Get Centre—Remember Last PT 3nphs> umsnum Stay Behind the Tiger of the Plains VOL. XXVI. AUBURN, ALABAMA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1922. Not 4 CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES SOAR HIGH ON EVE OF BATTLE WITH CENTRE Auburn Smothers Tulane's Green Wave In First Half Tulane's Green Wave, moving swiftly, rolled into Cramton Bowl last Saturday with the lunar tide in an endeavor to drown the mighty Auburn Tiger. Fair Lady Moon, who has so long held sway over the wondrous waters presented only her facial profile late the night after this agua from the gulf had failed in its attempt. The Tiger bathed in the Wave's emerald glossiness and his stripes glistened in the light of the half moon as he wandered back to await the coming of Red Roberts and friends. Eight thousand people saw Auburn down Tulane 19 to 0. SaW Auburn play in excellent form during the first half, saw the Plainsmen ripple back the wave and score nineteen points and then saw Tulane's defense stiffen and their offense gather new life with which they collected ten first downs, only to be stopped when they neared the Tigers' goal. - Many people were more or less .astonished at the complete reversal of form shown by the Auburn eleven in the last half after they had seemingly scored at will in the first. With all due respect to the fighting team from New Orleans, for they certainly did scrap, we do know that the Plainsmen slackened up. This is not necessarily an alibi for the score could have been larger undoubtedly. Tulane came back all right and came back strong, but remember we played Georgia the week before and Centre is tomorrow, and the sun had no pity for the combatants in the concrete arena. But the score is not to be harped on. Everything went true to expectations; all are satisfied and if you missed the game, why the boys played merely in form at first and then took a much deserved relaxation. Fuzzy Woodruff said so; Zip Newman said so; Sheehan said so, and one or two Crescent City Editors knew it but said nothing. They are ready for action now, and Centre's attack tomorrow will have to be centered on not any one or two men, but eleven scrapping, snarling, undaunted Tigers. But on with the Tulane ~Story*",teHiorrow's sun may never glimmer. - Slick Moulton started the water flow kicking off ten yards past Tulane's goal, which was the north one. The Greenies were held for downs and they kicked to Shir-ling, who fumbled, and Reed for Tulane recovered. Tulane was forced to punt again and then Captain Shirey gave the spectators their first thrill with a run around left end for 35 yards. The ball rested on Tulane's 16 yard line, until the next play, when Ford hit center for five. Shirling registered three over tackle, Ford three more in the same manner; then Ed went over for the first touchdown. Moulton kicked goal. This all happened within five minutes and it took only three more to do it again. After the next kickoff to Tulane the Tigers gained possession of the ball on the Wave's 30 yard line. It was Ford 11 yards, Shirey 8, Shirling 7 and Ford the remaining 4, all through the line. At this point it wasn't so much due to the backs' ability to hit, altho they can, but the Tiger forwards were rolling back the Wave in unison. It was a line—a true Auburn line. In the second quarter Howe made the third and last touchdown of the entertainment. Auburn held the ball on Tulane's 42 yard line. Shirey went five through center, then Auburn received a penalty of 20 yards for -holding. All the ground lost, however, was regained on the next play when Shirling hurled a pass to Shirey for 25 yards. Captain John did some characteristic Tiger leaping to catch the oval. Shirling then made a wonderful run to the five yard line but hurdled, and was penalized 15 yards. Another pass, Ed to Slick, made first down, and on the next play Fox plowed over. Moulton's kick was low. At this juncture the Wave gathered new impetus and registered three successive first downs with a bewildering shift. The Plainsmen fathomed this, however, and Tulane did not threaten seriously. The last half was slow and drawn out. The heat played havoc and both sides were penalized for extra time out. Alfred Brown scared the Orange and Blue spectators in the third quarter when he broke loose on a sweeping end run for 25 yards. Big Ed came back shortly afterwards with a 45 off right tackle. Mr. Shirling used his stiff arm to advantage on a greenback OF two while he was clipping on the longest gain of the day. The last quarter found the ball in mid-field most of the time. Tulane did have a couple of chances to score, but the Tiger is always fiercest with its back to the wall. Coach Donahue gave all of his substitutes a chance and they each gave a good account of themselves. Tulane brought to Montgomery a well balanced team. The writer does not claim to be a critic, but does believe that the Emeraldites could do lots of damage if they had a competent aerial attack. Their passing game was not used at all until too late. The two Brown brothers, Lautenscheuger and Lem-brecl, make up a quite formidable backfield, and Lempbrect is a line driver T. N. T. In the lino Talbot and Berecht were the outstanding figures. Phillips and Gamble did well on the flanks and were in the midst of most every play. There were so many used in the last half for the Tigers, that we became confused as to the personages. In the first two frames "Fatty" Lawrence had it all over Reed and Rip Reagan is just naturally one of the best linesmen in the South. Pruitt and Moulton were always there and "Batch" Ollinger did mighty well after "Slick" was" injured. Scotty and Gibson gave all the onlookers a demonstration on how to tackle and the backs always had an ideal secondary defense.

This is the largest enrollment in her history. In this, seventeen states and two foreign countries are represented, as also every county in Alabama.

