SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 23 Hi School Grid Classic Here Dec. 13 A. R. C. to Battle Riverside Here Turkey Day Musketeers Expect to Wind Up Season in Victorious Style Thanksgiving Day the Richmond Musketeers will end their football season for this year when they meet Riverside. Their record this year has not been so good as in the past two years. The team has faced much harder opposition with a dearth of experienced players. At the opening of season Coach Car son had six letter men to report. Missing were Fair and Ferguson, tuckles; Scott and Cook, guards; Miller and Samuel, ends; O’Con nor. Brinson, Sack, and Williams, backs. One might say that a whole team was gone with the exception of center and Capt. Pund has been out most of the season with illness or injuries. The team had to be built around Capt. Pund, center; Thomas, tackle; Wall, guard; Hudson, end; and Powell, and Gillman, halfbacks. The Richmond team won its first games but struck a snag in Colum bia. Columbia has the best team in its history—a team of veterans who had played together two or three years, and who seem headed for the championship of South Carolina. Richmond put up a game fight but was defeated. Tech High with a powerful and ex perienced team also beat the locals by a. decisive score in their first half; but the locals, playing against heavy odds outplayed their heavier opponents in the third Quarter and held them to one touchdown in the last quarter. Against teams far above them in class they have put up a game though losing, fight. EXPECT TO WIND-UP SEASON WITH VICTORY 9 In spite of defeats, if the locals win over Riverside, they can con sider the season not, altogether a failure. They can bo depended on to do their utmost to erase the stig ma of defeat and to wind up the season with a victory. And they have a 50-50 chance of so doing. Just now they are at their best. At last they seem to have learned to tackle and to dump. No lon ger do they reach out with one hand to catch a man passing by: they hit him hard .and solid and knock, him back. On end runs the interference is really an interfer ence; they leave their feet and cut their opponents down. The mem bers of tlie team are working har der than ever before. Whenever they tackle an opponent, he knows that he has been hit —when he comes to. If Richmond improves as much in the next four days ds in the last four, the game can be put down as a win for Richmond. On paper the two’ teams well matched. Both teams appear weaker than last year. Both have played Tech High and both have lost by practically identical scores. Thursday Richmond will have the advantage of playing before the homefolk —which makes a big dif ference too. If Richmond plays as fiercely Thursday as in the scrim mages this week, it should win without doubt. NOTRE DAME WINS Over Northwestern College by 13 -‘6 Score CHICAGO. —Entring the game an overwhelming favorite Notre Dame University team met a worthy foe in Northeastern University’s eleven and after using their full strength and pounding Northwestern Uni versity’s line they won their game, 13 to 4. Coach Rockne’s famous backfield did not have things their own way and were stopped or held to small gains by a line thaht fought with dogged determination. Ralph Baker stopped the visit ers' attack almost single-handed. His punts outdistanced the kicks by Laden, of Notre Dame, by fully 20 yards and he threaded his , way through the opposing line for sub stantial gains that averaged 15 to 20 yards. Stuhldrehr and Layden scored Notre Dame’s two touch downs, both of which resulted from forward pass plays. It was Baker who scored all of Northwestern’s tallies. ffTTh AMAZINGLY LOW H WEgfL PRICED 1924 MODEL COVERNMENT Tt,n D ..01 TUST received.^^-CRK^JSy, J Limited quantity of HWft. brand new 1924 famous “TROOPER" Side Swing bkT'^SßmlW^K revolver*.

