AND BAR
 WILL GET THE GAN

Nashville. November o.-(Special.)-In statement made here today. ". G. Hirsig, president of the local club, said that 'Rcwdy' Elliott, the pugnacious catcher of last seasons Volunteers, will not wear that uniform next year. Elliott was of little use to the Nashville club last sea son, refusing to keep himself in condition on account of his fondness for the white lights and high balls. Coupled with his dissipation he succeeded in wrecking the team by creating internal dissensions. Eirsig does not know exactly what meth cd he will use in disposing of Elliott and on account of his reputation as a bad ae- tor it may be a difficult matter to arrange Q trade. Teddy Bair, the moist ball pitch CT, will also be missing when the spring round ID comes. Bar had the distinction of having the poorest average of any pitcher in the league last year and hfs work was great disappointment after his splendid showing in 1911. The ax Is very certain to fall on the heads of Lat timore, Second Baseman Noise, who was recently secured from Chattanooga, and one of the other pitchers

INTEREST HIGH IN
 ALAbAMA-SEWANEE
 GAME SATURDAY
Crimson Victory Over Mis- sissippi Gives Added Stim- ulus to Its Tilt With
 Mountain Tigers

Alabama's victory over Mississippi Fri day gives an added stimulus to the Se- waneelAlabama game which takes place in Birmingham next Saturday. Mississip- pi upquestionably has strong team this season. Thus far they have played the Vanderbilt Ccmmodores the stiffest game which those warriors have met in the south this season. Vanderbilt beat them 24 to 0, while the heavy Georgia squad, backed by the great McWhorter, were only able to hold the McGuginites to a 4G to score. Alabama won only after one of the hardest fought games ever wit messed on a Tuscaloosa gridiron, but 1t was victory. and that is the word which counts when 1t comes to comparing teams.
 That the crimson warriors have been steadily travelling the comeback" path is no longer questioned. With an abund- ance of material on hand, most of which was new, Coach Graves at first had con siderable trouble in weeding out his men, and ir getting his final choice into good condition during the early season. If ac- counts from the games that Alabama has played recently can be considered, the Crimson machine that defeated Missis- sippi Friday, is far different aggrega- ton than the one which met an Ign on,in- ious defeat at the hands of the light Yel- low Jackets. It is seldom that Alabama has the opportunity to meet a southern football team lighter than it's own, and it is indeed a rare case when its team meets defeat at the hands of a lighter aggregation. This, however, is what han- pered when Tech defeated them, and Ala bamas coaches were quick to see that something was radically wrong. Changes in the lineup were effected. new men added to the squad, and gradually the defenders of the Crimson have been showing to the front.
 The first appearance which they will make in Birmingham this season will be on next Saturday, when they meet the mountain lads of Sewanee at Redwood Field. When these two teams clash here for gridiron honors, there should result one of the very hardest fought contests which the southern grioiron has seen this season. Of practically even weight, both fast, and both bearing the reputation of being two of the fercest fighters in the south. the mix up should be one well worth witnessing.

WOLGAST-MANDOT FIGHT HUGE JOKE
 THINKS BILL AK
Age-HeraId Man Says Vol gast Will Win Easily
 Next Time
By BILL AK

New Orleans. November 9.-(Special.)- When one thinks of it he grows indignant in that crooks have put horse racing out of business. Racing at one time was un- occasionally the king of sports. and the sport of kings. We have 1t no more, all because a number of money loving marplots got in the habit of manipulating results.
 Boxing is a great sport. It is fast pass ing out of existence even as is has al- ready passed out of good repute. There is no question but that fatal blow has heen struck boxing by boxing crooks. At least so much has been done that the public can no longer swallow what is served up to it, or told to it for truth.
 Down here this week we had classy little bout between Mandot and Wolgast. The fight was good, enough, but under lying all one could not have failed to have seen the handwriting on the wall. The manipulators had done their work nothing crooked, understand-but had done their work, just the same. AS a result, there is every reason to believe T cisco, that much money will be made, and that Wolgast will win a complete vic- tory.
 Tn the first place, it was decided that there should be no decision in New Or leans Wolgast had a title at stake, and did not care to have that title awarded on newspaper decisions in the home city of his opponent And furthermore, Vol gast did not desire to extend himself for 1t was his purpose that the fight result in draw, or an unofficial and imma- terial verdict in favor Of his opponent rendered by his opponents neighbors. This was natural For when the two meet again, the New Orleans result will be ad- vcstised throughout the country and many good American people will spend good American dollars to see the fight for the championship title, it being understood that the claimant, some time previous in New Orleans had outpointed the title holder
 Then surrounded by thousands of expec- tant people who have paid in their tribute to the cleverness of the manpulators and politicians, Wolgast without much ado will proceed to dispose of Mandot.
 He can do it, never fear-this despite the contention of my friends who are writing sport for the New Orleans papers. Mondat iso a nifty young fighter. But he is not Of championship timber. It would re- quire a serious accident in his favor to win for him the title. It is all iol1e-a nuge, monumental joke, one which will hasten the end of the game.

THORPE STARS
 IN ARMY DEFEAT

West Point. N. T., November Scar iisle defeated the Army here today at football by a score of 27 to 6. The In- dians outplayed the cadets at every stage of the game and only once in the early period did the army get with in striking distance of the visitors goal line. This time they scored. The cadets were baffled by the open field play of the Redskins and great gains were made by Thrope and Arcasa through the army tackles and around the ends.
 Thrope's work was the feature of the game. He tore through the army again and again for long gains. His 50 yard run in the last half through the entire army eleven was the most spec tacular of the day.
 Army scored after the Indians had been penalized to their 25 yard line for holding.
