Both Line and Backfield Going Good, and A. and M.
 Is Confident

Starkville. october 20.-(SpeciaL)- Coach Holtcamp is whipping his squad into tiptop shape for the com ing game with Tulane in New Orleans Saturday. The squad will be In the pink of condition, and Coach Holt- kamp is not leaving a single ,weak spot untouched. Weaknesses discov- cred in the game with the Mississippi college "Choctaws" last Saturday will be thoroughly worked over In order to send against Tulane the strongest lineup representing the Mississippi "Aggles" In years. The "Aggies' are yet undefeated this season, and their supporters are very confident of a championship team. The outcome oi Saturdays game will weigh very heavy upon the success of the Ia rooms season.
 Last season the Aggies journeyed all the way to New Orleans very con fident of a victory over Tulane, nd returned with their balloon of hopes bursted One touchdown was a handicap the Maroons could not over come The "Maroons" will entrain this season for the Crescent City expecting to return with victory in their hit-and-run bag. but they ex- pect a real battle from Coach Fuller's warriors.
 Little in Fine shape.
 The Aggies have three victories to their credit without q defeat this "ea- son, and among the victories hey hn red CciY p- taws," who defeated Tulane the first game of the season, 14-0. In the back field the "Maroons" have all of last years mainstays. Capt Judge @l4it- tie. playing left half, is worthy" of an all-southern berth this season, and will lead the Aggie offense. Big Boy" McGowan, the 210-pound f H. back, Is going like house afire this season. His forward passing and line plunging is unsurpassed. Hough, Da- vis Parker. Clark and Cameron gre other backs who deserve much credit for their work.
 Line Light. But Fast.
 The 'Aggie" forwards are rather light, but exceedingly fast set. Min yard and McKinzie have proven themselves terrors to opposing back f.dIds. They were the only boys who caused the famous Riggs Stevenson any worry last season in the Az gie"- Alabama game; the boys who stopped the progress of Coat Hale in last Saturdays fray with Missis- sippi college; the boys who will make themselves known to Tulane backs nex: saturday The end positions will be taken care of by ex-Captain Henly. Taylor. Noble and Bell. The Maroons always have had pair of noteworthy tackles. Barnett and Lowe arc no exceptions to the rule They will be aided by Gatchel and Wilson at center.
 The team will leave the college accompanied by 10C or more eager elir,pOrterS

 Mrs. GaEt in Form

New Orleans city champion. and l, after having been four down at the turn. Mrs. Williams was winner over the Fort Worth representative. Mrs. Wyatt Hedrick,42 3 up. and Mrs. Beck defeated Miss Christine Tate, Mem phis, 2 and 1.
 Mrs. Gaut's wonderful playing en- abled her to be safe against defeat, although her opponent. Miss Mayer, went out in 48, which would have given her victory easily in many of the matches. The Memphis cham pion, however, took only 43 on the first nine holes and then proceeded to win the next three.

 Splendid Putting
 Mrs. Gaut whose 43 was the low est for the first nine holes thus far in the tournament, electrified the gallery by her work on the greens. She seemed to regain her accuracy which had been somewhat lacking in the earlier matches, and was able to negotiate 12 greens in IS butts. On the first, second, third. sixth, ninth and twelfth she required but one putt. She sank one of 10 feet on No. ?, but the others were of mod crate length due to her splendid ap- preaching. Both players were good in driving and Mrs. Gaut had but little advantage until the cups were ap- preached. Mrs. Lowndes had an up- hill battle with Miss Dwyer. as the Atlantan got off to a bad start. After going out in 50 Mrs. Lowndes made a fine rally and came back in AZ, which is one stroke better than wom- ems part on the last nine. The 92 was lowest score made In the tourna- ment. The New Orleans player took 46 and 51.
 Mrs. Hedrick had Mrs. Williams four down once in their match, but while the Fort Worth woman was performing brilliantly at times she was also cratic, and Mrs. Williams squared the match on the fourteenth hole and went one up on the fif- teenth. Mrs. Hedrick, with a won- derful brassie. shot to the sixteenth, squared 1t with a par five after which Mrs. Williams took the next two holes and the match.
 Mrs. Beck, Georgia state cham pion, turned one up on Miss Tate, only to have the Memphis woman square 1t on the eleventh green. The con test was still even through No. IS. but the Georgia player won the six teenth and seventeenth. and won. 2 and l.

PROBABLE LINE-UPs
 FOIL TODAY,s CAVE

One of the three all-important prep c6 ntests of the season, from a Bir- mingham standpoint, will take place this afternoon, when the Yellow Jackets of Ensley will try to stop the Purple Tigers of Bessemer at Rick wood park this afternoon From standpoint of public interest and good, hard football this game should be one of the greatest of the local prep season.
 This year the two teams will enter battle with neither a decided favor jte to win. Bessemer, while possess sing q strong team, is not thought to be as strong as In other years, while Ensley Is thought to have a team at least as good as that of last season.
 Game Begins at 3 O'Clock
 Today's game will begin promptly at 3 o'clock. A record crowd Is ex- pected to be on hand, as. aside from the Intense rivalry between the two student bodies, public interest in the affair is great.
 high type of football is always displayed at these contests, the prep affairs between Central, Ensley ana Bessemer.
 In Jack uovator and Red Harris coaches of Ensley and Bessemer, re- specttyely, the two schools have two of the most competent athletic di- rectors in prep circles. Hovater IS an old Alabam man. while Harris Is an old Auburn player.
 Different Styles
 Hovater and Harris usually employ the styles of play used by their re- spective alma matters. Hovater last season, his first at Ensley. had the double line shift brought to Ala bama by Ken c. Scott. as well as the forward passing system used at Ala bama. A highly developed offensive with fast, shifty line, were the chief characteristics of the Jacket machine.
 At Bessemer, tho husky, hard charging line is usually tower of strength, while heavy fine plung- ing usually features the back field. While forward passes are used ex- tensively at times, there Is little genuine open play. speedy rushes and air-tight defense usually pulling the Tigers through to victory
 Both squads are In fairly good shape for the game today The line ups given above will probably be the ones to start the game this aft ernoon. n
 The game begins promptly at o'clock. Tickets will be on sale al the gate at Rickwood park.

BANKS OWNED By HOME PEOPLE
More Than 95 Per Cent of Bank Stock
Held by Residents OF County.

The annual reports to the county
assessor show that more than 95 per
cent of the stock in the twenty-one To-
peka and Shawnee county banks is
owned by home people. OF the S55
stockholders, S12 are residents of the
county. The returns show that no one
man owns a monopoly on the stock in
any bank, and that few persons who
own stock in one back own any in an
other.
These conditions have kept Topeka
business steady during the last few
years when other cities have oc-
casionally experienced financial
troubles. Topeka bankers have a per-
sonal acquaintance with most of their
customers and, therefore, are enabled
to meet The financial needs CT the
