SHOOTERS AWARD GRAND AMERICAN
 ID CHICAGO CLUB
No Subsidiary Tourneys to Be Held in 191S-Devel- opment Committee
 is Named

New York, November 9-At the first session of the Interstate Trap Shooting associations annual meeting here today, the grand American handicap tournament was awarded to the South Shore Country club, Chicago, where this big event was held last August. After considerable discussion it was deemed advisable not to hold the Pacific coast, western south ern or eastern subsidiary tournaments this year. Instead a committee On de- velopment was appointed by President Keilar for the purpose of interesting members of sporting and country clubs throughout the country in trap shooting. At each of the 46 state chapionship shoots a handicap event will be added and the amateur and professional championships of each state will be decided.
 In compliance with a request from the government the names of several anna teur and professional trap shooters were forwarded, all of whom will serve as in structors at the traps which have been placed at several aviation schools ana cantonments throughout the United States. For the protection of the anna teur volunteer instructors the meeting decided that none of them would impair his amateur status by accepting positions of this kind under government control.
 It is announced that S6 traps are in op- eration at the various American camps now, and several more in France. Al ready 3,000,0O0 clay targets have been sup piled for the home and foreign traps and 100000 have been ordered to be sent to American and foreign camps weekly.

Atlanta, November 9.--Among the more important football games sched- uled in the south tomorrow, the out standing contests appear to be the meeting between Alabama and Van derbilt at Birmingham and the Auburn Davidson clash in Atlanta. Georgia Tech plays it's only game of the season away from home, with Tulane, in New Orleans, and the University of Missis- sippi faces the University of the South at Sewanee.
 Few football critics in the south this week would hazard a guess as to the outcome of the match between the Crimson and the Commodores. Wander bilt has been overwhelmingly defeated twice this season, while only three points have been tallied against her unbeaten opponents tomorrow. Coach McGugin, it is said, has again made some shifts in the Commodore line- up with indications that more form- idable offensive game will be offered against Alabama than the Nashville collegians presented in the contest with Tech here. Sewanee played a to 3 tie last week.
 The meeting here between Auburn and Davidson will be the second in the history of the two institutions The Tar Heels defeated the Plainsmen in their initial game in 1906 by one touch- down. Auburn's creditab1e showing against practically all of it's opponents, coupled with the victory over Florida last Saturday by nearly twice the score by which the Gators were defeated last year by Donahue's players, gives the Plainsmen an advantage. Davidson, however, has one of the strongest schedules of any southern eleven, hav- ing played Tech and the Navy and scored on both.
 Sewanee is not expected to have much trouble with the University of Mississippi. The Oxford players have not won a game this season while the Purple apparently have gained strenptb with the progress of their season.
 Tulane showed exceptional form in its early season contests and it's goal had not been crossed before Texas A M- routed the Olive and Blue. s5 to .. Indications are that Coach Shaueh-

est runs of the game, his work being the feature of Centrars victory. He made gains of 50 and 60 yards, respectively both through an open field for touch down.
 It is not probable that Central would have run the score as high as they did had it not been for the fact that the state high school championship rested on the result. Fayette High school beat Ems ley this season by a score of 66 to G., and as Central does not play Fayette this season they had to beat Ensley by a larger score than Fayette, or probably lose the championship by comparative scores. Central now has an open field to the title should they go the rest of the season without being defeated
 For Ensley Capt. Chick Mays was the star and this plucky little halfback fought to the last minute. He ran Cen tral's punts back well, seldom failing to gain Drummond's bunting was good, averaging about 40 yards, while Cannon, Ensleys left end, played good defen- sive game. seldom missing tackle. Jones on left end for Central played one of the greatest defensive games seen here this year. 'Fritzy'' was in every play, and the Ensley boys will never forget him, as every tackle he made de- 'layed the game as some unfortunate man called for time or water. Well, the
 
 battle have about cleared and all Ems ley can do not is to look forward to next year to get the long -sought-for revenge.
 The lineup follows:
 Ensley-Cook, right end; Johnston, right tackle: Drummond, right guard: Smith, son, center; English, left guard: Kyle, left tackle; Cannon, left end Hassler, auarterback.; Mays (captain), halfback; Rosenfelt, halfback: Walker fullback

 Notwithstanding the fact that the Crimson will be materially weakened in case Tram Sessions. the star cen ter, and Lenior. the peppery quarter back, are ruled ineligible, a heated strife should be the outcome of the fourth meeting of these two institu- tions. The odds slightly favor the Crimson with their lineup intact, but weakened, the two teams will battle practically on even terms.
 yandy comes to Birmingham already eliminated from the running for the southern championship. Coach MeGugins men were dealt smothering defeat last Saturday by the powerful Georgia Tech aggregation. The Commodores now come to Birmingham determined to administer a knockout blow to the Crimson, who still remain as one of the few undefeated teams in the south.

