Lexington Looks for a Clean Sweep
With Maben-- Oxford Next.

Lexington lost the opening game OF
the Maben series by the close score OF
4 to 3 before a small but enthusiastic
crowd. Taking every thing into con
sideration this was fine showing, for
this was'the first game the boys have
been together in this year.
Taylor, former Itta Bena pitcher,
was on the mound for Lexington and
pitched an excellent article of ball,
allowing the visitors but three hits.
His wild heaves figured in the visitors
scoring.
Irving, Maben's box artist. allowed
but five hits. Three of these were
punched IN the fourth inning, which
! mixed with an error, counted Lexing'
tons three scores.
There were couple of new faces or
| the local team. Baker, University
man, caught splendid game for Lex
ington. He looks to be better re-
ceiver than Pete Shields, but not quite
as strong with the stick.
''Bobbie" Mckay, the Battle Creek
Mich, lad, was on first base and SCI
the fans wild with his work on tina
sack. He also poled out nice drive.
Hobbs played fine game at second
Phil Heinrich, the old reliable, ca
yorted around snortstop and grabbed
everything that came his way.
"Chick" McGee. last years cracl
third baseman, was back on that bal
and played his usual strong game.
Beall, Shepherd and Wilburn playe'
the gardens and all made a grea
showing.
Lexington fans are not disheartene
at the showing of Wednesday, and ar
looking for a clean sweep in the com
, ing games.
The locals walked away with tn
second game of the Maben series Whe
they trounced the visitors by the scor
of Ia to 8. Beall, Mckay and McGe
featured the game with some hard hi
ting.
Phil Heinrich pitched a magnificer
game for Lexington. He allowed bu
four hits and struck out eleven mer
Lexington had big inning in tn

which were placed around the four

Although tho kodak exhibition is not
intended as an art exhibit, II shows
more than one picture remarkable for
its beauty and subtle lines. 1t is in
tended to show what success can be
made by everyday people when they
take pictures OF things that interest
them. Without exception. the en-
largod photographs were taken and
developed by amateurs In the course
of travel. The screens, on this ac-
count. are covered with absorbingly

SONS OF ERIN TO
CELEBRATE APRIL |.
They Wore the Green for St.
Patrick Yesterday-Feasts and
Ceremonies POSTPONED.

Formal celebration of St Patrick s
Day by feasts and religious cere-
monies was yesterday postponed until
April /, because, for the first time in
many years. the day sacred to Ire
lands patron saint came during Holy
Week.
On the LIST Of April members OF the
Ancient Order OF lIibernians and other
Irish societies will attend mass at ST.
Patricks Church. on Twenty fifth
Street. near Broad, in n body. Bishop
OConncll il expected to be present,
and all of the Catholic priests in Rich
mond have been asked to attend.
On the evening Of April l, the
Ladies' Social Benevolent Society Of
St. Patriclss Parish will give a feast
in honor of the day. at which covers
will BIO laid for 600. The Ancient
order of Hibernians will also give n
banquet on that day. but the details
of the entertainment have not yet been
arranged.
Although these customary observ-
anccs of the day were postponed. the
wearing of the green, which stands
for the Emerald Isle. with all it's ira
ditions of heroism and romance, was
very much in evidence. The button
holes and neckties of patriotic Irish
men blossomcd with the vivid color
and time -honored design Of the sham
rock.
For the day was sacred to good Saint
Patrick, who, with the torch of piety
drove the serpents, symbolizing pa
ganism and darkness, out of Ireland,
and brought there the doctrines OF
Christianity. The adventurous sons or
Erin have found a home in every civ
ilized country Of the world. and they
wore the shamrock yesterday in his
honor all over the world. Indeed, the
veneration for the ancient saint seems
to have become contagious. for on the
streets of Richmond, the shamrock was
Haunted by many whose facial type
and even color excludes them definitely
from all claim to Celtic blood.
