GOODWIN WILL
 COACH WALKER


 JASPER, Ala, Sept. 3.-(Special.) )
 With the acquisition of Coach Good win as athletic director of the Walker county high school, this institution is practically assured of great year in football and in other circles of ath- letics. With the return of only three letter men left on hand of land years wonderful season, and the splendid new material that is promising, Coach Goodwin should put in the field an aggregation of football players that will defeat the best of them.
 Walker county .feels mighty good over having secured Goodwin for he has wonderful record behind him. As five years of coaching in the differ ent high schools in the state he has only lost five games, two of them play ing for state championship. He has much ability in football as he has two years of experience under Coach Wal lace Wade, but the place should go to Goodwin on account of his superiority in, experience, disposition and team work. Coach Goodwin is quick thinker, brilliant player, has good disposition, and knowns ho wto get along with his men, and old Walker is assured of another successful season from all indications.

GUN MAY HAVE
 GREATEST YEAR

GUN, Ala, Sept. 13.-(Special. J. After two weeks workout the prospects for winning team to represent the Marion County High school for the 1924 season are very bright. With Captain Corbett, Weeks, Holcomb, Hughes and Alexander from last years team for the backfield, no trouble is expected in developing very powerful offense. With Byrd, Shelnut, Mckay, and Wright in the line the team should present an impregnable defense. The team has had only 2G points scored against it in the past two years and the prospects are brighter than ever before as there is wealth of material from the scrubs of last year and the green men. The schedule will include the high school teams from Fayette, Hamilton, Eldridge, Vernon, Tusca- Ioosa. Haleyville, Parrish, Sulligent and Tupelo Military institute of Mississippi. There are two open dates to be filled with good teams. The team is coached by John NJ. Brown of Auburn, who is in his fourth year at his present posi- ion. Il

BROWNIES HAVE
 FlNEPROSPECTS
Jones Valley To Have One Of Districts Best
 Elevens

The Brownies, haliing from Jones Valley High, are destined to make the prep teams of the Birmingham district sit up, take notice, and then see them wade through to victory. In more spe- cific language, Jones Valley will have one of the very best prep elevens of the district, barring none, as it looks at present. And to add another fact, there are but one or two high school teams in the district which look as good as these Brown gridders from Powderly.
 Here are the facts about the Brown ies. There will be eleven letter men, counting two of year before last, re- turning this season to compose the team, in addition to a linesman who played at Oneonta last year and an other who was a first string scrub at Duval High, Jacksonville, and several good understudies of last season.
 Team Almost Intact.
 The record of this eleven of last year, which is returning almost intact, was one of the best of the district then. They defeated Bessemer and a number of other strong teams of the district, losing to Simpson by the mar gin of a single touchdown.
 The schedule of the Brownies will include University High, Bessemer, Hueytown, Alliance, Minor, Simpson, Tuscaloosa, Shades-Cahaba and prob ably Woodlawn. It looks now like the Brownies will wade through success fully, and faiRly easily, with the ex- ception of one and possibly two of the elevens listed as their opponents.
 The men of lsat years team return ing to the fold of Coach Doc Newton are: Allgood, center; Wood and Ak ridge, guards; Hardy, tackle; Shews and Brill, ends; Edney and Fox, half- backs; Gardner, fullback. These nine veterans are performers whose ability is well known among the elevefis whom they played last year, and this list alone would insure a fine team for the Brownies.
 Wade, backfield veteran, and liar kins, center, both of whom played with the Brownies two years ago, will again be back in harness and run the string of letter men to eleven. Dorain, line man who scrubbed with Duyal High. of Jacksonville, one of the premier prep elevens of the south last wear. and Ward, center for Blount County High last season, are two new men who will be of great value to Coach Newton. In addition, Mart, Goodwin and Shipley are three scrubs of a sea- son back who are expected to do yeo- man service this fall.
 All in all, the Brownies look like a sure bet for one of upper notches to be reached by local prep elevens for the 1924 season.

HAMILTON WILL
 HAVE GOOD TEAM
Aggies Under Coach Campbell
 Look To Big Season

HAMILTON, Ala, Sept. 13.-(Spe- eial. .)-The Hamilton Aggies are being daily sent through some hard work, in rounding them into condition for a good schedule of games which is being ar ranged. The menu is being completed as fast as other schools open their sea son and have time to look over their material. Games are expected to be played with Fayette, Guin, Vernon, Sulligent, Winfield, Tupelo Military institute, Tuscumbia, Florence, Walker County high, Haleyville, Amory, and if any other nearby high schools in Ala bama High School association are open for games they will please communicate with the coach of the Hamilton Aggies.
 Coach Willis Campbell has come to Hamilton from Troy, Ala, where he coached the Troy State Normal school team for three years, to lead the Aggies and under his tutelage the 25 men who report for work each day are being gradually conditioned to meet the foe and at the same time are being taught the fundamentals of football.
 Among the men who have reported for practice are six letter men, large number of last years scrub team, and a number of men who have not played before. There is abundant line mate rial and with the fight and pep that these men are showing good backfield can also be developed from some of the Inemen.
 The outlook is very bright for the year and the coach is rejoicing over the fight that the men are showing in their initial practices.

