Newellton, having won in Thursday
game, met st. Joseph Friday morning at
nine o'clock. The grand stand was hard
ly used at all. The spectators preferred
standing on the side-lines. Though much
interest was manifested, it could not be
hoped that this contest would be as close
as the one Of the-day before. The New
elton team was handicapped by having
played 30 hard the day before and did
not show up in such good form. The St.
Joseph team though fresh were too small
to hold their larger opponents to q close
score.
st. Joseph won the toss-up and chose
esouthem goal. Though playing against
the wind Newellton managed to get the
lead in the first half, ard in the second
ran up the score to safe distance.
Though playing hard St. Joseph could
not make such gain and the second hall
ended with Newellton far in the lead,
and the Glowing cup was theirs.

Waterproof having won the toss-up
chose the southern goal. This gave them
decided advantage during the first half
on account of the high wind. The game
opened with rush and at no time did it
lag. Both teams were in excellent con-
dition and their teamwork splendid.
From the outset it appeared that they
were so evenly matched that the contest
would be close and the game won by a
narrow margin. After few minutes Of
play the effect Of the wind began to tell
and Newellton, fighting stubbornly all
the while, saw their opponents draw
away and pile up a big lead. Rallying
they closed up the gap in part out at the
end of the first half the score stood: Wa
terproof IL, Newellton Z.
In the second half, Waterproof now
playing against the wind, could not hold
back their opponents and Newellton slow
ly crept up until only two points sepa-
rated them from Waterproof. But ii
seemed impossible to get these. Many
times was the ball worked to Newellton's
goal, only to be sent back without hay-
ing passed through the basket. But with
only half minute of play left, Newell
ton, by series of brilliant passes and q
long shot, tied the score. The half end.
ed: Waterproof IL, Newellton IL.
After few minutes rest the game con-
tinued according to rule without change
of goal. The excitement on the outside
lines was intense. Though lasting only
few minutes the play was fast and fu-
rious. Twice Waterproof shot for goal,
but the ball only rolled around on the
edge Of the basket and fell into the hands
of the Newellton guards. Twice Newell
ton shot, and the ball hung on the edgs
of the basket for an age, then droppet
on the outside. In the scrimmage tha'
followed Inez Gordon Of Newellton Sc
cured the ball and by long and dex'
trous throw sent hurting through tn,
basket and the game was over. No ON
knows exactly what followed. Fina

First Day.

Nine o'clock Friday, April 9th, found
the grand-stand at the st. Joseph ath-
letic field crowded to overlooking with
people from all parts of the parish, who
had assembled to witness the first contest
of the day. Fluttering streames Of black
and gold, green and gold, or blue and
red announced that the sympathies Of the
wearer had been enlisted in the cause Of
Waterproof, st. Joseph or Newellton.
The interest in athletic events seemed to
center about the basket ball games. Each
team seemed to have cast covetous eyes
upon the beautiful trophy offered by the
Parish School Board and it was evident
that the team winning this would GER
tainly not do 80 in walk. The shrill
call of Referee H6gts' whistle, which set
into motion the splendid basket ball ma
chimes Of Waterproof and Newellton, and
formally opened The Tensas Parish School
Rally, loosened the tongues of the tense
ly waiting spectators, and the supporters
Of each team rose to cheer their favorite
on to victory with calls and bowls of en-
couraoeuant

RALLY DAY IN ST. JOSEPH.
First Big Event Of It's Kind to be Held
In Tensas Parish.

The school authorities, teachers and
children are to be congratulated upon the
success of Rally Day, held in st. Joseph
April 9th and 9TH.
This is the first time that an affair of
this kind has been attempted here, and
the lasting good done to the schools
throughout the parish cannot he fully
estimated. 1t is to be hoped that the
splendid results of this year will cause
every one to place the proper value upon
interscholastic contests of this nature and
make Rally Day regular institution in
Tensas Parish, as it elsewhere. Besides
arousing school pride among pupils and
patrons alike, it has served to bring the
schools and their work into prominence;
and the people Of each section will be
lead to give their earnest support in the
future, not only at such times, but daily.
1t was pleasing to note the lack of feeling
and prejudice. While it is true there was
some little friction, it resulted more from
inexperience than anything else. How
ever, it has served the very good purpose
Of emphasizing the necessity Of concerted
action, and has shown fully that the fu-
ture success of Rally Day depends upon
the unselfsh effort OF all concerned.
The iberality of the Parish School
Board in supporting this move cannot be
too highly commended. Without their
support it would have been impossible to
carry out the proposed plans of the Su-
perintendent, as quite sum of money
was expended in meeting the necessary
expenses of transportation, equipment,
&c. Besides this number of handsome
and attractive awards were offered by the
Board.
Superintendent Wade deserves the I'M
qualified praise Of every person truly in
terested In the welfare of the Tensas
schools. Such an affair calls for no small
an amount Of work and large share Of
it fell to him. Being the originator OF
this movement, he has worked faithfully
in carrying it out. He has been actual
ed throughout by desire to make Rally
Day serve the best educational interests
of the parish as was originally intended.

