Great Crowd Will Witness
Game Between Davidson and
Univ. of North Carolina
i tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 the ref
eree will blow his whistle and there
will be started one of the best football
games Charlotte devotees of the sport
j will have a chance to witness on the
"local : grounds tms season. At that
time Davidson and the University of
: North Carolina will line up for their
annual game and with a promise of
fair weather, the indications at pres
ent are that an enormous crowd will
turn out.
Both the team managers are in the
city making arrangements for the
game and both give the assurance that
the student body of both schools will
send large representations to cheer
the men on to victory. The whole stu
dent body at Davidson is preparing to
come down.
The grounds have been laid off at
the baseball park and the goal posts
erected and everything is in readi
ness. Up to the present time there has
been practically no betting on the re
sults, as the difference in weight is so
great, and the public at large is not
familiar enough with the new rules to
be able to make a safe forecast as to
the outcome.
Tickets were placed on sale yester
day afternoon at Jordan's and Wood
all & Sheppard's drug stores, and
there has been a good demand for them
ever since they went on sale. The
general admission price will be 50
cents.
"When the teams line up there will
be something like forty-five pounds dif
ference in the weight with the odds in
favor of the university. Davidson is
.playing a team that will 'weigh in the
neighborhood of 190 -pounds with one
that will hardly average 145. Last
year under the near-revised rules, the
result would have been a foregone con
clusion, as the weight of the Univer
sity would have completely swamped
the lighter men. This year it is dif
ferent, though even now there seems
a very little chance for the lighter
team to win. To a certain extent this
will be caused by the fact that the
University line is exceptionally heavy,
aggressive and mostly composed of
seasoned men. while the Davidson line
is light and there is a good sprinkling
of raw meat in it. In the game that
the Carolina boys have played this sea
son, almost in every case the line has
held their opponents long enough for
the backfield to get away with the play
and this has not been the case with
the Presbyterians.
The general opinion is that if the
Davidson line can keep Carolina's fast
men from striking into the play before
it gets started, there is some chance
of the lighter team coming out of the
. struggle with their colors flying.
Whether or not that can be done of
course remains to be seen.
As this is the first game to be play
ed: here under the new rules there will
without a doubt, be a large crowd out
to witness the sport, and those who
think the game has heen so changed
that even a perfect lady could play it
with impunity are scheduled to receive
the shock of their young lives, for as
long as there is a game played in
which" twenty-two live, red-blooded, en
ergetic American citizens are allowed
to go against each other in a test of
skill and muscle, there will adways be
the accompanying thrills of daring and
strenuous effort. The fast, long run,
the sensational forward pass and the
Jehort diving body tackle, (with one
foot on the ground) and the occasional
mass. plays will all serve to furnish
hat element of excitement that was
cut out when the 5 yards in three
downs, the tandem play, and the fly
ing tackle were eliminated.
In the years past Charlotte has been
the hoodoo of the Davidson team, it
peeming a,s if it were an impossibility
for the Presbyterians to "win any of
the games, whether football or base
"ball, played on the local grounds. This
.year there will be a difference for
each game that they will play will be
their best one. "With the coaching of
"Coach" F. M. Simmons, there has
been instilled into the teams .-representing
the little college, a 'spirit of
do or die for the school, and there
will not be a minute, aye, a second in
the two halves no four quarters of
play that will not be hard fought right
np to the last minute. The Carolina
aggregation is one of the strongest in
the state, with the possible exception
of A. & M. and the "Carolina Spirit" is
a thing that is boasted of by the resi
dents of the state when the subjects
dents, of the state whe nthe subject
was never a time when they quit fight
ing. In the game with Kentucky they
put up one cf the hardest fights that
the Kentuckians ever had. From the
first minute of the first quarter to the
finals in the last, all the men were on
th'eir toes and in action.
There are quite a crowd of men in
- Charlotte who claim, the University as
their alma mater, and they are out
whooping things up for the game. The
number of students to come down from
Davidson will about even up the dif
ference in the number of alumnae in
the city, however, and the rooting will
be about equally divided.
It is understood that the college
girls are going to be there in bunches
and root for their respective teams.
Naturally the Presbyterian school will
give Davidson the largest percentage
of the noise from their division of the
; grandstand, hut in both schools there
are staunch supporters of the Unlver-sity.-'and
the feminine element to the
