"HUMANIZINC" PLAN
Of Managers Organization
Is Ancient Trick

New York.-The American Man
apement Association has been formed
in this city "to put the human touch
in factory work" The scheme has
been launched times without number
but this is a sure go, its promoters
say
Speakers declared it is time to un-
dertake consideration of the human
factor in commerce and industry" NO
one suggested that the element most
vitality interested be consulted. One
speaker made this statement that has
a world of meaning:
"The leaders of American industry
must carry to the rank and file OF
the workers clear and simple ex-
planation of the problems of business
as they relate to financing, production
and marketing"
This would indicate that the So
called "humanizing" movement is to
be an effort to acquaint workers with
the bosses troubles-both real and
imaginary. The organizers of the
new association are mostly directors
of company unions" for corporations
like the Pennsylvania railroad, Stand
ard Oil Company of New Jersey, in
ternational Harvester Company, Car
negie Steel Company and United
States Rubber Company.

COMPERS RESISTS
PNEUMONIA ATTACK

New York.-President Gompers
strong vitality aided him in warding
off a serious attack of fue and pneu-
monia, from which he is recovering
in Lennox hospital. Shortly after his
arrival in this city he became i'll and
was hastened to the hospital as the

Dr.. Fisch, his attending physician,
insisted that he remain in the hospi-

Alexander City EleUen
 Has Hard Opponents

ALEXANDER CITY, Ala. Oct. 30 Especial )-Coach Ansley is giving his football squad of the Alexander City High school some strenuous workouts this week. He had tull squad out Monday afternoon, ana notwithstanding the hard game o1l Friday when the Alexander Cltyl High defeated the Elmore County High, the men are in good condition. Six games have been played this season and only one defeat has been registered so far and that was oy Sidney Lanier in Crampton Bowl. only one other team has been able to score on the locals.
 The team yet has to face Roanoke, which comes next Friday, the Fourth District Agricultural school, the East Alabama Industrial institute at Line, Tallassee and the Lee County High, in the order named. It is go- ing to take hard work to maintain the record already set, but the 'eam is in good condition and going strong.
 Coach Ansley had Watwood and Perkins, the big backfield men, punt ing Monday afternoon, while Cap tain Nolen, Jordan. Turner and Bell yeu Hnemen, tried their toes on kicking off. The men showed up pretty well in this work and the followers of the game are hopeful of a fine season.

WOODLAWN HI TO MEET BULLPUPS
lame To Be Played Friday
 l9 Afternoon At 2::3O At
 '4A Berry Field

Howard College Reserves will meet Woodlawn High at 2:30 Friday after noon at Berry field. The teams are pretty evenly matched and both are expecting to meet a foe worthy of i their metal. Each team has three victories and one defeat to their credit.
 ~>-The Bull Pups have defeated Wal ker County High, to 0, Fayette County High 3 to 0; Etowah. A to 0. Cullman defeated them 20 to 0, but the Bull Pups had been through some hard scrimmages preparing their varsity for the game with Union, and were nat in the best of condition.
 Woodlawn has defeated Pell City, 55 to O; Disque, 47 to 0, and the Bir- mingham-S Southern Reserves, to o. They lost to the heavy and more ex- perienced Alabama Reserves, IS to 0.
 The Howard Reserves are in good shape, as they came out of last week S , game without any injuries and will Abe going fine unless something unex- llpected happens between now and eFriday.

He will be sadly missed. as his playing has already won for him large following among local fans, although this is his first year here. Mitchell Burns, who played a hard game against the University team and stayed in until the last quarter was completely worn down by the heavy task of blacking up his line. and will be laid up probably all this week.
 Allen Moore will probably be given an opportunity to fill Burns place at fullback. and Clyde Maxwell will hold down Sentells place at left end. while Chandler will be depended upon to take care of Moore's old place at light end.
 Brewster at left tackle has been doing the best work for the Bull Pups, while Tom Jones at right tackle has been doing the best for the Junior Colonels. Jones played the best game of any man on the field at Redwood Saturday. and IS at tracting the attention of all those who know a good lineman when they see him. The watching of the play of these two fellows should furnish one very interesting afternoon. \=Ford at quarter for the Howard boys l will have no little task if he sur passes the work of the Woodlawn quarter Bancroft

CRIMSONS BATTLE
 ENSLEY SATURDAY
Phillips Squad Working Hard For Big Game Of
 The Year

Phillips High school eleven is put ting every thing they have in their practice this week for the end of foe, Ensley High. The game is slated for Saturday morning at 10 o'clock at Redwood Field.
 Tuesday afternoon Coaches Still well and Bagley sent the Crimson team through enc of the stiffest workouts of the year. A light work out Monday to get the men limbered up from the game Saturday and a day off Sunday started the week but Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons were scheduled for driv- ing mercilessly and Tuesday after con the Crimsons came in for the first part of the hard work.
 The team did not display in it's wares Saturday a sufficient amount of heads-up football to please the coaches but Tuesday the team re- sponded to the driving with a snap that treasured the mentors and the old fight of the ancient warrior marks the practices on Delta View park.
 Another bright spot on the ho- rizon for the coming game is the fact that McArthur, flashy little
 
