HOWARD CO-EDS PLAY THIS WEEK


 1he Howard co-eds have forgotten their defeats of the season, and this week they will attempt to redeem themselves in two games that prom ise to be the hardest of the season. The first of these games will be with the Alabama co-eds on Friday night. Following on the train of the boys varsity team, the 'Bama girls have an unusually good team this year, and should give the lassies from Howard tough battle.
 The second battle of the week will be with the Birming gham- Southern co-eds. and not very much imagina- tion Is required to get an idea as what this affair will be, as every one knows what always happens when teams from the Howard and Birmingham-South get together. The Howard girls have had quite a few setbacks this year, but they are game bunch, and their followers figure they are bound to gather their share of the basketball laurels before the season Is over

AUBURN DIAMOND FASTENERS AWAIT CALL FOR ACTION
Tiger Nine Loses Veterans, But Youngsters Show
 Some Promise

AUBURN, Ala, Feb. 10-(Special.) As the tarometer's quicksilver starts on its upward trend, announcing the coming of springtime, the sport con- tingent around the Tiger campus has turned it's attention to baseball. While the announcement for the diamond men to fall in' has not yet been made, the ambitious youngsters who rope to hold down a delivering or receiving job are already warming up in preparation for the get together. which will probably come when dry weather again comes to the Tiger campus. As to who w.1l compose the team this spring IS not known at this early date. Slick" Moulton and Sheridan are both letter men who have considerable exoerience on the round. The majority CT the delivery work this spring is expected to fall to return to college after the Christ pitching department will miss the services of "Bedie" Grant, who failed to retur nto college after the Christ mas holidays. Sitz. who had some experience as a slabman, will proba- bly be called on to assist Moulton and Sheridan in the pitching.
 Behind the plate will be found Captain Charley Gibson, who will start his third season behind the plate. Mayo Davis, former Wofford college catcher, will probably serve as Gibson's understudy.
 In the infield will be found Knowles. Griffin and Arnall. In all probabilities transfer from the outer gardens will have to be made to take care of a vacancy on one of the bases. In the field, Creel Jones, Harrison and Trammell will probably be the main stops.

B. 4. (. BLUES REAP REVENGE ON TIGER QUINTET, 42 TO 19
Work of Afford and LaugMn- house Holds Auburn Cage
 Sters at Bay

Coach Ervin's B. A. c. Blues reaped revenge on Auburn at the club court Saturday night, smash ing the Tigers under crushing AZ to 19 defeat. Those Blues were right Saturday night, and, with the Au- burn team not playing just exactly what was basketball, the B. A. c. started off at fast clip and never was halted.
 Perhaps the feature of the game was the roughness. Referee Stiener was a bit too lenient. It must be said for the Blues that they kept their heads throughout the encoun- ter, and although roughed lot by the Auburn team. the Ervinites nev- CT retaliated with any nasty deeds.
 The game was a friendly fight throughout. The two teams had met before, and Saturday night they were wont to joke and jostle each other so that In the heat of the game, it developed into a contest in which the toughest was sought.
 Although the score book gave Nor man Mandy credit for the most points scored, Hungry Floyd's offensive work was the best for the club. He started the scoring off with a pretty one-hand overhead goal from the 15foot line. and from then on rang them in with reckless abandon, show ing in some very pretty arches, to- taling 10 points. Mandy was aided by his accuracy at the foul losses, ringing 20 of the points. Hub Hahn continued his nice exhibition of floor work.
 Strong Defense
 large share of the clubs credit goes to the defensive, where Coach Erwin used Capt. Boiler Afford and Doc Laughinhouse, both of whom are back guards, and it was a hard mat. ter for the Hutsellites to break through this defense.
 Mckinney, the Auburn guard, is due favorable comment for his floor work and defense, as well as tally ing. Fred Hahn, forward, looped some nice long range shots, and Charley Dudley, Auburn's captain, Is accredited for the best floor exhi- bition for the Plainsmen.
 The largest crowd of the season for a basketball game at the cIt turned out Saturday night, and this is any criterion of the drawing power in the future, the club bids fair to have the proper support for the rest of the season. Line-ups:
 B. A. c. (42)-Mandy (20) and Floyd 10), forwards; H. Hahn (6), center; Afford and Laughinhouse, guards.
 Auburn Gs)-Dudley (2) and F. Hahn (D, forwards; Harrison (2), center; Mckinney GID and Duke, guards.
 Substitutions: B. A. C., Shores for Mandy, Stubbs (4 for Floyd, Bryan for Stubbs, Adkins CD for H. Hahn, Montgomery for Afford. Auburn, Jones for Duke, Savage for Harri- son. Creel for Dudley, Dudley for Creel.

SHORTY" PROPST
 Eorw.rJ

Coach Abelrs Redbird five bowed to the strong Montgomery Triangles Saturday night at the Central "Y" gym. 44-23, for the second time with in two weeks. when ability to loop field goals and to take advantage of fouls was displayed by an adept basketeer named Newman, who jumped center for the Blue clan.
 Seemingly dazed and breathless from the sudden lead the Montgom- erians took in the closing moments of the first half, the locals failed to show the style of expert bas- keteering that has marked their per. formance throughout the season.
 After the riot act was read to the Birdmen during the rest period between halves by their coach, they came back and stemmed somewhat the Montgomery march, but they really came too late to make any definite impression on the final score.
 Displaying a fine fashion of floor play, and handling the ball with ease, the visitors took many long shots tEats dropped through the loop fol two-point tallies despite good guard ing by Shepperd and Davis.
 Owens and Newman starred for the winners, while the play of Cald- well and Shepperd for the losers was notable in the contest. This was the second Montgomery win in so many nights, they having defeated the strong Mill team at Sylacauga Fri day night. Line-ups:
 Montgomery (44-Hall G0) an, Cobb (10), forwards; Newman (2O) center; Willis and Owens, guards.
 Birmingham (23)-Caldwell (10) and Hillburn (S), forwards; Endsle, (6), center; Shepperd and Davis guards

 Cawthorne, versatile guard of the Woodlawn aggregation, was the high scorer of the game, totaling up 10 points. the majority of which were foul goals which he looped with ease. R, Moore and Burns were the other scoring lights for the Fasteners.
 After playing some time with neither team able to put over a marker. the Centrals stepped out and secured a two-point margin. This was quickly cut down by their op- ponents, and from then on it was nip and tuck until the half ended, Il to 9 in favor of the Centrals.

 The B. A. c. Alabama game will be played on the Birmingham court. and will be a return affair between the two teams in their first meeting this season, the Crimsons defeated the Blues by a three point margin, with the advantage of playing on their own court. That is indication enough that Tuesday nights game will be a grueling affair from start to finish.

 The squad is in very good shape. with the exception of Vernon Stabler, who is out of the lineup with injuries. To fill Stabler's vacancy, Shorty Propst, former Birmingham Southern star, has been shifted from guard to forward, aad Me C1lntock used at guard in his place. Captain McGauley at for ward, Hudson at guard and Carter at center round out the combination that will be used against the B. A. c. Blues Tues day night
 Alabama is thought to have one of the best quintets in the history of basketball at the university, and followers of the Crimsons are hopeful that the slip-up at Tech Friday night will turn out to be the only one of the season.
