SANDE GOT START AT NEW ORLEANS

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 25.-Earl Sande, Americas premier jockey, who probably would ride Admiral Grayson's My Own if the latter meets Fred Musante's My Dear In match race, rode his first winner on a New Orleans track and My Dear, full sister of My Own, attained promi- hence for the first time here, race followers recalled today.
 Sandes first mount was on J. B. Goldman's gelding, Liberator, in the first race at the fair grounds Janu- ary B. 1918. Goldman had been tell ing fellow horsemen what great exercise boy he had in Sande and he sent what he called good thing" to the post in Liberator with Sande up. Liberator was baked from 25 to to 10 to 1 by Goldman's s money, but Sande suffered from stage fright and headed the gelding directly into a hopeless pocket at the first furlong post. The foot note en the form chart reads: .,

 It was January 1. 1920, that Fred Musante first showed My Dear to the New Orleans public. She fin ished eighth in an eight-horse race and was just starting to run at the end of a 5h -furlong event, thus showing early in her career her pref erence for a route of ground. My Dear beat a fair field of fillies and mares at enc mile two weeks later, while carrying 91 pounds and from that day became a route racer. Now Musante is offering to back her to beat any mare in the country at any distance from mile and a half up.

Game To Be Played Before Large Crowd Friday
 Afternoon

The Birmingham Southern Pan- thers left the Magic City Thursday afternoon to the tune of the college band which was backed by the com bined voices of more than 200 stu dents of the college. for Macon. Ga, where it will meet the strong combi nation of Mercer University Friday afternoon.
 The game Friday will probably be witnessed by a larger crowd than any which has gathered for 8 foot ball game in Macon for some time as Friday has been officially designated as Alumni Day" at the university and additional seating space has been provided for at the scene of the encounter. An additional crowd is expected because the game will be one of the features Of the Georgia state exposition. which is now open in Macon.
 With the exception of three mem bers Coach Brown carried the en- tire varsity squad with him Thurs day afternoon, practically every member of the squad being in good condition. The lineup will be fur ther strengthened by the addition of two of the regulars who were out of the encounter with Millsaps last week.
 Mercer will present one of the strongest line-ups this season when the opening whistle blows this after noon, all of the regulars being back in harness for the first time since the game with the University of Georgia, when Mercer sprung one of the greatest surprises of the season in the shape of to score against the Bulldogs. The Mercer boys have been putting in week of hard prac- tice in preparation. for the game with the Partners who have been doing equally hard work in Birming- ham.
 The Gold and Black team Is leav- ing Birmingham with the idea of wiping out the memory of number of defeats at the hands of the Geor- bgia Baptists in times past and are expected to give the Mercerites one Of the hardest fights of the year.
 Miller, Williams, Richardson and Farr will probably start the game for Birmingham- Southern, Yielding. Anderson, Thompson, Kelly and Stead being carried along to be used in case of necessity, the first three being reasonably sure of playing in some part of the game.
 In the line, Levie will probably begin the game at center, Weeks and Pritchett at guard, Dad Howell and Evans at tackle, and Hoss Candy and Price Howell at ends. An entire ex- tra line is carried on the trip, with Rawls at center, Ashwander and Whiteside at guard, Scott and Cal hound at tackles and John Candy and Fullbright at ends. It may be possible, however, that some of the | line may be shifted and some of the | secoud named bunch be started at the opening of the game. Practically every man carried has seen service l in one or more of the varsity games and should do some good work this afternoon.
 The game with Mercer will prob ably prove to be one of the hardest on the Panther schedule for the re- mainder of the year, as the Baptists | have shown some high-class work l during the early part of the season.

CHATTANOOGA TO CLASH SATURDAY

CHATTANOC "A, Tenn, Oct. 24.- Special l.)-University of Chattanooga football squad is being put through a strenuous four days training this week in preparation for the game with IT ansvlvania in Lexington, Ky. Saturday. Regular games have been played between first and second teams every day, with several new men in the action. The avowed i'm tention of Coaches McAllister and Talman is to try to bring the ath- letes to fine edge in training and then to let them run easy so far as practice goes for the three bis games coming in a row, without. breathing space-Sewanee Birmingham South ern and Howard.
 Coach McAllester is firmly of the opinion that his team would have beaten Mercer last Saturday had not Harry Cate, captain, forward passer and punter, been knocked out in the opening moments of the second half Mercer had scored one touchdown following two fumbles n the first half and the Moccasins had forward passed themselves all around the Baptists. the half ending inoppor- tunely with the Moccasins on the five-yard line. After Cate was ka- yoed, however. the team lost it's for ward pass system and the offensive collapsed

