They worked it up to two measley yards and then big Ed ShirlinE, who played one of the greatest games of his career, bucked 1t over for the first Auburn score, and the only one. The little band of stanoh supporters in the stands went wild. The Tiger failed to kick goal from placement for the extra point.

 The Cadets, however, presented quite a great spectacle as they marched across the parade field with their drill formations and took seats in the eastern wing of the stands. It might be well to mention, how ever, that the gray-clad future gen erals gave rather boyish display at the end of the game when they rushed across the field and in a con glomerated formation gave the Au- burnites the razzberry.
 Looking Over Gotham
 The team members are in New York to enjoy the sights of the me tropolis for the first time tonight. As l am writing this they are down at the New Amsterdam applauding thoir hands off as they witness "The Follies." Mike Donahue, as game a loser as ever trod the earth, and a man who never offers alibis, has buried and forgotten the disappoint- nsent he suffered after having seen his team lead for three quarters. Mike has forgotten the defeat as hest he can, and has plunged in with the fervor of a real sport to forget for the time being and enjoy him. self over Sunday, realizing full well that lie must start planning and building Monday for next Saturdays encounter.
 The Auburn team and Alabama con tingent will remain over in New York until Sunday afternoon, when they will ship for home.
