ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS


|, Aurora won the toss and received
the ball on the kickoff but were
,downed after small gain. Ely
received the ball on tumble and
began their deadly march to the
goal line. Nicholas, quarterback
for Ely, made a thirty-yard end run
only to be called no good and Ely
was penalized for being off side.
ION the next play, Nicholas made
this up by another long end run.
With some line smashes and short
end runs they soon had the ball on
the: 2g-yard line. The next play
brought the first score of the game,
a pass, Nicholas to Sayovitz, and
Ely had a touchdown. Ely tried a
pass for the extra point but it was
incomplete. The rest of the quarter
was on even terms ending with Ely
leading so. Aurora came back
strong and made good gains around
the end and by center smashes.
-Colletti, the Aurora halfback had
Ely tacklers guessing when he
jumped them on their attempts to
bring him down. 1t was he who
made the first touchdown for Aurora
on an end run. The try for extra
point was short. At this time, Mer-
har was put in place of Toutloff and
Smrekar in place of Sayovitz. Ely
received on the kickoff and were
fighting to break the tie when the
Malt ended.
The next quarter found Ely eager
to win the game. Merhar was tear
ing holes in the Aurora line for big
gains but fumbled when they were
on the 30-yard line. Aurora fun
bled the ball on the next play and
Ely again began their march toward
the goal line. Nicholas making end
runs for big gains and Merhar going
through the line for his yards. The
ball was in scoring distance when
the quarter ended. Aurora frightened
up little and held Ely to less gains
but a pass, Nicholas to Indy,
brought the ball to the LIZARD line.
1t was a tumble on the next play
and Ely lost it's chance to score.
Aurora's punt from back of the
goal line was blocked by both of
Ely's ends and was recovered by
the same two. The extra point
was made with drop kick by Mer-
har. There was ten minutes of play
left, but Aurora was held without
any gains.
Today at o'clock, the stu
dents are to be given treat by be-
ing able to see the Tower football

COTTON DECLINES
AFTER ADVANCE
Early Run-up Offset in Later
Trading by Heavy
Selling.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 23.--After sell
ing up to 1921 for December or into
new high ground for the season, the
cotton market turned easier today
under week end realizing promoted
by prospects for clearing weather in
the South. December declined to 1898,
or points net lower, and closed at
that figure, the general market clos
ing barely steady at net declines of
2 to points.
The opening was firm at an ad-
vance of 10 to II points on q re-
newal of yesterdays buying move
ment, supposed to be based on the
rains reported in the South and in
creasing apprehensions of crop dam
age by boil weevil Liverpool did not
fully meet the local advance of Fri
day afternoon, but showed n suffi-
cient gain to suggest that the trade
there was more or less nervous over
coming crop prospects, and for a
time the demand locally was urgent.
October sold up to 1895 and Janu-
airy to 1925, new high records on
all active positions and net advances
of about ii to II points. There was
enough week end realizing to supply
buyers around these figures, how
ever, and as demand tapered off
rather a reactionary sentiment de.
veloped. Prospects for clearing
weather in the South probably in.
creased the disposition to take profits
on long cotton. and while selling
otherwise was said to be restricted
prices worked off Is to 90 points from
the best, October reacting to 1872
and January to 1903 in late trading.
Last prices were within a few points
Of the lowest, although there may
have been little buying in the last
few minutes on weather reports indf.
eating rather heavy rains in some
sections Of Georgia during the past
"a hours.
The official forecast was for gen.
orally clearing weather over Sunday
following further showers in some
sections tonight. and this was the
view of the outlook which appeared
to be taken by local map readers.
Some Southern selling was report.
ed mere during early trading, which
was said to include a little hedging
against prospective new crop receipts
The amount of cotton on shiphoard
awaiting clearance at the end of the
week was estimated at $4,000 bales
against $4,000 last year.
Private cables said speculative
buying and trade calling had been
supplied by realizing in the Liver.

STEEL TRADE QUIET;
COPPER ADVANCES
Tin Prices Irregular With
Lead Higher and Anti
mony in Demand.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, July 23.-While the
steel market for the most part con-
tinued quiet during the week, there
were some inquiries and actual plac-
ing OF new business outside Of the
routine events. Structural steel oper-
ations continued good. Some south
ern mills reported a slight increase in
output, due to Improvement In the
buying by the railroads of various &C.
cessories. Prices were maintained.
Copper advanced rather sharply and
sales of Electrolytic were reported at
10 cents, delivered at Connecticut Val
ley points. A decided change in buy
ing sentiment appears to have fol-
lowed the recent bullish statistics, and
it is understood that consumers have
taken substantial quantities at the
1884 and 12A cent levels during the
past week or 10 days. The strength
of London with higher markets for
other metals have been contributing
factors.
Tin prices were irregular. Early in
the week consumers were fair buyers
as the undertone averaged easy, but
later demand subsidized with an inn
provement in the price. London was
irregular.
| Lead advanced. Consuming demand

was said to have been the best in
many weeks. Some manufacturers
were sold for July and August.
Zinc was firm. Consumers were
good buyers. Reports of curtailment
Of output and the f1rmness of ore
were the factors mainly responsible
for the strength.
Anthony showed no improvement
as to actual business operations, but
with the activity in lead, the outlook
was said to favor a better demand.
Prices were steady.
