Statement of Coach Heisman of Tech: "The game resulted as I expected, but of course I cannot say that expected to meet any such defence as Auburn put up. My team played good defensive ball and had I been able to tell them during the Arst ten minutes of play what I told them between the halves, I think It is highly probable that Auburn would not have scored. I don't pretend to say that we could have scored.

That defence is too strong for nearly any Southern team, but I do say that the result might have been 0--0. Auburn has a great team and our defeat was perfectly Statement of Captain Reynolds of Auburn: "I am so overjoyed that I can't think of anything to say. of course, we expected to beat Tech, but when I think that these boys have held a Heisman team without allowing them to make Arst down, I can't hardly belleve It myself. think this is our hardest game, but we are not going to quit working on that account. I recognize that both Alabama and Georgia are formidable and we intend to beat them as we did the Tech." Auburn, Oct.

(Special,) -For the first time in nine years, a team coached by John W. Heisman failed to make first down against an opponent In a football game of twenty-Ave and twenty-minute halves But such was the case in the Auburn -Georgia School of Technology game this afternoon on the Auburn campus by a score of 12 to 0. The Alabama Techs outclassed their rival Georgia School. There were a number of recognized football critics on the fleld and they were unanimous in this verdict. The Tech team ruefully admitted it, and John W.

Helsman, the premier coach of the South, and the recognized authority on Southern football, declared that no team in the South with the possible exception of Vanderbile, could pierce the extraordinary detense of the lads of the A. P. I. Marvelous was the mending of the methods of Auburn. When the' Montalumni of the Polytechnic Institute saw the misarable game the team put up against the Montgomery Athletic Club at Highland Oval a few weeks ago, they were open in their expression of disappointment.

Confldence in the team was gradually instilled by the victory over Clemson and the signal defeat of the Nashville team. But the work of the eloven men coached by Donahue of Yale this afternoon was a revelation to even the fondest admirer of Auburn. Failed to Fake First Down. John Heisman is recognized and admitted to be the best football coach in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association and his strength undoubtedly lies in his ability to imart of how to pierce the line and circle the knowledge to his football students the ends of opponents. Tech has a great team, a great defensive team and probably a great offensive team.

Yet at no time during the forty-five minutes of today where they able minutes of play today were they able five yards. Auburn of course is jubilant. The collegians have a right to be. They have a great football team, the best football team that Auburn has known in years. They have defeated two teams that were formidable championship possibilities, Clemson and Tech.

Auburn has now only two rivals for the Southern championship laurels, er can be pardoned, he will assert that Vanderbilt and Sewanee. If the writIf Auburn meets Sewanee this year. Sewanee will be beaten. Vanderbilt would have a hard tussle for the first money but the Methodists probably pull it down. The Writer" has seen many, football games.

has seen the best teams of the South in their best condition. He has played some football and this assertion is not made unadvisedly. To Donahue let the success of today's contest be ascribed. True, it is that Auburn had good men, better men. perhaps than the college has had since 1899, put Georgia Tech had just as heavy men and men who were the physical equals of the Auburn eleven.

at was Yale football that won. For once the tricks of Heisman did not work and the steady digging of the back formation of Donahue toid the tale of Tech's defeat. Heisman had taught his team every possibie trick. with which his runners the contrary, Donahoue had taught his were calculated 1 to gain ground. On men how to stop every play that any team could possible use and they did it.

The longest gain made by the Tech team was with.a straight ahead buck, through left of centre and with this only three yards was gained. The gain would not have been made, had not the guard played wide and failed to close in with his usual celerity. Auburn All Star Aggregation, Auburn had no brignt particular stars. The team was the star. For only a few mnutes did Auburn fail to play football.

That was during the first five minutes of play and during that period, Tech for the only time during the entire contest was in striking distance, of the Auburn goal. Tech were evenly matched as far as weight was- concerned. During the first five minutes of play, the impression flitted through one's mind that the result would be nothing to nothing. But that was before Auburn's offense began to show itself. The critics were all fully convinced from the first that both Auburn and Tech had fine defensive teams, but neither seemed able to make any impression on their opponent's line.

Auburn kicked off and Tech advanced the ball five yards. The Georgians then were compelled to punt. Auburn was also held for downs but lost ground by taking a long chance and attempting to gain distance in one down. Tech secured the ball but was again compelled to kick. Auburn securing the ball, again was unable to advance and Foy, the great Auburn half-back and punter, kicked.

Tech, on securing the ball, fumbled. With the ball on their five yard line, Auburn carried it 105 yards for a touchdown and during this long journey, the longest gain made was ten yards. It was a case of buck and pull. Brassell, Moon, Streit and Jones made great openings, and the entire Auburn team followed the plays closely, hauling their men for distance after tackled. The team work was magnificent and although there were no performances that caused the spectators to cease breathing, nothing but admiration could be felt for the systematic plugging game of the Auburnites.

