SALVATION ARMY MAKES
BIG DRIVE NEXT WEEK

The Salvation Army is going to call
upon the people of America next
week for Home Service fund with
which to continue the great work in
America and to enlarge same. Dur
| ing the world war just ended there
were many agencies that did welfare
work for the soldiers and at various
times the agencies called upon the
American people to furnish the funds
for war work. Without any great
parade of their virtues, the Salvation
Army people went to work with very
little funds and, according to the re-
turning overseas soldiers, they did
more for the American boys in
France than any other agency-and
his with very limited means.
ASK any returning soldier what the
Salvation Army did in France and he
will be loud in his praise of their
great work. When the tired soldier
'ame from the trenches all caked with
mud and filth, and hungry, it was the
Salvation Army lassie who was wait
ng for him with delicious cookies,
toughnuts, etc, that put new life
,nto him. Ask Ray Rivers and other
'eturned soldier boys from overseas
bout the Salvation Army work for
he soldiers
This organization is asking the
american public for ,35O.OOO.OO
or the home service fund, in order
hat their great work for the down.
rodden in the cities may continue
ma increase in the great good they
ire doing. The Salvation Army slo-
gan is "a man may be down, but he
never out" They pick up the out
lasts, the ones whom society has
:ast under foot and they make new
zen and women of them.
The Salvation Army is actu-
lily accomplishing more real good for
he fallen and oppressed humanity
han any other agency on earth. This
broad statement, but we believe it
0 be true.
Chesterfield county's quota for the
Home Service fund has been fixed at
81, 500. Mr.. R. E. Hanna, of Cheraw,
las been appointed county director
for the drive and Mrs. J. r. Millar,l,
# Ruby, has been named as county
reasurer. The following are the
chairman for the various towns and
ne quota of those towns:
Chcraw, $500, Mrs. Hattie Mccoy
Chesterfield, $3.50, Mrs. l.. B. Riv-
rs, d. H. Douglass.
Ruby, 500, Mrs. J. R. Millard.
Mt. Crogahn, 500, Mrs. j. o. Tay-
lor.
Pageland, $50, Mrs. Ed. Catoe, l..
I. Parker and G.. M. Tucker.
Jefferson, $50, Mrs. Edd Miller
McBee, $3.50, Mrs. G.. l.. Evans and
Mr.. f. f. Kerr.
Patrick, $50, Mrs. Press Campbell.
Midderdorf, $50, Mrs. l.. o. john
son.
1t is hoped that every town will
louble or triple its quota. The
money is needed and every cent of it
will go through Salvation Army chan
rcls to aid in their great work of
fitting up the fallen and the weak of
humanity. Cash payments are de-
,ired, but subscriptions will be ac-
'epted and payments made during the
lcXt four months in installments.

RnuT CALLED DEE

Then Tortorich entered into the affair.
And now the Pete Herman Pal Moore
bout if off! This is the reason given by
men who are handling the pugilfstic des-
tiny of Moore:
Moore did not get the fight because
we would not agree to the terms that
Tortorich attempted to force upon us. =
'Tortorich insisted that before he would.
stage a fight between Moore and Her
nina, that Moore had to agree that in
case he (Moorel won the championship
in that contest, that he would give TO
Tortorich ten per cent G0) of his gross
earnings while he was title holder
'.All such terms were outrageous, and
for any promoter to attempt 10 foist them
upon fighter Us an outrage. SO we
turned down the proposition and by so
doing Moore lost his chance to battle with
Herman"
On the tail of the charges against Tor
torieh and Moore matter, comes another
of like nature. 1t is TO the effect that
Tortorich imposed similar conditions
upon Joe Lynch.
If the charges against Tortorich are
true, then il means that the New Orleans
promoter is killing the sport that is
making him wealthy. For managers and
fighters will not stand for any such tao
tics, and within a very short time they
are going to stay away from the city
where the Gear tries tactics such as
those charged against Tortortch. And II

ALABAMA IN GREAT
SHAPE FOR CONTEST
Tram" Sessions and Other
First String Men viii
Enter the Fray

Alabama Is in the best of condition
for her sixteenth annual battle with
Sewanee at Fleetwood this afternoon.
Friday by Coach Scott, all of the first
string men, including Sessions, at CEN
ter. will start the game. Coach Scott's
announcement that Sessions would APP
pear in the initial lineup occasioned
a surprise among Crimson supporters.
'.Trnm" received an injury several
weeks ago and only few days ago
did he resume active practice.
The encouraging words from the
Crimson mentor have increased the
stock Of the Thin Red Line" to a
considerable extent, During the first
of the week it looked a physical I'M
possibility that Sessions. Brown and
one or two other cripples would have
a chance of going in against the
Tigers, but these players showed won
derful Improvement in the past few
days.
Coach Scott is blessed this year in
having such a capable number OF sub
stitutes He has from three to five
good men for each position on the
team. In fact. 1T is hard to tell in a
few instances who is the best man for
the position.
Some of the substitutes who will
more than likely see service against
the purple hued tempest are EN-
NETT Brown. Sewell, Moore. Counts.
Morgan. Thomson. SCOTS, Doster.
Blank and holland In addition to the
% varsity players. the scrub team will
| be carried along by Coach Scott as a
recognition of their faithful work in
scrimmages with the first team.
The Sewanee game means much to
Alabama. First there is that uncon-
querable thirst to defeat the Sewanee
| jinx that so long ruled supreme over
| the Crimson and White. Then Ala
! bama wishes to remain in the race for
| S. l. A. \. honors so that she can take
| on Vanderbilt next Saturday with a
clean slate. If the Crimson squad can
defeat Sewanee by large score then
/ naturally there will rise some hope of
defeating Coach McGugin's outfit at
Nashville.
Regardless of Alabama's Unsuitable
desire to tie another knot in the
| Tigers tall she is going TO fight clean
Judging from past games. Sewanee
| will also fight fair and square. The
| Tuscaloosa eleven will weigh on an
| average about $50 pounds Accordin;

Coach Scott will stop at the Tutwi1eI

time the Purple Tiger and host of
followers will shake the cinders from
their travelling robes and dismount
from an A. G. S. Pullman at the Ter
minal station.
Speculation as to the outcome of the
hectic battle today increases as the
time grows apace. Sewanee, always a
poor starter, has as usual succeeded in
getting big odds, the wise ones basing
their dope on the Tigers mediocre
showing against Georgia and Ken.
lucky 1t is pointed out. however, that
comparative scores have meant moth
ing in the past.
In 1917. the date of the last meeting
of these football enemies, Alabama
beat Howard college "a to 0. while Sc
vance was lucky to hold Howard to
a 6 to tie. The Alabama -Sewanee
game that year ended 3 and 8. In bag
Cling over the odds Crimson hackers
also point to the fact that Alabama
has won but two games from Sewanee
in the past 25 years, one of them %
to 10 in 1915 and the other to 6 in
1915
PAST SCORES WORTHLESS
In 1914 Alabama beat Tech 10 to 0
and Tech walbped the stuffin' out of
Sewanee, but the Tigers came here
and beat Alabama IS to O.. So it would
seem that those who are basing their
wagers on comparative scores are not
expecting history to repeat itself this
afternoon.
