GEORG|A PREPARED FOR CLASH AGAINST
 KELLY'S WARRIORS
Coach Cunningham to Have Team in Excellent COndi- tiOn to Face Crimson
 on Thursday

Athens, Ga, November 25.-(SpeciaD The game on Thanksgiving Day be- tween the Georgia and Alabama foot ball teams promises to be a hectic affair and the probable outcome is a matter of much speculation. The Geor- gia bunch has been putting in some hard licks during the past week get ting in shape for the fray, for they realize that they have a hard job be- fore them.
 Alabama this year has shown re- ' markable strength and the best that the great Tech machine could do against her was to win by 13-0 score. Tech beat Georgia by a 21-0 score, and. therefore, according to the dope, Ala banna is just one touchdown stronger than the Georgia aggregation This shows what the Red and Black team has to go up against, and they will not journey to Birmingham in any overconfdent spirit. They fully real ize that any team that can hold the Yellow Jackets scoreless for three quarters and then only succumb in the last quarter, when overcome by superior weight, Is a formidable team and one much to be feared
 With the. one exception of the Tu- lane game, the Alabama line has been practically impregnable this season. and 1t will take superhuman powers to drill hole through it. There has been no 1et-up in the practices dur Ing the past week at Athens and it has been steady grind for the team every afternoon Sruelling practices and scrappy scrim- images have frmed the programme for the squad.
 on Saturday afternoon the hardest scrlmmage of the year was played when the Red and Black varsity met the scrubs in full game. The game was hotly contested and large num- gle.
 The Red and Black squad will have their full lineup on the field when they meet Coach Kelly's charges in Birmingham. The team emerged iron, the game with Tech with no material injuries. and their lineup against Alabama ought to be the strongest of the year. One important change will most probably be made in the line-up of the squad. Buck Neville, the big tullback. will be shifted to the guard position on the line and Mack Moore Will take his place in the backfield. This move should strengthen the Geor- gta defense considerably
 The squad leaves Athens on Tues day night, and it is hoped that a good ly number of Georgia rooters can ac- company them. The loyal supporters of the team are counting on Georgia to do her fiercest fighting in this game. SC as to end the season with great victory. ss. ss ys.Ds
 The lineup of the Georgia team is as follows:
 Tate. left end; Wingate, left tackle, Thrash, left guard; Garmany, center. Neville. right guard; Mcconnell. right tackle; Dezzendorf right end: Don nelly, quarterback; Coleman, left half rack Reynolds, right halfback; Moore. fullback. -

The best team to represent Central High school this season will clash with the Bessemer High school at Redwood field on Thanksgiving morning for the championship of the Alabama Interschol- astic conference. All teams in the con ference have been defeated with the ex- ception of Bessemer and Central and with the state championship at stake a merry tilt is expected.
 Coach Pritchard at Central is giving his huskies a hard workout each day with the hope that the defeat of last year from the Bessemer aggregation be revenged. All of his injured stars are back in shape now, and with plenty of substitutes to bolster the regular eleven, Central followers have high hopes of victory.
 Central followers are placing much hope in the trick plays of their team. So far this season no team has been able to stop the rushes of the Pritchard machine equipped with plays in which the ball is passed frequently. In Dorsky at end Coach Pritchard has a star who is one of the best in the state at snatchng a pass from the air. In recent games Dorsky has proven the star of the team.
 The backfield will probably be made up of Jackson at fullback, Hahn and Dorsky at halfbacks, and Levvy at quar- ter. Although no official announcement has been made regarding the change of Dorsky to the backfield where he played In previous years, it is thought Coach Pritchard will make this shift. In event this change is made, Jones, Anderson or IaCroix will play the wings.
 The line with F. Hall at ceptnr ROx and J. Hall at guards and Captain Craig and Balsam at tacklss, will remain in- tact.
 Central knows Bessemer has a good team. and will go into the game deter mined to win. Practice is being held daily and with the eleven in the best con- dition since the opening of the season. the chances for a Central victory grow every day. great deal of enthusiasm is being manifested and a good crowd is expected to witness the battle.
 Central's team will average about 145 pounds. The game will be called at 10 clock. Bill Streit will referee. Other arrangements will be announced later

Alabama is also outclassed in ex- perience. Georgia has two four year men on the squad, one three year man, three men who have served two years and five who are playing their first year Alabama has one four year man, no three year men, four two year men and six one year men. Alabama is also smaller than Georgia, man to man.
 Both teams have made about the same record thus far this season. Georgia has been defeated three times, while the Crimson colors have been lowered twice. Navy, Auburn and Tech were the win ners over the Cunningham eleven, while Tech and Tulane have been the only elevens able to triumph over the Grim son.

