Twenty-five seniors and one regu­lar
army officer were elected, to Scab­bard
and Blade at the society's first
meeting of the year last Tuesday
night and were officially tapped at
the regular drill period yesterday
morning.
Included in the list of newly elect­ed
are twenty men from the Field
Artillery unit and five from the En­gineer
unit.
Those elected are (Field Artillery) :
W^W. Beck, W. J. Bowers, R. O.

of the regular army Field Ar­tillery
Staff was elected.
Each spring, upon recommendation
of the military department, junior
cadets are selected to membership in
Scabbard and Blade. The honorary
society selects to its membership only
those students who evidencey exem­plary
service in their courses in- the
military department. The second elec­tion
is held in the early fall of each
school year, at which time seniors
are elegible for election.
Scabbard and Blade is an organiza­tion
for courses only in military
training. Company L of the. Fifth
Regiment was established at Auburn
in the spring of 1924. The purpose
of this-society is to raise the stand­ards
of military training in American
colleges, to unite in,closer relation­ships
their military departments, to
encourage the essential qualities of
good officers, and to promote intimacy
and fellowship between cadets. Mem­bership
is not based upon display of
military efficiency alone, but also
upon qualities of character and man­hood.
Initiation of the pledges will take
place within the near future. As is
the custom, the initiation will consist
of one public appearance, the remain­ing
stages to take place outside the
town of Auburn.

ELECTRICAL COMPANY
EMPLOYS 1933 GRADS
Seven of the 1933 graduates in
electrical engineering at the Ala­bama
Polytechnic Institute will be se­lected
immediately by Prof. St. C.
Dunstan, head of this department, to
become employees of the Westing-house
Electric Company at East
Pittsburgh, Pa. They will enter the
training school and thereby prepare
for bigger service for the company.
These seven are in addition to three
others already selected, the three be­ing
A. C. Cohen, Charles Payne, and
R. S. Williams, who have reported
for duty.
For many years Auburn graduates
in electrical engineering have been
selected in larger numbers by the
Westinghouse Electric Company. The
practice was to enter the training
school and to advance from there to
other positions. This school was sus­pended
temporarily during the de­pression
but reopened this summer.
Requests came immediately to Pro­fessor
Dunstan to select and recom­mend
Auburn men, in view of the out­standing
records made in the past
A beloved pioneer citizen of Auburn,
Mrs. James T. Anderson, 78, was laid
to rest here Thursday morning beside
her revered husband, the late Dr. An­derson,
at the local cemetery following
funeral services from the Methodist
Church. The Rev.^R. B. McGehee
officiated.
Mrs. Anderson died Tuesday even­ing
following an illness of seven
months. Seventeen years «go Dr.
Anderson died here after spending
many years of successful work with
the Alabama Polytechnic Institute as
research chemist. Both of them .had
many friends among Auburn residents
and the numbers of students who
boarded at their home after they came
to Auburn in the late eighties.
Typical of the many life-long
friends among the older alumni who
boarded at the house of Dr and Mrs.
Anderson is Dr. William Groce Har­rison
of Birmingham who lived at
their home prior to his graduation
here in 1890. Dr. Harrison made the
trip to Auburn Wednesday to attend
to funeral arrangements and to, pay
homage to the memory of Mrs, An­derson.
Those serving as pallbearers were
Prof. H. B. Tisdale, W. D. Gibson,
Clifton Jones, A. D. Lipscomb, Dr.
George Petrie, and* Homer Wright.
Thomas Bragg of Birmingham, M.
A. Barnes of Opelika, S. L. Toomer,
Prof. B. H. Crenshaw, Dean C. L.
Hare, and Dean John J. Wilmore were
designated as honorary pallbearers'.
Mrs. Anderson was born in Clarks-ville,
Tenn., in 1865. Surviving are
one sister, Mrs. M. B. Murrell of Val­halla,
N. Y., and one nephew, T. E.
Murrell of New York City.

