Down in Newton. Ala. there is
youth Of great ambitions. He is Ctar-
ence Shovel Hodge, risht-handed
hurler, who will attempt to make up
part of the losses suffered when Eddie
Cicotte and Claude Williams were
suspended from the White Sox staff.
Hodge joined the Sox late last season
and in a game against Detroit made
whale OF showing for newcomer.
The southern lad is Of the tall,
rangy variety. such As Frank Chance
always demanded when picking mound
talent for his great Cub machine.
Hodge is a curve and fast ball special
list and so far as can be learned from
his record always has boosted fairly
good control. something noteworthy
for a minor Lacquer.
Hodge made the grade from nowhere
into the big show in period of six
years. He first played professional ball
in 1915 with the Dathon, Ala. club of
the F. l.. A. G.. league, winning four
teen and losing twelve games. His
hardest battle that season, and one he
still looks back upon as his greatest
achievement. was 4 seventeen-inning
ohuil 'liN vi July 7. 1iS
pitched the full route and gave only six
hits and five passes, but was beaten,
3 TO ..
The season of 1916 found Shovel
with the Montgomery club of the Sally
league. Next year he was at Jackson
vile, Fla, under Lee Tannehill, old
Sox star Waco. Texas, was his next
stopping place and he finished the
season there by winning his last six
starts. In 1918 be was out OF baseball
because OF the war and when he re-
turned to waco the next season he
was so far off form that he was shipped
to the Nashville club Of The Southern
association. He wourd up there in
such impressive style that he was told
to come back for his job in the
spring.

NULL GONE; TAGGART
COACHES HIGH SQUAD

Daily practice on the Y. M. c. A.
floor is being carried on by the high
school basketball team under the d.
rection of Mr.. Taggart, during the
absence of Coach Null. Indications are
that the lineup of the Red and White
squad will be about the same as
played against Shelbyville last week
for the rest of the season.
The high school players are getting
in some good work at passing and
each man gets chance to demon
strate his worth at shooting goals
from close range as a result of the
system being drilled by Coach Null
and Taggart.
The next game for the high school is
with Muncie on the Muncie floor. The
old rivalry that has always existed be-
tween these two schools will be as
strong as usual this year and both
will battle for the edge to be gained
by winning this game. The high school
faculty will also play that night. get
ting into action against the Muncie
high school faculty team.
The men composing the first team in
the practices this week are Harkins
and Rost. forwards: Loehr at center.
and Lehman and Green at guards. The
defense of the high school is especially
strong, but they are unable 10 work
the ball down the floor to ring up the
necessary markers to win a game.
They are working on this most of their
time and indications are that they will
take the floor next week. able to drop

SPECTACULAR RALLY
FUTILE FOR LEGION
IN FAST net GAME

Staging a spectacular rally in the
final 10 minutes of play, the American
Legion basketball team forged into the
lead a minute before the close Of the
game, only to be showed out in turn
by the Merchants Heat and Light team
Of Indianapolis a few seconds before
the close. the final score being 26 70 70
In favor of the Merchants, IN the con-
test staged at the Coliseum Wednes-
day night.
The Richmond team played in rare
fashion all through the contest, not
being willing to admit the superiority
Of the visitors at any time and con-
tinuing their bombardment of the bas-
kets with regularity throughout the 40
minuets of play. Quick passing. fast
aribbling, and a splendid system OF
team work enabled the locals to make
a great showing against the highly
touted Independents from the Capital
City.
Outstanding Stars.
Outstanding stars Of the game are
hard to pick because of the style OF
game played by both teams. Simmons,
. legion center, led the offense of the
locals by slipping six field goals
through the draper!es from difficult
angles. ONeille came along with some
timely shots during the last 10 minutes
hitting the loop for three goals during
the closing minutes which brought the
legion into the running when the Mer-
chants team seemed to have a COM
Portable lead.
f. Stevens was the chief offensive
player Of indianapolis. but Taylor, CEN
ter for the visitors, played better all
around game covering the door In a
marvellous fashion. He was probably
the best player on the floor during the
game.
Legion Comes Back.
The first half ended with the Mer-
chants in the lead 10 to IL, and it
seemed as If they would continue their
attack on the basket in the second
period. The legion came back in the
last period and played real basketball.
demonstrating that they have the cali
bre for a first-class independent
organization.
Jessup was substituted for Chapel
and played during the second half. He
showed he still had his old cunning
and was largely instrumental in hold
ing the visitors to two field goals in
the last half. The team that was on
the floor during this period resembled
the old high school team of 1917 when
O'Neille, Jessup, Simmons and Nc
Bride were in the lineup.
Make Good Showing.
The showing of the locals against
the team last night will put them IN a
position to book some of the fastest
independent teams in the state and
local fans probably will see several
other high class Independent games
during the year. The lineup and sum

Off Ranchers' Cattle

Winnemucca, Nev.-A wild
man lives on the Owyhee desert,
a great stretch Ct bleak, barren
country on the eastern part of

Oregon. according to ranchers.
They said they had seen him
many times, but that no one was
ever able to approach him until
last fall when some riders sur
rounded him and made him talk.
He looked wild. they reported,
and his hair and beard were
long. The men let him go.
Now the ranchmen of that Sec

low is killing their cattle and
sheep. ON which he lives. and
they are requesting the Oregon
authorities to catch him and
look after him.
