SPRING HILL WILL MEET PLAINSMEN
 INV MONTGOMERY
Hillians Have Powerful At- tack and Expect to Make
 Good Showing Saturday


 Mobile. October 5.--(Special.) )-The interest of the football enthusiasts of this section is centering more and more of the Auburn Spring Hill game. which will take place Saturday at Montgomery. While the game Is looked upon by many as likely to present a rather one-sided proposi- tion, yet many others who have come to the conclusion that the Au- burn team after the loss of couple of its men and the injury which will deprive it of Ollinger, is not better than the University of Alabama. which seems to have found quite cap able successors to more of the men it lost. Therefore they are shaking their heads and saying that the game ought to be a close one after all, and that the outcome Is not certain by any means.
 To be sure, the Pldinsmen are fla vorites, rather heavy favorites, but a packers. To anyone who studied last Saturdays Alabama game carefully, play by play, it will be evident that the score does not tell true tale;- that the game was, especially during the first half. very even proposition with Spring Kill actually having slight advantage during the first two periods.
 Game of Strife
 The coming game will be one of strife. At least the names of several members coincide. Coach Mike" Donohue of Auburn will send his team against team coached at least in part by Billy" Donohue. Russell Moulton for Auburn will be in the game against his brother. Pat Moulton. for Spring Hill. and, strange to say. each one does the kicking for his eleven Then there is{Rhod- ney Ollinger for Auburn and Ellis ol- finger for Spring Hill, although the latter has not yet made the Hillians' regular team.
 The strength of the Spring. Hill backs against the Auburn line will be q very important factor in this game The Hillians have Captain Winling, Lappington and Keoughan as first-rate subs.
 winiing showed by his gains against the Alabama line that he is very hard to stop, while Brinskelle and Davis. although much lighter than their captain, are very fast men. on to all the tricks of the game, and hard to catch and hold.
 Rogue Has the Stuff
 Bogue showed In Saturdays game. when under his handling the Hillians carried the ball twice to their ad- versaries one-yard line, and once actually over the goal. only to be called back on penalty, that he Is able to conduct a strong offensive with the materials he has at hand and also to help in 1t himself, for he made several excellent runs.

POPE IS ON STAND
 FOR ONE HOUR IN
 HIS OWN DEFENSE
Defense Began Its Argument on a Motion for An h. structed Verdict in De-
 fendant'S Favor
By Associated Press

Jacksonville, Fla, October 5.--John stand today In his own behalf at his trial on a charge of murder in the first degree. The defense announced 1t had no other witness and began It's argument on a motion for an in structed verdict in favor of the de- fendant.
 The argument had not been con cluded when the case went over ptil tomorrow. The state rested early Tn the afternoon session.
 Pope was on the stand less than an hour He denied unequivocally that he had any knowledge of the impending robbery of the Palace the atre here the night of September 4 by Frank Rawlins, who shot and killed George H. Hickman, manager of the playhouse. Pope admitted he had very probably been at certain places described by states witnesses when he borrowed their car on the night of the killing that he and Raw lins were going to stick up" the theatre.
 His story was to the effect that he was a victim of circumstances. He had defended Rawlins and w. c. Nell ton at their trial on a grand larceny charge. Melton was arrested in con- nection with the present case but dis charged after grand jury investi- gation, and, so far as known, left the city immediately. Neither Rawlins nor Melton had ever paid him any thing because of lack of money. Pope said. On the night of the killing Pope testified that Rawlins told him he had learned that Melton had re- ceived some money from his sister
 He asked that Pope come with him and he would make Melton pay Pope something for two of them. the de- fendant continued. Rawlins had the impression that NYelton acquiring some money, had gone under cover" Pope said. Rawlins suggested they get Novitzky's automobile as he didn't know where Melton was, and Pope said he obtained the use of the car and then drove to a downtown poolroom, the location of which Is one block behind the theatre and enc block west. Rawlins went in the Sedrcn or MellOn ana returned In a few minutes. saying he lived up the street about a block. and Pope de- clared they then drove to a point a little more than a crock to the rear of the theatre. There, Rawlins again sought to find Melton, Pope testified but after waiting considerable time he said. probably three quarters of an hour or an hour. getting out of the car frequently as he became im- patient for Rawlins to return. Pope declared he finally drove back to the poolroom in an effort to learn what became of Rawlins. Later he said he returned the automobile to it's owners. He never met Rawlins again until they were arraigned together on the charge of murder. he averred. disclaiming having ever before seen the pistol. mask and torn pieces of a towel, taken from Rawlins when he was arrested.

Is well remembered from his excel lent showing last year, especially in the Thanksgiving game, and the same holds for Keoughan, while Lappington is big heavy man and has shown up exceedingly we'll in the practices.
 Altogether the collegians have an excellent back field, and should be able to make a fine impression, even upon the formidable Auburn line. And on their strength depends in a large degree the kind of showing the Hill Hans will make against their power ful antagonists.

LOCAL DEALINGS

Neither L. G.. |. Nor Rapid

night Developments

There was a larger volume Of bust.
ness in the local stocks today, but the
increased dealings brought a Corre-
spending irregularity in price move
ment. The market followed much the
pattern set by the big board with fur
ther price shading ut the outset with
subsequent material rallies.
Several interesting overnight devcl.
opmcnts claimed the attention of the
street without having any effect to
speak OF in connection with the move
ment of the stocks thus affected. Phil
adelphia Rapid Transit, for instance.
at the outset suffered dip to 1915. or
within 5s Of the low price of the year, on
the announcement of the policy of the
management TO push profits back into
the property for much needed improve
ments thereby dismissing the prospects
of resumption of dividends this year.
The stock, however soon rallied aud
was easily carried back to last nights
closing level.

STRONGER front
SHOWN BY MARKET
Most Active Stocks Seemed to
Have Found.a Strong
Bottom

New York. June 21.-Today's stock
market, while irregular, put up a much
sitter front and there was every indi-
cation that the liquidating movement.
for the time being at least, had spent
its force. At any rate there was a
much better absorption capacity, indi-
Gated in the heavy turnover Of the first
hour of approximately 1000 shares
which included belated liquidation at
the opening and considerable volume
of short covering, The fact alone that
the market was in position to digest
this unusually large volume of trans
actions within that period, was ample
proof solid bottom had at last been
found. Considerable fcverishness at.
tended the rallies, which. however, was
II natural aftermath of the violent de
ciincS of the recent sessions. For the
first time in many weeks, nevertheless,
the line of least resistance was en-
cOuntorcd on the upward rather than
on the downward swings.
The urgent demand Tor the stocks
reported in the loan crowd after the
closing yesterday, with many of the
active shares loaning fat. alone fore
shadowed technical rally, but the only
cal incentive for Il recovery was sup
piled in the , per cent renewal rate for
CulI lOHuS WHICH was lut lowest
rate since October -. 1919. 1t was
recognized much depended upon the
position of those interests whose names
have been frequently mentioned and
whether further liquidation would be
necessary. There was some belated
selling at the opening, partly due to
the inability or unwiIlingncsS to meet
marginal calls. and which brought many
additions during the early trading in
the long list Of low records.
BY the end of the first fifteen min
uteS it was evident not only did the
market enjoy concerted powerful sup
port, but there was also Il notable Ces
sation OF liQuidating pressure all around
the room, This influenced some hur-
ried covering of the shorts and there
was a good rally, which lasted through
the first hour. Rails, equipments. ship
ping, motor and oil shares led the re-
bound. Northern Pacific rose almost 3
points and gains of | to lla points
