The Howard college Bulldog eleven, following a severe week on the training field, finished off with a stiff signal drill Thursday afternoon and will be ready for the invasion of the Spring Hill team Saturday afternoon at Redwood field. The game will start at 2:30 o'clock.
 The freshmen took the varsity on for tough scrimmage session Tuesday and heavy signal drills Wednesday and Thursday were given the Bulldogs, while a light practice Friday afternoon will close out the menu of work. The coming encounter will be Towards third home contest. In the opening game the Crimsons from East Lake took the Marion Cadets on and walloped them by a good score. Jacksonville Normal was defeated by four touchdown mar gin and the locals will have the edge in dope in the coming game.
 The Spring Hill eleven has had a varied season so far this year and has made a good showing in all her games, however. Their opening game with Louisiana state was lost by one point, the score was to 6. However, later they could not hold the Tulane Greenies and were beaten, B to 0. The Mobile eleven, nevertheless, has good defense and with a combination of fast backs

TIDE IS READY
 FOR OLE MISS 'Bama Freshmen To Face Vandy FrOsh At
 Tuscaloosa

UNIVERSITY, Ala, Oct. 30.-(Spe- cial. .)-The Crimson Tide of Alabama will leave the Capstone early Friday morning for Montgomery, Ala, where Saturday they play the eleven ot the University of Mississippi.
 The Tidesmen will reach the Capital City about noon Friday and will be ouartered at one of Montgomerys lead ing hotels. Friday afternoon, they will take light work on the grassy sod of Cramton bowl.
 With the Tidesmen battling Ole Miss in Montgomery, the Capstoners are turning their attention to the game here Saturday between the Vanderbilt freshmen and the Baby Tidesmen. A matinee of the game in Montgomery will also be given at Denny field that after noon.
 Not Many Students
 There will not be so many students in Montgomery for the game as expect ed. Several hundred will be there, now ever, and the Million-dollar band will be on hand. One cheer-leader IS to pc sent along with the rooters. Six-weeks examinations and the fact that cuts for absence are not being given will cause great many o<stay at the Capstone.
 Scrimmage of more than two hours was done Wednesday afternoon and an- other harder workout was given the players Thursday. afternoon, No chance is being taken on a possible loss t0sthe Mississippi eleven, who were defeated last year by a 46-0 score here on the campus.
 Alabama will, in all probability, start the same eleven that last Saturday downed Georgia Tech. Whether this team will stay in the game long will be. determined by the opposition furn- ished by the Ole Miss eleven. It IS believed, however, that the Crimsons will win by a score of at least three touchdowns.
 Home Coming Day
 Plans for entertaining an immense crowd here next Saturday on Home coming Day are going along fine. Ev- cry day brings requests for reserved seats at the game. The kentucky eleven is reported to be snapping into their work and an effort to wreck the championship aspirations of the Ildes- men is to be made when they play here. This is regarded as hard game for the Crimsons as the Center and Georgia games will be-.
 A snappy game should he played on the campus Saturday when Alabama s freshmen team, winner over the Tulane frosh last Saturday in New Orleans, meets the freshmen eleven from Van derbilt. Last years game resulted in win for the Rama freshmen. mainly through the excellent running of Dave Rosenfeld.
 The 'Bama freshmen seem not to have as good a team this year as the freshmen eleven was last year, but Tn Dick Hammer and Req Brown they have two speedy backs who should prove no end of trouble for the Vandy frosh. And in Smith, Payne, Bowdoin and other stalwart yearlings, Coach Van de Graaf has several linesmen who can open holes and stop plunges.
 Ole Miss in Montgomery and the Vanderbilt freshmen in Tuscaloosa pro. vides all the grid entertainment that Capstoners will have this week-but next week is Homecoming Day with real thriller promised in the Alabama 1 Kentucky bame.

are figured to give the Bulldogs trou- ble. One of the outstanding stars of the team is Johnny Grill, who smashed lines for Phillips High school last sea son and who has been going good this year. McAvoy is another veteran wno shows plenty of speed in broken field.
 Howard Has Drive "4
 The speedy Howard team will nave strong forward wall to smash into Saturday. However, with the driving plunges of "Ox" Casey, it is unlikely that the Crimsons will be held long. Mccarthy, another line smashing back, and Scokel, a flash on end runs. with Captain Stevens brilliant dashes. make up a backfield with a very varied at- tack. The passing of Stevens andahis drop-kicking add another item Of dan ger for opponents. h.
 The Bulldogs will be in good shape for the game with the exception of one end, where Slick Lollar will be absent. Wilkinson, who has shown much ability in other games this season, will fill his vacant berth.
 Alternate Captain Toby Stubbs will be in his regular place at guard with Spicer on the other side of center. Claude Brewster will play the pivot po- sition, while Rains and Kelly will play the tackles. Shepard and Wilkensors will start at ends. r7

