.PantherS Haue A
 Tough Battle On Next Saturday

After defeating the Majors of Millsaps college in a hard battle in Jackson Thursday the Birmingham- Southern Panther returned home none the worse for wear and pre- pared to settle down for business before meeting the strong Mercer team at Macon next Saturday.
 Coaches Brown and Wingo will be- gin to work their men hard Monday after day of rest Saturday and the team should be in excellent condition for the Georgia Baptists in spite of it's crippled condition during the lat ter part of the week. With the weather permitting hard workout will be in order on the opening day of the week and some afternoons of work will be in order the remaining days as a number of defects should be done away with by the next en-
 Captain Floss" Candy, although making the trip to Jackson, was able to play only a part of the game, but should be in good condition by the close of the week as should John Candy and P. Howell, other regular eds of the Panther squad. Douglass | iPrichett, varsity guard, should also be fit for the game next Saturday and IS no other casualties have been reported D to the present time the complete lineup should take the
 
 the week.
 Aubrey Miller was easily the out standing back on the field Thursday, scoring the only touchdown for Bir- mingham- Southern by going through the line for three yards after a blocked punt. A punt blocked be- hind the Gold and Black gold line gave Millsaps the only score for the game.
 The touchdown made by the Ma jors was followed by several bril- liant dashes down the field by the Panther team, although none of the advances brought in a score for the featured the offense of the Partners, several passes gaining more than 10 yards, each being completed during the game.
 Yielding, at end, played good game for the Partners, being shifted to that position during the time that Candy was ou of the game and, al- though light, will make good man for the Gold and Black backfield dur ing the season.
 The game with Mercer will prob ably be one of the hardest on the Panther schedule for the remainder of the season and no time will be lost through delay in preparation work starting Monday afternoon. Due to weather conditions and game in almost the middle part of the week the Sunshine Slopers have had a three-day rest which will go far toward putting them in condition for the game next week.
 4 number of the reserve squad has been promoted to the varsity Thomp- son and Malloy playing in a good part of the game against the Majors, and the squad of Cubs has been still fur ther increased by the addition of sev- eral late season candidates who are getting in training for class football, which will start at the close of the San Snn

Notre Danes Slaughter Of Princeton Is Outstanding
 Feature

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-A long es- tablished precedent was broken Sat- urday when not single upset devel- oped in the long list of weekend col lege gridiron engagements.
 To be sure, several of the favored elevens won their games by margins greater than were generally expected, while several others fell somewhat short of the predictions, but in every instance the favored team left it's respective playing field bearing tho traditional trophy of gridiron tri- umph, a battered football.
 Noteworthy among the happenings of that unusual day in football were Notre Dame's slaughtering of Prince ton, 25 to ?; CornelPs one-sided win over Colgate, 34 to I; Harvard's diff ficult to victory of Holy Cross; Army's remarkable comeback, 28 to 6, against Auburn; Penn States 21 to swamping of the Navy; Dart mouths 27 to 2 revenge upon Yer mont, and West Virginia's high SCOT ing display in rolling up S1 points on Marshall.
 Clever strategy on the part Of coaches and brilliant individual and combination work by players, partic- ularly in their successful employment of the forward pass, contributed largely to the success of the victorl- ous elevens.
 Effective tactical schemes were shown by Knute Rockne of Notre Dame in the Princeton game. and by Coach Gil Dobie of Cornell in the Col gate contest at Ithaca.
 Rockne, through the Notre Dame West Point engagement one week ago had impressed customers and particularly the Princeton scouts with the strength of Notre Dames forward passing attack. And knowing Prince ton would be guarding against aerial, Rockne ordered his eleven to open sweeping attack. In half dozen plays of this type the Hoosiers were over for a touchdown, and thereafter both his rushing and his passing game proved effective against Coach Roper's team.
 The reverse development proved equally effective in the Cornell-Col- gate game, for Colgate came to Itha- ca carefully prepared to check Cor nelTs strong running attack, cnly to find Dobie employing an overhead game of both accuracy and deception.
 Harvards failure to soundly trounce Cleo O'Donnells Holy Cross eleven came as bitcer disappoint- ment to many Harvard supporters. The latter, stung by the recent 6-to-0 tie with Middlebury, expected the Crimson would offer much superior brand of play and the majority looked for a winning margin or al least three touchdowns against the Worcester college. Visions of a possible defeat when the Crimson meets Dartmouth next Saturday now are entertained.
 Smythe, the Army quarterback, proved the outstanding figure in the West Point-Auburn game with two sensational runs, one of more than 70 yards and another of more than 90 yards to touchdowns.