BASKETBALL TITLES

 OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT
Candidates for Y. M. c. A. Squad Making Warm Bat tie for Title of the
 Class League

There were two unusually fast games of basketball played in the Young Mems Christian Association league and resulted in victories for the Tornadoes and Submarines over the Aviators and Navy.
 The games were spectacular to watch, especially was this true of the Submarines, under Captain Henly whose clever pass work had their op- ponents completely baffled from the start.
 The surprise of the evening was the improvement shown in the Aviators. These youngsters, reinforced by Wall ker and Harrel, put their team in the running. The Aviators are a light bunch, but they burn up the court With their speed.
 The first game was between the Tor nadoes and the Aviators, and went to the Tornadoes by the score of 28 to IT.. Homer Norton played in the first half and showed that he knew how the game should be played. Enslen and Chisolm were good at working the floor, while Sherrod and Twining took care of the forwards.
 Davis, Walker and Harrell starred for the losers. The second game be- tween the Submarines was featured by the splendid team work of the former. Henly, Stapleton and Bryan scored at will on their opponents, while the Navy could not successfully break through the Waldron- Rob bins combination at guard. Anderson played splendid game at guard. Score, 49 to 6.
 There is a treat on hand for next Wednesday evening. when the hefty Tornadoes will be hunting subs. If the dope does not miscarry the game will be a thriller. The Submarines will have to contend with some dread- naughts in Norton and Greenwood The Aviators will play the Navy.
 Lineup:
 Tomatoes: Norton 4, Chisolm 6, Ens- len 10. Sherrod, Twining A. Scoby A.
 Aviators: Davis 6. Hoskins 4, Walker 4. Eggleston 3. Young, Davies, Harrell
 Submarines: Henly IS. Stapleton H. Bryan F, Waldron s. Robbins, Cope land.
 Navy: Dodd 2, Crook 4, Anderson, Freeman, Knight, Fulton.

Nashville, November 9.-(Special) Old Joe Wolcott was right-"the bigger they are the harder they fall" Every foe upon whom the Commodores for merly preyed year in and year out now appear banded together to pick clean the honest of Vanderbilt settling old scores. Close on the heels of the first Tech victory over a Black and Gold eleven in % years the Crimson clan of Alabama, which has never yet crossed a Vandy goal line, looms up with bet ter than an even chance to add fur ther woe to the already overrunning cup of misery in Vanderbilt quarters. In fact, the McGuginites view the en- suing scrap with the Kelly eleven with such alarm that hopes for a victory have almost given way to a frantic eff fort to arrange an attack and defense which will bring about a tie verdict Although the Commodores have not en- tirely abandoned hope of holding their enemy at bay, grave anxiety exists over the outcome of the fourth game be- tween the two in Birmingham Saturday.
 The commodores are in much the
 
 their morale is excellent, but they are falling back. Out of the Tech game the Black and Gold eleven emerged with surprising cheerfulness. Their staggering defeat failed to shake their stamina, their lone asset in the present dismal campaign. Yet the reports of scouts which indicate a wide advantage in weight for the Crimson clan, bulge in experience in the presence of several veterans in the Kelly machine and a dangerous fullback in Stevenson Tn ad- dition to a margin in attack and de- fense has troubled the coaches to a great extent.
 Vigorous efforts during the week have been made to tutor the Commodores in a defense for the Iowa spread and the other freak formations which Alabama relies upon Yet by reason of their gin pupils are fearfully slow to learn. Still they came out of the Tech game confessing that they did not play wide enough to meet Techs jump shift. That admission has stimulated faith of the coaches in development of the raw material and dispelled much of the fear that the crude recruits would never, this year. master the requisite funda- mentals in which they were so woefully weak against the Golden Tornado.
 Continuing the record of never hav- ing used the same lineup in any two games this year, new backfield will face Alabama, Norman having replaced,

 Tn addition to grillng workouts to thwart the Iowa spread the Commo- dores have been put through exhaustive drills in an effort to erect forward pass attack, a weapon with which the McGuginites in the past steadily con quered their foe, only to have the Heis- man eleven employ that same system to complete the crushing oI Nandy q week ago. Considerable satisfaction has been expressed in the mSnner With which the Commodores have executed the new passes, the overhead attack being a complete revision of former air plays, made necessary by the assurance that hostile spies viewed the few op- posing efforts of Vandy against Tech.

They will practice at the Birmingham Country club. Those who made the trip were: Captain Adams, Lassiter, Davies, Mee nick, Holmes, McGill, Carman, Early, Moore, Conyers Richardson Wilhite, Sherman, Schwill, Hendrix, Norman.
 Accepting the weights sent out from Birmingham the Commodores will be outw eighed in the line more than six pounds to the man, the Crimson back field is heavier and faster than the vandy backs, and summed up only a scant hope for victory exists in the Me- Gug;n camp.