PERCY HAU!GHTON. IS LAID TO REST.
Founder Of Harvard's System Buried In Shad-
 Ows Of Stadium
BY CARL A. KHUBER Rv Leased Wire To The Age-Heral

(By Leased Wlre 10 1ho fAs1-hhei "iu.
 BOSTON, Oct. 30.-Percy Haughton, outstanding genius of the Gr1dlron, camc home Thursday to rest almost m inc shadows of the Gray walls of Harvard's great stadium, where Tn years gone by he worked his plgskln magic. ..s..
 Across the Charles river the Stadium stood black and sombre, like a great monument against the orange sunset when the body of the man known as the founder of Harvard's present football system was laid in Mt. Auburn ceme- terys i.
 A sbrisk fall wind, warmed by the setting sun, perfect football practice weather, reminded those who knew the refiawned coach of She late afternoons he. had spent on Soldiers field drilling Harvard teams. But on this day the Stadium was silent, while players and coaches paid tribute.
 Burial followed funeral services at St. PauPs Episcopal Cathedral. Strong, athletic men, some who knew Haugh- ton in life, others only by sight or fame, filled the church.
 Among those present were officials of Harvard, football stars of this and preceding athletic generations, and re- spresentatives of athletics at Columbia University, where recently Haughton kwas head coach.s. .--w N Members of his own class of 1899 were there, and scores of men who had been associated with him in busi- ness and private life in Boston.
 The episcopalian ritual was con ducted by Bishop Lawrence, assisted by Rev. Sherrard Billings of Gordon school where Haughton prepared for collegt.

The matter can't be settled, however, until Muggsy McGraw comes back from Europe.

AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 30.-(Special.) Football in the Southwestern confer ence shifted last week from brisk college sport to screaming melodrama. A game was not worthy to be called game unless it was featured by hair raising climax, and difference of more than four points in the score was un- heard of. Texas stopped the great Middlekauf of Florida in four successive blunges with the ball against the gonl line and earned z to z tie. The bang of the timekeeper's pistol halted the Mustangs of Southern Methodist uni versity as they held the ball on first down on the Texas A. & M. 1-yard line, and another to ' score resulted: The Kangaroos of Austin college, small but belligerant non-conference crew, humbled the proud Bares of Baylor, to 8, by holding them thrice within the Eve-yard line. Rice's Owls beat the Texas Christian university Horned Frogs by the same score and the same weird football display near their own goal.

MANDY TO PLAY OFFENSIVE GAME BOmar's Recovery Has Broken Gloom In Com
 rn0dOre Camp

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 30.-(Spe- cial. al.)-Vanderbilt has faced the task this week of recuperating from two straight losses to Dixie conference foes and the disastrous loss of Lynn Bom- ar for tile year, in addition in pre- pairing to battle their ancient rival, Auburn, in the stadium Saturday.
 But for the serious injury to Bomar Saturday the team showed much Of the strength hoped for against Georgia. They had come long way back from the miserable showing against Tulane, and but for Moore's toe would have emerged with at least scoreless tie against the vaunted Bulldog team. Bomar's recovery from a complete par alytic condition to normalcy in the course of a day not only astounded the medical experts but has broken away the shadow of gloom that settled over the Vanderbilt camp with prospects of his becoming a permanent invalid with out the use of his limbs. Indications are now that he will be back in uni form for the Georgia Tech struggle three weeks away and Bomar himself is urging that he be allowed to watch the game Saturday from the Commodore bench.
 Hendrix In Bomar's Place
 Bill Hendrix has replaced Bomar in the lineup and will likely add an offen- sive punch that will partially make up for Bomar's great loss on the de- fense. Hendrix has shown powerful drive in scrimmage and gave an excel lent account of himself after replacing Bomar against Georgia. He is a fair passer and lacks only experience to be come the great receiver that Bomar was.
 Realizing Auburn's great defensive powers, the coaches are concentrating on a plan of attack this week that serve to out-speed the Plainsmen and pave the way to touchdowns without the effort of steady plugging against the powerful Auburn front.
 The backfield will be exactly halt new against the Plainsmen with Hen dirk replacing Bomar and George Wal Ter subbing for Mig Waller, both Bes- semer High school graduates and former Alabama High school stars. George re- placed the injured Mig last Saturday and ran the team in fine style. His defensive play, passing ability, and speed in covering punts caused him tc be given another whirl at the quarter back role against the Plainsmen.
 Ryan And Reese o. K.
 Thus Ryan and Reese will be the only backfield regulars in the start ing lineup The line will probably re main unchanged with Captain Kellt still watching the game from the side lines. His injured leg still refuses tc heal and it's unlikely that he vii be able to play before the Tech com bat in Atlanta on November l5. Bryan who was unable to play against Geor gia, will likely be in Kelly's place il the line. His injured knee has cont around steadily and he will carry onl! slight limp for Saturdays battl' ! against Auburn. sS''-s a'-
 The Plainsmen are feared despite thei rather light scoring record this season and the Commodores will drive hard tt develop an offensive punch that vii offset the great defensive strength Ot the Plainsmen.

