Pitts Has Been Running,
Plainsmen Hard For Game
In Montgomery
AUBURN, Ala., Nov. 9.—(Special.) —
A keen contrast was noticed in the
workout of the Auburn varsity
Thursday afternoon, from those on
previous days this week. A sharp
turn from hard scrimmage with the
freshmen to a dummy scrimmage
with Ed Shirling’s charge In prepar
ation for the Tulane Greenlee at
Cramton Bowl Saturday. While the
workout Thursday had been changed
to a lighter degree of rough stuff, no
letup as to the duration of the after
noon's stay on Drake field was no
ticeable. After the soft work against
the scrubs, in which the whole squad
was driven hard, Coach Pitts called
for the white ball and with the large
arc lights shining from one side of 1
the field a 30-minute signal drill was
thrown in for good measure, and the
tentative starters of the coming bat
tle with the Shaughnessy eleven, was
hurried through all the formations.
Very few injuries, all of which are
?f a minor nature, have been noted
in the week’s hard work against the
rats. “Flivver” Ford was the recip
ient of a Charley horse during the
fracas Wednesday afternoon, but the
coaches did not hesitate to send the
big back through the gaits with the
other members of the squad. Indi
cations now are that the Tigers will
meet the team from New Orleans in
as good condition as in the Georgia
game of last week.
