ALEXANDER CITY ELEVEN IS STRONG
Have Won Six Out Of Seven Games, Losing Only To.
 Sidney Lanier

ALEXANDER CITY. Ala, Nov. b.-- Special. )-Local football fans are keyed up to a high pitch over the splendid record that has been made by the Alexander City High school team this season. Of the seven games played by the local team, only one defeat has been registered against them and that was by Sidney Lanier at Cramton bowl.
 The local team opened the season with a victory over Clay County High at Ashland by defeating that team to O. Following that game it de- feated Coosa County High by score of IS to O. Then came the defeat by Silney Lanier.
 Following the Sidney Lanier game, Opelika High was taken on next and defeated by score of 52 to O. Next came Calhoun County High, which was defeated by the locals IA to O, while Elmore County High was de- feated fair week by score of 25 to the season until the present time was last Friday afternoon when the locals defeated Handley High of Roanoke by score of 12 to z.
 The Fourth District Agricultural school, located at Sylacauga, comes next Friday and this Is expected to be another close game and a good one. The team came through the Roanoke game in pretty fair shape and unless some of the men are hurt during the coming week in practice, the team will go into the next game in pretty fair shape.
 It Is considered thct the local high school has made a fine reputation when the fact Is considered that this Is the second season that football has been played in this city. Coach Ansley has built up a high school football machine that will make it interesting for any high school team In the state.

ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 5.-With the heavier half of the southern confer ence football schedule yet to be play ed. results of last weeks contests in a scrambled condition. Five of the Fl teams are knotted with per feet percentages, with six others with in striking distance of the top.
 Five tie games have thus far served to delay any definite trend toward conference supremacy and an irreg- ular schedule, in which some mem bers play only two or three confer ence games while others play five and six, adds complications.
 The University of Georgia and Washington and Lee head the 1000 per cent column, the Bulldogs with two wins in two starts and the Gen. erals with two wins In three at ten-pts. the odd game being 2 2 draw with Kentucky.
 Georgia Tech. Vanderbilt and Ala one victory each one tie for Ala bama and Vanderbilt and two fol Tech.
 Virginia Polytechnic and V. Nj. I Tennessee and North Carolina witf percentage of .677 and Maryland ant Mississippi Aggies with .500 still are important factors in the race.

 The tie games were played by Ken. lucky Washington and Lee; Auburn Clemson; Vanderbilt Mississippi Az. gies; Alabama-T Tech; Florida-Tech.
 Clemson, with but two conference games scheduled, is out of the rae, with one defeat and one tie.

JACKSONVILLE TOiSARAZEN COMES IN PLAY BULLDOGS FIRST AT PIMLICO
Great Two -Year-0Id Wins Easily In Handicap
 Race

PIMLICo, Md, Nov. 5.-Sarazen, the undefeated two-year- Gelding owned by Mrs w K. Vanderbilt came sloshing home in the mud, a winner, pulled up, in the second half of the Pimlico serial weight-for-age handi- cap Monday afternoon.
 The race was just breeze, for Sarazen, although he was opposed by General Thatcher, of the Nevada stock farms, and Blazes owned by J. s. Cosden, each five year5 old. It was a run of one mile and through the mud, too, for it began to rain about two hours before the horses went to the barrier. Sarazen had 100 pounds aboard. General Thatcher hoisted 120 and Blazes 125.
 This was the eighth holding of the event. Bunting won the first half of the race some time ago, Bunting is a four-year- old. Bunting was entered Tor Mondays race also, but was scratched. Flagstaff was scratched, too. Blazes was an added starter.
 Sarazen proved in this race that he is one of the best if not the best of all two-year-o horses on the American turf, confirming the ina dlcations he showed when he beat Happy Thoughts in their recent S15,0O0 match race at Laurel.
 In the serial, Sarazen was never let out all the way. No horse pressed him and he was taking the assign ment easy as he finished. Jockey Callahan sent him ahead at the start and he never caught a glimpse of another horse until he faced about after crossing the line to find the rest struggling along behind
 General Thatcher won second place by dash in the. stretch, when he conquered Blazes, after running third | for six furlongs
 Sarazen was heavily backed because of his reputation and therefore paid
 only s2.30 to $2 in the betting ma chimes

Papyrus Is Sold .T0J.P. Hornung,

LONDON, Nov. 5.-J. P. Hornung, a millionaire sugar merchant, Is the buyer of Papyrus, Great Britain's B. year-old champion race horse, &C., cording to the Evening News, which adds Papyrus will race only one year more under the oolors of his new master.
 Ben Irish. the gentleman farmer who bought Papyrus for & small price as a yearling and was rewarded by worldwide fame and fortune in purses and winnings, declined to an- nounce the name of the purchaser at the time of the sale.
 Hornung is no newcomer to the racing game. Basil Jarvis, trainer of Papyrus, has conditioned several of his horses. and therefore is likely to continue in close association with the champion that he escorted to the United States. where. Papyrus y7as de- feated by Zev.
 It Is understood that Papyrus will compete in several classics in 1924 and vii be retired to the stud there aften

Howard To Play Teachers In Anniston Following
 Saturday

After battle of slop and mud at Rickwood Saturday, the Howard Bulldogs enjoyed a dismal day at practice Monday afternoon. The chilly breeze that blew across Berry Field allowed the Bulldogs to romp and play more than is their won't the first practice day after a .Satur- days engagement.
 However no really stiff workout was on tap for the candidates of Cope Monday. Limbering up and running out the kinks were the main things on the program. and while they were ringing out the kinks theyealso were drying out and scraping rather muddy uniform that stood mud singing affair in the Millsaps game.
 Probably the best shape that the squad has come out of the game was the result of this last encount- CT. Not man was taken from the field of fray last Saturday. Of course several of the varsity squad that has been on the shelf for a week or two are not in the best of shape. Toby Stubbs did not get into action at all Saturday, but may be around into condition by the Jack sonville confab.
 The coaches, this week and in the weeks to come, will prime their mon for the game with Birmingham Southern scheduled for the next home encounter. Before that time, though, Jacksonville State Normal and the University of Chattanooga must be disposed of, the disposal of which will be no light task.
 Bulldogs Go To Annfston.
 Saturday morning the Doggies will entrain for Anniston, where they will take on the Jacksonville State Normaiists,. fresh from victory over the Auburn Rats. The game at Anniston will be no set-up for the Baptists. as the Teachers held the Birmingham -Southerners to a scoreless tie earlier in the season and they have also been giving sev- eral other teams literal fits.
 On account of the short distance to Anniston Coach Cope will take a large number of men to meet the Skaters. By that time Toby Stubbs should be able to return to his place at guard, and the work of Spicer at the other guard last Saturday left nothing to be desired. LaFayette Kelly, tackle, also should be in good condition by then and able to live rp to his reputation established in the Vandy and Auburn games. The work of Captain Shelton and Frank Norris at ends has made those two places easy spots in the coaches hearts, while Bo Brindley and Claud Brewster both have shown them- selves adept men at the pivot.
 Ham" Stevens bunting in slick weather was a redeeming feature of his work Saturday, while the work of Marvin Mccarthy and Polly Scok- el was encouraging. Dan Gaylord Fred White, Slick Lollar and Max Weber also should be ready to de- liver, while Russell Tinklepaugh's injury ought to heal in time to see service Saturday.
 Probably the program for the rest of the week in the Bulldog kennel
