This means that eight of the dozen Reeves Sthools of the loop will be well fortilied for home and home agreements. Add to that advantage the fact that transportation by auto is very frugal, hence lowering guarantees, and you will be able to putf up over the outlook for the oncoming season Knoxville Good Again Knoxville has copped the cage honors twice in suecession and, 1o furning such stars as Sal Sanford, Lemb Johnpson, Bert Hubbard, and Wells to the floor, will be tavored to repcat Sal and Laino are gil soutbhoins Morris Brown will be 4s power ful as before. Murdock, former prep star at Baltimore anmd a cager aof national note. and De [oss Berry.. another Baltimerian, will more than make up for the loss of “fits” Carey, all-southern guard.

Potentially, Clark,. doubtless, has a better chance to win than either the Purples or the Kaycees. Buy From World Advertisers ! | P | i ! 2] ! j By J. D. McGIIEE 1 - ; At Hurst field, Benedict and Al {len locked horns in their annual Thanksgiving day game. Allea femvrm‘d viclorious after one of the most hectic battles witnessed in Co ;lumbi;l in vears. 'T'me final score was Allen 13, Benedict 6. Both Al len touchdowns were scored by Bur ll{('ss. in the second and third guart ers respectively. The extra point ’was added by Scott after the toach .down in the second by the field .ol fmutv. Benedict's score came in the fourth period on a 3b-yard pas: }Lipr;cumb to Diggs. l The game w:‘.s.b(:;luti(nl]y played iwith Allen displaying the greater zoffcm:ive and defensive strength ;'l‘hv kicking of Dean for Benedict, and Scott for Allen was outstanding ‘as one of the game's features. For 'Allen, Burgess was easily the out- Istanding player. playing defensive full. There were vay few Bene !di('t:; plays that got bevond the ‘ecrimmage line due to his uncanny 'diagnosing of the Benedict plays |On the offensive, he scored both |touchdowns for Allen; the first on a line buck for five yards after he ‘and “Whitehorse” Dicks had borne ‘lhu brunt of an offensive that car iried the ball to the Benedict H-yard Ilinv. The second touchdown was 'scored when this same Burgess in sl('rcnptcd a Bencdict pass and ran rnbout 40 yards after leaping over labout four Benedict players. The }'nhwkm;: of Captain Buston on this |play was important. Other Allen (players who shone brichtly were {Scolt, Dicks, Porterfield. Ransom and Hodges. The play of the entire ‘Allen line was brilliant. ' Diggs' beautiful receiving of the | pass from Lipscomb that resulted in ‘Benedict's touchdown was easily tho 'brightest Benedict performance | Thompson, Dean and Captain Lips 'comb fought valiantly for the loser-, E A crowd of approximately 2000 !wiln(essed the game.

(lLast yeur I recall the case of a man named on an all-stir pick who didnt even win his college letter and Coach Nicks can bear me out in that AND LANT, BUT NOT LEAST, the men who make the prade on my teams are compelled to have played creditably in the major portion of the games on the schedule, which must contain at least 50 per cent hard foes. It is with these skeleton fucts in mind, that the Maniac goes about the not at all easy task of staisfying public sentiments. | I BELIEVE FIRMLY that ‘a good big man is beticr than a good | kittle man.” and may evidence that belief. Yet I will not allow per- | sonal prejudices to stand in the way of superior achievement 4 THREE TEAMS AND A LIST of Honorable Mention will com- 1 plete my efforts. Lane and Miles Memorial, weak sisters of the Con ference, flashed no exceptional performers, and, much to my regret, have no men qualified for the honors. MOREHOUSE has had a lean year. but may land one or two men on the second or third eleven Had James star Maroon tullback. completed the Tiger schedule, it is likely that he would have landed a first team berth. Red Smith, in his last four games returned to form, and will get somewhere. TALLADEGA wiil afford Dizzy Pigrom, Elzy Wright., and Johnson, Pigrom has been the most versatile man on the -“quad playing at end and halfback and tossing passes, kicking, and runuing like 2 demon. Knoxville presents Bob Lassiter, who has shown 5o respect for Tuskegee, Morris Brown, Clark, or any other foe. He boasts 2 52-y¥ard run through both Clark and Morris Brown ior touch downs, and had two 30-yard jaunts against the Abbottinen. Besides, he ran amuck on virtually every other toe except Kentucky State. Coach Wallace Hawkins also has a demon flankman in Wells,, who plays an unorthodox style like Dalrymple. TUSKEGEER has a biulle ¢f quality men in the flashy Me Carthy, Silvey, and Captain Hockett, and the kicking tackle, K. Adams, who hasnt beéen out-punted by g Conference kicker all - season.. Only Terry, that hell fired leather-lasher up at Wilberforce has shown tim anything like superiority. - Beleher, somewhat backward at end, and Me Rinney, at tackle, were also good Muoberly ha: enjayved a great yvear al quurter MORRIS BROWN proffers Shag Jones, Tiny smith, Spuarvioek, Dyke Smith, Abe Waliker, Harris, and Stanfield. Only Shag Jones and Tiny Smith loom as serious threats on the first eleven. Me Le more was only a shadow this year. Credell and Rat Williams were brilliant one Saturday and unhimpressive the next. They will not threaten. EDWARD WATERS lias Armstvony, 4 capable guard ol Sooil physical powers and much experience, and Everetl and Larking, two clever hack: The former i85 a triple-threater PFloridd A & M has Crawford, a voung thriple-threated buack, and Maxey Jones, a very bully wingman. HALL AND CHRITE will be Fisk's only serious threats. Hall i an end, while Chrite performs at fullback in a biggedy way. Chrite is one of the best blockers in the section and Kkicks, passes, and rams a line with lots of vim. e is an oldster in the Conference, THE KFRAZIER BROTHERS A D Brown Lash (ogar and Branch have fhe best chance for Alabama State. Capilain Oran kraz ier has eajoyed 2 good vear at quarter. Severn Krazier never looked betier carryving the pill and did lots of damage with his loug touch down piasses.. A D. Brown mvas slightly below par. Cogar sutfered lots Of prestice by injury. Lash left taeckle, was a devil in disguise showinz merciless use of his big hands. Branch: played fathoms over Co zir at guard, I think. and his skill at opening holes deserves much menit. Drake. center, was also a bear, CLARK HAD HER SHARE of super men too. Elmer Baker stands above them all. But then there is Donild Reeves ,who, as an end, led the Clark team in scoring, and rivalled Me Carthy for Con ference scoring honors with 43 points. Hog Maw Robinson, center, obscured every pivot man he mei and was otherwise useful backing up the line, breaking up passes, then shifting to an offensive end 1o catch passes. Puckett, a young tackle who gave Battie lots of com petition for his berth last fall, raised lots of hell this year, shading the great Simon by a slight margin. Jesse Arnett had many wonder ing who could ram the line hardest, he or Spurlock, or the late Shank lin. Pinkney, All-American mention last year, was constant and pol ishcd in his play. Mc Pherson, as a quarter, probably paved the way to Clark's nlne victories with his superb head work and his running was pretty consistent, but a more versatile performance would be re quired of an All-Southern general.
