By HENRY VANCE

Archie Argue is the champion fish erman of Jefferson county so far az prizes go. Archie has just won the first trophy offered in the Birming- ham Arms and Cycle company's fish ermen's contest which was brought to close the past week. He won S25 rod for his catch of the largest bass of the season. The bass was captured in the Warrior river at Camp Hill, MT. Argue using live min- now for bait. It weighed seven pounds.
 Harry Lescher, the ''Dowagias Wizard,I was runner-up for honors in this division. MT. Lesher landed big bass at Lake Purdy, and was awarded a Shakespeare winding reel.
 For the heaviest string of Dream J. B. Robinson carried off the hon. ors. Competition was very keen in the latter contest, but MT. Robinson and his reaches drew the prize catch or the season from the Cahaba rivers The string of fifteen bream weighed seven pounds and eight ounces.
 Some marvellous near catches were reported by some of the Waltonians, who are thoroughly dependable from a standpoint of veracity, but fate is peculiarly cruel to some fishermen.
 Letters of notification have been sent the fishermen by the Arms com pany management. A large entry list. and marked enthusiasm in the events has led the establishment to make this an annual event among fishermen. Any fisherman is eligf- ble but he is required to make his catch within a radius of 50 miles of The contest has been since March 15

PAINTERS MEET THE MISS. AGGY
 ELEVEN FRIDAY
Panther Coaches Working Greenness Out of Candi- dateS-Starting Players
 Uncertain
By HORACE RENEGAR

Although Coach Charlie Brown has had many gaps to fill in the Panther machine this year caused by the loss "Morg" Greene, Eddie Lewis and Brinskelle, it appears that the places will be we'll filled.
 The Panther prospects are much brighter now than they were one week ago on the line. There are many new men showing up well on the line; although they are green. the coaches are fast working them into form. The lineup for the line in the big game next Friday in Starkville is still deeply shrouded in mystery.
 One thing is certain, however the line of the Partners will be husky lot. for all. of the men are hard and strong.
 Showing Up Well
 The men who are practically cer- tain of line positions are Big" Hodges, Floss" Candy, Baker and "Bo" Bagley. The other line posi- tions will be toss-up.
 "Bo" Bagley will probably be called on to take care of the center position, although Hall, newcomer from Florence, Ala, may alternate with Bagley at the pivot station.
 It Is almost certain that Big" Hodges will fill one of the guard positions, and Hodge presents for midable front with his 240 pounds of hard flesh Floss" Candy will more than likely be used on the other guard.
 The tackle positions are still wide open, although Scott, Norton, Young Candy, Caldwell and Yielding are putting up scrap for the tackle assignments. Caldwell has had quite a bit of football experience and looks good on the line. Scott and McBee are also showing up we'll
 Wing Men In Doubt
 The wing men are still very much in doubt, although Baker is almost sure to play one of the ends. Ponceler is showing up fairly well at the oth- CT, while Ellis is also working hard for one of the ends. Red" leicn- ardson may be shifted from half to one of the ends.
 Other men fighting for a place on the line are McBee, Crews, Alex ander and Whieside.
 The Panther backs appear to ne a speedy outfit, and should give every team they meet lots of trouble.
 The men who will start off in tl.e backfield are still In doubt. as there are several extras who appear of varsity caliber
 Frank Ward, a newcomer to sun Shine Slopes, looks unusually favora- ble at half. Ward had considerable football experience in the army and will more than likely get in part of the game in Starkville.
 Oats, Mabre and Anderson are new men showing up good in the back field. Mabre may get in part of the first game.
 Rogers nt Fullback
 Jim Rogers will more than likely start the game at fullback, with Frog" MiNer and Greek Griffin at the halves. Griffin and Richardson will probably alternate at one of the halves.

SPEEDY BATTLERSI READY FOR SCRAP AT B. A. (. MONDAY
Billy LandiS to Meet Sailor Kennedy In Semi
 Final Bout

"Shlfty" Logan, who will meet Battling" Kelly in a 1O-round bout at the B. A. c. tomorrow night, ar rived in Birmingham Friday night and worked out at the B. A. c. yes terday afternoon. Kelly has been working out at the club all week, and it in good shape for the bout to- morrow night.
 In his workout yesterday, Logan gave the impression that he is in much better shape now than he was when he met Dummy Harrington at the E. A. c. about month ago. Lo gan's wind seemed sound enough, and his speed was fine. Logan exhibited mean left hook that is likely to give Kelly q little trouble.
 Logan Has Speed
 Logan, who possesses one of the queerest styles of battling seen in Birmingham in a long time, is built for his particular method of scrap ping. Logan depends upon speed and shiftiness to win for him, and he has both in abundant quantities. Logan possesses a powerful pair of trunks that bear him around the ring in wonderful fashion.
 The Memphis battler's style of fighting can be compared only to that of the old time savage battlers of French rings. The old-time warriors depended more upon a lusty kick behind the ear to win fight than upon hefty wallops from their mitts. While Logan doesn't use his dogs any. at least to strike with, he leaps and bounds around the ring in ,% tl,. nt tt,-tl. nd fn those ancient French battlers.
 Queer Stuff
 In his fight with Harrington, Lo- gan brought the fans to their feet time and time again by executing some neat little bit of ring trickery that apparently bewildered the To- cal scrapper For a few rounds Bar rington was nonplussed, until he found a method of combating this style of fighting.
 Kelly, who is a speed merchant himself should give the Logan chap merry chase around the ring. Kelly has habit of depending upon foot work himself and the two boys should stage a splendid exhibition or scientific battling.
 Kelly, not at all discouraged by his defeat at the hands of Allen last Monday, has been working in earn est for tomorrow nights fight, and Is really in great shape for the bout
 The winner of Monday nights bout will probably get match with Allen, so the going should be fast and snap py from the start
 Landis Meets Kennedy
 Billy Landis, the chubby scrapper who held Harrington to such close fight a short time ago, will meet Sailor Kennedy in the six-round semi final bout. Landis, while ne appears overweight, is really good scrapper, and should give his husky opponent a decided run for his money
 Landis and Kennedy have been working out all week, and while Lan- dis appears as chubby as ever, he states that his wind Is great, ana that's what counts, he adds.
 Three good preliminary fights VIII be arranged.
 Biscoe Seals will referee both DIE fights tomorrow night.