NOTICE!
" According to a recent announce­ment
from the Athletic Department
the date of the Howard-Auburn game
in Birmingham, has been changed to
Friday night, September .29. The
game will begin at eight o'clock. The
price of regular reserved tickets will
be $1.10.
The American Society of Mechani­cal
Engineers held its first meeting
of the year Monday night at Ramsay
Hall. The meeting, presided oyer by
the president, Frank G. Keller, was
attended by a large number of stu­dents
and faculty members.
Prof. Hixon volunteered to act as
Honorary Chairman from the faculty
while Lieut. Finch, the elected chair­man,
is away from the college on
leave of absence. The hour of meet­ing
was changed from 7:45 to 7:00
o'clock in order thai the students
might be less interrupted " in their
studies on the nights of the societies
meetings. Doug Wallace was elect­ed
secretary-treasurer to succeed F.
E. White.
After the business of the society
was completed, Prof. J. W. Roe, of
the Foreign Languages department,
made an interesting as well as educa­tional
talk on. "Construction of
Bridges in Alsace-Lorraine.
Prof. Roe described in detail sev­eral
bridges along the Rhine River.
Most of these bridges have been well
fortified with machine guns and light
field pieces by the French in case
the Germans should attack their coun­try.
Next Prof. Roe spoke of the
thousands of castles which line the
banks of the Rhine. "The castles,"
stated Prof. Roe, "which have foun­dations
of rock, have walls built of
massive stones, these walls offering
great resistance to an opposing army
before the usage of the cannon. One
of these castles was completely re­stored
by the Kaiser William at the
cost of hundreds of thousands of
dollars while Alsace-Lorraine was in
the possession of Germany., All the
implements of war and the castle fur­niture
of those former days were
again replaced within the walls of
this olden fortress". Later in nis
speech, Prof. Roe spoke of traveling
in all-aluminum train coaches "which
travel at the rate of 80 to 90 miles
per hour on lovel track. The engines,
which apparently have several ad­vantages
over the American ones, are
able to start and stop in a much
smoother manner than ours are."
Prof. Roe concluded his talk by say­ing
that "the French write of Ameri­ca
as being a financial anarchy. This
condition is very- depressing to them."
The next meeting of the society
will be held on Oct. 2 in 109 Ramsay
Hall at 7:00, at which time Prof.
Roy Goslin, of the Physics Dept., will
speak. Members of the student body
and' faculty are cordially invited to
attend.

As a preliminary to the Auburn-
Southern game in Montgomery to­night,
an old fashioned "pep-fest" was
held at seven-thirty o'clock in Lang­don
Hall last night under the guid­ance
of Head Cheerleader Ed Prewitt
and his newly elected corps of assist­ants.
Cheers resounded from the nass
meeting far into the night as shouts
of "War Eagle" and "Eat Um Up
Tigers" were'heard everywhere.
The meeting last night was some­what
different from those of previous
years in that there was no torch light
ing the freshmen- on yells and the
Alma Mater. Prewitt urged every­one
to sing the song when the band
takes the field between halves to­night.
It is the plan of the cheer
directors this year to spend much time
on practicing yells in order to have
a well-drilled arid organized cheering
section.
A parade through the streets of
Auburn with "Biddie" Bidez's crack
band in the van picked up scores of
students and the crowd numbered ap­proximately
one thousand by the time
the meeting was well underway.
One of the special attractions on
the program was the appearance of
the cheerleaders in new uniforms
which consisted of white flannel trou­sers
trimmed with gold and blue braid
and a white sweater with "Auburn"
emblazoned across the front.
Bill Ham, head cheerleader of last
year, spoke briefly on "Auburn
Spirit". "That Auburn spirit" is the
one thing we are famous for through­out
the southland; let's show the spec­tators

VANDERBILT HISTORY
DEAN VISITS AUBURN
Dr. F. L. Owsley, graduate of the
Alabama Polytechnic Institute from
Elmore County and now acting head
of the history department of Van-derbilt
University, was a recent visi­tor
on the campus. For the past year
Dr. Owsley has been on leave of ab­sence
from Vanderbilt as a Traveling
Guggenheim Fellow in Europe.
Dr. Owsley graduated at Auburn
in 1911 and was a classmate of Dr.
A, B. Moore, history department head
at the University of Alabama. Later
he assisted in the history department
here and was professor of history at
Birmingham-Southern. He took his
M. S: degree at Auburn in 1912 and
his doctorate at the University of
Chicago.
Dr. Owsley is a well-known writer.
He is author of "State Rights in the
Confederacy", "King Cotton Diplo­macy",
and has attracted national at­tention
in the past few weeks by his
article, "The Third Crusade."
At Vanderbilt, Dr. Owsley is fol­lowing
in the footsteps of another Au­burn
alumnus, the late Dr. William
L. Fleming, former head of the his­tory
department and dean at that in­stitution.
Both received their first
college training in history here un­der
Dr. George Petrie, history de­partment
head and graduate school
dean, who a few days ago began his
45th year of service at the Alabama
Polytechnic Institute!

