Great Crowd Expected
In that IL is tho first big game of
the season, a record crowd Is ex-
peeted to see the ancient foes fly at
each other. Edmund Armes tells me
that the same seating arrangement
that was used in the Auburn Center

at lockwood field this afternoon,
with special box seats as a sldeline
feature. This will give the Sewanee-
Alabama patrons the best view they
have ever been afforded at this an

Alabama has a long way to go in
evening up the score against the Pur-
pie Tiger. She will seek to make 1t
six victories this afternoon. The
count to date has been only five wins,

plays galore and forward passing
abundant. Birmingham fans will re-
member that it was in this very game
that they saw the Hilltop eleven
spectacularly defeated last Friday by
the Mercer outfit in the last five min
utes of play, completing two passes.
However with much time spent in
breaking up this style of play during
the past week, it is to be hoped that
the Cats will be able to handle the
Tennesseans.
The lineup of the Sunshine Slopers
is considerably muddled today. with
one or two men probably unable to
play and upon whose absence much
might result. Jim Rogers and Bull
Rollo have been both suffering on
the injured list during the past week,
and neither may get in today's game.

mingham- Southern and Chattanooga