Howard To Start Work For Union Game Saturday

With only one victory to their credit for the season and anxious for nor the Howard Bulldogs will get down in earnest Monday afternoon in preparation for their game with Union university of Jackson, Tenn. ].
 However, this does not necessarily mean that the Bulldogs have ar easy game ahead of them. On the other hand Union has turned out first rate teams in the last years and thls one will be no exception, as reports from the Tennesseans have it that Coaeh Joe Guyon has another hot shot one. Their holding of Alabama to a 12 to 0 count attest this fact.
 Coach Guyon has alme st an entire team of veterans returning from last years eleven, the team that cane to the Magic City and so disastrously defeated the Alabama Baptists the tune of 20 to '.
 With any kind of decent weather this week, Coaches Cope and Dob bins ought to be able to put their charges through four good days of practice, ironing out the kinks and going over the weak spots.
 Coach Cope expressed himself Sat-
 
 the showing of the Bulldogs made at Jackson, Miss. Friday against the Mississippi collegianS. The tale is told of hard luck game,' where the brave Ala bamians had outfought and played the Baptists of Mississippi to lose in the last two minutes of play on a brilliant return of punt by Parks, Choctaws' quarterback.
 In Fridays game the Bulldogs showed a world of improvement, pos sibly the best work that the team team had the prospects of the proper drive and certainly showed it's de- fensive power by holding Mississippi on the eight-yard line for downs.
 The only serious mishap of the Jackson scrap was the reopening of Bo Brindley's wound, but a week ought to bring the brilliant center's s leg around in shape for Saturday s conflict. Several others of the squad had slight mishaps, but none of a serious nature.
 Ham Stevens return to the game helped the team considerably and the quarterback of the Baptists ought to be in his prime against Union Satur- day. Last year Hams home was at Jackson, but since then his family has moved from there.
 A light workout will be the order of the day Monday for the Copers, with scrimmages following Tuesday and Wednesday.
 As yet the victorious Bullpups have no game for the weekend. This third team of Copers has been mopping up this year, so to speak, having an- nexed three scalps from the best high schools in the state with none of these scoring on them.

Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin And Chicago Have
 Clean Record

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-Four Western conference football teams emerged from Saturdays gridiron contests with their records unscratched, while two other teams which had been regarded as Big Ten champion ship contenders, were practically eliminated.
 Michigan. Illinois, Wisconsin and Chicago are tied at the end of the second week of conference com petition with one victory each and no defeats. Illinois shattered most of Iowa's hopes of championship honors yesterday, while Michigans Buckeyes with chances for first honors 1essened.
 While Michigan and Illinois have demonstrated the most strength to date. Wisconsin has developed by leaps and bounds since opening it's strated it's strength yesterday by smothering Indiana 52-0 in its first conference contest. Chicago. which also engaged in it's first Big Ten game, fought a hard battle to de- feat Northwestern 13 to 0, but Coach Stagg this year is developing his team slowly and apparently hopes that the maximum of strength will be reached later in the season.
 Chicago yesterday scored their first touchdown after only five minutes of playing, and the second after advancing for so yards through the Purple line In the meantime, however, the Maroons had several narrow qreaks, managing at one time to kick out of danger from their one-foot line, while at another Captain McElwain of the Purple got away to a 40-yard end run that the Maroons stopped with difficulty.

 Illinois Wins Sensational Victory.
 Illinois 9 to 6 victory over Iowa was probably the most sensational conference contest of the day. The Illini, which have shown their strength on offensive play in nom conference contests, exhibited mysterious defense against Iowa when the game seemed slipping from their grasp and the Hawkeyes were tasting what seemed almost certain victory. Illinois made three points through Britton's almost phenomenal field goal, but the Indians were chased all over the field by the prancing Hawkeyes and when Iowa scored early in the fourth period. glimmering. 1t was then that the Illini fought. An aerial attack was started with a rain of passes that took the ball down the field to the Hawkeye two-yard line. where Grange, the great find of Zuppke, spanned the six feet necessary to give Illinois victory.
 Michigan played true to dope in winning from Ohio State 23 to 0 by launching an aerial attack that dazed the Buckeyes and left them almost helpless at times.- The Wolverines varied this with bril- liant game of straight football in the second period that also had the Ohio team guessing. The brunt of the Ohio offense fell to big Hoge Workman, but he was not given the best of support.
 Wisconsin's 52 to 0 victory over Indiana was a surprise even to Wis consin fans and showed a great de- of the Badgers in the last week.

SIMPSON TO PLAY SHADES CAHAHA

After scoreless tie with the strong Shelby county combination at Columbiana Friday the Purple Ter nado of Simpson Tech will begin a week of preparation for a battle with ShadesCah.ba High on the Shades Cahaba gridiron next Friday.
 Practically the same team will meet the team from Shades -Cahaba as entered the fray against Colum- biana Friday with the exception of McLane, who was hurt during the game and with the possible exception of one of the halves, Little Slick Vim cent being in condition tC begin regular practice with the team next week.
 Simpson easily outfought the Shelby County boys during the en- tire game, gaining more than twice al much territory, although the game was more of a bunting battle than an encounter featuring straight football. Practically no ground was gained through the line of the Tor nado and only one long run featured the game for Columbiana.

Cohn Says Race Was No Indication Of Merit

PARIS, Oct. 21.-(By Associated Press.)-Jefferson D. Cohn a promi- nent race horse owner, comments in the Paris Evening Telegra today that matches like that between Zev and Papyrus are useless as indicating the merits of two hosres.
 "Sach matches" said MT, Cohn, "are not sport and can only be re- gretted by real lovers of horses. If Belmont Park would make arrange ments for real race and give one years notice of it, there would be found plenty of horses on this side of the ocean capable of crossing and competing on more equal terms with the best products of the United States"
