 Crimsons Ready
 Coach Stillwell announced yester- day that his regular lineup will be ready for tomorrows game. Captain Holder will be at one end, with San ford starting at the other, and Craw- ford ready for use at any time. Mills and Bowden, who have not been causing the coach any worry at all this season, will be at the two tackles with Yielding and Streit at the guards. Yielding may start in the backfield, but will more than likely be on the line to start with. Jim Smith will be at center. In the backfield, Chet Hoster, who has been injured, will be ready for quarter back duties tomorrow Hootney New ton and A. c. Young will more than likely draw the halfbaek duties. willie Gravelee will probably start at fullback, unless Streit is pulled back. Lex Fullbright and Joe Travis will be ready for use in the back field, also.
 Coach Bryan of Ensley sends word that his best lineup will be ready for tomorrow's game. The same line that has been doing such good work will start, as follows: Captain Walker and Vines, ends; Lowery and English. tackles; Faircloth and Fayette, guards; Hardy, center.

 The backfield will be in charge of that stellar young field general, Pete Hassler, while Spring will be at his regular post, fullback. Tinkel- paugh will be at one halfback. while Freeman. splendid kicker, will be at the other half. Coach Bryan has 8 bunch of reserves he can use. Mott and Vowell will more than likely see service in the game.
 Central and Ensley are in the height of their rivalry. and, as the winner of tomorrow's game will be the winner of the city championship and remain in the running for the state title, battling is sure to be fierce and bitter till the very end.

Crimson Tide Expects to Open Up Against
 Aggies Here

University, Ala, November 2S.- Special )-"Alabama will play her greatest game of the season on Rick wood field Thursday afternoon" The Crimson players are the authors of the above statement, and no source could be more authentic. The play that beat Pennsylvania and Georgia, accumulated 110 points against Ma rion and walked away with l.. $. U. and Oglethorpe will be in evidence. Alabama has not made an extremely good impression on the Magic City sporting element in recent years. The holiday date presents the Crimson tide of 1922 with an excellent oppor- tunity to strut their stuff"
 In the Alabama lineup Thursday, men who may be placed on ll-south- ern selections if justice is done. loom up prominently. Al Clemens is the last word in southern end play. Shorty" Propst is practically we'll and will show the best center in the section in himself Jack Hovater is one of the greatest tackles that Ala bama has ever developed. His play since his shift to this position stamps him as man of true all-southern ability. Bull" Wesley cannot be eclipsed as guard. These men pre- sent portion of the reason that Ala DaInd s Inln keu Line was the best set of forwards in the south this season.
 .Stumpy' Bartlett is the. most elusive back that I have ever seen on Franklin field" Coach Heisman of Penn, is the author of this statement. "Pooley" Hubert has a drive which pierced the Georgia line like trac- tor in a corn field. Allen McCartee punted 70 yards in the Georgia game and is coming into his own as truly great back. ". c. Baty was regarded as Alabama's best back in Atlanta, and can step with any in all-around backfield play.
 The Maroons are not without for nidable allsouthern men. In Me- Gowan, the Aggies have man who can rate with any in power and abil- ity as d triple threat artist. He starred last year, and if only given consideration would displace some of the more highly touted backfield men in this section Speed Cameron is one of the fastest men in football. Last year he ran 55 yards for a touchdown A. and M. won from l.. s. IT.. and showed something against Drake, joint claimants of the Mis- souri Valley conference title, with the wonderful Nebraska eleven.

PARTHENOlJ REPAIR
WORK CRITICIZED
BY PSYCHOLOGISTS

Athens.-The manner in which

criticism of Psychologists in
Athen. They assert that the min

more care than would be devoted
to the repairing Of a modern build

Archeologists the world over re-
gard this Temple of Pallas, cree
ton of which was begun 40 B. c.,
as deserving of the utmost care.
One expert in archaeology here says
that if the restoration of the Par

world over for the perfection and
delicacy of its architecture, risks
Disagreement
What particularly disturbs the
scientists is the fact that it is pro-
posed to replace the missing blocks
of marble and fallen columns and
architraye by compound of lime
stone and cement, and this in a
country where marble abounds.
The critics say the government
officials should at least consult
with experts in archaeology before
proceeding further with the work
of restoration.

One was the reduction of $1,000 to
500 bill in connection with his
statement that he was paid 5000
for having driven a Chinese, a
white woman and a white man to

The other was his changing the
