AUBURN WORKING HARD FOR CLEMSON BATTLE SATURDAY
HARD WORKOUTS FOR CENTRAL HIGH Important Game Saturday. The Team Is in Fine
 Condition

A hard workout was held yesterday afternoon by Coach T A. Pritchard of Central High school in final prepar- ation for one of the most important games on the local schedule when they meet the Alabama Preparatory school from Tuscaloosa, formerly known as Tillery Brown. Saturday afternoon on Munger field at o'clock.
 The team is in excellent condition and in view of the game that will have great bearing on the state cham pfonship the warriors of the Crimson and White are working the hardest of any time this season. Injuries are handicapping no one and every man will be in the very best condition
 In the last two games that Central High has played they scored 54 points to their opponents [ New formations and trick plays are being put into use. Although Coach Pritchards plans to use only the old play against the former champs" Central High may spring a surprise and develop an en- tirely new style of attack.
 The lineup that faces the visitors will be practically the same team that overwhelmed the opposing teams in the games thus far. The back field will be the same as usual. Coughlin run ming the team at quarter; Dorskey and Kelly at halves, with a pair of good substitutions in Barker and Hahn, and Captain Goodall at full, who promises 10 have his best year since his appear ance in local uniform. At ends, Jones' Mccullough Roberts and Craig are sure to take care of the middle sec fion of the line together with Hall at center. At tackles, the exact men have not been announced but Holmes and Putnam will likely start. with a pair of good subs in Herzog and RoX. The team is averaging around the 15O- pound mark.
 The outlook is good for Central High to register another win and unless the Tuscaloosa boys develop a team con trary to all reports from their camp, another scalp will be added to the Cen tral High warriors Saturday aft ernoon.

MEDICAL INSPECTION

SHEFFIELD, Eng, July 1.-THE
chief medical officer of the government
board of education has notified the
Sheffield school authorities that the
government regards the medical in
spection and supervision of older
schoolboys as matter of supreme
national concern. In the event of
long war, he points out, boys who are
now about fourteen years old may be-
come the source from which recruits
for the army will be drawn. Their
physical well-being is, therefore, of
utmost Importance.
1t had been proposed to discontinue
the school medical inspections here
for the duration of the war, owing to
the shortage of physicians.

front to rectify the new positions.

visited was also set on fire. No fur

evening, and he had barely escaped
capture.
Word came that the General Stat
must be moved further back. The
field trains were set in motion, and
we Travelled without any kind of con-
fusion across a beautiful range of
wooded hills. We stopped more than
once to see smoke, and twin yellow
and white bursts of the Austrian
shrapnel being almost lost in the
white or black smoke of the German
artillery We travelled very slowly
and for a good part of the day; Of
ficers and men had feeling of great
vexation at having to retire before
troops which they felt themselves ca
pable of beating with any equal con-
lditionss.
In the afternoon we drew up in
large village full of field trains. Re-
ports came in from all quarters:
nearly all the regiments had suffered
great losses. The trenches had been
left only when the enemys artillery
had made them untenable. In some
parts the systematic ploughing up of
whole given areas had gone so far
behind our lines that even approach

possible.
The game was lost even on this
ground, and immediate measures had
teen taken for counter attacks the
following day. Meanwhile the .owr
in which we were was under an inter
mittent met violent bombardment Of
aeroplanes and all the hospitals were
being removed to the rear.
The railway station was crowded
with the wounded, lying close To-

The officers lay here like the rest,

number of wounded officers is not
