Brown-Howard Backers Are Proud of Fighting
Spirit of Longwell's Eleven

Coach j. B. Longwell held secret prac-
tice at Howard college yesterday after
noon in preparation for the game at Rick
wood Saturday with Birmingham college.
Coach Longwell will give his squad only
a very light scrimmage this afternoon
and on tomorrow will apply the finish
ing touches.
Backers of Howard are placing much
confidence in the ability of Coach Long
well to send his team upon the field

boys have showed unprecedented fight
this year and many followers of the Bap-
fists believe that the Howard eleven will
give Birmingham all she can stand in
the line of fight in the struggle.
Odds are slightly in favor of the Meth
odists, but Howard followers are conf
dent of success. The trick plays and for
ward passes is said to be the chief plan
of attack of the Baptist coach.
Much enthusiasm is being shown by
the student body. Mass meeting are
being held on the campus regularly and
some great stunts are being planned.
The Howard boys will give excellent sup
port to their team, practically turning
out in full for the game.
Cheer leaders have been exceedingly
busy whipping the mass of students into
good form.
The city commissioners have been in
vited to attend the game. A special box
will be erected for the city fathers.
Every indication at the present points
to a large crowd at the game. 1t is
the desire of the two colleges to have
at least 5000 people at the game. Admis-
sion will be only so cents. The game
starts at 2:3O o'clock

of the line-up of the Navy eleven in

Gilman, right guard; Clark, right
tackle; Jackson, right end; Whelchel.

Ingram, right halfback; and Perry,
fullback.
The playing of Perry at fullbacIe
because of his phenomenal punting
ability and the winning of the quarter
job by Whelchel puts a back field in
composed of four men who entered
the academy in June.
The continued secrecy and the an
nouncement that there is to be no
open practice before the squad leaves
for New York, follows persistent re-
rort that the Navy coaches feel that
their signals and plays were known
by some of the teams which have
played at Annapolis this season

college has completed his hard work for
the present week and will apply the fin
fishing touches the remainder of the week
in preparation for the Howard-Birming-
yam game at Redwood field Saturday.
Coach Brown has spent much time for
the past two weeks in giving his Pan
theirs secret plays. He has scrimmaged
the scrubs every afternoon this week,
and is well satisfied with the condition
of the players. He has drilled fight
into their bones and has daily cautioned
the team about overconfidence. There
will be secret practices the remainder of
the week.

eral years. The recent meetings have
been well attended by some of the
alumni who instilled considerable pep"
into the team and student body. Each
member of the team is given the chance
to talk at each meeting and all show
a seriousness of spirit in their speeches.
If fighting spirit adds laurels to a
crown, Birmingham college will be on

The final mass meeting will be held in

GRIDIRON ECHOES
BY FRED BODEkER

Despite the fact that no game
nessee will be played on Satur5
day, as proposed by several sport
ing writer's on southern dailies,
there is an unusual amount of
squabbling over the probable win
ner of the championship. Although
only one more game remains on
the schedule of all-southern col
leges, the fight for the champion
ship has been narrowed to two
teams, namely, Tech and Tonnes
see.
Tech was not defeated last year
but lost the southern champion
ship to Vanderbilt through
newspaper" verdict which are
generally accepted. This year a
similar occurrence threatens to
dampen Tech athletics. Tennessee
by their victory over Vandy and
Sewanee, has a strong claim for
the title, but at the same time
Tech, by victories over Georgia,
Alabama and several others, has
one stronger.
Vandys chance for the title is
very slim. The Commodores, by
reason of their defeat from Ten
nessee are practically eliminated
unless both Tech and Tennessee
should meet defeat in their Tur-
key Day battle, while the McGu-
gin clan is rolling up a larger
score on Sewanee than Tennessee
did.
Should Tech defeat the Auburn
Plainsmen Thanksgiving the title
should be theirs. They have
battled through a long and siren
nous schedule as compared with
one much easier. that of Tennes-
see. A glance over the schedules

OLIPHANT WILL DO
ARMY'S KICKING

West Point, November 22.-After two
hours of snappy work by the Army
eleven today in a scrimmage with the
scrubs, position drills, forward pass
ing, and signal practice, it was vir-
tually settled that Oliphant will do the
kicking in the game against the Navy
Saturday
ELEPHANTS work today pleased the
coaches immensely. His form during
the week has been at top notch and
today in placement goal kicking he
made six goals from various angles
and yard marks. Vidal also scored sew
eral field goals.
The coaches consider that the i'm
provement in the cadets work this
week has been very marked.
Although the soldiers have been con-
siderabIy handicapped by varsity in
juries during the last fortnight the re-
turn yesterday of Butler to the line
helped to raise the spirits of the play
ers and the team faces it's final drills
with a confident air.

The same rules that govern lawn

is probable that the net will be slight

employ all the cuts known to the out

of the two institutions reveals,
perhaps, why Tennessee is still in
the running.
Tech leads the south in points
scored and their total doubles
that of Tennessee. More points
have also been scored against
Tennessee. Techs battles with
Mercer, Cumberland, Davidson,
North Carolina, Washington and
Lee Tulane, Alabama and Geor-
gia were all hard ones with the
exception of the first duo. Ten
nessee has had but two games
with teams of championship cal
ibre. Tusculum, Maryville, Glenn
son, South Carolina, Florida, Chat
tanooga, Vanderbilt and Sewanee
are the teams Tennessee has met
and conquered. Auburn compared
with Kentucky State adds a lit
tie more strength to the argu-
ment of the yellow Jackets.
Tennessee defeated Clemson IA to 0.
Georgia defeated Clemson &c to 0 and

There are too many southern elevens
getting by" with light schedules at
the present. Why doesn't Vandy and
Tennessee book strong teams and help
shoulder the burden of deciding the
championship. in turn with Alabama.
Auburn, Sewanee, Tech and Georgia?
Vandy has but four games which re-
quires any playing ability to secure
victory, while Tennessee meets but two
real teams. Vandy meets Virginia,
Tennessee Auburn and Sewanee. That
parts all right, but why don't the
Commodores take on either Georgia
or Tech? Tennessee should add at least
two more strong teams to their sched-
ule of Yandy and Sewanee. But so
seldom docs the university obtain a
place in the limelight, they are hardly
accustomed to meeting the better
teams from year to year.
There promises to be mighty argu-
ment and it will most probably fall to
the press to settle. Should Auburn
defeat Tech and Kentucky State win
over Vanderbilt, then the situation
would certainly be in a bad muddle.
Auburn has a good team and will
give the Yellow Jackets their strong
est battle of the year. Comparative
scores say Tech should win by IS
pionts, but Heisman will be happy in
his collection of pigskin artists can
pound out a win by a point mar
gin.
Kentucky State is improving with
each game and although Tennessee
will probably win by neat margin,
it won't be a walk-away for the out
fit from Knoxville.
