Interchurch FiUe
 Noses Out Victory
 Ouer Ensley Quint

The Interchurch delegation nosec out victory over the Ensley High ag- gregation yesterday afternoon at the boys club. The first half of the con test ended, 15 to ', in the Southside boys favor, but the Ensley lads again displayed that latent ability, which has featured their games this season and until the last two minutes of play, the count was 19 to IS in their favor. Then McHenry, the church star, slipped one through the net and won the game. The encounter was thriller from start to finish with great en- thusiasm being displayed bby the sup porters. of which there were quite a few. Talty" O'Connor officiated in the contest and did exceedingly we'll. considering the narrowness of the court.
 The Interchurch boys displayed good passwork and some very good shoot ing was shown by "Cy' Anderson and McHenry. Ware played more of pass ing game and did not attempt many shots. Anderson pulled couple of the Mig Lawley species, looping the basket with mean throw over his head He played a very good game against his heavier opponent and promises well to take Lawley's place at Central if "Nigger' does not re- turn. Howard McHenry, the long, sure shooting forward, plunked in four field goals and two out of three tries for fouls. Ware played a good rum ming game, and at times. was a great help to the guards in staying off the Ensley basketeers The guards for both teams were the best that the writer has seen for their class in the city, and kept their men covered all of the time. The Interchurch guards kept the Ensleyites shooting from the middle of the court most of the time. and very few Ensley points can be attributed to them
 For the losers Capt. Polly Scokel put up great game, scoring eight points and following the ball with great regularity zack Walker, the diminutive forward, was handicapped by lack of height, but, by shooting a foul and two field goals, he counted up five points. Moody at guard, be- sides putting up a good defensive game, shot two of the field variety. Rosenfield at center accounted for the other two. Candy at guard put up good sticking exhibition and kept his man covered. The long shooting of scokel was the feature of the game. The lineups and summaries follow:
 Interchurch (20)-Ware (2) and Mo Henry 10), forwards; Anderson (S), center; Mills and Harris, guards.
 Ensley G9)-scokel (9), and Walk CT (5). forwards; Rosenfield CD, oen- ter; Moody (D, and Candy, guards.
 Substitutions: Ensley = Peck for Candy, Candy for Peck.
 Fouls tries-McHenry B. Walker 1.

Simpson Cagesters
 to Take Road Trip
 Into South Alabama

The great day in the Simpson basket season is at hand. Friday the Junior Panthers leave for the biggest trip that they will take this year. They are to invade the southern part of the state in quest of scalps of some of the teams that hold forth in the southland. Coach George Reynolds will go with the team, and he is expected to pilot a winning aggregation into the land where the snow fails to fall.
 Those taking the trip are not yet de- cided on, but they will include Engle- bert, Senn, Self, Wheeler, Newton, Lee, Tanner and probably one more.
 The trip is to take in some of the best quintets in the state and the basket boys on the hill realize that they are out on no picnic, inasmuch as they will have to hook up with such teams as Grcenville, Spring Hill High, and a few other aggregations that have been ac- customed to always giving their oppon- entS fits.
 Although the Simpson lads handed the first defeat of the season to St. Der Lard Saturday to the tune of 43 to 33, they realize that they have to keep their noses to the grindstone if they expect to ccme through with wins when they stack up with some of the fast southern ag- gregationS.
 The trip vii include about eight games, and the team will be on the road about Il days, as the schedule looks now. How ever, Coach Reynolds says that it will look slightly G->ferent when the boys board the rattler for Marbury, which will probably be the first stop on the itin- erary.
 The list of towns which will be visited by the Simpson, clan will include Mar bury, Greenville, Barns school at Mont gomery Spring Hill High at Mobile, Bay Minette, as we'll as Columbianna, who dished out a defeat to the Junior Pan- thers at the "Y' recently.

LEAGUE OUINTETS MEET IN REGULAR
 GAMES TONIGHT
League Leading SIoss Qulnt Meets Panther Reserves.
 Two Other Games

