IGNORANCE CURSETO
 NEGRO, SAYS TUGGLE

Tuscaloosa May 27.-(Special.) )-"Ig norance is the curse to the negro race In this country and If we would climb we must wipe out ignorance and illit- eracy,' declared Carrie A. Tuggle of Birmingham, In calling to order the third days session of the grand lodge of Rising Sons and Daughters of Pro- tection, "and it will pay us to Join in a crusade against ignorance.
 Tt Is cheaper to build schoolhouses and employ good teachers than It Is to build jails and employ police off cers. In an ignorant, illiterate com munity life and property are unsafe and the jais are filled with young men and women. The negro boys and girls have been neglected by their par ents and the door of hope is often closed in their faces, so what are they to do? They are to he shown their re- responsibilities through the negroes who have made good in life. Those who have made life rather than mere living"

DRIVERS
 ANXIOUS FOR RACE Record Time Expected at Indianapolis Tomorrow.
 De Palma Favorite

Indianapolis, May 2S.-With five full three-car teams, manned by the worlds best drivers. lined up for the Indian . apoiis 6OO-mile race tomorrow, thnt contest promises to excel every event In the speedway's history. Five full teams have never competed in any American contest before, the nearest approach being last years Indianap- olis 5O0-miIe race, in which there were four.
 Two of the three-car aggregations are foreign, Peugot and Sunbeam. with three American, Stutz, Maxwell an,, Dusenberg. The battle between this quintet will be as pretty as anything the world has ever seen. To pick a winner is impossible. though the Stutz cutfit may be considered as having a shade by virtue of its crack work In the speedway elimination trials.
 Then there Is any number of indi- vidual entrants who will be up and battling among the rest until time is called, notably De Palma in his Mer- cedes. De Palma Is about due to win the Indianapolis race, having been cheated out of it in 1912 when victory was practically in his grasp, and must be figured among the strongest con testants.
 The chances of the various starters as far as the speedway elimination trials give any line on their ability Is as follows:

win if one pitcher is superior to the other. Is baseball benefited by this excellency in pitching?
 Whenever you see good pitching it follows that there is excellent fielding. Most pitchers battles develop from sensational fielding in back of the pitchers, and the fans are kept In a continuous uproar. applauding the fast and scintillating plays. pitcher s battle in reality means that instead of the ball being hit in safe terri tory that it is walloped directly or near the fielders, and faster playing results. In free hitting affair about tho only features is the electrify- ing sound of the crack of the bat, and the fast relay of the ball to head off the fleet base runners. Of course, batting rally always meets with popular approval unless it Is on the part of the opposing team, but on the whole it seems that the fans of the modern day are so educated to the niceties of the scientific baseball game that to ease up on the pitching in order that harder hitting and more runs would accrue would hardly meet with approval. There is really quite enough of mediocre pitching in base ball at the present time without fur ther difficulties being placed in the way of the hurlers. We are of the opinion that the batters are still far from being completely at the mercy of the pitchers, as the official bat ting averages clearly goes to prove. Despite the numerous pitchers bat ties the batter is still king.
 Another argument in favor of air. tight pitching is that 1t shortens the game and makes it faster. Speed is what the fans demand nowadays, and speed in baseball follows only from good pitching. All the heavy hitting games are lengthy and frequently tire- some affairs; the fans-at least the Barons' fans-seemingly approve the quick, snappy, alright pitching exhi- bitions. The crowds will rush to Rick wood to see Dick Robertson or Ar thur Johnson pitch in preference to other performers, because this sea son both of these young men named are hurling high-class ball and quick, snappy game is expected. We repeat, despite MT. Prentss contentious that good pitching is not displeasing to the modern fan and, incidentally that they are not turning to amateur base ball in order to see more hitting and excitement The amateur game Is still a very dull drab affair compared with the modern scientific baseball ex- hibitions offered in the Southern and the major leagues.

TECH COACH WRONG IN PLACING ALABAMA
Claim That Alabama Played Weak Teams Not Sup
 ported by Facts

