at least make q respectable showing.
 However club owners are not totally to blame fcr past mistakes. Money may not have been so plentiful for the use of Mobile managers. but at the same time knowing how to spend money for ball players is just as es- sential as having the money. President A. l.. Staples. newly elected head of the club, is also enthusiastic over prospects, due to improved business conditions in Mobile and with his CO., operation Manager Flaherty should be able to deliver team that Mobile fans might be proud of.
 The new Gull leader is depending on Bob Hasbrook, secured from the Chi cago Americans, to fill the first base position to the satisfaction of al con- cerned. Hasbrook can play any of the infield positions, stated Manager Fla herty, but will be used exclusively at first base. From all the reports have had of Hasbrook," said Flaherty, The should make us a good man. He is Q brilliant fielder rated a fast man on the bases and hits fairly we'll He should help us a whole lot. ] also ex- pect much from Tutweiler, who was one of the good batters of the Inter- national last year and is a man of ex- perience in infield work"
 PLANS FOR SPRING EXHIBITION
 In order that he may get a line on the strength of his team Flaherty. with Secretary Colsson is now making ar engagements for some exhibition games during the spring training season Last spring a most serious mistake was made when the 1917 Gulls opened the season without having participated in, regular game against stronger oppo- sition than Spring Hill college They did not meet any teams of their own ability or better, and consequently no weak spots loomed up
 But when the season opened, great gaps were apparent at number of po- sitions Repairing these. at the ex- pense of losing game after game put the team into last place, where it re- mained No such mistake will be made by the new manager, not if he can help it.
 He has opened negotiations with the Cleveland Americans and the Cin- cinnati Nationals The Indians will train at New Orleans. It is hoped to schedule games with them here and also at Hattiesburg. where a canton ment is located. Cincinnati will train at Montgomery and Manager Flaherty has written Christy Mathewson ask ing for games at Montgomery and Mo- bile with the Cincinnati Reds. These contests will give Manager Flaherty line on his men before the season opens, and will show him his weak spots in time to fill the gaps before the regular season gets under way.

Atlanta Athletic Club to Be Local Five's Opponent
 Next Saturday
ALABAMA TO PLAY
 HERE WEDNESDAY
Coach Spencer Working Men Hard for Two Most Important Tilts of Season-C1ub Five Is After
 Championship of South

The seasons basketball classic will be staged at the Birmingham Athletic club Saturday night when the cham club comes to Birmingham to meet the city's best quintet. The game. in the past five years, has proved to be q sensation, and no doubt, the same per formance will be repeated.
 Coach Ed Spencer will drive his men overtime for the big tilt The club meets the University of Alabama quin tet, an aggregation composed entirely of Birmingham boys. Wednesday night The game will put the local five on the edge, and little practice will follow before the supreme clash.
 The club five Is stronger this year than before in the past four seasons, Coach Spencer has an abundance of veteran and inexperienced material and the machine thus far, has displayed all the earmarks of a championship az gregation.
 THE CLUES STARS
 Capt. link Gillian and Tommie Me Gowan are playing better brand of ball than ever before. Baker at center and Laughinghouse and Strange at guards are displaying better form each day. And besides these stars he has some substitutes who rank but slight ly lower.
 The Atlanta quintet suffered their first defeat in three years last Satur- day from the University of Georgia by g to count. The following is wards Strupper, Bryan Dodge, Bass and Graves; centers, Cooke, Frazer and Hamlet; guards Dunwoody, Hart ney Oliver and Brannen.
 Everett Strupper. the sensational halfback of the Georgia Tech Golden Tornado" Is playing one of the for wards for Coach Joe Bean. He has starred thus far and his addition to the lineup will undoubtedly attract nu merous followers of the gridiron game to see the youth perform on the court.
 Atlanta always comes to Birmingham with real blood thirsty feeling, and the game Is fierce battle from the start. A capacity attendance always attends the game.
 CLUB AFTER TITLE
 The club is out after the champion ship of the south this year, and by defeating the Atlanta five, twill remove one of the chief obstacles. In order to ring up victory, the club must play at stellar form, and return to the Georgians all the roughness they of fer.
 But in the scramble of the Atlanta game the clash Wednesday must not be overlooked. The Crimson lads might slip up here and surprise everybody by stealing back to Tuscaloosa with victory tucked under their shirt. The club boys, however, are not possess ing spirit of over-confidence, and will enter both contests realizing that they will have a tough battle.
 Prof. T. c. Young will be secured to referee each game. The club will play a return game at the University and Atlanta. The usual dance will fol- low each game. Tickets can be re. served now at the club for either con- test.
