Boorde WEI
 Battle BudG; Jack Has Flu
By "poKEs AND JABs.y

Freddie Boorde of the Bir- mingham Athletic club will meet Battling Budd of Atlanta Wednesday night (Thanksgiy- ing Eve), instead of Jack Brady, who is laid up with a severe case of influenza.
 Brady was originally scheduled to meet Boorde, but word was received yesterday that Brady is seriously i'll, so the B. A. C. officials at once got in communication with Battling Budd of Atlanta, and were very fortunate in securing his services for the holiday eve.
 In meeting Budd, Boorde will face the has beaten Larry Avera twice on his own stamping grounds, which is saying quite a mouthful. He has also beaten such men as Red Herring, Jimmy Minor, Sailor Blanque and other top notch boys. Boorde has held Larry Avera to a draw once and beaten him once, so he
 
 to get crack at his former toWnsman
 Battling Budd is a very crafty boxer, as well as an exceptionally hard hit ter. To beat him, Boorde will have to fight harder than he has ever fought before. Boorde has trained hard and faithfully for this coming fight, and is in the pink of condition His great num- Der of followers will no doubt back him to the limit.
 Boorde has gained a great number Of friends since coming to Birmin gham by his earnest work and hard fighting In Boorde the B. A. c. has one of the most promising featherweights seen in these parts in many moon, and with care- ful training and living should develop into a star in. the future. Freddie, who has been getting down to fighting weight for Brady, will be able to relax a little in the next two days and take on some weight, as he is giving Budd about nine pounds.
 The present card should be far bet ter one than the original, as both boys have met and defeated practically the same men, but have never met each other.
 Budd fights on the same style as Larry Ayera, whom local fandom will remember as the man who fought such a hair-raising battle with Dummy Bar rington at the B. A. c. last summer. When one thinks of the great fighter Avera is and that Budd has beaten him twice. he can see visions of another great treat in store for local fandom next Wednesday night.
 When told of the change, Boorde said it was just the chance he has been awaiting for many a day. He has all ways had an ambition to beat Battling Budd. Perhaps his wish shall be grant ed, and then again--oh, well, it will be best for all to come around to the B. A c. on Thanksgiving Eve and see for themselves.
 Jack Parry will referee and Colonel Landgrebe and George Walters will act as judges.
 The first preliminary bout will com mence at S:30 p. m. sharp.

 SIXTH CONFERENCE GAME

Minneapolis, November 20. Minne- sota rounded out the most disastrous football season in her history today when Michigan snatched a 3-to-0,tvic- tory, marking the Gopher's' 'yixth straight big ten conference defeat this year.

 After an exchange of punts in the second period, Captain Neal Arnstson of Minnesota circled Michigan's right end, then fumbled as he was tackled, and the Wolverines recovered on the Gophers' 15-yard line.
 Michigan lost on two end plays, but put theN ball directly in position for the kick from placement. Steketee booted the ball 2S yards squarely be- tween the posts.

The Benz car now holds 19 state records and 67 track records for speed, most of them made after Stone rebuilt the Benz for dirt.

Many drivers are free for entry at the Birmingham races, and the influx of stars is greater at this time than at any time of the year. Evidence of this comes with the entries of such drivers as Wat ters (ChavroleD Rountree (Essex), Stone (Duesenberg and Benz), Buchanan (Chalmers), "B. V. D.

Track Stars
 Fast Signing Up for Racing

Proof that the great st galaxy of dirt track stars who have ever circled the Birming- ham mile oval at Fair park will be here next Thursday and Saturday afternoon comes with the entries of the past week, which include practically all of the leading dirt track drivers of the day.
 Larry D. Stone, holder of the worlds g dirt track championship with p state and district records and worlds records to his credit this year, has placed his en- try with Ralph Hankinson and will be on hand with both his fast and famous DUesenberg race cars and also with the gigantic Blitzen Benz racer which boasts an original purchase price of sS5.00o. and has 300 horsepower
 The Benz is readily conceded the great est race car of the age. Although built in 1910, this famous car is just as mod ern in construction as if it had just re- gently come from the factory This is due to the fact that Stone, himself a great automotive engineer, has recon structed the Benz so that it may now serve the purpose of a dual race car, being available for speed on both dirt tracks and the beach courses.
 Stone showed his real caliber in his first race in the south at Meridian, Miss. last week, when he clipped four seconds of Johnnie Raimey's state recod there on the half-mile track and set up mark that will be shot at by many before beaten by any race driver.
