T>HE fan meeting Of the South
ern league will be held in
Little Rock ana not in Bir-
mingham, as was first announced.
This change is made because of the
illness of the wife of Judge W. NJ.
Kavanaugh, president of the South
ern league. President Kavanaugh
asked that the change be made If
agreeable to the club owners and
naturally all consented. despite the
fact that it makes the trip longer
for every club president except one.
1t is likely that the spring meet
ing will be held in birmingham, as
it is customary to hold one meet
ing each year in the city which won
the pennant the previous season.
ONLY one point of interest will
come up at the Southern league
electing officers. and that will be
meeting except the Formally OF
the question of the salary limit.
Al the recent meeting OF the Ma
tional Association of Minor Leagues
in Milwaukee the salary limit ques-
ton was taken up, but the way it
was handled was joke. The rep
resentatives of the various leagues
knew well that no national associa-
ton could handle the matter of sal
airy limits and that each league
should be allowed to legislate for
itself. SO naturally nothing was
done
THE matter Of a salary limit is
therefore up to the Southern
league, in all it's pristine freshness
an old question that is new with
each succeeding fall
The local notion is that it is all
right to let we'll enough alone.
Charley Franks scheme of q
sliding scale" has met with no
warm response from Bill Smith.
Franks idea is to make it possible
for a club to carry as many as
eighteen men. II the club carries
eighteen its salary limit is $500.
If it carries seventeen its limit is
$1,000. if it carries sixteen the limit
drops to $4,000 and 50 on down to
thirteen men and q $4,000 limit.
That's the sliding scale idea. 1t
would also be provided under the
Frank scheme, that no player
should be paid over $3.50 q month
and not under 500.
GAYS Bill Smith: "a don't like
Franks plan, In the first place
/ don't see any sense in a change.

Harold Ketron Selects Al-Southern Football Team
Names 4 Vandy Men, Georgia and J Auburn

the VanQergraaf family, whose
name is legendary to that college.
just as the Morrison and Brown IT,
tie is in Vanderbilt. In H. Wander
GRAFT we undoubtedly have a grand
little player and the best end in
the South. He runs well with the
ball and is the best ground gamer
that Alabama possesses. His defeu-
sive work is indeed spectacular,
and, moreover, he is the life of his
team. Turner. OF Vanderbilt, and
Gillem of Sewanec, would be my
choice for a second team.
Good HaIfbacks Plentiful.
Now that the line and end places
have been disposed of, we find our
selves confronted with an unusual
amount Of available halfback ma
terial and a scarcity Of good quar-
tiers and fullback men. But few
teams have had the good luck to
possess a quarterback and fullbaCk
Of any special merit this season,
surely none Of the type of Davis
and Morrison of last year. At
half, though, even with an unus-
ual array Of good players, there are
two who loom far above the others,
and these are Hardage, of Van
derbilt, and McWhorter, of Geor-
gia. The Commodore captain is
without q doubt one of the greatest
halfbacks the South has ever, pro-
duced. His carrying the ball has
been Vanderbilt's strongest point,
and in this department of the
game he has had but few equals.
He is a speedy broken field runner
and so extremely fast that he is a
hard man to handle in taclling.
His defensive work is also good,
and he seems TO be the main
strength OF the Eandy team. His
absence in the Auburn game SEEM
ed to take all the fight and dash out
of his team mates. We would have
him captain our all Southern.
At right half we should put the
best half playing in the South, if
not in the entire country. Bob Nc
Whorter. He is as good as Har-
dage in broken field running and
a much harder man to tackle, by
reason of his weight. His line
plunging is also good, while
throughout the year he has been
strong on defense. Those who have
seen him play when in condition
must unquestionably concede Bob
his place on this years all South
ern.
Skies Wins a Job.
With due appreciation of the
work Of Vandergraaf, Of Alabama;
Webb, of Clemson, and Parker Of
Sewa@ee (the last two of whom are
extremely good at line bucking),
the fullback position must go to
Skies, Of Vanderbilt without much
argument He is the best fuIlback
Of the 1912 Southern season, and
one of the best l have seen in this
section in several years. In both
defensive and offensive. his play
ing is good, while in the Auburn
game his line plunging was great.

