 We have some fine material" said Coach Caton yesterday, "and we expect to give Alabama a tough fight. Camp bell Is showing up in good form in Rob- inson's old position, and if he keeps a cool head and handles his men right there is no reason why we should not make a good showing.

LEADERS IN FEDERAL
 DRAWING CLOSER

Chicago. September 2s.-The three Federal league leaders tonight were running so close that Pittsburg had only points advantage in the per- centage column over St. Louis, which was crowded into third place by losing to Kansas City while Chicago defeated Pittsburg.
 So close are the leaders that tomor- rows game might upset all three po- sitions. If Pittsburg should lose and the other two teams win, Chicago would lead. and St. Louis would re- sume second place. If Pittsburg and St. Louis should win and Chicago lose. Chicago would be poor third.
 With Pittsburg and Chicago fighting each other, St. Louis apparently should have the best chance for victory, as it already has won more games than the others and has fewer to play.
