Panther Scrubs
 Lose to Acipco

The Birmingham-Sout college scrubs met defeat Tuesday afternoon at the hands of their time-honored rivals from Acipco. to 3, after hard fought game at Munger field. Coach Bob Rowe's team of scrubs fought hard from the outset, but lost in the opening minutes when they were unable to stem the Crimson tide. when the Acipco eleven marched down the field from the kickoff for a touchdown.
 Country" Fuqua played promi- nent part in the scrub Panthers downfall, for it was Fuqua that did most of the ground gaining, and he scored the touchdown that won the game. Alongside of Fuqua. Lefty" Golson, scrub back, shared honors. for Golson again brought his left boot into use and kicked the oval 30 yards for a field goal This boy Col son is really wonder when it comes to drop kicking and if he only had d little more weight would make the Partners a valuable varsity man.
 The other stars of the game from a Panther scrub standpoint were Englebert, Farr and Anderson. En- glebert did good work on end and completed two passes and intercepted one. He almost got away for touch down following one of the passes he completed.
 The scrub team has fought very hard this season and much credit is due the work of Coach Rowe and Man ager Howard Stansell as well as Cap tain Julian Anderson.

1 am not familiar with the work or the great Venetian traveller but by some curious quirk a memory of schooldays came hazily back to me. In imagination I could see an old professor of mine intoning:
 Marco Polo lived in the last half of the thirteenth century and the first of the fourteenth"
 That Is about all I know of Marco Polo so I cannot vouch for Chinese golf. The first record I have ever personally seen of the royal and an- cient game was in 1457 That year the British Parliament iegislated against 1t apparently because it in terfered with work.
 King Played Golf
 We are told that in 1903 the King was playing extensively. The King of England at that time was Henry VII, and the King of Scotlandwas James ". I think 1t must have been the Scottish Jamie rather than English Henry who went In for ex- tensive golf for he was an ill-fated Stuart and needed all the consola- tions that golf can offer.
 The year 1852 is the date of the first mention of golf In St. Andrews. The Royal Blackheath Golf club, the oldest in the world, was founded in 1908. I saw the course when I was in England 1t Is flat and rather monot- onous and must have been easy to care for all these years.
 Scotland soon got busy and in 17s5, 1744 and 1754, respectively, the fam ous golfing societies, the Edinburgh Burgess Golfing society. the Honor a n of T St- and the Royal and Ancient Golf club, St. Andrews. The first royal and am cient was held in 1754 and the busi- ness of the workers in gold and silver must have increased at once.
 In 1884 the royal and ancient King, William. " was first competed for. All this time the feathers stuffed ball was being used, but in 1S4S the gutty ball came in. Soon we begin to see the names of the famous professions als, among whom are Allan Robert

son, the two Dunns, Tom Morris, ST.. and Jr. Willie Park, Bob Ferguson and others. I remember visiting the old cemetery at St. Andrews and read ing the epitaphs, writ Tn golfing lan- guage, of these old heroes. Stories of their wonderful performance upon the links still pass from mouth to mouth In bonnie Scotland.
 British Championship
 In 1880 the first Bittish open cham pionship was played and Willie Park. ST., won 1t. In 1883 King Edward VII, then Prince of Wales. was elected captain of the Royal and An cient club; great honor for the King!
 Up to and including 1867, Tom Nor ris, ST., had won the open champion ship four times. and in 1870 1t Is noted that Tom Morris. Jr., had won the open championship three times in succession, and become the perma- nent possessor of the championship belt.
 On November {, 1873, Montreal Golf club was established. said to be the first golf club on the continent of America. The files of the old news papers at Charleston, S. C., show, however, that golf was played near there many years before.
 In 1886 the British amateur cham pionship was established and in 1888 the St. Andrews Golf club was formed at Yonkers. N. Y.
 In 1890, the year in which I was born, John Ball won both the open and amateur championship. and 1t was 26 years later before the feat was duplicated in America.
 In 1892 MT. Edward Blackwell drove 366 yards with an old gutta ball By this time golf history was multiplying rapidly, and the names of Tait, Hilton and others now fam ous began to appear.
 It was, as every golfer knows. rev. olutionary affecting links, clubs ana style of play.

