 The UniUersity
By JACK FIREMAN

OulN0ISlty, D0CCllUcI A.- (Special.) - The wires have
 been kept tingling lately in an
 effort to get the Yale Universi- ty baseball squad to locate it's
 training camp at the University
 of Alabama. The Yale man. agement has already signified it's intention of locating it's training camp in the south, and Coach Bernier has extended them an invitation to come here.
 Alabama offers an ideal location fer a college baseball training camp. of
 fering better facilities than any point in the south Denny field has a turtle back grass infield which rivals :hat of any professional field, while it's gym rasium is amply large to accommodate 40 or 50 men without inconvenien7ing the Alabama varsity squad. Opposite the gymnasium, on the campus. is am OtneT line turLIe-Ddck grass Qlsl.H Ouu, which will be put in shape.
 ILLINOIS TO RETURN George Huff and his Illinois squad will return to Denny field again in April, as has been the custom. It would indeed be a great thing for southern intercollegiate baseball to have at the university the teams from Yale, which are recognized as among the greatest in the east; Illinois, the supreme ruler in the west. and Ala bama, the most successful developer of big league material of any college in the south. With these three great teams training together, great things mi ght be expected.
 At present, the university has two big league players, sent up from Denny field; namely, Joe Sewell, who played in the recent world series, and Lena" Styles, a member of Conny Mack's catching staff Both these men are taking college work leading to their degrees, and would be excellent materi- al for polishing up the cole gians in big league style.
 merce is also behind the project Of landing the training camps at the uni versity for the Eli squad.
 After signing a contract for two years further service with the Crimson tide, Coach Ken c. Scott left the uni versity Tuesday morning, motoring with his family to ghs home in Cleve- land, Ohio, where he is sporting edi- tor of the Plain Dealer. Scott will re- turn to the university next September, when he will enter his third year of service with the Crimson and White team.
 Alabama's 1921 football schedule is almost ready to be announced, only a
 few dates remaining to be closed. New CT before has Alabama received so many offers as she has had this year. Two invitations from the Western con- ference have already been declined. MAY MEET EASTERN TEAM If Alabama plays any intersectionai games next year they will be with east ern teams. Director Bernier is now in communication with Yale, Princeton and Columbia in the hopes of securing an engagement with one of these teams
 for the powerful Alabama eleven. The
 usual clashes with Sewanee, vaady, Georgia and Mississippi A. and M have
 already been contracted for and Ala
 bama is receiving more offers from Isouthern schools than she can ,ossi- 1 bly, accept.
 This is evidence of the extreme pop- ularity of the Crimson tide. Director Bernier leaves the university next week for Florida, where he attends the mest- Ing of the Southern Intercollegiate Ath- letfc association at Gainesville Bernier is now in the midst of pre- parations for strong basketball quin- tet for Alabama this winter. Girls basketball is engaging consid- erable attention at Alabama just at this time. Some splendid material is being developed and one game has already been played with the quintet from Gem tral college.