RELATIONS GROUP TO
MEET TUESDAY NIGHT
International Group Was Or­ganized
Here In 1930 And
Membership Has Grown
With \he new scholastic year set­tling
into its definite .routine, the In­ternational
Relations Club of Ala­bama
Polytechnic Institute announces
its initial meeting to be held Tues­day,
September 26, at seven o'clock
in the history office in Samford Hall.
At that time Prof. O. T. Ivey, Au­burn's
authority on South American
and Far Eastern affairs, will speak
on "The 1933 Revolt in Cuba". In
order to acquaint those who are in­terested
with the character and aims
of the "club, the president, James
Vann, has issued an invitation to stu­dents
of all schools to attend the meet­ing
Tuesday night. In this way, he
states, the club hopes to meet those
students who are attracted by the
field of international scope.
The International Relations Club,
organized in" 1930, is the only group
on the Auburn campus with so wide
a range of interest. Its membership
is composed of upperclassmen who
evince an interest in international af­fairs
and who have attained a grade
average of sufficient quality to meet
the requirements of the constitution
of the club. This membership is re­stricted
to no single department or
school, and upon the qualifying of
any prospective member, an invita­tion
is extended' to that person. The
membership is limited, the nature of
the club being of such cosmopolitan
and wide-spread variety that a select
group must be gathered. Under the
leadership of its faculty advisor, Mr.
Ivey, the club has formed the nucleus
of international thought on the cam­pus.
The Auburn club is the only club
in the national organization that con­tinues
its meetings in the summer
sessions. One of the highlights of
the recent summer term was the ad­dress
of Miss Mary Winn, a secre­tary
from the national headquarters
in New York. Miss Winn spoke be­fore
a convocation of summer school
students and congratulated the Au­burn
group on its progressive spirit, j

The finishing touches have been ap­plied
and the Auburn Plainsmen are
ready for the season's openerN tonight
at Cramton Bowl with Birmingham-
Southern. Advance ticket sales have
exceeded all expectations and close to
10,000 fans are expected to pack the
bowl tonight in the Tigers' lone ap­pearance
in the Capitol City.
Coach Wynne with a squad of ap­proximately
45 players, will leave at
5:30 this afternoon by bus for the
scene of the battle, arriving in Mont­gomery
just before the game. Most
of the students, including the Au­burn
band, and many of the towns­people
are expected to take advan­tage
of the special rates offered by
the Western of Alabama and embark
on the train this afternoon. A huge
parade, headed by the band, is sched­uled
to be held on the arrival of the
train in Montgomery at 5:50.
Nine of the players who are slat-
*ed to start-the game tonight are Sen­iors,
while the other two are juniors.
Coach Wynne will have a large as­sortment
of veteran material to fall
back- on in the event he chooses to
change his starting eleven. Thirty-two
of the forty-nine members of the
squad have had one or more years
experience.
David "Gump" Airail, 180, All-
Southern end of last season, and
Bennie Fenton, 169 pound junior, are
slated to get the opening call on the
flanks. Fenton received much ex­perience
last year after Porter Grant
was injured, and should make a good
running mate for brilliant Airail.
Buddy McCollum, 184 pound power­house,
and Mark "Tiny" Holmes, 235,
Will be stationed at the tackle posts
when the whistle blows. These men
were two of the outstanding tackles
in the South last year, and much is
expected from them this season by
Tiger supporters.
Alternate Captain Boots Chambless,
a Montgomery boy, will start at his
usual position, right guard, while the
other guard assignment is expected
to be filled by a junior who has
shown much promise, Mike Welch.
Chambless tips the scales at 178,
while Welch weighs 188.
Will Chrietzberg, 189, will be lo­cated
in the center of the line. Will
is a veteran of two year's varsity ex­perience,
and his presence will
strengthen Auburn's forward wall.
Captain Ripper Williams, who
weighs 150, will handle the quarter­back
^department, as well as lead his
Plainsmen into action for the first
time.
The hard hitting little dynamo from
Greenville, Allen Rogers, is slated for
opening duty at right halfback.
Rogers weighs 155 pounds. His run-

