Four Big Meetings Are On Schedule For This w eek; Deals Expected

dent Baker said, expects to buy sew eral players, while the Pirates, Reds and Chicago Cubs also are in the market for new talent to bolster dp their squads. President Veeck of the Cubs said he had no men to trade but that he was eager to acquire at least three new players.
 The rumored deal between the Yankees and Detroit, in which Boy Veach and Howard Emke would come to New York in exchange for Johnny Mitchell and young pitcher, un- named with pernaps a cash turn over, may materialize when Ty Cobb arrives tomorrow. At least. this was the belief of Miller Huggins, the Yankee leader
 While there is dissa satisfaction in the majors over the manner in which the optional draft is working, witnesses by the larger minors for star play CTS. all of the meetings here are ex- pected to be harmonious.
 Peace Expected
 The clashes between the triple al- liance of the Yankees, White SoX and Red Sox and. Ban Johnson and his loyal five" which kept the Ameri can league meetings in a turmoil during the last two winters, are not expected to be resumed. Judge Lam dis was given credit by baseball leaders for the present tranquility.
 Several changes in It's circuit may be considered by the National league. Montreal is making an effort to re- enter, as is Providence. and promo ters representing syndicates in both cities are here for that purpose. They are seeking the franchise now held by Jersey City The league prob ably will do little more than pom der over the suggestion by Judge Landis that the great wall built around minor league players of Class A be removed, as sentiment in the league against the draft remains strong.
 Only routine matters are scheduled at the meeting of National and Amer ican leagues, and one interesting sub ject promised is prices asked by mi- nor leagues for their players.

U. OF A. FIVE HAS
 EASY GAME WITH MONTGOMERY "Y"
CrimSonS Run Rough Shod Over the Fighting Mont
 gomery Quintet

University, December 11.-(Spe- cial.)-The Alabama quintet snatched the cap off the lid of the 1921 bas- ketball season in cyclonic fashion last night, taking the scalp off the Montgomery Y five by score of 50 to 13.
 Alabama scored in the first 30 sec onds of play. and 1t became evident in the next five minutes that Ala bama would experience little trouble in disposng of their opponents, as goal after goal fell through the rings to be recorded against the invaders account
 Alabama exhibited the fastest floor running and the most dazzling Pass work on the offense that has ever been witnessed on the local floor, while the five-man defense of the Crimsons was too dense for the Capital City lads to penetrate. and they were forced to content them selves to tossing at the basket from long range and trust to fate to draw the sphere through.
 First Halt
 Alabama rang up 80 points, while their antagonists got only in the
  ltors seemed to develop bit more team work and were able to hold the substitutes, who made up an entire- ly new team, to 20 points and taking ' in, themselves, three of which, however, were of the gratis variety.
 Never has an Alabama team ex- hibited such dazzling speed on the court as they showed last night, the locals having weight combined with speed. which Crimson cage outfits of the past have sadly lacked.
 StabIer Is Star
 Vernon Stabler, all-state center with Greenville last year, was the leading point producer for Alabama, having total of s from the floor and fouls of 2S to his credit when he retired from the arena.
 McGauley was next with 10. all scored from the floor, closely fol- lowed by Carter with and GazzoIo with f.
 In Vernon Stabler and Emmit Mc- Gouley, Alabama has two of the fin est forwards that can be had. while Slim Carter at center is the sweetest looking tip-off artist Ala bama has had in years. Lou Gazzolo at guard flashed a lot of stuff and with the experience that he has had will make Alabama the best guard yet
 For the visitors the shooting of McGauley, brother to Alabama's Mo- was the best. He got two from the court for 4 points. Wilson made 5, two from the floor and one foul pitch. Whole Jones at Center clipped in with two fouls and a two-pointer. Newman, who wore the Crimson White last season, was the best guard the Y bunch had, but their team work was absent, and their in- ability to fathom the defense of the Crimsons spelled defeat in capital letters.
 Lineup: Alabama, tMcGauley, for ward, 10; .Stabler. forward, 23; Car ter. 8; Hudson, guard; Gazzolo. guard, 4.
 Montgomery Y: Wilson. forward, 5; McGauley. forward, 4; Jones, center, 4. Newman, guard.

"Darthmouth" Giues
 Georgians Credit

Athens. Ga. December 11.-tSpe- cial.) .)-In a copy of the Dartmouth" ," official organ of the New Hampshire college. a splendid editorial Is car ried on the Greens southern trip,
 dwelling at length upon appreciation
 of the hospitality afforded the team by University of Georgia, alumni and
 students. We present 1t here for
 glorification of the souths high ideals and growing reputation in grid affairs.
 By means of ono of the most
 spectacular plays in all history the Green team defeated what was said
 to be one of the best teams in the south-the hard fighting University
 of Georgia eleven. A great crowd saw Saturdays game and witnessed an exhibition of football that. re- flected credit on the two teams play ing. Dartmouth won-that after con- fidence in their team had led the Georgians to believe 1t unbeatable.
 Victory is sweet when 1t is won from
 as good and as clean a team as that of Georgia.
 "On athletic performance, then, the Dartmouth invasion of tho south was notable success. But aside from
 winning a gridiron victory the Dart mouth team won itself a place in the affections of those with whom u came in contact. A concrete instance in the statement made by. the mana
 ger of the hotel where the team
 stayed, He said that his hostelry had entertained eleyens from 20 dif-
 ferent institutions and of these he es-
 teemed the Dartmouth contingent highest. The southern alumni are writing of the hospitality and of the pride they felt in the representatives Dartmouth sent Southern newspapers l unite in acclaiming the team for Its ability and it's sportsmanship. Dis 1 tictly the team made fine impress sion on the southerners."