(Continued on Page 4) Auburn Jellys Have Rivals In the future those known in Auburn as jellybeans will have to look more closely to their laurels. Secretly and under the cover of darkness there has sprung up an organization in dear old Auburn that bid's fair to rival any in New York or elsewhere. This club is pretty well organized now. It holds its meetings regularly and is certain to grow and expand with such a powerful influence and backing. For a long time nothing was known of the Faculty dancing club—that's the name of Auburn's famous four hundred—and information was obtained only by leaks in the usual channels for such gossip. It seems that all of our professors and their wives and friends are implicated. Such a dancing club could have nothing but success in store for it. Due to the secrecy with which the meetings are held, not much is known of their inner workings. We do know, however, that on every other Saturday night all the professors don their evening clothes, and just after darkness has fallen, they strut down to the gymn with their fair partners. Program dances are the vogue and we have heard that there is a rush to be the first on the scene. This being in contrast to our notion of dances, we can only infer that diplomacy is also a great factor of these meetings. (Continued on Page 4) While the opening dances this year lacked some of the dash and vigor possessed by those of old, very few could say they were not a success. The main object was to assure the student body of the remaining dances for the year, and this was accomplished in grand style. True to old Auburn form there was a gathering of many beauties ol the fairer sex in our midst. The Village of the Plains became a scene of gayety and festivity. Cares were put aside and everyone entered into the spirit of the dances to the best of his ability. Of course, some of us have more ability along these lines than others, and it is rumored that a few of our number were especially down-cast when the time came for the girls to wend their way homeward—to Atlanta, for instance. Everyone had a good time, though, .and we were all more or less sorry when the time came to break up. .An added attraction^ was Au-biirn's victory over Camp Benning •rftfctS—*&?nfB&uh<—iiil wcTe in a jgood humor for the dance Saturday night—and we were not disappointed. The music was all that could be asked for, and the Bell Hops did themselves proud. Realizing that this would be the last dance for some time, it was entered into with a vim, and everyone had a good time. The students have now proved that they deserve to have the dances, and those who attended the opening dances this year know that we can pull the right kind of dances and have just as good a time. We may all look forward to the mid-year dances with a great deal of anticipation and confidence. Tiger's Victory Over Georgia Hard Earned, But Decisive Juniors Elect New Assistant Football Managers The Junior Class recently elected two new assistant football managers. Feny Crane and Minnie Brice, the two elected for this position last year, have both resigned as they have already purloined enuf equipment for the next three generations and were fair eoough to^give someone else a chance. Chink Chambers, Bookie Snapp, Henry Sweet and Doug Knight were the four chosen to be submitted to the "A" Club for a selection of two. Glee Club Looks Promising Bedie Bidez throws out his chest when he says that he is piloting the best Glee Club that Auburn or anyone else has ever seen. There are over forty out for practice now and their progress is very gratifying. The club has some good trips in sight and expect to make their first one immediately after Thanksgiving. Bedie suggests, advises and begs that all who think they can sing tenor or bass go to the next meeting and prove to him that they are right. The Auburn Tiger of 1922 fairly ate the Georgia Bull-Dog in the annual death-fight between the two denizens of the gridiron, ancient champions of their states, age-old rivals in the grand old game of football. The eyes of the South were focused upon them with intense interest and the hearts of two x states vibrated with the old, ever-recurrent thrill as their idols and gridiron gladiators faced each other. From the outset the contest was marked as a fearful, glorious one. The prophecy of one of football's decisive battles was in the air. On the one hand, imbued with the determination to uphold the brilliant tradition newly established in the last two years, and with the fight of a real fighting team, stood the Georgia Bull-Dog. On the other hand, smarting under the lash of two successive defeats, each by the score of 7 to 0, and each marked by a gruelling death grapple between evenly matched foes and inspjred by ship, was the Auburn Tiger. T'ie costly breaks of the game had gone against him for two years, and he went beyond the river to cross the far-awjay goal line and tear the heart out of Georgia in spite of all the Georgia team and all the devils of chance behind them. He lived for the time when he could show the world that it took something a little stronger and more substantial than Old Luck to keep him from Georgia's goal. And he didn't fail to demonstrate that fact to all maniacs who witnessed his antics. He may have disappointed some who hoped to see a slaughter, or who felt the sting of past events a little more keenly than others, but he didn't disappoint the boys who loved him best of all and who were with him to the end, the Auburn student body. He beat the Georgia Bull-Dog by the small score of 7 to 3, but he beat him decisively and finally and that's all we wanted. He came from behind; he staged as brilliant a comeback as was ever seen on the chalked turf, and he won. Auburn beat Georgia in spite of all the wierd phophecies advanced by would-be football critics, about Georgia springing a surprise with the Notre Dame aerial route which the foxy Mr. Stegeman would glean from the Tech-Notre Dame game, and all such foolish speculations as that. And Auburn didn't luck out either. In the language of the poets, she just naturally "tore 'em down." Columbus is a fitting "No Man's Land" for Auburn and Georgia. There is a great contingent of supporters there on either side and the spirit runs high. It was certainly running high this time. It was manifest in the hurrying, scurrying crowds that flashed up and down the streets, in the flourishing display of the Orange and Blue of Auburn and the Red and Black of Georgia, both cheered to the point of frenzy, and altogether, in the blood-curdling yells, the tooting of myriad horns, the babbling of thousands of voices, rising in sympathy or in friendly strife. And there was more enthusiasm among the fans at that game, both genuine and artificial, than the. writer has ever seen anywhere. The gentle gathering of 18,000, as the fury of the fray spent itself, became a surging, turbulent horde of nerve-racked maniacs. Had the University of Alabama been playing in Tuscaloosa, with the asylum en masse on the sidelines, the ravings would have been hushed and stilled in comparison with the wild, hysterical gyrations of those brain-racked fans. And small wonder. Two more games like that (which are very likely to occur in Birmingham and Atlanta shortly) and I will be a confirmed invalids suffering from permanent heart trouble. Georgia threatened so seriously as to send your heart bouncing between your teeth and so often as to make it almost change its residence to the throat. In the first half the charging Georgia forwards and the rushing backfield Opened holes that remote! in si^i first donis s s 4 ^ three point lead for the Bull-Dogs. Georgia carried the ball to or near Auburn's ten yard line, where after three ineffectual thrusts at the line, Mulvihill kicked a perfect drop-kick from the 20 yard line. Auburn's salvation was that she presented a stone wall in the shadow of her goal, as she failed to register a single first down in the half. The consternation of the agonized Auburn rooters gave way to joy, wild and unrestrained, in the first of the 2nd half, when Ed Shirling, after making first down, hurled two beautiful passes to Pearce and Moulton for 35 and 14 yards, respectively, after which Wild John Shirey carried the ball over left tackle for a touchdown, all within two minutes after the kick-off. It was at this juncture that the Auburn side displayed its powers of demoniac unintelligence. But the unmitigated joy was short lived. Georgia threatened continually, and it was John Fletcher, who caused the most excruciating pang the poor heart has ever been forced to bear, when he broke through left tackle and ran 37 yards to Auburn's ten yard line. Fatty Lawrence got him by the big toe just as he was beginning to think that he had made a touchdown. Here the characteristic mettle of the Auburn line proved itself as never before, and when Georgia's last down was downed, Auburn gained the ball on her 15 yard line. She earned it. This was the end for Georgia. The tide receded, and Auburn swept'her off her feet. She barely halted two drives by Auburn in her own territory, in which the magician, Shirey, slipped through Georgia's line, once for 26 yards, and again for 20. Finally, on the prettiest play of the game, Ed Shirling intercepted a Georgia pass, and shaking off or eluding the whole Georgia team, ran 25 yards to Georgia's 18 yard line. Ed and John made first down speed- (Continued on Page 4) .a FORMERLY "ORANGE AND BLUE" PUBLISHED WEEKLY EDITORIAL STAFF R. B. Barnes - Editor-in-Chief E. G. Lutz - —Feature Editor M. C.

In commenting on the Auburn-Georgia Game, the remark was made that the Georgia line proved strong, (which was correct) and that the mighty Ed Shirling, line-bucker de luxe, failed to show up, as he gained only 30 yards through the line. We hope that * the writer of this clause did not witness the Auburn-Georgia game because if he did, he is forever branded as an ignoramus. At any rate we are forced to ignore it as unimportant, but we will add that we may consent to join in argument with the Crimson and White if their football team beats Georgia and proves itself in a class with Auburn on the gridiron. Just give them enough rope, and they'll hang themselves. We don't have to do it for them. Ed Danforth, sporting editor of the Atlanta Georgian, has proclaimed the Auburn Tigers as the cleanest, gamest team in the South and Auburn as the most loved school. Thank you, Ed. You're right. And think not that we are lacking in appreciation. Boys, when you go to the Centre game, don't pelt the Sponsors with pillows, as some of you or one of you accidentally did at the Springhill game.

Hall, The Tiger leaps to meet his foe, The Bull-dog answers the challenge call. To the battle ground and fight again Ere last year's moans all have died. The Canine comes from the mountain side And the Cat stalks from the Village Plains, Amid the hills of Habersham Amid the valleys of Hall. 2. ,. % All down the hills of Habersham All through the valleys of Hall, The Tiger scents his prey; He hears the beasts of the jungle squall, And he hastens onward till the break of day, And with utmost care from his wooded lair, The Cat shifts silently to his canine snare, Here in the valleys of Habersham Here in the valleys of Hall. 3. High o'er the hills of Habersham Veiling the valleys of Hall, The hanging cypress in its mossy hold, Whispered to the poplar tall Of the battle of the century manifold, Between the Bull-dog and the Tjger Cat. The weeping willow touching a grassy mat, Said, "Fear not, the fight, yet untold, Deep shades of the hills of Habersham These glades in the valleys of Hall." 4.