POLO
Numerous inquiries have been made re­garding
the plans for polo during the com­ing
season. It is quite obvious that there
is some misunderstanding as to the con­tinuance
of polo at Auburn and we feel
that any sport -which has aroused as much
interest as has this one among the members
of the student body in the two years since
Its inauguration here should certainly be
continued.
Polo was introduced here two years ago
by the Military Department and practically
the entire first year was spent in the train­ing
of men and horses. A few contests
were engaged in but they were along the
experimental line. Last season the squad
played fifteen matches, eleven of which
were on the home field. Only five matches
were lost by the locals against ten wins,
a truly remarkable record for any team;
and this in the second season. Eight of
the matches were against other colleges
and six of these were victories.
Throughout all of last year, admission
was charged at only one contest, so that
the students might become familiar with
the sport and thereby voice their approval
or disapproval of it. So far, comments
have been but of a decidedly approving
type. Even though no admission was charg­ed
for nearly the entire season, polo was
practically self-supporting. The great
drawback was in the fact that the members
of the squad were required to defray their
own expenses on the trips which were made.
When we take into consideration the fact
that the University of Florida appropriates
one thousand dollars per year to this sport,
it seems only fair that at least half that
sum might be given for the continuance of
such a sport here.
Auburn has every advantage for the
building up an excellent team. The Mil­itary
Department has been kind enough
to furnish the mounts at no cost, and al-through
several horses have suffered mis­haps
in practice and matches, not one word
has been said concerning the matter. One
of the best possible coaches is available in
the presence of Lieutenant Tom Giinby, who
has worked untiringly for seven days each
week to train the horses and to coach the
players in the correct procedure. If one
department is willing to work as this one
has in the furtherance of a sport which is
fast gaining popularity throughout the
country, why could not the school cooperate
in some way to aid in this matter? We
all realize that a great financial burden
is placed upon all college athletics, .but it
appears that if the problem were gone
over carefully, some solution might be
found.
Polo is no longer looked upon as a game
for the more effeminate type of man. Ten­nis,
if we remember, was once shunned by
the more brawny members of our sex, but
the idea that it was a "sissy" game has
long since been dissipated. Even so, are
people beginning to realize that a polo
match is as thrill packed and hazardous as
any other major athletic encounter. Only
last year several near casualties were barely
averted on our field. In reality, polo is a
major sport, although it may never be
recognized as such.
We do not feel that this sport should be
recognized as a major one on the campus
quite yet, but we do feel that it is one
which is enjoyed by both players and spec­tators
and that it should by no means be
allowed to drop^by the wayside along with
intermediate sports.
FLORIDA'S ATTITUDE
* At a time when student government on
this campus should be a topic of wide dis­cussion,
we find that it also concerns stu­dents
at the University of Florida. The
following editorial, showing the attitude
toward self-government on that campus,
may be of material aid in helping to solve
our own problem. It is for this purpose
that it is being run.
Student government is one of the great­est
heritages of any university. As the
name implies, it is government by the stu­dents
and for" the students in practically
all phases of college life and regulation.
While it confers considerable authority on
the officers of the student body it neces­sarily
imposes a great many responsibilities
on the student body as a whole. No man
can be successful in college unless he is pre­pared
to assume these responsibilities, and
to exercise this authority.
In the early history of the University the
faculty offered to grant the student body
self government, but after due deliberation^
the members of the student body rejected"
the offer because they did not feel they
were yet qualified to govern themselves.
Because student government was not per­manently
established on this campus until
the students were fully qualified to govern
themselves largely accounts for the great
progress in our student government. The
future of our student government depends
largely on the type of leaders that are
developed; and no one can become a lead­er
unless during his first years on the cam-put
he has become experienced in the vari­ous
phases of college government.
One of" the purposes of college training
is to develop a man out of the high school
graduate. Academic work alone will not
accomplish this. - Undoubtedly the best way
of obtaining* this practical experience is
through active participation in student gov­ernment.
It ..develops character; prepares
one to assume the responsibilities of life;
and as no other form Of college activity
does, it develops leadership.
The training one might thus obtain' in
college has many direct benefits when one
has entered the business world. Many of
Florida's alumni have achieved notable suc­cess,
which often can be traced back to their
participation in student government. One
of the student body presidents of a few
years ago subsequently became Speaker of
the House of Representatives. A number
of recent graduates who were once promi­nent
campus leaders, were successful in the
1932" general election, and became impor­tant
state office holders.
While one may realize the advantages
of becoming active in student government,
he may not know just how to approach the
matter. There is no set' method; but one
should start at the bottom, and learn be­fore
trying to lead. Every student should
become familiar with the Constitution and
By-Laws. Personal friendship with many
of the officers of the student body would

