VETERAN CHICAGO GOLFER WINS WESTERN OPEN TOURNAMENT
ZEV AND PAPYRUS
 TRAIN FOR MATCH

NEW YORK, Oct. 12-Papyrds, slightly la1lcd in his near front an kle, and Zev, the American cham pion three-year- in great condi- ton, will run again Saturday in fur ther preparation for their match race of October 20 at Belmont Park They were worked easily Friday morning, with few people on hand to watch and neither went fast enough to warrant any clocklng by the amateur timekeepers along the rail. q
 Although Basil Jarvis, trainer of Papyrus, said Thursday that the British horse had become sore in one ankle, no limp was perceptible' to the watchers as the track side and Jarvis hope that the, trouble wasae just a passing soreness seems to have been Justified. The slight injury to Papyrus is believed to have been due to the hard condition tf the Belmont track. Some of the regular attend ants at the races In the metropolitan district regard the Belmont track as a dangerous one for any horse, even American thoroughbreds accustomed to racing, on dirt instead of grass. The reason is that the Belmont track furface is not kept as soft as the top of some other tracks and is re- ferred to by some as the concrete road

ENSLEY TO PLAY CHATTANOOGA AT
 RICKWOOD TODAY
Game Scheduled To Start At 10 O'Clock Saturday
 Morning

The Central High school eleven of Chattanooga arrived in the Magic City Friday night ready for their game Saturday morning at 10 o'clock with the. Eensley High school team at Redwood field. Coach Rusty" Cornelius brought along 19 husky Chattanooga performers. The visitors looked to be strong outfit and have made good showings in their early games. So far this season they have tallied 71 points, while their They have a good defensive machine and a fast set of backs.
 Roy Estes is one of the best men of the Chattanooga team and was one of the big factors in the great game played here last year with the Central High school team. He is a triple threat man and an excellent dropkicker. He missed a drop kick on Central High from the 50-yard line last year by inches and scared the local aggregation with his long runs.
 B. T. (Choo-choo) Cahoon, husky tackle, made the all-city selection for the past two years in Chattanooga and is a stellar performer. He will game this morning to stop the rushes of the Ensley backs.
 The Ensley team will start the game with their squad in fairly good shape. Coach Bryan has been run ming the Yellow Jackets hard for their battle with Chattanooga, and has developed a fast team, both line and backfield. His biggest handicap Is their lightness, but this can be over balanced by their speed.
 The probable line-ups for the two teams follow:
 Chattanooga: Williams, left end: Cahoon, left tackle; Hunt. left guard l; McCormack, center; Huffmeyer, right guard; Mathis, right tackle; H. Boyd, right end; Estes, quarter; E. Boyd, half; Fridell, half; Mize, fullback.
 The other men on the squad are:
 Cate, Mosedale, Brandford, Nunna- maker, Nicholson, Henderson, Ashby and Smythe.
 Ensley: Zeigler and McGanong. ends; Mayhew and Fayet, tackles; Barnett. and Scott, guards; Hardy. center; Mcdowell, quarter; Vines and Marston, halves, and Captain Lowery. fullback.

PHILLIPS DEFEATS ANNISTON ELEVEN BY B TO 0 SCORE

The Phillips High school Crimsons met stiff opposition Friday afternoon when they tackled the Anniston High school on Redwood field. but their heavier team cvercame the Anniston aggregation and the locals won, 33 to 0. The visitors battled from the tlrst to last, but the rushes of the speedy Crimson backs bewildered them.
 The Phillips aggregation put over two touchdowns in the first quarter when Holder went through the line Tor the first count and Grill hurled pass to Sanford, whC raced across for the second. It was prettily exc cuted play and netted 40 yards in all.
 The Anniston eleven battled the locals on nearly even terms in the second quarter and a couple of penal tles in row, with pretty run by G. Potter on fake play, staved off the Crimson march temporarily. E. Potter made a pretty return of a punt fer 20 yards in this quarter. also. Late in the quarter the Phillips team threatened when Grill broke through for 20 yards, but the whistle ended the half before further damage could be done.
 In the early part of the second half Grill plunged over the line for the third touchdown and Holder kicked SCdif dS iic ulu Ol lHe SeCOnu IOuCn- down, making the score 20 to o. Mo Arthur went ever with the next counter in the fourth quarter and ran the score to 27, while Gravlee's counter late in the last quarter fin- ished up the 33.
 The Anniston combination threat ened late in the last half and were in easy scoring position once when B. Potter hurled a pass to G. Potter, who was clear. However he fumbled the pass and lost the Anniston teams only chance Of scoring.
 The visitors showed uncanny abil- lty to follow the ball. and although they fumbled quite bit, recovered in pretty fashion. They also recov-. cred several Phillips fumbles. Elan nigan. substitute back, was the of fensive star of the game for the An nlston viewpoint
 Holder Grill and McArthur were the offensive stars of the Phillips team.