rooting at a football game has always
made a difference in the final score.
, Chapel Hill's Argument.
Special to The News.
Chapel Hill, Oct. 14 Who will win
in -Charlotte Saturday, Davidson or
Carolina? This is the question that
the Chapel Hill boys hope to see an
swered in their favor, as is attest
ed -by the hard work done on the lo
cal gridiron. Coach Brides is putting
the men through a gruelling sys
tem, of training every afternoon .and
with the present material, he should
turn out a team tnatwill not only
defeat - Davidson, next ' Saturday,--, but
also . revenge' itself on Virginia's
eleven on' Thanksgiving ; Day in
Richmond. -
. Although the; University team is
much . the heavier, the Davidson
bujach is reputed to be fast, and
these, encounters in past years have
not been lacking in excitement. The
la$t two games between these two
;lmttitutions resulted in a nothing to
; nothing score. In fact, the last time
either college scored on the other
was in 1905, -when the score was 6 to
0 in favor of the "university.
The Carolina team Is remarkable
this season chiefly for Its weight.
The line formation appears to be as
solid as Gibraltar, and it will be
found a hard matter to break through
such a superb defense as the Caroli
na team has developed. Coach Brides
has expressed himself as being sat
isfied with the defensive work of the
learn, and will devote himself hence
forth to the building up of. a strong
offense. He has declared that he has
never seen such fighting upon the
local field between scrub and varsity
as has been witnessed the past few
days.
The season is too young yet to
pass final judgment upon the white
and blue football aggregation, but
there is apparently no reason why
the university should not develop
this year the best team she has had
in years.
The 'thirteen veterans who intend
ed to get Virginia's scalp last
Thanksgiving, but Avho unfortunately
did not get the chance, are back and
eager to put on their war paint.
These are : Captain Thompson, all
South Atlantic guard; ex-captain
Ichabod" Garrett, all South Atlantic
tackle two years ago; Harry Hedge
nath. rieht tackle: "Mike" Spain-
hour, who is Garrett's understudy;
Bier McLain. right guard; Ames
Brown, center; Fleet Williams, Bob
Winston and Manning Venable, ends;
the only and original Porter, Kumn
and Belk. backfield. Hedgepath and
Williams will be tried in the back-
field.
The new material Is all to the
nmstard and then some. Spencer, one
of the best men on A. and M.'s great
team of 1908, is on the lineup, ana
is making good with a rush. Ross,
who also nlaved on the 1908 team of
A. and M. was here for a while, but
left last week. It is thought that he
win register un at the University
of Virginia. In him, Carolina has lost
a good man. "Babe"" Parker, a broth
er of the 1907 center; Abernatny, oi
OaT.- Ridee: Stevens, of Florida;
Schafner of Webb's school and Van-
derbilt; Chambers, of Woodberry
Fnrpst. and Young, of V. M. I., are
all likely looking fellows, who are
making some of the old men get
down and hustle for their jobs.
Then a number of last years
rrnbs are out again. Among these
are: Wood and Blalock, end; E. C.
McLain. half-back; Ritch, half back
two' Years aero: Cratchfield and Bag
well; centers ; Wakely and Elder, who
were varsity subs.
Practically all of last years men
have returned, and are working for
their old places. Bob Winston is go
insr through the line for long end
runs with his accustomed ease. Win
ston made more touchdowns last
season than any other man on the
team, and was considered by Coach
Brides to be the find of the season.
Cactain Thompson Is holding down
the position of guard in a manner
leaving nothing to be desired, nis two
hundred and twentv pounds being a
serious obstacle to any aspirant for
oouors in going through Carolina s
line. By his side, the captain of last
vfiar's team. Garette. is playing
tackle with the vigor that made him
famous in earlier years. Abernatny,
a new man, who hails from Mecklen
burg, and weighs about 190, is doing
good work at right tackle, and is
also being tried out in the backfield,
his bull dog like stubbornness com
ing in very handily when a gain is
seriously needed through the line.
Calmes, another new man, should
be mentioned as of the new material
that has decidedly made good.
Coach Brides is highly pleased
with the outlook. Some of the new
men look particularly good to him.
He is confident of turning out a
winner. The new rules, he thinks, will
make the game more open, but other
wise the changes will not be as rad
ical as expected. He is not at all
dismayed by the defeat of his team
last Saturday in Lexington, Ky., by
the heavier team of the University
of Kentucky. The writers in all of
the papers reporting the game say
that Carolina received the rawest
deal from the umpire that has ever
been handed out to any Southern
college. Carolina was penalized, in
all, over 150 yards, by the referee,
while Kentucky was penalized a lit
tle over 30 yards.
The probable line-up in the game
Saturday In Charlotte' against Daviu
son will be:
Winston and Venable, or Young,
ends.
Garrett and Abernathy, or Spain
hour, tackles.
Thompson and Parker, or McLain,
guards.
Brown, center.
Beik, quarterback.
Porter and Calmes, or Ruffin, half
backs. Spencer, fullback.

