REFORMS AMONG
 AMATEUR ATHLETES
Further Conservation of Amateur Spirit Goal
 Aimed At

New York, November 15.-Reforms of radical nature in the policy and constitu- tion of the Amateur Athletic union will New York on November %, 1t was learn ed today. Further conservation of the amateur spirit and character of the ath- letics fostered by the American Athletic union is the goal aimed at in the proposed reforms. The athlete whose services are bought by means of inducements which arc the instruments of lowering the nor als of the game must cease. Reforms are proposed. It is provided an athelete who leaves club affiliated with the American Athletic union must remain un- attached for two years before again be- coming eligible to membership in anoth- CT club. second rule provides that no student in a college or university either as an under graduate post graduate may belong to an athletic club other than that of his own college.
 Another provision suggested is that no athlete may engage in a contest under the association rules unless he has previous iy filed with the registration committee of his district a bona fide certificate of four months residence in that district. He may not enter a championship contest until he has had certificate of residence of six months in the district.
 "The object of these rules" said an off cial in the association, who is interested in the reforms, lis to remove the scandal threatening the association every now and then. There is no denying that when small club develops a good athlete there is a rush by the big and wealthy organiza- tions to take him away from the club This means professionalism in a thinly yelled form since it gets clubs bidding against each other and encourages the athlete to lend himself to the organization making the best offer It prevents the small club that brought him out from profiting by the find This condition is found in purely athletic clubs as well as in colleges, and it is the condition we de- sire to have stamped out The new rules are designed to make it possible only through frauds"

ALABAMA AND SEWANEE
 TO HAVE FINE BATTLE

From reports that emanate from the training camps of the Alabama and Sewanee teams. both are expecting a great struggle on Saturday when the two line up against each other in Bir- mingham. The time is 3 o'clock Sat urday, and the place is the fair grounds.
 As heretofore mentioned, Alabama looks the better of the two aggrega- tions from the standpoint of compara- tive scores. That is, Sewanee played Tulane and defeated them by the score of 10 to 0, while Alabama romped on them for 22 to 0. victory. However, it Is to be understood that Sewanee x-yas not in the best of condition when the two met They had just taken over 8 thousand mile jaunt to Texas and were stiff and sore from the effects of the journey. On the other hand, Ala hama defeated Tulane, at Tuscaloosa,

 Coach Graves has expressed himself as being confident, but expressed no opinion as to the score. Sewanee has not been heard from in the way of a prophecy

 Birmingham outweights the Howard CTS, but the margin is very close, in fact, they have nearly the same aver age weight. In speed, Howard and Bir- mingham rank about the same, but in Zielminski, Howard has the swiftest man of all. Zlelminski is, perhaps, the Fastest man that Howard ever had.
