STIMULUS WINS
 PLMLICO STAKES
Fields Greatest Two Year. Old Leads Field
 Of Eleven Horses

BALTIMORE, Nov. 7.-Marshall Fields Stimulus, under a perfect ride by Harry Thurber, today led a field of eleven of the finest two-year-olds in America across the finish line in the Pimlico Futurity and besides mak- ing himself a prominent candidate for champion youngster of the season, en- riched his owner by $55,900. The time for the mile was :39 4-5.
 Star Lore, owned by William Zeig- Ter, Jr., and rated in the field, was second, taking the place from H. P. Whitney's Candy Kid. Sunny Man, the favorite, under the silks of W. S. Kill mer, tired at the end after leading the field most of the way and took fourth money.
 Stimulus Sprints
 Stimulus won in a mad sprint for the wMe. Candy Kid, with McAtee up, todk the lead at the start, with Stim- ulus and Star Lore in second and third positions, respectively, they raced in this position all the way to the stretch, while Sunny Man and Blue Warbler moved up sharply. Going around the club house turn there was consider able humping, from which Sunny Man and Single Foot suffered most.
 Candy Kid increased his lead to three lengths in the ride down the back stretch, with Stimulus, Star Lore, Sin gle Foot. Sunny Man and Blue Warbler all closely Tapped. A jam occurred on the stretch turn, and Blue Warbler fell, but Jockey Hurn was uninjured.
 Close Finish
 When the turn was reached Candy Kid was seen to shorten his stride and Thurber, on Stimulus, and Ponce on Star Lore, closed with a rush. Both passed Candy Kid, as they neared the wire, but the Whitney colt saved third place, while Sunny Man won fourth position from Single Foot by a head.
 Stimulus victory today was his sev- enth in eight starts but despite his con- sistent wins the field colt was lightly regarded by the batters and paid S2O.SO to win. Star Lore paid $20.2O to place.
 Today's time for the race was within three-fifths of second of the best time for the futurity. About 10000 turf fans saw Stimulus add his name to the list which contains Norwich, Blossom Time, Sally's Alley Beu Butler.

THOUSANDS EXPECTED
 AT 'BAMA HOME COMING
Kentucky Arrives For Big Clash With Crimsons
 At Tuscaloosa Saturday

night at the gymnasium will be dance with Watson's Bellhops playing.
 Back to football. The Tidesmen un- derwent their last workout here this afternoon, a workout that centered on signal-running, passing and bunting and talks by the Crimson mentors. The work of the past few days has included scrimmage against the scrubs and a great deal of plays around end and passes.
 Expect Anything
 One can look for just about anything from the football team at Alabama this year. They have as versatile a squad of backs as any college could want, and these backs can do everything in just the right manner. They can pass and punt and run around ends and through the line for a -you-well. The ends can receive passes and the backs can. And those jack-rabbits can run.
 The same team that two weeks ago defeated Georgia Tech is expected to start against Kentucky. On the other hand, Kentucky is expected to start the same eleven that gave Centre fit last Saturday. Some few changes have been made in the lineup this week, re- ports have it, changes tended to shift Kirwan, a star end, to the backfield so as to give greater drive to the 'Tucky eleven.
 Last Game At Home
 The game Saturday will be the last regular scheduled game for several Crimsons at Denny field. The remain ing two games on 'Bama's schedule are to be played in Birmingham against Centre and Georgia. So from that you can imagine that Langhorne, McClin- tock, Compton, Oliver, Whitaker and Propst are going to make their last game at Denny field one to be remem- bered for years to come.
 The game will start at 2 o'clock. The students will be in their section of the stands early, and there will be plenty of assistance for those hunting seats. Stands on all four corners of the field are expected to be crowded before l 80 o'clock is reached.
 Kentucky arrived in the best of con- dition and said they were ready for the best that Alabama had.
 Probable Line-ups
 While no official announcement has been made, it is believed that the fol lowing line-ups will start:
 Alabama-Caldwell and McClintock, ends; Buckler and Langhorne, Jones and Camp, guards; Propst, center i; Whitaker and Brown, halfbacks; Cap tain Hubert, fullback, and Gillis, quar- terback.
 Kentucky-Kirwan and King, ends i; Rice and Partwood, tackles; Mont gomery and Van Meter, guards; Saucer, center; Gregg, quarter; Tracy and Hughes, halves, and Sanders, fullback.
 The officials will include Kittleman of Wisconsin as referee; Hutchins of Purdue as umpire, and Bagley of Wash ington and Lee as head linesman.

