 With a light signal practice Fri day afternoon the Panthers conclud- ed two and a haM weeks of practice for their opening game aold will get under way this afternoon on sched- ule that students on Sunshine Slopes believe will guide the activities of the Golden Panther through ses- sion that will be one of the most suc- cessful in the history of tbe school.
 The lineup that will face Jackson Mile Saturday afternoon wiH include sthree new men and eight veterans. q Capt Big Hoss" Candy and Dad" Howell are both Panther veterans but Howell is playing in a new po- sition at end. Capt. Candy is, one of the best ends that has been on the Hill in many years and will be one of the best men on the Panther eleven this year. Howell played a good tackle on the Panther team last year but got his ankle broken at Chattanooga.
 At tackles two new men will start. 4Wilbur Calhoun Is a freshman who tips the scale at about 200 and is Aggressive. He has been showing up well in practice and shows promise of being one of the best linesmen in strong line this year. Turner Scott afailed making his letter in 1921 by quarter of a game but has prac- tically cinched berth this year. 1n- elegible last year he played a great game on the scrub eleven and has de- veloped into a hard hitting tackle who can be depended upon.
 At guards there Is one veteran and IIot vNlEs xyaA a varsity tackle last year but has taken over a hard guard position 7this year. On the other side of cen ter Douglas Pritchett. one of the star linesmen of the scrub team, has won the right to start the game. ;Pritchett. although weighing in at l160 shows promise of making the TPanthers great guard for he is a Jaard hitter and his lightness is made up for by his aggressiveness.
 At center Hoyt Levie will be sta tioned at the first whistle for the start. Lsvie Is light, but aggressive \ and is reliable passer. He was var sity center last year.
 Id F'ne. Sackfield is the department u .that has got the students in a tum- TSult of speculation. With only one iTveteran backfield man starting the 'backers of the Gold and Black are anxious to see the outcome of at
 
 main reason for the Panther students speculation Is Red" Farr. Farr played varsity tackle last year, but has been shifted to fullback this sea son. Red" weighs around ITO and is one of the fastest men on the field He has been doing great work ir practice carrying the ball anc Panther packers are predicting g 2 great year for him at full. Red Richardson. the only veteran. will play his position at half.
 At the other half Sid Godbee, 2 \ speedy youngster, will start the game. Godbee is light, hut Is fast and should develop Into a good broken field ground gainer. Al quarter June Anderson, substitute quarter last year, will start the game June lis light, but is a reliable little backfield man.
 This lineup may not be in the game over one quarter for Coach Brown will probably send in every man he has in uniform on the flelc into the game If the score permits.

 Coach Bush brought along 20 mer with him on the trip to the MagiC City and says he has lighter team Ahan last year but scrappy one <The backfield is showing more prom. ise even than that of last year ant several fast men are on the Norma loffensive machine.
 R Powell is a fleet half and is dan. { gerous man when he gets under / steam. He is also a good broker field runner. Ditto at full is a re liable ground gainer, while Griffir at quarter plays a steady game.
 The Pedagogues have a strong line this year and will put up the Pan ther backs a stiff resistance
