Sophs and "Rats"
 To Meet at Munger
 Monday Afternoon

Grim determination and revenge is expected to mark the battle staged by the lowly Freshmen of Birmingham Southern college to- morrow afternoon in Munger bowl, when they meet the merciless Sopho- mores fin the second game Of the interclass series.
 Whileeno line can be placed on the winner of the game yet, it looks like an even-Stephen proposition previous to the battle, with the rats" hay ing more men, from whom to select a team. although the Sophs have been drilling daily to administer de- feat to the lower classmen.
 The winners of tomorrow's game will meet the Junior team. which de- feated the Seniors last Friday aft ernoon, 26 to 0 ..
 The Rats are counting largely on the backfield work Of Virgil Hawk ins and the line play of Turner Scott to stop the Sophs, while the oppo- nents are looking to Otis Kirby and Hancock In their backfield smash to turn back the Rat defense.
 Red Richardson and Red Farr, var sity men. are coaching the Sophs. while Ham Weeks and Hawkins are directing the Freshmen. Weeks played on the varsity line in all of the games which he was eligible, while Hawkins was ruled ineligible because of the migratory ruling.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-12-10

Robertson, himself veteran of several seasons service in the Texas league, states that Miller. mighty dangerous man in the pinches, and can be expected to clout the pellet around the 300 mark next season.
 Birmingham, during the past week. closed a deal with Wichita Falls, exchanging Silva for Mil Ter. Both players report to their new bosses next spring Robertson's change to the South ern league was in every way g success for the Barons. as Pop was regarded as one of the most reliable backstops in the circuit last year. If Miller comes through as well, Birmingham moguls will be satisfied with their trade.
 Official averages for the 1922 season haven't been published yet, but unofficial figures show Miller was a sturdy maceman for Wichita Falls last year, ham, mering out an average which placed him within the charmed circle of the 300 hitters.
 4 New Outfielder
 Baronial moguls have been quoted as stating that a new out- field will start the season in 1923. Silva has gone, and Mill ! Ter obtained in his place. Wheth- CT the veteran Miller will cover center field territory is proble- nautical. as it is usually custo- mary to have a younger, more active fielder in the midsection. Harry Harper, a terrific clcuter when everything is right, might be retained for right field, but it is probable that Stump Clarke. last years left fielder, will be given utility duties with more consistent hitter in the sun garden.
 In nutshell, JCe Dunn and company intend for Birmingham's outfield next season to be the big gun on the offensive, with defensive strength enough to suit any mans team.
 rccuperating from wounds and bruises. after n strenuous sea- son, those "higher-upr--the fac- uIty and athletic board members will now have their annual frncas or two.

JIMMY KATE GETS RETURN BATTLE AT CLUB ON DEC. 18|
Cincinnati SIugger to Meet Claude Wilson Here Week
 From Monday

Jimmie Katz was the youngster a few short weeks ago when he bat tered, twisted and pounded "Birming hams own favorite," Claude Wilson. after Claude had outfought him in in initial six rounds. Thus Katz earned a draw with the local lad, who has so recently stepped to the front in the ring world. The same Katz will meet Wilson on Monday night, December IS, at the B. A. c.
 Katz won many friends in his ap- pearance here by his clever and ex ceedngly clean way of fighting Claude. Wilson, also. has stacked up friends galore In every fight of his recently begun career. by al- ways handing out the same brand of play.
 Expect Packed House
 With sucha thriller staged in the last meeting Aere, there is little doubt about the house being packed when they exchange blows in their forthcoming match, so reasoned B. A. e. officials in billing the scrap.
 Wilson Is in splendid shape for the bout right now, as his manager, Tommy Tompkins. always keeps him there. His program of preparation will vary only slightly from that which he has already undergone and the night of the fight will find him in ideal form.
 Katz also seems. to be the type of ringman who follows the way of clean living. and will crawl through the ropes ready to give Wilson an other gruellng affair.
 Bishop Bringing Kats
 Katz comes from Cincinnati with Biddy Bishop, nationally known ring figure who believts strongly in his chief bantamweight. Bishop will accompany Katz down to the Magic City.
 Katz was to have met Tim ODowd here last Monday night but O'Dowd's physician kept him out of the ring at the present and the Katk- Wilson struggle was immediately arranged.
 Homer Smiles and Tom Lacey will resume mat relations where they left off with draw several weeks ago and will tussle for the B. A. C..'s silver loving cup that Is being of fered to the winning matman. Both of these boys have always given the fans all the excitement that could possibly be craved in this line and the coming match should top ! oil of those of the past, If that is possible, for cup of recognition Is at stake

Former Central Athlete Plays Great Defensive Game For G. c. M. A., While Reece's Runs Net TouchdoWns

