FLoRIDA-cARoLINA
GAME IN TAMPA

Tampa, Nov. 2.-Seats went on sale
yesterday, and with enthusiasm over
the FIorida-Carolina game here Sat
urday at high pitch because of Flor
ida's magnificent showing against
Howard, the early rush exceeded al
expectations. Only the auto spaces
remain available, but as these are
500 box seats, it viii take a few days
to clean them out
In blanking the AIabamans, the
Gators did what both Auburn and
Alabama U. have been unable to do.
The Howardians scored a touchdown
against the State U. and field goal
against the powerful Plainsman ma
chine of Mike Donahue.
Against Florida they were able to
make just one first down and were
never endangering the Gator goal
line.
F1orida's five touchdowns, and It
might have been more had not Coach
Kline used two or three shifts, espe-
cially using green men IN the final
period, represents the same offensive
power that both Alabama and Auburn
displayed.
Florida showed an impregnable de-
tense against both line plays and the
heralded wealness-forward passes.
Carolina hasa great passing team It
i said, and this news from Howard
is especially good news TO Gator
rooters. Carolina meanwhile added
more laurels last Friday, walking of
with the annual state championship
game with Clemson BY the comfort
able margin Of three tOuchdowns.
With Dixon at the mainspring in
the backfeld, calling the signals, as
well as playing fullback, reports from
Howard say the tactics of the Florid-
ians were much better and productive
Of a greater range Of power and espe-
cially when it was needed.
The game here Saturday win be
called at 2:45 O'Clock and there Is
room for 1000 people IN the grand
stand. The gates VIII open at one
o'clock.
Cardinals colors are garnet and
black. Florida's are orange and blue.

At our last meeting we agreed to
assist Marion county IN building road
No. 2 across that county, by furnish
ing camp of convicts and certain
equipment. 1t is my opinion that the
department has not gone far enough
in this matter. / recommend that the
department give its pledge to COM
plete this roaG across the county,
when the county shall have spent,
under the supervision of the depart
ment, the fund it now has to aid in
the building of this road, and that
the chairman be Authorized to enter
into a contract to this effect with the
county.
The portion of road No. in CoIum-
bia county, extending from Lake City
to High Springs, is highly important
link in the chain of roads we are now
building. Indeed. the building of this
piece Of road is necessary to enable
the people living south of Lake City
to get the full benefit of the work we
are doing north and east of Lake City.
The construction of this piece of road
should be started at the earliest pos
sible moment. I, therefore, recon-
ment that the chairman be authorized
to commence work on this hoad and
use all available means necessary to
its speedy construction.
The department is about to COM
plete the grade on a portion OF road
No. 2 extending from DeLeon Springs
north to the Putnam county line. The
DeLeon Springs-Beville special road
and bridge district of Volusia county
has So, ,333. .33 per mile to spend in
completing the base on this road, and
this money has been deposited to our
credit with the state treasurer.
In accordance with the terms of a
special act Of the legislature, | enter
ed into a contract with the Volusia
county commissioners to expend this
money in doing the work. We are
preparing to advertise for bids on
this work and recommend that l be
authorized to let a contract for the
work. This work is to be paid for
entirely out of the above named fund.
We have completed the grade on
federal aid project No. Is ON road No.
8, Cisco to the Volusia county line IN
Putnam county. A special road and
bridge district Of that county has
about $1,000 per mile TO spend on this
project. We are arranging with the
4 authorities of that county to place
this money to our credit with the
state treasurer and are preparing to
advertise for bids on this work. Full
details as to this project viii be fur
nished. Provision should be made
for letting the contract on this work.
On the road between Lake City and
Il High Springs we had vacant camp
i located. In order to get the second
grade conviets out Of Raiford as
quickly as possible, placed a force
OF them in this camp and they are
j being organized. into working force.
| In Marion county we have selected
place for the camp and expect to
move into that county a convict force

and Putnam counties We viii move
