 SANiTARIUM IMPRISONMENT

CHICAGO, Dec. 31.-Suit for $30O,- 900 against Doctor Sanger Brown and others connected with the Ken ilworth santarium here has been filed Il behalf of James B. Sheean, Trenton, N. J., former vice presi- dent and general counsel of the Chcago and Northwestern railroad, who alleged that he was illegally detained in the sanitarium and lost his position and an annual salary of $3O,OOO as a consequence.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-A college woman thinks faster than a college man while driving an auto, but tax icab driver thinks fastest of all. This fact was indicated by tests before the annual convention of the National Civil Service Reform League. Two revolvers were mounted on the under side of the running board of an auto mobile. One was fired by an exami- ner pulling wire and the other auto matically when the driver started to apply the brakes. The test was to determine how quickly the drivers

Noise Bombs Used To
 Protect Oyster Beds

OLYMPIA, Wash, Dec. 31.-Con- fronted with the ruinous devastation of their oyster beds by the predatory activities of coots and bluebills and prevented from routing the invaders by the shotgun process because of the Federal migratory bird act, members of the Olympia Oysteer Growers as sociation have launched novel cam paign of bloodlless "frightfulness" to protect their bivalves, according to E. N. Steele, secretary of the organiza- tion.
 With the reported approval of state fish and game officials speedy launch has been equipped with an especially designed gun which dis charges blue carbide flame into the air at regular intervals and the launch is also provided with mortar which discharges smoke and noise bombs into the air a distance of 150 yards, to reach out over the exposed beds when the ClQo IS too IOW tO app oeaCH the feeding birds.
 Piloted by Harry H. Redick, for mer service man this craft will cruise about the beds belching flames and hurling it's noise bombs in hopes that the thousands of birds which feed on the oysters may be routed without depicting the game supply or running counter to federal game provisions, it was stated.
 The depredations of wild fowl on the beds first drew the attention of oyster growers about 15 years ago, and the present measure grew out of the necessity for controlling the activities of the common foe. Obser- vations made by Federal employees re- vealed the fact that coOts and blue bills were the chief offenders. A pa trolman employed three years ago to shoot ducks, however, got in bad with the Federal game wardens and shoot ing was abandoned

PAVING PRICE IS
 FAIRLY UNIFORM
Dickson Submits Figures Gathered From South
 ern Cities

Comparison of cost per square yard between paving laid in Birmingham and similar paving in cities of Bir- minghan's class in this part of the south was announced Monday morning in the city hall by Commissioner W. E Dickson, who has supervision over the department of streets.
 Questions having arisen regarding the comparative costs of paving and material used in Birmingham and other southern cities, Commissioner Dickson asked City Engineer A. J. Hawkins tp get in touch with Memphis, New Or leans. Atlanta, Chattanooga and other points for the prices they pay for pay ing similar to that put down in. Bir- mingham.
 On a comparison sheet Mir. Hawkins has set out the names of the towns, specifications of materials used, sorts of materials and other data of an engi- neering nature in regard to paving ex- penses. This MT. Dickson offered for inspection by anyone interested.
 Figures on sheet asphalt, per square yard, are as follows:
 Birmingham, Finch concrete base, two and a half asphalt top, $2,32 New Orleans, $3.61; Mobile, $2.35 Chattanooga, $2,95; Little Rock. $3.o5 Memphis, $2.S5; Knoxville, $2.61.
 Commissioner Dickson explained that not all of these towns use the same base as Birmingham and some oi them vary the thickness of the sur. facing.

No other candidates were indorsed, although committee Chattanooga, $2,75; Little Rock, $2.40; Jacksonville, $292; Memphis, $2.S5.
 Bithulitic surfacing or paving, it was explained, did not offer a wide range of towns for comparison, in this part of the country, though there is much of it I in Montgomery.

 1rl regard to Portland cement paving. in Birmingham, laid in thickness of seven inches, it was explained, the cost would be approximately $40.
 Mobile and New Orleans, because of freight rates in some instances, make a better showing than inland communi- ties. The prices quoted are not the lowest ever paid by Birmingham, but those prevalent now and recently paid.

