FRED SMITH PICKS ALL-STATE ELEVEN
Prep Stars Earn Berths on All-Star Team-Hard Job
 to Dope Out Eleven ..
By FRED SMITH

Picking an all-state prep team is no ,asy proposition this year, for there are many teams with star players on them hat it would take at least three picked cams to give each player all what he de- erves. The writer has not had the pleas re of seeing all the teams in the state in lction. But were I coaching a team l
 ould like to have the following:
 First Team-Ends: Peck (Ensley) and
 arks (CentraD; tackles. Sweet and homas (Bessemer); guards, Weaver s,nsley). Brown CIetowah); center, School
 1nsey) quarterback, Crane Central; ; aifbacks, Rives Jefferson county, and
 ountree Morgan county; fullback, Baty 3essemer).
 Second Team-Ends, Propst Fayettel nd Johnston (Bessemert; tackles, Bra an and Rox tCentraD guards, Jones CentraD and Salters; center, McNeD CentraD: quarterback, Keith (Jefferson ounty); halfbacks, Merritt (Bessemer) md Gaylord (CentraD; fulIback, Wads 5orth (Sidney Lanier).
 l do not expect every one to agree with ne on these teams. In fact, would be realty surprised if any one agreed with Ye on them. But, as I said before, there re SC many schools to pick from that it would be impossible to give every man justice.
 Summing up the teams, I find that Peck If E.i sley and Barlss of Central are about he best ends that you will find in the state Both of these men have played a constant brand of ball all season. At the tackles I pick two Bessemer men Sweet and Thomas and I class these men as the best that any one will find. They are both good defense men. and if it had not been for their good offensive work, it would not have been possible for Baty to have starred as he did.
 For the guards there are several good nen. ard it is hard to say which is the best, but my choice is Weaver of Ensley and Brown Of Etowah. Weaver is a tackle, but I am shifting him to guard IS he has played guard in several games ard he has proven his ability to stop line .plunges He is also a good offensive man. and with Brown at the other guard they should come up with any in the state.
 At Center School of Ensley stands head and shoulders above the rest. He is an accurate passer, and one of the best de. feresive centers seen in the state in sew ral years McNeil of Central and Grisby of Bessemer also deserve some honors or their showing with their teams.
 The hack field is probably the biggest

 MALARIA THAN ID PAY DOCTOR BILLS
Experiments Show It Can Be Brought Under Con- trOl By Simple
 Measures
By Assooiaied Prrss

New York, November 30.-ExperiIpents by the Rockefeller institute in controlling malaria in the southern states show that fa the average southern community it is cheaper te prevent malaria than to have ii destroyed. Iu other words that this socurge which greatly reduces the work ing efficiency of the population in many sections, may be brought under effective control for less money than Is ordinarily spent in doctors pills by malaria patients. Nh account Of the institute work in this direction. which has been in progress snce 19le, is given in the annual report os the organization.
 Gampaiens undertaken in six Arkansas towns of from 1000 to 900 population. in which the disease in d severe form was widely prevalent resulted in reducing the number of physicians calls in malaria ,ases bv gfS per cent in the most favor aeel instance and by 74.4o per cent under the least favorable circumstances, at an initial per capita cost of from 46 cents to Si.z5 At Crossett, Ark, a town of 2029 DOT tioa, in which physicians in 1915 Has .50p calls on malaria patients the tua bel Of calls fe}l in 1916 to I'll. in 1917 to 200, and in l1S to s, the per capita cost in each of the three years being sl.24, s cents and 5 cents.
 At & per physician call me report states. "Crossett has been paying annu- ally more than four and one-half times as much in doctors bills alone for the priv lege of having mala ria as it expended in 1918 for the upkeep of the work which kept it practically free from malaria and from the mosquito as a pest.

