WANT BALLOTING BE MADE PUBLIC
St. Louis Writers Say Hornsby Should Be
 Best

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Dec. GA reso lution adopted by the St. Louis chapter of the Baseball Writers association of America and asking President Heydler of the National league to publish the details of the balloting by which Arthur "Dazzy" Vance, Brooklyn pitcher, was voted the most valuable player of the league was made public here today.
 While no reference is made in the resolution, it is understood the local baseball writers were disappointed at Rogers Hornsby's failure to receive this years award. This is indicated in an open letter addressed to President Heydler and published in a local aft ernoon paper, which requests Mir. Heyd' Ter to bring the matter before the National league meeting next week.
 In the open letter, attention is called 10 the fact that Hornsby, second base man of the local National league team has led his league mates in batting for the last five sections and that this record should have received some re cognition.
 In concluding the resolution, the base ball writers of this city ask Mir. Heyd Ter that steps be taken to modify the rules governing the best player award so that details of all future ballotinG as well as that of the recent award bt made public"

AUBURN, Ala, Dec. 6-(Speclai.) The Auburn football schedule for the 1925 season has been completed ana was announced today by the Auburn athletic officials.
 Only one change in games to be played is noted from the program of the season just passed. The University ot Texas will be met in Dallas instead or Louisiana State University who was an Auburn foe the past season and was met in Birmingham.
 The game with the Texas Longhorns will mark the fourth invasion Of the Auburn Tigers to the Lone Star state. In 1910 the Plainsmen lost to the Uni verSity of Texas In last quarter rally by 9 to o score. In 1911 the AuDur- mites made two trips to the west, poth attempts being unsuccessful. In thelr game with the Texas and M. Farmers they lost by score of 1G to while in the same season they took the small end of an IS to 5 score in their game against the University of Texas.
 Interesting Tales
 A number of interesting stories have been told concerning the Texas trips in 191O-11. One of the most interest ing perhaps occurred on the last trip to play the Texas U. Lonshorn eleven. It seems that after the Alabamians had already made one trip to the west that several of the regulars, along with Mike Donahue, were stricken with fever, and with this contingent confined to sick rooms, Coach Reynolds Tichenor, then assistant football coach. gathered to- rether a number of substitutes and crip- ples and set out for the game in Dallas Most notable among the cripples was John Davis, then mainstay at fullback who had broken shoulder or crippled to such an extent that it was neces' sary to transport him from point to point in a truck. At a crucial moment in the game Davis was sent into the fray with the task of carrying the ball over, which he did and scored the only touchdown that Auburn has been able to record against tne Texas elevens.
 On Oct 10 the Tigers will meet Vir ginia Polytechnic Institute on the

PANTHER TEAMS
 WORKING HARD Class Battles Are To Be Staged Tuesday And
 Wednesday

After week of strenuous training in the form of scrimmages and signal drills, the class teams at Birmingham Southern have developed into football machines of real strength, and now anxiously await the referees whistle, which will officially open the champion ship series at the Hilltop school.
 The first game will be next Tuesday, between the Freshies and Juniors. The Sophs and Seniors will clash Wednes- day, and the winners of the two games will meet in the championship battle Friday afternoon, according to present plans of the student athletic commit tee. All games will be played on Mun- ger Bowl, the committee announced.
 Four Teams
 Since Monday afternoon, regular workouts have been held on the college s athletic field. The four teams occupy different sections of the bowl, and under the directorship of the student coaching staffs present a busy scene as they go through the strenuous performances. Only men who did not go out for varsity or Freshman football are eligible for the class teams. Approximately sixty  candidates have been reporting for practice daily. The Sophomores, Jun iors and Seniors have around sixteen men each, according to estimates made Friday.
 Coaches for the different classes were selected at the weekly meeting Mon day, and are from the ranks of football regulars. They are: Seniors. "Red Farr and Ham" Weeks; Juniors, Greek" Griffin, Turner Scott and Leon Stevenson; Sophomores. Curly Black and Sid Malloy; Freshmen, "Yank'' Miller, Bob Bowden and Rat" Allen.
 The Seniors will be hard-pushed in their game unless their players come out more regularly. It is thought, how ever, that their ranks will be strength ened, and although the odds for a win for them over the SOphomores are slight they still have the remembrance of the school championship victory last year which they won as Juniors. and this may serve as an incentive to renewed activity on their part.

OUANTICO TEAM
 DEFEATS ARMY

BALTIMORE SATDIUM, BALTI- MORE, Dec 6-Sloshing up and down a combat zone that was half water and half land, the great Amphibean football team representing the United States marine corps base at Quantico, Va, an initiated the Third Army corps team Saturday afternoon, notwithstanding the fact that the Army had three former West Point football men and some other players with intercollegiate records available for the fray.
 The marines won A to 0 and the battle was such an uneven affair that many of the spectators broke camp and went home before the last quarter was played. It was pretty much an army crowd, too, for this is the army's own territory and the marines were the in vaders for the day. The huge Balti- more stadium was about half-filled with 35,000 people.
 Orville Neal, the marine half, got loose for a 50-yard run to a touchdown in the first few minutes of play. Neal Goettge and McQuade were the cavalry and destroyer flotilla in the land-and water attack and the army, flounderinG in the mud, was unable to check them at any stage of the game. Neal repeat edly darted straight through the army $ line for long gains.

 The "rat" squad should be as strong as the varsity team this year. In Vincent, Holder, Vines, Mershon, Pep ger, Wesley and Smith, they have sew eral cage artists who have gained great distinction in the state. Vincent, while playing for Simpson Tech, also per formed for the Birmingham Athletic club five. He is a forward of no mean ability.

SUES WHEN SON
 PLAYS FOOTBALL

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec. 6.-Al- leging that her son. Wendall. 16, was permitted to take part in a football game in 1922 against her expressed wishes, Mrs. Pearl V. Hatch has insti tuted suit in circuit court against the Kansas Military Academy, Oswego, Kan, and Clyde R. Terry. former superintendent of the institution, for $5,000 damages.
 Mrs. Hatch asserts that she directed the school authorities not to permit her son to take part in any violent exercise as Wendall was frail.