SAINTS OUTLOOK
 VERY UNCERTAIN
Four Regular Men Back For
 White And Blue Eleven

ST. BERNARD, Sept. 13.-(Spe. cial. .)-Prospects of the St. Bernard football team are very uncertain just at present. In fact, the situation is very problematical, and the success of the Saints" for the coming football campaign is as uncertain as the race in the American league. Whether the coaches will be able to turn out another strong championship contender remains to be seen. Last year with one of the lightest teams in the state, the Saints" suffered a set back early in the season at the hands of the Lainer ''Poets," and then triumphed over Oneonta, Winston county, "Wildcats" from Jeffcohi, the Purple Tornado" from Simpson, and closed the season with 80 victory over the strong Gull man county "Mountaineers," in a hec- tic struggle on Thanksgiving Day.
 The first call for candidates was held on Thursday and more than thirty re- ported for the initial practice. The strong team that carried the White and Blue" on to victory last year, was sadly depleted by graduation. But four of the regular squad showed up for the initial workout; Slovensky and Kelly of the backfield, and Hodge and Fox of the line. Captain "Tobey" Moore, Theo Reding and Montgomery are still among the absentees but will no doubt show up in the next few days.
 A very attractive schedule, repre- sentative of the various sections of the State High school association has been arranged, and contains some of the best teams in the state.
 Sept. 27 Cathedral High (Nashville) ) at home.
 October 4, Bolunt County High, at home.
 October II open, abroad.
 October IS, Central High, (Albany) at home.
 October 25, Blountsville Aggies, at Blountsville.
 October 31, Hueytown High, at home.
 November 8, University High, at home.
 November 15, Simpson High, at Munger Bowl.
 November p. open, at home. : November 27. Lainer High, at Cram ton Bowl.

SIMPSON WILL
 BE VERY LIGHT
Material Must Come From Last
 Years Midget Team

Prospects at Simpson this season point to a light but fast team. With only two letter men back Coaches "Slim" Neese and Dick Webb are faced with the problem of building their eleven from the stars of the Simpson Midgets who showed up so well among the little fellows last season.
 From a squad of about 35 men the Purple Tornado mentors must choose their eleven it is likely that in the choosing team which will average about 125 pounds will be picked.
 The two letter men from last year who will again perform on the Tornado combination are Captain Russell Nal Joy, tackle, and Jim Lewis, center These two men were stars of last years team and will form the nucleus of the 1924 Tornado.
 The letter men of the Midget eleven which are among those out for the team this year are Grisham, who was cap tain of the Midgets, center, Curie, half back; Glass, tackle; Green, end; Me Laughlin, end; Sid Stewart, quarter, and Roe Lott, end, from Woodlawn High, Burus, end from Sylacauga, the Beasley brothers, Hugh Avant, and Tyler and Albert Vincent, of the scrub team last season, are also out for the team.
 Coach Neese is working the candi- dates hard and the team has been prac- ticing since September 1. The Tor nado has tough schedule including Walker County high, Bessemer, Jeffer- son county, Shades Cahaba, St. Der nard, Jones Valley and University high

GORDO EXPECTS
 GREAT SEASON
Coach Buchanan To Handle
 Football Eleven

GORDO. Ala, Sept. 1S.-(special.) Coach Buchanan, from Howard college, is laboring hard to whip the Gordo High squad into shape for the open- ing game of football. He has the fol lowing six letter men of 23 on the field every afternoon: Albert Elmore Claude Elmore, Kirk, Tunell, Shirley, and Sulivant. These are hitting the line like veterans. Some other letter men will be in school and on the field in a few days among whom is Hill ton Elmore. Among the new men who will make the letter men do their best if they retain there former positions are Godfrey, Fife, Baily and Hannah.
 Coach Buchanan says that he finds the boys in the best of spirits and that he is going to have a winning team. The fans are looking forward to the best football squad that Gordo High has ever had. Gorio High though small in numbers has enjoyed a very successful career in football, winning over Pickens County High last year. They have already signed contracts with several schools and are negotiat- ing with others. Our schedule will soon be complete.

ANNISTON HIGH
 PROSPECTS GOOD
(Anniston Bureau)

ANNISTON, Sept. 13.-L. P. Me Lean, who turned out a championship football team at the Jennings, La, high school last year, product of Howard and Maryville colleges, and the man responsible for the flashy sue cess of the Walker County High school eleven this year.
 A large number of men were lost by graduation but a good nucleus re. mains for Coach McLane to begin practice with. Practice will begin dur. ing the latter part of this week.

 eration from EShool officials.

