ATTACK ROBERTS
ADMINISTRATION

Hon. E. L. Writ, candidate for
governor of Tennessee spoke in the

said that he had become candidate
because he thought there was an ur-
gent demand for someone to oppose
Gov. Roberts. He criticized the
prohibition laws, the dog law, and
the tax assessment law, charged the
present state chief executive with
extravaganza and promised along
with other reforms if elected to be
more economical in administering
state affairs.

FROGS AND OTHER FROGS

"Frogs is frogs" unless they meas

as did one killed this week by R. l,
Parker in the T. G. McFadden pond,
near Shady Grove, then it's a whop-

getting too hot to argue about frogs

Langford Sewers Connection With
 Football Duties

The retirement of William s. Langford from the list of football officials avail able for eastern gridiron classics, has come as bolt from the clear to- many of the institutions which were wont to de- pend upon the Trinity mans presence in an official capacity at the most im- portant contests.
 Langford kept his retirement an abso- lute secret until he was ready for the big announcement, nor has he yet as signed reason for his action but &C., cording to Walter Camp and other grid authorities, it is not difficult to ascertain what prompted the step.
 Among the few officials obtainable for the greatest of college gridiron contests, Langford was regarded as perhaps the best of a too small gathering. He was inn partiality itself and from the first to the last blast of the whistle he always in- sisted upon everything being strictly in accord with "the book
 The 1919 season with it's close and gruel- ling games and it's many upsets in tho dope, is no doubt responsible for Lang- ford's decision to quit the gridiron. On two occasions, he was obliged to obtain police guard when he was ready to leave the premises after the game, when small groups of undergraduates threatened to assault him to avenge what thev termed unfair rulings against their favorites.
 It is certain however. that I'r"forf anticinated taking this sten in 1916 At that time he complained that the nav s25 to $50 per game-was not commensc- rate with the work done and the abuse taken, but he was prevailed upon to re- main on the roster by those prominent in intercolleeiate circles. who partially promised to support a measure looking toward raise in the salary of officials.
 Langford will be sorelv missed. Not only was he fearless in the perforr'ance of his duty. but in the role of referee he was somewhat of a s-aectacular fiTure on the big football fields. as he raied about the group of warriors in and out with the aeiity of a cat his arms way ing the number of the down and the direction of the ball In the matter of running the game and keeping the crowds informed Langford probably tcoll more pains to leave nothing 10 guess than any other American official

Bar0ns Have
 Shown Great
 Improvement

The Barons have shown a decided m- provement in their style of play the past week, losing but one game out of five played. One was tied and three credited as victories to Moleys men. This is .75O ball. some 450 better than the average of the Barons before departing on the road trip.
 Three Baron twirlers have turned in some mighty good work the past weeA Tcm Gallagher, recent acquisition from the Louisville Colonels, won his game easily, allowing the Mobile Bears only one hit. Gallagher showed consider able promise. in his initial appearance for the Barons.
 Joe Coffindaffer won a nice game from the Pelieans last Sunday and yesterday held the Birds to a and 0 tie. Coffy allowed New Orleans only four hits yse- terday.
 Gazner won his first game of the sea-
 son Friday against New Orleans. He was touched for only four safe hits. Morrison lost disappointing game to
 Mobile Thursday. Worry pitched splen-
 did ball, but his teammates failed to
 back him up properly, and medley of errors presented the Bears with three
 runs, enough to win the game by a two run margin.
 The Barons left New Orleans last night for Chattanooga to meet the Lookouts in four contests, winding up the series in Chattanooga Wednesday. Thursday, May G. the Memphis Chicks will come to Birmingham for their first game with the Barons.
 Memphis will play three games in Bir- mingham, then the Barons have an off day. Nashville will be here to play at Redwood May 10. After the one-ganfe series with the Vols, the Barons jump to Nashville for another road trip. If the last five games may be relied upon as representative, the Barons are certainly on the road to the pennant. The Baronial twirlers seem to be round- ing around into good form now. The pitching problem has been Moley's great [ lest worry, and if this end of the team can come up to standard. Birmingham should be able to see the way clear to the championship.

Club Work Ideals

For the past ten or twelve years
there has been a steady drift Of the
young people Of the rural districts
toward the city. This drift has be-
come so great that a need has been
seen by the National Government to
take steps to prevent and in a mea-
sure curtail it. Upon investigation il
has been found that high wages and
short hours are not the only causes
for a city-ward migration but that
the amusements and society of the
city play important parts. There has
not been enough social life, not
enough amusement, in the country,
and the young men and women Of the
rural districts have gone where such
society and amusement could be OBJ
tanned. In a word the young people
have not been educated 10 the coun-
try.
The need of educating and anus
ing the boys and girls was seen and
steps have been taken to fill that
need. The primary step being the
forming of social and educational
clubs among the boys and girls. Boys
and Girls clubs have become national
institutions and are doing their bit
toward helping to maintain a perman-
ent rural population.
What are Boys and Girls clubs?
They are regularly organized clubs
among boys and girls within the ages
of ten to eighteen with the purpose of
teaching their members some useful
facts in agriculture or home econom-
les and, too, affording them a social
connection, good time. Their mem
bers take up some project, such as
raising a pig or a calf, or sewing or
cooking, and under the tuition of a
local leader carry that project
through a year to successful compile
ton. Boys and Girls clubs not only
offer some education but also
chance for their members to meet So
cially, to get together and to have a
good time.
In order that club work may be a
z,,oao,. IN opv Community there must
be two things present. There must
be desire for club work in the com
munity and there must be some one in
that community who is willing to de-
vote little time and great deal OF
enthusiasm to the work. If you are
interested in club work, if you want
to see it grow, if you want it in your
community, write or talk to W. B.
at Roy.