Alabama Anxious to Win Game With
 Tulane Greenies
By BILLIE FREEMAN

After resting up Friday and taking light workout Saturday the Grim sons are getting down to work Mon day for their last week of football training in preparation for the final game of the season with Tulane Sat urday. The Tulane team is new factor on the Crimson schedule and the clash with them in New Orleans is naturally looked forward to with great interest by the Alabama fans.
 The week has started with cold, snappy weather and the squad will be able to get in a few good days of practice before leaving for New or leans Thursday.
 The Crimsons have had discourag- ing obstacles to face this fall, but have held up well under the condi- tions. They are now looking forward to next year with the expectation of seeing the Crimson Tide one of the strongest elevens on a southern grid iron. It Is expected that when Coach Scott announces the schedule for next fall it will contain some pleasant sur prises and that the schedule will be one of the hardest an Alabama team has faced in some time. Practically all of this years team will return next year. The team started out with a big majority of new and inexperi- enced men, but they have improved steadily throughout the season. their development being really remarkable, and by the time the first game of the schedule arrives next season they should be ready for any corners.
 But the thing of most imm ediate interest Is Saturdays battle with Tulane. The Crimsons were dis app9inted in not being able to carry off the victory from the Maroons Thanks giving. although they evened the score and played one of their best games of the season, and their object now is to make the final game big Crimson victory.

More Than President
 It has been pointed out that Babe, at $S5,000 a year, would be getting $10,0O0 in excess of what the President of the United States drags down for one season in presidenting. That would seem to make his salary demands a bit axorbitant, unless one digs more thoroughly into details. While Babe would be pocketing s10,000 more berries than the chief ex- ecutive, he could no doubt offer some convincing arguments in this wise.
 Its true I get more actual money than the President. What of that? I am worth more. And, besides, to-wit:
 q will get ten thousand more dollars per year, but I have to pay house rent. while the gov ernment furnishes a parsonage, the White House, for the Presi- dent, and he don't have to pay dime rent.
 Also. while I have to kick in with the old mazuma for every meal I eat, and then tip the waiter for serving it, the President is always having his neighbors over the U. s. send him in some veg etables or something. Only last week 15 turkeys were sent in from different parts of the coun- try, and somebody is always bak- ing a big cake and sending to the President. Look what he saves on his eat bill every year. while I must kick, and kick, and kick for every morsel that goes on my table. It's true the fans give me floral offerings every now and then. But who can eat floral of ferings, unless they change 1t to cauliflowers from now on?
 50, you see, that while I get more in actual money, there are lots of things where the chief mops up on, and I don't get no revenue. whatever"
 How Can He Make Itf
 The question naturally arises: How can man of Babe Ruins temperament get by on $S5,000 a year. That's easy. He can apply a budget system, and by trim ming and whiting expenses here and there, live within his income. Hazarding a budget guess, why wouldn't this prove that it is possible for man to live on that stipend.

It would be hard for the average man to make up his mind to live on the niggardly sum, but as the above figures prove, it could be done by stintir.y and skimping here and there.
 An Original Guy
 Thinking up salary demand of 50.000 smackers has been done before by different individuals, but giving separate corporations a chance to donate $5,0O0 each towards making it total sS5,000 is Babes own invention. It is something new, and you gotta give him credit for that. Why, hadn't l thought of that before ?'' movie stars will no doubt say. T can get Famous Players to slip me a hundred thou, and then give the Goldwyns. and vitagraph, and Metro, and Fox, and a number of other producers chance to pay me S5,000 a year. so they can point back in the days to come that they helped pay me when I was in my prime.'.
 You've got to give the Babe credit for being original. Didn't he bunt in the last world series. when the outfield was playing against the fence, and the infield- CTS were way back on the grass looking for home run? He's got to have lots of money. Didn't he spring several thousand dol lars worth of injuries overnight during the world series?
