In one of the hardest fought games wit

Predestinarians yesterday afternoon at
West End 10 to 0. On account of a late
start but three-quarters of the game could
be concluded. At the time the ball was

ing the game both teams resorted to very
strenuous tactics and charges Of smuggling
were made--though not sustained. But
every one around the field bore witness
that it was the toughest battle pulled off
in Birmingham this year.
Birmingham was the heavier by about
six pounds to the man, and Admission was
further handicapped on account of the
inability of Frank Allen, its star, to par
ticipate. But the visitors were good fight
ers, and in the third quarter, In which
no scoring was done, played as we'll as
tho locals. In Wilson, Admission has an
excellent punter, and his work far sur
passed that of Cook of Birmingham. The
teams had fine repertoires of formations
and used them to advantage. Both

their class.

to Succeed Mr..
Fuller.

Magnolia Mass, July 29.-Associate
Justice William H. Moody, OF the
United States Supreme Court, has def
nitely stated that he will announce his
retirement from the bench prior to the
expiration OF the enabling act passed
in his behalf by the last Congress.
This act expires the middle Of Novem-
ber.
In order that the President might
be relieved of any embarrassment due
to conflicting reports OF Justice
Moody's intentions, 1t is said that the
jurist some time ago informed Mr..
Taft OF his purpose to quit the bench.
The President has twice been at Mag
nolia to see Justice Moody since he
came to Beverly. and on both occa-
sions urged him to take all tho time
he desired in making up his mind.
Justice Moody replied that his decis-
ion was irrevocable.
Relies on Complete Rest.
Justice Moody's health Is improving,
but he feels he will not be strong
enough to assume the arduous duties
Of the coming term. which is to be
taken up with the most serious ques-
tions that probably ever have been
submitted to the tribunal. He will
retire in the hope that a complete
rest for while. devoid Of all wor-
ries as to his future status, may re-
store him to full strength. President
Taft cordially expresses this hope.
The President now faces the respon-
sibility of appointing two associate
justices of the Supreme Court and des-
ignating Chief Justice.
Hughes for Chief Justice
Advices from Beverly are to the ef-
feet that the President has not
changed his attitude with respect to
the chief justiceship. Governor
Hughes still appears 10 have the feld
practically to himself:
Mr. Taft undoubtedly will take the
full time between now and the meet
ing of Congress In December in max
ing his selections.
Whenever the subject of Supreme
Court appointments is broached to the
President he reiterates the statement
he made in a st. Louis speech last
spring that he regards the designation
of Supreme Court justices as the most
solemn Of his duties. Mr.. Taft al
ready has given considerable thought
to the two new vacancies. He has a
group Of men in mind. Nand after
weighing all the circumstances. will
finally pick out the two whom he cons
siders best suited from every point Of
view. In the meantime, however. he
is not adverse to hearing the views Of
the leading bar associations and law
yers throughout the country, as he
believes the subject cannot be too
fully considered and thrashed over.
