 Directors in Session


 Chicago, December 1.--Athletic di- rectors of the western conference, after & session today, held joint meeting with faculty representatives tonight to discuss problems confront ing them for the 1923 "big ten" cam paign.
 Y The faculty representatives will meet tomorrow to act on the sugges- tions while the schedule makers are in session to draw up schedules for next year for all sports Except base bah.
 The athletic directors adopted reso- lutions piedging strict enforcement of the amateur rules, and to teach the proper ideals of sportsmanship, fair play, loyalty, co-operation and un- selfishness, and the other qualities which make up for upright and ag- gressive character" The directors also resolved to continue their fight to keep intercollegiate athletics free from gambling.
 Pending the meeting tomorrow of the faculty committed, Maj. John l.. Griffith, commi ssioner of athletics declined to comment on the subjects discussed tonight at the joint session of the directors and faculty repre- sentatives. It was thought, however. that the status of intersectional foot ball games in 1923 will be more clearly defined after tomorrows ses- sion. It was believed that the faculty representatives will decide not to pro hibit interseetional contests, that do not require students to remain away from their classes too long,

Tenner- Barnett Boxing Match and Smiles-Lacey Mat Bouts Head Card \

In keeping with the new policy at the Birmingham Athletic club of bringing to Birmingham only the best boxers In Dixie, and of putting on only a1l-star cards, Tommy Tomp- kins, B. A. c. matchmaker, has an nounced twin feature card for Monday night. Two of Dixie's great est littles fighters will meet in the main boxing event, while undoubted- ly the best pair of amateur middle weight wrestlers in the south are meeting in the main mat event.
 Battling Barnett, husky young featherweight of Atlanta, will meet Lukie Tenner. of Charleston. s. C., in the 10-round boxing event. Tommy Tompltins stated that this is really expected to turn into one of the best matches the B. A. c. has offered in quite while.
 Tom Lacey, of the Y. NJ. c. A., who have met at the local club in sev- eral previous matches, always put ting up thrilling battle, will be pitted against each other for the last time Monday nYgnt. More than a vic tory will be at stake, for B. A. C. officials have secured beautiful loving cup to be awarded the winner of this fight. emblematic of the city championship, and fandom con- siders 1t extremely doubtful if there Is an amateur middleweight in Ala bama who could toss the winner of this struggle.
 Tenner Stopped Meighan
 Lukie Tenner, although, he has never fought in Birmingham, is not stranger here. for his bouts with Dixie,s leading featherweights have been given quite a bit Of prominence in southern boxing circles. Tenner comes here fresh from knock out victory oyer Stanley Meighan, the little scrapper who used to sail into the boys with such viciousness when he was fighting under B. A. c. stan dards.
 Battling Barnett. the Atlantan. is the young chap who has recently won two victories over Lew Silvers, also Gate City scrapper, Silvers is the lad who has proven the greatest Nemesis of Freddie Boorde. former Birmingham ringman. Silvers has beaten Boorde, and local fans know that the chap who can outpoint or wallop the shifty Freddie must be worth something as ringman.
 130-POund Limit
 Tenner and Barnett will meet at the 1S0-pound limit Bath are due to arrive at Birmingham today, and To- cal fans will be allowed to witness their workouts at the B. A. c. this afternoon.

 FOR NINE MONTHS
By Associated Press


 Paris, December 1.--"Battling Sil1i." who won the worlds 1ight-heavy- weight boxing championship from Georges Carpenter, but recently lost 1t and also was denied the privilege of fighting by the ruling of the French boxing federation because of unseemly conduct, may have new license to box after nine months of good behavior"
 This information is contained in a letter sent by the federation to Henry Pate, under secretary of state, for physical culture. The letter was written in consequence of the debate in the Chamber of Deputies Thursday when the Senegalese deputy, Dtange, attempted to have an appropriation for physical education reduced be- cause of the action of the federation in penalizing Stki. Dlange's motion was defeated.

Commodores Come Through Without a Defeat For Second Successive Season
By AsaocIatcd Prers