HUEYTOWN WINS
 FROM SAINTS, 13-O

PULLMAN, Ala. : Oct. 30.-(Special.) McLane, big fullback of the Hueytown Gophers, went over the white line for pair of tonchdowns here this after noon, and the visitors defeated St. Bernard Saints by the count of Is to O. The locals staged hard fight against their heavier opponents, but the smash ing attack of the Gophers were too much for them.
 Hueytown received on the first kick off and immediately started march down the field which netted them a touchdown. The Gophers used chiefly line smashing with some end runs to carry the ball down to their opponents goal line where McLane smashed over for the first counter. |, The second and last touchdowns of the game came in the third period when, after an exchange of punts' Hneytown received the ball on the 40- yard line. Another drive down the field with McLane going over producer the score. Porter kicked one nt the two trys for point-after-touchdown.
 The Saints uneOrked VI onward pass ing attack in the final period which almost netted them a touchdown. They completed 10 to IF passes, most o which, however, were for rather small fains. The drive carried them down to the Hueytown yoal line, but a 15-yard pass over the line in an attempt to score was grounded, and their drive balted,
 The St. Bernard were seriously handicapped because of injuries to Cap tain Slovensky and Kelly, two of their brightest stars, who did not get into the game. This pair were injured in last Saturdays fracas with the heafy Blountsfille team.
 The backfield of the Hueytown clan performed in great styles, with Me Lane as the outstanding star. The line also performed in fine fashion.

PANTHER GAME TO DRAW CROWD AnnistOn Prepares For Jacksonville Game
 Saturday
(AnnistOn Bureau.)

ANNISTON, Ala, Oct. 30.-An at- tendance that will out distance any rec ords made at previous athletic events here is expected Saturday when the Bir- mingham- Southern Partners meet the Jacksonville Normalites at the city park here. The football game is being spon- sored by the junior chamber of com merce and an extensive advertising cam paign is being conductend. The advance seat sale is said to be exceptionally heavy and everything points to ca pacity crowd.
 Bleachers with a seating capacity of one thousand are now being eredsed in the ball park and this will serve in ad- dition to the large grand stand al- ready constructed.
 Music will be furnished by the Boy Scouts and a number of stunts have been arranged.
 The Jacksonville State Normal eleven is being put through a heavy grind of practice. Each afternoon for the past several days they have spent sev- eral hours running signals in the gym. Thirty men compose the squad and r1ree coaches are assisting Head Coach Red Wren, fromre Auburn star, in pre- pairing the teachers for the affray.

FLORIDA'S SHOWING POOR IN SOUTHWEST
Gators Should Have Beaten Long-horns Many
 Hard Games Feature Conference Clashes

Incidentally the Southwestern Con- ference emerged with colors flying over the Southern Texas tie of Florida came as a distince surprise, the Long horns being far from the top in the Southwest and the Gators very close to the top in the South. The Arkansas did their bit by spilling Mis- sissippi, 20 to o, through the Hogs like wise are on the outside in the South western race.
 Florida's failure to beat Texas was all the more surprising as the Longhorns went into the game minus six regulars. But the Gators could not develop the goal line punch, and the Steers, often charactized as the hardest-fighting eleven that Texas has ever produced, tied their heavier oponents by revival of the spirit of the Alamo and San Jacinto, which, Translated into simple terms, means a determination not to be beaten. Florida has probably lost the services of two of her best men, Newton and Jones, both going out of the game with injuries.

 The team that refuses to be licked won't be licked.

 The Hole-1in-one club adds a few members each day. Reading the names one rarely finds that of golfer who is known outside his own club. Few of the golfing leaders ever make hole in one. Golf champions are champions because they try for par. A hole made in one is the result of golfing luck and not golfing skill.
 In all football there is nothing more picturesque than the stadium at West Point. It stretches in white semi circle. facing tine huge reservoir, a "lake'' high up. Surrounding the stadium are trees that stretch to twice its height. Had the entire plan been made by landscape architect and con- structed at the cost of millions it could not have been made more picturesque, ! magnificent, or beautiful.
