Mack Brown bids fair to out kick Gillis this season, several long spirals this afternoon were good for seventy yards or more. Holmes seems destined to make good at center, while Buckler, Winslett and Johnson are all ready to start hard practice at once. This trio seems set for a big year.
 Much Interest Shown
 Never before has such great interest been shown in football at the Capstone, not only by the student body and alumni but the general public as we'll. Although the home coming game with Kentucky is over two months away Assistant Athletic Director Al Rives, has received four hundred and twenty seven reservations for seats while forty-nine individuals, who are wise in their day and generation, have reserved boxes for each of the three big games that are to be played in Birmingham. Southern football will un- doubtedly come into its own this year. the sport is still in it's infancy so to speak, but with prospects bright and enthusiasm running high overflow crowds will be the rule. instead of the exception.
 Alabama has herSshare of prep stars this year who will be ably handled by Bully Van de Graaf. who has arranged fine schedule for the Frosh.
 Good Coaching Staff
 Varsity, with Wallace Wade at the helm, and ably assisted by Hustling Hank Crisp, and Chief Scout Cohen, will have no excusses. No man could will have no excuses. No man could more thorough and painstaking with his men than 'Speedy"s Wallace Wade. He knows football and better still has shown that he is able to teach it. Bar ing accidents Alabama is sure to be championship contender.

Boone lined a single over short and Bradley scored. Chamblee rolled an easy one to Powers and he let it get through him, Boone was held at sec ond. Boone played far off second and when Carter threw to Bancroft to get him the Sipsey player raced for third. Bancroft's throw to Powers at third hit the bag and bounded out back of the base. Boone started for home and Powers threw over Carter's head trying to get him. Chamblee in the meantime had moved to third. Statham grounded out and ended the inning.
 Carter obtained two solid singles of Townley's four, while Praytor and Far ris obtained the other two. Bancroft's fielding featured the defensive play of the losers.
 Dummy" Bradley obtained a dou- 'ble and single to lead the Sipsey bat ters.
 Big Crowd Present
 A large and enthusiastic crowd wit messed the game. Several cars from Birmingham carried fans and officials over to the game. The one carrying the umpires and scribes drivenby Henry Hancken, the only living successor to Joe Boyer, if the opinion of some of the riders can be taken gas authentic, gave an excellent imitation of the an nual Pike's Peak race. His record of 69 miles per, on gravel road, was fast enough for several in the racing car.

Old Dame Fortune turned the screw another round Wednesday night and situation which was already so tight that iA creaked became just a wee bit closer as the moguls of the City league held a special pow-wOw follow ing a protest of last Saturdays Ala bama Power-Southern Bell game. Fighting for the championship of the central division and the right to meet the other two division champions in the elimination series, from which is to arise a city amateur champion nine to thwart the invasion of a choice team from Memphis, Southern Bell and Ala bama Power tangled up in two games last Saturday and the telephone boys took the Powerman's number twice. On the strength of this double victory the Southern Bell nine went one game ahead of the Powermen.
 In their endeavor to cop a game each of the teams imported a special pitch ed and pitted its ace against that of its opponent. Following the game, in which Nthe picking of the Southern Bell crew seemed little more effective, as their pick beat the Powermen's choice. Manager Moriarty, of the Powerteam filed protest on grounds of non- eligibility of the Bellmen's hurler, Lefty" James.
 Special Meeting
 At the meeting Wednesday night this protest was taken up and the defending team filed counter protest in which they claimed that Lefty Screws, who twirled for the Powermen, was also ineligible. It seems that both teams were found guilty and now the problem as to what to do in such a case will be passed on to Proxy John D. Martin of the Southern league, and his ruling will decide the matter. The question as to whether the game should be thrown out or called no

REGISTRATION
OF Cars SLOW
Only One of Mo-
tors in County Are
Given Plates

Less than ten per cent of the auto
tomobile owners in Cameron county
nave secured their 1925 licenses. leav-
ing a total of more than 5000 that must
secure them between now and January
1, or pay fines fer driving Without the
plates, said j. ]. Fox. county tax collect
or. yesterday. Seven hundred automo-
biles and a hundred trucks have besn
registered for new licenses to date.
Mr.. Fox pointed out that the slowness
which is being shown in securing the
new license plates Will cause a rush
during the last few days, and that the
office of the tax collector will be
swamped with persons wanting to get
licenses before the time limit is up.
At this time last year practically the
same number of vehiclcs had been sup
piled with. license plates by this date,
and there were only a few more than
half as many vehicles in the county at
that time. This will leave a much larg-
er percentage. and a still greater pro-
portionate number to be furnished with
plates before the time limit is up.
Sheriff Sam Robertson has issued
notice that all persons driving motor
vehicles after January l without a 1925
license plate will be arrested, and fined
under the provisions of the state law
covering this matter. Several officers
will be deputized to see that all vehi-
cles have new license plates, the sheriff
said.

PIGEONS Will
CARRY MESSAGE
Valley Asked to Contrib
ute to Fund For
Orphanage

Two carrier pigeons will be turned
loose in Brownsville Christmas day to
carry back to orphans in the Methodist
orphanage at Waco the glad tidings hat
the Rio Grande Valley has contributed
its share toward giving happiness to
the little tots in that home, said H. l..
Fitch Of Brownsville, who is a. member
Of the committee handling this work.
At Methodist church services through
out the Valley Sunday night and
christmas eve, free will offerings
Waco. A check will be made of the
amount taken in, and he news of the
collections in the Valley will be sent to
Waco by the two carrier pigeons. which
are expected in here soon, and which
will be released Christmas day.
"This report will be the offering Of
the newly created Brownsville District
Of the Methodist church." Mr.. Fitch
said. "The Methodist o%rphanage at
Waco is caring for more than 1900
children left without parents and means
of s~ustenance. Last year it was forced
to turn away 600 due to lack of facili-
ties. If all of the districts in the state
will aid like | believe this district will,
il will be possible to improve and en-
large the home"
Mr.. Fitch pointed out that the or
phanage directors show no partially in
the matter of denominations or reli-
gious creeds in taking children into the
c~sphanage.