A HARD ROAD Pilgrim, look up I The road is dusjy and hard, And the journey long, No matter how high ascended, There are other heights unsealed, Look up! The toll we must collect Ah Ha! Fair one, it is Centre and Georgia Tech. William LeGrande is at present relating some very thrilling sights he saw at the Auburn-Georgia game last Saturday. The ocean slumbers restlessly. A Green Wave from the Gulf is turned into a stagnant pool. Frank McLean Stewart jumped from a moving vehicle in Columbus. He says to never lead with your right unless you are left-handed. The wind- falls low, Softly the trees swing to and fro, The lengthening shadows begin to creep, * And the sun sinks silently to sleep. A Green Wave rolls toward the shore; A Tiger drinks—the wave is no more. A Praying Colonel comes from afar, To hunt the Tiger by the evening star. In the graying dusk the Colonel dies; He heeded not the ocean's sighs, And yet the wind falls low, That which was a Golden Tornado, But the Bengal Beast sniffs the air, And returns quietly to his jungle lair, Just as the Eve is hanging low, And the leaves whirl softly to and fro. Georgia First—Auburn Last; Shirling hurls a forward pass; Georgia Last—Auburn First; Bull-dog carried a la Hearse. Come—come—Ford child, What makes you look so wild, Columbus, Columbus, Mother, dear, But I'll be well by next year. The Cricket chirps. Some boy forgot to pay. All Bessemer will turn out to see Charli«~Scott play in Birmingham Saturday. Guin will also be there to see John Shirey perform. John says all five of 'em will be there. ODE TO PATOOTIE PRICE By a Montgomery Girl "I'm just a lonesome Cutie Singing "Sweet Patootie" Blues.'' Mr. Frank Bevis spent Monday night in Columbus where he was the guest of the Commercial Hotel. Blucher Cooper attended the dance at the Montgomery Country Club. Mr. Cooper did not dance, however, as it was stuffy inside. He says he always needs fresh air. "Speck" Jervis and Frank Knowles are standing an intelligence test. The experiment will be an interesting one for the class in zoology. We were fortunate enough to win the beautiful Japanese Imported Pearls which Ed Shirling brought over from Girard. This enabled us to go to Montgomery to witness the demise of the Green Ripple.

C.—Columbus Country Club—was quite crowded, all vacancies being seemingly filled up. The atmosphere was reaming with the merry spirits of the dancers. Speedy Benning was on the 18th green when seen on the golf course at Columbuus. He acquired lots of prestige by making 6 holes in one, due to a crooked niblick and a Girard tee. He lost a watch and other belongings during his flight. "Pig" Stevenson got across the river O. K. returning. A sole stirring scene is some one losing a rubber heel. Be the voice and not the echo. Many old boys sauntered back to town last week, among them were Harry Watkins, Charles Ordway, Hub Hahn, Buddy Weedon, Choctaw Creel and others that we were not able to see or they couldn't see us. Bargain Hawkins found a good hat in Columbus. George Wilkes bought overcoat. new Gus Orum has lately been honored. He is now at the head of the nights of Augusta. over town, and went in a body to see the Auburn-Tulane game. Saturday night an eight-course dinner was served in which handsome John Shirey was the guest of honor and the center of attraction. Are You Short of Money Read what Guy Harris says about making money selling Simpson Tailor made clothes. "I worked my way thru school selling Simpson suits and overcoats. Last spring I found myself in a position of being compelled to earn extra money to pay my expenses or leave school. Thru the employment manager at school I learned of J. B. Simpson, Inc., and succeeded in making a connection with them. Altho I-had never in my life before sold a suit or overcoat, I have earned an average of $37.00 per week by using my spare time to take orders for Simpson suits and overcoats. I did not depend only on the college students, but each afternoon I went out and called on from ten to thirty men. As Simpson values are exceptionally good and I could save the men from $10.00 to $20.00 on every suit or overcoat I nearly always succeeded in getting from one to five orders a day. The opportunity to do this work was a God-send to me and I can think of no better way to meet expenses than by getting the agency for Simpson clothes. The firm is 100% on the level—a big, reliable, honest institution and I cannot speak too highly of them. This season I will do even better as I have several hundred satisfied customers whom I can resell." Guy. C. Harris. If you are looking for a means of making money you can find no better or more profitable way than by making application for the Simpson agency at your college. All our suits and overcoats are made from virgin wool fabrics, tailored to order and sold for *he flat price of $29.50. In fit, style and quality, they are equal or superior, to the average garment retailed at $50.00. We are one of the largest tailoring organizations in the United States, and stand back of every garment with an honest guarantee of absolute satisfaction.

Oswald's Farewell Letter Auburn, Ala., Oct. 31, 1922. Dear Papa— We had a revised edition of the Army game here at home last Saturday. We all got Fort and Camp Benning (Cousins of Walter Camp and Speedy Benning) over here to show the people how the Army game would have been if the West Pointers had a come down here. We handed the soldiers the raw end of a 30 to 0 score. There was a lot of pretty girls here to see the game, as they had come to dance, and personally, I think that is the reason we made such a beautiful showing. Fox Howe kicked a drop-kick during the third quarter, the first that has happened in a game since "Rip" Major booted one way back in 1912. I found out later that some girls asked him to. Anyhow it was good and everybody was surprised except Fox. This Georgia game Saturday has I me all hepered up so I hardly know what to. say. Some of the ladies down to our j 'ance, papa, hadn't ever seen a g.me before. One asked how many halves there was. Another wanted to know how many times you had to chin the goal post before you could touchdown. Still another asked if you could use the goal line again and if a spiral couldn't be called a coil. I heard one inquire of Bill Styles why the piayers wore helmets and he said to keep the boys from whispering and using bad language when they caught the punt or Shin Guard stopped them on the home stretch. One lridy who evidently knew Brow)ning asked to show her when Pippa Passes, so I punched her at the same time Ed Allen chunked one to Pete Garland and she got mad and said Pippa wasn't that kind of a girl. Well, down to the game proper. We used straight football for the benefit of a few Georgia men who swore we were crooked. John Shirey made our first touchdown after swapping some punts with the Soldiers, and Edwin Allen kicked goal. This took the heart and soul out from the bodies of the Benning eleven, who had hoped for a complete rout for the Jungle Tiger. Not long after, Dad, we got on to their barrage and put on a forward pass attack and Edgar Allen went over and this same Edward kicked another placement. He sure is rough at times. We see-sawed around for awhile. Ford and Shirey were taken out not long after the game started. The Fort Benning team had a fullback named Lehman and he was good on line driving. We couldn't put Lehman out, but somebody sure stopped him a couple of times. Charley Scott was sent in in the second quarter and he went for 35 yards and a touchdown on his first play this year. We all don't get excited now about runs like these. It's an every day affair. Our next score was a drop-kick by Mr. Fox Howe. •How he did it we don't know or don't care, but it can be done and when Fox and Tex meet in the Centre game, I'll betcha it'll be a scrumptuous meet. In the last quarter Benning made their only threat at our goal. They got to our ten yard line, but they didn't get any further. We four tries. Shirey hopped 35 yards, Scotty skipped 30, and then started up the field after they had John jumped 25 for a touchdown. Camp Benning, in Lehman had a good ground gainer, and Adams and McNab were nice on defense. We had some nice players, too— 5Egsr~xir.=s.-a=^—.... gspacaasgacs '", t-T1 Sitz, Pearce, Ray, Lawrence, Wynne, Grisham, Ollinger, Petersen, Allen, Shirey, Ford, Scott, Garland, Howe, Reagan, Harrison. I believe that is all that played. Then we had Moulton, Pruitt, Gibson, Thompson, Harkins, Brice, Duckworth, Knapp and Glover on the sidelines and my friend Edward Shine Starting in Atlanta to see how Notre Dame does It. There was lots of people there. It was guessed that 4,000 persons passed the turnstiles and a lot of girls. The line-up was: *j US BENNING Sitz --.L. E Gayle Pearce L. T . . . Peckinpough Ray ,.-..L. G. Yon Lawrence C McNab Wynne R. G-- Crist Grisham R. T . . . . . . . Adams Ollinger R. E . . . Gee Petersen Q -- Rodgers Shirey R. H Chapman Allen L. H Smith Ford F Lehman We substituted: Reagan for Wynne, Garland for Shirey, Howe for Ford, Scott for Allen, Harrison for Sitz, Ford for Howe, Shirey for Garland, Wynne for Ray, Allen for Scott. Benning substituted: Still for Crist, Zellare for Rodgers, Underwood for Gayle, Davis for Gee, Parkes for Adams, Coghlan for Yon. Referee was Erwin (Drake), Umpire was Patterson (Auburn), Head Linesman was Leonard (Army). Time of quarters—15, 12, 10, 10. Benning has a good all-round team. They seem a little slow, but that is to be expected being in the service and in Columbus too. Well, the dances are over and I can't study so I'll be home soon. [ hope to be able to see the Georgia Buil-dog without any skin next Saturday night ,but I'll speak to you about it. I hate to. leave all these people here—like Ed Jacobs, Dick Brown and Pig Stevenson, but I have been csked to resign. I sincerely trust you will forgive my failure to a'dherc to rules. I'll have another chance some day—who knows? Kill the fatted calf and I'll bring home a piece of the Bulldog's chain. Yours till the sky warps, Oswald. OVER TWENTY-FIVE OUT AT WEBSTERIAN The Websterian Literary Society is growing all the time. A very varied program is keeping up the spirit that has been shown since the first meeting. At the regular meeting last Tuesday night, the 17th, all the following parts were carried out creditably. Mr. P. N. Davis gave a short summary of some of the latest happenings. The famous "Barnyard Quartett" which is making such a hit with the Ag. Club sang two humorous songs, the second being expected as they never get up without being called back. "Pat" Patrick gave a reading of one of Riley's poems and the society (was so pleased that he too was encored. He then gave Walt Mason's opinion of the man who was always reminded of some jok" In a very interesting as well as instructive talk, Prof. Hulse told the society some of the things that he had learned about debating and society work in general. In an election of a new , vice-president, Mrs. B. P. Livingston was elected over her husband. Conservative members entertain grave fears that politics is creeping into the society, especially after the results of the election. A committee has been appointed *o revise the Constitution, making all changes they may think necessary. The meeting adjourned in regular order.

