Crimson mainstays are serving their first season in college football Notably among them are Maynor at center, Rogers at right tackle, Sanford at right guard. Whittlesley at left tackle, Stevenson at right end and Johnson, Brannon, Hovar- ter and Taylor in the backfield Whether experience will tell and the Jackets prove superior generals in next Saturdays con- flict is q matter of speculation. The Criin- son. however. are fresh from a verdict over an eleven of veterans-for Sewanee had practically no novlces in her lineup and many believe the AIabamians can duplicate the performance in Atlanta.
 It is generally conceded that Alabama would not have defeated Tech last Sat urday had the Jackets been placed op- posite them on Redwood Field Whether the Crimson can emerge with victory, then, it seems, depends upon whether Coach Noojin can instill the additional drive and power needed to make up the difference between Tech and Sewanee. Noojin undoubtedly can add more power. but it is problematical whether he can add enough. While Alabama went against Sewanee without preparing an alibi in case of defeat, the Crimson was virtually shot to pieces, Injuries and sickness kept four veterans from the scrap Their presence alone will make the Crimson p per cent stronger Saturday.
 Alabama students are keenly alive to the situation and plans are under way to run a special car to Atlanta. For those who remain at college arrangements have been made to have them hear tho returns of the battle at a matinee. The Airdome theatre will be thrown open to the collegers that afternoon and they will be allowed to follow the battle in full detail.

HARD SCRIMMAGE

most formidable lineup that they have presented this season.
 I, Coach Caton also worked his men for all they were worth and the How ard huskies showed the effects when they abandoned the field after dark. A scrimmage between the best scrub team that ever represented the Aoaptists and the varsity uncovered the same effects as the miniature struggle at the Meth odist camp. The scrubs were unable to budge the varsity line in any manner. Coach Caton is thoroughly pleased with the way his warriors are showing and is confident that victory will be re- corded Saturday by his fellows
 The game Saturday will undoubtedly be good one. For the past nine years the rival colleges. Howard and Owen ton, have battled on the gridiron. In seven of these contests the Baptists re- turned the winner, while Owenton cap tured the honors in one and drew tie in the game last year.
 Howard outweighs the Methodists by about 10 pounds to the man. To over come this handicap the coaches at Owenton are emphasizing the fact of speed. It is rumored that the Method ists will rely on the forward pass, end rrr- trick -,lc--- At howard. Coach Caton, a pupil of Coach Donahue of Auburn, will use the driving tactics Of the famous Auburn coach. Will the Methodists lineup be able to stop the onrush of Howard backs? If they can, a victory will surely come their way.
 The officials for the contest are as follows: Referee, Streit ,-Auburn); um- pire. Brumage (B. A. Cl; head lines man, Land (Oklahoma.) The game will start at 2:so. The admission will be 50 ents.

With the interest increasing each day at Howard and Birmingham college, the annual scrap at Redwood Saturday aft ernoon promises to be the best ever fought between the two gridiron teams. Practice yesterday was terminated only by darkness. Coaches at both camps held secret practice, trying out new plays and putting the finishing touches on their elevens for what promises to be their most important game on their schedule.
 Heavy scrimmage was held at both camps. At Owenton, Coaches Pinson and Watkins, assisted by "Chigger' Brown, an old Sewanee star, worked on the backfield especially. Speed'' was the by-word The Methodists will at tempt to offset the heavy Howard team by their speed and thus far have ac- complished great results. Gillem was out in uniform yesterday afternoon for the first time this week, and although still stiff from the effects of his injured leg. worked hard throughout the after noon. The remainder of the team is in wonderful condition.
 The scrimmage between the scrubs and the varsity showed the strength of the Methodists' line. Out of IS first downs, the scrubs were able to gain only five yards. No end runs or trick plays were attempted. The varsity re- maine1 on the defense during the en- tire struggle. Not a man on the Method- ist squad Is suffering from any in juries in any manner at the present and unless something unforeseen hap pens to the squad between now and the time for the batatle Saturday, the Meth odists will enter the battle with the
