Auburn Centre Game Heads List Of Big Games Today
Colonels' Flashy AerialAttack Will Be Opposed by AL most lmpregnable Attack of Plainsmen in Feature
 Battle Today-Gators Show Up We'll

Atlanta, November 1.-The dash Ing attack and continued threat of aerial passes which Centre college has exhibited a portion of this season will be pitted tomorrow against an almost impregnable defense, backed by a steady driving power, when the Kentucky Colonels meet the Auburn Plainsmen in Birmingham.
 It will be an opportunity for the conquerors of Harvard to win an . other game and that from one of the longtime leaders of Dixie gridirons. but for the Plainsmen it will be far more than that. The meeting gives them an opportunity to wipe away the memory of their recent to 0 defeat by Georgia, and, despite the fact that comparative scores make the Colonels the favorites followers ot the game look to see one of the most thrilling clashes of the season.
 The Augurn-Centre contest stands out above a dozen or more good games tomorrow in which the south s big teams meet, and outranks the Ar mil istice Day contests. the most i'm portant of which was the Alabama Florida game at Tuscaloosa and the Virginia Polytechnic institute North Carolina State match at Norfolk.

That Centres eleven which meets Auburn here today. Is in good condition is evident.

ENSLEY JACKETS DEFEAT WILDCATS BY SCORE 25 TO 6
Forward Passes and Open Plays Are Too Much for
 Jefferson County

In game that was closer than the score indicates. the Ensley Yel- low Jackets walloped the Jefferson County eleven by a score of 25 to 6, The game was featured by the open plays that were used by tho Ensley eleven and the obstinate battle which the Wildcats waged all through the game. especially in the last half of the fracas, when they held the Jackets scoreless.
 The Jefferson County boys seemed to be in fine shape. and played great ball most of the game, but they let Ensley get the jump on them in the first half, and there lies the whole tale of the Wildcats defeat
 In the first quarter EnsIey took the ball down the field with a series of passes and open plays These passes and open formations were car- ried out so perfectly by the Ensley aggregation that for a time the Wildcats seemed to be completely dumfounded at the speed of the Jack cts and their frantic efforts to stop the attack seemed almost futile.
 At the end of the first quarter Ensley had 13 points as the result of two touchdowns being made on for- Wdru passes to walker. In the Sec- ond quarter the Jackets continued with their open plays and scored two more touchdowns on end runs by Tinklepaugh. However, the Wild cats seemed to be getting stronger, and 1t was getting much harder for Ensley to make many gains.
 In the second half of the game the Jefferson County team looked like a different team from the one that had offered such weak resistance in the first half of the battle. They were holding the Ensiey boys at every turn. breaking up passes, smearing line plays and doing the Ensiey of fensive up In general. The boys who were largely responsible for this rally of Boyles were Snyder and Barton. who. played great games on the Wildcat line. In the third quar- ter Franklyn blocked an Ensley punt on the 25-yard line and Snyder scooped up the ball and ran for tho

Ship Away to Clubs
 Soon after their arrival in town the athietes shipped away from the crowds. Mike bundled his men up\and took 'em out to the Roebuck club where they They held a light practice out at Roebuck Friday afternoon, but the mann idea in carrying 'em out there was to get away from the crowds and excitement, where the eagle eye of Mike could watch after his men.
 Charlie Moran, boss of the Centre outfit, took his Colonels to the Country club where they were quartered throughout the day, ex- cept for a brief space. when they went over to Munger Bowl on the western end of town to hold little workout.
 Both squads seemed primed for today's battle and unusual opti- mism seemed to pervade the Au- burn. camp. Those Tigers have come to town believing they are just as good as the Centreites. TOday Will tell the tdle dS to whether they have missed their guess or not.
 old Stars Rally to Cause
 Famous old Auburn stars of the past have been down on Drake field helping Mike put on the fin ishing touches. Rad Batson and John Davis, who went down late, accompanied the team back to town Saturday morning. Bill Streit was down at Auburn for greater part of the week., but returned to town ahead of the team.

