lucky and Louisiana State university.
 In Birmingham next fall the Uni versity of Alabama ~will meet on the gridiron the following four teams: Howard, Georgia Tech, Auburn and Tennessee. Inasmuch as Auburn will have one or more dates, it is certain that Birmingham enthusiasts will have an opportunity of seeing rare football when the fall of this year rolls around. Alabama will play Georgia in Mont gomery again. and the Louisiana State university in Mobile. No other games have as yet been agreed upon.
 Dr. Pollard could not say wheth CT tn Alabama team would make the eastern trip again. Although he refused to be interviewed, it was gathered from his indirect remarks that things are stil in a shadow of doubt at Tuscaloosa. He would not state whether he woud continue to coach the team or not. As is known, there has been considerable gossip to the effect that Dr. Pollard would not return to Tuscaloosa after the conclusion of the ensuing base ball season. Alumni of the university in Birmin gham consider pr. Pollard tho best coach in the south, and believe that the university would make an ir- calculable mistake were Dr. Pollard 0 go elsewh ere.

Hge-HeYaId Team WiU
 Weet Ray Aggregation

While it is true that the winter winds are blowing and bowling ceaselessly, the fans of the city have clamored until the baseball team of The Age-Herald has ar ranged for a game at West End park next Monday between the teams of The Age-Herald and Johnny Ray, whose the atrieal company is at the Bijou.
 As is remembered, these two teams met last summer and the victory. having been claimed by both aggregations, still hangs in doubt. However, Monday afternoon the result will be known. Manager Kenny brook of The Age-Herald team in an exclusive interview last night promised to spring big surprise It is rumored that he will have a pitcher from the big leagues to face the Ray aggregation Asked if the man was "Rube" Waddell, who has been in Alabama since the close of the American league season last fall, Manager Kennybrook. smiling knowingly, only shook his head
 Much interest is being taken in the game and a large attendance is expect ed. Henry Meek will play first base for The Age-Herald, and he has agreed to re- peat his one-act comedy of batting the ball over the fence. At the request of both aggregations. Bill AK, one of The Age-Herald sporting writers, will score. the game. Ray will furnish the umpire, Manager Kennybrook has barred 'Monte' Semon.
 The Age-Herald team, without the pitcher. is as follows: Collier, c. f.;

ent system he considers it expedie r. to reduce the present volume of de- posit of public money in banks. The maturing per cent bonds will alsl require funds.
 The department" says he, lis firmly convinced that the cash balance now on fand IS not more than adequate to meet all these requirements and that no well founded criticism car lie against it's Iolicy of increasing tne balance tenn porarily by the sale of securities witt, the incidental purpose of preventing grave financial disaster"
 On the subject of remedial legisla- tion the secretary says that in every measure of relief the treasury h IS taken, he has felt that he was bourd under our existing fiscal and monetary system, to have regard, not simply u the operations of the treasury, but 70 their effect upon financial conditions of the country. He has not assumed this obligation willingly and would be gla1 to be relieved of 1t at least in part oy suitable legislation, and if recent events should lead to intelligent legislation tending to adapt the movement of cur rency more nearly automically to the requirements of business it would be a source of qualification to the secre- tary and would greatly diminish the sense of responsibility which must weigh heavily upon any occupant oe the office under conditions sucn as those of the recent crisis.
