WANT PER CAPITA TAX
REDUCED? ATTEND MEET
If Enough Are Present TO
Protest Council Will
Make 1t So

There is considerable talk among
the citizens of Bogalusa who have
to pay SIS per capita tax as voted
and recommended by the recent
Mass meeting, as to whether it
would not he better to collect a
smaller amount this year and COM
mence work on the streets gradually.
After discussing the matter with
Mayor Sullivan, 1t has been suggest
ed that if a sufficient number of
citizens interested in the subject
would attend the regular meeting of
the Commission Council On the first
Tuesday in March, the Commission
Council would be very glad to con-
slider whether the tax should be SIS
or So. The Mayor suggested that it
might be a good plan to reduce it to
3 dollars and have it payable l
dollar on the first of April, | dollar
on the first of May and dollar on
the first of June, and in the ordin-
ance recommend that every one
who feels able to do so. pay 5 dollars
per year instead of 3 dollars. There
are many of our citizens who are
using the streets and who, we have
no doubt, would be very glad to
pay 5 dollars.
1t is the desire of the Commission
. Council to have all these matters
satisfactory to the citizens in general
and it is especially requested that
if there are any citizens of the city
, who feel that it would be better to
levy 8 dollar per capita tax than to
levy a 5 dollar tax, that they attend
the meeting Of the Council on the
, first Tuesday of March or write
, letter to the Mayor sometime before
that date, giving their views on the
subject.

GUS GRAY MAY PUT
PEPCO nine in field
Manager of Former Southern Amateur
Baseball Champions May Have
Team This Season.

Little things like snow storms or sIeet
doesn't keep Gus Gray and that aggre-
CATION Of ball players who earn their
daily bread and butter working for the
Potomac Electric Power Company, from
talking baseball.
The Pepco gang. one-time amateur
champions of the South, plans to get
back into the local amateur baseball
scramble during the coming season, and
with Gus Gray as the general factortum,
again expects to show National Capt. al
fans real championship aggregat ton.
This may seem a bit premature at this
stage, but Gus Is serious He has the
nucleus Of mighty sweet combination
on his pay role at present, including Alec
GIL, that snappy little infelder who
first gained fame at Tech High, Ted Sui
livan, product of the Georgetown sand
lots. who can work a nifty game in
the box as well as sneak around the
outfield: Jimmy Green, the Johnny
Evers' Of amateur baseball, and one of
the best outer gardeners ever seen on
a local amateur lot, and Bobby" Grams
ton, chunky third sacker.
With the return from college Of "Yel-
low" Myers, Buck Howard and a host
OF others, Gus will be able to round out
team which Will remind the fans of
the times when old man George Cornell
and Maurice O'Connor were fighting for
the championship of the city, and such
players as Billy Marceron, Cy MacDon-
aid, Johnny salb, Jack Hurley, Silk
carroll, Bugs" Symanoski and Jimmy
Donnelly were the king pin stars
With Gus Gray and Pepco back in the
amateur fold indications for a successful
season would be much brighter than last
year. when the game suffered here to
no small degree.