MAJOR GAMES TO BE PLAYED TODAY
 BY TEAMS OF EAST.
Army And Notre Dame To Occupy The Spotlight
 Today

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-CBy Asso- ciated Press. )-More than score of gridiron scraps will occupy the at tention of eastern college football enthusiasts tomorrow. Chief among them will be the annual classic be- tween the West Point Cadets and the Notre Dame warriors from South Bend, Ind.
 From all indications this game. which will be played in Brooklyn, will be test between the army's consistent method of line bucking and smashing and coach Knute Rockne's open play. Both teams have come out victorious in the minor games they have played thus far this yean and tomorroW's game will be the first real test either has faced.
 The Big Three circles. the hackers of Harvard, Yale and Princeton, seem little worried. Harvard will take on the Middlebury team, which last week played a tie game with Union. Yale probably will face stiffer oppo- sition from the University of Georgia and considerable interest has been aroused in this inter sectional con- flict. Georgia scored a 20to-6 vic- tory over Oglethorpe last week, while Yale swamped another bunch of southern players in the shape of University of North Carolina, s to O.. The Tiger squad goes into action against deOTSGlOWi.
 Two eastern colleges will invade middle western territory. Carnegie Tech will play the University of Chi- cago, which brought victory from further west last week, when Col orado was defeated 10 to 0. Colgate will meet Ohio state in Columbus, where considerable of a struggle is expected. Colgate piled up 55 points against Niagara's zero last week, while the Columbus aggregation took 24 while Ohio Wesleyan was mak- ing '.
 Coach Percy Haughton's Columbia team will play Wesleyan in this city. Columbia was unable to score against Amherst last week, and it was re- ported today that Dutch" Pease, star quarterback, had been injured. At Syracuse there will be another sectional game when the university in that city meets the University of Alabama. Syracuse defeated William and Mary, 61 to 3, last week, while the Southern eleven piled up 56 against their neighbors in Mississippi, who didn't score.
 Annapolis will meet the West Vir- gffifa Wesleyan team. It is gener- ally conceded the navy will have lit tie difficulty in winning, although the West Virginia Methodists de- feated Allegheny last week, 2S to 0.
 Several good games are scheduled in Pennsylvania, including Swarth more vs. Pennsylvania, at Philadel- phia; Lafayette vs. Franklin and Marshall, at Easton; Pitts burg vs. West Virginia, at Pittsburg; Wash ington and Jefferson vs. Brown, at Washington, Ia.

JEFFCO WINS IN GREAT BATTLE AT FRIDAY, 60

The Jefferson County Wildcats won their game from the Jones Valley Brownies Friday afternoon at Boyles by the score of to 0. It was one of the hardest fought games ever seen on the Jefferson county field and would have done credit to mapy college teams. With the exception of the sensation 65-yard run by Nc Collock, after he intercepted a for ward pass, the game was a see-saw affair with neither team having an advantage. McColloch's run was through the entire Jones Valley team and scored the only touchdown of the game.
 It was an even battle after the first quarter with each team hold Ing the other for downs and neither being able to make much headway against its opponents. The Brownies finally resorted to forward passing, but failed to make any headway at that.
 For Jones Valley, Captain Allgood, at center; Hardy at right tackle; Lovett, at quarter. and Edney at half were the stars of the game.
 For Jeffeo, Dismukes, center; Bar ton. end; Marsh, tackle, and Taylor, in the backfield, were the outstand- ing players.

SHADES-CAHABA
 WINNER, 56 TO c

The Shades-Cahaba Mountineers swamped the Oak Grove High Friday afternoon by score of 56 to Q. Sumpt Clarke's aggregation fairly outclassed their opponents and scored almost at random. The teams were evenly matched in weight, but the Mountaineers showed the affect of better coaching and speedier work.
 The stars of the game were the Hunter brothers and the two David sons, for Shades -Cahaba. Carl Hunter and Willis Davidson scored two touchdowns each, while the others were portioned around, one each to the other backs.
 Last week the Shades Cahaba lost to Bessemer, but Coach Clarke had had no chance to do any work with the squad. Friday they showed much better offensive and machine like play.
