work getting in condition for the
opening of the season in the next few
days.
This will be the first time in sew
eral years that either of these two
schools has had a basket ball team,
but the conditions this year seem
bright for a revival of this game and
the interest already manifested in
sures very successful season. The
spirit of rivalary between the two
local schools is well-known and the
fact that they will play a series of
three games adds especial interest to
the season. Prof. c. r. WEIGH is
coaching the High School and Mr..
Volney Philips will attempt to guide
the Classicals to victory. Both of
these men have had considerable ex-
perience with the game and are we'll
fitted to get the best there Is out
of their men.
The Classicals have had several
weeks practice and will open their
season in BreWton on Jan. IA and Is,
when they will meet the strong Brew
ton Collegiate Institutes team for
two games. What the outcome will be
is very much in doubt and while
the Classicals cannot be expected 10
show their real form in their first
game, they nevertheless hope to give
"a good account of themselves and
will return ready to give the High
School a battle royal in the first
home game on Jan. %.
In a practice game with the fast
Employed Boys team of the Y. M. G.
A. last evening the ClassicaIs did
some exceptionally good playing and
ran away with the long end of a 81
to II score. While their play was un-
steady at times, it was equally. bril-
liant at others and they bid fair to
make some of their rivals hustle be-
fore the season ends.
While the Classical team has not
been selected yet, Coach Philips will
take the following men to Brewton
Friday: Lannon (captain), Finch, H.
Vinson, e. Vinson, Boyett and Motta.
The High School team, with Cole
man for captain, expects to develop
la good team. They have been grant
ed the use of the Y NJ. G. A gym
Inasium and are practicing regularly
The following are showing up well
thus far: Bell, Coleman, Yates, Shut
tleworth, Forbes and Fell. Hall will
also probably be found in the lineup
later on.
Both schools are keen for the COM
ing trays and roofing squads will be
organized by students of each insti-
tuition to cheer their respective team
to victory.
The first contest will probably be
held in the Classical School gym
nasium and will formally open the
season in Pensacola.

MILES
OF ADDITIONAL
CEMENT WALKS
BOARD OF WORKS AT SPECIAL
MEETING YESTERDAY ORDER
ED SPECIFICATIONS PREPARED
FOR NEW CONTRACT.

Advertisements for a minimum OF
twenty and a maximum of thirty miles
of new cement sidewalks were order
ed prepared yesterday at 5 p. m.
at a special meeting of the board OF
public works. This will provide the
city with a total Of sixty miles ap-
proximately of the fine cement grade
of walks which are now being con-
structed.
Chairman Jennings and Messrs
Schad, Fisher and Dr. Blocker attend
ed the meeting. 1t was called for the
special purpose of taking up the side
walk question, and upon this an
nouncement being made, it was NOV
ed and seconded that the city engi-
neer be instructed to prepare plans
and specifications, and the city at
torney be requested to draw up a
contract, for the construction of at
least twenty and not more than thir-
ty miles of sidewalks inside of the
limits which have been fixed. The
motion prevailed.
When the engineer is ready with
the report the advertisements will be
placed and bids will be opened on
March 2, 1910, at noon. This will be
on a Wednesday. 1t will afford q
SAduSS LII tlS oS1CpICd Ulu vi UluS
to go to the council that night for
confirmation.
The bids will he so worded that the
entire lot of walks shall be complet-
ed between April l, 1910, and April l,
1911.
Other Contract Up.
The contract which the city en-
tered into a year ago with the Wild
don Construction Company expires
about February 1 of this year. The
board decided that the city now has
caught the good sidewalk craze and
the body is going to make that craze
go as far as possible. Therefore, in
addition to providing for the new
contract, the board has decided to
extend the limits for a distance of at
least three blocks northward, and
probably the same distance east and
west. On the north the sidewalk
| limit is Gonzalez street, on the west
Coyle street, and on the east Ninth
avenue.

AN OLD IDEA
Shown to be Absolutely False by Mod
ern Science.

People used to think that badness
was one of those things which are
handed down from generation to gen
Grafton, from father to son-just like
a family heirloom.
Science has shown the falseness of
this belief by proving that badness
itself is not a constitutional disease,
but the result of a germ invasion of
which only Herpicide can effectually
rid the scalp.
Washing only cleans the scalp of
Dandruff, it doesn't kill the germs.
Destroy the cause you remove the
effect
Newbro's Herpicide will do this in
every case. 1t is also a delightful
dressing.