MaxMillei Wins
From John Drake
In a rather sensational wrestling
match at the Auditorium, Max Miller
succeeded, by his superior strength,
in putting John Drake's shoulders to
the floor two out of three falls and was
declared the winner, J
Both men are nearer in the heavy
weight class than in the middle, Miller
being a perfect giant and Drake some
thing of a tower of strength himself.
The first fall went to Miller on a
helf-Nelson and body scissors in 21
minutes and 2-5 seconds.
Drake won the second fall in
the short time of 9 minutes and 40
1-2 seconds on a haramerlock and leg
sissors. The third fall went to the
victor in 28 minutes after one of the
most sensational bunches of plays and
holds ever seen on the local mat.
There was nothing exceptionally
brilliant about either of the men's
work, as the match quickly developed
into a test of strength, rather than
one of skill. Both men relied wholly
on their muscle to win for them and
for this reason Drake lost the match.
The scarcity of legitimate wrestling
holds was one of the most notable fea
tures of the match. The body scissors,
half and full Nelson and the toe hold
being about all the holds that could
be legally called. There were a half
dozen times that Miller could have put
his opponent's shoulders to the floor
had he known more about the game,
but on that side of the argument Drake
was far the superior. He squirmed
out of all kinds of seemingly impossible
places and on every occasion proved
the effectiveness of his toe hold. - The
match was highly entertaining and fur
nished all the thrills that the audi
ence demanded. There was a large
and enthusiastic crowd in the hall and
neve,r once was.it quiet enough to let
the referee's voice be heard. The on
ly near-feature of the excitement was
when Miller inadvertently secured the
strangle hold when he was trying for
a chin bar and the crowd became rath
er wild for a few minutes. When the
hold was secured, Drake simply relax
ed to let the referee and his opponent
know that the hold was secured as. he
could not do much talking with a hand
over his mouth and nose. The crowd
seemed to think the hold was malicious
and that Drake had been injured and
was rather sudden in its condemna
tion of the iron-man. As soon as he
realized that he had the strangle, Mil
ler immediately released his man and
the match went on, neither of the men
the worse for the experience.

