SALE IF TICKETS
 ID START TODAY

The seat sale for the Vanderbilt Auburn game at Redwood Field on Saturday aft ernoon will start this morning at 10 demand for tickets to the alumni of the two institutions, who are cooperating on making the game a big financial success, was so great that they decided upon this action yesterday.
 Indications are that a record crowd will attend the game. The largest crowd to attend a football game in Birmingham was hung up at the Alabama-Sewanee game here on November 1, but officials in charge of the Auburn-V -Vandy game are confident that the mark of 7500 will easily be surpassed.
 The erection of bleachers where the automobile space usually is are being rushed and are now near completion. The new seats will accommodate over 1900 people. The automobile space will be abolished only to small extent. The addition of the new bleachers makes the seating capacity of Redwood near the 5000 mark. Officials hope to fill every seat.
 Each state will be represented at the game by their governors. Governor Hen derson and his staff will come up from Montgomery to witness the struggle, while Gov. Tom Rye of Tennessee will accompany the Vanderbilt team to Bir- mingham. Both teams will stop at the Tutwiler hotel
 According to the weather man, indica- tions at the present are in favor of ex- cellent weather for the game. Rain has not marred single game in Birmingham this season, and it is the desire that the two remaining struggles will be played in perfect weather conditions.

RELIEVE HEADACHES
 WITHOUT DOSING
By Applying Sloan's Liniment to Forehead You Can Stop
 the Severe Pains

Many headaches are of neuralgia origin The symptoms of such head aches are intense and lingering pains in the brow, temples or back of the head.
 There is one certain relief that has been known and recommended for years back, Sloan's Liniment. One ap- plication and the dull pain is practi- cally gone. It is easily applied with out rubbing. Rubbing is unnecessary, as Sloans Liniment quickly penetrates to the seat of trouble.
 Aching m Il cl e s, rheumatism, bruises, lumbago, chilblains, sprains and stiff neck can also be most effec- lively treated witk Sloan's Eminent. Cleaner than mussy plasters or oint- ments; it does not stain the skin or clog the pores.

be offset by the prospects for unseasonably
low temperatures in parts of the western
belt, and the market seemed to be hesItating

in such an aggressive manner, and the re-
dictionary sentiment which has followed the
advance of ;.bout SS.75 per bale from the

CAMPAIGN IN CONGRESS
AFTER HOLIDAYS PLANNED
"Dry" Advocates to Push Fight for
Constitutional Amendment
for Prohibition.

The prohibitionists plan an active
campaign in Congress Immediately aft
er the Christmas holidays to obtain ac-
tion on the resolutions proposing a
constitutional amendment for nation
wide prohibition. The Sheppard resolu-
tion for this purpose was favorably re-
ported to the Senate yesterday by the
judiciary committee. and similar
resolution already had been reported to
the House.
The resolution was today placed on
the Senates calendar. Senator Chiffon
presented the favorable report of the
Judiciary committee on the revised amend
mnt.
1t requires a two-thirds majority of
both houses to adopt such a resolution.
and even the most ardent supporters of
the proposed constitutional amendment
do not expect victory under these
conditions. However they do expect an
increased majority in the House over
that given when the last vote was
taken on similar measure, and ulti-
mate victory in the next Congress.
In the House it is planned to bring in
a special rule for the consideration of
the resolution. In the Senate, however.
the resolution must take Its chances
with other legislation. Senator Sheppard
will seek action on the resolution at
the earliest opportunity.
A bill to bar liquor advertising from
the mails in prohibition states was IA
vorably reported yesterday from the
Senate post office committee.
Representative Kttchin, majority
leader of the House. expressed the
opinion that the District prohibition
bill, which is to be voted on in the
Senate January 9, would pass the
House at the present session. He add
ed. however. that he did not think that
any national prohibition measure could
obtain the necessary two-thirds vote
in the House at this time.
