The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1919-11-15


Late yesterday afternoon, the Central
fast train for Atlanta, where they will
meet the Tech High eleven today
Coach Burbage was in charge of the
squad which journeyed to the windy
city, and he announced before the de-
parture that most of his men were in
excellent condition.
Just when Coach Burpage thought
that he had. things working smoothly,
the local crew was greatly weakened
by stroke of misfortune. Three re-
gulars were disqualified from playing
any more football this year. Yielding,
who has been playing varsity left end
this season, Jimmy Hood. and Carlysle
were the unlucky men. Hood has been
alternating at the half back positions
with Gaylord and Hawkins, while Car
'ysle has been out for end. The whirl-
wind showing oil Carlysle this week
had practically assured him OF var
sity berth, and Coach Burbag was
looking for great things from him IN
the next few games on Centrars sche-
dule. Neither one of the three can
play with the team any more this sea-
son.
Coach Burbage will be somewhat put
to it to fill the places of the absent
men. Hood was his only extra half.
while Yielding and Carlysle were two
of his best ends. Gideon was taken to
Atlanta, and he will fill in Hoods
place as alternate half, while Weaver
will hold down the left wing position.
With the exception of the loss of the
three men, the Central team is in ex-
cellent shape for today's battle with
Tech. Hard practice has smoothed out
the rough places on the line. and con-
slant drill has bettered the team work
Of the backfield. Although the odds
are against them today. the Crimsons
will not go into battle to be walked
upon. for they expect to give good
account OF themselves, and Coach Bug.

125 points.
Shifting to the quarterbacks, one dis
covers that link of Amherst has scored
Sc points of the ia rolled up by his
team. Amherst doesn't rank among the
big eleYens in the country. Yet Amherst
has played some of the best teams in
the east and link has been the starry
performer of each combat He has
handled his team in remarkable fashion
and his individual brilliance has been
one of the big reasons for the success
Of Amherst.
Perhaps the great quarterback in the
game today is, Boyrton of Williams. He
has scored IS points for his team out
Of the 81 which is annexed in the first
six games. Boynton is a marvellous line
smasher, a brilliant end runner and one
of the greatest kickers in the business.
Ackley of Syracuse, Rawlings of Navy.
Hite of West Virginia, DeHart of Pitts
burg and Anderson of Colgate others
who have figured spectacularly in the
achievements of their elevens.
The best scoring halfback of the year
POINTS OR GAINS
is Andy Hastings of Pittsburg Five
touchdowns, eight goals after touch
down and two goals from field--a total
of a. points is his showing Hastings
has made almost half of the total points
rolled up by his team in the first five
games. But does that make Hastings a
greater halfback than Erickson of Wash
ington and Jefferson who has scored So
points out of Y for Washington and
Jefferson in four games? Is Hastings,
because of his greater scoring power,
the peer of Tom Davies, the sensational
Pittsburg teammate of Hastings?

of a mythical All-American eleven in
1919 surely will be confronted with
most difficult task.
The backfield situation alone is one
tia will involve the burning of much
midnight oil.
Praises OF no player of the passing
season have beel sung more highly than
those of Clio. the great Colgate full
back He has been a tower strength
on the defense, and wonderful man
extensively. Reams have been written
about him and because of this the inn
preston exists that Clio has been
mighty factor in rolling up scores for
Colgate. But the record shows that in
four games played, Clio has annexed
only two touchdowns and one goal after
touchdown-a total of 10 points.
ROGERS SCORES SO
On the other hand there is Rodgers
of West Virginia. Not an awful lot
was said about him until West Virginia
crushed Princeton. The playing of
Rodgers in that combat awakened the
public to his worth as a fullback. And
the perusal of his record shows that
this youth has scored II touchdowns and
kicked q goals after touchdown. He
has scored SO points for West Virginia
Between Gillo and Rodgers, who is
greater?
There are other fullbacks in a game
who have shown remarkable ability this
year. r. Horween of Harvard is among
them He has scored IS of the 179 points
amassed in Harvards first SIX games
Braden of Yale has made four touch
downs, seven goals after touchdown

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1919.
VALUABLE FEATURE Or GoV
ERNMENT INSURANCE..

your Government insurance IS pro-
tected from the claims of creditors
Your insurance money can not ne
taken away from you (or later from
YOUR beneficiary for the payment OF
vour debts or those Of your bench
ciary. This is most important pro-
vision, which insures your insurance.
Government insurance is non-as-
signable, which means that neither
YOU nor your beneficiary can lose.
In connection with this converted
insurance the Bureau asks the right
so to frame the policy forms that If
the insured desires to have his con-
yerted insurance paid in one sum, he
may so elect; and if he wishes his
benefciaries to receive the install
ments within, say, three years 'rarh-
er than over a period of twenty, he
may also so elect.
It also asks the privilege so to
draft the converted policies that a
man may designate his beneficiary
who will receive all the payments.
Thus, if man wants his wife as a
beneficiary and does not want the
installment payments after her death
to 60 to sister or a brother, the
policy will provide that installments
will be paid to the wife and on her
death the remaining installments to
her estate. .- e.. :... "
During the war, if soldier took
out an insurance policy and was
killed and did not leave any beneE-
ciary who could take the insurance
money, the policy reverted to the
Government. Also conditions have
entirely changed, due TO the cessa-
ton of active warfare, the Bureau
asks that this forfeiture be elimina'-
ed from the act so that in IL. case
will the Government forfeit an in
surance claim.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Ray
burn, Of Texas, and those of otner
members widening the provisions
fer payment Of disabled ! soldiers,
have the Endorsement of the Bureau.
BY these bills a man totally pe1paa-
nently disabled will receive $1o0 in
stead of $50, as at present (s.03 be-
ing paid now only in specified cascs) ,
and man with one leg OF will ye-
ceive a percentage Of $10) rather
t::an a percentage Of $50, as at pres
ent. The amounts payable if he is
temporarily totally disabled are con-
81 ably increased by ;hes's bills and
are deemed more nearly to fit pres
ent-day conditions, taking into &C.
count the present high cost of living.
Provision is made in bill intro
duced by Mr.. Sweet to pay 5000 III
case of double total permanent dis
ability. There is only one known
case of this kind in the country, the
man having lost both eyes and both
arms. If this becomes an act he
would therefore receive $500 from
the compensation feature of the act
and $3.50 from the insurance fea-
ture.
