Post ami Flagg’s Cotton Letter.
New York, Oct. 23.—The market
has been quiet but steady, opening a
little off on poor cables but recover,
ing on trade buying and short cover-
I ing stimulated by unfavorable weath
lor prospects and uncertainty 'if the
report Monday will confirm the in
l crease in crop ideas on which much
of the recent selling 'lias been predi
cated. There are also private ad
vices that recent rains and frost have
reduced a large amount of cotton bq
low contract requirements and that
while cotton of satisfactory staple is
likely to prove scarce and command
large premiums while the longer
staples Arc already getting low and
, bringing almost any price which hold
ers choose to ask.
Some of the latest private esti
mates are on the low side and week
ly figures show large takings with
exports at record levels for the time
of year. Sentiment in trading circles,
however, still averages - bearish and
covering to date lias hardly scratched
I the surface of the speculative short
! interest behind which looms the far
| greater trade short interest which is'
anything that may be determined, by
the demand for goods. Present sell
ers, .however, ary not concerned with
the character of the cotton so long as
the number of bales' reaches 15,000.000
even if in that total there are includ
ed several million bales of linters,
snaps and bailies which /are either
unusable or entail heavy waste if it
is used.
Togtbe man on the street cotton is
cotton whether it be spun or tendered
or not. ■ It is fair to say that in
more conservative gml intelligent spec
ulative circles there is a growing hes
itation "and reluctance to press on
declines which may have run their
course rather fully.

CONCORD FALLS BEFORE
GASTONIA BY SCORE 40-0
Locals Unable to HoW Out Against
Tram of State Championship Cali
bre.
Concord’s football team bit the dust
Friday afternoon before superior
strength, greater weight and more ex
perience when it fell the victim of
Gastonia High School*, loosing by the
decisive score of 0-0.
The v ; sitors, as a result of the game
played here, loom strong in the eyes
of local fans ns a team state
championship possibilities. /There is
no doubt that in recent years, possi
bly not since the time Charlotte play
ed in the city with ■such men as Monk
MacDonald and Carry .Templeton
numbered among its players, no eleven
as strong lias beeriSeen here.
It was n disheartening game front a
local standpoint. From the begimrng
it was apparent that it was only a
matter of time until Gastonia would
tally, but the locals staved off the in
evitable manfully. Time after time in
the first quarter and irt the beginning
of the second quarter, they stopped
the charges of the Green and White
ginnts and held their own goal line
uncrossed.
Poor hendwork on the part of the
Concord players was partially re
sponsible for the early scores and the
mere fact that they were gradually
being worn down did the rest. Had
they watched their passing better and
instead of throwing them blindly, ev
erything would have been much bet
ter and (he score would have been
smaller. Then, if the line had been
able to hold, so that the innumerable'
blocked punts could have been avoid
ed, the score would have been still
smaller.
The game started in auspiciously for
Concord. Gastonia kicked off, a low
hard ball. Mclnnis tried to catch it,
juggled it for about ten yards and
finally lost it to one of the visitors.
Gastonia failed to gain, however, and
Concord took the ball on downs, after
a bad pass from Schneidef on the
fourth down kept Rutter from punt
ing.
Three plays gave Concord a flrst
down but here they were held and ti
taker’s pnnt was blocked, Gastonia
getting the bail on Concord’s forty yard ]
line. Two first downs gave them the
ball on Concord's twenty yard line I
nnd an attempted kick by Rutter went i
wild. The quarter ended with the j
ball in Concord’s possession on her
29 yard line.
At the opening of Hie next, Jarratt
punted out to Gastonia's 10 yard line
but the ball was brought back on an
off-side play and Concord was given a
first down. A pass, Litaker to Hoo
-1 ver, netted (0 yards. Several more
plays gave Concord a small yardage
when Gastonia was penalized 15 yards
for holdling. Concord was now on
Gastonia's 40 yard line, as cjlose as
, she was able to get during the after
noon.
| Litaker, in attempting to pass with
a group of Gastonia players on him,
hit one of them and when the ball
caromed off, Yarborough, visiting lines
man, grabbed it and ran 50 yards for
a touchdown. Rutter drop kicked for
the extra point.
| The next touchdown came soon af
terward. Concord received and after
failing to gain on three plays, Jarratt
was forceu to fall on the ball behind his
line of scrimmage when Williams made
a bad pass. A play directly through
The line and with no interference gave
Hood 22 yards and touchdown. The
quarter ended with the score 14-0.
Jn the third quarter, Gastonia un
corked some of her trick stuff rind ex
ecuted a march soon after play began
which gave another touehdbwn. An
other series of line plnnges, end runs
and passes, through the weakened
Concord team, gave Gastonia a touch
down in the same quarter.
In the last frame, with Frederick
leading in the charges, two more
touchdowns were registered, one of
I which came as a reseult of a blocked
punt behind the goal line.
, Although the Concord backfield
looked slow in passing and in punting,
the truth of the matter was that the
line was unable to bold the players
J out and on every occasion of this na
ture, three or four playeres filtered
through so quickly that the Concord
man bad no time,.-
Hoover was best for Concord. He
was best able to gain through the
Gastonia line and was hard for bis
opponents to stop. Jarratt’s 70 yard
punt in the second quarter was a fea
ture of the game. Armfield did some
pretty tackling before getting knock
ed out.
For Gastonia, Frederich was the
shining Hgtt, tearing great holes in
the line and being practically impos
sible to stop, once he got started.
Schneider was also a star throughout
[the game.
