DILLON FEELING VERY PESS|M|ST|C Bulldog Coach States That His Team Is All Shot
 to Pieces

Coach Chester Dillon is not feeling at all sure over the outcome of today's game with the Birmingham-sout Partners. He states that his team is all shot to pieces and that his most promising men are lost to the team. Dillon's statement follows in part:
 It will be patched up team that will face the Methodists Tuesday night. Carr, one of the fastest and best men on the team, veteran of last year, is accepting a good business position in Charlotte, N. C., as salesman for the Hutto Bros, who have the North Carolina agency for Spauldings goods. His fight, speed and accuracy either at forward or at his regular position of running guard, will be greatly missed. He was the life of the team. One of the kind that had pep enough for the whole team. He is one of the best all-around athletes in school, being a great center fielder in baseball, and a brilliant defensive fullback in foot ball.
 "The loss of Carr is very considerable in itself but when it is found that the man best fitted to step into his shoes is lost to the team also, the prospects for victory in the big game are anything but bright. Sarget, the fast, scrappy little guard, has been showing up in flashy form during the past month in basket ball, but in checking up the work done in scholastic lines during the past sem ester, it was found that he has not shone so brilliantly there. According to a recent ruling adopted by the collese, a student who does not pass three-ffths of his semester's work may not continue his studies in the college. Hence some of Towards strongest men in athletics are lost for the present at least. Most pronli- nent among such are Louis Walker, the best college pitcher in the state, and Sargent, who is fielder and third base man that any college would be glad to get.
 "The promising squad of twelve good men who were being worked into strong basketball machine in January has been cut down to about eight. Besides the loss of Carr, Sargent and Louis Walker, the team has just lost the services Of Martin, the fast little forward of the 191e team and one of the best pitchers that the college has had in the past few

RIG BUSINESS ON HAN9 FOR BARON|AL
 BASEBALL MOGULS
Chubby Chieftain of Barons Returns Full of Pep," and Ready for Lots
 of Hard Work

Carleton Molesworth, vet eran baseballer and manager of the Birmingham club, has ar- rived home at last, and after spending yesterday greeting his friends and looking over the field of his endeavors of the coming months, announced last night that he will get down to real work today in preparation for the fast approaching 1920 season of the Southern League.
 The next thirty days VIII be busy ones for the chubby pilot of the Barons and for Col. "Quack Smith, president Of the club. There are many contracts to LOOK over, and many players to be consluereu Aside from the matter of contracts, there are numerous other things to attend to, such as the opening and repairing of the park, and the many matters concerning 8 baseball club.
 As yet there is little real dope on the 1920 Barons. With the exception of Billy Webb, who was returned to the Pirates, EQQle McD0nalQ, QlSpOSeu VI tV the Wichita club, and Lucy" Hairston, who is expected to retire from the na- tional pastime, all of the 1919 Barons Will probably return for tryouts.
 John Peters, giant backstop of last sea- son, has already returned a signed con- tract, while Ellis and Bernsen, two de- pendable players who can be counted upon to furnish the neded hit in pinch, have expressed their intentions Of putting in their bids for berths
 The whole string of last years pitch CTS will report for the training season. Aside from these worthies. several young twrlers will also report, two or three or whom are said to be "all to the gravy
 Conway and Black, two veteran second basemen, will be given trials. These are but a few of the many who are expected to report for the spring training
 The Barons are entitled to nine vet erans. and it is certain that some first class players will be included in this num- Der. There are one or two deals going on when, when announced, will cause the heart of every faithful Baron packer to jump with joy and anticipation.
 Moley stated that he was going out for the pennant this year, and that nothing would be spared to attain this end Profting by the example set by Charlie Frank, who won the rag for Atlanta last year with a set of youngsters, Molesworth has looked all over the country and has gotten together bunch of candidates from which he hopes to mould together winning combination. The names and pedigrees of these youngsters will be d. vulged at later date, so stated the chubby pilot.
 Birmingham baseball headquarters at the Birmingham Arms Company will be, a Lasy place from now on. Col. "Quack" Smith and Moiesworth will begin work immediately. It is rumored that there will be some real startling dope" given out in the next few days.

