BASKET BALL FAN
PICKS ALL-STATE
PREP CAGE TEAM

Dear Sporting Editor: am send
ing my selection for an all-Alabama
High school basket ball team that l
think could hold its own with any team
in the state.
at forward, Gossett of Dora and
Griffin of General are two of the best
seen on high school teams in many
years. Gossett is an excellent shot
and a good passer. He gets all over
the floor in following the ball Griffin
is also a good shot and is especially
good in rough and tumble game. At
center, Grimes OF Dora stood out head
and shoulders over his nearest rival.
Hudson of Montgomery and Yeak of
Central are the two selected as guards.
Both are hard workers and keep the
ball near their goal at all times. Hud-
son is also a good shot as well as a
good passer. Leake plays a sticking
game, always under the opponents goal
after his man.
Hoping to see other selections on
your page, I beg to remain yours sin
cerely. F. r. PRAYER"

NEW YORK BOXING
BILL NOW PENDING
Bill introduced to LegaliZe
Prize Fights Under State
Control
BY Associated Press

Albany. n. Y. March 19.-At the re-
suest of the army and navy and civilian
board of boxing control there was in
PRODUCED in the legislature today bill
designed to provide for the 1egalizing
of boxing bouts. This is the third box
ing hill presented to the 1919 session.
Under the provisions of the measure
xhere would be a state athletic com
missioner and two deputies to super
wise boxing Twelve-round contests
would be permitted, with decisions Civ
On by a referee and two judges. Five

xestant would be subjected to an ex-
animation by a physician before en-
4ering the ring. the contestants would
be more than II years of age and no
boy under 1s years would be admitted
as spectator.
The unique feature of the bill is in
the provision that all boxers, promo

referees, trainers and handlers would
be licensed by the army and navy ana
civilian board of boxing control, which
already has been incorporated by the
secretary of state. The licenses would
be forfeited in the event of any offense
being committed. The purpose of the
licensing is to obtain as complete con-
troll over boxing as is exercised by the
Jockey clubs over racing.

president of the board of boxing con-
troll; Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood is chair
maj, of the army committee and Ad-
yairal Henry T Mayo has been asked

They Are Natures Warning
Of Impure Blood

ne skin is composed of two
slsst net layers. One is known
he epidermis, or outer skin,
VII h has no fibres, and serves
,saIr .ipally as a covering to the
bod and protection from out
va dangers to the delicate
flesh beneath. The other layer
is known as the derma, or true
skin, and is composed of elastic
fibres, fat tissue, glands,
lymphatics, nerves, etc. The
thousands of tiny veins and ar
teries with which it is inter-
laced constantly supply every
fibre and tissue with healthful
properties from the circulation
to keep the skin smooth and
perfect.
This is changed, however,
when the blood becomes infect
ed with humors, acids or i'm
purities. Instead of constantly
supplying rich, nutritive prop
critics to the skin, the circula-
ton deposits the acrid inn
purity with which it is con-
taminated, into the sensitive
fibres and tissues. This causes
irritation and inflammation,
which splits or breaks the thin
outer cuticle, while the tissues
beneath ulcerate and discharge
upon the surface in the form of
Eczema, Salt Rheum, letter,
etc. There is likewise a dry
form of skin diseases, such as
Acne, Psoriasis, etc.
Just as long as the blood re-
mains pure the skin will be free
from eruptions, but when the

IDENTIFY so anxious to get back on Rick
wood soil that he cabled Moley to rush
along his contract Moley is of the
opinion that Glazner hopes to use the
contract to get an early discharge from
the service in order to start the season
here with the Barons.
The local manager expects to have a
number of youngsters on hand for the
first practice at Redwood next Mon
day.
The following players have signified
their intention of being here on that
date: Slapnicka, Mcdonald, Peters,
Hairston. Bernsen, Ellis, Duncan, Sam
uels, Ballmer, Claypool and Jones. Ha-
worth and Jansen are in town now,
rearing to go.

league stars and has several lines out
with which he hopes to hook in some
promising material.

seven youngsters required to be carried.
OF course. the Baron boss isn't ready
to express an opinion on the situation
yet. but fans are beginning to specu-
late as to just where the seven kids
can be most profitably placed.
HAY IS A CINCH
It's a practical certainty that Ha-
worth will be first catcher. It's also
an almost cinch bet that GlaZner, Slap
nicka and Coffindaffer will adorn the
mound. GlaZner, however, comes under
the youngster class because he didn't
play with the locals in 1917. Comstock,
if he decides to report, will very likely
make a berth on the mound but at
