Five thous and football enthusiasts this afternoon saw Georgia Tech and Washington & Lee battle to a 7 to 7 tie. Neither side scored aer the first quarter and it was one of the hardest games ever seen here. Washington & Lee were enabled to score by blocking a punt followed by line plunges.

Will Start Spirited Race Monday. Twelve Hundred Goal. A spirited race between two rival automobiles is to start Monday morn ing, both fortified with the material that will furnish the power to speed over the course of 1,200 miles to win the goal, which will be 1,200 mem bers. Which will be victorious in the race largely depends upon the cham pions and the friends of the autos en gaged in the contest. Twelve hundred miles, represent ing 1,200 members, each mile covered in the race means a member gained. The friends of the association are loathe to lose a single member now on its books, because every member , is held as a friend and any organiza tion is dependent upon its friends not only for support from the contribu tions, but because a real friend gain ed is of more value through the in terest and sympathy manifested in the cause than the money contrib uted. The association is firmly establish ed in our midst. Its numerous activ ities are real factors in the social ser vice development of the communitj'.

The extension department is doing really splendid work in its numerous clubs among women and children who are unable to visit the Association building because of their daily tasks, but during the noon lunch hour are visited and many activities engaged in for the purpose of recreation and diversion. The association is in the commu nity to meet the demands of the women and through its physical de partment and gymnasium offers phy sical instruction. Tho educational classes were planned to meet the need of those desiring instruction in any line of do mestic art, or a business course for u nominal sum. There is a welcome awaiting any one Interested in this great work to become a member and an invitation is extended to all to come and find out the magnitude of the work under taken, "for with knowledge comes understanding and with understand ing comes sympathy." The workers in the campaign will meet daily during the campaign, be ginning at 5 o'clock, to compare re sults and make returns of the day's work. The following is a list of the two committees who will take part in the campaign to secure members: Champions of the Fords Miss Du ralde Borden, Miss Erla Swain, Miss ,LW ifrm FUNERAL SERVICES . H.
