Sidelights from the Sideline

hamas line both weight and experi- ence. He saw in Joplin the makings of star, and in the Crimson back field men of no mean calibre. Much depended upon Graves. If he could shape this conglomeration of latent prowess into an efficient combination Alabama might prove formidable. If not. Tech might continue the march of victory 1t began by smothering Mercer. How well Graves succeeded is told in the story of Saturdays game.
 To those who witnessed the game Saturday there is little question but what the victory was an earned one. Had Alabama been outplayed through out, or had by unlucky chance snatched opportunities from Tech at critical moments there might have been some doubt as to which team deserved to win. But the Crimson ma chine outplayed it's opponent at every stage. Tech was kept continually on the defensive and with the ball in its territory during most or the game. The Georgia line was ripped into shreds by the terrific charges of YandeGraaff, Burks and Barnett, and had the Crimson back field picked their holes with any degree of readiness the score might have been doubled. True, Tech was overconfident, but it would be folly to say that such spirit dom mated their play as the moments slipped by and they felt their highly touted machine being crushed by d sup posedly weaker rival. Tech was. over confident until early in the third quar- ter when Captain Fielder uncorked his full offense. When this failed Tech was desperate. In but one way was Alabama outplayed-Tech' superb in- reference outclassed that of Graves warriors.
 Alabama's schedule will be watched with considerable interest by Birming- ham admirers. The victory over Tech may mean much, and again 1t may upon the coming battle with the Uni yersity of Tennessee If reports are true. victory over the mountain team will be an acid test for the ability of the Crimson. If Alabama succeeds in winning Saturday. Graves eleven will come to Birmingham with even chances of defeating Sewanee and with the prospects of playing before one of the largest crowds that ever witnessed a gridiron battle in the Magic City.

RAY, DRAFTED BY BARONS.
 HAS GOOD RECORD IN MINORS
By JOHN IT. EVANS

Asheville, N. C., october 1S.-(Special) When the management of the Birmingham Baseball association recently drafted Pitcher Ray of the Winston-Salem team of the Carolina State league, they landed one of the most promising slab artists in the game today. Local fans are only won dering why some of the big league mag mates did not beat the Barons to the prize slab artist.
 Ray led all other pitchers by a wide margin last summer in this swift little league. There is no doubt but that he could make a good showing in the big leagues, and Carolina baseball fanatics ex- pect to see him win a large majority of his games with Birmingham during the season of 1915
 Ray will leave shortly for the home of the Barons to join the team on it's Cuban trip. It will be of interest to the fans of Birmingham to know that Pitcher Ray won an automobile short while ago in popularity contest for players of the Carolina league. Winston-Salem went

H BIRMINGHAM has been the n scene of many gridiron sur 0 prises, but not since the famous victory by Alabama over Washington and Lee in 1910 has football machine so completely upset the dope as did Alabama last Saturday afternoon. The Crimson entered the game with Tech, beaten. There is no doubt of it. It's students expected defeat; its coaches. while not admitting it, had little hopes that victory would lie with the Crimson. Papers had award ed Tech the decision. Previous en- counters had pronounced the Georgia eleven at least three touchdowns su- peror The victory of Alabama startled the south, but none were more surprised than the Crimson war riors themselves.
 Alabama went against Tech as she has gone against practically every s. l A. A. eleven in the south in the past three years-beaten, but deter mined to battle against defeat until the last moment of play. The power or their team startled none more than it did the Crimson warriors them- selves. but 1t awakened in them con- sciousness of superiority and devel- oped confidence which swept opposi- ton before them. Alabama entered the game with Tech a football nonen- ity. It emerged from that game machine capable of furnishing strong that parades the gridirons of Dixie.
 When Coach Heisman of Tech wrote in a letter to The Age-H Herald some days prior to the Alabama-Tech game that he expected a hard-fought battle. the writer ventured the assertion that Heismans representative at Tusca- loosa had seen something which pre- liminary scores had failed to develop. In all probability that representative saw in the ragged eleven which fought spasmodically against Howard unde- veloped power and latent ability, which might easily be whipped Into a winning machine. He saw in Vande- Graaff a punter who has few, if any, equals in the south He saw in Ala

Pennsylvania sprang the real surprise by defeating the Navy in game in which the open play and kicking predominated. Individual rather than team work was responsible for much of the ground gained by both eevens. The Navy's de- feat was severe setback, following so closely upon the loss of the game against Pittsburg week ago.
 The Army's clean-cut victory over the strong Colgate team did not add to the Navy's joys. The West Point players showed strong defensive game, coupled with keenness in following the ball.
 Both Cornell and Pittsburg played up to form. defeating Bucknell and Carlisle.
 Princeton, by clever use of open and close playing, scored a decisive victory over LaFayette.

How to Make Pine Needle (

How to Make Pine Needle Cushions Would Cornerites tell me how to make pine needle cushions? At what time of the year ought the needles be gathered? l should be grateful to anyone who would help me out. Pretty beads may be made from colored beeswax The beads are ing heated on an alcohol lamp. Pink and gold make pretty combination.
 .'DOROTHY G."
 Gather the pine needles when they are at the greenest. They are then richest in resin, which gives them value. Clip from the stems and spread upon papers to dry in a garret or other disused room, where there is plenty of dry air. but where the sun will not strike them Turn and toss several times a day. They should be ready in a week for the pillows. Have an inner lining of stout linen or cotton; fill and sew up securely. The outer cover is of silk or satin and worked to suit the owners taste. A prettily decorated pine pillow is nice Christmas present for a friend who is a shutin. Do not the beads soften when worn next to neck? And in a warm room? Even rose beads, which seem as hard as glass, sometimes discolor the neck or gown if the weather be warm. And there is no way of hardening beeswax Please tell us how this may be.
