Fans from Birmingham, Montgomery and other towns near are also expected to be present. /
 Newly elected cheerleaders will do their stuff in brand new style. At the. regular election held last Monday. 'Slim" Carter, Hamilton Perkins and Ralph Macon were again chosen and | Tony Allen of Gadsden was elected to fill the fourth place. This quartet has been practicing several new stunts for the game Saturday and are composing new yells for the coming game in Be- vance. They, with the million-dollar band. will keep the old 'Bama pep up.
 Every man on the 'Bama squad, un- less Johnston proves the exception, will be able to take part in Saturdays game. Several men who have been playing hut were not in the best of physical condi- tion will enter their first game Satur- day feeling fit and ready. Hudson, as yet unseen in varsity scheduled game, should be able to play nt one of the Hanks if Coach Wade sees fit to use him. Starting Backficld
 The starting backfield for the Tides men will be chosen from Captain Hu- bert, Gillis, Brown. Whitaker and Barnes.
