Techs line Is not what il should be.
THson. Pierce and Captain Hardwick
are all seasoned men The additions
are Hall, OF the I916team and Parrish
who starred with the Naval Base
team last year. These men will In all
likelihood hold their places at tackle
and center respectively. Bernier has
several good men who are heavy
enough for the first line OF defense
but they are decidedly green.
II is very probable that Crisp, the
one-hand marvel will work at quarter
again this season. A quarterback
weighing over 100 pounds is some
thing unusual, but Bernier is rapidly
getting out Of the idea OF having
light men in the keystone position.
IN all probability. il will be Crisp
and Redd who will break the way
for the man carrying the ball this
year and from past performances this
husky pair should 50 protect the run

Marian Neal sang "The Rose of No Mans Land,' which was greatly appre- ciated, and Mrs. Mary Gillen and Miss Berney Gillen, whose recitals are always enjoyed by a Bessemer audience, appeared on the programme. Mrs. Gillen responded to two encores very graciousy with some of her compositions in songs and read ings.
 The sing was arranged especially to honor and emphasize the work of the Red Cross, and the address of the after noon was made by J. K. Brockman, chair man of the Jefferson county home ser- vice department of the Red Cross. Miss Corinne Chisolm made an interesting talk about the special work of the Bessemer office, and was followed by G. H. Stew enson, chairman of the Bessemer office, who made short talk about the work.
 Altogether the sing was distinct suc- cess, and brought together the largest crowd that has assembled in Bessemer for sometime.