Tech Backs Plough
 Through Wake Forest

Atlanta, September 24.--Georgia Techs powerful backs crushed through the lighter Wake Forest line and skirted the ends in the opening game of the 1921 football season here today for a AZ to 0 victory.
 The visitors fought hard, but could not stop frequent gains of Is or 20 yards. and once Red" Barron, one of the star backs of last year, dashed around end and lodged his way through broken field for 6V- yard run to touchdown.
 Tech never failed to make it's gains on regular football. but proved woefully weak on the forward pass. Wake Forest threatened once when Tech fumbled on her fouryard line after kickoff but the visitors were flung back helpless Through out the game the Tech line stopped every rush without the secondary de- fense being called upon. Wake For est executed two forward passes, one of them resulting in the visitors only first down. Excessive heat caused the game to be shortened to S1 mir

Lesse Guilford Wins Golf
 Tourney for Amateur Title

st~ Louis. September 24.-Jesse Guilford, Boston. won the national amateur golf championship by de- feating Robert Gardner. Chicago [ up and to go, in the 86th hole final at the st. Louis County club.
 Guilford, after obtaining a gener- ous lead of up in the morning round by shooting 75 while Gardner failed with his butter, was held even during the first holes of the afternoon round; but by scoring a string of un- beatable birdies on the next 1 holes and he became dormie after halving the 29th.
 Such an enormous gallery, esti- mated at upwards of 1000 persons, followed the match this afternoon that the players and referees were all but trampled under foot and the gallery swarmed onto the goth green before Guilford could get a chance to hole his easy putt for an easy victory, s up and $, they halved it in 1, making it up and 6.
 Gardner Was FnvOrite
 Gardner, who won the title in 1909 and 1915, and was runner up to Chick Evans in 1916, was an odds on choice over Guilford. He was not playing his best game part of the way, how ever, and he was Jagged on the greens most of the time. missing up wards of a dozen holeable puttsy, while Guilford who never before got further than the semi finals, at which point he was defeated by Gardner in 1916, played an unbeatable game on the greens and made few errors elsewhere.
 Gardner outdrove the Boston siege gun on holes while Guilford ex- ceeded his opponent from the tee on a like number.
 The Boston player scored the longest drive of the day, getting 320 yards on the 10th hole, where Gard ner was 20 yards behind him. Gard ner had three drives of 300 yards or more, while Guilford had two.
 The driving however, had little to do with the result, although Gard ner lost the 1lth, 24th and 26th through errors from the tee. Neither did the irons bear much on the out come. Putting had most to do with the result, as the Chicagoan initiated Chick Evans game of yesterday by missing short ones with fre-

CoIumbiana Wins
 From Chiffon County

Columbiana, September 24.-(Spe- cial)-The Shelby County High school opened it's grid schedule here today by defeating the Chiffon county team by one-sided score of 55 to 0. The Columbiana team had things its way from the start to the finish of the game. scoring 21 points in the first half and making the remaining 34 in the second half, when the ChiI- ton defense crumbled entirely. Black and Whorton of shelby were the backfield stars of the game, while Emery, Moore and Finkey did the dirty work on the line for the Colum- bians team.

Johnny Wilson's Case

Johnny Wilson's Case
 It would seem that Johnny Wilson. jokes champion of the middies, is not as good a finan cier as he is a Staller and clincher otherwise he would have $35,00O more than he has now. After Johnnys pitiable ex- hibition with Bryan Downey at Jersey City, Labor Day, the New Jersey boxing commission held out the S35,000 Wilson was sup posed to get for the battle. At last accounts they were still holding on to 1t. After all, Johnny might come to realize that it would have been far bet ter from q financial standpoint had he cut loose and risked the title instead of stalling through the go at Jersey City.
 More money will be collected by one family in the coming world series tilt between the Tanks and the Giants than has ever been the case before. If memory serves us right it will be the only time in baseballs history where two brothers cashed in on the big series melon. Bob and Emil MeuseI are the lads who will carry bulky as- sortment of jack to their home in California.
 Another interesting feature of the forthcoming tilt will be a batting duel for home-run hon ors. The champion home-run hitters of the two leagues will fight it out for world series supremacy. Babe Ruth, champion circuit -smasher of the American league and the world, will pit his polling prowess against George Kelly, first base man of the Giants, who has the home-run record for the Ma tional league