Second Game of
Big Sen es
By Associated Press.
New York, Oct. 14.-With the shock
of the first clash over, the Highlanders
and Giants got into their uniforms
today for the second game in the
series for the city championship, both
determined to win. -
Indications, were that 'American
League Park, the scene of the second
battle, would find its capacity taxed
as perhaps never before.
The chances of each team were still
discussed by thef ans.
"Ford can come back and show them
yet," was the confident talk of some
Highlander partisans, who, however, de
plored yesterday's disabling of . Sween
ey, the team's star catcher, by a foul
tip from Chief Myers bat. "Matty", will
repeat, at least once, . perhaps twice,
and it's all over but the shouting," Was
the rejoinder of the Giants rooters. -
On all sides it seemed to be agreed
that yesterday's" game, if not the great
est exhibition ever of scientific base
ball, was a thriller and one that re
flected credit on both winners and
losers. ,

Annual Meeting ;
Charlotte Lluh
Greater Charlotte Club Will
Meet To-night at Selwyn to
'. Elect President Address by
Mr7 W: D. Moody oj Chic
ago. The annual meeting of the Greater
Charlotte Club takes place tonight at
8:30 o'clock in the Selwyn assembly
hall. The occasion will be made un
usually Interesting through the addi
tion of Mr. Walter D. Moody, general
manager of the Chicago Association" of
Commerce, who has responded to an
invitation from the club and who will
discuss the problems of industrial de
velopment, a subject which is very in
teresting to the citizens of enterprising
Charlotte.
The Greater Charlotte Club has se
lected Mr. Moody as the right man to
serve the present purpose because of
his wide exp rience in successfully
conducting enterprises in connection
with the growth and development of
a city. His theories have been well
tested by practical demonstration.
Mr. Moody is at the head of the larg
est commercial organization in Ameri
ca, numbering in all ovef 4,000 mem
bers. His administration of the af
fairs of the Chicago association of
commerce has been very successful
and to him is accredited in a great
measure the present membership of
the organization. He has obtained
for himself a well-deserved reputation
for doing things and doing them right.
Mr. Moody possesses the rare facul
ty of holding the attention of his audi
ence. His style is very unusually at
tractive and he presents some facts
which are well worth listening to and
those who listen to him are convinc
ed that he knows what he is talking
about. In his particular line Mr.
Moody has no superior and thosfe who
know him best recognize his accom
plishments as of no ordinary character.
He will give an insight into some of
the methods whereby the men of the
great city of Chicago have contributed
to the progress of the industries and
commerce of that city.
One very Important feature which
the Greater Charlotte Club expects
will result from the coming of Mr.
Moody is that through him and the po
sition he occupies closer trade rela
tions may be secured between Char
lotte and vicinity and the northwest. .
The election of a new president for
the club is sure to add some additional
interest to the meeting tonight. Mr.
W. S. Lee has positively declined to
permit his name to be used in connec
tion with a re-election and so a change
is unavoidable.
Several men have been named as
good ones for the place and just who
will receive the honor is still in doubt.
The Greater Charlotte Club has
grown to such proportions and has be
come a factor of such importance in
the affairs of the city that the man who
fills the place of president must be a
man of ability and one who is ready
to devote some time, thought and
energy to the work, if the present
standard is to be upheld. Whoever is
elected may consider that he has been
paid a high compliment in being the
choice of this body of progressive bu
siness men.
The meeting tonight promises to be
largely attended, more so than any pre
vious one the club has ever held: A
number are coming from other places
to hear Mr. Moody.

"In Panama."
"In Panama" with the -entire origi
nal production as presented 300 nights
at the Broadway Theatre, New York,
will be the attraction at the AcademvJ
or music tms arternoon and tonight.
The most successful musical come
dy of the season, is a distinct novelty
in comparison to the vehicles which
have been presented in the past years.
A very radical departure, in the style
of entertainment has been made in
the story and the form of construction,
yet the piece will undoubtedly be
found to be the most pretentious. The
story which has both a serious and a
comic side is told in three acts, all
of which are laid in Panama, this trop

dress, gives great opportunity for beau
tiful scenic settings and gorgeous cos
tumes; both scenic artist and costu
mer; have taken advantage tf this;
with the result, that the color schemes
are the best ever seen on any stage.
The music is very catchy and "has a
great many song hits, but that is not
to be wondered at, when one knows

If you're waking, call me v early, call
me early, wine dear.
For the holidays are coming and I
would not tarry here:
I know too well the nervous strain
that I shall have to bear,
If I linger till the Christmas bells are
jingling in the air.
If you're waking, call me early, for I
fain would get me hence
To some far off heathen country that
is modest of expense; .' ,
I would hie me to some island in un-

Where no breath of Christmas cus-

I am loth to leave you, wlfie, but I
haven't got the price
So you'll wake and call me early, I
must skip out In a trice;
I have no insane intention to re

I am swamped, undone, snowed un-

There is no way of making lasting friends like "Making Good"; and

For a torpid liver vith its attendant indigestion, dyspepsia,