LOWER—EDWARD BEST. NOTE: (MAYBE IT’S JUST THE OPPOSITE). When the Sanat Ana (Cal.) high school eleven plays there is one player always In white sweater. That one is Elliott Best and he wears the white sweater so that tho coach knows him from his brother, Edward Best. How else could he tell? Yes, the Best boys are twins. BILLY EVANS SAYS-- It is beginning to look as if the 2oast made a very wise selection in booking Syracuse and the Uni versity of Pennsylvania for post season games this year. Syracuse, one of the' strongest teams in the east, is to meet the University of Southern California at Los Angeles Dec. 6. University of Pennsylvania, hav ing its best season in years, is to clash with Andy Smith’s great Cali, fornia eleven. The California eoach first won football game at University of Pennseylvania. It was a great break for him to schedule Perm in a big year. At present there is considerable turmpil in Pacific coast football. As usual the trouble was created overt the oft-discussed, question as to what makes an amateur a pro fessional. Many of course, but it makes a difference how the athlete earns the money. If he does it through his athletic ability he is a profes sional, otherwise not. Last summer “Red” Grange, star of the University of Illinois, earned money and kept in condition by peddling ice. That was a perfectly proper way for an intelligent ath lete to retain his amateur standing. On the University of Southern Cali fornia it seems there was a player who once earned some money by putting to use his athletic ability, his knowledge of football as a pre paratory school coach. That, according to college ethics governing an athlete, made him a professional. California protested and he was ruled out. Immediately Southern California, in retaliation, made charges against several athletes on California and Stanford. Keeping one’s goal line clean Is more or less a myth In these days of open football. Take Illinois for Instance, one of of the strongest teams in the coun try. Three teams, Nebraska, Butler, and Michigan, all scored one or more times In their games with Zuppke’s team. Then there Is Tale, Georgia, Dart mouth, Brown and the Army all made three or more points against the Blue. Five of the opponents of Andy- Bmith’s mighty California eleven have succeeded in scoring. Three teams have scored touchdowns oh Harvard, four on Princeton. There no longer exists a defense that Is proof against the forward pass. Regardless of the inequality of two teams, there Is always a chance that the under-dog will get away with a long pass and a score. Indians Shoot Golf Over Plains Chiefs Hunted on TULSA, Okla.—Big chiefs and Indian princesses of the Osage tribe —wealthiest of all tho Ameri can Indian clans —are as fond of golf as people of any other race and a number of these leaders of tho Osages are members of the Tulsa Country Club of this city. Over plains which their ancestors hunted, many Osago Indians of tho present generation are chasing golf balls. Tho Tulsa course, IS holes with large, beautiful grass greens, was constructed at an expense of $200,000 and is ensily the finest course in that section of the south west and compares favorably with any championship test of golf. Jim Kennedy, Tulsa’s foremost amateur golfer, is one-half Osage Indian. His father. IJr. James Ken nedy, arrived in Tulsa 33 years ago All-Southern Pick By Gordon W. Chambers BULB PLUGS INTO HOUSE ELECTRICITY NEWARK. N. J.—A young, bob bed-liaired modern flapper is co inventor of one of the most revolu tionary vacuum tube products in the history of radio. Hortense Schickerling is the girl. Her father, Conrad Schickerling, is known through the radio and elec trical word as a leading vacuum tube inventor and producer. But Schickerling doesn’t agree, entirely. For he attributes his fame, in part at least, to the ideas and co-operation Hortense has given him. In their factory here the Schick erlings, father and daughter, are working on the production of a tube that will do awajr entirely with A and B batteries. It will get its plato and filament current direct from the house electric lighting plug and, Schickerling adds, will be free of any alternating current hum or even of static. GOOD MECHANIC The new tube can bo plugged In to a direct current socket as well, and get just as good results. Yet it is said to use up less current than any other vacuum tube now in use. For the last two years Hortense Sichickerling has been working with her father in their laboratory, producing test after test to find this ideal tube. Hortense, says Schickerling, is one of the best tube makers in the country. She can make the entire tube from be ginning to end, and she does it swiftly and efficiently. Outside of this she can speak four languages —English, German, French and Spanish. “Before I stumbled on this new tube,” explains Schiekerling, " I had tested 1,500 different types. The se cret of the final product lies in the fourth element—a tiny vacuum tube within the actual vacuum tube itr/lf. NO EXTRA PART “This small tube acts as a muffler against the A. C. hum of tjio house current. It is actually a spark gap in a complete vacuum.” The entire operation of rectifica tion, filtering and elimins tionof hum takes places inside thctqjie, so that it can be set into a regular soc ket and -the bouse current wires run direct to the filament terminals. The plate terminal runs Into the positive filament terminal, so that both plate and filament use the “S sd.lck.rHns has produced several other kinds of radio tubes, among them a new type designed to create power.

