Wertheimer Sails

PARIS, Nov. 30.--(By Associated Press.)-Pierre Werthheimer, owner of Epinard, Frances champion three- year old-race horse, will leave for New York tomorrow on board the steamer Paris. On his arrival in the United States he will be ready to consider any responsible proposition to send Epinard to the United Sattes next spring to meet America's best in match race over any distance up to one mile and a half.
 M. Wertheimer would prefer that the race, be held in France. The ne- gotiations which have been in prog ress since November 3. for an ,interna tional cup on the Longchamps course for May of next year have been held up by the Vincennes Race Track society, to which this date originally was allotted, refusing to yield.
 To the Associated Press this eve ming M. Wertheimer said he was anxious to prove that he owned the best horse in the world, and that he was ready to ship Epinard across the Atlantic for race or a series of match races. Epinard was pre- pared to meet an American sprinter over six-furlong route, then in 10 days race another horse for a mile, and then at similar intervals arrange contests at a mile and a quarter and a mile and a half.
 If responsible racing organiza- tions In America are willing to or ganize such a series Of races" said M. Wertheimer. T am ready for Epinard to meet any four horses they may select"

Schedule Makers Get Busy On Menu For 1924
 Season

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 30- Football ended for the 1923-1924 scholastic year. Alabama college schedule makers are already turning to the card for next fall.
 At the University of Alabama, it is considered certain that the Uni versity of Kentucky will be back for the annual home-c oming game at Armistice time; Centre will again be met in Birmingham on November 15 i; Sewanee will again be met in Bir- mingham; Georgia will be played in the season wind-up, probably at Bir- mingham or Montgomery; Florida will be left off the 1924 schedule, it is said Georgia Tech and Alabama will again play in Atlanta. With these five games and probably an intersectional game, the schedule will be completed with probably two campus games against easier op- ponents which have been arranged for the seasons opening.
 Auburn's schedule, according to friends Of the institution, will again be one of a strenuous nature. Army will again be played at West Point, N. T., they say. Georgia will be met at Columbus, while Tulane will prob
  again. Georgia Tech will be met in the seasons Turkey Day climax at Atlanta and Vanderbilt is again toap- pear on the card following a four year lay off, it is announced. These five games plus the probability of a return contest between the Birming- ham Southern Partners and Auburn at Montgomery, and Clemson and Fort Benning or Howard on the campus will round out the card, it is be- lieved.
 Iirmingham-South card is without ray of light yet from early announcements, but one or two changes are said to be probable. How ard, Mercer, Chattanooga and Missis- sippi, are said to be practically cer- tain, with the Howard game insured for the season wind-up,
 Towards card is expected to con- tain a number of the same teams as Birmingham Southern. The Baptists are expected to meet Chattanooga, Millsaps, Mississippi on their card with the Birmingham game as a finishing attraction.
 Spring Hill so far has made no an- nouncement of the games expected to be scheduled, although Millsaps, Fort Benning, Marion and Union will be considered for the card, it is said.

GAME WILL CLOSE CAREER @OF MANY HI SCHOOL STARS

lett. left tackle: Lex Fullbright, halt back, Walter Gravles, fullback; ; Chester Hoster. quarterback; DCncan MeArthur, halfback; and Bostock, tackle.
 Those who will he putting in their last game of football for the C and White are as follows: Captain William Bancroft, quarterback; ; Francis Levvy. left halfback; Knight. center; Wick English, tackle; James Cawthorn, guard, and Clyde
 Maxwell, end.
 Captain Harry Holder has been one of the most faithful and best all- around athletes that his school has turned out for many years. This is the third year that he has been on the football team. The first two years he played end and was hare man for his opponents to get around very few of them ever being able to get around him at all This year he has been in the backtield, either at half or at quarter, and has been do- ing well at either place the coaches have used him. He is the only wearer of the old English c, an award that was given to Central High men who made their letter Ill the fcur major sports,, football, bas- ketball, track and baseball. He won this letter during the year 1921-22
 
 trophy for being the best all-around athlete of his school this trophy be- ing given to the man who ranks the highest in q grading where scholar ship, sportsmanship lthe spirit oi leadership, and proper conduct m school are all counted.
 Captain William Bancroft has played on every team that Woodlawn High school has turned out except the track team of 1922, and has been one of the>stars on each one of them. Every follower of high school foot ball and basketball and of amateur baseball in the Magic City know anu tdmire the stumpy little WoodlaWh quarterback and expect to see nm dc honor to Birmin gham on some col lege or professional team or mayb@ both before many seasons haNe passed
 James Cawthorn, who won the Jaffe trophy at WoodlaWn High last year, and who holds an enYiable rep utation among his fellow students for his ability in all forms of sport as well as for his gentlemanly con- duet and fine spirit on all occasions has been one of the leaders among the athletes of his school and will be sadly missed when he leaves Wood- lawn High.
 Francis Levvy. who played with Central High before WoodlaWn hls-- tory began and who is picked by many as the best high school hali back in this state, although not quite so versatile an athlete as some ot those who will be playing their last game, will probably stand out lit tie more prominently in football and track athletics than his more versa tile colleagues and opponents. Ss
 Along with these stars there will fptn ba who will be with their schools an other season and perhaps two. the most important one for Woodlawn being Tom Jones, while Sanford, the only two-year man that Phillips has to return next year. will probably be the leader among those of the less experienced who do battle at Rick this afternoon when the champion ship of the Magic City will be de- cfded.