The Home of Hart, Schaffner & Marx Clothes FRIENDSHIP COUNCIL The Friendship Council idea, which was so successful at Auburn last year and which has already this year gotten such a promising start, is spreading to other colleges. North Carolina State College at Raleigh is definitely organized on this plan, Georgia Tech is working to the organization, and Kentucky University is making investigation of the plan. A new piano in the "Y" rooms is adding much to the pleasure of pianists and other music lovers in the student body. A considerable selection of new high grade records have been added to the collection in the "Y" and are in constant use." Other additions and improvements are adding to the attractiveness of the Rooms. The "Y" has begun the publication of the "A. P. I. NEWS LETTER", the first issue of which appeared October 1st. It is to be a monthly publication going free to the Alumni and parents of students during the college year. DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club has taken in a number of new members. With a large amount of material to draw from and under the directorship of Prof. Saidla, the Dramatic Club has a bright future before it. As decided by the program committee and the members ot the Club, one act plays will be given as a part of the program each week. The other part of the programs will consist of the study of the development of the drama and other things of current interest in the field of dramatics.

There was much learning but little real knowledge in Galileo's time (i564-1642). Aristotle was swallowed in bad Latin translations. Ipsedixit. Noonechecked him by what seemed vulgar, coarse experiment. Galileo fought against the dead hand of tradition. He did not argue about Aristotle, but Kit him to the test. Aristotle led s readers to believe that of two bodies the heavier will fall the faster. Galileo simply climbed to die top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped two un- Sual weights. The "best pecs'' were horrified; they even refused to believe the result-that tile weights reached the ground in equal times. "Look at the world, and experiment, Galileo. experiment," cried The biggest man in the 16th century was not Galileo inpop* ular estimation, but Suleiman the Magnificent, the Ottoman Emperor, who swept through Eastern Europe with fire and sword and almost captured Vienna. Where is his magnificence now? Galileo gave us science— established the paramount right. of experimental evidence. Suleiman did little to help the world. Hardly an experiment is made in modern science, which does not apply Galileo's results., When, for instance, the physicists in the Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company study the motions of electrons inrarified atmospheres,or experiment to heighten the efficiency of generators and motors, they follow Galileo's example and substitute facts for beliefs.

These are the simple facts of the case. My tale is about told, a tale that you yourselves have told over and over again. All honor to the wonderful Georgia team, the line that outcharged Auburn's throughout the first half, and the back-field which made 10 first downs to Auburn's nine. Georgia has a good team whose glory need not be lessened by the fact that Auburn has a better one. Georgia also has a fighting spirit that can hardly be beaten. May she win her other games. The Bull-dogs have tied Virginia, and seem in a fair way to beat Vanderbilt and Alabama. The Auburn line regained its true form in the second half as did the backfield. Grisham, Ray, Lawrence, Reagan, and Pearce fought like demons and saved the day for Auburn, while Slick and Hard Boy played the proverbial end positions to perfection. Ford and Gibbey were hurt and did not have a fair chance. Theirs will come later. Fox Howe acquitted himself brilliantly and Charlie Scott was not excelled by any means. Ed and John were the juggernauts of the Auburn Tiger. John Shirey has received and merited the unstinted praise of all sport writers who have seen him in action. He is a gridiron wizard, and his work in the Georgia game could not have been surpassed. And Ed Shirling, with his passing, his matchless defensive work, his invaluable interference, and his drive and power and all-around football playing, could not have been spared by Auburn that day. Ed has not received the praise he deserves, by sport writers. It's a deplorable fact, and an unexplain-able one, that this should be so, especially in regard to Georgia sport writers, because if nobody on the sidelines could tell that Ed Shirling was a real football player, then certainly there were no real football critics on the field. As a last tribute to Georgia," let us shower bouquets upon John Fletcher, star halfback, who carried the ball as remarkably for his team as any man on the field. Centre is next, and verily here is a serious obstacle in our drive toward a Southern Championship. She is favored by many to beat the Auburn Tiger, but Auburn men don't feel that way. Taking them end to end, and the whole back-field, we have so much confidence in that big Auburn team that we believe if they fight as only they can, and if we stay behind them as only we can, Auburn will serve Centre as she served Georgia; and the Tiger will claw the way to Atlanta Thanksgiving undefeated by a Southern team. We may be wrong again, but we don't believe it yet.

