HIGH SCHOOL MEETS
 MARION TOMORROW

The Marion institute defenders will be in Birmingham tomorrow afternoon to try hands with the football eleven of the Birmingham High school on the West End gridiron. Interest in the game is great and anticipation runs high as to the outcome. The contest promises to be interesting, to say the least
 Marion comes forth this year with a great team, and will no doubt make most of the teams of it's class in the state hustle for the championship If the squad comes up to it's reputation here there will be little lacking in the way of tactics, trick plays and head work tomorrow afternoon, and this, with their superior weight is an as- surance that the military boys will pretty well hold their own
 The High school team, on the other hand, has an excellent record. They have been outweighed by every team they have played this year. yet only one squad has scored against them. The team is an exceptionally fast one and in the games of the past the head work of the team as d whole has been conservative. Their trick plays, too, are new. The average weight of the team Is considerably less than their opponents of tomorrow.
 The High school has played several games with Marion and has in a ma iority of the contests got the hot end of the proposition. They go up against tn em this year, however, with perhaps the best team ever turned out, and there is no doubt but what the game will be close which ever way 1t goes.

 His AeropIane.

The machine was under perfect control and displayed marvelops equilib- rum, making the turn on an even keel.

Mir. Farman all but succeeded in accomplishing the task on Saturday. when his aeroplane travelled more than a kilo- meter, but descended 150 yards before the circle was completed.