OMICRON DELTA KAPPA
Omicron Delta Kappa is a national hon­orary
fraternity established in 1914 to rec­ognize
men on all college campuses where
chapters are located for certain qualifica­tions
of which leadership is the uppermost.
The purpose bf Omicron Delta Kappa is
threefold: First, to recognize men who have
attained a high standard of efficiency in
collegiate activities, and to inspire others
to strive for conspicuous attainments along
similar lines. Second: to bring together the
most representative men in all phases of
collegiate life and thus to create an organ­ization
which shall help to mold the senti­ment
of the institution on questions of
local and intercollegiate interest. Third:
v
to bring together members of the faculty
and student body of the institution on a
basis of mutual interest and understanding.
Each year, three separate elections are
held in the organization. Four men are
picked in February from the Junior class
and six more Juniors are selected in April.
These men comprise the active chapter for
the following year and they in turn elect
from three to five classmates each fall to
complete the membership of the chapter.
The local organization sponsors an an­nual
freshman cake race in which all new
students are compelled to run. Cakes are
awarded the first twenty-five to finish the
event and the winner is awarded a class
numeral. In addition the fraternity having
the first five pledges to finish is awarded
a silver loving sup. 0. D. K. also sponsors
other campus events during the year and
takes part in the Honor Societies' Ball in
the winter.
Officers and members for the comnig
year are Fred Chapman, president; Clar­ence
Killebrew, vice-president; Joe Ledbet-ter,
secretary and treasurer; Justin Mirroll,
Horace Shepard, Lloyd Richey, William
Beck, Herbert Harris, Dozier Howard. Sev­eral
seniors will be elected to membership in
the near future.

was sort of a rare occasion. You felt sort

Birmingham-Southern
And Auburn Teams To
Meet For 10th Time
Friday night, under the flood­lights
of Cramton Bowl in Montgom­ery,
Auburn and Birmingham-South­ern
continue their athletic relations
which have been going oh for the
past thirteen years. During this pe­riod
the football teams of these
schools have met nine times with Au­burn
winning seven of these engage­ments
and Southern two. Auburn
has amassed 193 points to Southern's
25, in these games.
Back in 1920 Auburn met Birming­ham-
Southern for the first time and
came out on the long end of a 49-0
score. This team was coached by
Mike Donahue, the great Auburn
coach, and rated- as one of the best
in the south. These teams did not
meet in 1920 or '21, but continued
their relations in 1923 with Auburn
winning, 20-0. In 1924 Auburn won
a hard fought game, 7-0, following
this year later with a sweeping 25-6
victory under the tutelage of '"King
David" Morey.
Then came a lapse of two years
during which these' teams did not
meet. In 1928 Coach Jenks Gillem's
Panthers handed the .Tigers their
i i r s t defeat, winning a hard fought
battle, 7-0.' The next year Auburn,
burning from the previous year's de­feat,
got revenge by winning, 7-0..
This was only momentarily though as
the Hill-toppers came back next year
to win by the same score. However
in 1931 Coach Wynne had his system
better established and gave Southern
a severe beating, 24-6.
Last year Auburn surprised . the
South when its speedy team scored at
will and ran up a 61-0 score. Coach

