The game resolved itself into a
track meet. and from every kickoff
the Roanoke backs were able 20
dash for from sixty to ninety Yards
for touchdowns. Almost every kick
off resulted in a touchdown. and
II the runner happened To he
downed on his way for a score the
next play resulted in n sure score
from a running play or a forward
pass. The academy lads naturally
failed to score a first down and
were never even considered as be-
ing in the game.
Spruhan's charges acquitted them
selves creditably in the North Caro-
na-State game. although they did
not win. The record of 1856 points
in a single game tops all other
Southern elevens.
Hite, for Roanoke, scored six
touchdowns; Caldwell. 4: Oakley, 4;
Yost, 8; Stevens, 3: Hurt, 2; Woods,
2: Smoot, 2; Conk and McClung, l

In four contests both Centre and
Auburn have totaled 1853 points. an
average of 39R points per game.
Georgia has scored 130 points this
season, while Washington and Lee
in three games has rolled up liz

There, is plenty of action in 81

PROHIBITION is BEING
ENJOYED SAYS HAYNES

The Federal Prohibition Director
for this state announces advices from
Washington to the effect that reports
to Commissioner Haynes, covering
every section of the country, includ-
ing Alaska, Hawaii and Porto Rico,
Iare uniform in indicating progress
in the way of constructive enforce
ment of the 18th amendment.
Commissioner Haynes writes that
|accumulative evidence entirely and
'conclusively disproves recent un-
founded statements of propagandists
works that are designed to deceive
the public, but which, in truth, have
settled the friends of enforcement
to closer cooperation and more con-
centrated activities.
"The facts are, says Commiss-
Toner Haynes, ''that real liquor for
beverage purposes is practically UNI
available, the bootlegger market is
diminishing daily, because of uni
versal fear of their poisonous prod
uct, the home brew fad is waning
and moonshiners are on the run, all
brought about by cutting off sources
of supply, cooperation on the part
of enforcement agencies of every
character, backed by crystalized pub
lie sentiment, an aroused press and
helpful cartoOnist, more convictions
by juries and sterner, sitter senten-
ICES by courts. The action Of Cham
Der of Commerce, Rotary, Kiwanis
and similar organizations, and prom
inent clubs in practically every state
is most significant and testifes in
'disputably that the people are en-
phatic in their desire for strict en-
forcement, and it is unnecessary to
state, that when America wills, Anne
rica's will prevails.
Perhaps the most encouraging
recent development is the manifest
alton of genuine cooperation on the
part of the police in large metro
politan centers. Such powerful for
ces, united in the campaign for con-
structive enforcement, is most sig
Inifcant.
''The 18th amendment is being en-
forced to greater extent than ever
dreamed possible, and is is a pleas
ure to commend the progress that is
being made in your state through
your excellent corps of officials"

from then on wasseldom in danger.
The hitting of the entire Kennesaw
team was the main feature of the
game. The Atco teams star pitcher,
Mr.. Jack Aikens, began to get shakey
in the second when McCutcheon, first
up, poled out home run over center
field, and the Kennesaw lads seemed
satisfied with this lone score, until
the seventh with three on the path,
Wright pasted one over right field
for a triple. Thenthe fire works
began and the entire Atco team was
unable to stop the slaughter.
Mr.. Cole succeeded in slapping one
over centerfield with the bases load
ed, and he being a ten second man
easily streached it into a homer. R.
Bohemian who cavorts around Ken
nesaw initial sack, did a few tricks
with the old willow, getting three
triples and two singles out of five
trips up.
Mr.. Buck Wheeler was Atco's out
standing star with the willow, get
ting two triples and a single out of
five trips to the bat, although he
booted four nice ones around the hot
corner, what he did with the bat
speaks for itself.
Then came the blood curdling ninth
when it looked as if Atco would tie
thing up, with one man scoring and
two on, Calling made a beautiful
stab in the center garden for the
second out. Allen, pinch hitting for
Reeves, whitfield at three of Robert
sons fast ones and the game was over.
