Alabama to Shift
Lineup for Tigers

TUSCALOOSA, ALA, Nov THE
walloping which Sewanee received at
the hands of the Yellow Jackets last
Saturday coupled with the decisive
defeat handed Mississippi College by
Alabama, has put fresh hope in the
hearts OF the supporters of the thin
red line. Coach Graves declines to
talk concerning the game beyond say
ing that it is going to be a hard
fought battle,
There has been "a considerable shift
in the lineup since the disastrous
Georgia game. On account of his
great ability to judge the direction of
plays, w. Vandegraff has been taken
from his tackle position and is now
being used as defense center, while
Captain II. Vandegraff is now play
ing defensive halfback instead Of de-
fensive end. This has considerably

a CIVIL engiieer is a quiet man with
n a thick coat OF sunburn, who
- A spends his time revising climates,
editing the landscape and training up
rivers into lives of usefulness.
In order to do this the civil engineer
does not tear the earth wide open with
a hundred ton spade or perform other
feats Of strength. He IS usually of or
binary size and if he only used his own
hands he could not push around a small
creek, let alone a river. The civil en-
gineer does not rely on muscle When
he desires to move a mountain or wipe
out few hundred square miles Of desert
with a dam he takes his logarithm book
and retires to a quiet spot where he fills
an acre of brown paper full of figures.
AT the end of six months ne emerges with
tired air and a carload of blue prints
and motions to the steamshOvels to come
on up and get busy.
The civil engineer Is not generally
known. This Is because he cannot often
be found on the street corners or IN the
clubs or in the act of decorating grand
opera with a vast white shirt front. He
usually lives m the wilderness IN hip
boots and a last weeks shave. After

100 Years Ago Today

One hundred years ago today the
United States frigate President in
command of the gallant commodore
Rodgers, put out to sea from Boston,
with the sincere hope expressed bv the
newspapers and the citizens Of that place
that she might meet with success in her
search for "the kings one thousand
ships" The president" was one of the
"dreadnoughts" of the American navy in
the war of 1872, but the sailors eonsid-
cred her one of the unluekiest of crafts.
In the summer of 1913 she had partly
redeemed her reputation, however, by
making a cruise that took her almost
within hailing. distance of the shores of
England, and in the course of which
eleven British prizes had fallen to her
lot. Now she was off to try her luck
again. But in this cruise the traditional
i'll luck of the ship seemed to pursue
her remOrselessly. After sailing around
for two months she finally put into New
York without having taken a single
prize.