Not 4 CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES SOAR HIGH ON EVE OF BATTLE WITH CENTRE Auburn Smothers Tulane's Green Wave In First Half Tulane's Green Wave, moving swiftly, rolled into Cramton Bowl last Saturday with the lunar tide in an endeavor to drown the mighty Auburn Tiger. Fair Lady Moon, who has so long held sway over the wondrous waters presented only her facial profile late the night after this agua from the gulf had failed in its attempt. The Tiger bathed in the Wave's emerald glossiness and his stripes glistened in the light of the half moon as he wandered back to await the coming of Red Roberts and friends. Eight thousand people saw Auburn down Tulane 19 to 0. SaW Auburn play in excellent form during the first half, saw the Plainsmen ripple back the wave and score nineteen points and then saw Tulane's defense stiffen and their offense gather new life with which they collected ten first downs, only to be stopped when they neared the Tigers' goal. - Many people were more or less .astonished at the complete reversal of form shown by the Auburn eleven in the last half after they had seemingly scored at will in the first. With all due respect to the fighting team from New Orleans, for they certainly did scrap, we do know that the Plainsmen slackened up. This is not necessarily an alibi for the score could have been larger undoubtedly. Tulane came back all right and came back strong, but remember we played Georgia the week before and Centre is tomorrow, and the sun had no pity for the combatants in the concrete arena. But the score is not to be harped on. Everything went true to expectations; all are satisfied and if you missed the game, why the boys played merely in form at first and then took a much deserved relaxation. Fuzzy Woodruff said so; Zip Newman said so; Sheehan said so, and one or two Crescent City Editors knew it but said nothing. They are ready for action now, and Centre's attack tomorrow will have to be centered on not any one or two men, but eleven scrapping, snarling, undaunted Tigers. But on with the Tulane ~Story*",teHiorrow's sun may never glimmer. - Slick Moulton started the water flow kicking off ten yards past Tulane's goal, which was the north one. The Greenies were held for downs and they kicked to Shir-ling, who fumbled, and Reed for Tulane recovered. Tulane was forced to punt again and then Captain Shirey gave the spectators their first thrill with a run around left end for 35 yards. The ball rested on Tulane's 16 yard line, until the next play, when Ford hit center for five. Shirling registered three over tackle, Ford three more in the same manner; then Ed went over for the first touchdown. Moulton kicked goal. This all happened within five minutes and it took only three more to do it again. After the next kickoff to Tulane the Tigers gained possession of the ball on the Wave's 30 yard line. It was Ford 11 yards, Shirey 8, Shirling 7 and Ford the remaining 4, all through the line. At this point it wasn't so much due to the backs' ability to hit, altho they can, but the Tiger forwards were rolling back the Wave in unison. It was a line—a true Auburn line. In the second quarter Howe made the third and last touchdown of the entertainment. Auburn held the ball on Tulane's 42 yard line. Shirey went five through center, then Auburn received a penalty of 20 yards for -holding. All the ground lost, however, was regained on the next play when Shirling hurled a pass to Shirey for 25 yards. Captain John did some characteristic Tiger leaping to catch the oval. Shirling then made a wonderful run to the five yard line but hurdled, and was penalized 15 yards. Another pass, Ed to Slick, made first down, and on the next play Fox plowed over. Moulton's kick was low. At this juncture the Wave gathered new impetus and registered three successive first downs with a bewildering shift. The Plainsmen fathomed this, however, and Tulane did not threaten seriously. The last half was slow and drawn out. The heat played havoc and both sides were penalized for extra time out. Alfred Brown scared the Orange and Blue spectators in the third quarter when he broke loose on a sweeping end run for 25 yards. Big Ed came back shortly afterwards with a 45 off right tackle. Mr. Shirling used his stiff arm to advantage on a greenback OF two while he was clipping on the longest gain of the day. The last quarter found the ball in mid-field most of the time. Tulane did have a couple of chances to score, but the Tiger is always fiercest with its back to the wall. Coach Donahue gave all of his substitutes a chance and they each gave a good account of themselves. Tulane brought to Montgomery a well balanced team. The writer does not claim to be a critic, but does believe that the Emeraldites could do lots of damage if they had a competent aerial attack. Their passing game was not used at all until too late. The two Brown brothers, Lautenscheuger and Lem-brecl, make up a quite formidable backfield, and Lempbrect is a line driver T. N. T. In the lino Talbot and Berecht were the outstanding figures. Phillips and Gamble did well on the flanks and were in the midst of most every play. There were so many used in the last half for the Tigers, that we became confused as to the personages. In the first two frames "Fatty" Lawrence had it all over Reed and Rip Reagan is just naturally one of the best linesmen in the South. Pruitt and Moulton were always there and "Batch" Ollinger did mighty well after "Slick" was" injured. Scotty and Gibson gave all the onlookers a demonstration on how to tackle and the backs always had an ideal secondary defense. (Continued on Page 4) Auburn Has More Students Than Ever Before Opening Dances Great Success In an official estimate recently submitted it was found that Auburn has 1360 students. This is the largest enrollment in her history. In this, seventeen states and two foreign countries are represented, as also every county in Alabama.