Atlanta, December 1.-The close of the 1922 football season marked the second successive year in which only three teams came through with no defeats that would mar their claims to the mythical title of champion of the south. Two of those which oc- cupied the position last year. Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt, are among the select three again, but North Caro- lima took the place of Centre, who was defeated by Auburn.
 The Vanderbilt Commodores. how ever. were the only team that won all its games. in addition to defeat ing it's southern rivals, the Nashville team played Q scoreless tie with Michigan and defeated Texas, while North Carolina lost to Yale, and Georgia Tech went down bnfore the Navy and Notre Dame. It also marked the second successive year in which Vanderbilts great eleven hadsnot been defeated.
 Carolina Leading Hcorer In total scores North Carolina. which played ten games, led the three with POO points. while permit ting It's opponents to score 6s. Van derbilt and Georgia Tech played but nine games each and the Commodores rolled up 172 to Is and the Yellow Jackets, 157 to 6s.
 For high scoring honora, even tho triumphant three, however. must bow to one Of the smallest tnstitu- tions in tho land King College of Bristol. Va.,-Tenn,, which in eight contests tallied 49s points to 4S for tits opponents. Most of the teams the I Kaysee' eleven played were from emaller colleges but the record of .snore than 62 points to game against any opponents shows power ful ability to amass touchdowns.
 Two or three more games to be played Saturday, will not effect the standing of the three undefeated elevens, for the Thanksgiving day games marked the close of their season. The climax, too. saw more than one unexpected result for statistics indicated that Auburn had moro power than Georgia Tech and the same figures pointed to Ken lucky downing Tennessee. The Tech Yellow Jackets. however, brought in- to play an aerial attack that the Plainsmen could not solve and cele- brated their twenty-fourth annual contest with Auburn by a IA to 6 victory.
 Tennessee triumphed over Ken lucky. which had previously de- feated Alabama and fin it's other games showed far greater power thansla last year. Vanderbilt and North Carolina. however, came through true to form. for the Commodores downed their ancient rivals. the Sewanee Tigers. 26 to 0 and the Tar Heels trounced Virginia 10 to ', in one of the most brilliant battles of the day

Colonel auack Gets Figures

Colonel Quack Gets Figures
 Rickwood's boss man has al- ready had survey of Redwood field made. and has had experts go over the ground and make a conservative estimate of the seats to be placed there. He has the dope down in black and white. and all that is necessary now is for the college officials. who make the schedules, to get busy. They don't have to worry about stadium. All they must do Is to convince Boss Quack that they mean business in book ing attractions.
 Under the new arrangement the gridiron would runs from the first base boxes of the grand stand down into left field. This would make the grandstand and the third base concrete bleachers excellent places to view a game from. Then, new tiers of seats would be builded from the end of the third base bleachers all the way into left field.
 Starting from near the wood en bleachers in right field, rows x of elevated seats would be con- structed, running parallel with the gridiron and continuing down into center field.
 Local Club Generous
 Some of the brethren have taken the attitude that the Bir- mingham baseball club was pret- ty greedy in it's demands from a percentage standpoint. yet sig- ures In the baseball office show that the local club has never made as much as $5,000 out of a season, and that this Is really far from making per cent in- vestment on the money involved.
 The baseball management has been charging only 15 per 'ent. In Pittsburg Barney Dreyfuss gets 171a per cent. In the Wash ington American league park the figures run higher, and in other places 20 per cent is charged. Boss Smith hasn't been able to get figures on the revenue charged by the Polo Grounds management. but says he be- lieves it will be in excess of 20 per cent.
 The Birmingham Baseball asso- citation has never gone into the football business from a money making standpoint. The revenue derived is small. and the wear and tear on the park fixtures Is enormous. It's been more of an T.. else, and. of course, 1t has helped run up the revenue the park earns in a year. but taken by it. selfNit would be a mere bit of lagniappe.
 Civic Clubs should Get Busy
 With assurances from Colonel Quack that he will give 'em a park that will take care of twenty-two thousand souls. the civic clubs of the town should get busy and work the wires for two great attractions for next season. Birmingham should have four big games during the course of football season, and If the clubs spread the good news to the college campuses that Bir- mingham really means business. these star attractions should be arranged.
 It's been noised around that Auburn and Centre would not meet next year. One of the main reasons why this game is not looked on with favor at Auburn. it is said, is that the Auburn au- thorities figure that with Bo McMillin gone. Red Roberts gone,

 Georgia and Alabamn Would Draw
 If plans really go through Georgia and Alabama will fight their annual battle in Birming- ham next Thanksgiving. The machinery Is already at work to bring this game here. It is un- derstood that the Crimscners and the Red and Hackers drew som ething like six thousand to their game in Cramton Bowl. This, Is not enough. If the affair is arranged for Birmingham for next Thanksgiving to take the place of the Aggie-Alabama bat tie, the chances are that most of the 1S,000 seats Boss Quack is contemplating building, would be taken.
 The idea is to keep hammering. Birmingham Is really football town. The best gridiron town in the south, with the exception of Atlanta, and better than At lana would be If Atlanta was not college town, supporting to man Georgia Tech. Year in and year out the old Magic City will turn out better crowds than are to be found anywhere else meath DiNie's sun. And, now with the seating capacity to rely on, efforts should be made to bring Georgia, Centre and possibly Ga-Tech here during the course of a season.
