bumps were highest, the truck
driver remarked, He's seen

anything to do with it.
The defendant didn't seem to
be- particularly interested in

cared for, apparently, was get

the old man, and as soon as he
came down from the last bounce
he put on the brakes and kid

veteran.
We ran out and picked him
up from the center of New Jer-

the engine house and laid him
on a bench. Then we phoned
the police, hospital and morgue.
He was lying there on his back
with his jaw sagging down on
his chest, and breathing like

minutes, as the old man seemed
to be getting worse, we gave
him a drink Of BRASS polish. It
was the only blessed thing we
could find, except water, and

Same Lineup Will Start For Auburn
 Against Baptists

 Auburn's definite lineup couldn't be had on the eve of the game. Coach Pitts intimated during the early part of the week that number of new faces might be seen in the starting team but later reports have it that practically the same lineup that faced the Virginia Poly team last Saturday would open against the invaders. A number of those that have started in the three games already played have not been in the scrimmages very much this week.
 Probable Line Ups
 The most probable lineup will be Lawrence, center; Brice and McFadden, guards; Harkins and Sitz, tackles; Ol- finger and Pruitt, ends; Petersen, quar- ter;. Green and Williams, halves, and Salter; fullback. Two Auburn fresh- men teams were in games off the cam pus Friday afternoon.
 The second squad in charge of Cap tain Pick, left this morning for We tumpka and reports from the Aggie village indicate that the Orange and Blue Freshies were victorious in an Is to score with the Wetumpka Az gies.

CRIMSON FROSH
 DEFEAT MARION
Hammer And Brown Star In Baby Tides
 Victory

UNIVERSITY. Ala. Oct. 17.-(Spe- ciall-Dick Hammers frequent out bursts of speed were the sole mretty events of the 26-O victory gained DS the Baby TidesmeD in their opening clash against Marion institute today.
 The freshman quarterback led his teammates to victory against the Marion Cadets iii a game that was aI- most listless and slightly interesting.
 For one period, the Cadets held the Baby Tidesmen free from their goal line, but a touchdown was scored early in the second period. It came about when Hammer intercepted a pass and gained on two end runs followed by a buck by Hancock. Hammer kicked goal.
 In the half, 20 yard run by Red" Brown just as the half ended also fea- tured. It was through Brown and Hammer that the Baby CrimSons had kept the ball in Marion's territory.
 Brown and Hammer scored a touch down as the third quarter opened when Brown returned the kick off AS yards, Hammer gained around a flank, and a pass from Brown to Hammer netted 30 yards. They continued ftheir efficient work and scored another one few mo- ments later. The last one was made by Holder on series of brilliant runs and a pass from Pepper to Mershon.
 Marion looked pitifully weak on the defense. Both teams were frequently Offside anu penalized for tripping and other faults. The Freshman eleven looked as weak as the Marion eleven did in the first half. but showed the result of Coach Van de Graaf's talk in the second.

AUBURN, Ala, Oct. 17.-(Special.) ] The final practice by the Auburn Tiger preparatory to the game with the How ard Bulldog was concluded late Friday afternoon and all is in readiness for the game with Coach Gillems' Baptist eleven, which is booked to start at 2 80 Saturday afternoon. Fridays practice session was held on the new freshman field. while Drake field was being sprinkled for Saturdays melee.
 The workout consisted mainly of kick ing practice after the usual signal drill. Considerable emphasis was being paid t. formations for returning kick offs. The squad with one exception appears to be in excellent condition for the game with the Bulldogs. Sheridan, who has been Quartered at end in some of the workouts this week, is suffering from a sprained ankle and will not participate against the East Lakers.
 The officials as announced by the ath- ietic authorities today for the Auburn Howard game will be Moriarity, St. Mery's: Cheeves, University of Geor- gia, and Lebcy. Georgia Tech.

 Wade arrived with the following men Captain Hubert, Hudson, Caldwell. Johnston. McClintock, Buckler, Lang horne, Perry, Camp, Jones, Oliver, Compton, Propst, Holmes, Brown, Barnes, Gillis, Whitaker, Rosenfeld Cohen, Morrison, Winslett, Ennis, Pick hard, Halmon, Hussey, Martin and Newton.

The fans will also be requested to arise at given signal from the ref cree and stand while the players pause on the field in their minute memorial service.
 Both teams will send their complete first lineup on the field with one ex- ception in the Crimson array.

HOLDS
 TIGERS TO 12-O
Fumbles And Penalties Mar Conflict At Besse-
 mer Stadium

Bessemer defeated the husky Shades Cahaba eleven Friday afternoon at the Bessemer stadium, F to 0, in one of the hardest fought games of the season thus far. Over anxiety on the part of both teams prevailed and the game was marked with fumbles and penalties, making it long drawn out affair.
 Bessemers first tally was made in the second quarter on a blocked punt by the Mountaineers, Parsons falling on the ball behind their goal but failed to kick goal. The half ended with Shades Cahaba in possession of the ball on their own 3O-yard line.
 In the thisa quarter. with Harris and Granger in for the Tigers, little more spirit was shown and several first downs were made, which were of lit tie value, however, because of fumbles. Two pretty runs were made in this pe- riod by Harris and Moses, each for about 15 yards. In the last of the third and during the fourth quarter, COsper demonstrated exceptional ability for broken field runs. making four, which averaged about B yards each.
 Shades -Cahaba showed more fight than the Tigers expected, and repeat edIy gained through the heavy Besse- mer line. McNeil and StOutenborOugh were stars of Bessemer's defense.

