HIGH QUALITY OIL FOUND IN ENGLAND
By Associated Press

London, Thursday, May 2s.-(Britisf Wireless Service l-For the first time mineral oil of high quality and in con siderable quantities even at it's first flow has been discovered in England. Fol some months past, through the initiative of Lord Cowdray, experimental borings have been in progress near Chesterfield in Derbyshire. Oil was first struck on Tuesday night at depth of approxl- mately 5000 feet.
 The surface of the oil bearing sand has only been scratched as yet and il is hoped that deeper criIiing will in- crease the flow. The test has shown 1t to be of high quality.
 Lord Cowdray's firm. which is carry ing out the borings, is working as an agent of the government.

Hundreds of fans will journey to Rick wood just to see this boy Boone pitch While with the University of Alabama team Boone was picked on every all- Southern nine. and since joining the Crackers he has pitched two three hit games. He will be- caught by his college battery mate. Lena Styles We have seen half a dozen colleges play ball this year, but Stevenson, the Alabama shortstop. looked better to us than any rah. rah player we lamped. Acton, out at Howard. is some nifty hitter himself.
 The St. Louis Browns are surprising everybody, including themselves, by win- ming with daily regularity now. Mana
 ger Burke has already made big hit
 in the brewery burg.
 Pat Duncan and Bernsen failed to land in the hit column, but watch this pair in the double bill tomorrow. Both have been coming through in grand style all season. and they have accounted for many Baronian victories. Capt Sam Mayer is the only old face on the Atlanta team. Galloway played at second for a while last season and Scrappy Moore subbed at third. Fred Bfatcnl came to the Ill d NlduS with Memphis for Christenberry. Doc Johnson is putting up such a grand game at first base for Cleveland that even low Harris return hasn't ex- cited the fans a bit.
 Next time Morrison pitches, try to get a seat in the bull pen and watch his curve ball break over the pan. If you don't say it's the biggest curve in the league, we'll buy the dopes. Sam Crews fast ball takes such quick hop that he has often been accused of using emery on 1t. Sams slants are not as wide as Morrys. but they break a
 little quicker.
 After the games Monday and Tuesday
 the Barons hit the road and are gone
 nearly two weeks.
