RED SOX FURNISH
 MANY MANAGERS
Two Take Charge Of Amer ican Teams And One May
 Go To National

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.AThe Boston Red Sox, tail enders this season, have furnished candidates to fill two managerial vacancies in the Ameri- can league-Chicago and Washing ton-and one prospective vacancy in the National league at Boston.
 The candidates are Frank Chance coach, respectively, of the Red Sox this season, who have been dis placed by Lee Fohl, former St. Louis pilot, under the new Boston owner ship.
 The post which Fohl left at St. Louis and which Jimmy Austin has been filling temporarily, will be oc- cupied by George Sisler next season, but as yet the White Sox and Sem at0rs have signed no new leaders.
 Chance, who himself admits having two big league offers under consid- eration, has been mentioned partic- ularly for the Washington job, vacted by Donie Bush, but his name also has been coupled with the Chi cago berth, where Kid Gleason re- signed in discouragem over the clubs showing. Eddie Collins, Harry Hooper and Ed Walsh also loom as possible successors to Gleason. And now that Burke, who formerly was at the helm for the St. Louis Browns, has been released, he too, may be in line for either post.
 Rumors persist that President Christy Mathewson of the Boston Braves is to make a change whereby Manager Fred Mitchell will be re- leased or asked to assume his former role of coach of pitching. George has been reported as a prospective Braves manage.

FROM THE OBSERVATORY LOOKING PROSPECTS OVER

but the Soldiers battler the Tigers fiercely last year
 The first big high school classic of the year will come off at Rick wood Saturday morning, November 8, when Phillips High clashes with Ensley in their annual battle.
 The sixth death from injuries re- ceived in game was reported We'd nesday It seems that from the start the game this year will assume its old-time aspect sf knock down and drag-out despite the fact that the game is on a higher scientific plane this year than ever before and is less dangerous, apparently. How ever, as a general rule, it is either high school players or unconditional men who are injured. One of the players was strangled to death on a chew of tobacco in the -ame.
 Woodlawn High has finally landed an opponent fer, Saturday afternoon. The Colonels had Rickwood Park on this date and it looked for a while that they would not have anyone to put them up opposition to make use of the park. Wednesday, however, they closed the date with the Ala bama reserves from the University and will play Saturday afternoon.
 Shades-Cahaba and Simpson will play Friday afternoon on the Noun taineers' field. Stump Clarke has been drilling the Shades -Cahaba team hard since he took them over a couple of weeks ago, and will have them in fine trim for the Junior Panthers.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. 24.-Al- though the start of the winter rac- ing season in New Orleans is more than month away, horses which will run at Jefferson Park and the fair grounds tracks, already are ar irving.
 The season will open at the Jeff ferson Park Thanksgiving Day, No- vember 29, and continue until De- cen.ber 31, when the scene will shift to the fair grounds track and run until Mardi Gras, March 4.

TORNADO TOMEET
 WEAKENED TEAM

SOUTH BEND. Ind, Oct. 24.-"A Golden Tornado" sweeps north into the lair of the "Micks" Saturday and for the third successive week Notre Dame will combat team of ad- mitted strength when the meet Geor- gia Tech at South Bend.
 The fighting Irish show no partial ity in picking their opponents. After conquering the Army and Princeton on successive Saturdays they are now preparing to face one of the strongest southland elevens.
 Georgia Tech, through its defeat of Georgetown last week, proved its ability to make the going rough for the Irish.
 / Probably at no other time of the season will Notre Dame be so vulner- able as this week. The strain of two long eastern trips and two hard games is bound to tell in some re- lapse. Whether the Golden Torna- does, also weary from two, northern trips. can produce the drive to win out, is uncertain.
 Notre Dame ranks heavy favo- rite, despite it's hard early season games, and fans rely on Coach Rockne to produce baffling screen plays that will strike unexpectedly <. at the Tech team. Last Saturday the "Micks' used many delayed plays, well screened and difficult to fathom, and success of this new style of attack will undoubtedly lead Rockne again to risk all on the mys\ tery of his attacks
 Georgia Tech is best known for its slashing attack that neither gives nor asks any quarter. The south erners never, relax from their driv- ing snaashes.N

