RIVAL HIGH TEAMS BATTLE FOR TITLE;
 CENTRAL FAV0R|TE
Coach Thomas Speedy Ag- gregation Is Expected to Slaughter Bessemer
 in Annual Strife

Central High school and Bessemer High school clash this morning at 10:30 o'clock at Redwood Field in the final prep game of the season. The cham pionship of the Alabama Interscholastic Athletic conference is practically at
 stake. as Central, in order to have a clear claim to the title, must wallop their ancient foes.
 Bessemer is slated for a good beat
 ing. Central is stronger this year than
 in past campaigns, and Coach Thomas
 well drilled men are expected to romp
 to an easy win. Bessemer suffered heav-
 fly by the loss of veterans, and these
 holes have not been plugged sufficient ly to prevent swamping defeat from
 a team of the calibre Central possesses. The teams will line up for the strug .
 gle with terms about even as far as
 weight is concerned. Central, however, will have the advantage in speed and experience.
 CentraPs shift formation will prob- ably work the Bessemer boys over time. The shift, which is sort of an open formation, has not been checked this season.
 Forward passing is also expected to play a prominent part in the fracas. Bessemer will undoubtedly rely on the open play to great extent, although Centrals line will probably be given severe test.
 Admission to the game will be 50 cents. Last year, big free-for-all fight featured the contest between the halves. I A similar occurrence will be prevented today by the presence of an unusually l large number of policemen at the park.

behind His tackles were deadly, and man will have to be pretty fast to out run him in an open field
 Then, there is Captain Cary Robinson, the quarterback, who gave up an all southern berth to run the Tiger ma chine. He is a1os a man who will give Georgia Techs pass formations trouble. It was Cary who intercepted one of Ohios passes and save probable touch down.
 Last, and probably greatest. is Du- cote Some say Ducote is the star around whom all the team has been built This may be true, but, at any rate, he is a terrible man on the de- fensive. and the offensive, for that mat ter Atlanta fans saw his wonderful work against Davidson, and how he saved the Plainsmen from a worse de- feat numbers of times by his wonder defensive game. These are the men on whom Coach Donahue Is relying to stop Techs hackfield if they ever get around that line.
 BONNER RELIABLE
 However, mention must be made of |that line. Pete Bonner has played a wonderful game all season for the Plainsfnen, and he has one of his great est days last Saturday. He is a hard man to block and always gives his op- posing tackle a lot of trouble. Tn Size more. Warrer and Thomas, Coach Dona- hue has the makings of some all-south- ern material. They have plenty of fight and endurance.
 Caton has filled the breach left at center by the injury of Rodgers early in the season, and if kept at center next year will be bound to shine Maybe Auburn will get little chance to put her offensive play into action, but if she does, there may be quite few surprises for Atlanta fans. As has been said before, the Tiger coach has been getting set for Tech all season and he has some very nice plays to display for the approval or disapproval of the Col den Tornado, as the case may be. Only straight football was dealt out for their benefit last Saturday, so there will be numbers of plays in the brains of the Tigers that Tech has never seen.

 TEAM IN FINE TRIM
 R. c. Cubbon, manager, arrived here yesterday. He states the soldiers are in fine trim and ready to give scrappy exhibition The soldiers will go into the fray with the distinction of not hay ing taken time out in a game played. Whether the Alabama tacklers will prove vicious enough to force the breaking of this rule is matter of much specula- tion.
 The following is the roster of the out fit and their positions:
 Bond and Phillips, center.
 Brown, Fulton and Meaders, guards.
 Thrash, Clarkson and Tomacello, tackles.
 White, Robinson and Vedernack, ends.
 Woodruff and Newell, quarterbacks.

 The game is scheduled to start at 2::S0 o'clock. Bill Streit will referee.
 The Crimson team will arrive in Bir- mingham this morning. Both teams will stop at the Tutwiler hotel, and will leave Birmingham at midnight.

 AUBURN IS STEADY
 All the nervousness that was so evil dent in the first few plays of the Plainsmen last Saturday seems to have vanished In all probability the Auburn eleven will not be troubled Win thls next Thursday as they were last Satur- day. and if this is go, should give livelier exhibition of football than that against Ohio, if that is possible
 Going up against two championship teams in five days is some task, but It has had it's advantage in one way 10 the Plainsmen, and that is that they can not fear Tech quite so bad as they would have had they not played ono. In other words, this green team has gained some confidence in their playing ability. It has set Tech on her mettie, but that is what Auburn wants.
 The largest mass meeting of the year was held tonight. College spirit was rampant, and every student, resident ana even professors were there to cheer on fbat valiant bunch of men, who have given their all that Auburn might stage one of the most wonderful comebacks that has ever been witnessed in the south Talks were made by Coaches Donahue and Tichenor.

