in the old days when Bob was secre tary for the Birmingham Baseball club, he liked to sit in the stand and watch a game of baseball. That was the ex- tent of his athletic activity. He is now a swimming bug of the first water, and has developed into a remarkably good swimmer. He took to this line of sport last summer when he was secre- tary for the park and got to be such an enthusiast that he applied for the bathing concession this summer and got it"
 An innovation will be introduced alt East Lake this summer according to an announcement of the management, which has never been attempted in an inland town, but which is very popular in beach towns, and has been quite a fad at AL lantic City for the past few years. Roll- ing chairs, both hand-pushed and motor- driven. have been installed and these will be placed in commission at the start of the season. It will give the patron- age an opportunity to go around the lake, to roll out on the pier of the pub lie utility building and in fact, traverse the park in it's entirety and visit the many amusements.
 Mir Hill seems sure that this new nov- city will prove quite hit.
 Playground equipment for the kiddies costing several thousand dollars has all ready been installed.

 This was the question asked yesterday when it becAme known the committee on arrangements for Tuesday nights meet ing at the Jefferson theatre would be open to the ladies also The committee composed of Frank S. White, Jr., LeRoy Jacobs and Dr. Cecil Gaston also Ter it be known that the charter of the Jeff ferson County World War Veterans as- sociation pr pvided for the inclusion oi members of both of the army and navy nurse corps as members
 Why not?t said Private "Bilr' Cosby, who recently returned from France throughout France the girls did their part and whole lot more. And the fell lows who req ched the hospitals want them in the organiza zation on an equal basis. Iu the training camps of this country the women were always doing something of self sacrificial nature for the boys in khaki They did it for the gobs also So anytime there's a meeting of world wal veterans, I want the ladies interested. They are just as much veterans as any one of us, and most of them have deeper scars of the war than we have"

BIRMINGHAM LOSES GREAT OPPORTUNITY
 IN CHEMICAL LINE
Caldwell Says Worlds Sup ply of Beauxite in South, But Not One Aluminium
 Factory Found Here

Wallace L. Caldwell discussed
 "Chemicals, and the possibility
 of the development of that indus
 try in Birmingham at the Com-
 munity luncheon at the Southern
 club yesterday.
 He stated that while the possibilit for for development is unlimited. that only development is unlimited that only the ray materials had so far been produced as a particularly inviting field. as these are now shipped to the north and east. where they are converted into various chemicals.
 ~Bfrmingham is in position to take leading part in the electrochemtcai industry,'' Mir. Caldwell said, ''as the developed and potential electric power in tbis district is greater than that at Niagara Falls. Some city is going to take advantage of this and there Is no reason why Bfrmin gham should not be that city.-
 Mir Caldwell said the worlds supply of beauxite from which aluminium IS made is furnished by the states of Ala bama, Georgia and Arkansas, and that not a pound of aluminium is made in the south. An aluminum factory is be- ing built at Knoxville, but it is the only one even now being built in the south.
 He said Birmingham makes fertili- gers on an extensive scale, but in other chemical lines very little progress had been made.
