HOWARD TEAM TO ENTRAIN FRIDAY
BrindIey Will Not Make Trip To Jackson With
 Bulldogs

A carload of Bulldogs will ship out of the Magic City Friday night en route to the sunny hills of Tennessee, in which state at Jackson. they will eleven in physical and personal com bat. These same Bulldogs will rep resent none other than the Crimson and Blue of Howard college. 4
 A skull practice Friday afternoon will wind up the week of practice that has been set in for prepara- tion of this clash with the Tennes- scans. Signal drill was the oroer or the day Thursday, after two rather stiff scrimmages on Tuesday and on Wednesday.
 The frame of mind that the How ard Bulldog is in would indicate that the University boys of Jack son are in for a tough time Satur- day. Last year these same Unionists whipped the Howard Bulldog in his own backyard, and 1t would do said little Bulldog a whale of lot of good to go to Union and do the same to that Bulldog in his backyard. Be- sides in the last three games the Bulldogs have lost couple of heart breakers by small. margins, one to Sewanee. 8 to 2, and one to Missis- sippi, to 8, so that the mental at titude of the Copers is that 1t is time they started bringing home the bacon.
 The Bulldog team that journeys to Jackson Friday night does not in- clude among it's numbers the veteran "Bo" Brindley, center de luxe. "Bo" has been in a bummed-up condition for sometime now, and Coach Cope leaving him behind this week to get a little rest and recuperation.
 However, to offset the loss of ''Bo" BrindIey in the line is the return to the fold in antagonistic and eat-em- up mind of one Frank Norris and one Toby Stubbs, both linemen and let termen at that. Toby returns to his old post of guard and Frank will tear lem up at his old place of end. Both these boys will start thee clash Saturday and for the rest of the sea- son fans are to look to them for some real stflar work.
 The starting line up for the fray Saturday will be: Capt. Bob Shelton, left end; Kelly, left tackle; Spicer. Stubbs. right guard; Garfield. right tackle Norris, right end; Stevens, quarterback; Weber. left half; Scok- el, right half; Lollar. full. This line up includes the best that the coaches can put forth. The line has letter men in all places except Kelly, Spicer and Brewster, while Ham Stevens is the only vet In the backfield.
 The entire squad of men to go to Jackson includes beside coach Cope and Dick Nunnelley, manager, and the above, Williams, end; Lasseter and Dendy, tackles; Rains and Brooks. guards: Gaylord, Russell Tinkle- paugh, White and Mccarthy.
 The varsity will leave the Terminal station at Il o'clock Friday night, arriving in Jackson early Saturday

JASPER, Ala. Oct 25.-(Special Leased Wire)-We lost that game to Cullman High but we aint going to loose no more," is the name of the song that the Walker High school students have bee nsinging at the chapel exercises this week.

AMERICAN COMMITTEE ON OLY1MPICS MAKE BIG PLANS
NEW BOXER FROM
 CHILE SHOWS UP
Vincentini Will Try To Follow Trial Of Luis Angel
 Firpo

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-Inspired, not to say uplifted, by his contemplation of Luis Angel Firpo's business sue cess in the American ring, Luis Vim centini, Chilean lightweight claim ing the championship of South Amer ica and adjacent islands, will begin his career in the same business at the Garden Friday night.
 Luis meets Barney Kelley, scion of the car barn Kelleys of the West Side, who starred at fullback on the varsity of Union Barber college and was picked for the All-Tenth Avenue team of 1921. Young Mir. Kelley has red hair and his neighbors have a feeling of sorrow for Luis Vincentini.
 vincentini is not so famous or so pressed with demands for his work in the ring but that he still has time to be interviewed. Thus, a chat with him revealed that he has an ambition to be knocked out for $200,000 as Luis Angel Firpo was.
 T would very much admire to be knocked out for $2U0,000," he said. But I am only beginner and I realize that I cannot demand such fees just yet"
 In fact, the modest vincentini may be knocked out for S2. as the pre- ute and if Vincentini should be stopped in the first minute of round one, his fee would barely equal his taxi fare to the hospital.
 All the South American newspapers will have correspondents and cable operators at the ringside to send ex- pensive descriptions of Vincentini's debut at 10 cents word. The com bined accounts of his performance will cost as much as Luis Angel Firpo received for his first three bouts in America.
 Billy Wells. the British welter- weight, and Davey Shade of Califor- mia fight in the star event, a 15- rounder to a decision. The winner will be declared the champion of the welterweight division by the New York boxing commission.

Zbyszko To sWrestle Plestina MondayNight


 NEW YORK, Oct. 25.--The wrest- ling business, deodcrized and disin- fected since last year. will resume next Monday night with finish bout between Wladek Zbyszko and Martin Plestina under the close scrutiny of the boxing commission.
 Because of the stale odors arising from the wrestling business in New York in time past efforts have been made to remove the business from the jurisdiction of the boxing com mission and place it under the au- thority of the health department.
 Commissioner Muldoon, himself an ex-wrestler and likewise an adept performer on the police whistle, hav- ing also been a copper, has given stern instructions to Ernest Roeber, who is to referee the first match of the season. At the first sign of fak- ing or foul work Roeber will raise his police whistle to his lips and blow 8 long blast.

of them that reaches Ely, admit the
existence there of SMALLPOX. They

more lives than it spares and which
has wrought havoc nj the Utah city.
where it has been prevalent fer sew
eral weeks, as told in the White Pine
News two weeks ago.
In a current issue of the Tribune,
studiously placed in an obscure por-
lion, ut the bottom of a page that Is
seldom read, with a small heading,
appeared an item saying that small
pox conditions were improving. 1t
alleged that from twenty-three the
number of cases had been reduced TO
twenty-one and expressed thanks for
this gratifying showing to the vac
cination of thousands of persons by
the health authorities since the first
of the year.
The article was not one-third as
long as this one is.
Later issues of the paper contained
more extended mentions of the pres
cnce of the disease. on admitting that
there was some black smallpox there.

stores their hay in his warehouse in

agent for such sales as they do not

the hay and 5 per cent for all other
sales made here, even made by mem
hers Of the association.
The wholesale price of baled al
falfa or wild hay In Ely Is S24 a ton.
Where it is retailed by the bale II is

throughout the fall and winter and
no variation is anticipated during the
season.

the season and a lot of Il could hard
