And such being the case, others. with

BRUNER IS BEATEN
 AGAIN BY MORGAN

A defeat worse than that administered Tuesday night was met by Bruner, the challenger, in his second match with "Bill'' Morgan. state champion, played last night at the Monarch poolroom at 200S Third avenue. While Morgan was running 200 Bruner could garner but 4s billiards.
 This makes the total score for the two nights Morgan. 400; Bruner. 159
 With the balk lines at 14.2 last night Morgan seemed at the top of his game. He never shot a better cue, being strong at masses and superb at round table shots for position. Time after time he elicited the applause of the large crowd of fans who packed all available space by his position plays and his masterly handling of the cue ball.
 Morgan got away to good start with the high run of the evening, making 32 before missing. From then on the game was entirely in his hands. Bruner's nigh run was 22, and his next highest 5. Nor gan made the remarkable average of 91s Bruners average was 6-21.
 The score by innings was as follows: Morgan

RALLY IN SEVENTH SPELLS DOWNFALL
 OF THE ATHLETICS
Barons Victorious by Score of ) to 4 in a Thrill ling Game-Read Is
 Knocked Out
py RICHARD F. LUssIER

Orlando. Fla, March 17,-fSpecia1 St. PatriclS's day was fittingly observed by Rick woodward's Barons in trounc- ing Connie Mack's Athletics at Expo sition park in a thrilling seventh h. ming batting rally. The score was to 4.
 For six innings Read. a graduate oi the sand lots of Philadelphia, held the Barons to two safe knocks, but ia the fateful seventh two hits and several passes spelled his downfall He was relieved by Harper another recruit, on whom the winning runs were made. All the scoring of the Athletics was made with Hardgrove pitching.
 Edson Hemingway started and fin ished the seventh inning. He faced Read and waited until Scott Chesnntt sent him to first. There were cheers from the half-frozen crowd. After get ting three and two on Sloan, the re- cruit Read "grooved" one and the Bar onial right fielder singled sharply over the third base line. Hemingway was held to second. Mcbride, amid the en : treaties of the crowd, sent up a high

George Hale advanced to the plate. everyone on their toes Hale hit fluky little groundes along the third base line and Kopf, coming in fast. scooped it up and shot the ball to Wally Schang, forcing Tod Sloan at the plate on a very close de- cision.
 The bases were still drunk and Ar thur Johnson was walked, forcing in a run. A consultation between "Stuf- "" McInnis and Captain Harry Eavis followed and Read was relieved by Harper after two balls had been called on Charlie Carroll. On the second ball pitched by Harper the Baron first sacker singled to right, scoring Ellam and Hale. This tied the score and the crowd of enthusiastic Orlandians be- gan calling for the Barons to win the game.
 Harper was wild and Hartle walked, again filling the bases. Hemingway came to bat for the second time in the inning and hit slow grounder to- ward first which Harper juggled. Ar thur Johnson scored on the play and on Harper's throw to McInnis, Carroll sped for home. He was nipped by a quick return, McInnis to Schang. That ended the scoring for the day.
 In the eighth the Athletics were cas- fly retired and in the ninth, although they got two men on bases with none out, 'airtight" pitching by Johnson saved the day. The last out was mad 0 ty brilliant catch by Hartle in deep center off Schang. The feature of the game was the catching of Schang of the Athletics and Hale of the Barons
 There was little to choose between either of these two receivers and the base runners had a very difficult time stealing Hale nipped two in one in- ming.

rooms when Fundamental educational efficiency demands smaller groups in- stead of larger groups. l submit that it is not an economy to be conducting a two-year law school when the na- tional standard demands a three-ye course.
 1t is true that we have reduced the per capita cost of instruction to q start ling minimum. It Is true that there is no parallel to this record in university administration, so far as I have been able to ascertain. Yet there is a limit to all things, and l am here to say that we have reached that limit. Four years ago, when the student body was only one-half It's present size. the legisla- ture deliberately decided that the so- called conditional appropriations should be voted. The preamble to that act is a ringing declaration. By what rule of reason should these essential ap- propriations be denied the institution at this time when 1t is serving two students for every one that was being served at the time tho appropriation was made? This is no longer war ridden commonwealth. helpless and prostrate. It is young giant that has the will to use It's strength aright.
 History of Releases
 'l desire to add a personal word in con clusion. Someone said to me recently that there had been some criticism in view of the release by the governor of the conditional appropriations to which I have already referred. The simple history Of the release of the university appropria- tions is as follows: Prior to my accept ing the call to Alabama I stated plainly to the late pr. ]. H. Johnson, through whom the call was presented to me, that l should greatly hesitate to undertake this work if the conditional appropria- ticns of 1911 were not to be available with ins reasonable time. It was as plain to me then as it is now that the Univer- sity of Alabama could not do it's work without these appropriations. Dr. John son made 8 trip to Montgomery for the sole purpose of discussing this matter with the governor Then and there it was understood that at sometime within the auadrennial period these appropriations were to be released. That conference was held in the summer of 1911. I had not then accepted the presidency of your state university. I was trying to decide of any intraparty divisions existing in people who cherIshed high ideals and who would appreciate the sacredness of an ob- ligation. Accepting in good faith the rep resentations made to mo at the time when I was asked to give up the associations of lifetime to come to Alabama, and un- moved by any conscious desire save to render service, I made the great decision. Having made it, I DOW refuse to believe that high minded men who. know the facts will fail to give hearty sanction to the