 Although McArthur started the year as substitute, only being able to work as understudy to the speed merchants, Grill and Captain Holder. he did great work when allowed to participate which was in all of the games. He is an elusive broken field runner and is putting up a hard fight to displace the backfield stars, Grill and Holder. He will get into the game Saturday, even if he does not start. and will be counted on 10 do some long advancing via the broken field route.
 He is the only man that is not in good condition for the game. The remainder of the team will enter the battle physically fit. William son and Fullbright were having a little trouble with weak ankles but will not be bothered by them in the Ensley game.
 The Crimson eleven will outweigh the Ensley team by good margin and will have, in addition, a quar- tet of backfield men that are hard to stop. :,

Will Attempt To Close Stadium
 Driue This Week

Over 450 subscriptions for $100 shares of preferred stock in the Bir- mingham Stadium association were re- ported in at the meeting of the cap- tains in charge of the teams in the field, who held a meeting in the Chamber of Commerce rooms Tues day afternoon at o'clock. The campaign is progressing favorably, but an effort is being made to close the drive out this week or during the next week at the latest. One thou sand shares of stock is the goal set for the field workers. This means 00,000 which will convert the Junior Chamber of Commerce's project into a sound financial proposition in which merchants and business men of the city will be asked to invest their money in the form of s1 900 bonds
 The ultimate object is a s275, 900 stadium for Birmingham, which will put the Magic City on the map in athletics. With fine stadium, such as is proposed for Birmingham, this city would be the mecca of football teams all over the south and all of the major southern football games would be played 4.ere while many in- tersectional battles would be fought out on local soil.
 Taking it for granted that the stadium is an assurred thing and that Birmingham citizens will see that cause so worthy will not fall through the Junior Chamber of Commerce has entered into negotia- tions with many of the leading col leges of the country for scheduling some of their most important games in the Magic City.
 Among the teams approached are Georgetown Notre Dame, Texas A. & M. and M. L. s. U., Florida, Georgia Georgia Tech. Vanderbilt Michigan Pittsburg, Mississippi A. & M., V. M. l., Virginia and many others. This means that Birmingham will have instead of one or possibly two major games year that there will be full schedule of the country's biggest classics of the gridiron slated for the new stadium.
 Such thing now of course is im- possible. Even at the more import ant games played at Redwood now half of the fans have to stand up and practically all of them are stand ing up before the game gets well under way. Then there is always a royal scramble for seating room and the conditions are unsatisfactory in many other ways. The need of a stadium is readily felt by any foot ball fan that attends big games at Redwood and with the present cramped facilities Birmingham will never be favored by any of the real football games of the south and by intersectional contests.

ENSLEY HI LOSES RACKFIELD STAR.
Jackets Will Be Weakened For Game Saturday
 With Phillips

Calamity befell the hive of Yellow Jackets at Ensley High school in practice this week when Vines, stel- lar halfback broke his collarbone and will not be able to take a hand in the annual melee between Phillips and Ensley high school elevens Sat urday morning at Redwood park.
 The loss of Vines is a serious blow to the clan of Coach Jim Bryan and he will be sorely missed when the was a strong defensive man, not ex- actly speed merchant but fast enough to be a valuable offensive man as well. Few back rushing his side of the field for long gains and passes were taboo in his territory. The lament is loud that comes from the. hive of the Jackets.
 Undaunted, however, Coach Bryan sent his charges into a hot scrim- mage with the Fairfield team and run them till dark. The team for tunately will not be handicapped in the physical department other than the loss of Vines. All of the Jackets are in good condition and will enter the fray Saturday morning deter mined to give their best.
 Coach Bryan has a tough week S work doped out for his proteges, and Tuesday was only the start of pe- riod of driving that he hopes will terminate with his team in good shape.
 The Ensley team will be out weighed in the game with Phillips, and here it will meet with serious setback. One of it's best bets in pre- vious games was Captain Country" Lowery, husky fullback, who has smashed lines asunder in earlier games. However, the center of Phil lips lino pulls the scales at about 176 to the man, and smashes at this portion of the Crimson defense will be of no great success
 However, in the backfield the Jack cts boast of two or three fleet run ners, and here is where the attack win probably center. Open play and the aerial game will probably be used largely by the Ensley squad and straight football will be discarded.
 The odds will be in favor of Phil lips in the battle on account of their superior weight and two or three backfield stars,

ATLANTA, Oct. 3O.-Although the southern intercollegiate conference prohibits post-season football games, Dr. S. V.