| Tonight the City League Basketball | teams will again hold forth on the
 court of the Central Y. M. c. A. So
 far. every night that these teams have
 played the entertainment has always
 been worth going nice long distance
 to see, and from the way the teams
 are paired off tonight, it is probable
 worth looking at again tonight. | Sloss- She ffield will mix it with thefr
 apparently weaker City league 5reth- ren, the Birmingham Southern Re- serves, and according to gentle whis~ perings around this burg, this game I is going to be a real genuine fracas.
 The Sloss bunch of dribblers has not l tasted of defeat so far this season and,
 according to the team itself, they are going to do their best to keep their record clear tonight.
 Westfield, tho team that demon strated it's ability by beating the Stockham "Y" last week, is going to run into the Central tonight. If Messrs. Hillburn, Davis and Tnomas are in good shape tonight. the Vest field boys are certainly going to have to work hard to keep people believing that they still know how to play a good fast game of basketball.
 North Birmingham and Stockham try their wares against each other again tonight, and since these teams are about the most evenly matched in the league, the game ought to be fast one.
 sAll of these games will be good, and those who think that they are going to watch bunch of dubs play are going to be disappointed when they view the action of the teams to- night, for the league teams are now in the best all around condtion that they have have been this year. and are all extremely anxious to amass a bunch of vicotries

WITH THE PANTHER BULLDOGS READY
 FOR FIRST GAME
By MAXWELL ALLEN


 The Howard Bulldogs are winding up Southern game, which comes off tomor- row, and the said Bulldogs are in the best of shape with one exception. Cap tain Afford has been laying off prae> tice for the last three or four days with an injured leg, but he is all right now. At least he is in good enough condition to get in the game tomorrow night, and he ought to make things pretty interesting for Messrs. Griffin and Norton, even if he has got a sore trilby.
 Hurly Knight, the long, rangy guard of the Bulldogs. has been forced to quit the game on account of too much other work on his hands While he has not been starting the fracases for the Bull dogs, he has been a dependable relief man, and his absence will make things hard for Howard if one of the huskies, who hold down the regular guard posi- tions should become petered out before the game is over. Knight is mighty good relief man, and the Bulldogs hate to lose him. w K. Newman is still around the campus, though, and if there comes any need for another guard the How ardites will be safe as long as they have this gentleman.
 Speed Acton, who was one of last years men, can't stand being athleticaIly idle any longer. so he is now out for the team. Acton will not be in good enough condition to play any tomorrow night. but he has d good deal of experi- ence in the cage game, and can play either guard or forward. With Acton on the squad the Howardites are ex- tremey optimistic over the remainder of the season.
 From all appearances the Partners have a stronger team than Howard has. but the Bulldogs are a well balanced bunch of players, and will fight hard. so the Hilltoppers are not going to have any cinch even if they should happen to walk off with the victory when the teams cla shs tomorrow night.

CRIMSON QUINTET
 ROMPS ON TULANE CACESTERS 27 TO g
nv LACK FIREMAN

University, February 8.-(Special.)- The Alabama basketball team tonight defeated the quintet from Tulane by score of 27-23. Such game as was played tonight probably has never been seen at the University before, both teams fighting like demons for 'eyery counter.
 The New Orleans squad started fhe game with rush, and soon had lead over the Crimsons, but Coach Bernier's s little warriors came back in the second period with a determination and zeal that could not be downed. and played their greatest game of their brilliant careers. Playing with lightning speed they overwhelmed the Tulane lead, and by the end of the game had the score chalked up four points to their favor
 In spite of a downpouring rain, the University gymnasium was packed to it's limit, and the enthusiasm became so great that at times it twas impossi- ble to hear the referees whistle.
 The guarding of Cyrne for Alabama was little short of marvellous, and Hudson's floor work was of the very best type. Bickley, at center, also played a wonderful game, while Ken- nedy and McGauley efen outstripped their former records for swiftness. Every man on the team played splen- didly and fought hard and well. For Tulan, Landtrip was the outstanding star. He shot many goals from diff cult angles, and made seven free throws out of eight trials.
 The whole team played a speedy and remarkable game. Summary and inc ups follow:
 Alabama. Position. Tulane. McGauley (13) ...L. F. u. Martin (4 Kennedy (8) ...R. F. .Landtrip G3) Bickley (4) e. .Wachenheim (4) Hudson CD ......L. G. ......... Gill Leake ...........R. G. ..... .Dahlman

Action of the Labor Board

Railroad officials in New York yes
terday, while expressing disappoint-
ment over the refusal of the Railroad
Labor Board to abrogate Immediately
the national agreements, as requested
by the executives, said that this action
was not SO serious as it might appear.
These officials said the question of
wages was not directly involved in the
matter of national agreements, and that
the carriers must in the near future
take up with the Labor Board the prob
lem of cutting the pay of workers.
The decision of the board leaves this
phase of the controversy between the
executives and the employees as it was
prior to January /. On that date, and
after the railroads had presented elab-
crate evidence intended to show the
oppressive character of the national
agreements, a motion was made for
their immediate abrogation.
