He is an all-round athlete and was awarded the Porter loving cup for being the best all-round athlete in 1919. AL though small in stature Scott proved to be a wonderful asset in the back field. His broken field running and defensive ability was superb.
 After being a four letter man at Bessemer he was a four-year letter man in football and baseball and was captain of the diamond team in 1922.
 Doe" Ray, though having another year of his four-year allotment on the Tiger varsity, has already report ed for duty as coach of the Aggie team at Hamilton, Ala. Ray was a guard of no mean ability. He grad uated in veterinary medicine last June.
 Noisy" Grisham halls from Athens, Ala, and will coach at the Jackson County High school at Scootsboro, Ala. He was a tackle and running mate of Baby Pearce at this inn portant line post for three years. He is an important cog in the for ward bulwark of the past three sea- sons. He was also letter man on the track team working in the weight events.
 Coach" Warren from Coal City, St. Clair county, Ala, and a product of the St. Clair County High school at Pell City, Ala.