TIGER GROWLS
===== By B. C. POPE ========
Coach Chet Wynne will trot out his fourth Auburn grid machine
before the public for the first time tonight onjhe turf of Cramton Bowl.
Much speculation has been made by sports writers, students, alumni, and
followers of the Orange and Blue over Auburn's prospects for the season.
After the opening contest, a more concrete idea may be had.
It is generally conceded by those who are supposed to know, that the
Plainsmen will have a good football team. Just how good is the question
that should be partly answered tonight.
' Several things will be interesting to watch tonight. Just how well
Coach Wynne has been able to plug the hole at left guard made by the
departure of Donald Jones should be indicated tonight. And hdw well
Kimbrell and Rogers perform in the punting department is another item
that will bear watching. Firpo Phipps, the Tigers' star passer and pow­erful
runner, will be under fire for the first time since an automobile
accident this summer. On his showing in the Southern game will de­pend,
in a large measure, the success of the Auburn eleven the rest of the
season.
Jimmie Hitchcock, Auburn's great two sport All-American athlete
of last year, has arirved at the Plains,- and has begun his duties as a
member of the Tiger Coaching Staff. Tonight he will be watching the
game from the sidelines instead of leading his mates into battle. What
would Auburn supporters give to have him in that game for just a little
while, or sending long spirals down the field, or returning punts, or
• passing, or blocking, or tackling. Just to be able to watch the galloping
ghost perform once more in an Auburn uniform would be worth several
times the price of admission.
* * * * * * _•
The Tigers' second and last night game of the season is scheduled
for next Friday night with Howard College in Birmingham. Inasmuch
as there is always great rivalry between the two Birmingham institutions
as to the relative strength of the Bulldogs and Panthers, the showing
of each one against Auburn should form an interesting comparison if
you are prone to go in for rating teams on comparative scores. It is
safe to bet that the team that makes the worst showing against the
Tigers will more than likely win in Birmingham's great Battle of the
Marne in November.
* * * * * *
Auburn'sf Tigers will take up where-they left off last December and
will be seeking 4;o add further laurels to their undefeated record of last
year tonight. Auburn's last defeat was by Georgia on November 20,
1931.
* * * * * *
Donald Jones, regular guard of last season, has resigned his posi­tion
as Coach at Lineville Secondary Agricultural School, and has ac­cepted
the post of assistant line coach here at Auburn. Jones will
coach both the varsity and freshman guards.
* * * * * *
Reports from Montgomery indicate that Haygood Paterson, 191
pound junior tackle, who was injured in an automobile wreck out of
Auburn last week, will be able to-see the game tonight. Still suffering
from painful injuries to his hip.Haygood plans to borrow a pair of
crutches long enough to permit him to watch his mates in their opening
battle.
Paterson aside from being one of the most valuable athletes of the
team is'one of the most popular members of the student body here. All
of Auburn hopes that Pat will soon be back well enough to join his
buddies back at the Plains.
* * * * * * * *
Coach Ralph Jordan, head freshman mentor, has a promising squad
out every afternoon, one of the largest ever to report here at the Plains.
Assisted by Lee Johnson, Coach Jordan is rapidly whipping his boys into
condition. It will require several days for these coaches to be able to
determine the most worthy candidates.

at left guard; Gilbert, at center;
Gilam, right guard; McGehee, right

The other team is composed of

A call for all students, freshmen
and upperclassmen, who are interest­ed
in trying out for the swimming
team, has been issued by Coach How­ard
Morris. Open tryouts will be
held Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock
in the gymnasium pool, and all can­didates
are asked to report at that
time, Those who are not able to
meet this first practice for any rea­son,
are asked to get in touch with
Marcus McGriff, manager, at the K.

Prospects for another successful
season are bright, as the entire var­sity
of last year has returned intact.
This array will be augmented by val­uable
additions from the freshman
team of last year.
The lettermen of last season, Capt.
Howard Morris, Miner Peagler, How­ard
Wheeler, Lynwood Poole, and
Duke LeBaron, have already, begun
active training. Many of them have
been working throughout the .summer
months and are in good condition.

Coach Jenks Gillem and his Birm­ingham-
Southern Panthers, primed
for tonight's contest with Auburn's
Plainsmen, will embark this afternoon
for Montgomery, the scene of the
struggle. The entire Hilltop squad is
pronounced in good physical condition.
Coach Gillem has been putting his
charges through sessions of blocking,
tackling, and signal practice the past
week. Most of the time has been
spent, however, in the perfection of
a passing attack, and this is expected
to be the Partther's chief weapon
against the heavier Plainsmen to­night.
The Southern mentor will have a
veteran backfield to start the game.

Beaird, halfbacks, and Ike Young,
diminutive quarterback, are expected
to face the Plainsmen when the whis­tle
blows. Bryce McKay is another
ball carrier who might get the call
to start at one of the halfback posi­tions.
At the terminal posts, Ed Owens,
veteran senior, and Lewis Haygood
are expected to open the game.
Dewey Mitchell, and Theron Fisher,
both seasoned players, will be located
at the tackles unless some last minute
change occurs.
The guards will be selected from
Louie Townsend, Floyd Clark, and
Falton LeCroy, the first two named
probably receiving the call.
Laurie Battle, star performer in the
game against Auburn last year is
slated for opening duty in the center
of the line. •
The Plainman Tigers will outweigh
