FIFTH AVENUE

A EXCLUSIVENESS

& NEW York.-Stealthy, but steady
s44yances by tradesmen, covering y
s1esipd Of moro than 20 years, have
airtpally broken the residential ex-
clQsiveness Of Fifth avenue, known
the world over as the home precinct
Of the Vanderbilts, Carnegies, Har-
rimans, Plants, tricks and other
wealthy families.
One by one mansions which
Housed International personages--I
rave to Fifth avenue much of its
sBltttsr and fame, are surrendering
TO commercial enterprise and the
rich are seeking homes in new lex

t4te men, who have watched with

wiped out Sshe last bit of residential
SSxclusiveness in the avenue.
AE The change In Fifth avenue was
E1enected in the recent purchase Of

near-slums existed before.
Mrs. Vanderbilt, who q few years

nr nnnACn nENEGAn

The Red and Slack of Tuscaloosa High school swept over the Orange and Blue of. Jefferson High school in one of the ttereest games ever played on the field at Boyles Friday afternoon. The Wildcats played a great game of football but as Is often the case in the grid game. they found all of the breaks against them. The final score Of the tangle was IS to o.
 The Wildcats twice carried the ball within five yards of the Tuscaloosa goal line, but both times lost the ball on fumbles. The cat backs ,plowed through Tuscaloosa for more first downs than Tuscaloosa regis tered. but were unable to supply the necessary tuice when yards meant a touchdown.
 Tuscaloosa scores
 Tuscaloosa High scored on Jetfer- son in the first five minutes of play when Self, Wildcat fullback' att tempted to punt out of danger ana made a fluke kick, the ball going back over his head, and Iuscaloosa recovered the ball. w. Wright iull- back, carried 1t over after two Spc- cesSful plunSeS

Several success sive bucks carried the ball to Tus- ca1oosa's 3-yard line. where 1t was lost on downs due to tumble. Up- church was forced to drop behind his own goal line to punt out of danger. Upchurch Stars
 Upchurch was the star of the game from a Tuscaloosa standpoint, and gained always when yards were needed. The Gold and Blacks final touchdown came In the third period when forward pass, Johnson to Upchurch, was completed for 45- yard run.
 Wright also gained consistently for Tuscaloosa and Joyce played a good game at end. Fats" Barton was Jefferson's mainstay in the line Whom yards were needed, several times Barton was called upon to drop back five yards from tackle and carry the ball. He never failed a

TIGERS NOSE OUT JACKETS IN GREAT GRID BATTLE, 9-7|
Blocked Punt Behind the Jackets Line Beats EnSley
 in Redwood Affair

In one of the ciass.est and hardest fCnght high school grid battles ever seen in Birmingham the Bessemer Tigers defeated their ancient rivals by a score of to z. The battle was not only a clean one, but 1t was nara fought and close from the opening ok the first quarter until the last whistle had blown. Both teams used a varied attack, with the Ensley boys trying more pass work than the Tigers. The Bessemer backs de- pended on plays off tackle anu around end for the majority of their gains, and while they tried several passes they resorted to straight toot- ball most of the time.-
 The Ensley attack wag different from the Bessemer style of play. Ensley made good gains through the Eessemer line, and also gained con siderable amount of territory ey skirting the Tiger ends. In the nam, however. the Jackets showed their best attack In the forward pass de- partment, making their only touch- down over this route.
 Game starts Well.
 The, game started off as though It would end in scoreless tie. The backs for both teams were doing some great work, but this was offset by the manner in which both lines made almost impossible tackles and held like stone wall in the critical moments of play.
 After a period and q half of even playing, the Ensley team pulled forward pass for their only tally. They had worked the ball to within about 25 yards of the goal, and then Bassler passed to Tinklepaugh, who nabbed the ball and went over the goal for touchdown. Ensley kicked goal, and the game stood to in favor of the team from Ensley.
 After this neither team was in dan-

semi-Centenni.i Fcrerusner

semi- Centennial Fcrerunner
 Today Is really forerunner of the semi-ccntennial celebration, which opens here Monday. The congested oonoiIion of the hotels proves that I've talked with many out-of-towners from over the state They tell me they were coming for a week of 1t, during Birmingham's birthday party, anyway, SO they just made 1t a couple of days earlier in order to be here for one of the biggest football games of the season.
 College colors~ are not as promiscuous as In the days of old They're here all right, but they don't stand out as prominently. for all the downtown streets or Birmingham are wearing semi centennial decorations, and this In a measure off-sets the college color idea.
 scott's First Real Test
 Today's battle will mark tho real acid test tor the newly com structed Scott machine. In the game played thus far Coach Ken has encounteied little or no oppo' sition, and therefore 1t has been extremely difficult to get line on his real strength.
 The only thing the fans have { to go by Is the showing mace py Alabama and by Sewanee in the Bryson game. The Crimson ran up a huge score against the It, tie school, but the Sewanee team piled up the greater number or points. Comparisons mean little in battles against su h team. but f one Is tG make comparisons here. the Tigers would seem to have the edge by very small margin, and edge not enough 10 count either way, where the breaks of the game, and luck' often decide football battles
 Strangers in Backheid
 In days a-gone, one has always been able to look over the Ala bama backheld, spot B flock or familiar names and pass judg- meut accordingly. This year it's an entirely different narrative. Almost without exception the backfleld men who will do battle against the Purple Tigers this afternoon are unknown Quanu- tiAs-men who the average grio fan Is not familiar with at ai'
 Of course there is Clemmens' who is known, but heretofore he has disported himself Tn the hne. Now Scott has shifted him to the backfield, where 1t Is said ne has been showing much gooa work. Rosenfeld IS said to De another dependable man in the hackfeld. Then there Is Kirby This lad has made quite rep as a broken field runner, but !, seems he Is of rather fragiie architecture, being kept out or . majority of games on accoun. oi injuries. It has even been hih'- ed this man will be unable to ge. in today's pastime against tno Tiger.

 New Plays for Scwanec
 There has been a deal written about trick plays, secrecy and the like this week in regard to the Tiger faction. New plays wilt peat Alabama, according to the reports cminating from tho mountains of Tennessee. How ever. one must take all that with a grain of salt.

 Bill Coughlan IS the man Ala bama must stop. Bill's broken leg turned out to be a myth. and this afternoon he will crank up his dogs and get started down the field. Alabama has been coached to stop him. Whether she can or not remains to be seen.
