Coach MarshaIl's Squad Will Spend Week In Vigorous Training for Big Game
 of the Year
Fly MAXWELL ALLEN

It IS only five days. now until the big scrap between the ,Panthers and the Bull dogs takes place at Redwood field, and the Bulldogs, knowing that the betting odds point III the Birmingham squad s favor, are still training desperately for the game which they had rather win more than any other game of the season.
 The line is the thing that has been worrying Howard supporters more than anything else for, while they fight hard and are pretty husky bunch of fellows, the linesmen are lighter than the beefy bunch that they will have to run up Iagainst Saturday, and for the most part they have had less experience. How over, Coach Marshall has been working them hard for the past two weeks, and they are beginning to display little more knowledge of how the game on the line should be played than they have dis played thus far this season. and while they are going to have to face line that is much heavier than they are, and one that has also had more experience, they are beginning to loom up as a pretty rugged barrier for the powerful backs of the Birmingham-Southe squad to try to fo

Georges Has
 Respect For
 Mighty Jack

Paris, November 14.-Georges Carpenter, the heavyweight champion of Europe, returned from America richer by 1,000,- 000 francs and with a greater respect for the fighting ability of Jack Dempsey, world title holder.
 Carpenter, who was never boastful even before leaving France, when he had not yet seen Dempsey, said on his return that Dempsey was considered in America to be q super fighter" but that he would meet him with as much confidence as he did the B9tish fight. CTS, Wells and Beckett, whom ht knocked out.
 'sThe newspapers,s said Carpentier reported him as saying heswould lead me to the slaughter like an OK. I don't believe it. I have met Dempsey, who is really a very amiable gentleman. J even had one match with him, which won--but that was at golf DempseyS kind thought in sending me a wireless message when off Nantucket wishing us .godspeed was very gentlemanly."
 The boastful remark attributed tt Carpentier's manager, Deschamp. at the Jersey City ball park. that Carpenter would beat the champion in two rounds has now been modified to such expres sions as: '"The difference in weight If pounds would be a great handicap and The man who lands the first blow will win" Deschamps appeared proud of the concession he succeeded in get ting from the romoters--the privilege of making Carpenters forfeit deposi in scrip of the new French loan, which will be placed in J.

1920 Season IOf Vandy Has
 Been Tragic
Commodores Are Exactly One Touchdown and a Goal Be- hind Their Opponents.
 vandy of 1921 Season
By J. L. RAY

Sporting Editor Nashville Banner.
 Back in the good old days when a southern eleven crossed Ia Commodore goal line the enemy celebrated the feat with festivities almost equal to those reserved for a victory.
 It was one of the fcats for the books: with an actual defeat of Vanderbilt one of the rarities of the pigskin age.
 But nowadays the old e.der changeth. The Commodores them selves have to fight. to get over an enemy goal line, and the topping of the colors is no uncommon feat.
 Glancing over the cold figures on he seasons schedule, Vanderbilt pre- sents one of the worst records of an impor- tant southern eleven rn many yeats. Tho ghosts of the great teams that em- braced such men as Ray Morrison, Ls w. lie Hardage, Annie Sykes, Stein stone, John Edgerton, Honus Craig. Big .ix" Hamilton, Buddy Morgan. the Blaaes. the Browns, and even on down through the days of Rabbit" Currey shrink into the shadows as the scorek seper announces the. statistics.

Auburn Rout or ". and [.
 Was Feature

Atlanta, November 14.-Au- burns rout of Washington and Lee in what had been expected to prove a fairly close game for the Plainsmen, was the out standing feature of the past week in Southern football, which also saw the list of big teams that have not lost to an- other Dixie eleven reduced to five.
 Not only was Auburns 77to-0 victory a greater score than any other big southern team has piled up this year against another conspiuous eleven but it removed the Generals from the list of teams that had not lost this sea son on a southern gridiron. The other team to drop out from the coveted place was Mississippi Agricultural and Mec- h1nical, which fell before Tulane, 6 to O. due largely to the wonderful broken field work of Captain Wight of Tulane in returning punts.
 FIVE TEAMS LEFT
 The five teams now left with clean southern records are Alabama uni versity, Georgia Tech, Georgia universi- ty, Tulane and Virginia Military insti- tue. Alabama, Georgia and V. M. L have not been beaten by any teams, while Techs only loss was to Pitts burg, and Tulane's only defeat was by Michigan. Numbers of other strong southern teams have lost but one game during the season.
 Next Saturdays programme, which will be featured by the Alabama-Geor- gia contest, and the final games on Thanksgiving day will close the season for practically all southern elevens and with the laying aside of football togs in sight, it begins to appear that ". M l. is destined to prove the great est scoring machine in the south, if not in the country. Taking part in eight games, the Flying Squadron" has run up 407 points to 13 for its opponents Along with it's powerful offense, the Cadet team ranks fourth among the big southern teams in defense according to unofficial records compiled here. These show Georgia university first in defense with only field goal by Captain Knox of Oglethorpe scored against it's team the records show Auburn with total of $40 to 15, second in high scores, with other big southern elevens ranking a& follows:

LAST YEARS MARK

Last year the Commodores were even more shy on points. Through their eight games. the Gold and Black piled up grand total of 109 to their ppo- nents' 6S. But Vanderbilt had a won- der defense last year. and the dropping of such defensive stars as Josh Cody. Tom Lipscomb, Ali Adams and others was a blow too great to counteract in single season. Rebuilding the de- fense is proving one of the greatest tasks encountered by the Vanderbilt coaches this season.

His method of instruction cou- pied with his broad knowledge of plays in use by the leading colleges of the country, has won the approval of veteran players and close students of the game, and few will contradict the lstatement that the former Michigan star is without peer among the south |ern institutions.

 There is no reason why she should not still be charming in spite of everything. She is still a woman, and there are warm depths of nature which repay those who make claim

When A Girl Marries

 "Yes," replied, "Pll get busy right away. Was she with Evvy and Mir West and Sheldon again ?''
 Pat told me that she had been with the same crowd added another plea that I do something about it and ended our conversation. At this in stant I determined that since Jim wouldn't interfere there was only one thing for me to do.
 The immediate necessity was to down to Carriers. Terry greeted me joyfully on my arrival. "Bless your heart, Sister Anne you're the first, as I hoped you'd be. part of what I feel about your about your-giving me my Betty, Terry, dear. I didn't; you just naturally won her"
 "Jove Anne--what's the use of our pretending to each other? You did the best part of my wooing for me and the luck Of it is that the misses is as pleased as I am. There's noth- ! from us and not get. That's abso- 1ute!'
 "I'n take you up on that some. day" I laughed. Then Virginia arrived-and only Virginia. Tony had been out Of town when Terry phoned and Jim on the floor of the Eexchange where he couldn't be reached. So we had a cosy little lunch and a gay, time

BEAUTY CHATS

case of the woman of fashion. who must always look exquisite But even in the case of those women, the only attention which the nails get every day is that the cuticle is pushed back around each nail with the orange wood stick. the end of which is dip ped either in lemon juice or some mild bleach like it, or an astringent cuticle cream.
 The under part of the nail, of course, is kept beautifully white and clean, but never with the air of any artificial paste. At the most a little lemon juice is used as bleach. With the daily use of the orangewood stick and with daily brisk buffing to keep the nails polished and to stimulate the circulation, they need a more thorough manicure only once a week.
 There is a fad here for very pink nails. These can be achieved by purchasing the regular nail rouge which comes for tinting Or by using lip rouge or face rouge on them. It is a pretty fad if not carried to eA- tremes, and it is a perfectly harmless one since a pink powder rubbed into the nails is no worse than a white one.

We know that with perseverance and patience, combined with proper daily care, any ordinary skin may be made attractive, and a naturally at tractive skin positively beautiful. In treating the face particularly knowledge of the structure of the skin is most important.
 The muscles of the face are covered by a layer of fat upon which skin proper rests. This layer of fat gives the graceful contour to the face. When it is lacking the skin falls in- ward, producing hollows or causing the formation of folds and unsightly wrinkles.
 While the skin is more or less elas- tic it has not the power to overcome entirely the loss pr falling in of weak ened muscles or less of fat, and event. uaIiy loses its own vitality for want of proper blood supply and then takes on a dry, shrivelled appearance. The blood vessels are particularly numerous in the skin of the face, and it is from the circulation that the flush or color of the skin is derived. The blood gives nourishment to the skin, therefore it becomes of the greatest importance to keep the gen. eral health in good condition and take as much exercise as possible to stimulate the circulation.