(Continued on Page 4) Auburn Jellys Have Rivals In the future those known in Auburn as jellybeans will have to look more closely to their laurels. Secretly and under the cover of darkness there has sprung up an organization in dear old Auburn that bid's fair to rival any in New York or elsewhere. This club is pretty well organized now. It holds its meetings regularly and is certain to grow and expand with such a powerful influence and backing. For a long time nothing was known of the Faculty dancing club—that's the name of Auburn's famous four hundred—and information was obtained only by leaks in the usual channels for such gossip. It seems that all of our professors and their wives and friends are implicated. Such a dancing club could have nothing but success in store for it. Due to the secrecy with which the meetings are held, not much is known of their inner workings. We do know, however, that on every other Saturday night all the professors don their evening clothes, and just after darkness has fallen, they strut down to the gymn with their fair partners. Program dances are the vogue and we have heard that there is a rush to be the first on the scene. This being in contrast to our notion of dances, we can only infer that diplomacy is also a great factor of these meetings. (Continued on Page 4) While the opening dances this year lacked some of the dash and vigor possessed by those of old, very few could say they were not a success. The main object was to assure the student body of the remaining dances for the year, and this was accomplished in grand style. True to old Auburn form there was a gathering of many beauties ol the fairer sex in our midst. The Village of the Plains became a scene of gayety and festivity. Cares were put aside and everyone entered into the spirit of the dances to the best of his ability. Of course, some of us have more ability along these lines than others, and it is rumored that a few of our number were especially down-cast when the time came for the girls to wend their way homeward—to Atlanta, for instance. Everyone had a good time, though, .and we were all more or less sorry when the time came to break up. .An added attraction^ was Au-biirn's victory over Camp Benning •rftfctS—*&?nfB&uh<—iiil wcTe in a jgood humor for the dance Saturday night—and we were not disappointed. The music was all that could be asked for, and the Bell Hops did themselves proud. Realizing that this would be the last dance for some time, it was entered into with a vim, and everyone had a good time. The students have now proved that they deserve to have the dances, and those who attended the opening dances this year know that we can pull the right kind of dances and have just as good a time. We may all look forward to the mid-year dances with a great deal of anticipation and confidence. Tiger's Victory Over Georgia Hard Earned, But Decisive Juniors Elect New Assistant Football Managers The Junior Class recently elected two new assistant football managers. Feny Crane and Minnie Brice, the two elected for this position last year, have both resigned as they have already purloined enuf equipment for the next three generations and were fair eoough to^give someone else a chance. Chink Chambers, Bookie Snapp, Henry Sweet and Doug Knight were the four chosen to be submitted to the "A" Club for a selection of two. Glee Club Looks Promising Bedie Bidez throws out his chest when he says that he is piloting the best Glee Club that Auburn or anyone else has ever seen. There are over forty out for practice now and their progress is very gratifying. The club has some good trips in sight and expect to make their first one immediately after Thanksgiving. Bedie suggests, advises and begs that all who think they can sing tenor or bass go to the next meeting and prove to him that they are right. The Auburn Tiger of 1922 fairly ate the Georgia Bull-Dog in the annual death-fight between the two denizens of the gridiron, ancient champions of their states, age-old rivals in the grand old game of football. The eyes of the South were focused upon them with intense interest and the hearts of two x states vibrated with the old, ever-recurrent thrill as their idols and gridiron gladiators faced each other. From the outset the contest was marked as a fearful, glorious one. The prophecy of one of football's decisive battles was in the air. On the one hand, imbued with the determination to uphold the brilliant tradition newly established in the last two years, and with the fight of a real fighting team, stood the Georgia Bull-Dog. On the other hand, smarting under the lash of two successive defeats, each by the score of 7 to 0, and each marked by a gruelling death grapple between evenly matched foes and inspjred by ship, was the Auburn Tiger. T'ie costly breaks of the game had gone against him for two years, and he went beyond the river to cross the far-awjay goal line and tear the heart out of Georgia in spite of all the Georgia team and all the devils of chance behind them. He lived for the time when he could show the world that it took something a little stronger and more substantial than Old Luck to keep him from Georgia's goal. And he didn't fail to demonstrate that fact to all maniacs who witnessed his antics. He may have disappointed some who hoped to see a slaughter, or who felt the sting of past events a little more keenly than others, but he didn't disappoint the boys who loved him best of all and who were with him to the end, the Auburn student body. He beat the Georgia Bull-Dog by the small score of 7 to 3, but he beat him decisively and finally and that's all we wanted. He came from behind; he staged as brilliant a comeback as was ever seen on the chalked turf, and he won. Auburn beat Georgia in spite of all the wierd phophecies advanced by would-be football critics, about Georgia springing a surprise with the Notre Dame aerial route which the foxy Mr. Stegeman would glean from the Tech-Notre Dame game, and all such foolish speculations as that. And Auburn didn't luck out either. In the language of the poets, she just naturally "tore 'em down." Columbus is a fitting "No Man's Land" for Auburn and Georgia. There is a great contingent of supporters there on either side and the spirit runs high. It was certainly running high this time. It was manifest in the hurrying, scurrying crowds that flashed up and down the streets, in the flourishing display of the Orange and Blue of Auburn and the Red and Black of Georgia, both cheered to the point of frenzy, and altogether, in the blood-curdling yells, the tooting of myriad horns, the babbling of thousands of voices, rising in sympathy or in friendly strife. And there was more enthusiasm among the fans at that game, both genuine and artificial, than the. writer has ever seen anywhere. The gentle gathering of 18,000, as the fury of the fray spent itself, became a surging, turbulent horde of nerve-racked maniacs. Had the University of Alabama been playing in Tuscaloosa, with the asylum en masse on the sidelines, the ravings would have been hushed and stilled in comparison with the wild, hysterical gyrations of those brain-racked fans. And small wonder. Two more games like that (which are very likely to occur in Birmingham and Atlanta shortly) and I will be a confirmed invalids suffering from permanent heart trouble. Georgia threatened so seriously as to send your heart bouncing between your teeth and so often as to make it almost change its residence to the throat. In the first half the charging Georgia forwards and the rushing backfield Opened holes that remote! in si^i first donis s s 4 ^ three point lead for the Bull-Dogs. Georgia carried the ball to or near Auburn's ten yard line, where after three ineffectual thrusts at the line, Mulvihill kicked a perfect drop-kick from the 20 yard line. Auburn's salvation was that she presented a stone wall in the shadow of her goal, as she failed to register a single first down in the half. The consternation of the agonized Auburn rooters gave way to joy, wild and unrestrained, in the first of the 2nd half, when Ed Shirling, after making first down, hurled two beautiful passes to Pearce and Moulton for 35 and 14 yards, respectively, after which Wild John Shirey carried the ball over left tackle for a touchdown, all within two minutes after the kick-off. It was at this juncture that the Auburn side displayed its powers of demoniac unintelligence. But the unmitigated joy was short lived. Georgia threatened continually, and it was John Fletcher, who caused the most excruciating pang the poor heart has ever been forced to bear, when he broke through left tackle and ran 37 yards to Auburn's ten yard line. Fatty Lawrence got him by the big toe just as he was beginning to think that he had made a touchdown. Here the characteristic mettle of the Auburn line proved itself as never before, and when Georgia's last down was downed, Auburn gained the ball on her 15 yard line. She earned it. This was the end for Georgia. The tide receded, and Auburn swept'her off her feet. She barely halted two drives by Auburn in her own territory, in which the magician, Shirey, slipped through Georgia's line, once for 26 yards, and again for 20. Finally, on the prettiest play of the game, Ed Shirling intercepted a Georgia pass, and shaking off or eluding the whole Georgia team, ran 25 yards to Georgia's 18 yard line.

In commenting on the Auburn-Georgia Game, the remark was made that the Georgia line proved strong, (which was correct) and that the mighty Ed Shirling, line-bucker de luxe, failed to show up, as he gained only 30 yards through the line. We hope that * the writer of this clause did not witness the Auburn-Georgia game because if he did, he is forever branded as an ignoramus. At any rate we are forced to ignore it as unimportant, but we will add that we may consent to join in argument with the Crimson and White if their football team beats Georgia and proves itself in a class with Auburn on the gridiron. Just give them enough rope, and they'll hang themselves. We don't have to do it for them. Ed Danforth, sporting editor of the Atlanta Georgian, has proclaimed the Auburn Tigers as the cleanest, gamest team in the South and Auburn as the most loved school. Thank you, Ed. You're right. And think not that we are lacking in appreciation. Boys, when you go to the Centre game, don't pelt the Sponsors with pillows, as some of you or one of you accidentally did at the Springhill game.

