BLUES IN AUBURN FOR BATTLE WITH TIGERS SATURDAY.
twin Has Worked Over Run- hing Defense of
 Team

Coach Erwin and nine Athletic club basketball players leave Birming- ham Saturday morning for Auburn, where they will meet the Plainsmen cagesters Saturday night in one of the really important games on the Blues schedule. The clubbers are primed for tho game, having spent the latter part of tho week polish ing up for their first tilt of the 1923 season with the Tiger basketeers.
 The following men were taken to Auburn by Coach Hutsell: Mandy, Floyd, Shores. forwards. Hahn. stubbs. Bryan, centers; Afford, Montgomery, Laughinhouse, guards.
 The Blues have played one hard game this week. and won it, defeat ing the Camp Benning outfit in a bers showed form in that game. and are expecte< to be in great shape against Auburn Saturday night.
 Running Defensive off
 In the Camp Benning game. the Blues showed up well in all depart ments of the game except one, be- ing somewhat off form in their run ming defense. Beneath the baskets, Ervin's men fought like Tigers. and guarded closely and effectively.
 Erwin has been drilling his men all week in the art of breaking up team york of the opposing quint, and intercepting passes. The Blues running defense is expected to show to much better advantage in the Au- burn game than it did against Camp Benning.
 The team that will probably start against Auburn is a follows: Mandy and Floyd, forwards; Hahn, center; Afford and Montgomery, guards: Erwin will probably use every man on his squad against Auburn, but the above five will more than likely start the game off.
 Tigers Have Hard Luck
 Coach Hustell, himself a former B. A. C. athletic director, has a good team at Auburn this year, although the Tigers have had hard luck and lost some of their close games, by a single point in couple of in- stances.
 Captain Harrison will more than likely be able too play much of the time against the Blues, after being out of the game with a broken hand for several, weeks. Fred Hahn, a Birmingham boy, will see service at one forward in Saturday nights game against the Blues.
 After playing at Auburn this Sat- urday night, the #ues and Tigers meet on the B. A c. court next Saturday night, in one of Birming- hams feature basketball games for 1923

IKE a voice from the past, h

" IKE a voice from the past, has
 come word from Tommy Tomp- - kins, befreckledi and jovial matchmaker of the Birmingham Attn letic club. Almost a month ago, Tommy, in charge of Claude Wilson, Dixie flyweight champion. left the Magic City for Paterson, N. J., and Sall points east The mission of the two was gold and glory to be gleaned from the arenas of the. big fight cities up east.
 For a long time, nothing has been heard of Wilson and Tompkins, other than the fact that Tommy has been trying to land matches for Claude. sA-l now, has come word that Claude has fought twice recently, winning both bouts by knockouts.
 In a communication to Roy Cohen, chairman of the boxing committee at the B.. A. C., Tommy stated that Claude has won his two fights up east, and that he is hopeful of addi- tional honors in eastern fighting circles.
 A week ago from last Tuesday night, Claude stopped Willie Delmar in two rounds, in a bout staged at the Paterson Sporting club.
 Thursday night Wilson Knocked out Willie Herman in four rounds at the IdIerSOn scluD. !.
 If Claude can dupliate this feat few times, he should have obtained firm foothold on the ladder to the tor, and. rung by rung, should ad vance right on up toward the top.
 Dave Evans. who is probably
 as intimate with Tommy Tomp-
 kins' affairs as any one man in
 town, stated Friday that he, like
 everyone else, is in the dark as to
 when Tommy and Champion Will
 son expect to return home. When
 the prodigals return, fandom will
