When it is 12 o'clock noon in

and 4 a.m. of the same day in
London. Shanghai is made up
of several municipalities in
cluding the International Set

city in the world in point of
population, and no less than
forty-seven nationalities are
numbered among -the foreign
population.
Although it is 13 miles up

:'s considred one of the world's
great seaports.
Arriving on a steamer, the
traveler is landed at the Cus

the waterfront of Shanghai.
Here are a number of inviting
shade trees, and behind the
trees are the oroud modern

MARS HILL, Oct. 29. (Special)
Fans who saw Davidson in action here
Saturday saw one of the best pa9ingr
attacks in the state. Time and time
aigain they would complete passes for
short gains; one registered their only
touchdown. For three quarters Mara
Hill's running attack was stopped al
most (before it started, but in the
fourth quarter the game turned and
yard after yard was reeled off b
Greer, Wirtz and Jones. Clark at
the opportune moment threw one in
to the end zone which was caught by
Stines. Wirtz kicked goal, the score
being Mars Hill, 7, Davidson 6. It
would have been almost impossible
to have staged a game more thrilling;
or one with a mre dramatic finish.
After having been outplayed for
three quarters. Mars Hill took com

last quarter and as the final whistle