S UNIVERSITY, Ala. Nov. 7-(Spe- cial. )-The Crimson Tide of Alabama, undefeated and unscored upon this sea son, will face Saturday afternoon their seventh opponent of the year at Denny field in the Kentucky Wildcats. It will be the fourth clash between Wildcats and Tidesmen, with the score now standing 2-to-1 in favor of the Ala bama school. The first victory came in 1917, the lone defeat came in 1922, and the third game was played last year, Alabama winning.
 Alone from the fact that Kentucky would like to even matters with Ala bama by winning Saturday, they are also quite desirous of increasing their prestige in the opinion of the sports experts by walloping Alabama, team rated first in southern grid circles at the present time.
 Clear Skies
 The weatherman promises clear skies for Saturday. The alumni promise to be here some few hundred strong. Friends of the Capstone of football in particular promise to add several more hundreds. And with a 2,000-crowd from the stu dent body, all of Tuscaloosa and the kI be at the Capstone, it is expected that at least 10000 will be on hand to wit ness the game.
 Kentucky was defeated last Saturday by the Centre Colonels, but Alabama scouts who witnessed their defeat re- ,orted back to Wallace Wade that there was not much difference between loser and winner in the Centre-Kentucky con test. Kentucky is strong. There's no doubt existing about that fact, and she will play the Tide furious game from start until finish.
 Kentucky Dangerous
 Wallace Wade, on the other hand. re- alized early in the season that Ken lucky was apt to prove a stumbling block to the championship aspirations of the Tidesmen and have been telling his troubles with hard practice to his gridders all season. As a result, they will strut their stuff Saturday or end the game fighting hard for a victory.
 The Crimson-White predicted a 20-7 victory against the Wildcats. This may be the case, but it is apt to be closer than that. Kentucky has a strong de- fensive team and also team that has a punch in gaining yardage. It is uOuDCeSS whether three toucHuoWuS Will be scored throughout the game unless backs go hog-wild on the matter of 
 Plans Complete
 The Capstone has completed plans for the entertainment of alumni who are expected here Saturday. The special train is expected in from Birmingham about II o'clock. Immediately upon ar rival, the alumni will be served lunch at Tutwiler hall, home of fair co-eds, with the fairest serving. The game starts at 2 o'clock promptly. That

FAYETTE BEATS
 GUN HIGH, 13-6
Tigers Have Made Fine Grid Record This Season

i FAYETTE, Ala, Nov. 7.-(Special.) The Fayette Tigers took one more step toward ttular honors Friday when they defeated the strong Guin high team 8 to 6. Fayette pushed over an other touchdown but was called back and penalized fifteen yards for hold ing. Y Six points is all that has been scored on Fayette so far and that was two drop kicks in today's game. Their goal line remains uncrossed by any high school.
 Fayette has defeated Sulligent high, Parrish, Hamilton agricultural school, Vernon high and Guin today. Tusca- looss high was only able to defeat Guin z to O and that was in the last minute of play. Fayette had no trouble at all in defeating Guin in today's game. [ Next Friday the Fayette Tigers meet the strong Hueytown team in Bessemer and the outcome will be watched with great interest on account of bearing on the championship.
 It would be hard to name the stars of the Fayette team today, due to the excellent showing made by the whole team.

Junior Tigers Score Two TOuchdOwns Over
 Southern Rats

AUBURN, Ala, Nov. 7.-(Special.) The Auburn Freshmen reserved their former performances here today and won over the Panther Freshies of Bir- mingham-Southern by score of IF to o, in a hard-fought contest that marked the forth game for the local Rats this season.
 The game started with Tuxworth kicking 1 yards, the Birmingham lads tried once at the line and kicked short one that gave Auburn the ball in the middle of the field. From this point, Granger, Hardwick, Bogue and Tuxworth alternated to carry the ball over for touchdown without losing possession of the ball. Granger, former Bessemer player, climaxed the drive with line busk for two yards that went over. Bogue failed at the extra point on a drop-kick.
 Panthers Threaten
 In the second and third periods the Southerners, after runs by Beck and Miller placed the ball in position, threatened the Auburn goal line, but each time lost in trying to rush the line for the necessary yardage.
 In the closing minutes of the final quarter, with the ball in midfield and m possession of the Newell Freshmen, the Auburnites suffered severe pen altv of half the distance to their goal line on account of a player talking immediately following his entry to the game. From this point the Orange and Blue outfit opened up an offensive that would do credit to any team. Shotts, who had substituted for Granger at fullback, hit the line hard for deep thrusts ln the opponents territory. Mingled with the hard hitting tactics, Tuxworth let loose d brilliant array of passes with Ellis and Hardwick on the receiving end. One of these aerial attempts netted the Auburnites ten yards while another went for thirty yards.
 ShOtts Goes Over
 With five yards to go Shotts made the distance in two downs for the last touchdown. Ellis failed at placement for the point after touchdown.
 The MethOdists brought husky team to the village. Clay Jackson, former Auburn Tiger fullback, is coaching the Panther Freshmen. Beck and Miller proved to be the offensive stars for the visitors while Bowden, Hefty tackle, Bostick. at guard and Allen at end were in every play.
 Hardwick, Bogue, Tuxworth, Grang- CT and Shotts all contributed to Au- I fp be valuable cogs in both offensive and defensive. Patterson played at center and backed up the line on the defense and Manley at tackle was also an out standing performer in the forward wall.

