Panther Nine to
 Face Bulldogs on
 Friday Afternoon
By HORACE RENEGAR

The Birmingham Southern college Panthers resumed work yesterday morning in earnest for their third game of the city intercollegiate se- ries with the Howard college Bull dogs to be played in Munger bowl Friday afternoon.
 The series now stands even, with both hines having copped one game The Partners proved sadly off form in their hitting strength last Wednesday in the game on the Bull dogs field, but they are confident of hitting their stride again Friday.
 The fielding of the Hilltop outfit in the last game was about on par with other games of the season, but Graham was ineffective. "Feedem Oates was just beginning to come out of a sore arm siege,
 Miller May Pitch
 The pitching choice for the Sum shine Slopers for Friday is yet in doubt, as Coach Brown will not make any forecast on the subject IL Is likely, however that Frog Miller may get the call to face the East Lake rivals. Miller has been played on the keystone in most of t0e GdHleS Ol the StdSOI- oHiJ piNNH ing two games. Both of the games that he worked in were added in the won column.
 Coach Brown may give Graham another look-in on the Bulldogs if Graham is feeling fit on the day Of the battle. and Babe is saying these days that he ''rarin ' to get back in the harness.
 The team worked out yesterday morning in much the same order that they have been playing all the season. Griffin will receive slants as usual. while Jack Stuart will flag putout losses on the initial sack
 Miller will handle the keystone, in case he does not draw the pitch ing assignment In that case. Cot ton Caldwell or Ed Howell will handle Creeks peg.
 June" Anderson and Ben Engle- bert will round out the infield. The outfieId will be in the hands of the old reliables. Bob Rowe, Mike Nort- on and Jim Rogers.
 The Partners will probably be op- posed by Dan Gaylord or Louse Walker serving slants for the Bull dogs Both twirlers are going good, and it is to be expected that Coach Marshall will use one of this duo.