Brilliant Work Done This Year
 By Few Pitchers

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-(By Asso- ciated Press )-A1though subjected to heavy bombardment from batsmen during the 1923 season, pitchers in both major league recorded an un- usual list of brilliant performances.
 Sad Sam Jones of the Worlds champion Yankees and Howard Ehmke of the Boston Red Sox ac- counted for the most spectacular box work of the season. Within single week in September both blanked the Philadelphia Athletics without hit or a run, 29 men facing Jones while 2S stepped to the plate against Ehmke. Then, in their next turns on the mound, both came close to dupli- eating their hitless performances, Jones holding the Red Sox to two hits while Ehmke gave the Yankees one single.
 Jones had the better consecutive bitless inning record, silencing the bats of his opponents for Is 2-3 in- ningS in row.
 Walter Johnson added new laurels to his strike out record by passing the 5000 mark in his sixteenth year of big league service.
 Dazzy Vance, speed ball king of the Brooklyn Dodgers, hung up the seasons strikeout record when he whiffed Is of the New York Giants in 10 innings, grabbed the seasons consecutive winning record with ten straight victories and included a one hit victory over Cincinnati in his work In this game, Vance came within an ace of joining the no-hit class for the only hit off him was made with two out in the ninth.
 Of ftclNt re~11 turned in a one-hit game against Philadelphia, while among the two- hit contests twirled were those by Jones. Vic" Oldridge of the Chicago Cubs; Hugh McQuillan of the Giants and Bryan Harris of the Philadelphia Athletics. Osborne and Keen of the Cubs, combined to hold Cincinnati to one hit, the former permitted one bingle in seven innings when he was relieved in favor of Keen who held the Reds hitless for the remaining two innings.
 Grover Cleveland Alexander, Chi cago, Cubs added new 1ustre to his record by pitching 54 consecutive in- nings without issuing a base on balls. while Stanley Coveleskie of Cleveland held his opposition score less for 27 straight innings.
 Unusual performances were those of Jimmy Ring, of the Philadelphia Phil1ies whow as beaten by the Chi cago Cubs, 3 to l. althouhg he famed 12 men, and of Friday, Washington recruit. who walked 14 in a game with the Chicago White Sox. The lat ter figure is two below the record number of passes issued by one pitch CT in a game.
 Adolfo Luque, Cuban star of the Cincinnati Reds, turned in an iron man" performance, beating the Bos- ton Braves in two games of double header.

ALABAMA SCRUBS WILL PLAY HERE
Crimson Reserves Clash With WoodlaWn High Saturday
 At Redwood Field

UNIVERSITY. Ala, Oct. 25.-(Spe- cial.) .)-Three football elevens from the University of Alabama will be in action this coming Saturday-the rats" at the university, the varsity at Mobile against Spring Hill, and the Alabama reserves in Birmingham against Woodlawn High school.
 As a rule, the scrubs of a varsity eleven find nothing but hard knocks in their schedule every year, and this game Saturday will give the reserves pleasant afternoon. The scrubs usually toll on, sometimes receiving none of the credit for the showing of a football eleven, but always the subjects of hard blows.
 Football fans at the Magic City will see an eleven in action this com ing Saturday that would represent many small colleges win pride. All are men who have showed much promise at Denny field, while the great majority of them starred In their high school days. Every one fore the season started, and all are well trained in the Wade system.
 The backfield will be light but ex- tremely fast. Tom Anderson, former Central High star, will direct the team on the field. Tom has been ab-. sent from varsity practice a great deal this year because of injuries, but Is now ready for heavy work. Jimmy Johnston, a back who made the Syracuse trip, and former rus caloosa star, will essay the fullback role. As a freshman last year, John- ston was mighty good. Salmon Is a halfback who is extremely fast, and his side-partner, Hussey, is almost as fast. These four men will not aver <ge 150 pounds, but have speed to burn.
 The ends on the reserve eleven will be taken care of by Spark Plug" Hinton and Elmer Dany. Hinton played a few minutes in the Sewanee- Alabama game. while Dany is let ter man of last year. They are not quite up to varsity material but yet able to work well against smaller team. The tackles will go to Bill Thomas, 8 Bessemer boy. and Lacy Brakfield. The guards will go to Haas and Martin, two freshmen play CTS of last year, and center to MCr- phree. These men will give the line an average of about 160 pounds, but the weights belle the aggressiveness of the men.
 This is the same eleven that few
 weeks ago defeated the freshman team by a 14 to score. The men have ali the knowledge of the game that has been taught the varsity, and are able to show lots of dash in their work. A good estimate of their po- tential strength can be had from the fact that they beat the freshman team 14 to 0. who In turn beat the Jacksonville Normal team by Ss 10 score.

Hickman has also been out Cf the game for some time on account of injuries in the first days of the season, but should be ready for duty this afternoon. "Slick" Vincent will start at half, being one of the most dependable backs on the squad and having done some excellent work during the season so far. Ed Smith will prcb- ably start at the other half. with Bob Sudderth and Elmer Roberts substitute backfield men to be used during the game.
 The game with Cahaba will be a hard-fought encounter, according to expectations, and a large portion of the student body is expected to ac- company the team.