 Special to Run
 Alabama students are coming up to the game in full force. A special train will be run and over 800 are expected to make the trip.
 Gov. Charles Henderson of Alabama has accepted the invitation to attend the game, while Gov. Nat Harris of Georgia will probably be a spectator. Word is being awaited from the chief executive of Georgia at the present. It is thought, however, that he will attend. The alumni of the two colleges are working together in an effort to make the game big success. Borden Burr. chairman of the Alabama alumni. is at the head of the temporary organization. The game promises to be one of ex- ceptional7 interest. Open play, the kind of ball that appeals to the average fan, is used by both elevens. With the big battle only four days off. Georgia stands a slight favorite, but remember this, Ala be ma will be there and be there strong. The Crimson will attempt to stage | "come back" Watch them and see, We predict they will

Bessemer Eleven Practices Hard for Central CashCoach Pritchard May Make Shift in neup-Title of
 A. | A. A. At Stake

Bessemer High school football team is progressing slowly for the game Thanks giving with Central High Of Birmins- ham When the season opened Bessemer had practically new team. nine of the veterans that played Central so well last year being lost by graduation
 Woods, a 175-pound demon was the first man lost, he having to undergo an oper- alton. and never having sufficiently re covered to play, while in the first scrim- mage of the season O'Rourl1e broke his arm. This man was counted upon to make whirlwind and great running mate for the two Scotts perhaps outshining them, the coaches pronouucing him the most likely looking football candidate that had been on thesBessemer field for years
 Smith came next. He was the man who invented picking holes in a line" none of the squad surpassing him in this work He suffered a broken shoulder in tackle practice. The next man lost to the squad was Payne, 192-pound country boy, all nerve and brawn, he having left the school.
 1S0 pounds, who was bidding fair to hold down tackle job. and the best punt ing prospect since Hughes.
 With these losses, however. the rest of the squad knew that it was up to them to uphold the standards of Bessemer High as well as the teams of the past and went to work with a determination that was very pleasing to the supporters If the school. How well they have done is shown by the record the team has made.
 The average weight of the entire squad is only 150 pounds, some 15 pounds lighter than last years team, and while the re- suits have not been as satisfactory as Bessemer might wish, some excellent ma- terial is being developed for future years.
 The game Thanksgiving with Central High school of Birmingham is the most important game of the season with the local boys and this contest will eliminate one of the teams from the championship race of the Alabama Interscholastic Ath- letic conference

TURKEY DA Y BATTLE PROMISES TO BE VERY ISCRAPPY STRUGGLE
Georgia Is Slight Favorte Over Automatically Working Men Hard for Game Crimson Will Attempt Come back
 Following Defeat From Tulane-Last Game of Season
HOW THE TWO TEAMS COMPARE

By FRED BoDEKER
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-11-26

The 1916 gridirons season will be closed in Birmingham, as well as throughout the country, on Thanksgiving day when the Universities of Alabama and Georgia
 meet at Redwood Field in their seventh | annual struggle. The rival elevens are
 in excellent condition for the battle and one of the best games staged in Birming- ham this season can be expected when the elevens from the rival states clash. Although Alabama stock has been somewhat depreciated following the se- were trouncing the strong Tulane eleven
 gave the Crimson outfit last Saturday,
 followers of the state university believe
 Coach Thomas Kelly will be able to whip his boys into shape for the game which will either better or worse their present standing in the S. I. A. A, which Is nothing to be proud of.
 The weakness manifested by the Crim- son outfit in New Orleans does not nec- essarily mean that Georgia will be re- turned the victor. It is believed that the defeat raised the Crimson chances of victory rather than lessening them by many. The fact that several members of the team have been deprived of their letters unless they make a most credit able showing in the Thanksgiving game tends to indicate that several athletes
 will put up fight as seldom witnessed before on the southern gridiron. Showing Disappointing The showing of Alabama last Saturday, it is true, was very disappointing and the players alone are responsible. Coach
 Kelly has now however, forgot the in-
 cident and is driving his men at an un- precedented gait to have them in the
 best condition possible for the turkey day game. Latest reports from the Crimson campus were to the effect that Kelly was working his men we'll after dark and that the Crimson would pre- sent one of their strongest lines-ups of the season.
 Alabama has a powerful team as shown by the Sewanee and Tech games. The great offensive ability of the Crimson was shown in the Sewanee game, while the defensive showing was illustrated i'll the battle against the Tech Yellow Jackets.
 Followers of the Crimson believe Kelly will be able to whip his team back into shape for the battle. The Crimson coach l is working as hard as he did for the l Sewanee game and that's going some. Alabama Outweighed Alabama will go into the battle out- weighed. The heaviest man on the Ala bama line tips the beam at 1S9, being Whittlesey, the big tackle, while Thrash, 2O5 pounds, is the heaviest man on the
 Georgia line.