THURSDAY
THE JOURNALS UNDEFEATABLEs
WILL SLAUGHTER THE FLuN-
KEYS OF BAYLEN STREET FOR
THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC.

The fiunkies of Mr.. Felkel himself
and Constantine Rachael Greenawalt
are sucking their thumbs and are
walking about with their feelings
hurt because The Journal showed them
how lacking they were in what sport
ing circles call fairness. If the shrimps
had known what was right they would
have probably challenged US and asked
what day would be convenient, but
they didn't know any better and we
had to tell them, that's all.
Next Thursday is the day when 1t
will happen. When the umpire calls
play ball our heavy hitters will be-
gin to knocking the pill to the fence.
Umpires don't make any difference
to us-we can walk all over EN- with
out any umpire at all, for the new
pitcher Of The Journal will send bend
ers around the necks Of the would-be
sluggers until they gasp for breath
and swing frantically at the ball after
it's gone by.
The Journals team will be At for
the kings when the appointed day ar
rives and when it gets through romp-
ing on the shrimps they will look like
a mud fence without the fence.
Much interest is being manifested
by the public in the second walloping,
and, as a walloping Is what the public
expects the News team to get we are
When we mention the public Old Man
Hughey and Fred Shad are not
counted.
The Journal wants to hand It to the
News shrimps that they are nervy
when they agree to tackle for the
second time our mighty ones. That Is
all except Mr.. Felkel and Sopchoppy
Sanborn-they pretended they would
get into the game but the yellow
streak reaching from the tops Of their
empty think tanks to their tar heels
made them hunt the bushes when the
time rolled around.
Until the time comes to play The
Journal boys and Jack Carson are
itching for the game. The slaughter
of the shrimps and their cries of dis
tress will only make us laugh. Jack
Carson says he don't see why some
body don't tell them pc white trash
around by Balen street they can't
play ball"

representing the L. & N. railroad, N.
]. Lillard. representing the Interstate
Fair, and G. A Waterman, represent
ing the Commercial Association, which
body is In charge of the county ex-
hibit this year, held a very satisfactory
conference yesterday morning.
It was decided that the CONNER

Fair Association will, jointly, estab-
fish at Atmore, Ala, and possibly at
other points TO be selected in this
county. agencies for the receipt Of
perishable products intended for ship
metn to the fair and special cars will
be sent over the road when the agents
report enough on hand to make a car
load.
Some Articles Received.
Secretary Waterman said yester-
day afternoon that the first stuff
actually received by him for the county
exhibit was delivered yesterday after
noon and consisted of a half dozen
very fine Keifer pears, which were
brought to him by J. r. Suggs, of Can
Torment.
He also said that a very modest
resident, who does not want his name
mentioned has two six-pound egg
plants, which were grown on black
jack land. Mr.. Waterman says that
the value of the elephants to the
county exhibit is very evident when
one considers what Prof. Rolls, super
intendent of the experiment station,
said about blackjack land: TITS good
for billy goats if you don't care what
becomes Of your goats" In other
words, blackjack land is considered by
scientific agriculturists as the poorest
land in this part of the world.
In addition to the above mentioned
articles, Miss Lille Taylor has fur
nished the county exhibit with an as
sortment of jellies of the vintage of
1911, and the assortment is an ex-
ceptionally fine one.
To Make Trip Into Country.
Mr.. Waterman said that J. w
Creary, field agent of the Commercial
Association, continues to make very
encouraging reports as to the work OF
getting the farmers interested in the
county exhibit and that within a few
days he would accompany Mr.. Creary
on trip through the country in the

Oakfields and Nonames have played

their three scheduled games. They
will be given a fourth opportunity TO
prove which is the better team this
afternoon and for the reason above
stated the game has a special interest
attached. Each time before they have
played a fast and interesting game
and there is no reason why this after

each under the circumstances is very
anxious to win.
