'I'he outcome of the game is uncer tain. but the way the local team will line up it will make them a very strong aggergation, and if it would have been possible for them to have played this season as they will have to night. in all probability every game that has been played would have been victories. In most of the games this season, the team has played in a very weakened condition, but this will not be the cast tonight, as the strongest team will be played. The game will be starred with the following line-up: (’rowell and Averett forwards, Allison center, SteAvart and Alexander gtiards. Wilmington has no weak team by any means, and they will give the Ip- cai boys all they are looking for. Their line-up will be: Stevens and E. Hines ft vwards.

According to the gossip following the meeting, it seemed the determined attack made by President Baugh, of the Birmingham clul), on the clause affecting the jilayer-manager's salary being excluded from the salary limit, was simply a scheme originated by Mr. Heisman, of Atlanta. The real motive for changing this particular clause, so the story goes, was to provide a ways and means to rid the Southern League of Billy Smith, former Atlanta manager, but now with Chattanooga. There was no way to get back at Smith open to Mr. Mels- man, except by revising this section, and finding Mr. B^ugh had a i)laying manager—Moles worth—Heisman also found a leader to carry on his fight. Ill succeeding with his battle, Heis- inan is now in a position to force the Chattanooga club to appoint a jdaying manager or else run the Lookout team at $200 |)er month less than any club in the league. The Nashville Banner has this inter esting l)it of news aueut scorers being acquainted with sip;nals': "1 believe that every official scorer should knov. the signals of his team, at least,” said Manager Shwartz yes terday in President Hirsig’s office. ‘‘A lot of mistakes iu scoring would be avoided if this were so. The way the scoring is done now by a man who trusts bis eyes without knowing the real reason for things, bad breaks are made nearly every day.