MERCER TO PLAY
 FLORIDA GATORS
BaptistS Have Short End Of Dope As Figured By
 Comparison

MACON, Ga, Oct. (Specia1)- Georgia Baptist vs. Florida Ali gators.
 For many weeks now football fans over the state and throughout the south have been discussing the prob able outcome Ct the grid contest be- tween Mercer university's Battling Baptists anl the University of Flor ida's Alligators, the game to be sta ged in Gainesville, Fla, next Sat urday afternoon.
 Before the memorable meeting of Florida and Georgia Tech on Grant l field over two years ago, local fan dom seemed inclined to give Mercer at least an even chance with the | gridders from the Sunshine State. Since that game so forcibly demon i strated the strength of the Florida aggreg gation, however. when the two embattling rivals fell to dog fall, there has been a considerable revision of dope. and a general readjustment of money in the local camp.
 And while present indications will hardly justify an even moderately optimistic outlook, it is to be remem- bered, on the other hand, that the Macon collegians boast the best grid record that institution has compiled | in many years. Out of her five sched- uled games. the Baptists have emerg- eu NlClOTlOuS OIl lOuT oCtdSiollS, NAlS only loss being to the Georgia Bull dogs, who, incidentally, hold the dis tinction of being the only team to cross the Orange and Black goal line | this season. The local gridsters are able to claim certain distinctions on their own account, too, for the Mer- cer aggregation is the only college eleven in Georgia which has scored more points than it's opponents, cal cIlated collectively.
 1 Tech, the nearest competitor. has h CT own aggregate score column and that of her opponents, standing "even-Steven" with 72 points each Mercer has scored 52 points. to 13 | for the opposition, and, while this may not show up her offensive power to the greatest advantage, it speaks volumes for her defensive play.
 The strength of both the Florida and Mercer elevens was displayed to poor advantage in the last contests on the bills of each institution. The l Gators last Saturday allowed the Wake Forest eleven to ring up a touchdown, while the Floridians themselves accounted for only two tallies. Like Mercer, however, it is quite probable that the Gainesville college was content with administer ing the invaders a bare defeat with- | out attempting to run up e higl score. Mercer's tilt with Birming- ham Soythern, in which the Baptists were for three quarters held score less, and once had their goal threat ened, would make it appear that theiI offense is weaker than it really Is

SPOTLIGHT OF RAGING WORLD IS TURNED ON LATONIA RACE
Zev And My Own Leave Wednesday For Big Race Saturday For Three-Year- Old Supremacy

NEW YORK, Oct 30.-The cham pion Swear old of two racing na- tions, Harry Sinclairs zev, will climb sboard his private car Wednesday and sing ho! for Latonia, Ky, where he will have it out at last with Ad- miral Grayson's colt, My Own, in the Latonia championship next Saturday afternoon.
 At the same time, but not exactly with Zev, large colony of hostlers, work boys, pikers, plungers, trainers, fouts and other human miscellany of southward progress for the winter. Some of them will go in the Pull mans and have their meals in the diner. And some will drape them selves about the rods or stow them selves in the battery boxes and have along the line. But all will be there by Saturday for the race which Is to decide the true championship of the 3-year-old class.
 All classes of gamblers, which means all classes of race track peo- pie except some few owners, train- CTS, judges and starters, have been alternately heavy with money and light for the lack of it as the luck has fluctuated this year. Favorites have run true to form and favorites have run backward. Players smashed the bookmakers when the favorites ambled home ahead and the books grew fat when fayorites for got their road maps.
 Admiral Grayson's horse, My Own, was reported to be leaving the Laurel, Md, track Tuesday for La tonia. The admirars colt will suffer an especially humiliating defeat if Zev should beat him Saturday for 2 sentimental public recently became indignant on My Owns behalf and Zev was accuser of lodging a race with the salts horse. Admiral Gray son resented the snubbing he re- ceived from the tactless managers of the Zev-Papyrus race, but did not publicly criticise the owners of Zev.
 It is possible that both Zev and My Own will be beaten in the La tonia championship. This would ob- scure the title, but the winning horse. on this victory alone, would not have a very strong claim to the cham pionship. The entry list probably will be small
 Zev was not strongly challenged for the American championship until late this season. My Own did not run ln either the Preakness or the Named in one of his front ankles. It was not until August that he began to run and then he made himself 8 factor in any reckoning of the cham pionship for the season by winning i've races at Saratoga. Later he took the national trial stakes, the uuali- lying race for the international match, with ease, and since then has won the S10,000 Maryland handicap.
 In memoriam, western Swear old colt, winner of several important stakes; probably will go to the post with the two more famous contenders

 Papyrrs had no share in the greet ing inasmuch as it was decided not to bring him ashore until morning.
 Donoghue and Jarvis had pleasant things to say about their reception in America. They praised Zev as a fine horse and said they had nothing to complain of except the weather.
 ''It was the track that beat us," said Donogaue. s"Until the terrible downfall the night before the race we had a good chance of winning but the rain changed everything. However, on the days conditions we were beaten by better horse"

Singleton. former football star on the local high eleven, during his senior year in the high school. is in line to se- cure premier honors in the strong Dartmouth college eleven is the opin- ion of the Harvard Crimson and Bos- ton dailies, who have discussed his work.
 Singleton recently played in the game with Vermont and was unable to play on Saturday when the mighty Harvard bit the Dartmouth dust to score of 16-0. Singleton is the son of MT. and Mrs. A. H. Singleton of this city, where he was prominent in school activities.
