sBO M'MILLIN IS CHOICE OF CENTRE
Students Unanimous In Wish To Have Former Star
 In Charge

DANvILLE, Ky, Jan. 1.-The spirit of prayer preceding important football games, symbolic of Centre college gridiron contests, is pervad- ing the minds of many of the staunch followers of the Praying Colonels in the matter of selection of coach to succeed Uncle Charlie" Moran. A meeting has been called for Tuesday night when possible selection may be made. Just one name has been prominently mentioned for the posi- tion, "Bo" McMillin, around whom fans throughout. the country have associated the coforful nick name -6f the little Kentucky college.
 Centre has a heavy schedule ahead of it in 1924, one of the most impress siye in it's history. Only one men- Der of the 1923 squad. a substitute backfield man will be lost by gradua- ton, nevertheless a new coach with an entirely new system could hardly hope to reap any big harvest in grid circles next fall. Thus the legions of Centres supporters are hoping Nc Millin will be called back to the school where he gained fame as he already knows the Moran attack, whereas a coach from another school. they reason, would require a year, two years, or more to build up. the Centre machine to the heights under his system that 1t has reached in the past.

CREE PUTS FIRST TITLE OF SEASON
 AT STAKE FRIDAY

NEW YORK. Jan. 14.--Howling Harry Greb, the human motor horn, so-called because he squawks louder and longer than any other boxer when defeated. will give New York the first glimpse of fighter de- fending title that the city has caught since the indoor season be- gan, when he chambers into the ring at the garden Friday night to fight Johnny Wilson.
 Harry, who also initiates a police whistle when in good voice, has been training in a soundproof room so as to be able to outsquawk himself if he should lose the title to Wilson, from whom he won it at the Polo Grounds just before the close of the open air season.
 q wish to assure my public" said Mir. Greb, "that I shall be squawking better than ever if I am defeated."s
 Mir. Greb is noted for two classic bleats emitted after being defeated in New York. The first time. after Gene Tunney had beaten him all over the ring, he said he had been "heh up" by New York prize fight inter- ests for a contribution of $S.000 for When the boxing commission evinced an official interest in the case, Greb unsquawked his squawk.
 A few weeks ago when Tunney got a shady decision over him, Greb caroled another piece entitled "the losers lament" in four sharps and 50-50 time. In this offering he di- rected suspicion at the honesty of the judges. A day later he denied saying any such thing.
 In preparation for Friday nights fight. Mir. Greb has already prepared his denials.
 q was robbed and everybody in New York is crooked" runs the post bellum communique which Greb has composed. The statement winds up with q deny all the foregoing"
 Greb may be whipped at the mid dleweight limit. He was weakened in making the weight for Wilson in the autumn and cannot be in pos session of his full strength at 16O bounds. Wilson has been fighting much better since he lost the cham pionship than he ever did before he won if.

Game Scheduled For Eight O'Clock Tuesday Night At Simpson Gym

The Purple Tornado of Simpson Tech will meet the Tiger of Besse- mer High school this evening at o'clock on the Techsters' court, the two teams meeting for the second time this season as the Techsters defeated the Bessemer quintet by A to Is Friday at the opening high school game for the Purple and Gold cagesters.
 A good game Is expected during the evening, as Bessemer is by no means down cast on account of the game last week and are determined to get revenge from the Simpson five. The Tornado Is expected to display it's, usual form and an in- teresting, fast game is promised those present.
 The first. game of. the season spoke well for Purple and fGoId prospects. for Besse emer hasa strong team of, the Techsters. The most promis- ing part of the game Friday was tho showing made by Johnson Ellis, Tor nado forward, who came second in the scoring for the evening and showing that Simpson will have at least one forward this season who will possibly excel the work of Senn of last year, the only hole in the Teehsters' offense being stoppcS In case Ellis continues the good work started Friday.
 Starts Trip Soon.
 The Tornado will leave on it's first trip of the year. touring the south ern part. of the state and Mississippi and meeting Sydney Lanier, Green vile, Barton and Gulf Coast with a final game with the Poets in Mont gomery on the way home. In the meantime the Tornado will meet nary Friday, both games being played at 8 o'clock on, the Simpson court.
 With Byrd back at center and Vim cent at guard the. Tornado will have two all-state men on it's team this season with Wilking, Wright and other second. string men of last year cent, brother of Slick" is also showing up well as is Dewey Byrd. who also has brother who ranked all-state last year. James Harris. Russell Malloy and 8 number of oth- CT candidates are also doing some good work. which has earned them a number of chances for'service with the varsity.
 Under the direction of Coach Webb, the Purple Tornado is be- ginning to again mount the ladder which led for the past two years to the state championship. and, judging from the climbing ability shown when mounting the first rung, the quintet should come. out close to the top again this year.
 Both Bessemer and the Purple Tor nado will meet Snead Seminary of Boaz during the latter part of the week, this week marking the begin ning~of the active basketball season for Birmingham, although number of games have already been played. The Tigers have met a number of teams during the past. receiving their first defeat at the hands of the Techsters.

MUCH INTEREST IS CREATED M CLUB
Advent Of National Guard In Fight Promoting Draws
 Much Attention

Capt. Harry F. Smith. in charge of the athletic program which is to in augurate the entrance of the Nat ional Guard Athletic club into the Field of impresarioing Friday nigh { at the old post office building, stated Monday night that he was being swamped with telephone calls and in- quiries about the big card. which will use Chick Branch, sensational south ern welterweight. and Johnny Me Ginty in a 10-round headliner.
 From all indications we are going to play to a big crowd on our pre-. miere." said Captain Smith, "and while we do not expect to fill all of the 2,000 seats we have installed on our initial show, we do plan to put on such bouts of merit that in the course of a few weeks our attend ances will top the 2,O00 mark. The money derived from our athletic cards will go into the guard treasury for decorating and beautifying our present quarters. the old post office building"
 Captain Smith added that Branch, who had first planned to come in from Atlanta Tuesday would not reach town until Wednesday. Walk Miller assures me. however. that hls man is in great physical shape and is going gunning for the local lrlsh- man In real style"
 Thomas Mulrennan. who has been placed in charge of the national guard bouts. reports that having sewed up his headline attraction he is going right ahead arranging an all-star card of preliminary boys. "Kid Lotts and Tommy Taylor will furnish a hectic wrestling session. said Mulrannan. land I have in store a farce comedy In the form of bat tie royal. Five husky sons of Ham will furnish the laughs in this thriller. through the process of elim- ination.
 "We appreciate the great start the people have already given us by promising to support our shows" said MT. Mulrennan, "and to show our appreciation, after the McGinty- Branch fight is over we will go right ahead arranging another series of matches for the latter part of Janu- ary and February. Now, that Tommy Gibbons Is to fight Jack Dempsey in the spring. I may not be able to get him here before summer, but Tommy Is coming to Birmingham, and you can bank on that. He has given me his word that he would box here for the national guard.'