STRANGE THINGS ARE LIABLE TO HAPPEN AT ANY OLD TIME While the people were preparing for a shivering night, the wind whistling around the corners, the coal man getting a big boost for his business, the Ice man taking note of an astonishing decrease in sales and the mercury at the weather bureau tumbling to the bottom of the tube, Old Sol was getting In some dirty work In the front window of the N. I* Willet Seed Company Saturday after noon. Chdrles Blgnon* employed at the Willet store, noticed smoke In the show-window, where there was a big two-gallon gold-fish globe, filled with water and with several gold-fish in It. Investigation by Mr. Blgnon, according to C. H. Brush, another employee of the store revealed the paper, with which the window was trimmed, burning. When discovered by Mr. Blgnon, a hole shout the size of a half dollar had been burned in tho paper. For a moment, the strange thing was a mystery, hut someone hap pened to catch sight of a brilliant ly lighted gpot, In which appeared every color of tho spectrum, boiled down to little more than a dot, hut It was sun-,brlght. Immediately, the thought of a sun-glass came to mind, but there was no sun-glass In the window! After some few moments of confused conjecture and experimenting, it was found that the gold-fish globe was the sun-glass. Filled with water and caught by the sun at exactly the proper angle, the sun-glass effect was obtained, with the result that something must burn.* Augusta’s experience In the past thirty-six hours has been most unusual: A thunderstorm on a ceid night and a sun g fire on a cool af ternoon ! THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. when it was an Indian village of 1,000 inhabitants. Dr. Kennedy mar ried a princess of the Osage tribe and their children are all enhtusi astic golfers. The Osago Indians owned untold miles of land which for years has been pouring out oil which has made many Osage chiefs and prin cesses among the most wealthy cit izens in Oklahoma and it is from these that golf has won many a supponer. Jim Kennedy holds tho amateur record for the Tulsa course, a 69. A gallery of 500, including many with Osage blood, followed Walter Hagen and Joe Kirkwood when they played a match here recently. The driver and the iron has taken the place of tho bow and arrow In Tulsa. In selecting my All-Southern for 1924 I have had such a wealth of wonderful material that it has been indeed hard for me to fairly pick with accuracy, but I have done the best I could and as I see them lined up before me, I am very proud of them and I present them to tho public as a team that can lick the stuffing out of any team now or ganized in tho United States. Of course I am not referring to any All-American gathering. Last year all the sport writers in this section of the country con fined themselves to picking All-S. I. C., or All-S. I. A. veterans which is well enough in as far as it goes but in picking my team geo graphy is my only limitation and with out regard to collegjate ■ as sociation or players school, my en deavor is to select Dixie’s best based on the players record. This year my offerings consist of three teams and permit mo to explain and perhaps brag a bit about them. While they are called first, second and third teams the distinguishing line of difference Is about as apparent as a drop of dis tilled water in a spring. In pick ing this mythical team there are always a number of candidates that just miss tire grade by a hair and we pass them by with profound regret. This year it is with a wish for two more backfield positions ♦that I pass the great' records of White of V. M. I. and Sherlock of Georgia by. However the team this year will surpass any of pre vious years and a number of the Ail-Southern will be All-American which is an indication of the pro gress of football in tho South.

NEW YORK.—Ebony blacks, light browns and fashionable tans arc returning to popularity as sar torial effects in our leading flstl cufflan circles. Which is to say the colored man Is coming back as a prize-ring fac tor. Bounce your optics over tills list: Harry Wills, heavyweight. Kid Norfolk, light heavyweight. Tiger Flowers, middleweight. A 1 Brown, flyweight. Wills is no Peter Jackson, yot he is a better than average heavy weight. Ho is just as ring-smart as Dempsey is and a better defen sive fighter besides. What he lacks chiefly is aggressiveness. He hits hard enough to demand respect and ho is not slow. Dempsey would have a hard time stopping him in a short fight. Flower* Next to Greb. Norfolk is the least promising of the sooty four. Mainly because the Kid has been in tho ring for more than 10 yoars and is pretty well shopworn by now. Still, they think enough of him to match him with Tommy Gibbons In a wind-up fight In Madison Square Garden. And Norfolk may give tho Irishman a few anxious moments at that. Flowers