Fierce Battle Staged, With Ball See Saving Across
 The Field

SEwANEE. Tenn, Sept. 22:-(Spe- IciaI)-Sewanee and Carson-NeWman battled 55 minutes to a scoreless tie this afternoon in the first game or the season for the Tigers.
 The contest was fierce throughout the ball see-sawing up and down the field, first in possession of one side. then with the other. In the second quarter the Tigers gave tine eN- hibition of the Sewanee spirit when they turned back the Baptists atter the ball had been advanced to the four-yard line on a recovered fumple and two forward passe
 Several tries at drop s by Car son-Newman were br9l, up by the Tigers, and Sewanee's bn-y attempt in that line went wide. In the fourth quarter the Tigers started a rally that took them 50 yards ID the field by line plunges and short forward passes, only to lose the pail on an intercepted forward pass on Carson Newman's 37-yard line. The Tigers then held in their own 45-yard line, and the game ended as Gibbons passed 10 yards to Miller with Se- vance in possession of the ball on Carson -Newmans 20-yard line.
 The game was marred by frequent fumbling, on both sides. captain Hutchins and Left End Higgins for Carson-Newman worked a number of pretty passes for substantial gains, while Heinie Powers and Harris passed to Miller and Gooch for much yardage. Sanders out-punted Abbott by many yards. Green Benton suf- fered 8 broken leg in the second quarter, and will probably be out for the remainder of the season, while Gooch sprained an ankle, which will keep him out for several gsMes' Summary:

Pride
BY BERTON BRALEY

BY BER1 ON bhALE1
You're proud of your city, its CON-
merce and trade,
It's palaces splendid, its avenues
wide,
The traffic that moves in an endless
parade,
The skyscrapers rising in arrogant
pride;
The shops and the theaters brilliant
and gay
But have you a place for the chill
dren to play?
You're proud OF your city, you justly
acclaim
It's wealth and its beauty, its
power and might,
You boast of its progress, you speak
Of its fame.
You view 1t with wonder and
spell-bound delight;
It's magic enfolds you wherever you
stray,
Butts there a place for the chill
dren to play?
The children-tomorrow YOUR city
is THEIRS,
And how shall 1t be in the days
still to come,
If these, who must manage a city's
affairs
Grow up in the mean Shiny streets
of a slum?
oh, put all your pride in your city
away,
Unless you have place for the chill
dren to play!

Stupidity
Richmond Itenj

Indiana is behind a good many
other states in It's treatment Of the
great white plague. And Indiana is
paying the cost of it's stupidity.
For it is a stupid policy not to see
what is plain enough to most pro-
gressive American States, today. The
bust is the cheapest. in hes-lth matters.
A quack will treat his patients at
much less, per visit, than good
doctor charges But the man who
goes to the man who knows his
business always saves money by It,
in the end.
And just the same thing Is true OF
the money spent by any community
in fighting a dangerous infectious
disease 1t is not how much we spend
but what the community gets for
what 1t does spend. that really mat
ters.
The plan that gives the biggest
and best results, for every dollar
spent, is always the best. And that
is Just what we in Wayne county
should understand, in spending our
money in the fight against tubercu-
losis.
Better spend little more IN one or
two years, IL it means real saving
Of money in the next ten years.
