 As in the game of Friday night when the Women of the Plains triumphed over the Birmingham-Sout quintet the feature of the game was the close ness of the guarding. The two Auburn guards, Price and Young, were well near impossible. Price was especially good. The guarding of these two Tigerettes was so close that the How ard girls were unable to get field goal in the first half and only two in the second half. =.
 Stacy at forward for the East Lakers was the most aggressive of the repre- sentatives of the Blue and Red and got in Amany shots that looked to be well near perfect but did not get through the hoop.
 Martin at center played good game, too, and succeeded in finding the loop for one field goal in the last half.
 Howard Stars
 Graves. McNeil and Little did excel lent work at the guards for Howard and did we'll to hold the Auburn five down to the low score of 15. Their guarding was even more free from rough play than that of the Plains women and was almost as close.
 Tamplin was the high scorer of the afternoon, making almost as many points as the entire Howard team and over half of the points for heg own team. Tn the first half she made three field goals and added another in the last half
 Powell, who went in at forward in the, last half, as a substitute for Lane was very srccessful with her shots and got three into the basket from the field She made her one free throw good fol point, too.

/ Another Bulldog Panther battle is ijust in the offing. Howard college bas- 'ketball team and the Birmingham Southern five clash Monday night at S:30 o'clock at the Birmingham Ath- letic club gymnasium. These battles, in whatever sport, are without exception hard fought and are featured by stub born resistence. This game shows promise of being doubly exciting, for the two teams are well matched and the results should be clos
 Both teams have recently conducted tour in Georgia and played practically the same teams. Results of the games tallied equally in all contests. and as far as dope Is concerned there is no odds either way. Both institutions are returning to the court for competition this year after a lapse of two or three years, and though both started off rather slowly. have improved much of late.
 In the games with the B. A. c. Blues the Bulldogs made a better showing than the Panthers.
 Stevens and Stubbs
 In Toby Stubbs and Ham Stevens the Bulldogs have two performers who. when they are right, are arsenic In the B. A. c. game both were shooting with unerring accuracy and played great ball. It Is these two men that the Partners will be called upon to watch closely. To combat their shooting the

Panthers have Hoyt Levie, mentioned by Columbus papers as one of the best back guards seen in action there. How ever, the brand of shooting done by Stevens and Stubbs is the long range variety which defensive systems are helpless against.
 For their offensive the Panthers have "Skeebie" Caldwell. He is the big cog in the machine and will be called upon to do the big scoring. He is a sure shot close to the basket and good floor man. Under the basket for Howard will be probably Wells and Darden or Murchison. Any pair drawn from this trio forms a good defensive machine, and Wells in addition is a good floor man.
 ScOkel Good
 Polly Scokel has been playing a good game at forward for the Bulldogs and has made a good running mate for .Ste- vens. He, too, is proficient at long range shooting and plays the floor we'll
 Team play will probably be the de- ciding factor Tn the struggle. The Bull dogs seem to have five men who pass better than the five Panther men, The Panthers have several good passers on their combination and they have sev- eral poor passers and one or two that does not pass at all. At any rate, the game should be hot one, and the win ner will be the one that shows the best team work.
