ATHLETIC CLUB DEFEATS
 BESSEMER BY 50 TO 15
Fancy and Japanese China

Starting out upon new season last night, the Birmingham Athletic clubs basketball team defeated the Bessemer Athletic club by the score of 50 to 10. The game, although it was one sided, was not a dull affair, for the lads from Bessemer were were ever on the alert, and kept the Athletic boys busy during the entire contest. Both teams showed lack of practice and organization, and the team work was, of course, not up to the stan dard.
 The game abounded in roughness, foul ing and other qualities that did not help. However, there was no display of tenn per, for the boys were eager for victory, and that was all. The referee called very few fouls, and often holding, pull ing and showing was engaged in. Espe- cially noticeable was the work of the center on one of the teams. When the referee would blow his whistle and put the ball in play, the center would push the other center away from the ball, but he was never penalized for the infringe ment on the rules.
 Although the teams have had but little practice, and this occasion was the first in which the complete team had been to- gether, the game was interesting, and never did it seem as a runaway strug- gle. The Athletic club took advantage of the game and tried out several of the new men. Among the newcomers were Sea right, Strange and McGowan, who has competed in the color series. The individual star of the game was Satterfield for the Athletic club, while McGowan also played commendably Sat terfield was accurate in his passing, quick in his headwork, and marvelously accu- rate in shooting for the basket He made 21 of the points for the Athletic club. He will make the Athletic club one of the most conscientious and clever players that 1t has ever had, and he looms up as a southern star.