.CRSON- NEWMAN
 AGAIN INSPECTED

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. IT, With all differences settled by mutual agreement and complete list of foot ball players exchanged between athle- tic heads for inspection as to eligibility of players thereon, Tennessee and Car son-Newman football teams will meet here tomorrow. It is a renewal of athletic relations after three years lay off.
 The Carson-Newman lineup is ex- pected to be affected by the right of Tennessee officials to strike off any player who fails to abide by rules of a contract drawn up between the two schools. It is said that from three to six men will be ineligible under the contract

right guard for Sewanee, is the only man who will start the game will weigh POO pounds. On the 'Bama line Buck Ter, Compton, Propst Jones and Lang horne will all weigh 200 or over. The Purple backfield will also be lighter than the Crimson and as for speed it is very likely th0t the Alabama backs can as a whole show its iIeels to the Tigers.
 With Ben Hudson and McClintock slated to start the game at end for the Crimsons, the problem seems to have been temporarily settled by Coach Wade as to flankmen. Jones, who started at end in the Furman game, is slated to open at guard.
 0 Perry and Gooch, two of the shining lights of the Purple defense, are play ing the flank positions and they will be called on repeatedly to stop the flashy end runs of Mack Brown, Gillis and Barnes. The Alabama backs dis played diversified attack on the Fur man eleven and it is probable that the Crimsons will again spring some new stuff on the Tigers.
 To Play Passing Game
 With their pass snagging ends the aerial for Sewanee has proven profit able. It was by means of their passes that they were able to make their great showing against Texas A. and NJ. Flushed with success of the passing game, it is probable that the Tigers will open up with the same tactics Sat urday.
 With their pass flinging, however the Purple warriors invite interception by the fleet 'Bama backs and the subse quent probability of touchdown.
 The odds in betting is far from stable and is guaged solely by the bettors' en- thusiasm and not by dope for there isn't any.
 The Alabama band will be in full swing when the game gets under way and the Sewanee supporters will likely have a rival band in their stands.

TORNADO BEATS
 UNIVERSITY HI
GamecOcks Threaten In First Period, But
 Lose 200

The Purple Tornado of Simpson blew strong at times Friday afternoon and the Purple-iersie Gamecocks of Uni verSity High went down in defeat, 20 to 0. Two touchdowns, resulting from long runs, and one touchdown from a forward pass were responsible for the victory turned in by the Junior Pan thers.
 The Gamecocks threatened most se- riousIy in the first quarter when they threw a scare into the Simpson ranks. The University elan made two marches down the field with little Mike Grabin doing the major portion of the ground gaining. but were unable to continue their drive for a touchdown. Once they battled under the shadow of the Tor nado's goal posts, but an attempted forward pass was knocked in their final attempt to score.
 The first Simpson counter came a fews minutes later. Simpson got the ball ne%r mid-field and Johnson broke away for neat jaunt off tackle and ram bled over the goal line as a University back finally brought him to the ground.
 Tornado Counts Again
 The Junior Panthers counted again in the second StanZa. This time they started their drive from near mid-field and Vincent slipped just off tackle for long sprint which carried the ball to the 5-yard marker. Here they buck ed it over with Riberts carrying the ball.
 Simpson pushed over another touch down in the third period. The Torna- do backs carried the ball on off tackle plays down near the University goal line, where the GamecOcks stopped their attack. A forward pass was completed, however, and then Johnson bucked over for the third score.
 Simpson threatened again in the stopped the attack near their goal line. aerial attack in a late attempt to score. ried the ball to mid-field, but the final whistle halted further activities.
 Johnson was the shining light of the Simpson backfield, his long run for touchdown and his smashing standing out. Vincent performed well, while Malloy and Lott, on the Tornado for Waru wall, WllHSlOOu most OI the Odme- cocks offensive. Tyler and Beasley showed up well, while Mclaughlin, Simpson quarterback, ran the Junior Panther eleven in excellent style,
 Grabin And McNally Star
 Mike Grabin was the big offensive star for tine GamecOcks, this squirming lad accounting for the major portion of the University gains. His runs around end and off tackle were good, and at the beginning of the struggle it looked bad for Simpson. However, his defense was not up to standard. Berry McNally starred at end for the Game cocks, his defensive play standing out Housman, on the other wing, and Wood halfback, also p performed in fine fashion in the defensive role. Mccoy, at quar- ter. turned in l. good game.
 The line-ups and summary follows:
