ENSLEY TO PLAY CHATTANOOGA AT WOOD THURSDAY
Yellow Jackets Rounding Into Shape For Saturday
 Morning Game

Ensley high will meet a tough op- ponent Saturday morning at 10 o'clock at Redwood field when she runs across the path of the Central High school of Chattanooga. The Tennes- see boys last year held the Phillips High team here to tie and are equally as strong this year. Under rRusty' Cornelius, former Georgia Tech star. the team has rounded into good form. They have strong line and a good bunch of punters which is almost all any ordinary team needs. They also have q good drop-kfcker. If they can hold their oponents and punts far in the pinches their goal is in no danger.
 Coach Bryan of Ensley has been scrimmaging his team every day get ting ready for the battle. He will send the squad through another scrimmage this afternoon. Getting them in shape. His team came through the Disque High game with few injuries although several are slightly hurt. However, he will not be hampered by a sick list when he starts the game although Archie Dun lap, promising little end, sustained a broken nose Wednesday afternoon in scrimmage.
 Coach Ryan is building his team this year around lone quarter of let lCI IISiA.LDWeTSp captain duu Dull- back; Vines, halfback; Faircloth. guard; and Hardy. center; are the only men of last years eleven to re- turn this year. However, the squad looks promising and the line now is surprising the coach, even, with it's speed. Although not husky crew the team that will represent Ensley may make up for it by speed.
 Zeigler and McGonage have been showing up well at ends while Inman and Walker have been going good for the flank position. At tackles May hew and Pup" Fayet seem to be lead ing the field pursued closely by Sis sion and Whorton.
 At guards Barnett, Scott and Fair cloth seem to nose and Clark and Coleman have also been getting in some good work. Center will likely be taken care of by Hardy with Fair cloth as second string pivot man. Me- Dowell has been running well at quarter but Johnston also has been working at varsity quarter quite a bit. Four fast men are running at halves in Vines. Marston. Pearson and Walker. Capt. Lowery and Tuech are putting up hot race for full back.
 The squad will be entertained Thursday by the Ensley Kiwanis club which is taking an active interest in the Yellow Jackets this year.
