ALL-AMERICAN END TO
COACH MERGERS TEAM

For number of years Mercer has
not had football team and therefore
when the faculty gave its consent last
year there was nothing but raw material
from which to select a team. The con-
dtions will be a little better this year
and by next year we hope to have enough
old players and enough of the subs of
last year and this year to make ourselves
felt in the southern championship.
Winning football games this year viii
depend largely on which team has the
smartest coach. The new rules will elm
mate to q great extent many OF the
mass plays and much of the roughness,
and more scientific playing will result.
There will be less risk of players being
injured and more opportunity for the
man who Thinks quickly to make bril-
liant plays. look for this to be one 81
the best years the south has ever had
in football"

Mr. DuBose came TO Ensley little moro
than three years ago from Gadsden, where
he had been engaged for a short time in
the real estate business. Prior TO that
time he was engaged in banking at Column
biana.
Shortly after coming to Ensley he pur
chased a controlling interest in the First
National bank and WAS made president.
He owned the greater part of the stock.
He soon secured the confidence of the
people and the bank became a prosperous
institution 1t was doing a very good
business up to the time the affairs were
taken in charge by the directors and the
business transferred to the Bank of Ems
ley.
Mr. DuBose was prominent member
and a deacon of the First Presbyterian
church at Ensley. lie was popular in
business social and fraternal circles and
his arrest has been shock to the majori-
ty of people In Ensley and the community.
Since IT was learned yesterday that the
directors came personally to the rescue,
these gentlemen are being warmly conf
mended by the people of Ensley for their
good work for the public good.
