McGinty, can be taken as a synopsis of the fracas-to-be, the southern champ had better give over his day dreaming and visions of crowns in the fore and deal with matters closer home.
 Once before-on one of his visits here Jimmy got embroiled in an altercation with Johnny McGinty and though the judges called the bout even the con sensus of opinion was that the Louis vile slugger beat the local boy. Some time later Johnny left for New York and his parting words were, "I'll come back and show fYouy how to lick Fin ley"
 Johnny Comes Back
 After an eastern campaign and a liberal education in the various ways of swinging feather encased pad and the different means of producing sleep without use of an anesthetic, Nc Ginty came back and now is going to take another crack at Finley.
 As for Finley he says he is not ofilr going to win this battle but the one in Chicago, so it seems that there is no means of telling which way the contest is going until the clash Monday night. Finley has been working with speedy young batam, Armin Luntzel, in Louis vile in an enaieavor to increase his speed.
 McGinty has been training hard dur ing the past week for the coming bout and will use all his acquired knowledge in frustrating the attempts of the in- vader to repeat the does of defeat. After the short Dillon encounter last week in which McGinty lost on foul he is ready forsaction aplenty Monday.
 A good cardq of preliminfries have been booked and the feature of the be- fore-bout matches will be that of Boots Smith of Charleston, who will meet Red Burke in a six-rounder. Smith boxed Lukie Tenner,; Boots Antley and sev- eral other leading southern bantams and he is angling for a main bout here with Claudio Wilson.
 Max Scholder is slated to wrestle Taylor in 10-round bout while there are number of other good preliminary boxing fracases on tap.

 Recently Wertheimer took on Atchi- son on the courts of the Memphis Y. M. c. A. and was decisively beaten in a three-game series. Monday the match will be the second of the three-mafch series which issvirtually for the cham pionship of the south. A third series of games will be played in Memphis later.
 Atchison has beaten most of the lead- ing players in the south and is an ex- pert of the enclosed court. Wertheimer defeated Harry. Heilmann, the Detroit Tigers star outfielder, and champion of Detroit, here early this spring. Both men have played in the national tourna- ments and are veterans at the game.

Muster Minds Of Football To TeU Of
 Master PLdys

W7HAT is psychology in football :! w Gil Dobie of Cornell says
 psycholoy made 50-yard run in one of the most spectacular plays the gridiron has ever seen. He tells about it in The Age-Herald.
 Dobie's story is the second in the series, supreme football strategies, of which Bill Roper contributes the first thriller in today's issue.
 Stagg-Glenn Warner-Yost - Heisman-Jones-Folwell these men know what's what in football and they and others of equal note will tell in this series. It's foot ball classic. Watch The Age-Herald every Sunday.

surrender. Coming back with desper- ate determination it mixed forward passes with line plunges by John Thomas until the ball finally reached Princeton's two-foot line. We threw in endorsements just as the big Chi cago star made his final attack and blocked him off. Then a kick carried the ball out of danger Before it could be put in play again the whistle blew.
 "One of the most thrilling strug- gles in western football history said Walter Eckersall of this game. No this one," wrote another critic. And, the most sensational intersectional bat tie of history" was the comment of q third.
 It was all of these Certainly it was a stupendous triumph for an eleven which had been confidently expected to lose. The memory of the defeat ad- ministered by Chicago at Princeton the previous year was erased. The team gained a new impression of its capabili- ties. It went on to victories over Swarthmore, Harvard and Yale, ending the season without defeat as mythical champion of the east.
 Yes, all circumstances considered that forward pass from behind the goal line was the greatest strategy I ever saw. Sincere, hardworking Howard Gray can always be proud that he was responsible for it.
 Princeton has other causes for remem beling him. Two weeks later at Cam bridge he made a splendid 30-yard TUT with the ball that enable us, with C one-yard plunge, to put over the win ming touchdown against Harvard.

 Have Team This Year

BESSEAIER, Ala, August 31.- Scrimmage for the Bessemer football teams will be started at the new muni- cipal athletic field Monday, Septem- Der 8. It is expected that there will be more than 50 to try for the high school varsity, though the entire line will be returned intact this year. There are only a few positions to be filled on either the first or second string teams, though the competition Is expected to be keen.
 An item of interest this year will be the formation of the junior high school team, which with the two high school teams, will give Bessemer three big elevens.
 Scrimmage has already started at the county schools and practically all their games have been booked for the new athletic field at Bessemer, where more than 30 games will take place this sea son. The outstanding games for Besse mer will be with Ensley, Sidney Laniel and Tuscaloosa.

A. Barton, poultry specialist at the
North Dakota Agricultural college.
Cost of production experiments
were run ut the college poultry
house for ten months and careful
records kept of all feed given and
all eggs laid. Every hen in the
flock was put on the test, Mr.. Bar
tor reports, so that the results would
not be influenced by the best hens
in the flock. There was some veri
alton from month TO month as to the
number of hens on the experiment
but the average for the ten months
was 49.3 hens.
The total feed bill for this period
amounted to $50 .42. Scratch feed
cost $3l 81; mash cost $l9 %;
oyster shells and grit Sl33; char
coal 23 cents; straw 81. The straw
bill would not be one that the aver
age farmer would have to meet as
most farmers have straw that would
be available for nests and for the
floor of the poultry house. Scratch
feed bills also could be reduced I'M
der farm conditions, thinks Mr.. Wal
dron, as much of the feed that the
flock would pick up around the barr-
yard and nearby fields would other
wise be wasted. The total egg pro-
duction was 421 dozen or $3.50 eggs.
This makes an average production
per hen for the ten-m onth period Of
1924 eggs.
With the total cost of $50 AZ and
with a maximum production of 421
dozen eggs the cost Of producing
each dozen amounts to IA. 1 cents,
the records show. The average
price received by the college poultry
man for eggs sold during this period
is 81 cents which leaves margin Of
1G.9 cents. The average cost of
keeping one hen for this period is
found to be 81 20.
