BLACK bARONS PLAY
THE GIANTS TODAY

This afternoon at Redwood
park the series between the
Chicago Giants and the Bir-
mingham Black Barons will be-
gin. There will be one game
today, one tomorrow, and the
deciding contest of the series
will be played Thursday.
The Giants arrived in Birmingham
yesterday afternoon at o'clock and
are now ready to take on the Black
Barons. Undoubtedly a hot game will
be played today, as both teams are
exceptionally strong.
This is to decide the worlds cham
pionship among the negro teams. The
Giants are support to be the strongest
team in the northern part Of the coun-
try. and they now claim the champion
ship. After the Ensley team. the Black
Barons was defeated by former Acipco
players, a new team, composed OF for
mer Ensley and Acipco players. was
formed. and is the present Black Ba-
ron team.
This new team visited Atlanta DUR
ing the past week, and took three
straight games from the Cubs. This
won the southern championship for
them and they are now ready not only
to defend their title, but also to go
after that of the Giants.
1t is thought that Smith, former
Atlanta Cub moundsman, will work for
the locals today. while it was said last
night that Foster will twirl the opener
for Giants. The ability of Smith
cannot be doubted. as he has proved
one OF the best negro pitchers yet seen
in Birmingham. Foster is said to be
mighty good pitcher himself, and will
be able to give Smith a hard battle
Taken all in all. this series promises
to be the fastest and hardest fought
yet played between negro mines in Biz
mingham. A record crowd is expected
to attend today's game, as much in
terest has been shown in the cham.
pionship series. The game will be
called at $3.50 o'clock.

Cincinnati has won its first pennant
since the National league began.
The staff of men who hurled the Reds
to the crest is made up largely OF
pitchers that other teams in the circuit
figured as unworthy of their hire.
Dutch Ruether, the champion
moundsman of the National league OF
1919, is a Cub "castoff." They couldn
see him there. He was supposed to be

1t would seem that if you want to win
flag in the Heydler organization it is
well to get together a collection OF
insists and "castoffs."
During the last six years only one
'-class team has climbed to the Oc-
tober heights. In the five other sea-
sons the club that represented the Ma
tional in the worlds series battling was
a club made up of material that WASH t
conceded look in" at the outset of
the festivities.
Back in 1914 the Stallings crew upset
all the dope" that ever was concocted
by winning not only a pennant but
worlds series honors. The bulk of the
Braves roster of that year was made up
of ball players that other clubs had
tossed aside, while almost all others were
players that no team in either circuit
ranked among the real stars of the
game.
Random hardly recovered it's breath
after that shock when Pat Moran's 1915
Phillies battered opposition to a pulp,
and raced to pennant heights, the Phillies
winning the first Philadelphia National
league pennant in history. And with a
crowd of baseballers the "dopsters" con-
sidered cellar material! 1t was shock
to fans in all the cities represented by
eo-called class teams.

HUGO RELEASED
 WITHOUT RANSOM
American Prisoner is Set Free By Villistas, Who Depart With L00t-Phillips Also was Freed.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The state department was notified officially late today that Frederick Hugo, the Amer ican seized by bandits in the recent raid on Muzquiz, Texas, had been re- leased and had returned to Muzouiz, Conditions upon which he was set free were not stated in the message, but the departments announcement said it was supposed no ransom had been paid.
 The official report came from the American consul at Piedras Negras, Mexico, and added it was possible that Phillips, an American, also captured during the raid and whose first name was not known here, had been released likewise.
 The announcement followed earlier action by the department, the embassy at Mexico City and the consul at Piedras having been instructed to make representations to the Carranza government officials with a view to obtaining the release of the two Americans.
 Details of the abduction of the two Americans were lacking, the depart ment's advices as made public, saying merely that the town had been footed .
 before the Villistas evacuated it. Pending more complete information as to the manner of the release of the captives, no intimation was available at the state department of the extent to which this latest incident has af- fected the admittedly increasing deli

80 PER CENT ARE
 NOW MINING COAL
Consumption Restriction is Be- ing Relaxed as Supply is Aug mented-Senatorial Investiga- tiOn is Halted.

Washington, Dec. 15.-Restrictions on the consumption of bituminous coal continued to go by the board today as the railroad administration, now in charge of the distribution of supplies, received reports indicating that eighty per cent of the striking miners had returned to work. Orders were is- sued by Director General Hines allow ing bunker coal to be supplied to foreign owned vessels in American harbors whenever the local supply is sufficient to fill the requirements of coastwise and American owned ships. Foreign vessels had their coal supply cut off early in the coal crisis.
 Senatorial investigation of the strike settlement proposal offered by the government and accepted by the miners was temporarily halted today while Chairman Frelinghuysen and members of hte Investigating sub- committee considered the policy to be adopted. It was said after a long executive session, that the committee had not decided as to whether it would formally demand documents in the possession of Dr. Harry A. Gar field, former fuel administrator, who resigned because of his disagreement with the settlement proposals, or as to whether Attorney General Palmer and other officials would be called.
 The committee, however, decided to resume hearings and summoned R. B. Norris, one of the engineers of the fuel administration to furnish the sta- tistics on which Dr. Garfield based his suggestion that IA per cent increase in wages be given the miners and paid out of the operators profits without raising prices of coal. Attorney Gen. eral Palmer, who signified last week that he would appear if the committee permitted him, left Washington to- night for the middle-west to continue the governments campaign against high prices and increased cost of liv- ing through conference with state and federal officials. He will be in Chi cago tomorrow and from there ex- poets to go to Little Rock and Okla homa City.
 Coal operators of the central con- petitive field in a statement tonight declared miners in the various fields were returning to work slowly. Not more than forty per cent of the men have returned in the central Pennsyl- vania field, one of the largest in the country, the statement said, and a small percentage had returned in the southwestern field Indiana reported practically all of the men back at work, while in Illinois, it was esti- mated that less than ten per cent of the strikers had returned in the Franklin county field.