"\HE SONG OF THE CHATTAHOOCHEE" £~—4Colun?bJ.iss-^a^_Version at the time ;Sf Jhe Aubnra.-GeorKia Game! Out of the hills of Habersham, Down the Valleys of. Hall, The Tiger leaps to meet his foe, The Bull-dog answers the challenge call. To the battle ground and fight again Ere last year's moans all have died. The Canine comes from the mountain side And the Cat stalks from the Village Plains, Amid the hills of Habersham Amid the valleys of Hall. 2. ,. % All down the hills of Habersham All through the valleys of Hall, The Tiger scents his prey; He hears the beasts of the jungle squall, And he hastens onward till the break of day, And with utmost care from his wooded lair, The Cat shifts silently to his canine snare, Here in the valleys of Habersham Here in the valleys of Hall. 3. High o'er the hills of Habersham Veiling the valleys of Hall, The hanging cypress in its mossy hold, Whispered to the poplar tall Of the battle of the century manifold, Between the Bull-dog and the Tjger Cat. The weeping willow touching a grassy mat, Said, "Fear not, the fight, yet untold, Deep shades of the hills of Habersham These glades in the valleys of Hall." 4. And oft' in the hills of Habersham And oft' in the valleys of Hall, Some white teeth shone, over a clean licked bone, Its alluring glister manifesting a deadly fall. Wind, be still 1 Close follows the Tiger alone, Out of the quiet night as the river roars Comes a wierd cry and the Tiger scores. And a War Eagle screams its atone In the clefts of the hills of Habersham In the beds of the valleys of Hall. 5. Among the hills of Habersham Mingled in the valleys of Hall, The Bull-dog is buried on the river banks, While the Tiger lurches in the pall. Backward, to his forest flanks Deep into the" darkness of it all. And an echo resounds across the plain— "Eat 'era up Tiger"—again and again, While far up in the' reaches An Eagle screeches, "War"—not in vain. It calls o'er the hills of Habersham Calls thru the valleys of Hall. A HARD ROAD Pilgrim, look up I The road is dusjy and hard, And the journey long, No matter how high ascended, There are other heights unsealed, Look up! The toll we must collect Ah Ha! Fair one, it is Centre and Georgia Tech. William LeGrande is at present relating some very thrilling sights he saw at the Auburn-Georgia game last Saturday. The ocean slumbers restlessly. A Green Wave from the Gulf is turned into a stagnant pool. Frank McLean Stewart jumped from a moving vehicle in Columbus. He says to never lead with your right unless you are left-handed. The wind- falls low, Softly the trees swing to and fro, The lengthening shadows begin to creep, * And the sun sinks silently to sleep. A Green Wave rolls toward the shore; A Tiger drinks—the wave is no more. A Praying Colonel comes from afar, To hunt the Tiger by the evening star. In the graying dusk the Colonel dies; He heeded not the ocean's sighs, And yet the wind falls low, That which was a Golden Tornado, But the Bengal Beast sniffs the air, And returns quietly to his jungle lair, Just as the Eve is hanging low, And the leaves whirl softly to and fro. Georgia First—Auburn Last; Shirling hurls a forward pass; Georgia Last—Auburn First; Bull-dog carried a la Hearse. Come—come—Ford child, What makes you look so wild, Columbus, Columbus, Mother, dear, But I'll be well by next year. The Cricket chirps. Some boy forgot to pay. All Bessemer will turn out to see Charli«~Scott play in Birmingham Saturday. Guin will also be there to see John Shirey perform. John says all five of 'em will be there. ODE TO PATOOTIE PRICE By a Montgomery Girl "I'm just a lonesome Cutie Singing "Sweet Patootie" Blues.'' Mr. Frank Bevis spent Monday night in Columbus where he was the guest of the Commercial Hotel. Blucher Cooper attended the dance at the Montgomery Country Club. Mr. Cooper did not dance, however, as it was stuffy inside. He says he always needs fresh air. "Speck" Jervis and Frank Knowles are standing an intelligence test. The experiment will be an interesting one for the class in zoology. We were fortunate enough to win the beautiful Japanese Imported Pearls which Ed Shirling brought over from Girard. This enabled us to go to Montgomery to witness the demise of the Green Ripple.

Nor was the Lock-step formulated as the latest dance by a life term inmate of the prison. There are many strap-holders in life's journey—move up a bit and give one a seat. SOCIETY ITEM The C. C. C.—Columbus Country Club—was quite crowded, all vacancies being seemingly filled up. The atmosphere was reaming with the merry spirits of the dancers. Speedy Benning was on the 18th green when seen on the golf course at Columbuus. He acquired lots of prestige by making 6 holes in one, due to a crooked niblick and a Girard tee. He lost a watch and other belongings during his flight. "Pig" Stevenson got across the river O. K. returning. A sole stirring scene is some one losing a rubber heel. Be the voice and not the echo. Many old boys sauntered back to town last week, among them were Harry Watkins, Charles Ordway, Hub Hahn, Buddy Weedon, Choctaw Creel and others that we were not able to see or they couldn't see us. Bargain Hawkins found a good hat in Columbus. George Wilkes bought overcoat. new Gus Orum has lately been honored. He is now at the head of the nights of Augusta. over town, and went in a body to see the Auburn-Tulane game. Saturday night an eight-course dinner was served in which handsome John Shirey was the guest of honor and the center of attraction. Are You Short of Money Read what Guy Harris says about making money selling Simpson Tailor made clothes. "I worked my way thru school selling Simpson suits and overcoats. Last spring I found myself in a position of being compelled to earn extra money to pay my expenses or leave school. Thru the employment manager at school I learned of J. B. Simpson, Inc., and succeeded in making a connection with them. Altho I-had never in my life before sold a suit or overcoat, I have earned an average of $37.00 per week by using my spare time to take orders for Simpson suits and overcoats. I did not depend only on the college students, but each afternoon I went out and called on from ten to thirty men. As Simpson values are exceptionally good and I could save the men from $10.00 to $20.00 on every suit or overcoat I nearly always succeeded in getting from one to five orders a day. The opportunity to do this work was a God-send to me and I can think of no better way to meet expenses than by getting the agency for Simpson clothes. The firm is 100% on the level—a big, reliable, honest institution and I cannot speak too highly of them. This season I will do even better as I have several hundred satisfied customers whom I can resell." Guy. C. Harris. If you are looking for a means of making money you can find no better or more profitable way than by making application for the Simpson agency at your college. All our suits and overcoats are made from virgin wool fabrics, tailored to order and sold for *he flat price of $29.50. In fit, style and quality, they are equal or superior, to the average garment retailed at $50.00. We are one of the largest tailoring organizations in the United States, and stand back of every garment with an honest guarantee of absolute satisfaction.

Oswald's Farewell Letter Auburn, Ala., Oct. 31, 1922. Dear Papa— We had a revised edition of the Army game here at home last Saturday. We all got Fort and Camp Benning (Cousins of Walter Camp and Speedy Benning) over here to show the people how the Army game would have been if the West Pointers had a come down here. We handed the soldiers the raw end of a 30 to 0 score. There was a lot of pretty girls here to see the game, as they had come to dance, and personally, I think that is the reason we made such a beautiful showing. Fox Howe kicked a drop-kick during the third quarter, the first that has happened in a game since "Rip" Major booted one way back in 1912. I found out later that some girls asked him to. Anyhow it was good and everybody was surprised except Fox. This Georgia game Saturday has I me all hepered up so I hardly know what to. say. Some of the ladies down to our j 'ance, papa, hadn't ever seen a g.me before. One asked how many halves there was. Another wanted to know how many times you had to chin the goal post before you could touchdown. Still another asked if you could use the goal line again and if a spiral couldn't be called a coil. I heard one inquire of Bill Styles why the piayers wore helmets and he said to keep the boys from whispering and using bad language when they caught the punt or Shin Guard stopped them on the home stretch. One lridy who evidently knew Brow)ning asked to show her when Pippa Passes, so I punched her at the same time Ed Allen chunked one to Pete Garland and she got mad and said Pippa wasn't that kind of a girl. Well, down to the game proper. We used straight football for the benefit of a few Georgia men who swore we were crooked. John Shirey made our first touchdown after swapping some punts with the Soldiers, and Edwin Allen kicked goal. This took the heart and soul out from the bodies of the Benning eleven, who had hoped for a complete rout for the Jungle Tiger. Not long after, Dad, we got on to their barrage and put on a forward pass attack and Edgar Allen went over and this same Edward kicked another placement. He sure is rough at times. We see-sawed around for awhile. Ford and Shirey were taken out not long after the game started. The Fort Benning team had a fullback named Lehman and he was good on line driving. We couldn't put Lehman out, but somebody sure stopped him a couple of times. Charley Scott was sent in in the second quarter and he went for 35 yards and a touchdown on his first play this year. We all don't get excited now about runs like these. It's an every day affair. Our next score was a drop-kick by Mr. Fox Howe. •How he did it we don't know or don't care, but it can be done and when Fox and Tex meet in the Centre game, I'll betcha it'll be a scrumptuous meet. In the last quarter Benning made their only threat at our goal. They got to our ten yard line, but they didn't get any further. We four tries. Shirey hopped 35 yards, Scotty skipped 30, and then started up the field after they had John jumped 25 for a touchdown. Camp Benning, in Lehman had a good ground gainer, and Adams and McNab were nice on defense. We had some nice players, too— 5Egsr~xir.=s.-a=^—.... gspacaasgacs '", t-T1 Sitz, Pearce, Ray, Lawrence, Wynne, Grisham, Ollinger, Petersen, Allen, Shirey, Ford, Scott, Garland, Howe, Reagan, Harrison. I believe that is all that played. Then we had Moulton, Pruitt, Gibson, Thompson, Harkins, Brice, Duckworth, Knapp and Glover on the sidelines and my friend Edward Shine Starting in Atlanta to see how Notre Dame does It. There was lots of people there. It was guessed that 4,000 persons passed the turnstiles and a lot of girls. The line-up was: *j US BENNING Sitz --.L. E Gayle Pearce L. T . . . Peckinpough Ray ,.-..L.