Street Palled THirty Yards. The performance was immediately repeated, after the first touchdown, Auburn taking the ball down feld with gains averaging five yards. It is true that Streit, a Arst cousin of Oscar Streit, probably the most popular ball player that ever played on Mont- failed to handle the long punt of Brown, and the ball remained in Tech's possession in Auburn's territory. Tech again failed to show her ability to swing on to the ball. Perkins and Jones made short gains for distance, but on the next attempt the ball went over.

Tech tried thrice, but was unable to advance the ball. On a clever trick, in which Perkins and Foy participated, Auburn gained a yard, but was unable to Improve the situation and Foy had to punt. Tech was offside and was compelled to kick. Foy returned the ball five yards, but after few plays, Auburn lost it. The pigskin was almost Imme.

diately regained and some insignificant gains were made, the ball going over, Teck kicked. It was returned Afteen yards by Foy and Streit, followed with 8 ten-yard plunge. The timer's whistle was blown and the crowd surged over the field to congratulate the victors and condole with gomery diamond, gained thirty yards on one buck, but he was pulled almost the entire distance by the entire Auburn team. No more scoring was done after the second touchdown. Toward the close of the half Donahue showed Heisman, that someone else in the South was there with the tricks.

Perkins, the plucky midget quarter, secured the ball and on a fake end run, passed It to his fellow townsman Foy, who, makIng a great dash around the opposite end, made a gain of thirty-five yards. Time was called for the half when he was downed. Heisman gave his men a severe "talking to," during the ten minutes' Intermission and his talk was fruitful of results. Although in the second half Tech was never able to make any appreciable progress, their defence was perfect and Auburn was able to do only a little better. The entire half was punting duel between Brown and Foy in which the Georgian bested the Alabama boy.

The score ended as It stood at the end of the first half. It took Auburn 13 minutes to make the first touchdown and 5 minutes to make the second. It would be boring to attempt to mention the best players of the two teams and describe their good. plays, but it is hardly fair to pass without notice, the work of big Brassell for Auburn, who at all times was fully capable of opening up Tech's line. Streit had the flercest attack of any player, but he was benefited by Jones's openings, while he made no such holes for the big fellow from Birmingham.

Paterson, the Montgomery boy, allowed the opponents to gain not an Inch around his end. Foy made the only sensation plays of the game, but he did not, like many players, satisfy himself by making sensational plays. He played football all the timo. All Aubura Enthused. When the game closed, the Auburn team was carried off the feld on the shoulders of admirers.

parade of team and students was formed, headed by the cadet band and marched down the principal street of Auburn. Tonight Auburn celebrates. The students are armed with tin horns and firecrackers and at midnight they had not quit yelling. A large crowd from Montgomery saw the game, among whom were, W. W.

Umpire, Lovejoy. The game in detail follows: Jones kicked into Tech territory for forty yards. Wilson got three yards on a cross kick. Hansel went through for a yard and Tech was forced to punt. The ball went into Auburn's territory for thirty yards.

Captain Reynolds made the frst attempt for his team, but there was no gain. Foy couldn't transact business and Lacey fumbled. The Tech right-half couldn't help his cause, but on a second attempt got through for two yards. Compelled to punt, Brown sent the ball forty yards. Bucks by Jones and Lacey made It first down, but after three attempts Foy was compelled to punt.

Housel made a four yard gain, but in advancing dropped the ball, Captain Reynolds falling on the pigskin. Jones, Streit and Foy made it first down on successive bucks. Foy got five yards around the end and Lacey made a short gain. Tech was here penalized for being offside. Auburn here began to show the effects of the work of Coach Donahue, and following the plays clearly, succeeded in dragging the runner for distance after being tackled nearly every down.

Through great openings in the Tech defense, made by Brassell, Streit and Jones, Jones, Foy, Reynolds, Lacey, Streit and Jones, by straight football and the effective use of the tackle back formation, advanced by five and ten yard stages to the Georgian's five yard line, where Jones sent over for a touchdown. The same player kicked a hard goal. Tech kicked into Auburn territory, Lacey returning the ball seventeen yards. Jones took three yards by a tackle over tackle play, and repeated the performance for an additional five yards. Foy on a double pass circled an end for four yards.

Straight ahead breaks by Jones, aided by the magnificent team work of the Auburn squad, sent that doughty player twenty yards further toward the goal line of his opponents. Streit was hiked by his team mates thirty yards, the Tech defense was totally unable at this juncture to stop the Auburn rush line and gains were and extras with apparent ease. made uh through the big tackles, guards The back feld and tackles continued the tricking game and without loosing the ball carried it straight down the field to the Tech goal line. Jones again had the honor of making the touchdown. Captain Reynolds kicked another difficult goal.