University. May 27.-fspecial)-s,ofore Alabama and Auburn played Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical collegs thls season, all three were claimants for the baseball championship. There We're no other schools that had records to justify such a claim. When the Aegies suc- cumbed to Alabama, Chadwick admitted that his crew was out of it. and after the Mississippi boys had dealt Auburn a death blow by a double defeat Coach Donahue said that his team was out of the running. And each of these coaches did not forget to add that Alabama had a righr 10 the leadership of the $. !. A. A. And yet ]. W. Heisman, tho Yellow Jackcets coach, and all-southern authority comes out in The Georgian of May 26 with q re- view of the season In which he places Alabama in a class with Clemson. Mercer Tech, Georgia. Tennessee and the like From games with high class $. I. A. \. teams Tech has emerged with record of wins and losses. Clemson didn't win any games outside South Carolina. yet Clemson Is elassed with real team.
 Heisman's main criticism of Alabama's record of 19 victories and four defeats is tifat Alabama played too many small teams Among such squads he n.aees Birmingham college. Sewanee. Howard which Alabama did not pay--and Cul.ber- land Sewanee showed her superiority over one of>Ieisman's A grade aggrega- tons about two weeks ago, while later on the Tech coach admits that tho work of Birmingham college, Cumberland and Southwestern, among other small college teams was one of the features of tho 1915 season. Certainly victory over Il team whose play featured is worthy of all credit, especially when that team Was shut out, or held to one or two runs, as was generally the case when they went up against Alabama
 No one has taken into consideration that of Alabamas s four deefats three were lost by one run. Tech beat Alabama [ to b by running all of hers over in the first inning Georgia oas o-to-l victor by scoring four in the first round slillsaps defeated Alabama I to when inree. bagger went for home run after the re- turn had hit the branch of a tree Van derhit was the only tuam which did not have to work too hard for her success.
 An infeld whose personnel had to bs
 shifted continually was liable to so up any minute But when 1t did settle down
 the best batters of Tech Georgia ant Agricultural and Mechanical couldn't get a thing through it. Alabama g squad WAS just the best in the s. l. A A. CaYtaln Wells expressed the belief some time ago that the association was not SD strong during the past season as in previous
 years Coach Graves himself states that the strongest team Alabama has had since his regime here ulled to VIII the championshipz-tha of 1912, Tho reca
 coach probably sees weaknesses in the 1 Crimson and White squad which bs 1 thinks did not exist in the championship
 crews of other years, SD that he Is Il Iit- tie doubtful about assigning the flag to 1 any particular one.

Old Jupiter Pluvius prevented the Little Rock Mobile game yesterday, and the ns-Chicks affair was not played ow- ing to the fact that some weeks ago a game in the Memphis schedule had been advanced to meet a Sunday date which enabled the athletes to lay off yesterday. However, the Pelicans and Volunteers got together in five-inning game which was enough to defeat the Pelicans, while in Chattanooga one Rube Marshall applied the whitewash brush to the Atlanta Crackers.

n HE greatest development of
 baseball in recent years has X haen in fhe nitchinr depart-

" HE greatest development of
 baseball in recent years has \ been in the pitching depart ment. Twenty years ago pitcher expected to win oslly when his mates batted in dozen runs or so behind him. Nowadays one run is held to be sufficient for a pitcher in good condition to win. Now, is this alright pitching of benefit to the game? John R. Prentiss, in the Baseball Magazine, says that 1t is not. and further ayers that the fans want the old batting game all over again Really is this so?
 In the recent home stay of the Barons, which was of nearly three weeks duration, and in which IA games were played-10 of them were pitchers battles and the ma Jority won by the Barons. Of the four free hitting affairs it was not noticeable that the fans fully ap- preciated the heavy bombardment of the pitchers as they did the fast ball of Dick Robertson or Arthur Johnson as the batter ingloriously famed. Locally at least good pitch ing Is appreciated fully as much as slugging ability-although it must be admitted that the batter that slugs out the timely hit Is still the greater hero in the eyes of the fans.
 It is said that the development of the modern baseball game has been at the expense of the other depart ments. The hitting, fielding and base running of today is of course superior to that of 20 years ago, but these departments have not ad- vanced as the pitching end of base ball. The pitching of today is far superior. 4he result has been that pitching overshadows the rest of the game The successfulfh hurling has become the dominant factor of the modern game. The result of every contest depends on the pitch ing, other factors help or hinder, but 1t Is the mound work that de- cides the game at the present time. IT eight players outclass their eight opponents the team cannot

BARONS SUCCESSFUL
 IN LONG HOME STAY

In the long home stay just completed the Barons were highly successful. Four teen games were played with the north- ern clubs and 10 were victories credited to the Barons. Robertson Johnson and Hardgrove were the pitchers that were responsible for the bulk of the winning battles. Robertson and Johnson are now the leading pitchers in the league.
 Some scribes are apt to ridicule any iafpnaI claims tosvaEsas attaining the leadership of the league this season but the record of the Barons fails to justify this. The Barons have two of the lead- ing hitters around the circuit, and the two leading base runners. The Barons are also high up In club batting. The Barons admittedly possess the superior pitching staff of any club in the South ern league and just why the Barons can not repeat and win the Southern gon- falon is difficult for any of the scriveners to explain. In fact, there is no explana- ticn-the Barons will win the rag with an even break in the luck of the game.
