"Wild Bill" Hallahan held the
Athletics to three hits arid no
runs to give the Cardinals a 2-0
victory and even the series at
one all. If you remember, t was
Hallahan who shutout the Ath
letics 5-0 last year, allowing
seven hits. Except for an oc
casional streak of wildness, Hal
lahan was in even better form
today and the big guns of Phila
delphians were silenced with
three scattered singles.
George Earnshaw, big Ath
letic righthander, was in great
form himself, but the Red Birds
from St. Louis were not to be
denied and "Big George" ' was
touched for seven hits and two
runs.
"Pepper" Martin, rookie cen
ter gardener of the Cardinals,
has proved to be the sensation
of the series. It was Martin,
who scored the first run of the
game for the Cardinals. "Pep-
per" doubled to left field, stole
third, and came home on Wil
son's fly to center. Again in
the seventh Martin singled and
stole second, making a total of
three stolen bases for the series
thus far. Martin later came
home on the ancient squeeze
play, Gelbert bunting perfectly.
Hallahan experienced two bad
innings, i but excellent field kept
the Athletics from scoring. The
first threat of the Mackmen came
in the fifth. Walks to Williams
and Foxx, Miller's single, and
Dykes sacrifice left the bases
loaded and one man down. How
ever a fast double play, Frisch
to Gelbert to' Bottomley, on
Earnshaw's grounder retired the
side.
Again in the final frame the
A's threatened. Foxx opened
the inning with a wa,lk, Miller
flied out to Hafey, Dykes walked,
Williams fanned,' and Wilson
dropped the third strike on
Moore, who was safe at first.
However "Sunny Jim" Bottom
ley took Bishop's foul out of an
-old ladies' lap to end the game.
"Dib" Williams, twenty-one
year old Portland flash, again
featured for the Philadelphians.
Williams walked twice in four
times at bat and starred afield,
racing into left to take a fly on
one occasion.
Al Simmons again' provided
one of the fielding features with
a one-handed catch of Frisch's
Jong fly that was headed for the
fence. ' ; J
Martin and Watkins, with a
double and a single each, and
Gelbert, with two singlesled the
Cardinals at bat. Haas, Miller,
and Foxx gathered the Athletics
three hits.
Hoyt or Walberg and Grimes
will probably pitch in Monday's
game at Philadelphia. However
there is a possibility that Grove

Chattanooga, Tennessee, Oc
tober 2. The University of
North Carolina football team
stopped off here today to en
gage in its final practice ses
sion before meeting their first
Southern Conference opponent
of the year in Nashville to
morrow. Today's workout consisted
of final defensive drill against
the plays expected to be used
by Vanderbilt, a short dummy
scrimmage, and a session of
pass receiving and punt re
turning. Although the Tar
Heels went without scrimmage
they were given plenty to do
and were kept busy through
out the two hour drill. v
The Tar Heels left Chatta
nooga tonight for Nashville
where they I will rest until
game time Saturday. Today's
workout was held on the Uni

Today will see most of the
Southern Conference teams meet
their second opponents of the
year, and the day's lay out prom
ises plenty of excitement for
those interested in the great
God football. Georgia, Georgia
Tech, Florida, and Kentucky will
be playing their first games of
the season while Auburn is the
only school in the Conference
that will be idle.
Carolina-Vanderbilt
This game is going to 'supply
quite a bit of action and some
body may get a surprise before
it's all over. , We'd like very
much to predict that the Tar
Heels are going to come out on
top and get a flying start to
wards the Conference crown, but
things don't point that way.
Vandy has a great team and has
been rated as one of the strong
est teams in the South this year,
while the Tar Heels are still , in
the dark horse class. Whatever
the outcome, there's going to be
a battle, and if the Tar Heels can
get the right breaks they may
come through with one of the
season's biggest upsets. Branch,
Slusser et al may come through
to win, but we'll go down as
picking Vandy to win by about
one touchdown.
Florida-State
Florida is supposedly pretty
weak' this year, but we have an
idea that the Gators have been
keeping something under cover
and will give the Techmen a
warm afternoon of it. State
showed plenty of power last
Saturday against the Davidson
Wildcats, and should come
through with the victory. By
about one touchdown, we should
say.
Duke-V. M. I.
The Blue Devils picked a nice
one for their Homecoming event,
and everyone should leave Dur
ham with a happy feeling that
is, except the Cadets. Duke
should take this, game without
any trouble, and unless the V.
M. I. fighting spirit is too much
in evidence shouM roll up two or
three touchdowns.
Tulane-Texas Aggies
Tulane has another great team
this year and although the Ag
gies from down in the Panhandle
are usually no weaklings them
selves, we figure the Greenies to
come out on the long end of the
scorekeeper's tabulations. The
score will probably not be over
whelming by any means, and if
the Aggies come out best don't
be surprised. However, call it
Tulane by a touchdown. ,
Tech-South Carolina
Georgia Tech opens its season
today against the Gamecocks of
South Carolina. The South

