DRISCOLL STRONG
 IN SPRING HILL
 FOOTBALL PLANS

With only five days left before the opening game with Mercer, Coaches Ducote and Donahue are rapidly whipping the Spring Hill Badgers into shape. Tho coming week will see the coaches polishing the team up on both the offensive and defensive work. The past week has seen the team put through a series of scrimmages against the freshman team and they looked to be n formidable outfit to face the Mercer Bears, Dixie conference champions of last year. The pros- poets are brighter than they have been in quite few seasons and Spring Hill looks forward to q very succ egsful year on tho gridiron. Ray Driscoll, of Waterbury, who for the past two seasons has been hampered by injuries has at last come into his own. Although one of tho smallest men out Ray hits the line with all the power and drive of c larger man and k also rated one of the hardest and surest tacklers on the team.
 His play backing up the line has assured him q place in the backfeld where he is also being groomed for the quarterback position. The Badgers have as coaches two of the outstanding figures in southern football. Moon" Ducote. who starred as a player at Spring Hill, Auburn, and the Cleveland Naval Reserves and coached at Spring Hill, Louisiana State and Loyoia of New Orleans, returns to the school where he got his start in the game. Mike" Donahue, Yale '04. coach at Auburn from 1905 to 1929. and Louisiana State from '22 to '26, where Ducote was his assistant. Mike" has been at Spring Hill since '29 as athletic director.

SMALL ADVANCES
Market Rallies in Second
Part of Session Alter
Early Decline.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

special DlSpatCn 10 Inc Star.
NEW YORK, August pa sharp
break IN sterling and lower quotations
for the franc brought selling into the
stock market at the start today, but
prices came back in the second half
of the session and the close was a
shade higher on the day.
The market succeeded in shaking off
The influence of the exchanges and in
Ignoring the reaction in commodities
Wheat closed Ia to Il. cents a bushel
lower and in the late afternoon cotton
was off half a dollar a bale. Most of
the staple markets were heavy all day,
but bulllsh sentiment predominated in
the stock maIket
Three Variables Seen.
Prices for leading issues averaged a
POINT or two lower during the morning.
The selling. which was not in large VOL
ume and not pressed. was plainly the
result Of the action of the dollar in the
fo-elgn exchange market. Serling
opened on this side down cents and
French francs were off IA points. That
seemed TO put quiCtus Oh the talk of
currency imitation IN the United States
lor the present at least. and deprived
the stock market of such support as
tncse rumOr5 gave to it last week
That was the surface explanation. 1t
might be, however. that the exchanges
themselves were influenced by the weak
ne~s IN the pound. measured in francs,
and the coltts freely expressed but rot
reflected in the quotation as to the per-
nanency Of thn g-li standard in France.
In other words. the exchange traders
had three variables with which to
struggle.
Stocks were heavy but not weak for
the first two hours. but around noon
time began to rally under the leadership
OF General Motors, which pushed ahead
to new high for the year Du Pont
rallied with motors and the whole list
was stimulated
b. e. o. Earnings Cited.

l to points had been registered by a

Delaware & Hudson. LackaWanna. New
York Central and Atchison we're lower,
but Chesapeake & Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania made stout resistance
For the most part the July railway
earning statements appearing today
were favorable. Atchison was an eX-
ception as it has been for some time
back. due TO the crop conditions in It's
territory. Both July gross and July net
were below those Ct a year ago. On the
other hand, Baltimore & Ohio reported
sweeping gains. II round numbers B.
G. O.'s July gross was up from SO 300 900
in 1882 to S13450000 this July. and net
advanced from Sl640000 in 1882 to