OLD RIVALS ARE
 MEETING IN PREP
 CLASSIC OF YEAR
Game Will Be Played at Redwood, Beginning at
 10 O'Clock

At 9;30 this morning on Redwood field the footballers from Central High will meet the Bessemer Tigers in their annual clash. which prom ises to rival the Walker County scrap of last Saturday For the past two years the results of the games played between the Crimsons and the Tigers have been ties and this year each is anxious to place the draw in its favor.
 The two teams look about evenly matched in weight and speed, but the Central gang has the advantage Tn experience. Most of the Crimson warriors are serving their second year and some are playing their thiro on the varsity squad. Most of Besse- mer's men are first-year products and do not know quite as much as the Centralites. However, this does not mean that they are not well up on the Fundamentals of football, as Red Harris is some" coach when It comes to developing grid stars.
 Central will go into the game with most of its stars in the line~up, but some of them will play under the handicap of being out of shape on account of injuries. Tom Anderson is slated to start the fracas, but he is in bad shape, due to an injured ankle, which has been holding him back for the past two weeks, and it is not known just how much to expect ot him, but it is safe to say that if he can get around at all he will do it in a nice fashion.
 One man on whom the Crimson packers are counting to do a big bit toward licking the Tigers is Jack Lil? se f,la nj hie QQpnnd year on the Central team and there have been very few fullbacks in the past at Central or any other high school that have been able to perform as well as Lillian.
 On the line Rox and McNeil are the ones on whom the Central rooters are depending to do the bulk of the stopping of the Bessemer backs. There are other good men on the Crimson line, but there are no others with the experience of Rox or Mc- Neil Aside from being experienced McNeil and Rox are demons to stop on both the offensive and defensive and should make things trouble some for the Bessemer backs.
 Dennis and Waller are the ones who should be the big men of the Bessemer team today, as both are fast and shifty, and having had over two years experience are real veterans of the game. On the line Bessemer will depend on Fishback and Johnston with Kirk patrick at end expected to star.
 The progable lineup will be; Central Position Bessemer T Yielding ......... Honeycutt

seemed to favor the boys from Danville. It was reported Fri day afternoon and night that considerable two-to-one money had been placed on Centre to win. In other quarters, where the point systt m is worked 1t was stated many men of chance had been giving Auburn 14 points.
 Charlie Moran Has Changed
 Charlie Moran, who used to hold down an umpiring job in the Southern league. and who later graduated to the ranks of ar- biters in the National league, was shaking hands with old &C., acquaintances Friday. When Charlie was calling 'em in this league. he was recognized as the best arbiter in the circuit. That fact accounted for his grad nation to the majors.
 Success hasn't changed Char lies personality a bit. He's the same old genial fellow. Still. he actually appears to have grown physically since he has been in Birmingham. He's got a neck on him like wrestler now. and considerable more heft in the paunch. Still. the Uncle Charlie of today. looks just as young in years as Umps Charlie of the old days at Redwood field.

 Crowd Record to ToppIe
 It goes without saying that the crowd record for Birmingham football games will be shattered today. Several years ago the Auburn Vanderbilt games were the biggest attractions annually and brought out bigger crowds than any other grid contest. The attendance today will far outstrip attendances at those classic bat ties, however.
 Many have come to town out of curiosity to see Bo McMillin, heralded as the greatest piece of football machinery ever to dec crate gridiron. Others have been drawn here simply because of the enormous interest in the game, in order that they might mix and mingle with the huge crowds. Still others are Auburn supporters. who really believe that the Tiger has chance. They've come along because they never miss a football '4ame in which the Tiger takes pL |. Dan Martin, Bill Streit. $. L. Yerkes, Wm. L. White. and other mem bers of the joint committee in charge of the affair have ar ranged for 10000 spectators to today's struggle. I don't know whether the crowd will measure up that large or not. but it's a safe bet 1t will go into the teens of thousands. The big gest crowd of whites ever assem- bled at Redwood was on an open ing day. when 12,222 paid admis- sions were recorded. On one other occasion-at negro football game 14.000 was given out as the official count.