PHILLIPS-WOODLAWN
 START WORK MONDAY
Ensley's Prospects Brightest Of City Schools For
 Great Football Eleven This Season

Coaches Duck" Stillwen and Robin Hood have issued calls for candidates at Phillips and Woodlawn high schools, respectively, to report for opening prac- tice Monday afternoon and with the taking of the field by the Crimson and Junior Colonels the last of the city schools will start training for the an- nual gridiron grind. The Ensley Yel- low Jackets have been on the field for over a week and are doing hard work In their practice sessions.
 In figuring the prospects of the eleven this year there seems to be noth- ing that can match that of Ensley. With 12 letter men on the field daily and the prospect of two more return ing Coach White has an abundance of material from which to draw his eleven. The squad, some 65 or 60 men, is one of the most promising col lections of performers in Alabama high school football It appears that the Yellow Jackets this year not only have big edge in the dope in the inter-city series but have bright chance at win ming the state championship as well.
 Ensley Fortunate.
 The Jackets this year will be led by Captain Scott, tackle, and this com bination is the only one of the three .ity schools not to be hard hit be loss of stars. Phillips High Crimsons will likely be the combination which will find the veteran material most scarce and it will be up to Coach Stillwell to build practically a new combination around a nucleus of four letter men.
 As for Woodlawn Robin Hood has eight letter man back and it is likely that one other will join the fold. Wood lawn, too, will attempt hard schedule with all games at home with the ex- ception of one trip which may be made to Mobile or to Chattanooga.
 Phillips Schedule Hard.
 Phillips will have the hardest sche 'ule to play likely and viii meet some of the south's toughest high school com binations. This, with the shortage of experienced material, will make the turning out of a successful eleven a tough problem for Coach Stillwell. Duval, Boys High of Atlanta, Chatta- nooga and either Columbus, Ga., or Meridian, Miss, are out-of-state elevens on the schedule of the Crimsons this season.
 Ensley will play the great Tech High eleven of Atlanta and Central High of
 
 ly have only one game with teams out of the state and that will be city high of Chattanooga, provided arrangements are closed for the game.
 Intra City Series.
 There will be a little shift in dates of the annual intra-city series and Woodlawn will encounter Phillips ear Tier in the season, October 25. The Crimsons will battle Ensley on l-ov. 21 while the best game of the series will likely be played on Thanksgiving Day when Woodlawn battles the Jackets on the morning of the Alabama Georgia game.
 The morning dates on the big foot ball days have all be filled with Phillips playing Chattanooga at Redwood on the morning of the Alabama -Sewanee game and Woodlawn on the morning of the Louisiana State-Auburn game. Woodlawn also has Anniston High

FOX HOWE WILL
 SHOW UP WELL
Former Auburn Star Coaching
 A. M. I. Eleven This Fall

ANNISTON, Ala, SeIt. 13.-Under the coaching of Fox Howe, former Au- burn star, stellar pupil of Mike Donohue the Alabama Military institute eleven count upon cutting a big slice in prep football affairs over the state, and south, during the coming fall
 The team that lost the state cham pionship by only one game last year will have practically all of the main stays back in school this fall, and prospects have never been brighter. Practice will begin immediately after the opening of school on September 16.

BIBB COUNTY HI
 PLANS BIG YEAR

CENTRVILLE, Ala, Sept. 13.- Especial. )-While the football team of the Bibb County High school will be composed mostly of new men, still the prospects for a high class team this year is fine. Of the old men Harold Burns, quarter; Julian Merchant, half l; and B. B. Kinnaird, end, will be on the team. Several new men from other teams are showing up we'll in practice, and the men of the second team year of last year are showing some wonder full development. A new field is be- ing tried out which has been wonder full so far. It is located on the school campus and is one of the very best football fields for high school athletics in Alabama, being spacious and com paratively level. Taking all things into consideration a good, fast team which will well represent the Bibb County High school is rapidly round ing into good shape. Prof Mckinley Howell, an alumnus of Auburn is coach, and is assisted by Prof. Hay. good of the same institution, both of these coaches are live wires and good results are expected.

AMERICANS WIN
 IN POLO MATCH
lContinued from Page 1N


 sensationally accurate hitting and for superior team play. But in the last two chukkers Lacey broke through and led the final, desperate rally that saw the only period of ascendency during the entire match by the British.
 Lacey's performance was all the more remarkable because he entered the game under the handicap of having just recovered from a shoulder injury. The British captain had been out of practice for nearly two weeks before the series was originally slated to start last Saturday. But the week of enforced postponement caused by rain gave him a chance to recover and today except for a pad he wore to protect his right shoulder, he gave no evidence that he suffered from any ill effects of his ills.
