RECEIPTS LIGHT AT

MOULTRIE, Nov. 12.-The spread
between the Moultrie and Chicago
hog markets is smaller than it has
been in long time, number ones
brining 6 cents here Friday and 7
cents in Chicago. There have been
several breaks in the Chicago market
this week, but the price at the Union
Stockyards here has remained prac-
tically stationary. Farmers are not
showing such disposition to sell, how
ever, and the receipts are unusually
ligh- for this season of the year. Il
is expected that they will get larger
when the peanut fields are eaten out
within next few weeks.

ACCIES HUMBLE
HAUHTY NORMAN
Hcay Visitors Held To Scorelcss
Tic By Fighting Football
Team Here

Tears filled the eyes of Coach
Jenkins, of the Norman Institute
football team, Friday afternoon when
the game here with the Third District
Aggies had ended in a scoreless tie
as he told Aggie faculty members of
his great disappointment; how his
team had rome to Amerilus for
practice game in preparation for a
real game next week and had expect
ed to rim up score of 70 points or
more to 0.
Probably no greater surprise was
ever administered to an athletic ag-
gregation than that encountered
here. Outweighing the Aggics be-
and with severa lyears of playing ex-
tween 30 and 40 pounds to the man,
perience and excellent coaching be-
hind thm, the Norman Park team
planned to romp over and show up
the light and inexperienced Aggies
A squad of probably SO Norman stu
dents accompanied the team to wit
ness the slaughter But what they
experienced and saw wa sa game that
was nip and tuck from start to finish,
with the lighter team fighting every
inch of the way lion heartedly, and
with ability at advancing the ball
FULLY equal to the visitors.
The game was full of thrills. IN
the lrst Period Just before the whis-
tie blew, the Norman lads succeeded
IN rushing the ball to within inches
of Aggies' goal, only to be held for
downs and lose their only real near
chance for a score. Shorty there
after in tn second period, the Aggies
by series of skilfhl forward passes
and end rims, reached the Norman
goal and on a bhck a man carried
the ball iver the line only to be SHOW
cd back before the ball was out of
play by the heavy Norman lineman,
Aggle losing the ball on downs with
!. in 6 inches of victory Like Norman,
. that was the only time the Aggies
reached striking distance of the goal,
although men on both sides on sew
eral occasions got away for good
gains that could have been scores,
keeping the situation constantly dan
gerous.
The only marring feature of the
game was too much wrangling over
the rules, which permitted the play
ers to cool off too much between
scrimmages and displeased the spec
tators However, the wrangling was
not greater than is sometimes seen
in larger games,