SCORING THREAT
High Spots
Of The Series
By TOM WALKER
Manager "Gabby" Street pull
ed an ace, "Wild Bill" Hallahan,
out of his pack of Cards that
Connie Mack couldn't take with
his A's, and it looks as though it
may be in the Cards for St. Louis
to have a world championship
club. ,
Hallahan started off like Der
ringer, striking out two men in
the first inning, but the port
sider finished quite a bit better
than his teammate. Bill put
down the first eleven men to face
him. The three hits the A's got
were scattered out over the same
number of innings.
"Pepper" Martin, little five
foot centerfielder for the Red
Birds'got a big hand from the
crowd when he came to bat in
thesecond, and he gallantly re
sponded with a double, a stolen
base, and the first run of the
game. Getting two hits and two
runs yesterday, the big, little
man seems to be determined to
show-the world his performance
Thursday was no fluke. ;
Mickey" Cochrane was the
first Athletic to get on base,
Hallahan passing him in the
fourth. "Bing" Miller, singling
in the fifth, was the first Mack
man to hit Hallahan safely.
Al Simmons went back to the
oil sign in left field to pull an
other drive off the fence. "Sunny
Jim" Bottomley, St. Louis first
baseman, went to the barrier to
catch a foul off the bat of Jimmy
Dykes, and in the ninth Jim
made a catch that was probably
the most pleasing one of the
game to the St. Louis fans. He
reached over the wall of the
stands to take a foul out of a
lady's lap for the final put-out.
Watkins, Cardinal rightfielder,
also came in for his share of the
glory by picking a fly ball off
the fence and throwing in ' to
hold Haas at first
Bottomley got Earnshaw s first
and only complimentary ticket
to first base in the eighth inning.
At least one world conference
of the year accomplished some
thing. The Cardinal infield held
a meeting with Hallahan in the
fifth, and then with the bases
full, a double play by Frisch, Gel
bert, and Bottomley, retiring the
A's, spoiled the first chance to
score that Philadelphia had.
Maybe we'd get some results if
those Cardinals were put to
work on the unemployment sit
uation. ,
The oil wells had to. shut down
soon or late. There are just so
many- corners. W aterbury

Fourteen Fraternities and Twenty-Seven
Dormitories in
Tag Football Leagues.
This year, as in past years, the
University is doing its part to
carry out the intramural slogan,
"every student in some form of
healthful exercise." With this
in mind, G. E. Shepard, director,
and R. Mae Gray, assistant di
rector of the department of in
tramural athletics, have worked
out a diversified program for
each quarter of the current year,
in an effort to interest as many
of the students as possible. Mac
Gray is now. spending much of
his time inorganizing the fra
ternities and dormitories for the
annual tag football tournament.
Last year sixty percent of the
students took part in some form
of athletics and it is hoped that
still a larger, percentage will par
ticipate this year
Tag Football First Sport
Starting Monday and lasting
six weeks a series of tag foot
ball games between the various
dormitories and fraternities will
take place. Fourteen dormitor
ies and twenty-seven fraterni
ties, making a total of forty-one
teams; are entered in the tourna
ment. Each team will play
eight games, then the dormitory
winner will play the fraternity
winner to decide the champion
of the campus. All men not on
the varsity or freshman football
squad and who have not received
a varsity award in football are
eligible to play for their dormi
tory or fraternity team. Many
teams are now preparing for the
tournament and are holding
practices at various places on the
campus. Other dormitories and

Will Be Shown in Memo
rial Hall.
A grid-graph report of the
Carolina-Vanderbilt game will
be shown this afternoon in Me
morial hall beginning at 3;30
o'clock. The price of admission
has been reduced to twenty-five
cents, instead of the fifty which
was charged last year. This is
said to be the actual cost price.
and the Athletic Association will
merely break even on the total
receipts.
The grid-graph which was
used last year has been entirely
remodeled, with a new coat of
paint as well as a new lighting
system. The device is placed on
the stage of the hall, making it
possible for each spectator to
follow the game without any in
convenience of having to stand
up to watch the plays.
In Use Several Years
The plan of showing the' re
port of the game on the grid
graph was first introduced here
some five or six years ago, and
has been used since that time at
varied intervals. It is doubtful
as to whether the Athletic As
sociation will clear any profits,
unless the size of the crowd is
exceptionally large.
JSach play is telegraphed di
rect from the sidelines at Nash
ville and is reported on the grid
graph by the use of lights. When
anyone carries the ball a light
goes on by the side of the man's
name who is doing the running.