BOBBY JONES IS RECORD BREAKER

NEW YORK, oct. 24.-Bobby Jones. youthful Atlanta golf wizard, who shook the jinX that has beset him in title play long enough to bag the national open championship this sea- son at Inwood, is credited with a new record for consistent brilliance in the national event. Records for the past few days show that he has compiled a grand average of "A 5-17 strokes per round. leading all rivals, professional and amateur alike over the span of competition. His nearest rivals are Jim Barnes and Walter Hagen, who over the same stretch. each have averaged 75 1-6 strokes, while Jock Hutcheson is next with a mark of 75 1-2
 Jones made his debute in open play in 1920 and finished eighth with 299 strokes. He was tied for fifth in 1921 with 303 and tied for a second in 1922 with 2S9, stroke behind Gene Sarazen. This year, the Georgian tied Boob Cruickshank with 296, de- feating the ShackamaXon pro" 76 to 7S, in the IS hole playoff for the title.
 Excluding his playoff round this year Jones has taken total of 1,1S7 strokes in the championship proper. as compared with 1901 for Hagen and Barnes and 1,20S for HutchiSon.

PAINTERS LEAVE TODAY FOR GAME
Birmingham Southern To Have Hard Game At
 Macon Friday

 Twenty three men will leave Bir- mingham this afternoon for Macon, Ga. where the Birmingham Southern Panther will meet the Mercer Bap- | lists on the Mercer gridiron before the crowds expected to visit the uni versity campus On Friday, which has been designated as Alumni Day" and before the crowds of the Georgia state exposition which is being held in Macon this week.
 Except for the loss of several of 1 the Gold and Black regulars, the team will be in good condition for the encounter, having spent the past week in hard practice and scrim- mage in preparation for the game with the boys of Georgia.
 Mercer will put a strong team on the field against the BiNning- hamers sending in an eleven which is composed of practically all varsity men of last year and a team which will be complete for the first time in several weeks, with all of the regulars back in the opening lineup. The Baptists are confident of the game Friday, although the Partners are preparing for a fight which has been by no means decided and which will not be until the final whistle blows and the teams are off the field, for the local boys seem to have a habit of rushing the ball down the field in the last minutes of play and score may be looked for at any pe- riod of the game.
 John Candy and Price Howell will be back in the Panther lineup at the end positions, having been kept out of the game on account of injuries last week. The two weeks Cf rest seems to have done both good and | put them in good condition for the 1 encounter Friday. Captain floss" 1 Candy will start at one of the ends, as usual. Don Fullbright, who has seen service in one or two varsity games, will also go along as substi- tute end.
 Levie, Weeks, Pritchett. Scott. Dad Howell, Evans, Ashwander, Calhoun, Nhiteside and Rawls will make the trip as linesmen, with Levie, Pritchett Weeks, Howell and Evans as the probable opening five.
 In the backfield the regular four will start the encounter against the Mercerites. Miller will start at quar- ter, with Williams and Richardson at halves and Red Farr at full. An derson, Yielding, Thompson, Stead and Kelly will complete the list of backfield men making the trip. The first five are veterans of last year, while Welding has been doing some good work Cn the varsity squad all during the season With lew quar ters of experience of last year. John Thompson, at half, has only recently graduated to the varsity and Kelly and Stead are making their first trips with the regulars this season.
 The Gold and Black warriors are going out with the idea of getting revenge for the IT to IA game which the Baptists won from them at Rick
 wood last year, winning by touch
 down in the last five minutes after it seemed as though the Partners
 were evening things after a 19 to 0
 defeat on the year before.