H Smith Ford F Lehman We substituted: Reagan for Wynne, Garland for Shirey, Howe for Ford, Scott for Allen, Harrison for Sitz, Ford for Howe, Shirey for Garland, Wynne for Ray, Allen for Scott. Benning substituted: Still for Crist, Zellare for Rodgers, Underwood for Gayle, Davis for Gee, Parkes for Adams, Coghlan for Yon. Referee was Erwin (Drake), Umpire was Patterson (Auburn), Head Linesman was Leonard (Army). Time of quarters—15, 12, 10, 10. Benning has a good all-round team. They seem a little slow, but that is to be expected being in the service and in Columbus too. Well, the dances are over and I can't study so I'll be home soon. [ hope to be able to see the Georgia Buil-dog without any skin next Saturday night ,but I'll speak to you about it. I hate to. leave all these people here—like Ed Jacobs, Dick Brown and Pig Stevenson, but I have been csked to resign. I sincerely trust you will forgive my failure to a'dherc to rules. I'll have another chance some day—who knows? Kill the fatted calf and I'll bring home a piece of the Bulldog's chain. Yours till the sky warps, Oswald. OVER TWENTY-FIVE OUT AT WEBSTERIAN The Websterian Literary Society is growing all the time. A very varied program is keeping up the spirit that has been shown since the first meeting. At the regular meeting last Tuesday night, the 17th, all the following parts were carried out creditably. Mr. P. N. Davis gave a short summary of some of the latest happenings. The famous "Barnyard Quartett" which is making such a hit with the Ag. Club sang two humorous songs, the second being expected as they never get up without being called back. "Pat" Patrick gave a reading of one of Riley's poems and the society (was so pleased that he too was encored. He then gave Walt Mason's opinion of the man who was always reminded of some jok" In a very interesting as well as instructive talk, Prof. Hulse told the society some of the things that he had learned about debating and society work in general. In an election of a new , vice-president, Mrs. B. P. Livingston was elected over her husband. Conservative members entertain grave fears that politics is creeping into the society, especially after the results of the election. A committee has been appointed *o revise the Constitution, making all changes they may think necessary. The meeting adjourned in regular order.

North Carolina State College at Raleigh is definitely organized on this plan, Georgia Tech is working to the organization, and Kentucky University is making investigation of the plan. A new piano in the "Y" rooms is adding much to the pleasure of pianists and other music lovers in the student body. A considerable selection of new high grade records have been added to the collection in the "Y" and are in constant use." Other additions and improvements are adding to the attractiveness of the Rooms. The "Y" has begun the publication of the "A. P. I. NEWS LETTER", the first issue of which appeared October 1st. It is to be a monthly publication going free to the Alumni and parents of students during the college year. DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club has taken in a number of new members. With a large amount of material to draw from and under the directorship of Prof. Saidla, the Dramatic Club has a bright future before it. As decided by the program committee and the members ot the Club, one act plays will be given as a part of the program each week. The other part of the programs will consist of the study of the development of the drama and other things of current interest in the field of dramatics.

There was much learning but little real knowledge in Galileo's time (i564-1642). Aristotle was swallowed in bad Latin translations. Ipsedixit. Noonechecked him by what seemed vulgar, coarse experiment. Galileo fought against the dead hand of tradition. He did not argue about Aristotle, but Kit him to the test. Aristotle led s readers to believe that of two bodies the heavier will fall the faster. Galileo simply climbed to die top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped two un- Sual weights. The "best pecs'' were horrified; they even refused to believe the result-that tile weights reached the ground in equal times. "Look at the world, and experiment, Galileo. experiment," cried The biggest man in the 16th century was not Galileo inpop* ular estimation, but Suleiman the Magnificent, the Ottoman Emperor, who swept through Eastern Europe with fire and sword and almost captured Vienna. Where is his magnificence now? Galileo gave us science— established the paramount right. of experimental evidence. Suleiman did little to help the world. Hardly an experiment is made in modern science, which does not apply Galileo's results., When, for instance, the physicists in the Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company study the motions of electrons inrarified atmospheres,or experiment to heighten the efficiency of generators and motors, they follow Galileo's example and substitute facts for beliefs.

TIGERS VICTORY OVER GEORGIA HARD-EARNED, BtjT DECISIVE mmmTfHSf!ffS^S^mlm Page 1) ily, and when the game ended Auburn had the ball on Georgia's 3 yard line with three downs in which to make it. These are the simple facts of the case. My tale is about told, a tale that you yourselves have told over and over again. All honor to the wonderful Georgia team, the line that outcharged Auburn's throughout the first half, and the back-field which made 10 first downs to Auburn's nine. Georgia has a good team whose glory need not be lessened by the fact that Auburn has a better one. Georgia also has a fighting spirit that can hardly be beaten. May she win her other games. The Bull-dogs have tied Virginia, and seem in a fair way to beat Vanderbilt and Alabama. The Auburn line regained its true form in the second half as did the backfield. Grisham, Ray, Lawrence, Reagan, and Pearce fought like demons and saved the day for Auburn, while Slick and Hard Boy played the proverbial end positions to perfection. Ford and Gibbey were hurt and did not have a fair chance. Theirs will come later. Fox Howe acquitted himself brilliantly and Charlie Scott was not excelled by any means. Ed and John were the juggernauts of the Auburn Tiger. John Shirey has received and merited the unstinted praise of all sport writers who have seen him in action. He is a gridiron wizard, and his work in the Georgia game could not have been surpassed. And Ed Shirling, with his passing, his matchless defensive work, his invaluable interference, and his drive and power and all-around football playing, could not have been spared by Auburn that day. Ed has not received the praise he deserves, by sport writers. It's a deplorable fact, and an unexplain-able one, that this should be so, especially in regard to Georgia sport writers, because if nobody on the sidelines could tell that Ed Shirling was a real football player, then certainly there were no real football critics on the field. As a last tribute to Georgia," let us shower bouquets upon John Fletcher, star halfback, who carried the ball as remarkably for his team as any man on the field. Centre is next, and verily here is a serious obstacle in our drive toward a Southern Championship. She is favored by many to beat the Auburn Tiger, but Auburn men don't feel that way. Taking them end to end, and the whole back-field, we have so much confidence in that big Auburn team that we believe if they fight as only they can, and if we stay behind them as only we can, Auburn will serve Centre as she served Georgia; and the Tiger will claw the way to Atlanta Thanksgiving undefeated by a Southern team. We may be wrong again, but we don't believe it yet.