Reynolds kicked to Tech's five yard line. Their full back and right tackle were unable to make any visible impression on the defense of the Polytechnic boys and Brown was forced to punt, Auburn was declared off side and the ball was advanced five yards, Tech retaining the possession of the coveted oval. The possession was, however, to them unavalling, and after two futile tries, Brown punted forty yards. Perkins received the kick and returned it ten yards. Foy couldn't gain, but on a double pass the Eufaula boy made the longest run of the afternoon, circling an end for thirty-five yards.

The timers here called time for the half and the teams retired to their respective ends. When time was called for the second half, Tech was offside on the kick-off, and was penalized ten yards. Reynolds received the next kick and advanced the ball, behind splendid interference to the centre of the fleld. The Auburn team here renewed their bucking tactics and gained about twenty yards, but the Tech defense here braced and the ball went over. Tech immediately fumbled and big Butler, the ponderous centre, dropped on the gskin.

The or tians were held, but Foy the vanquished. QUAKERS BEAT JOHN HOWARD. Peaceful Men of Penn Surprise Their Massachusetts Rivals, Cambridge, Oct. -The third surprise of the foot ball season occurred at Soldiers' Field today when the Harvard eleven was not only defeated and prevented from scoring but was completely outplayed in every department of the game by the University of Pennsylvania.

Only three times throughout the game was the Harvard eleven within striking distance of Pennsylvania's goal. On two of these occasions she fumbled the ball. On the third- she was held for downs when only twelve yards from the Pennsylvania goal. The game was a spectacular one throughout. The Pensylvania play was extremely versatile, punting, delayed passes, quarterback runs, take kicks and plunges through the line rapidly tollowing each other.

Stevenson, Piekarski and Green were the stars for the Quakers. Harvard was not without brilliant players, for Starr, who went into the game In the second half, drove his men with energy that seriously threatened the Pennsylvania goal line. Brill also played an excellent rame at left tackle. The game was unusually rough, lugging being frequent on both sides and for this offense two Pennsylvania players were ruled off the Meld by Referee Edwards, Harvard and Pennsylvania were both penalized for off side play and holding in the line. Harvard made many substitutions in the second half and the substitutes played a faster game than did the regulars.

Victors Forced to Work Hard to Win, However.

Ithaca, N. Oct. won today's football game from Cornell by a score of 18 to 6, but the victors were forced to work their hardest to make gains, being outclassed by Cornell in many stages of the game, especially in the first part of the contest. The Cornell men showed their ability to advance the ball consistently and Birmingham did well in the punting, nearly always sending the ball more than forty yards and losing nothing in exchanges with Tooker. But the fallure of the Cornell ends to get down under these kicks proved disastrous, gave the Princetonians nearly as much ground as they gained In scrimmage and greatly influenced the outcome of the contest.

Captain Lynch did splendid work in this line and also was a mainstay to secondary defense before he was compelled to retire in the second half. Other Games. New Orleans. -Agricultural and MechanIcal College of Mississippi, 10; Tulane University, 0. Norfolk.

Duncan Hopeful. Frank Duncan, condemned for the murder of Officer Kirkley, is full of hope that he will receive a commutation of sentence at the hands of the Governor. He is gathering evidence for his attorney to present to the Governor in his petition for clemency. He has received letters from parties who were credited with having made marks concerning his guilt, or who heard statements alleged to have been made by Duncan concerning his case. The letter received from Frank Edwards, a member of the Miller-Duncan gang, now doing service in the Flat Top penitentiary mines, is Interesting.

He mentions Jeff Van Horne, who caped with Duncan from the Jefferson County jail two years ago and who was credited with telling that Duncan said he was guilty of the charge againat him. The letter refers to a statement prepared by Van Horne and sent to Colonel Denson, Duncan's attorney, in which this statement is contradicted. Edwards says, in speaking of Van Horne, that he had just received ter from his attorney In which the latter said that the court In which Van Horne was convicted was illegal and he, the lawyer, expected to get him out. Edwards says that he has charge of the State tool house and looks after the setting of timbers. Van Horne 19 "running a check and getting along swell." The letter concludes: "Experience has taught me that sympathy doesn't buy nothing, coming from a source of this kind, yet I think it appropriate, knowing you are innocent of the charge, to add that you have my deepest sympathy and I earnestly and sincerely hope that the truth will yet prevail." Duncan is also in receipt of two letters from Florida, In which denials are made that he said anything when arrested that was in the way of an admission of being present when the ofofficers were shot.

A report arose after his arrest that he admitted to the Florida officers that he was, present when the shooting took place, but denied taking part. That Duncan made such a statement is denied by J. S. Jones of the Tampa police department, and Frank A. Bell, the detective at Tampa, who was Instrumental in Duncan's arrest.

They say that Duncan claimed not to have been present, his statement being that he was up in a room when it happened.
