Georgia and Tech Out and Brown Crushed Yale RICKWOOD FIELD OFFERED THE PHILADELPHIA CLUB AV ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS EXPECTED TOD A 1 PROVE VAU ABLE ALLIES TO AN AOEU CONSULTED After learning that there was no with Charles Comiskey in reference to the training of his yannigans in Birmingham next spring, President R. H. Baugh of Birmingham yesterday wired President Vogel of Philadelphia that he could use Rickwood field from February 25 to March 20. 1911. President Vogel will reach Philadelphia tomorrow and ''ill receive the wire.

An immediate answer is anticipated. There is hardly a doubt but that the Phillies will train in Birmingham next spring. There came no answer yesterday morning to Mr. telegram to Comiskey. and Manager Molesworth was immediately consulted.

Molesworth wired back that he had made no agreement with Comiskey. and urged the closing of the deal with Philadelphia. Thereupon Mr. Baugh immediately wired Vogel. There will be more than 50 men in the Philadelphia party.

Along with the regulars and the yannigans will be officials of the club. Including Mr. Fogel, trainers, scouts and newspaper men. They will arrive by February 25. and will be quartered at one of the hotels of the city.

They will remain- until March 20. when Birmingham's spring exhibition programme begins. The Phillies will practice every day, arid about three times a week will meet the Barons in exhibition games. It is not improbable, too, that other big i league teams will play games against the Phillies while they are here. Birmingham, as a result of the contract.

will have the option on those players whom Fogel will release. In this way numerous valuable men will be on hand. And throughout the season President Fogel agrees to give Birmingham assistance in case help is needed. In other words, Birmingham makes an ally of a club which Is generally in the first division at the conclusion of National league seasons. No team has trained in Birmingham in recent years.

Some seasons ago the New York Giants were here, and on account of their barbarous tactics on many occasions, they were fired out and not invited to return. But since that time Birmingham has overcome its prejudice against big leaguers springing here, and thus the pending deal with Philadelphia, BROWN SNAKE DANCES WHEN YALE IS SEVERELY BEATEN New Haven. November received its worst football defeat since 1901 this afternoon when Brown defeated her 21 to 0. The game was all Brown's and only once in the contest, was the Brown goal threatened by the Ell players. Daly and Strout at this time executed two forward passes, taking the ball to the Brown 30-yard line, only to lose it on a forward Bass, which was Brown's scoring machine was slow in getting into action.

It did not score in the first period although the entire play was In Brown's favor, and although Sprackling kicked a field goal which was disallowed because of holding in the Brown line, Sprackling kicked a field goal in the second period, making the score, the first half closed, Brown 3, Yale 0. In the third period Yale went to pieces. Sprackling's brilliant runs back of kicks anrl Tale's failure to penetrate Brown's defense kept the play in Yale territory. Sprackling kicked another field goal early jn me half. Then Howe's punt was Mocked and Young of Brown fell on the ball for a touch down.

Smith kicking goal. Sprackling kicked another field goal later, leaving the score Brown 15 when the third period closed. In the fourth period Brown went through the Yale rush line at will. Sprackling heaved a forward pass to McKay, who went through the Tale line for a 40-yard run and made a touchdown. Smith kicked goal, rounding the score up to 21.

After the game Brown men did the snake dance about Yale field, the first time any teanl except those of Princeton and Harvard have so performed. Line-up: Yale. Position. Brown. Reilly.R.

November defeated Holy Cross here this afternoon by 0 score of 17 to 0. The score, however, would have been larger if Princeton had played up to its usual form. The Princeton team made frequent fumbles, were inaccurate in their tackling and in only one instance were able to push the ball over on straight line plunging. Indians Bent Virginia Washington, November Carlisle Indians easily defeated University of Virginia here today, the score being 22 to 6. Virginia could do nothing with the Indians' line and played a defensive game throughout.

Both teams played minus the services of their captains, who were laid up as the result of Injuries sustained In games a week) ago. Auburn Students and Birmingham Rooters FigI ure In the Fray FUMBLING BURT THE CHANGE DF GEORSIANS Score Wiw Ifl to nntl Streit Do Some Splendid Braced In Final Quarter But Too Late Atlanta, November burn walked across ythe border this afternoon. and in addition to defeating Tech with comparative ease, broke the mighty heart of Coach J. W. Heisman, and shattered much of Atlanta's spirit of egotism.

The score was 16 to 0. The game brought about a scene which should live long in memory. About 400 students of Auburn were scattered along the sidelines, and in addition a' phalanx of Birmingham rooters, 125 strong, did yeoman-like service for the orange and blue. Opposing to this horde weer about GO) Tech students, all of Atlanta, and the aforementioned Heisman. The Auburn band, on one side, vied in the strength of its notes against the Tech band on the opposite side.