Plenty Of Pep Marks Au- burns First Practice After
 Their Return

AUBURN, Ala, Oct. 24.-(Special.) The Auburn Plainsmen made their first appearance on Drake Field since the clash with the Army Mule Tuesday afternoon. They were greeted by thousands of thunderous which numbered several hundred. Charley Dudley, all-American pcheer leader on the Plains last season, had hit town and with the popular ex- cheer leaders every move the stands went wild. The pep pusher was at his best.

With the cripp1es fast rounding into sahpe Auburn stock took 8 one-eyed squint upward.
 Extensive preparation Is under way for the coming of the crack Fort Benning aggregation to the Tiger campus Saturday. The game with the Infantrymen, while it Is not ex- pected to class quite up to the Big Four" games ahead, will be no 'set-up and the Pitts men will have a chance to show the home folks their 1923 brand of football.
 The Auburn-Benning game of last season resulted in a 30 to 0 victory for the Plainsmen. Reported coming from the khaki camp indicate that the soldier team will present a stiff game Saturday They have played fo,xr for while each contest since their opener has gone down on the red ink side of the ledger they have thrown scare into their opponents ranks.

 A huge mass meeting was held in Langdon hall Tuesday night with the same pr. Dudley as master of cere- monies. Tiger yells with the whole hearted snap and yigor with typical midseason pep were in plentiful abundance. Short and enthusiastic speeches were made by the coaches and others. References were made to the Army game of last Saturday and the coaches, while being mindful of the mountainous obstacles ahead on the Auburn schedule, indicated that they were pleased with the foot ball displayed in the east last Satur- day. With the steady improvement that should come during the remain ing weeks of the present season. much opposition will be put up against Coach VandeGraaf's freshman 1923 menu,

SEWANEE IN FAIR SHAPE FOR GAME
Tigers Play 0gIethorpe Sat- urday At Atlanta In Hard
 Game

SEWANEE, Tenn, Oct. 24.-(Spe- cial. .)-There is nothing but praise on the mountain top for the gallant little band of Purple Tigers that played Alabama to a standstill for nearly four quarters, and would have emerged with a ~o-o score had the breaks of the game been halfway evenly distributed.
 It was hard tC lose the game in the last few minutes of play. and even then it would have been pulled out of the fire had "Son" Perry been able to keep his feet and take the pass that would have put across the tying counter. But its all in the game. as the golfer said when he missed the three-foot putt that would have given him the champion ship.
 What the Purple followers like more than anything else about the game is the way the Tigers fought tooth and nail, with never thought of giving up, a..d steadily held the heavier Alabama boys away from the coveted goal. Outweighed nearly 20 pounds to the man, the Tiger de- fense was too stubborn for Wade's machine to break through except in that one instance near the end of the game.
 We'll, the Alabama game is over with, and Oglethorpe is something else. The Traveling Tigers go tt Atlanta next Saturday, to take on another team that has risen in a short number of years to an anxious position in southern football circles Four times have these teams met and four times the Tigers have emerged victorious. Oglethorpe this year, with admittedly the best team in her history, will have the advan- tage of the Tigers in that they are playing On home soil, before home fans; but the Tigers have got SC used to playing on foreign soil that their best efforts to bring another Oglethorpe scalp to the mountain top.
 The team came through the Ala bama game in fair shape, with the exception of Captain LittLn ',and "Blood" Miller. These two men are very much stove-up at this time and whether they will round back into form by Saturday is question to run into one of the lineman's sticks, which made g rather nasty hole near his shoulder, and Miller bore the brunt of many an attack around his end, and is showing the effects of the gruelling he was sub jected to.
 It is hardly likely that Gooch or w. Kent, both ends, will be ready for work Saturday. These fellows have been nursing bad legs which don't seem to get better Mast enough to allow them to enter the game against Oglethorpe.
 Otherwise, if there are no injuries this week, the Tigers ought to be able to present fairly good defense to the Oglethorpe backs.
