Stock Prices Moue To Higher Ground

NEW YORK, Nov. 1o.-Stock prices moved to higher grounds this week in seeming disregard of a series of unfavorable foriegn developments. Domestic trade news was of a con structive market nature including a continuation of million cars a week" freight loading. higher prices for cop per. brass, zinc. rubber and refined sugar. reductions in crude oil produc- ton and gasoline stock on hand, and another quota of favorable earnings statements, particularly by motor and motor accessories companies.
 Cotton futures scored to the highest levels in three years on further in- dications of sohrtage in this year 8 crop. Prices broke badly on Friday, however on news of the Bavarian uprising. making partial recovery on Saturday.
 Further weakness of demand ster- ling, which dropped approximately 9 cents below last weeks closing levels to S437ss, was attributed to variety of causes. These included the un- favorable political developm ents in Germany transfer of balances from London to New York through specuia- tive, fear of a change in British fiscal policy. heavy purchases of dollar bill here including the payment on Bri- tish war debt and purchases of cotton by British importers. The continental rate reacted in sympathy.
 Money rates continued relatively easy in reflection of the return of funds to New York.

Curb Trend Follows
 Other Market Groups

NEW YORK. Nov. 1o-The market on the curb exchange during the week travelled on about the same lines as were followed in other se- curity trading groups, many stocks moving up to higher levels, while few declined. Industrial issues came into prominence, feature being Glen Alden coal, which rose about points to a new high record on buying in anticipation of the stock being placed on fixed 6 per cent dividend basis In December. There were fairly large transactions in southern coal and iron without material change.
 Motor shares, which had been un- der pressure until early In the week, were also active and strong; Peer less moving up about 5 points and in the later dealings Durant Motor came into prominence. There was supecial movement ip New Mexico land which ranged from s1s to 4Hs on large trading.
 The petroleum group reflected con- fidence in the trade outlook. but most of the trading was influenced by special developments. Continental oil ranged from S7 to 40 and Mutual oil moved up from l0M to 10% on buying based on arrangements Tor closer relations between those com panies. Ohio oil was one of the strongest of the Standard Oil group. advancing points. Prairie oil moved up from 1S2 to 1s6, but was under pressure yesterday and lost part Of it's gain.

Japan Begins Buying Steel From America

NEW YORK, Nov. 10-New buying in the steel market was compara- lively light this week, the most con spicuious business being an award by the Japanese embassy for a con- siderable amount of black sheets and corrugated and plain galvanized sheets, There were good prospects for future busin ess, however, espe- cialiy in the way of railroad equip ment and from automobil manu- facturers and structural concerns, put there was a tendency to await price deyelopments despite a show of firm ness by the manufacturers as to fig ures for the first quarter of next year. Pig iron continued quiet, With production further decreased and prices held steady.
 Copper was more active and firmer. Besides improvement in wrought cop per and brass and bronze products, there was a better demand for the unwrought material and more expert interest shown early in the week. It Is believed, however. that a well sustained, if not a further improve ment in demand will be necessary to prevent accumulation. Sales for do- nestle and foreign account since the beginning of November are estimated at around e5,ooO,ooo pounds.
 Tin ruled higher on an active de- mand from dealers and operators, stimulated by the sharp rise in Lon don and a firm statistical position.
 Lead was firm and unchanged. De- mand was fair and well distributed and large producers are well booked for November.
 Zinc, while somewhat unsettled was in better consuming demand, mostly for nearby shipment.
 Anthony continued its upward movement. Supplies are light and little Is being offered from China.

Lamar Team Loses To
 Greenuille High, 25-O

GREENvILLE. Ala, Nov. 10.- Especial. )-Coach Hovater's chargers of the Butler High took in Mont gomery County High eleven of Banner here by a score of 25 to o. The locals outclassed the Montgomery boys in playing of the game In all its branches and never was the ball in a dangerous position for Greenville. The locals netted 16 first downs to the visitors 5. Greenville carried the ball considerably more yardage than did Ramer in spite of the fact the Greenville was pebalize several times for being off sides.
 Greenville's touchdowns came in the frat, second, and third periods of the game. line bucks, three times by Burt and Wesley and one off tackle play by Bryan. The prettiest play of the game came in the third quarter when Baby" Stabler threw a beauti- ful pass to Williams who took 1t down in grand style and therefor brought thunderous applause from the specta- tors. Other substantial gains were registered by Greenville via the air route.
 Murrell, Ramer's fullbatk. and Cook, quarterback, were Ramer's star players and these were the only men that gave the Greenville le players any trouble. This pair of backfield men staged two beautiful forward passes in the last quarter for 20 yards each.

AL CLEMENS MAY BE ALL-SOUTHERN
Capstone Students Think Crimson Captain Has
 Good Chance @

UNIVERSITY, Ala, Nov. 10.-(Spe- cial.)-Is the Crimson Tide of Ala bama to be honored by having one the mythical all-southern football team? Yes-say students at the Cap stone. t-..
 In the eyes of the Capstone, Capt. Al Clemens is without doubt one of the best, if not the best, ends in Dixleland. Not only has Captain Al led his team through 8 hot campaign this year, but he. himself. has been a prime factor in the victories earned by Bama this year and in that memorable tie against Georgia Tech.
 This is Captain AIS last year at 'Bama. It is the second time that he has been honored by his teammates in being selected to lead them. And there is little doubt left in the minds of everyone who has seen him play that he is going through the greatest year of his gridiron career.
 Captain Al first came into promi- hence this year at Syracuse when 'Bama was defeated 23-0 by that eleven. After the bame. 1t was found that one first down had been made around left end. It was found that almost one-third of the tackles had been made by Clemens. And those who saw him in action that day said he was one of the best ends ever to trod on that field. Truly, they see some great ends there.
 Against Sewanee, 1t was Clemens who figured greatly in the defeat of the Pfger. And against Tech, in the town where mythical eievens are chosen for Dixie, Captain Clemens rose to his greatest heights and played his most spectacular game.
 o O O Is Not Spectacular.
 Never a spectacular player, always a hard worker and consistently bril- liant, Captain Clemens will be sorely missed next year. If he does not make all-southern thls year, some sport writers should blush in shame.
 Are there any other Bama men who should make the mythical eleven? That's rather a question Buckler, Jones and Camp, three out standing men on the line, should re- ceive several mentions, but 1t is doubtful whether either will make the team. That also goes for Propst, who was mentioned so often for cen ter and guard last year. The first three men are sophs and playing their first year of varsity ball. Men tions this year, and if improvement continues, a berth next year-thats s what the Capstone thinks.
 There is not an outstanding back at Alabama this year. Gillis and Hubert, some say, but they have not shown enough for a berth in the face of such good backs as there are in Dixie today. Neither one has the all- around ability that Wycoff, Kirwan, Fletcher, Jones, Covington and others have. However, no punter will be able to say he Is better than Gillis nor will very many fullbacks stand out far ahead of Hubert. And Baty deserves some mention for his won derful defensive games this year.
 Alabama Is asking but little this year on the mythical all-southern eleven, but the little they ask is cer- tainly wanted.

Golf Ball Reduced

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10-To pre- vent golfers from making long dis tGnce drives, the United States Golf association at it's meeting in January plans to reduced the weight of the golf ball. according to Ed Tufts, president of the Southern California Golf ass ociation.
 England will take steps along ths same line If the change Is effected in the United States, stated James G.. Anderson. prominent eastern golfer and authority on the game.
 Extremely long drives are common now and 1t is hoped to reduce the weight of the ball from 1-30 to 1-2S The reason given for the change Is that it now takes too large course for the long drivers, as property val ues are going up all over the country. If the distances were cut down smaller course would suffice.

Eu.' Scott May Be Benched ToBreak LongT ime Record

NEW YORK, Nov. l0.-Deacon Ev- erett Scott, shortstop of the New York, Yankees and proprietor of the trolley wire" throwing arm. may be laid off for just one game next spring fer the deliberate purpose of snap ping his record for continuous serv- ice.
 Scott has not failed to take part fin scheduled game since June 20, 1916, and his record at the close of the An -erlcan league season a few weeks ago was .140 games without a day s absence from the lineup.
 When Scott was honored with at tention from government officials during tho ceremonies at the Wash ,ington Senator's ballyard this year, as he was about to start his 1000th consecutive game the occasion waH not altogether enjoyable for him. The record became an old man of the sea. It worried him and as the season went along, Scotts work slumped slightly. although not enough to warrant his being benched.
 The Yankee management is pom dering the question whether a days lay-off and a new start would be helpful to Scott next year, as 1t would relieve hIm of worry about the pro- longation of his streak. He has now set . record which Is not approached by any other achievement of the kind. George Pinckney of the Brooklyn American association and National league clubs played in 577 consecu- tive games in six seasons, ending in 1890. This Is the next best to Scott's record to be found in the archives of the major leagues.
 Scott was named Trolley Wire" by Wilbert Robinson, mapager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, in his amazement at the straight throws Scott made from his position at shortstop to first base In the world series between the Dodgers and Red Sox. Scott was with the Red Sox and cut off many apparently safe hits by the accuracy of his arm, even though throwing from almost impossible angles.
 That bal, travels on a trolley wire straight to the bag when Scott throws" Ropinson said.
