SPINNER WANTS ANOTHER
BOUT WITH DICK EVl

Battling Dick Evans. the local
bantamweight, and jockey Spinner are
anxious to go on in a return bout.
When the boys battled at the chamber
of commerce, though Evans was con
sidered the winner on points, Spinner
claimed that he was in poor condition.
and the question Of supremacy was left
open.
Spinner is particularly anxious to 20
on in the near future as he will leave
next week for Spokane, Wash, and is
also confident that he can reverse the
decision. Evans declares that he in

of southwest Texas, and will defend

Of mound artists represent the main

of these men have been doing some

showing his old 1910 form.
In this case he can be depended upon
to pitch his team into the first division

THE DIFFERENCE

It is the fashion of some people to
hold up to OcaIa the the example Of
Jacksonville is allowing the Atlantic
Coast Line to close certain streets in
order to build a big freight ware
house.
There is a difference. The streets
given up to the railroad in Jackson
willie were close TO the railroad yards,
and they intersected territory given
up to barrooms, redlight resorts,
shanties and vacant lots. 1t was to
the advantage of Jacksonville to give
up the streets to anything honest
railroad track. warehouse or even a
good, hot fire.
In Ocala it is different. The rail-
iroad wants to drive wedge oil
tracks right into the heart of the
residence section, and in a place
where it will be an everlasting dan
ger to the school children. There are
better places for it to locate its yard
and the council should see to it tha-
lit does so.

LIKE THE OKLAWAHA

Frank Huffaker is waging gal
liant fight in the Tampa Times
against the trust formed by the rail
roads and steamship lines of Florida
to choke all interior towns and cities
in favor of Jacksonville This dis
elimination on the part of the trans
portation companies of Florida
should be taken up by every board OF
trade in Florida Sanford, too, can
tell a tale about the way the whole
sale business has been choked off By
Jacksonville. The idea of the Clyde
Line making cheaper rates is a joke
and has been a joke so long that il
is a chestnut. An Independent line
of steamers in Florida would work
wonders in making cheaper freight
rates. Keep it up, Frank, and We
will at least find out who is fostering
the trust-Sanford Herald.

Some twenty years ago, Ocala had
a swimming pool. Mr.. Charles Camp
bell, then superintendent of the wa
ter works, later mayor, and always a
progressive citizen, opened a pool in
the water works building, and con-
Quoted it with success for awhile, but
did not receive enough patronage to
keep it open to the public. The pool
is now used for a reservoir. When
the city takes possession of the water
works, the council should take steps
TO build another swimming pool and
open it to public use. One of the
reasons why Mr. Campbell's enter
prise failed was that he could not af-
ford to put his prices down low
enough. Twenty-Five cents for a
swim was too much for a man to pay
every day, and it was clear out of a
boys reach. The city, however,
could AFFORD to keep the pool open
for everyone at five cents swim, the
swimmers providing their own bath
ing suits, of course. Swimming is a.
necessary part of every boys educa-
ton, and SO far as that is concerned,
OF girls, too. A big swimming
pool, with certain hours for females,
and all the rest of the time for the
males, would help Ocala in educa-
ton, morals and health.

OCALA NEEDS A Y. NJ. G. A.

One of Ocala's needs is a we'll
equipped Y. NJ. c. A, with a read
ing room, gymnasium and swimming
pool, and other things that will in
terest boys and young men, supply
them with healthy diversion and
help them to payy away that critical
time in boys life that comes be-
tween suppertime and bedtime.
The best place for boy in the
yening is at home, if he has a good
Ssme. But, as we all know, some
Ms have not good homes, and all
many that have don't stay at
home anyhow. There is a great dis
position in almost every boy to get
away from his well known environ
ments and seek some other place
during his leisure hours. For such
there is no healthy resort in Ocala
except the picture shows, and they
can't stay in the picture shows all
the time. There comes a time to
scores of them every evening when
they have no place to go where they
want to go, and the inevitable result
Is that many go where they should
not go. It's very true that some OF
them would go that way anyhow, but
place of quiet, healthy recreation
would hold some others, and to pro-
vide such a place would be one of the
most paying enterprises that the
public-spirited could enter upon.

THE SOUTH on WHEELS

Secretary Rooney returned Satur-
day from Gainesville, where he
boosted Ocalas fourth, and also met
and conferred with many of Alachua
county's prominent men on the work
OF the Southern Development Com
pany. This movement is one of the
greatest to bring more people and
capital to Florida that has yet been
set on foot Mr.. w. H. Manns is re-
ceiying encouragement for it from
leading business men all over the
state, and Mr.. Rooney, who was one
of the charter members of the asso-
citation, is swinging on to il for every
thing in it that he thinks will help
Marion county. One of the company s
plans to advertise the South will be
TO equip train to send thru the
northern states for exhibition at the
big autumn fairs. On this train,
each southern state that has identi-
fed itself with the movement will
have a car, and in the car each coun-
ty of that state will have a depart
ment TO display its attractions and
resources. Mr.. Rooney is figuring on
having Marion show up in the Flor
ida car like she does in the expert
ment station in Gainesville, and
when the exhibit is taken to the
northern and northwestern farmers
its going to have great effect.
One of the best advertisements
Florida ever had was Wanton S
Webb's FLORIDA on Wheels" the
we'll known car filled with Florida
exhibits, in which Mr.. Webb Travelled
thru the north a number of years
ago. 1t was not near so well equip
ped and had not anywhere near Sc
much TO show as the Florida car in
the Southern Development train viii
have, but it interested thousands o.
people and sent scores if not hun
dreds of people to Florida. We hat
not much to show then but sunshine
oranges and alligators; now we have
these and great agricultural and in
dustrial exhibits besides. THE South
on Wheels" will be a winner, ant
Florida Will have the finest car il

Some Interesting Diamond and Home
Plate squibs
OcaIa's infield has been greatly
by the reduisition OF
George Bats at third. Bats played
jam-up ball for Ocala last year at
short until he was compelled to quit
the game on account of a wrenched
knee, which he sustained at Gaines
vile.
Welsh Dewey has been switched
from third TO short and either Nor
ton Davis or Fleckenstein will hold
down second. Shorty Mcleod, the
pride of Ocala, will ably adorn the
keystone cushion.
Julius Brown will probably be seen
behind the bag for Ocala very short
" and will certainly strengthen the
team. Owing to a severe cough he
has been unable to play so far.
Ocala certainly has reason to fee
proud of the present season of base
ball. In all probability it has the
best diamond in the state outside o.
Jacksonville and there is POSSIBLE
iity of new grandstand in the neal
| future. The new uniforms were in
deed an improvement and the show
ling of the boys so far has been ex
Iceedingly good.
Don't forget the game in Palatk;
next Thursday and good crowd o
rooters is expected to accompany thu
team to the Gem City. The railroad
authorities will hold the train in Pa

time for the game to be played.

Many of the state papers are CEN
surfing the legislature for falling to
pass several good roads measures.
The members who voted against
these measures were not necessarily
voting against good roads. The
bills were not framed to suit them
and they were adverse to spending
the peoples money haphazard. Let
every section of Florida build good
roads of their own as Duval, Hills
borough, Seminole and several other
counties are contemplating doing.
State supervision of roads is all right
there is always a chance to spend
money on supervisors wages, when
the same amount would pave seve-
raj miles of road. Our own Forest
Lake voted against the bill and there
is no more progressive citizen in the
state and he comes from the greatest
good roads section in Florida. II
the people who framed the bill wish
to know why it was killed Mr.. Lake
can enlighten them upon the subject
and make his position very clear
