PANTHER FROSH BATTLE AGGIES Rats Play Albertville In Munger Bowl Friday
 At 2:30

The Freshmen of Birmingham-South- ern college entertain the Albertville Aggies in Mangef pow1 in one of the feature gridiron encounters of the day Friday afternoon, the game being slated to begin at 2;30 o'clock.
 The Panthers Frosh have already played two games, both of them being away from home. Thin will be their first appearance on the home field, and big crowd is expected to witness the future hopes of Birmingham-Southern in action Friday. They will have an excellent prep outfit to face in the AL bertyiIle Aggies. and the going for the Rats is doped to be rough. The Aggies this season have a fine combi- nation, as usual, and should give the Freshmen the hardest battle they have had to date.
 E The Freshmen have played two eames, ating Alexander City High in fine opener 34 to 0 and adding the scalp of Fayette High last Friday by the count of 2S to o.
 Opening Lineup
 When the referees whistle opens the fray Friday, the Freshmen will send the following lineup into the field Ends, Allen and Sapp; tackles, Will liainson and Bowden; guards, l.. Yield ing and Bostick; center, Lazenby {; quarterback, Miller: halfbacks, Brad ford and Beck; fullback, Buckner. I,owery, Childs, Gravlee and Full bright, all star backs, are on the ln- jured list and probably will not see any service in the fray. Lowery has been one of the brightest stars Of The Freshmen clan in theIr play thus far. while iChilds has also been a member of the regular backfielq. Their ab- sence from the lineup will be serious loss to the eleven.
 Albertville will likely send the fol. lowing lineup into the fray: Ends, Garrett and Ogle; tackles, Barnes and Hidsins; guards, Strickland and Mor- ton; center, Floyd: quarterback, Baker (captain) halfbacks, Mediock and Mat thews; fuIlback, Curry.
 Several Injuries
 The Aggies will also be handicapped with injuries, having several of their regulars far from the best of shape. However, the regular lineup will prob ably start for the visiting clan. Gar rett, Barnes, Hudgins and Medlock are the quartet of regular performers who are just recovering from injuries.
 The Aggies have been going good and expect to give the Frosh an awiul tussIe, and possibly surprise the locals by putting over a victory.
 Coaches Clay Jackson and Perry have been sending their cohorts through

Bessemer Stadium To Be Dedicated When
 Brownies Meet Purple Clan Friday

for the struggle Friday, and both are expected to be in the best of shape for the fray.
 Jones Valley slipped down to Besse- mer last year and returned with the scalp of the Tiger dangling from their belts. The Brownies considerably upset the dope by handing the Tigers to C defeat, but they maintain there will be no upsetting of the dope this year. They confidently expect to win.
 Bessemer is out for revenge, and the clan of "ked" Harris, rated as one of the best prep school coaches in Dixie, are all set to stage a terrific fight to annex the decision. And the followers of the Tigers, too, are confident of victory.
 % Another Great Team
 Bessemer seems to have another great team, like the teams for which this city was noted a year or two back. They have their veterans who are going great, and 1t would not be surprising to see them cut wide swath in prep school circles this season.
 Bill Granger, charging fullback, is being depended upon. considerably for the great offense the Tigers seem to have. In addition to this star back, the Tigers have Harris, brother of Red, Ward and Moses in the back field. McNeil, big center, is a tower of strength in the forward wall, and should be one of the mainstays of the eleven. The line is composed largely of vets, and will perform in fine style Friday, according to advance dope.
 Jones Valley will enter the new stadium with an eleven rated in the top-notch class. The Brownies have Gardner, a charging fuIlback, and Nor ris Edney and Fox, star backs from last season, to depend upon for their gains. Their line is fairly heavy, and will be led by Allgood, one of the dis. trict's best tackles. Skews and Brill form a fine pair of ends, while Hark- ins at center and Wood at guard are stellar performers. Doc Newton is doped to make one change, probably, in his lineup at left tackle. Hardy will probably be switched to guard and either Doran, Ward or Akridge be placed at the vacated tackle berth.
 Bessemer will certainly have a great little prep struggle Friday, and the city seems all set to stage it in dra- matic style.

The Brownies of Jones Valley and the Tigers of Bessemer tangle in the feature prep event of sthe weekend at the new Bessemer stadium Friday aft ernoon, with the resuG of this contest considerably in doubt sn the eve of the battle.
 Both the Brownies and Tigers have the best teams which Ahaye represented their schools in several years, and with a rivalry which is especially keen,. reak battle is expected. Both eievens have big ma jority of their letter men back in the fold from last season, when they had strong teams.
 The pre-game dope hardly fayors either combination, but if a choice had to be made, the odds would probably go to the Bessemer clan. Jones Valley lost their opener to .Cullman High, to 0, and won their second battle from University High, -19 to 6, while Bessemer swamped Alliance in their only game played, S1 to 0.
 To Dedicate Stadium
 The Valley -Bessemer game will serve to open the new athletic stadium at Bes- semer, and dedication ceremonies, in cluding several speeches, will precede the game. All Bessemer with large assemblage from the Powderly dis, trict, home of the Brownies, are ex- pected to pack the new stadium for the game and dedication ceremonies.
 The stadium, recently completed, is one of the finest high school athletic fields of its kind in the south, and to Bcssemer goes the honor of ere ting the first prep stadium in the Birming- ham district. It was made possible through the efforts of the business men of Bessemer, and is an honor to the community. It will seat two thousand people, and space is allowed for the erection of temporary bleachers to seat as many more. It will be full Friday, according to predictions of those in charge of the game.
 The mayor of Bessemef has issued a proclamation closing all business houses Friday afternoon during the time of the game, giving all Bessemer an op- portunity to witness the struggle and take part in. dedication festivities.
 Point For Game
 Both Doc Newton, coach of Jones Valley and "Red'' Harris, Bessemer mentor, have been pointing their teams

