BIG PREP TILTS
 IN THE DIPPING
Contending Elevens Clash Several Good Local
 Games Friday

Several big prep battles with Magic City elevens playing prominent part are ! in the offing, with two or three sched' uled for Friday.
 The Jeffcohi Wildcats tangle with the Tigers of Bessemer at Munger Bowl Friday, while Simpson plays Shades Cahaba on the Mountaineers' own lair. University is slated to clash with Minor in a hectic fray: The Woodlawn Colonels will journey to Tuscaloosa to give battle to the strong contenders from the Druid City in real scrap Friday, the feature battle of the weekend for Magic City elevens, although it will be played on foreign soil.
 Two of the most important clashes with local elevens- participating will take place on Armistice Day, when the Ensley Jackets tackle the Poets of La nier at Cramton bowl, Montgomery, and the Phillips Crimsons go to Jackson vile, Fla, to give battle to the highly touted Duval high battlers. Bearing On Championship The Woodlawn-Tuscaloosa scrap and the Ensley-Lanier struggle will have a big bearing on the final choice of prep fans for the mythical state champion ship, as three undefeated elevens and another with almost a clean record will face each other.
 The Jefferson Bessemer title will draw considerable local interest. Jeffer- son has a heavy team, one which held Ensley to a 19 to 0 decision and Ems ley defeated Bessemer. The Wildcats have a chance against the highly touted Tigers, and a real battle is expected. Bessemer has one of the best elevens in the state, and Red Harris clan will go into the battle to avenge themselves for their loss to Ensley week ago. The tilt will take place on Munger bowl Friday afternoon.
 Simpson goes over to the Mountain eers' camp to engage the proteges of Aubrey Miller. The Tornado will be outweighed, but may be favored in the dope to hand Shades Cahaba a licking. However, the licking will be on a very narrow margin. Neese's eleven will have their hands full. Shades Cahaba held Bessemer to 12 to o, while Simp- son came out of their tilt with the Tigers on the weak end of 25 to 0 count. This would give the Mountain eers a good margin.
 University Plays Minor.
 University tangles with Minor, and a good scrap is predicted. The Game cocks were able to beat McAdory by practically the same margin as Minor did, and the two elevens will stage a hectic battle for the decision.
 Fairfield will play Oakland high at Fairfield in another tilt carded for Fri day.
 Woodlawn's journey to Tuscaloosa not only will bring together two of the state strongest elevens, but the re- suit of the battle will materially af- feet the final rating of the number of teams when the curtain goes up on the prep gridiron season. Woodlawn, with a powerful and crafty eleven, will have the edge in the dope over the Tusca- loosans, but the Druid City clan is tricky and a bunch of fighters, and are doped to stage a real battle for the decision.
 WO0dlawn Undefeated
 Woodlawn is undefeated, claiming as their chief IAOries decisions over Phil lips, Coffee gh and Anniston. With Tuscaloosa Added, it will give them a mighty good record to bring to the Woodlawn-Ensley scrap to battle for the state championship, should the Jackets be successful up to that time. Tusca- loosa holds tie count with Sidney La
