Professor Hale and his assistants
have continued their fruitful investi-
cations of this subject, and during the

hence the existence Of the suns gen

represented by these lines are iron

that the vertical intensity of the gen

For Many Reasons Far More Effective
Than Attack by Submarine
May Be Used in the En-
ropean War.

The navy department is considering
the feasibility of using aeroplanes to
deliver flying fish torpedoes as pro-
posed by Rear Admiral Fiske. To
drop bombs is far more difficult than
it would be to start flying torpedo,
for a bomb must be let loose exactly
over the ship at the same speed at
which the ship is moving and that is
diffico alt because of the air currents
and because the ship does not hold q
steady course and will, moreover, de
fend itself with guns. Submarines
are handicapped by these and other
things, one being their slower speed
But with the aerial torpedo, the same
weapon as now Is to be held ,rigidly
below the aeroplane, with its heaG
pointed forward and the projectile is
to be released by a lever. When it
drops into the water it sinks to the
depth for which it has been set and
shoots forward to the ship
A night attack is presumed, though
a day attack can also be made. The

until he gets within 10 or Is feet of the
water at the side of the ship he means

1.500 yards from it. With g. pull of his
lever the torpedo is then released

yards a good torpedo expert can hi,
a 6OO-foot ship every time.
The ship, 1t is argued. cannot see the

The Birmingham college football team scrimmaged with the Central High school yesterday afternoon on Munger field, in order to condition themselves for the Marion game which will be played at Ma rion on Turkey Day. The boys have been idle quite a while, but got down to seri- ous work yesterday.
 Judging from the way they Spilled" the High school boys, Marion will have to hustle to land the bacon. Birmingham realizes that they will have to go the limit and with good, honest efforts they can prepare themselves to go the limit.
 This will be the last game for the Bir- mingham boys this season and they have not fared as well as they would have liked, but every one seems to be satisfied with the record up to the present writ ing. The coaches have been bothered with great deal of raw material this year and have whipped together a fairly good team. Two or three members have al- ready vouched that they would be on hand next year and do their best to produce a winning team for the followers of the Old Gold and Black.

RIVALS PREPARING FOR FINAL BATTLE
 OF FOOTBALL SEASON
Bear" Reports From Mississippi Cause Ala bama Warriors to Start Practicing- Coach Robins Will Have Strong Team-Day Will Be Known as VandeGraaff
 Day" in Honor of Famous
 Punter

According to the latest advices from the University of Mississippi and the University of Alabama, both football teams are expecting a gruelling strug- gle at Redwood Field on Thanksgiv- Ing. The Crimson were expecting a "cinch" in the Mississippi lads but when the six barred regulars were per- mitted to play against Alabama and every member of the squad reported in perfect condition, Coach Noojin set his men down to the first real workouts since the Texas game
 For the first time this season Mis- slssippi will present their whole strength. The way in which the team has showed in practice during the past week has caused enthusiasm to reach it's highest point at the college.
 The problem that most seriously questions the success of the Crimson, which was regarded a sure fact a week ago but now equally disputed, Is, will the secondary defense of the Crimson be able to break up the open plays of the invaders? Unless remarkable improvement has taken place since the Sewanee game, the forward pass should pe easy to complete on Alabama. It is not denied at Mississippi that Coach Robins eleven will rely on the open play entirely. Coach Robins has sev- era1 speedy men in his backfield and their success on skfrting the Crimson ends as was done in Texas with ease Is a matter that will be settled in the game.
 Alabama is the favorite in the bet ting, although the odds have decreased during the past few days and are al most even at the present. Most of the squad is in good condition with the exception of Whittesley and Sanford, both injured in the Georgia Tech game. Alabama has a wonderful punter in Bully VandeGraaff and the premier tackle of the south will play his last football game on southern gridiron. The day will be especially named after the giant tackle for his valuable serv- ices to the Crimson during the past season.
 "vandeGraaff day. will be the pass
