg-
es. The new tracts must be develop
ed. and that takes money.
American bankers and business
men forfeit their great opportunity
In Mexico by becoming frightened at
every sign OF a revolution. Concerns
controlld by other countries sit tight
and saw wood during revolution,
and come out of IL more solidly en-
trenched than before. American firms
cancel contracts and demand cash be-

into panic every time there Is trouble
in Mexico. They cannot come to un-
derstand the small effect revoiu-

Cunningham denied stories recently
sent from Mexico that the supply OF
petroleum is getting low in that
country. The great demand calls for
additional production and this the

there are striving to meet. he de-
clared.

Tigers Return From mClen1son; Hard At Work
By LESLIE l.. GILBERT

Auburn, October 18.-(Spe- cial. )-Mike Donahue has re- turned with his Tiger team un- scathed from their brush with Clemson last week. Scott was the only one who was hurt at all, he being tackled hard in the first quarter soon after making a rather sensational thirty-yard run. He was re- lieved by Creel. His injuries are not serious, however, and he will be in the game against Vandy on Saturday.
 One of the features of the Clemson game seemed to be the agility with which Auburn followed the ball, for no matter whether a tumble was made by Clemson or Auburn, it was an Auburn player who recovered the ball.
 Ed Shirling did better work at full back than recently, particularly in thu bucking the line. While Bullock wa" put In OrfBlnally to save SHiTlilS df much as possible, when the time cam to buck the ball over, he was replaced by Shirling, who accomplished all that was expected of him.
 The entire Georgia team were in terested spectators of the game, hay ing driven through the country fror Athens for that purpose. As return compliment, Coach Mike Donahue, the backfield and several of the line wen down to Greenville the day following to watch the Georgia-Furman game Boozer Pitts, Auburns assistant coach umpired the game.
 In Auburn all eyes are now turned toward Birmingham for game with vandy on next Saturday. Every after noon this week the team will be or Drake Field working out in prepara ton for that contest
 A large number of the Auburn dunn expects to be present on this occasion and it is expected that most of the executive council will be present in : body.
 There is considerable talk and specu lation about the roughness of the Sat urday game at Nashville between Geor- gia Tech and Vanderbilt in which { free-for-aIl fight was staged durine the play. The team from the Alabama Polytechnic Institute has been entirely free from criticism of this character and has at all times reflected the quail ties Of true sportsmanship and the .higf ideals symbolic of the true Auburn spirit"

Speed Action Is
 Lost to Howard
FuIIbaCk and Captain Decides He Has Had Enough College Educati0n-CIark
 Promoted
By MAXWELL ALLEN

The gentle chuckles which resounded through the halls of Howard college have changed into grief stricken walls, for the Bulldog supporters have just learned that Burney Acton, captain and fullback, has decided that he has enough college edu- cation and is leaving for home,
 While the Crimson and Blue squad backfield men, it is more than mans job to find someone to take Speed Ac- tons place.
 Acton came to Howard in 1918 and in that year Howard only played two games Acton proved himself to be a bright light in the back field and when he returned to Howard last year he was at once placed at full by Coach Dillon. He remained there and played a star game the whole season.
 Clark will be the man on whom Coach Marshall will depend to fill Acton's place. Clark is a good man on the de- fensive and is fiend for hitting the line and skirting the ends Though not quite as good as Acton, he should prove to be a good dependable fullback
 Though the Howardites ran into a team that had them outweighed at least % pounds to the man when they tied up with Mercer last Saturday, there was not single Bulldog injured beyond the sundry bruises and scratches that go to
 make Up the gridiron warriors life. The Bulldogs are working hard these days. One reason is the fact that they are to play the University of Alabama next Saturday, which is more than a tough assignment for team of How ards caliber. Of course, the Bulldogs
 do not expect a look in when they lock horns with Scotts Crimson and White gang of moleskinners, so they are merely using that game as an excuse for hard
 practice for the games that follow the tilt with the university.
 Shane, the big fellow who was out of the game for several days on account
 of lusty kick in the back, was out for practice yesterday and the big guard looks as fit as a fiddle. Besides giving his two competitors, Lambert and Wheeler something to lay awake al night and think about he ougn, 10 a,so cause a lot of trouble to Towards en- emies when he goes in the game. While the Howard gang has had two crushing defeats this season and is ex-
 pectng another at the hands of Ala bama in the game Saturday, they have demonstrated that they are capable oi
 beating the tar out of formidable op- ponent of their own class and are ex- pecting to give everyone on their sched-