cause for the retirement of the two mem bers from the board.
 Ii will be recalled that both Mir. Nor TO wand MT. Bankhead were active in their opposition to certain features of the revenue bill, especially the tonnage tax on coal and iron ore, while Presi- dent Denny vigorously supported the measure, including the tonnage tax.
 Members of the board of trustees de- clned to intimate or forecast who would be chosen to fill the two vacan- cies, and no expression was made as to the possibility of refusing to accept the resignations of MT. Morrow and MT Bankhead and trying to get them to re- consider.
 The two men most prominently men toned in connection with the vacancy from the Ninth district are Hill Fergu- - son and Borden IL Burr. A number of names of well known alumni of the university from the Tenth district have been suggested but it has been impos- sible to get the members of the board to commit themselves regarding their probable choice

BIKE RACE
 IS ON AT NEW YORK

New York. November s0.-The an nual six-day bicycle race began to- night at the Madison Square Garden over track which measures nine laps to the mile. For the past 2s years this event which marks the opening of the winter indoor sports season. was de- cided on 1o-lap track, but this year the management decided to enlarge the wooden bowl to obtain greater speed and to avoid spills on the turns.
 In addition to the cash prizes for tho winning and placed teams at the fin ish of the event. $500 will be awarded to winners of sprints to be held each day. Fifteen teams, picked from the best riders in the world. 10 of whom are champions in their respective classes, make up the thoroughly inter national field ot starters, as follows:

 doubt of the whole team, as you will find some good backs on every team in the state. However, my choice is Crane of Central for quarter. This boy showed what he could do in the Georgia Tech and Bessemer games. He not only starred in these games, but he has played a constant brand of ball all the season. When he is in a hole he uses his head Waller of Bessemer, Keith of Jefferson county, and Walker of Ensley also de- serve mention.
 At the halves there are so many stars that it is impossible to say which is the best Rives of Jefferson county and Rountree of Morgan county are my pick. Other star backs are Merritt and Deason of Bessemer, Gaylord and Hawkins of Central, and Cook and Cushen of Ensley At full there is no doubt but what Baty of Bessemer is the best while Wadsworth of Sidney Lanier and Reynolds of Gen. tral did some good work and deserve mention.

Atlanta, November 30.-The new regu- lations which go into effect at noon Monday are as far reaching in many re- spects as those of the war-winter of 1917-1S and in it's announcement to the public the committee stated that unless miners returned to work in such numbers as to provide a substantial increase of coa' at an early date "still further re- strictions may become necessary, and consideration will have to be given to the distribution of stocks of coal now in the possession of industries not recognized as vital"
 The new restrictions will be enforced under the wartime powers of the fuel ad- ninistration. They provide chiefly that stores and office buildings may use heat, light or power oply between a. m. and 4 D. m. Certain other exceptions are made to provide for various industries and businesses.

 All advertising signs and billboards using electricity must be eliminated, as must whiteway lights, show windows and other liehts not strictly essential
 ESSENTIALS CONTINUE
 Industries, except those whose contin- uous processes cannot be interfered with may be operated only 4S hours a week Exceptions are made to meet the special conditions of railroad stations, hospitals telephone and telegraph and newspaper offices.
 Copies of the announcement which, were furnished to newspapers for Sunday morning publication will be mailed to mayors of all cities in the southern re- zion, which includes Alabama, Tennessee Georgia, North and South Carolina. Ken, lucky, Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana east of the Mississippi river.
 Fuel supplies will be cut off where the regulations are not observed and in case of violations of the law attention of fed eral district attorneys will be called to the matter. All railroad agents handling coal are regarded as representatives of

fraction of malaria's total cost to the community,
 Success in these towns has been at aimed by simple measures against the breeding places of the mosquito. In rural sections, where the disease is chiefly felt such measures are often impracticable Screening of houses by galvanized wire cloth was tested with marked success on 9 group of cotton plantations near Lake Village, Ark. the infection being reduced from 11.97 per cent to 3.52 per cent.
 Greatest hopes are, however placed upon measures directed toward eliminat- in gthe maralar parasite from the blood of the human carriers A test demon stration was conducted in a typical rural region in Sunflower county, Mississippi A survey of the population showed that 40 per cent had had clinical malaria within the year, and of the others 2 per cent were carriers with the malaria para site in their blood.
 All these were given quinine sterilizing treatment to eliminate the malaria para site. but the report records a reduction in the amount of malaria, esetimated by the director in charge al 80 per cent.
