MILES MEMORIAL
PLAYS TALLADEGA
Fast Negro Teams To Play
Friday Afternoon At
Rickwood
Miles Memorial school and Talla
dega college, fast negro elevens, will
meet Friday afternoon at 3:15 o’clock
at Rickwood field in the first big
negro football game of the year here.
The Miles Memorial team is a fast
and efficient football machine, which,
under the tutelage of Coach Morton,
former Alabama star, has been de
veloped into a strong eleven.
Talladega will again bring a strong
team to the Magic City for the game
and is expected to display some of
the best negro football playing of
the south. The Talladega team is
one of the strongest of southern ne
gro teams and they live up to their
catch line, "Fastest oil southern
soil."
However, the team from Vines
ville is out for their scalps Friday
afternoon and reports from the
school have it that they are full of
confidence on the eve of battle. The
Vinesville squad has been on the
field for the past month getting
ready for their first game and will
enter it in good shape. They have
a fast trio of backfield men in Jack
son. Clay and Captain Patton and
will depend largely on these men to
do the rushing on open play.