One of the saddest things of the whole meeting was the talk of Captain Robinson, who IS play ing his fourth year on an Auburn team. However.

Auburn, November 2S.-(Speeial. )AThe Auburn team had their last practice and everything is now set for the south's most important football engagement of the current season at Atlanta Thursday. In Tact, the game has assumed national importance, owing to the fact that the showing Georgia Tech makes against Auburn may have good deal to do with the final summing up of the qualities of Pittsburg and Tech, both national championship contenders
 By giving Ohio such a shake-up In Montgomery last Saturday, Auburn looms forth as one of the south's great est teams, and a team that will give Georgia Tech all she is looking for. Ohio was considered strong contend CT for championship honors, but the way Auburn held them has lowered them in the estimate of critics.
 Auburn is hoping to hold the fast Georgia Tech aggregation to a closs score also. Some might say that the Plainsmen played themselves out against Ohio, playing much above their usual form, and will, for this reason, not be able to put up as fast a game as they did against the Buckeyes. This does not appear to be true to one who has watched these same Tigers work during the last two days, and all Au- burn men believe that this same Tiger machine will do Just as well on Turkey day against the Golden Tornado.
 BACKFIELD STRONG

REGULARS

Everybody loves to see the real college spirit. Probably few schools or colleges in the world can boast of the spirit which predominates at Au- burn. Morgan Blake, sporting edi- tor of the Atlanta Journal, had the following to say recently:
 ssYou may break, you may shatter the team if you will, but the faith of the students will cling around it still
 'Last year the writer sat at Grant field and saw the Tech Juggernaut run roughshod over the Auburn Iii gers, handing them the worst defeat probably in their history. And yet over in one section of the stands sat bunch of Tiger rooters, who kept up continual din that never hushed despite the piling up of the score against them.
 "A good many of these boys had ridden freight cars into Atlanta in or der to bet their carfare on a practi- cally eorlorn hope.
 Ut is mighty easy to be enthusias- tic over a winning team, and in those days of Auburn's supremacy in the south, 1t required little effort on the part of the students to open their lungs. But in the lean years it comes hard. And the Auburn stu dents are just as rampant, just as noisy, just as encouraging to their tea,n today as they were then.
 .sWhen the team got back from At- ,anta the other day after losing to Davidscr, tie college boys met them at the train with the past forgotten and inspiring words for the future.

Ts entire proceeds of the game, minus expenses for the two teams and the cost of staging the game, will go to the "camp fund" of the soldiers. The soldiers are desirous of receiving neat sum for their exhibition-enough to put new athletic equipment in effect at their camp immediately.
 Although in the soldier aggregation some of the south's greatest stars in previous seasons will be seen in action, the Crimson is considered to have a good chance to tally a victory. The sol diers, coached by Capt. Alex Cunning ham, formerly coach of Georgia, are re- ported to have one of the strongest sol- dier organizations in the south. The fact that they have not suffered oe- feat in five games with formidable ag- gregations tends to indicate most az gressive crew.
 USE OPEN FORMATION
 Alabama will base their claim for vic- tory on the open formation. Ana one of the main obstacles of 8 sweeping win for the soldiers Is Kelly's "hole card Whether the soldiers will be able to stop the baffling passes and wide end runs of the Crimson men remains to be seen.

Auburn's clash with Georgia Tech here for titular honors, the annual meeting between Vanderbilt and the University of the South at Nashville, and Washing
 ton and Lees intersectional battle, with
 Washington and Jefferson at Richmond, generally are considered to be among
 the chief attractions of the holiday play,
 which is marked this year by the ab-
 sence of Virginia, North Carolina, Geor-
 gia and Tennessee from the Thanksgv-
 ing card.
 Showing a development of power in
 the last fortnight that resulted in a
 decisive triumph over their ancient foe,
 Vanderbilt, the Plainsmen on the eve
 of their clash here furnished one of
 the major surprises of the season in
 holding the powerful Ohio State combi-
 nation, western conference champions, to
 a scoreless tie. Football critics point to these two displays of the force of the Auburn machine as bespeaking In a large measure the test of strength the Georgians will be put to here tomor-
 row if they are to turn their twentieth meeting with the Alabamans into vic- tory, and close their third consecutive season without defeat.
