The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1922-11-27


II will be the last game of the sea-
son for the majority of the teams.
There are so many feature games
on the schedule that 1t is useless to
try to pick the best. There are one
or two struggles that stand out above
the others. but, with those exceptions,
every game has some point of inter-
est attached that makes It a thriller,
Taking precedence over all the
rest, of course, will be the annual
Auburn Georgia Tech classic, to be
staged in Atlanta Thanksgiving. The
close race for the southern champion
ship, IN which both Auburn and Tech
take major parts, makes their annual
meeting Of vital interest this year.
Neither Tech nor Auburn has been
beaten by a southern opponent, and
both have strong claims to the title.
One or the other must drop by the
wayside Thanksgiving, and Dixie
fandom is watching with interest the
outcome of the Gate city feature.
Aggfes Meet crimsons
For Birmingham. probably the most
interesting game OF the day VIII be
the Alaba ma Mississippi A. & M.
VII dSeAt1 IL Adhe P1tCe at INiCkWOOQ
park Thursday afternoon. The Grim
sons and Aggies have FLASHED at BirL
mingham for the past several sea-
sons, and are now approaching
rivalry second to none. The Crimsons,
in the main. have had fair success
against the Aggies. and will probably
rule favorites in this weeks struggle.
but the Mississippians can be relied
upon to put up their usual scrappy
exhibition.
A game that will probably be in
the spotlight of interest here will be
the Sewanee-Vanberbilt clash at
Nashville. Tigers and Commodores
for years past have FLASHED at the
Tennessee capital. and their rivalry
and bitterness of warface can best
be described as resembling that &c
tween Birmingham's own Bulldogs
and Painters.
Virgfnia's Task
North Carolina, one of the I'M
beaten contenders for tho Dixie title.
Is meeting a worthy foe In Virginia,
Although beaten more than once this
season, the Old Dominion eleven can
be counted upon to throw a scare
into the titular claims OF their Care
lima foes.