ATLANTA, Nov. 1.-Two games with an important bearing on the mythical championship of the Southern confer ence and two ventures into the east by teams from the south, feature tomor- rows football card.
 Alabama and Georgia, undefeated md unencumbered by the games, meet con ference teams, the Bulldogs snapping at yhe Cavaliers in Charlottesville, while the Crimson Tide will attempt to wash out the Kentucky Wildcats as the fea- ture of homecoming celebration in the Alabama college town.
 A contest attracting extraordinary interest by southern and eastern teams is at West Point where the University of Florida is meeting the Army. The Caters are capable and will certainly put up . battle against the rejuvenated Mule, but they cannot be regarded in advance as having the better of the dis cussion. Maryland Meets Yale
 In the other invasion the University ant memory of history making game last year to cheer them on. It is doubt full if southern airs will predominate
  this year, however, for Maryland has not found its football path one of roses. Ellis victory over Maryland last year was by the scant margin of two points
 Numerous clashes between conference teams will probably cause a shakeup in the standing this week. Mississippi A and M., boasting the proud record of victory unmarred by defeat, plays Van derbilt at Nashville. The Commodores played their first games for fun and now fighting desperately to get even so the game with Aggies should be fast and furious.
 L. s. U. Meets Tech
 Louisiana State comes to Atlanta to play Georgia Tech in a game that some experts have suggested will be decided on the basis of Techs ability to stop far-famed passing attack of the Tigers,
 A battle of the sternest character should develop when Auburn meets Tulane at Montgomery. Both teams have had their good and bad days dur ing the season and if they happen to elect to make it unanimous for the good tomorrow fur will fly.
 Carolina Vs. Virginia
 North Carolina fires a double barrel ed shot at Virginia when the University of North Carolina plays V. M. I. at Chapelhill and North Carolina State tries conclusions with V. P. I. at Raleigh. The Tarheels have bumped into diversity along their football way and the same goes for the Flying Cadets, but both have pointed for this game and it is sure to be interesting. The wolf pack of North Carolina State has found one vexatious incident after another in it's season, while the Gobblers have won two conference games and played score less ties with Auburn and Washington and Lee, this record making the black smith boys favorites.
 Both teams have been eliminated from serious consideration as contenders for the head of the clash in the Sewanee- Mississippi game, but the contest is nevertheless attracting much attention. The Tigers and "Ole Miss" did not meet last year.

 THE real development of Ty Cobb
 as a ball player did not take place
 on the playing field at Augusta but in summer amusement park. Here, where the working classes of Augusta sought relief and recreation in the sum- mer evenings, the foundation was laid for Cobbs meteoric rise and dynamic career.
 Leidy decided, after closely observ- ing Cobb's play, that this boy could not be developed by ordinary coaching. He knew the boy had imagination and he concluded that the most effective methods with him would be to appeal to this imagination.
 Cobb was a stranger in Augusta and one day Leidy asked him what he was doing that evening" Cobb replied that he had no engagement and Leidy in- vited him out to the summer park.
 This park, at the end of the car line, maintained by the street car company because of the financial advantages to be gained, had the usual summer park equipment, merry -go-round, Ferris wheels, vaudeville show, cave-of-the- winds and so forth. To this place Leidy took his youthful recruit. They walked around and Leidy finally sug- gested that they sit down and rest awhile.
 Sowing The Seeds
 As they sat on a bench Leidy com mented on the amusement offerings.
 You ought to see what they have in the big cities. This is nothing. Why in New York and Chicago, Boston and Detroit, Cleveland and Cincinnati and those cities they have parks that woul l swallow dozen of these places and you'd never notice 'em. You've heard of Ccney Island, of course. We'll, now Concy Island"
 And Leidy followed with a vivid word picture of Coney Island. He went
