OgIethorpe Beat Sewanee

Oglethorpe Beat Sewanee
 Oglethorpe comes to Birmingham fresh from to o victory over Se- vance last Saturday. The Petrels clear ly outplayed the Tigers, reports of that game say, and that fact is definite in- dication of the strength of the foe the Bulldogs must face today.
 A team of stars is presented by the Georgia institution, it is stated. Among the number three stand out prominently, Captain Adrian Maurer, mentioned for all-Southern halfback last year; Bob Kilgore, fullback, whose plunges tore Sewanee's line to pieces last Saturday, and Parrish, giant linesman, weighing around 230 pounds, and every inch of his six feet five inches typified by the word, Man." The work of these three will be watched in this afternoons bat tie at Redwood.
 Bulldog Crippled
 The Bulldogs have more or less crippled team and send on the field against the Petrels. Although only two of the regulars will be on the sidelines when the game begins, others will be in the fray who will be more or less handi- capped by injuries. Rascal Kelly and Hubby Brooks, tackle and guard, respec- lively, will not be able to start the game this afternoon, due to injuries which have kept them out of the practices dur ing the week.
 Howard, undoubtedly caught off it's balance by Spring Hill last Saturday, will make determined effore to stage a comeback today. A victory over Oglethorpe would more than offset that defeat by the Hillians, and go long ways towards putting the East Lake squad in the proper frame of mind as the big game with the Panthers hears.

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-The first of the casts outstanding gridiron classics will be enacted tomorrow at Cambridge when Harvard will go into battle against Princeton in the opening fight for the 1924 Big Three" championship.
 The Crimson, with heavier, more experienced line and more capable array of backs, will be decided favorite, but the Tigers, resourceful and fighting their hardest when facing the heaviest odds, will not go down to defeat with out making brilliant stand.
 On the seasons record to date Harvard figures to have an advantage of about two touchdowns over Prince ton. The Crimson tasted its only de- feat by the margin of a touchdown at the hands of Dartmouth, while the Iii gers were tied by Lehigh, barely beat the Navy and were decisively whipped by Notre Dame. But past perform ances have seldom been an accurate barometer in these three big clashes. Princeton, while lacking the material of Harvard, may find itself in the first big test.
 50,OOO To See Game
 Nearly fifty thousand persons will witness the HarvardPrinceton spec tacle, while several hundred thousand more will see the remaining features of the casts gridiron schedule, which in- cludes five games of intersectional in- terest and the second of the New Eng land little three" series, in which Williams will be favored to down Wes leyan at Williamstown, Mass.
 Yale encounters her third intersec- tional opponent in Maryland. The southerners gave the Ellis their prin- cipal scare of the 1923 season, losing by two points after a great battle, but the Bulldog looks to have decided edge this season.

MARBLE PLAYERS
 IN RINGER TOURNEY
tcontinued from First Page)

This is a fine chance for some boy or girl and one parent to have au outing of . week at Atlantic City with no cost to either of the vaca- tionists. One of the biggest hotels along the famous Board Walk will house the players at the expense of the Herald and the Junior Achieve ment Foundation. Be sure. and fill out your entry, young fellow or lady, and get it into headquarters before it is too late.
 Last evening the Herald published the rules of the game and the ex- pressionsf common 10 the game of Ringer" Tonight we are publish ing demonstration of the play. Save both rules and demonstration and get in some practice beforehand Here is a sample game:
 The New Britain Herald marble edi- tor reprints today few suggestions which will tend to make it easier for the hundreds Of boys and girls inter- ested in the coming marble cham pionship tournament to understand the game of ringer" the official game to be played.
 Easy To Understand
 Most Of the boys and girls under stand ringer the first time, but there are few who do not. and it is for these few that this aid is of- fered.
 Now we are ready 10 play a game or ringer
 The first thing is to lagg for a line to see who will go first.
 Now study figure l.

1 knuckles down. Just before he shoots | figure shows the way the ring looks in this particular game. The white marble at the lower right hand edge is the white marble boy No. l almost knocked out and didn't. Boy No. , could snap from ring edge right close to this marble if he chose, but in this instance we are assuming he decided to start as picture No. G shows. The black marble near the upper right hand edge is boy No. Is taw or snap per. Oh, yes, he has to leave it there.
 There are several things that can happen on boy No. 2's shot. If he knocks out marble. of course he puts it in his pocket and has another turn. If he knocks boy No. Is snapper out of ring, that means that boy No. 1 is thereby put out of the game for keeps. and boy No. 1 must give boy No. ? all the marbles he has previously knocked out of the ring.
 However, if, on that shot of boy No. , he hit boy No. Is snapper. but did not knock it from the ring, it would mean that boy No. 2 would DtCh up Oft VI lht ihoib btNS ih t"S '''o as a reward, and still have another turn. As far as hitting boy No. Is snapper again, he can't do that after such a play until he has actually knocked another marble out of the ring. That makes him alive again on the other chaps taw and if he knocks him out this time 1t is goodbye No. l.
 Now, of course, these things as pie tured above do not happen in the or der of the picture. but those pictures tell you about the game if yon study them closely. You see under some conditions, il is not wise to let your taw stay in the ring for the next fel- low to shoot at, so when you realize there is some doubt whether you may knock marble out Of the ring, il might be wise if you miss it to have your taw go sailing out. so that the next man will not have fl 10 play on.
 This brings us 10 figure ', the last enc.

We will assume here that both boys have had several turns by this time. and that on his last shot boy No. 1 cleaned out the ring. but as the last marble went out, his taw or snapper remained inside the circle. As long as there is marble Of any kind inside the circle, the game is still alive. Well. it is easy 10 see that if boy No. Is snapper remained inside the circle with nothing to shoot al. that he would have to give way 10 boy No. 2. Now. it would not be quite fair un- der such an occasion. which comes only seldom. for boy No. to shoot right close 10 the ring edge. So fig

ure z, above. shows what is done in such case. Boy No. 1 under the direction of the referee picks up his taw or snapper and places it on the ring line. Boy No. goes directly opposite and knuckles down for his shot. Now if he hits boy No. Is snapper across the 10-foot space. boy No. loses the game and has to give up all his marbles for the final count tof course. to be personally returned to him later). If boy No. does not hit him boy No. wins the game if he has the greatest number of mar bles in his pocket at the time.
 Study carefully. boys and girls. and then go out and try it. Ii is great game when, you learn how. Hundreds of boys will soon be playing in the great tournament throughout New Britain,

This figure shows boy No. 1 shoot Ing. Good for him-he knocks one Of the marbles out of the ring. and his snapper or t.w. which is black in the picture. hounces back and stays in the ring. Now what happens? Well, Of course. inasmuch as the boy with the largest number of marbles in his pocket at the end of the game wins, you can just bet that boy No. goes and picks up that marble he has knocked out of the ring and puts it in his pocket But in knocking that marble out of the ring it gives him the right to another turn. All right, now let us study figure 4.

The tsw or snapper is the black ono, you re- member. You see on this turn boy No. did not get marble out of the ring. sn that means that at last it is boy No. 2's turn. This brings us 10 figure 6.
