FavoriteS of the Day Are Not Even Pushed to
 Win

Atlanta, october 19.-Little compe- titon for the winners was developed in the grand circuit races here today. In the 2:12 trot the Great volo easily outclassed the field and won in straight heats.

 Edna Early driven by Thomas, won the first two heats of the 9;o3 pace pretty much as she pleased, but was out-raced by Hazel Keustner in the third heat.
 Marie Cecile Watts. owned and driven by George Fisher of Nashville, won the 2:15 trot for southern horses in straight heats, being pushed right to the wire in each event by Cherry Abbe, handled by George Stiles of Rome, t1a.

vho voted against the submission or the amendment, told the house ne was against it because he believed the people of his county. by their vote last year. had expressed tnelr
 choice, and as their representative
 he didn't believe he should submit II
 to them again. He said something
 had been said on the floor about the
 people not understanding the propo-
 sition when they voted. but that he was wondering if the people didn't know about as much about 1t as The legislature and whether or not they
 would resent the return to them of
 a matter Which they had disposed Of
 last year.
 TunstaII Leads Debate.
 Alfred M. Tunstall opened the de-
 bate for the bill by saying he gen
 orally was opposed to the states
 engaging In works of internal .m-
 provement, but he was convinced that
 this was meritorious and would mean
 much to the state in the years to
 come. He said he was convinced that Frederick I. Thompson of Mobile,
 member of the shipping board. and
 Alabamas congressman could aid the port and that the chances favor tfe granting of further aid from the fed eral government.
 MT. Tunstall said he didn't believe the legislature should forego the opportunity of submitting the matter to the people again. He proposed the amendment limiting the amount of credit which the state may give
 to s10,0o0.o00 and with this amend
 ment adopted by a vote of "A to 0 all opposition disappeared.
 Lone Opponent.
 Mir. Long of Butter was the ,nly member who raised voice against the amendment. Those who appe lied
 for favorable vote were J.. w. Green | of Dallas. J. D. Jones of MarenSo. E. E. Blunt of Washington, w. J. Dansby of Choctaw, oscar L. Tomp- kins of Houston and Thomas F. Orr of Albertville. All declared that the development of the port of Mobile will mean more to the state in future years than human mind can contem- plate, and that Alabama should fol- | low the lead of Louisiana, which ex- pended more than $20.0o0.o00 on the development of the port of New Or leans, and which has not been forced | to pay one penny from the state | treasury, the interest and sinking fund having been cared for by port 1 charges which have been assessed | against those who received the direct benefit of the states improvements. Muscle Shoals and the Warrior river came into the discussion, and l the speakers declared that when
 Henry Ford has obtained Mu.cle Shoals and the port of Mobile has been developed all Alabama will re- ceive the benefit. The speaker also declared that the development of he port of Mobile and the states liver systems will mean great reductions | in freight rates, which will have a | favorable effect on all business.

YELLOW JACKETS
 READY FOR GAME
 WITH THE TIGERS
EnsIey Students to Turn Out in a Body to Cheer the
 Team on

When the Ensley Yellow Jackets spring into action against the Besse- rner Tigers at Redwood tomorrow i afternoon the football fans will see different team in the Yellow Jack cts than those formerly turned out by Ensley High, Not that it is in- ferior, but that the mode of de- lfense and offense has been so changed this year that their actions on the gridron will be greatly different from those accustomed to be seen of the Ensley aggregation.
 | Coach Jack Hovater has been rush. ing his gridders through a strenuous training course preparatory to the coming battle and has mapped out a complete change of programme that the team will use in this game.
 This year there are only five of,the old stars back. but new members have shown the proper stuff" and have filled the places creditably In the previous practice game of this sea son many defects in the team have been noted, and at the workout yes terday afternoon Coach Hovater ex- pressed himself as being well satis- fled with results obtained during the weeks practice.
 Yellow Jacket Stars
 With Polly" Scokels, Dog" Fay cite, Mendenhall, Williams and sew eral other stars. the Ensley eleven has much to count toward a victory against the Tigers. Mendenhall's 5 educated toe is calculated to set seY- eral spines a tingling when he punts his long graceful sprals. Scokels' forward passing ability is one of the greatest assets that the team has. Williams, the plucky alI-state center, who played in the Ensley Central tilt last Thanksgiving with three broken ribs, is back again this year and es- tablishing new record at center. Fayette who was chosen captain, Is one of the pluckiest men on the team and much dependence is being put Tn him in the coming onslaught.
 So far the Yellow Jackets have had everything their way and have had no occasion where an individual star has been shown. the team working in such close harmony.
 Vowell. Zac and Paul Walker, Tin kelpaugh, R. Fayette, English and several other men have made good showings this year and will be used In Friday afternoons game.
 Much pep is being injected Into the student body and two additional cheer leaders elected. This game will mark the first big high school game played this year in the Magic City and the Ensley students Intend turn ing out in a body to root for the Yellow Jackets.

asked by Jumbo Steihm. coach of the
Indiana football team, to come here next
Saturday and act as field Judge at the
Indiana Harvard game.
Gardner is down to handle the Wis

drew as referee for Saturdays game in
order to be one of the world series um-
pires. there was a vacancy Of the Off
ciating staff. If Gardner consents.
Bill Crowell of Swarthmore. who was to
be field judge Saturday, will referee in
stead.
Harvard shared the stadium this af-
ternoon with Indiana, both teams spend
ing two hours in secret practice. Jumbo
Steihm's squad of twenty-five Hoosiers
did fundamental work largely, kicking
and a long signal drill. He has a rangy
batch OF linesmen and some likely look
ing backs. Frank Hanny. an end, and
Capt. John Kyle are both 200 Founders.
During short scrimmage with the

Not Probable That Lineup
Will Be Changed Before To-
mOrrOw's Game.

Buck O'Neill let his football squad
down easy on South Field yesterday
afternoon and nary a sign of scrim-
mage could be observed behind the closed
gates. The Columbia coach considered
the practice game with Fordham on
Wednesday as putting finishing touch
on the hard work for the week, and only
light practice will be INDUCED in again
this afternoon. The lineup remained
practically the same as that which
started against the Maroon on Wednes-
day, and it now seems that 1t will not
be changed before the game with Wes-
leyan on Saturday.
Anderson again started the light for
nation drill at quarterback and seems
sure to call signals against the Connecti-
cut collegians. His punting will consid-
erably strengthen the Blue and White in
this particular, and real kicking is one
of the things the eleven needs more than
any other.

the varsity last Tuesday and was the
main figure in the Blue and White
offence against the Maroon, was at right

Pulleyn reappeared at left end. with
Forsyth again holding down the right
wing. Glib, the big tackle who was pro-
NOTED to the varsity in the encounter
against Du Noes eleven, kept his place
at right tackle, and Modareli again
played right guard. Fargo, Walder and
Meyer are the only three who have held
their positions in the line since the Am.
