A CONFERENCE
OF EDUCATORS
Much Interest is Being Shown In
Meeting To Be Held in oxford
On June 6.
Special to The Neos.

Special to The Neios.
Jackson, Miss, May 2S-Much in
terest is shown in the coming confer
ence of the Mississippi educators
which will meet at the Mississippi
University June 6. Those who will
attend this conference are the instruc-
tors for the four State summer nor
NAL schools, and the conference will
last one week.
The following Monday, June 13, the
Brookhaven normal opens and will
continue to July g. This will be the
first of the summer normals to open
its session, and the others will follow
In few days. There will be nor
NAL at Clinton, one at the University
and the other at the A. & M. College.
The conference at the University
preceding the normals will discuss
methods of securing better results at
these teachers training schools. A
feature of the conference will be the
round-table talks, in which the in
structors will give their views and
discuss their plans for directing their
special work.
State Superintendent of Education
J. N. Powers regards this conference
as probably the most important meet
ing of educators in the state in sew
eral years. New ideas will be brought
out, he says, as all instructors will be
requested to express their views on
all questions under discussion. The
work of the normals will be gone over
in detail and the teachers of the state
will be given the advantage of all
matters discussed. The instructors
are all trained in their work and are
among the most successful educators
in the South, who have devoted their
life to the work, and Mr.. Powers
thinks the grade of instructors this
year is higher than any previous
year since the state normals have
been conducted in this state.

LOST THE
SECOND TO LAWMAKERS

The ability Of Jackson's big league
leading Lawmakers to fight to the last
and show the never say die spirit
accounts for the ga score by which
our Yellow Piners were defeated in
saturdays ARRAY. 1t was a good game
Of baseball. brim-full Of interest, good
plays. action and agony. One thing is
certain, the much heralded Mr.. Sor-
rells, the star performer Of Jackson's
pitching corps. can claim little credit
for the win, for he handed us the
game on waiter, and only took it
back, Alphonse Hike, when we wouldn't
have it. Another thing is equally GER
tain Curnane doesn't get all the
credit for losing for that hard luck
worthy bawled creditable game. and
would have won had the men behind
him and the catcher in front of him
had less sins of omission and commits
sion registered against them. We
would say to Mr.. Happy Hooligan
Curnane. however, that the use of the
noodle is necessary to the success of
even good left arm like yours, and
a present Of four wide ones occasion
ally to some husky Individual who has
taken your measure, Mr.. Graham, for
example. is often indicative of cool
brain even in red hot game And
to Mr.. Boyd, our clever and classy
center-fielder, that the school boy cry
of home hit," doesn't always indi-
cate that there are not better places
to peg to. A swift peg to second in
stead of long throw home would
have put a different ending to the un-
fortunate eighth. And to Mr.. Swami
but Swann's fingers stuck to the ball
and he just couldn't throw. Try
little rosin, Swanny and look in the
direction you want the ball to go.
Jackson led off in the first with two
runs. when Graham clanted for four
bags, bringing Poehler in ahead of
him.
Hattiesburg promptly tied it up
when, after Boyd and Ash were pass
ed, Jones advanced the pair to third
and second on sacrifice and Stick
ney scored both on stinging single
after Tut was easy out to third East
man ended it by striking out
Hattiesburg pushed another run over
in the fourth, when, after Tutwiler
was out Stickney hit safe, and was
pushed over by Eastman, Sutton and
Swami, aided by Jackson's errors.
Then with three on base Curnane and
BOYD were easy outs. Even passable
base running would have added an
other in this round, but Eastman can't
run bases any better than he could
play any other part of the game.
We scored again in the sixth, when
Stickney, first up, landed hard for two
bags. Eastman took first on scratch
hit, advancing Stickney, and Sutton
scored him on pretty sacrifice, going
out catcher to first. Swami and Cur
name struck out.
This ended the scoring for Hatties-
burg, although, in the seventh the
bases were drunk twice and Jackson's s
infield added two errors to our two
