FATHERS ROUND INTO SHAPE FOR.
 FIRST GRID GAME
Local Eleven to Meet Miss. AggieS In Initial EnCoun-
 ter on October 1
By HORACE nnNEGAR

The Birmingham Southern squad, s5 strong, Is fast rounding into con dition for t1e opening game with Mississippi .-ricultural and Mechan- ical in Star@ville October |. Sun shine slope is just about as busy q place as can be found in the Bir- mingham district every day rom , D. m. until the shadows of evening begin to lengthen. Coach Charlie Brown is working the line into form fast, considering the great amount of green material that he is being forced to use by the loss of several letter men, Baker, Bagley, Candy and Hodges are the four letter men back on the hne
 The Pivot Position
 The pivot position will be a toss up between Bagley and Hall, with both men showing up well in the scrlmmaging. Hall is sure to make somebody hustle to keep him off the line,
 Baker and Ponceler are likely can didates for the wing positions. There is possibility that some of the back field men will be shifted to the line. especially to take care of one of the ends.
 Baker Does Well
 Baker showed up exceptionally well at end in the first day cf scrim- maging, He broke through the line at random.
 Big Boy" Hodges looked better than he ever did in the guard role He seemed to have everything that a star guard needs and then some. He weighs 240 now, and Is in good con dition already.
 Scott appears to be the find of the season among the rats out for the team. Scott halls from Jasper county and is brother of the famous Cab by" Scott, who played at Birming ham, Southern several years ago. Scott weighs around 1S0 and showed up well at tackle In the first day of scrimmaging,
 "Hoss" Candy Out
 Floss" Candy was out yesterday for practice for the first time and appeared to be in fair condition. He may be called on to fill one of the end positions.
 Ellis. Cox and Candy of Ensley High were new men who looked fla yorable in the first scrimma ge.
 Jenks Gillem is working the back field asprants like "all forty" these days. The bunting duties lie between "Frog' Miller, Jim Rogers and Col son. Jim Rogers toe looked excep- tionally good in Tuesdays workout. Greek Griffin looks good this year and will probably hlt one of the halves. Red Richardson may also Le used in the back field instead of on the line. Red seems to have all his old-time spirit back with him. Mabre may also be used in one of the halfback positions. Frog" Mil Ter will undoubtedly hold down the fullback place.
 Capt. Mike Norton will fill the place of field general. Oats, rat. will probably be used as sub-quarter.

LEE ON THE MOON

One of the worlds greatest astron-
omers, Prof William Henry Picker
ing. after many years study. announc-
es there Is life on the moon. Human
life2 He doesn't say But he is pos
tive that the moon has vegetation
which sprouts at dawn, grows with
amazing speed, dies and vanishes
completely within II days.
That b natures way II our sum-
mens lasted only a week, our crops
would sprout and yield harvest in
seven days. Farther north you go
into Canada. the shorter the sum-
mers and the faster plant life grows.
Scientists, speculating whether
there IS life on any heavenly body
except the earth. usually forget to
tell this: The earth is better adapted
for the support of human life than
any other star-in climate, season,
water and air supply and resources.
The earth Is the best place to live,
as far as astronomers know. Don't
envy the man in the moon. Like the
possible men on Mars, he may be
older and more intelligent than earth
men, but he has a harder time to
exist.