S0.-1 (special.)-On a muddy field the Shelby County Wildcats fought their way to a 27-to-o victory over thq strong team of the Sylacauga Aggies' The game was hard fought, but only straight football was used on account of the heavy field and wet ball. Shel- by's line was impregnable and each man fought well with Captain Flnley at end and Stinson at tackle stand ing out. In the backfield Looney, Peers and Longshore continued their stellar work. The Aggies fullback was their outstanding player and his long, we'll placed punts helped to hold the score down.
 The Shelby Wildcats have finisthed their most successful season, having defeated some of the strongest high school teams in the state, and no team encountered has been able to cross their goal line.

Murchison Is Injured


 NEW YORK, Nov. 90.-Loren Mur- chison, National A. A. U. sprint champion at 100 and 220 yards. and Americas greatest star sprinter for the 1924 Olympic in Paris, has been seriously injured in an automobile accident. He came here Friday to be treated by specialists for frac- ture or dislocation of one vertebra and for torn fragments in his back.
 The mishap occurred in Philadel- phia last Monday. Murchison said. He did not sem very eager to give the details.
 If Murchison is so badly hurt that he will not be able to do his best in the Paris games. America will have lost two stars from the Olympic team, as Chralie Paddock of Califor- mia was declared ineligible last spring for failing to tip his hat to an A. A. U. official.

SIKI RETURNS OFF. 4 WILD ESCAPADE

NEW YORK, Nov S0.-Battling Siki, penitent and all but broke, has re- turned from his first spree in Amer fca, during which he borrowed $1,000 spending money from his manager, Robert Moe Levi, played Coal Oil Johnny to a crowd of Harlem ad- mirers and escaped to the wilds of New Jersey.
 The Battler returned to the fold two nights ago but Robert Moe kept him in the house until today, when the singular one promised to be gooG and not to give away more than dime. He was throwing $50 bills in q sea of clutching black hands when Robert Moe found him in Harlem the other night.
 And think of it." said Robert Moe today, when he comes back from that foolish runaway he has only $3.57 in his pockets. And a whole thousand I give him. He said he thought they were German marks, but I have ed ucated him."

The theater or auditorium of the
near future will be fitted up with
electric devices by which assemblies
may see, hear, and participate in
affairs thousands of miles away
just as naturally as they are now
equipped with heating, lighting,
and ventilating systems, says DR..
Frank B. Jewett, vice president of
the Western Electric company, and
president of the American Insti-
tute of Electrical Engineers, writ
ing in the New York Evening Post.
Not only would it be possible
with present equipment for the
president to address the entire po-
pulation Of the United States, as
sembled in towns, with the same
ease with which the chairman of a
town meeting could speak to his
fellow citizens, according to DR..
Jewett, but should there be suffi-
cicnt economic demand, American
inventive genius could soon perfect
devices by which the living image
of the president could be shown to
the people while in the act of de-
livering the speech and simultane
ously with it.
The technical problems of the
latter development are understood,
he said, and the means for ac.
complishing it are known.
Following up the remarks which
he made as president of the insti-
tute recently, when 1000 engineers
in New York. and 500 in Chicago
participates in a joint meeting and
discussed engineering questions as
easily and clearly as though they
had been in tho same auditorium,
DIR. Jewett predicted that the new
mechanism there used for the first
time, would have n profound in
fluencc on the future development
of the race, especially as regards
political and economic machinery.
He pointed to the possibility Of ap-
plying the benefits of direct con
tact Of leaders with their people in
the old town-meeting fashion, to
the greater problems OF our ma.
tional life.
"Through this brand new tool
in the conduct of human affairs
there were two audiences thOus.
and miles apart in direct COM
munication with each other both
for speaking and hearing, said
DIR. Jewett. "Thcre was no physi-
cal reason why there shouldn t
have been forty. All that would
have been necessary to connect an
indefinite number Of audiences IN
tho Same way would be to plug III
tho necessary telephone wires and
connect up voice amplifiers in the
different places of assembly.
"For those who wish only to lis
ten to the discussion and do not
care to speak it is not necessary to
leave their firesidc if they have a
radio receiving set Thousands
heard the speeches at the meeting
this way. A special telephone cir
cult connected with the main line

audiences carried the speakers

over an extremely wide range, but
it's sensitiveness is only about one
thousandth that of the familiar

Vacuum tube amplifiers raise the
feeble output of this transmitter to
usable proportions, either to trans
nit over a telephone line of any
length to control radio broadcast
ing station or to operate loud-speak-
ing sound projectors. So flexible
is the system that the apparatus
may be grouped in a great variety
of ways. In the set up used at the
engineer rs meeting the words were
transmitted to sound projectors
overhead for the benefit of the To-
cal audience; they were transmit
ted by wire to Chicago for the
benefit of engineers there, and
they were broadcast from Station

Can Reproduce Images
"The problem Of permitting au-
diences or individuals actually to
see each other s living images as
they communicate over wire or
by radio is not yet developed as to
detail and mechanics, but the
means for doing it are so well un-
derstood at present that only the
stimulus of a real demand is need
ed to push their development to n
practical conclusion, continued
DR.. Jewctt. 81 have not the slight
est doubt that it will be in opera
tion within the next ten years.
Photographs and pictures have long
been transmitted by wire and might
easily be sent by radio should the
wish arise. The step is short from