And the day was dark and dreary, with a line rain, which fell with a chill. But Auburn needed little assistance from the sidelines. The visitors outplayed Tech in practically every department of the game. They showed nothing brilliant on the offense, but they continually plugged at Tech's line and continually swirled ends for short gains. Beneath the greater weight, Tech crumbled.

Had the day been fairer, many contend tiiat Tech would have made a better showing. On the other hand, many believe that had the field been fast, Auburn would have doubled the final score. Tech did not play well. It did not strike with its accustomed vigor and strength, and its speed was, of course, terribly handicapped by the sloppy field. But Tech was guilty of numerous to give the battle to Auburn even had the fight been even.

Captain Lavis and Streit starred for Auburn, while the entire visiting team did work worthy of special mention. It was a noticeable fact that straight football was played from beginning to end, although Tech, on the offense, displayed a fine repertoire of though these plays seldom netted gains. In the third quarter, Tech came within three yards of a touchdown, but lost the ball on a fumble. In the fourth quarter, when no scoring occurred. Tech outplayed the visitors, although this may have been the result of Auburn's confidence that the day was already won.

Auburn scored in the first, second, and third quarters, Manning, Streit and Davis doing the work. Majors' goal kicking was poor. Shortly after the game started fumbles and penalties carried the ball to Tech's one-yard line, but the Georgians kicked it out of danger. Auburn gradually worked back, and through the aid of a cleverly placed on-side kick, carried the ball ten-yard line. Streit in two bucks hit the line for six yards, after which Manning carried the oval around left end for the first touchdown.

Goal was missed. In the second quarter neither side scored, but the Georgians braced and kept the Alabama squad busy. The hall was punted frequently up and down the field. players sifted through lines easily, and vice versa, when Auburn was on the offensive. Because of this only one or two forward passes were successfully made, and In neither case could the runner advance.

Shortly after the beginning of the second half Streit and Majors of Auburn hit line hard for six, eight and ten yards to a position for field goal, which missed. Tech punted, regained the ball and fumbled, and Streit and took up their work again with the result that the latter soon carried over the second touchdown, which Majors could not boot through the goal posts. McCoy and Davis did the advancing for Auburn after the second touchdown and after working the ball back to within striking distance of goal. Auburn lost on a fumble, but soon regained it on a fumble by Tech. The ball was carried back to Tech's sevenyard line, where Davis went through for five yards and then carried the ball over for the third touchdown and last of the game.

PURDUE LOSER BUT SCORES ON CHICAGO Chicago, November made its first score on Chicago in 10 years today, but was defeated, 14 to 5, in a game which averaged ragged, but was marked by brilliant runs. work in the first half ended with the score 5 to 3 in favor of Purdue. In the second half Chicago rushed the visitors off their feet.

Captain Crowley made all of points, touchdown and three goals from placement. The field goals were made respectively from the 20, 30 and 16-yard lines. The touchdown resulted from straight plunges and end runs. Purdue scored when Fletcher, who played notably well throughout, made a perfect forward pass to Hanna and the latter jumped over the line unopposed. The goal was missed.

Tarheels Beaten By P. I. Richmond, November University of North Carolina football team was outplayed and overwhelmed by the Virginia here today by the score of 20 to 0.

LOUISIANA OUTCLASSED BY THE COMMODORES Nashville, November a game fraught with sensational dashes, forward passes and long punts, Vanderbilt smothered Louisiana State university here this afternoon on Dudley I Field by the score of 22 to 0. Louisiana State university did not show' the strength which had been predicted and men had no difficulty in disposing of them.

After the first quarter Vanderbilt's coach began taking out his regular players, and by the time the second half was under way, all of the backfield, with the exception of E. Brown and K. Morrison, had been substituted for. Louisiana was carried off her feet in the first few minutes of play by the splendid work of R. Morrison, Neeley, Stewart and K.

Morrison. After the substitutions were made, Robins at quarter showed up to clever advantage, and ran the team well, besides executing a number of brilliant plays himself. Howell, quarter of Louisiana State, placed a splendid game, but did not get sufficient interference to make his gains count for anything. The line-up: Vanderbilt. Position.

KENTUCKY FINDS TENNESSEE EASY Knoxville. November State defeated the University of Tennessee this afternoon by a score of 10 to 0.

The teams were quite evenly matched and in the first quarter honors were about even. The first touchdown was scored In the second quarter while the second touchdown came Just a few seconds before time was called In the fourth quarter. The feature of the game was the work of Shanklln and Threlkeld of the visiting team, who made practically all of the gains for their eleven, both touchdowns being scored by the former. Small Score Here Milwaukee, November Agricultural college defeated ftlar.quette university 3 to 2 this afternoon. Marquette's sole touchdown wuh disallowed on a technicality.

