LETTER
 FOUND DISPLEASING
German Lutherans Up in Arms Throughout State at Insult

Members of St. Johns German Evangelical Lutheran church of thi. city are understood to be 'displeaset at letter received from a New Yorl
 brokerage house suggesting a cam. paign to sell short the French franc for the purpose of ruining French credit and bringing France to her knees"
 Rev. Martin w. Gaudian of the To- cal church admitted having received the letter, but said it receives scant courtesy at his hands. being con- signed to the waste basket without further consideration. Mir. Gaudian said he and his congregation are not in sympathy with any such move ments and that it is not anything that the Lutheran church could or would have anything to do with. He said it was un-Christianlike and not within the scope of the policies of the church.
 Other Lutheran ministers have stated that they have not heard of the propaganda but would not coun- tenance any such movement.
 It IS reported that heN. otlo T.. Heydenreich of the German Evan gelical Lutheran Trinity church of Hartford received one of the letters and that he is bitter against those responsible for involving the good name of the Lutheran church. F. H. Knubel, president of the United Lutheran church of America, is re- ported as very much up in arms con- corning the propaganda and repudt- ates the actions of those who would involve his church in such a pro- ceeding.
 A portion of the letter sent out reads in part: 'France aspires to the supremacy of Europe. Her army Is the largest In the world, Thous- ands of our brethren have left the folds of the church. Germany is being crushed by nation of another faith. Shall Lutheranism be crushed In the land where 1t was born? We have a weapon to prevent this" It then suggests the transaction of .'short selling" of francs.

OLE MISS E,OUT
FOR A. & M. SCALP
Big Game To Be Staged
At Jackson Fair
Saturday

UNIVERSITY, Miss. Oct. 10
(Special)-The whole athletic faculty of
Ole Miss has turned its energies toward
preparations for the annual game with
the Mississippi Aggies which is sched-
uled for Saturday at the state far
ground in Jackson. Skull drill lasted
well into the night last evening as
Coach Barnard explained his plays to
the squad.
The Ole Miss eleven has been hitting
stiff stride in the early days of the
week, and it is expected that the scrim-
maging will be discontinued with Thurs
days workouts. Light signal drills and
running of plays will very likely be the
grid menu until the game in Jackson.
Fans throughout the state are begin
ming to ''dope''out the possible winners
of the annual clash between the old
rivals; But the university coaches are
saying nothing and making no predic-
tions as to the outcome of the affair.
They are leaving it to the players and
have adopted the "wait and see atti-
tude.
Results of games played thus far do
not give either eleven very high claim
to conference honors. While Ole Miss
enjoys the distinction of being the only
eleven in the state to go through its
early schedule undefeated, the teams
met by the Red and Blue have not been
commensurately strong with the Aggies.
The Aggies, although defeated Saturday,
have a strong team, one of their best in
years, and there is no ground for sup
posing that they will present a weak
lineup in the big battle.
From preseason Cope there seems to
be little advantage for either team, and
each should have a fighting chance to
cop its first conference game Of the sea-
son at the expense Of state team.

some at the bouts.
"This show we have billed for Mon

will be given the fans should prove
unusually entertaining as there are
three ten-rOund bouts, one six-round
affair and a ten-round wrestling match
between Tom Lacey and Young Bar

made reservations for the all-star local
show, and we would be glad to see
others fall in line. as our bouts are
conducted in a thoroughly gentlemanly
manner and many refined and cultured