Southern country.
It's mighty hard 10 keep such
other players as l have mentioned
off the team, for each of them IS
an Al, but all lack some Of the
requisites that mark the stellar
linesman, so I give the other guard
position to Burns, of Auburn, al
though he has played center this
season. Burns has demonstrated,
however, that he can play guard,
this being his regular position here
tofore. His backing up Of the line
was the feature of the Auburn
Vanderbilt game, while his 1856
pounds OF weight and his two years
of experience make him a fit run
ming mate for Peacock.
Tackles Are High Glass.
Now, for an inventory Of the
tackles.
Here we have a better array Of
talent to pick from, for there is
hardly a team in the South that
can't boast of one, if not two,
tackles above the average. But to
any one who has seen the different
teams in action there is but one
conclusion-Lamb, OF Auburn, and
Henderson. of Georgia, are the
players who will plug the tackle
places on the 1912 all-Southern Sc
lections. Donahue's pupil is, with
out a doubt, the pick of the season.
Weighing from ITS to 1870 and hay
ing had three years experience, he
is the mainstay Of the Auburn line
and is a bearcat on both offense
and defense.
Henderson carries more weight
than the Auburn player but is
shorter on experience in college
games He makes up for this in
the ability he has shown in every
department Of the game, He is
exceptionally fast for Il man play
ing this position, and besides
charging like 4 pile driver, he often
rips through the line and throws
the man with the bail for loss.
End Positions Easy.
A the end positions We butt
right into another Vanderbilt man
the very first thing. and what's
more. it's member Of the famous
Brown family. Z. Brown is the
player who will hold down the right
wins. of the line. and We lind it no
hare Job in recommending him. He
IS marked on the score card at 100,
and this is his third year of serr-
ice on Dudley Aeld. His tackling
ON defense makes him a very val
nable man, while his smashing ana
getting down under punts stamp
him as about the best in the couh-
try. He gets the place.
For the other end Of the zine we
must sniff over to Tuscaloosa ana
get acquainted with member OF

A HEAVY CRIMINAL DOCKET
Superior Court Is Grinding Away on
Mass of Petty Cases, and May
Continue Into Next Week.

The superior court has been busy
this week with the biggest criminal
docket in some years. 1t is notice
able fact, however, that most of the
cases are of a minor character, and
that there are fewer felonies for trial
than in long time.
In addition to the cases that were
already on the docket the grand jury
that has just adjourned returned be-
tween so and 80 indictments, and
Judge Worrill thinks it may be nee
essary to have an adjourned term of
two or three days next week. A con-
siderable number of cases have been
disposed of, and a great deal OF judi
cial grist is coming through the hop
per every day
One of the cases of most interest,
especially to farmers, was that OF
Atlas Howard, a we'll known Dawson
negro. who was charged with steal
ing cotton at night from the farm OF
]. NJ. Woodley. Howard entered a
plea of guilty and was given a SEN
tence of eight months in the chain
gang without the alternative of pay
ing a fine.
.Claud Holland, who was for long
time notorious as the keeper of a
blind tiger, and, after serving a SEN
tence of twelve months in the chain
gang, was brought back to jail sever
al weeks ago to await trial on sim
liar charges, entered a plea of guilty,
was fined 500 and other bills
against him mol pressed. He paid
the fine Thursday and was released.

North Georgia BIockaders i'm Defiance

Murder When Informed On.


ATLANTA.-The illicit making
OF whiskey in the North Georgia

ties, and Judge Newman has an
nounced that henceforth no mercy,
but only stern justice, will be melted

In times past the federal court

and his wife was badly hurt, while