The play was In Michigan territory during most of the first hut In Marquette's ter-, rltory most of the second ball. MISERABLE FAILURE WAS ATLANTA TRACK MEETING attendance was slim and LOST RECEPITS THAN SPIELS FAIL Atlanta, November the experience of other motordromes is anything like that which the Atlanta speedway has gone through with the last three days of this week, it is too evident that the sport of automobile racing is and thus early in the and yellow on the wane, the -decline and the toboggan. For, according to common report, and as evidenced by scant attendance, it may be said in advance of exhibited balance sheets, the Atlanta Automobile association lost money on this meet; lost big money; that is. if they gave anything the amount of prizes However, a goodly portion of this sum is said to be In trophies, which the association retains. But even at that, It was too evidently, almost pathetically, a losing game.

Thursday, the first day of the meet, the band looked lonesome in the grandstand; there were scarcely more than a hundred spectators around it, while the number in the bleachers was hardly more than 1000. In fact, a liberal estimate of the attendance, including spectators, band, drivers, mechanicians and officers of the course was 1500 all told. Friday was Atlanta Day, and through extensive advertising and appeal to civlopatriotism, mere was a larger turnout, probably 6000 to 7000, while Saturday fell off again. With a large number of deadhead tickets, it is stretching it, perhaps, to put. the receipts for the three days at $7500 to $8000.

It is apparent what this must mean, tills pitiable result of the fall meet on the biggest auto race track in the an enterprise in is stated $300,000 has been invested. The first race meet held on the track last fall paid handsomely. It netted some $30,000 or more, and it looked then as if a few more affairs of this kind would pay out the enterprise. Tne second one, last spring, just about paid The association is said then to have about broken even. Now comes the, third, with an evident loss, and' the question naturally arises, does it Does it signify the end of track racing in the south? For, with Atlanta's failure an example, would any other community think of attempting it on such a scale? The answer to it all seems to be that the public is tired of track racing.

Automobiles whirring round and round a track are practically all alike and when i a person has seen one of these races lie has come pretty near seeing them ail. Perhaps everyone does not feel that way about it, but that in general is given as the reason for a falling public interest. 'It has been noticeably true that there has been far more Interest manifested in the road race soon to take place in Savannah than in the track races here; in fact, the interest in the two is scarce- 1 ly comparable. But from this viewpoint it looks as if track racing is soon to go by the boards; and if there is no more Interest in it at other points than here, It will soon go by the boards. nurinan'H Jonah Day Atlanta, November the result of two accidents on November 19, in successive years.

Bob Burman, one of the best known of the racing automobile drivers in the business, considers that his and this year he says it is the couch" for him for the whole 24 hours when November 19 rolls round. The first accident happened in Savannah in 1908, where he hit a tree while on a practice run, as a result of which hi8 mechanician was injured seriously. The other accident was at San Antonio, in 1909, where he spilled his car all over a two-acre lot, and they picked it up in bushel baskets. Burman was bruised and scratched in both instances, but escaped serious injury. So Bob thus delivered himself to number of friends at the race track here: am going to bed all day on November 19.

Not a peep at the daylight for mine, and between those sheets 11 stay until the midnight hour, when I might venture out for a few minutes. Driving a race on November 19 is out of the question for me. and if they had set the grand prize at Savannah for November i 19, as they first intended, little Bobbie 1 would not be CORNELL SCORES BUT IS BADLY BEATEN BY HARVARD Cambridge, November crushed Cornell on field with the greatest ease today, but suffered the humiliation of being scored upon for the first time this season through a fumble by Pierce, a substitute back in the last four minutes of play. The final score was: Harvard 27, Cornell 5. The Cornell eleven was smothered almost from the start, four Crimson backs tearing over her goal line while two field goals added six points to the score.

Substitutes ran onto the field about every two minutes and before time was called Harvard had played 32 men and Cornell had sent 24 into the game. The line-up and summary: Harvard. Position. Cornell. Lewis, Felton.

SEWANEE BEATS GEORGIA BUT HAS NARROW ESCAPE Sewanee, November a fog over the field, Sewanee today eliminated Georgia by the score of 15 to 12 In a game that was hard fought from start to finish. A touchdown each by Browne and Myers, and a drop kick by Gllletn. made score. McWhorter and Hay each made a touchdown for Georgia. The work of the whole Sewanee team was magnificent.

Runs by Lanier, Browne and Myers were often sensational. Ward plunged in great style and was a wonder on defense. AH the line was tine, particularly Faulkenberry and Juhan. Gillem's punting was a distinct feature. He seldom fell short of yards, and the majority of his boots traveled from 5ft to 7ft yards.

For Georgia, McWhorter, Woodruff. Hay and Maddox played the best game, although the whole team put up tine work. Each team was able to gain considerably at times, but there were periods when neither could advance the ball. It is agreed that Sewanee generally outplayed the visitors. Both of her touchdowns were the result of straight football, and a second too lute in one-half cut her out of another.

One of touchdowns was due to the fog. The line-up: Sewanee. Position. Georgia. Gillespie.L.