A speedy back rushed and stiff yesterday afternoon, while an az gressive, powerful forward hurled back the opposing forces with al- most Incanny skill and power That's the story of how Gulf Coast Military academy's eleven, prep champions of Mississippi and the gulf coast, de- feated Wills-Taylor institutes "Pur- pie Devils"t yesterday afternoon at Munger Bowl. 12 to O.
 Andy Reece and Spuds Davis are names which will probably remain long in the memory of the Wills Taylor gridders, for it was these two who made victory possible for c. .. NJ. A. It was Reece who sSirted right end on two occasions for long runs and touchdowns, the only scores of the game. It was Spuds Davis who, backin gup the line on the de- fensive stopped rush after rush, and hurled back Huntsville backs time and tirne again when within the very shadow of his teams goal posts. It was Davis great work which enabled c. c. NJ. A. to close out the season yesterday with a record of not having been scored on this season. And spuds Davis IS a Birmingham boy, former Central High school athlete.
 Huntsville Comes Back
 Wills-Taylor, after being outplayed in the first half. came back in the second with the score 12 to against it. and in the face of these odds, staged a comeback. that threatened mo less than half a dozen times to push across touchdown. But ai- ways there was Davis to rush into the gap and nail the runner Jut as II seemed he was about to go over for 5the tally. The game ended With the ball on G. c. M. As two-yard line, for Huntsville with one down to make the goal in. after Davis had thrown a Huntsville back for yard and half loss.
 It was in the first half that G. C.. M. A won the game. Huntsville re- eeived the kick-off, and with Taylor and London carrying the ball on line bucks, marched 60 yards down the field. G..C. M. A. held on It's 1U- yard line, and securing possession of the ball. made one first down through the line. Then Andy Reece came to the foreground, skirting right end for TO yards and a touchdown. Andy stiff two men and sidestepped the safety man to make the touch down. It was a beautiful run, and .Reece's great running ability was ably backed by some wonderful in- sterference. A bad pass from a guard playing center with Davis back pre- .vented the goal being kicked after touchdown.
 G. c. M. A.'x Second Score
 An exchange of punts, with little real gaining from rushes by either side, placed the ball in midfield, in q c NJ As possession. After one first down, Davis dropped back on third down. and from drop kick for nation hurled so-yard pass to Gene Iawley, another Birmingham boy, who made a beautiful catch of the toss.

CIubbers Will Probably Meet Texans Here on Night of
 December 22

Baylor university of Waco, Tex. will probably be the frs opponent of the Birmingham Athletic clubs basketball outfit, which opens it's season on the night of December 22. The Baylor five always comes to the southeastern section with a strong quint, and the locals will have foe on hand worthy of it's mettle.
 Coach Erwin of the B. A. c. has been sending his 1922-23 material through the mill now for almost two weeks, and should have them In fair form for the opening game just be- fore the Christmas holidays.
 Among the stars of former years who have responded to the call again for service are Laughinghouse, Bryan, Shugerman, Thomas and Mandy All of these men have well served the Blue and White of the B. A. c.
 New Men Out
 Among the new men who are showing up well and will probably serve the B. A. c. squad this year are Gene McRoberts, floss Candy of Birmingham Southern, and Othar AL ford of Howard. Sholder, Adkins and others are also performing well on the squad in early season prac- tice
 Hahn, Montgomer and others will probably add considerable strength to the team during the season. as all of these boys have distinguished themselves as veterans of the court.

Local Alumni and Friends Give Gridders Banquet
 at TutWiler

The Gulf Coast Military Academy football team, which defeated the Wills-Taylor Academy of Huntsville, Ala, at Munger bowl yesterday afternoon, 12 to 0, thereby securing 8 good claim to the prep champion ship Of Alabama. Mississippi and Louisiana, was royalty feted at a banquet held at the Tutwller hotel last night. given by the alumni and friends of the Academy in Birming ham.
 The sight of some twenty odd blue clad cadets, football heroes of the day daintly toying with the delici- ous four-course dinner that was served them, after fighting one of the hardest games of their 1922 menu. was a sight to arouse even the dor mant symr athy of a hardened news paper correspondent. Football creates appetites and especially boy appe- tites, when one is forced to toy with food after hard afternoons work and long wait, 1t is difficult task.
 Clark Williams. prominent lawyer of Birmingham. acted as toastmaster and official host of the occasion. He welcomed the Toys to the Magic City in the name of Birmingham. Others speaking were Major Langford, who accompanied the boys to Birmingham from the Academy, and Coach Ged day. whose efforts bore result in the uncrossed goal line that the academy boys have maintained throughout the year and their nice playing at Munger bowl yesterday afternoon.
 H. H. Chichester made a stirring address. A popular call for Mig" Lawley, Birmingham product on the team, was finally answered by short talk from Lawley. Captain Stevenson of the cadets, likewise made short address, as did Captain Joyner. who captains this years football team. MT. Brasfield and Mrs Pearce were the last speakers and to them go a large share of the thanks for the splendid hospitality that was given the Gulf Coast boys in the name of Birmingham.
