Auondale Mills Cage Team Will Meet
 Mignon Here

The Avondale Mills cage team of the City league will meet the Mignon five at the Y. NJ C. A on Saturday night. and if the reports concerning the two teams are correct, they should stage quite a game.
 The local team is one of the strongest in the City league this year, and they should be able to stack up well against anything that the Mignon boys should bring to Bir- mingham with them. Dobyn Harrel, who plays for the Avondale five, is one of the best forwards that have been seen in the City league so far. He not only shoots well, but he IS also a good guard, and Is an excel lent floor runner. whlteside, who is Harrels running mate at forward, is good himself. and probably bet ter shot than Harrel, but he is not as fast and cannot run the floor as we'll Aside from these two, the local five IS pinning much faith In Campbell and Afford.
 The Mienon five is considered a mighty good team. and has victory to it's credit over the local Mtllers by 24 to 19 score. Simpson, who plays center is their mainstay, and accord ing to the boys who faced him there are very few centers who have per formed in Birmingham this year who have had anything on him in all round ability. Remison and Stuart the forwards for the Mignon team are highly touted and should do some good work against the locals.
 The 45-piece Avondale band will furnish music at the game, and with this as an added attraction large number of fans are expected to turn ont for the game.

 BULLDOGS EASILY SNOW UNDER THE NORMAL QUINTET
Jess Lackey Stars on Defense While Shores Makes
 19 Points

By getting the jump on the visitors in the first half of the game, the How ard Bulldogs trounced the Jackson vile State five by score of sf to 6 here last night. Despite the ragged playing by both teams throughout the game, the fracas was good one, as both teams fought hard and showed speed.
 Howard started the game off in lively fashion. and after about three minutes of play 1t was easy to see just which was the best team. The Bulldogs had the visitors outclassed, but they couldn't locate the goal regularly. Shores and Stubbs led the attack iii the first half, and even though both of them missed a good many shots, they managed to do some good work fin the first half
 Lackey held the State Normal five on several occasions by spectacular guarding, which was one of the fea- lures of the game. The normal team fought hard but their guarding was very poor in the first half and the half closed with the score of 14 to 6 iH favor of the Bulldogs.
 The Howard quintet tried to play the second half as they had the first but the guarding was almost superb, and the Bulldog tossers found it so difficult, to get by Vines and Brunner that they were only able to make one field goal in the second half.
 Pat Shores and Toby Stubbs were the offensive stars for the Bulldogs. making all but three of the tallies registered by the local team. Both Stubbs and Shores ran the floor in an excellent fashion.
 Lackey was the bright light for the Bulldogs on the defensive. Howard has not had a guard in long time that could furnish a better exhibi- tion of guarding than the brand that this boy furnished last night.
 Vines was the sole star of the vis- itors and his guarding was the cause of many Howard shots going wild The lineup:

FREDDIE BOORDE
 MEETS STRIBLING
 MONDAY, JAN. g

Freddie Boorde vs. Young Strihling. 10 rounds, match Birmingham fandom has long looked forward to, has at last be- come a reality. It was announced yesterday that Boorde and Strib- ling will fight at the Birmingham Athletic club a week from Mon day night, on January 23.
 Boorde and Stribling have met in four previous bouts, but not at Birming gham, and that seems to be all that matters with local fans. Stribling. is southern feather weight champion. and conqueror of every foeman he has met, and local railbirds have been eagerly awaiting an opportunity to wit ness this boy scrapper in action once more. Stribling fought here once before against Deuette All- red of Bessemer. and his easy knockout victory made those who witnessed the bout gasp.
 Freddie Boorde Is a local fa vorite of lond standing. His bouts in Birmingham have been numerous, and his friends here are numDeTfo DN tue Hullui thot Both Boorde and Stribling are good drawing cards by them selves, but the two on the same card makes the match doubly at tractive to local fans.
 In all their previous meetings Boorde has either gotten a draw or lost the decision to the Ma con scrapper. Freddie has been making Birmingham his head quarters lately. and he states that this time he will make his greatest effort to knock the featherweight crown from the youthful brow of young Strib- ling.
 The Stribling- Boorde bout will be the first that Birmingham has had in several weeks, and a rec ord crowd is expected to be on hand when these two little scrap pers get together.

Plans Are Made for Atlanta Cage
 Tourney

Atlanta, January 14--(Special, )--At meeting of the tournament commit tee of the Atlanta Athletic club final arrangements were made for the in- tercollegiate tournament Unless the committee changes their minds, the tournament at the Auditorium will be a Joint g. I. A. A. and Southern con ference affair. Instead of the proposed joint tournament or the A. A. U. and collegiate teams.
 Al Doonan of the Atsanta Athletic club, W. A. Alexander of Georgia Tech and H. J. Stegeman of the Uni- versity of Georgia, were in attend- ance from teams participating.