is not exactly a begin ner, either, but lie is far from tho frazzled stage. Ho Is tho son of a Georgia parson and a souhtpaw. In action he resembles a cross between an agitated whirlwind anu an en thusiastic typhoon. Speed Is his me tier. Next is Greli, tho champion, ho is probably tho host middle weight in the gamo today. Tho aslien-hued southerner, how over, will never be great. Ills at tack lacks power and precision, lie Is more like Dundee than Leonard us a puncher. I saw him hold Greb even somo months ago In onn of those no decision stop alongs. Greb, as usual, was in bad condition. Flowers should have won by a wldo margin, but ho was over-awed. Greb out-smarted him. Brown Coming Champ? Tho outside world hasn't heard much of A 1 Brown. In time, though. It may hear plenty. Brown is a Harlem prodhet, and shapes up like another George Dixon. Ho seems to havo everything, speed, clever ness and a punch. Recently he knocked out Frankie Ash, flyweight champion of England. Brown is the most astonishing freak boxing has ever known. Blanding five feet, ten incheH, ho weighs lint 112 pounds. Few fight ers in tho gamo, aside from tho heavyweights, outstrip him in height. His legs are pipe stems. All his weight Is In hIH shoulders and arms, where It belongs. Fitz simmons, tho immortal Bob, was thut way. Wills, Norfolk, Flowers, Brown. Not a bad list. Flowers and Brown •spclally have a chance to reach lofty summits. It 1h doubtful, however, If any of them will ever match tho Illustri ous deeds of some of their colored predecessors. Jackson, for Instance, who was even up with Jlin Corbett after 61 rounds; Dixon, who stood too to too with tho McGoverns, Cor betss and Attells, and Langford, who dropped the Hcavywotght Johnson. WET WEATHER ALIBI MISSING IN GRID SPORT NEW YORK.—Like all other guests football has its countless alibis. In baseball an inflelder can al ways explain after making an error how the ball struck a pebble and took a bad bound. The outfielder when he misses a fly always has tho sun as one of his best excuses. Its blinding rays caused him to lose the ball at tho last moment. Costly fumbles, intercepted passes, poor punting and tho like have already been worked overtime to excuse gridiron failures of the present season. One alibi, however, thaht has been lacking has been rain with a resulting wet and heavy field. Football weather has been far too nice for tho players this fall, tho heat has been uncomfortable. As a result the "we would have beaten them on a dry flftld” alibi is still in camphor balls. BOOTLEG TUBES Defective, or bodßeg tubes, some times draw as much ns two or three times the usual voltage from the batteries. If the B-battery current is used up too fast, have the tube# checked up.

The two schools havo accepted the proposals of tha Legion, it is understood, and have agreed to play the game here on Saturday, December 13. Tho Tech Hi-Columbia game wilt unquestionably be tho biggest foot ball card of the season In Augus ta, with tho exception of the Geor gia-Furman classic of October IS. TECH LOOMS AS STATE CHAMPION. Tech High bids fair to cop th 4 stato championship of Georgia lit tho high and prep school class, while tills honor seoms apparent also for the Columbia outfit. Nei ther team, it is reported, has suf fered any serious casualitles thug far this season, and tho Augusts gamo will probably follow* a twd weeks’ rest. Both of the teamg have played in Augusta this season against the Academy Musketeers* when a great many fans witnessed their work. These two teams are heavy and well trained and play % gamo almost worthy of a good sized college, far outstanding any thing in the high school or prot» school line ever seen hero at any; time. Each of them succeeded in easily disposing of tho much light-. ■er Academy team by about thd same scores, this seemingly indicat ing a close game when they fac<4 each other at Academy field the 13tU of next month. DETAILS AGREED ON -i"- 1 SATURDAY NIGHT. Negotiations between local reps resentatives of tho Legion and thd managements of the teams bav<| been in process of consummatloit for the past week, but it was not until Saturday night that thd whole affair was definitely settled. The authorities at Columbia notin fled tho Augusta committee latd Saturday afternoon that Prof. A, C. Flora, superintendent, ajul John K.

It Is expeetd that th# Atlanta end will bo handled in about the same manner. The next three weeks, preceding tho game, will be spent in an ex haustive advertising campaign all over this part of Georgia and South Carolina, as everyone in this sec tion of both states is Interested in* the outcome of the game, in view of their widely advertised prowess. It is also being planned to Invite the mayors of Atlanta and Colum bia to accompany their respective foams to this city, as guests of the 1 Louis L. Hattey post of the Amer ican Legion.
