Central Stars to
Be Ready for the
Bessemer Battle

The prospects of Central winning
the Bessemer game seem to be mucn
better than they were a couple of days
ago, as 1t looks like most of Centrafs
stars Will be in the fracas instead Of
on the sidelines wyhen the whistle
blows for the annual Bessemer-Cen-
trail struggle. A couple of days ago
1t was thought that neither Anderson,
Borden or Levy would be able to do
battle against Red Harris Tigers,
but now things look entirely differ
ent.
Tom Anderson. who has been out OF
the game with bad ankle, announces
that the injured Trilby has been inn
proving rapidly In the past week, and
will be in good shape for the Besse-
mer struggle. This causes the Grim
son stock to take big jump, as An
derson is not only one of the best men
in the Central backfield but is also
one of the best backs in the state, He
did not play much in the Walker
county game. and the Meyers outfit
experienced a big slump on the often
sive. With Anderson and his speed
back in the line-up, Central offensive
should assume its normal strength
and give the Tigers something real to
worry about Saturday morning
potts" Levvy.N another man out
with bad leg, will probably be ready
for service again Saturday. This is
Levvys first year on the Central
team, but he has been doing good
work in every game, and If he has
no hard luck, great things are expects
ed of him in the. Bessemer "tie-up."
The announcement that Bob Bow
den, the tall guard, will be back in
the game is greeted with joy by every
one at Central Bowden has been
performing nicely on the Crimson line
this year, and he is being counted on
to make things warm for the Besse-
mer backs Saturday morning.
With the remainder of the team
running in fine shape, the Central
ties are working hard in preparation
for a determined fight to win and re-
move the draw which has existed be-
tween Central and Bessemer for the
past two years

The Panthers of Birmingham
Southern and the Moccasins of the
University of Chattanooga are all set
for their game at Fleetwood this aft
ernoon, which bids fair to be the
minor college classic of the weeks
play. Both teams are entering the
fray in good condition, with Chatta-
nooga having a slight edge over the
Jungle Cats. IL record counts for
anything, as the Painters claim it
does not.
Large Crowd Expected
Indications point TO a large crowd
at lockwood to see the game, pro-
vidlng the weather is anything like
football climate. Tickets have been
on sale for the past few days
around town and large number
have been disposed of.
The "Hilltoppers" of Birmingham
Southern are confident of stopping
the renowned Talman & Co. this aft
ernoon, but are also aware that they
must put out all of their fighting
energy to turn the trick. Other minor
colleges have tried this year and
failed absolutely. but this is not
worrying the Methodist clan In the
least.
Fighting Spirit Up
Coaches Brown apd Gillem have
spent the week in instilling that old
lighting spirit into, their Mountain
Panthers and believe that they have
them stirred to the point where they
must be unleashed and satisfy their
craving desire for Tennessee blood.
The Panther lineup viii be bols-
tered by the return of their captain
and quarter back, Mike Norton,
who has been out of the game with
/ injuries for the past three weeks.
Mike" Will not start the game, 1T is

Tourists Deplore
Act of Vandolis,,

A visiting tourist has called the
Herald's attention to alleged defac-

writing. Many visitors to the city
drive up on the hill to view the
city and valley, and most of them
look the building over before leav-
ing. The vandalistic writing can
hardly fail to come under their
observation. and is a cause Of
embarrassment. -
The tourist who commented on
the matter was visitor Sunday.
He said:

they say they will. let them spend
