Coach Graham Batchelor, was far from optimistic today over prospects for his opening tilt with the strong Brewton-Parker eleven. Bunch, regular halfback, and Col lins, guard, are laid up with sprain ed ankles. Cline another half-back and Cannon, a big tackle are suffer ing with strained ligaments. Eth ridge who had cinched an end posi tion, is on the bench with a badly bruised leg. Penn, fullback, and Finfrock, triple-threat halfback are both out with injured shoulders. Hard scrimmages featured tty- vicious tackling, account for most of the casualties. “I understand Brewton-Parker is pointing for us,” said Batchelor. “That's something to worry about, for I won’t be ready for them.