 NEW GRID STAR
Team Will Be In Good Shape For Game With
 ChOctaws Saturday

UNIVERSITY, Ala5SOct. 9.-tspe- rial. )--Every year, during football practice at the University of Alabama, some one appears-unheralded, unan- nounced and unknown of.
 Last year it was Red" Barnes. From grass-cutter to varsity was Barnes story last year. As some remember, it was a spectacular dash down the field while A member of the grass-cutters that Barnes stepped up to the varsity squad and stayed there, stayed there in such manner that he rated as one of 'Bama's best backs for the year.
 This year Alabama has Bill Morri- son. He's a sophomore but little was heard of his football ability at Alabama during his freshman year. This year he asked for a uniform and saw service with the grass-cutters. But Wednesday afternoon he was running as a flank man on the varsity team against the freshmen in practice tilt.
 Morrison Promising
 If Morrison continues to improve as he has the past few days, it will add another man to theelist from which will come the Rama ends. On this list al- ready are McClintock, Hudson, Jones, Caldwell and Johnston. And now Nor rison. Morrison is rather fast apd weighs about 172 pounds. His home ;s at Selma.
 Hudson and Johnston both saw serv- 5 ice in serimmage this week. These two lads have been on the sidelines because of injuries received early in the season but should be able to play Saturday if 1 Coach Wade wishes to have them in there. Hudson still limps slightly but is fighting for a berth hard. And Me 4 Clintock and Jones are also after posi- 2 tions on the Crimson eleven.
 For more than an hour, Coach Wade scrimmaged his varsity eleven against the freshmen Wednesday, a scrimmage that had all the earmarks of a regular game. Men were sent in and others 4 taken out throughout the fray, the best ] of them all being reIegated to the side lines whenever they did one of the nu- merOus faults of omission or commis- sion.
 'Bama Prepared Alabama will be well prepared for the Mississippi ChOctaws when they ar rive for their, tilt Saturday. In the 4 Choctaws, Alabama faces an eleven that ! will call forth all the strength of the 4 Iidesmen. They are reported to have n well balanced backfield and pow erful line, a team able to make the ! Crimsons hump for the Fictors spells.
 Plans are being mAdH to entertain 8 crowd of several thou and fans here, for this is the final game of the year at the CapstOne until the annual clash with Kentucky State on Home Coming Day. The next three games will be played away from the CapstOne. When next they appear on the campus, a southern championship is apt to have disappeared or one appeared on the horizon.

american u. Student Describes
Experiences in JaiIs in Russia

Students at American University
have just learned that one of their
number Elgin E. Groseclose, who is
a candidate this June for the degree
of master of arts, underwent some
thrilling experiences in soviet prisons
at Batum and Tif1is just before en-
tering the university last fall.
Mr.. Groseclose was employed for
more than a year in near east relief
work, with headquarters in Tabriz,
and on his way home through the
Caucasus he incautiously provided
himself with 800 in American gold,
which is contraband in soviet terri
tory. He was discovered by the soviet
police, the Cheka, and arrested.
Possibly he might have explained
possession of the gold. but an Amer
lean Legion card he had with him did
not help his case much, and he had
also with him his life insurance pol
icy. The soviet officials, not over
familiar with English. translated
policy" as having something to do
with police" and jumped to the con-
clusion that he was a spy. AS con-
sequence he was thrown into prison
at Batum and held incommunicado
for some weeks. Later, strangely
enough. he was taken by two soviet
officials. who showed him every cour-
tesy, by rail to Tifiis and was given
excellent treatment on the train,
only, at the end of the journey, to be
cast into a still less pleasant prison
than the one at Batum.

associations and interest in the work
of the commission, Mrs. Rafter
should be appointed to the commits
sion.
Evening star., 1924-05-11

The sufferings of the prisoners
were increased, Mr.. Groseclose says,
by the Russian insistence on Keep
ing the windows closed, so that hafo-
-ly any air could circulate. This was
not so much the fault OF the guaros
as of the prisoners themselves. SUD
denly. and without explanation ne
was released one day from Tinis ana
permitted to proceed on his way:

Gen. Julian S. Carr of Durham,

American University and for many
years trustee, died recently at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. II. e.

nine years old.
DIR. Albert Osborn, who has been
with American University since 1t
was founded, is arranging material
preparatory to writing a history of
the university. DIR. Osborn has had
much experience in authorship, and
knows at first hand all the important
facts with regard to the university s
progress. He has preserved great
many documents for a number OF
years with just that purpose in
mind.
Twenty-seven ministers and spe-
cial workers located in this city or
connected with the Baltimore con-
ference, have attended American
