PAINTERS MEET MERCER ELEVEN
 HERE ON FRIDAY
Birmingham Southern Grid derS Made Great Showing
 in Game With AggieS
By HORACE RENEGAR

Returning to the Magic City last night after being defeated by the strong Mississippi A. & M. eleven, IA to O, the Birmingham Southern Pan thers will again take to Munger bowl today 10 prepare for the Mer- cer university game, which is sehed- uled to take place Friday at Rick wood.
 Coach Charlie Brown. with hls able assistant Coach Jenks Gillem, Is ex- pected to rush the Hilltoppers at terrific pace this week in polishing over any rough places that might have appeared In the Maroon battle. Several minor injuries were received in the Starkville game, the worst pobably being the injured collar bone received by the little Sunshine Slope star. Greek Griffin.
 Griffin's absence from the lineup in the major part of the Aggie battle was severely felt and the announce ment that he would be unable to get into the harness Friday would tend to lower Birmingham-So Southern stock considerably.
 Weeks, big tackle, also suffered a badly hurt hand, which may cause considerable trouble. The Cat men tors will run the squad through all of their paces this week, however. in attempting to get the Joints back to normalcy.
 Miller Did We'll
 Captain Miller's generalship in the Aggie battle was par excellent, all though the fact was clearly brought to light that punter must be in the lineup. Lanky Jim Rogers has been booting the ball with all of his old time vim during tho last few days, but was unable to make the trip to Starlxville. His presence. however, Is expected to add considerable strength to both offense and defense, mainly by his bunting ability, in the Mercer game.
 The Mercer aggregation. under the coaching of Josh Cody and Strupper, is coming to the city with an un- usually strong array of football tal- ent next Friday and the .Panthers are certain to be forced to the limit. Fri days game is expected to be the mi- nor college classic of the season with both teams showing strong offen- sively and defensiyely.

Varsity Track Team Is
Entered in Pitt Meet

MoRGANTowN. March Alt
became known here today that the
West Virginia University track
team had been entered in the Uni.
versity OF Pittsburgh ~intercolle.
giate track and fold meet to DO
held at Schenley Oval, Pittsburgh,
on May 20. The news was a great
surprise to Mountaineer track Eaus
who had expected 10 see Coach
Cartmell's outfit in action on the
athletic field here on that date,
because Of the fact that a dual
meet with some close rival was
planned to be held in connection
with the West Virginia high school
track and field championships. It
being the opinion Of local officials
that a collegiate meet would be
some incentive to the high school
athletes who will gather here on
May 20 they made every effort to
arrange a dual meet on that date.
They were unsuccessful. however,
because practically every tri-state
team Is entered In the Pitt meet
while other important rivals had
already closed the date.
Another announcement Of i'm
portance was that concerning the
visit OF the University Of Pitts
burgh track team to this city on
June 3. 1t seems that there was
q conflict in the two schedules and
for this reason the contest had
not been announced before. It
will be the first visit Of a Pitt
track and field squad to Morgan
town for a number Of years and
the meet will undoubtedly be one