DESCRIBES RAVAGE
 OF BOIL WEEVILS
Jefferson Playes Lauded At Ex-
 change Club Meeting

Business men of Birmingham do not realize what the boil weevil Is costing the people of Alabama" declared w. C. Lassetter. managing editor of the Pro- gressive Farmer, in an address Monday to the members of the Exchange club in the ball room of the Tutwller. Ninety million dollars was the figure placed by the speaker on the amount of cotton now consumed in Alabama by the weevil Many business men who con slider that Birmingham depends for Its prosperity upon coal, iron and steel, fail to realize what big item of trade the money obtained from the sale of cotton is in the economic life of Ala bama. according to Mir. Lasseter.
 While he stated that the boil weevil can be controlled at an expense of S5 per acre, the speaker said that an even greater problem was that of getting the farmer to operate on a business basis. "The present system of paying bills and having an income only once year IS more serious problem for the Ala banla farmer than that of fighting the boil weevil," said Mir. Iassetter. What the farmers of Alabama need and must have is an income every week in the year instead of the present system of buying all me year OH creult anu nav ing money only in the fall. Dairy prod ucts and poultry. especially eggs. offer the farmer the opportunity of getting on a cash basis and having money throughout the year with which to meet the necessary expenses

Already, he declared. merchants of Birmingham were receiving considerable benefits in the form of trade from people attracted to Birmingham to attend the perform ances given by the Jefferson Resident players.
 Edmund Armes introduced a resolu- ton, which was unanimously adopted, indorsing the Jefferson Resident play CTS and pledging the members of the club to lend their support to this or ganization.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Harvard and Yale will come to grips tomorrow in the bowl at New Haven, with the Blue top heavy favorite among crit ics, to capture the forty-third battle between these ancient rivals.
 But though the Ellis are overwhelm- ingly favored to win the "big three ti- tie by downing the Crimson and finish their second straight season undefeated, the vast and colorful crowd of oO,OOO persons that will fill the amphitheater to it's outer fringes expects a typic- ally hard fought struggle. Past per formances favor Yale but it takes only glance at the 1924 record to show how little they have frequently meant and Harvard followers, mindful of the up- sets that have marked both "big three games 80 far, are confident the Crimson will complete the cycle by overthrowlng the Blue.
 Tomorrow unfolds wealth of grid iron tradition, for'besides the Harvard Yale encounter, the other outstanding eastern games involve long rivalries.
 Syracuse Meets Colgate
 At Syracuse Chick Meehan's Orange eleven, toppled recently by West Vir- | ginia Wesleyan from its undefeated perch, faces Colgate, beaten by Nebras- ka and West Virginia in the Maroon s biggest games, with prospects of a closely waged battle for upstate gridiron supremacy.
 At Easton, Pa., Lafayette and Le- high renew a struggle inaugurated 40 years ago with the Leopards striving to come back, while Lehigh battles to keep her place among the five major unbeaten teams in the east.
 Only three of the teams fighting for eastern title honors will; be seen in action. Besides Yale and 'Lehigh, the powerful Rutgers outfit with one of the best records of all, will close it's sea son at Philadelphia with Bucknell which conquered the Navy week ago. Of the other unbeaten outfits, Pennsyl- vania has no game scheduled in order to concentrate on preparations for the annual game with Cornell Thankskiv- ing day, while Dartmouth has rested her case with a record of seven victories and a tie with Yale.
 Eli Has Advantage | In the most spectacular of tomorrow s | games, Yale seems to have marked ad- vantages over Harvard in both offen- sive and defensive skill. Though con- siderably below the standard of it's great ! 1923 array, the Blue completely stopped | the Princeton onslaught that over- whelmed Harvard The Ellis have great CT strength on the ends and possess more abundant and capable back field | material.

MANY FANS TO
 SEE THE GAME
Mercer And Oglethorpe Play For s. |. A. A.
 Title

ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 21.-(Special.) More than 10000 fans are expected to see the battle between Mercer and Ogle- thorpe here Saturday, for the champion ship of the S. I. A. A. The game has been designated as the Home Coming affair of the Petrels and the fact that the two teams are so evenly matched will attract the regular fans of thls city. More then GOO Mercer students have chartered a special train to bring them here from Macon for the game.
 While Centre College, as yet unde- feated by a southern team IS mem Der of the S. 1. A. A, it is not thought that they will despite any claim to the title Centre has not only one $. l. A. A., fore. Pennsylvania. On the other hand Mercer has scored impressive victories over Howard. Wofford, and Chattanooga, and Oglethorpe has con quered Howard, Wofford, Citadel and Sewanee, a member of both the con- ference and S. I. A. A.
 Title At Stake
 Atlanta, Birmingham, Macon and other sport writers of nearby cities have agreed that the game will settle all claims to the title and in accord ance with their agreement will recognize the winner as the champion. As Ed Danford, sporting editor of the Georgia and Sunday Ameican puts it. Tt is doubtful whether or not Centre will even lay claim to the title"
 Mercer just last week triumphed over Florida University, while the Petrels made great showing and held the westerners to an IS to victory.
