On the kickoff after Penn's last goal Captain Ray Eckmann, playing his final game for the Purple and Gold. received and, breaking straight through the center of the advancing Penn State line, carried the ball to midfield on a long, straight run that brought the spectators to their feet with a roar. The Sundodgers had their blood up and smashed irresist- ibly toward the goal, threee, four and five yards at time. Nearly every play was through the line. Eckmann, who carried the ball re- peatedly. took 1t over from the one yard line for Washingtcn's only touchdown,

 Battle Witnessed by Local People Saturday

his face, and his movements tend to show that after the first blow fol- lowing the gong for the third round, Jack knew he had his man at his mercy. The Frenchman is pounded with body blows in this round, and the crowd realizes that the fourth will end 1t.
 The Knockout Punch
 Battering and hammering with ter rife body blows in the final session. Dempsey finally sends his man to the canvas. One sees Carpenter motion less. then witnesses him writhing in pain as the referee counts. then by an almost super-human effort he rises to standing position and wop- bles forth to receive the inevitable knockout. It's a great picture, com plete in every detail.
 Saturday afternoon Mir. Rudolph stated that while no definite ar engagements had been made for the showing of the film in any certain city, or any certain theatre, that the film was here, and that 1t would ab- solutely be shown in every city in Alabama,
 MT. Rickard owns the film, and has personally supervised the hand ling of the matter" said MT. Rudolph. He took the films into New York, where fine of & thousand dollars was plastered on him. His next of fense was in Illinois where a penalty of $500 was inflicted by a federal judge. Richards representatives have now placed. the film in g1 states of the union, and you may feel safe in telling the fans the pic lures will absolutely be shown in Birmingham and other Alabama towns"

 MT. Cohen. recognized as an au- thority on boxing. has been prone tc beltttle Carpenters punching power and gameness, since the fight. After witnessing the pictures, how ever, he generously admitted he had underestimated the Frenchman's driving power and his gameness to absorb punishment. "Carpentier,s blows in that second round stung more than had been led to believe" said Mir. Cohen, land his gameness under fire as Dempsey landed his crushing body blows and beat him into. submission was as good a dis play of gameness as one would care to see."

Boxing Tournament Friday
 Something away from the beaten path in boxing circles Is to- be offered at the B. A. c. the coming Friday night, when a tournament will be held to de- eide the city amateur champions in the different weights. Win ners in this competition will rep resent Birmingham in the south eastern amateur competition to be staged here.
 Thirty entrants have already been named in the different weights, and quite a huge dish of boxing is to be served. It is thought that the wholesale pro- gram will draw a capacity house to the club.
 Ring Vacation planned
 It is understood the Birming- ham Athletic club plans to ring down the curtain for a while on the professional bouts. It may be that Birmingham has been served too frequently in this line. as the interest has been wearing off and the gate money has dropped considerably in the past few fights. An inability to bring new fighters here who showed the real stuff is partly respon- sible for the decline in interest.
 As matter of fact, fight cards all over Dixie have been attract Ing a smaller number of admis- sions at the gate than formerly The first time Freddie Boorde boxed in Columbus, Ga., he played before a $s.000 house. His last fight, the past Wednesday, put just a little over $500 in the box office. Quite drop from $S.000 to $500.
 Gate money at the club has also shown a material decine, and it is understood the powers that be have decided to give the fans a vacation, which will run into 1922 at least.
 TOmpkins Plans Departure
 Tommy Tompkins, who has been with the club in the capac- fty of matchmaker ever since the game was pobularized here more than year ago, is preparing to pull stakes and make a beeline for his old home in Paterson, N. J. Pm coming back, of course" said Tommy, but I plan to spend several months in the east"
 It is more than likely that fompkins will take Freddie 5oorde east with him, or send for Freddie in about month. It is understood the little scrapper is tied up with Walk Miller on a contract until the first of the year.
 Tompkins has the utmost faith in Boorde and believes Freddie has brilliant future before him in the prize ring. I've seen many of the bows in the east fight" said Tommy. and l know there are a number of pugs up there who are drawing down big purses in the smaller towns as headliners and in New York city as semi-windup boys who can't hold candle to Freddie" Thompkins knows A good many of the promoters per sonally around such towns as Scranton, Utica. Paterson. New ark, Jersey City, Hackensack and the like, and believes he can make great drawing card out of Freddie in the east as a semi wirdup boy, with an ultimate venture in the big ring against

outstanding light in the balckfield for the visitors, and considerably aided his teammate, Bartlett in mak- ing the gains which the latter con tributed during the contest.
 On the line the play of Capt. Al Clemens at one end and the work or Shorty" Cooper were wonderful. Clemens held down a terminal which very few Green baqs managed to get around during the entire contest, and k9pt his post by throwing Green back after Green back for losses. Cooper was tower of strength in the forwards and played brilliant game at the tackle position.
 For Tulane, the work oftLegendre and Benny Brown, together with ''Pinkey" Nagle in the backfield, was best. On the line, Dizzy" Fitts played a consistent game and was at times the only Greeny to success fully down an Alabama player.
 Tulane Scores First
 Tulane scored first in the fourth quarter of play. which was the pe- riod during which all touchdowns were put over the line.
 Alabama had worked the oval to Tulans 5-yard line. when forward pass was grounded behind the goal post on the last down, and the ball went into play on the 20-yard seam After some nice runs by Brown and long 3oyard buck through center by Morris Legendre, Tulane was held on their S5-yard line. Legendre, standingron his own 45-yard line on the last down and with six yards to go for first down, threw perfect SG-yard forward pass into the wait ing arms of "Pinkey" Nagle, who was thrown on Alabama's 2-yard line. After two unsuccessful attempts at the center of the line, Nagle was sent off tackle for the first touch down and Maloney kicked the goal
 Crimsons Come Back
 On receiving the ball from the kickoff after touchdown, Alabama literally waltzed down the field for the tying touchdown of the game. Rosenfeld and Bartlett tore off gain after gain through Tulanes supposed to be mighty line until within 20 yards of the Tulane goal. Bartlett then circled his own right end for the remaining 25 yards and went over for the first touchdown. Blackwood kicked the goal from touchdown. The second touchdown was scored just after Legendre had punted to the previous attack for the first toueh- down The ball was bucked to with in Is yards of Tulane's goal line, and then Bartlett seemed to fade through the Olive and Blue forwards for the winning points of the game. Soon after followed the long for ward pass of Legendre. which was not allowed. and the attempted nfob- ping of Referee Finley.

North Carolina
 Wins HGrd Game
 From Florida

Jacksonville December 3.-The University of North Carolina foot ball warriors today trNmphed over the heavier University of Florida eleven. The final score of II to 10 be- speaks a desperate attempt on tho part of the Floridians in the last half. Adopting an aerial attack in the third period they appeared more on the offensive. made a touchdown and succeeded in rushing the ball to North Carolina's 10-yard line in the third period before they were stopped Despite the warm weather, there were thrills a-plenty for the some 508 fans.
 The Tarheels overcame a disad- advantage In weight of 20 pounds to the man by fleetness of foot, and Captain Lowe served as the pivot from which Il forward passes spread out to well trained machine. Two of these passes gave the Carolinians the victory. It was Florida's burden mostly to hold.
 Floridas first score came after few minutes of play, when Dixon kicked q goal from placement from midfield. The second and final came when Dixon tossed 8 pass to Carl ton for 20yard gain. The work of Lowe and Johnson in Carolina's backfield featured, while Pomeroy bore che brunt of Floridas offensive efforts.