OANTHFRS n MEET
 BULLDOGS TON|GHT
Local College Quintets to Clash at Y. M. c. A. at
 8:30 O'Clock

At S:30 o'clock tonight the thinly clad cage warriors of Birmingham Southern and Howard will grace the court of the local Central "Y'' to grap- pie in mortal combat for the decision in little basketball game. The an cient rivals, the vicious Panther and the tenacious Bulldog, will stage the classic cage argument of the season when the referees whistle blows for hostilities to begin and, aided by the yells and encouragement of 500 college students, the scene at the "Y" court will present a veritable jungle in all it's feline and canine natures.
 The Panther quintet has just re- turned from short road trip to Mont gomery, where the capital city's "Y" aggregation gained the long end of a 26 to 19 count over the local bas- keteers.
 Coach Charlie Brown had his "un- camouflaged" athletes at the B A. c. last night practicing for the encounter with the East Lake collegians. and the Birmingham Southern basketball toss- CTS showed up well in the final prac- tice before the all-important contest.
 Coach Brown lined the varsity otin- tet up as follows in practice. and 1t is presumed that this will be the aggre- gation to begin hostllities against the Bulldogs tonight: Forwards, Capt. Mike" Morton and "Tanlac' Burney: center. Big Hoss'' Candy: guards Greek" Griffin and Coop" Green.
 Propst. the elongated center. and Miller. star guard will not be able to play. Miller has been sick with the flu for over ten days and is at pres .ent at the Birmingham Infirmary. His loss will seriously handiean tha da fensive power of the five Propst has just gotten up from the influenza and he will probably not be able to play at all If he gets a chance itfwill he only for short time. The loss of these two stars seriously affects the chances of the Brmin gham- Southern quintet for victory. but the followers of the Methodists hone that the Pan- ther coach has instilled enough team work in the aggregation that takes the floor to bring home the bacon
 On the Panther squad, Coach Brown has two nifty little forwards in Capt Mike Norton and John Burney Nor ton played a star game for the locals in their tanele with the Montgom erians. and the Methndists place much confidence in the captain of the Ga.;n- let. Big Hoss'' Candy although his regular position is guard should nlay good game at Center. Greek Griffin and Cooper Green comnose the de- fensive element of the aggregation Griffith has been doing good work for the Panthers and played one of the hest games Of his career against thef Montgomery 'fy last Friday night Much of the defense of the Panther nnintet will evolve about the work of this sturdy cage athlete, and according tn reports he will do his part well.

years He has accepted position in the Texas oil fields with the Standard Oil Company.
 'fIn spite of the loss of these four first team men, the Bulldogs have no thought of postponing the game until new team can be built up. They will enter the con test with the consciousness of the big handicap that they must overcome, and hope to make up for the losses by their greater efforts.''

him in the outfield, provided they can not secure a regular gardener. If the do, it is more than likely that Ruti will supplant Pipp at first. But the lik, lihood is that Pipp will be retained e. the initial station and that Ruth will cavort in the garden.
 One hundred and twenty-five thousan dollars is a staggering price to spend f, ' any ballplayers-in addition to payir him an annual salary of s20.oOo. But # Ruth clouts the ball in dupication of h l9lo fashion he will be worth every dellal paid.
 RUTH'S VALUE GREAT
 Ruth should be the magnet that " ] attract at least 2,100 extra fans each da through at least three more season That's 300,0o0 persons yearly-90.0o0 in | three seasons. Figured al 5N cents hea that means an intake of $45000o, of whle the Tanks will get at least 50 per cent or s225.00o. And that's far more than tl total purchase price for Ruth and three seasons of salary.
 And, in addition. the Tanks will be a., increased drawing card if Ruth, wi his huge mace, keeps them in one or other of the pennant fights. Should Tanks win pennant in either of tho years their share of world series mon will be more than they paid for Ru5 And they'd still have him and still cou sel him at any time they wanted for a mighty sizeable sum
 Ore hundred and twenty-five thousal dollars is big sum of money-but seems. when all things are analysed, tn it wasn't too much to pay for the grea est slugger of all time

Doesn't it make you feel good-cause you to straight en up and feel "chesty"- when someone guesses your age at ten years or so younger than you really are? You look into your mirror, smile with satisfac- tion and say to yourself: Well, he didn't make such a bad guess, at that"
 The point is: You're no older than your vitality.
 If a man is strong, vigor- ous, mentally alert, fine and fit at 50 he has a better chance of living up to 30 than a man of 30 who is weak and rundown has of living up to 60. While none of us can stay the years nor stop time, we should all make an heroic effort to suc- cessfully resist the effects of time by ever keeping our vitality at par.
