Until the shades of evening were falling over Munger bowl, Coach Charlie Brown and Jenks Gil- lem kept the Birmingham Southern Panthers working yesterday after noon in preparation for the next game on their schedule, dated for Sat day, against the strong Mississippi A. & M. eleven. The game will be played at starkville.
 The Maroons are reported to have an unusually strong combination this year, and the Hilltoppers realize that they must enter the fight in real spirit to even hold the Mississippians to a low score, although nothing, of course. Is not being conceded until made.
 The tackling dummy was brought into use yesterday by the Sunshine Slopers, as they spent quite while in hitting the ground. Ambling forth in different squads. the men were sent through very much the same routine as marked the progress of their preparation for the opening game.

SKI HAS NOT YET
 PROVEN HIMSELF TITULAR CALIBER
By SPARROW M'GANN

Special Correspondent of Tho Age Herald
 Copyright, 1922. by The Age-Herald)
 New York. October 3-Batling siki's defeat of Carpenter brought the heavyweight situation into focus and since the fatal word came from Paris 1t has been the chief object of every fan't attention. Ski has accepted Tex Richards terms to fight any light heavyweight the promoter may select. not later than November 30. The ssnegalese battler is expected to arrive by November 1 to complete arrangements and begin training. if his normal course of preparations for battle can be called training.
 The New York boxing commission, however, immediately narrowed down the choice of opponents which Rick ard may select to oppose the new pugilistic sensation in this city Siki, the commission ruled, must fight Kid Norfolk before he can be matched against Jack Dempsey, Harry Wills or any other American contender.
 Even if 1t were not for the ruling of the commission, Dempsey fight for Ski just yet is out of the ques- ton, Jack Kearns, who, with his customary business instinct, was not not long in getting on the cable after he had heard of Siki's victory and made 1t clear to the negro's man ager that the only way bout of that sort could be, brought about would be for Ski to build himself up reputation.
 Hasn't Earned Chance Yet
 It is perfectly clear to the parti- , sans of Ski that victory over Car pentier, who in tho past six months has been doing pretty near all of his fighting with a tin sword in front of a movie camera. and besides took the Siki fight as a joke has no, earned the Senegalese place in Dempsey's class.
 Not even by beating Carpenter again could he earn sucn distinction But by plasetering Harry Greb and Kid Norfolk, or Tommy Gibbons, or Billy Miske--any two of them-he would soar upon sable wings right up into the particular set. So in all probability this will be SilSi's pro- gram.
 What he would like to do. no doubt, would be to jump into the ring with Dempsey and make enough out of that fight, win or lose. to retire to Timbuctoo and live in bamboo palace the rest of his life, out no
