PITCHERS BATTLE
AT MAXENT TODAY
Wet Grounds Prevented Yesterdays
Contest, But Today's Will
Be Good.

Owing to wet grounds there was no
game at Maxent park yesterday be-
tween the fast Albright-WoOd club
and Pensacola, but there will be one
today, and probably two Monday.
Today's game promises to be the
best of the season, as Micky Finnigan
will be seen on the mound for Mobile,
and Captain Eagan will probably send
Gutter" Bombay in for Pensacola.
Owing to the loss of r. Scarrett, the
star Outfielder, who has returned to
school, Pensacola has signed Jeude-
vine of the Brewton club to run the
outer garden.
With either Gaines or Robinson be-
hind the bat, the base runners will
have to watch their step.
Wentworth, the steady first sacker,
will be seen on the initial bag, with
the same old pep"
Captain Eagan will take care of the
keystone bag. in the same. old style as
before, with Brains Ellis on the hot
corner will be hard to beat.
Owing to Ty Green leaving town,
Sanchez will probably be be seen at
short. Silk Villar is hitting them a
mile a minute now, and can't be
touched in the field. with Harry Scar
rett and judy playing the same class
ball, the Outfeld will be hard to beat.
Williams. the classy McGowan-L Lyon
pitcher. will probably work Mondays
game for Mobile, with Kent Sneed or
"Cammie" Bombay opposing him.
Other Mobile players are: D. Steber,
NJ. Steber, Dixon, Eanes, Lacey, Spi-
Ger and Kircher.
Pensacola has so far been unable to
beat Finnigan, but will go after him
properly this time
The game will start promptly at so
p. m. and Jim Laird will handle the

MARION, Ohio, Oct 1. - In a front porch speech today outlining his pro gram of social justice, Senator Hard ing described enforcement of law as fundamental of social progress, re gardlesS of the private opinions of exc cutive officials, and declared particu- larly that we must all condemn with out qualification the failure to enforce prohibition"
 A federal department Of public wei fare was advocated by the nominee, but he proclaimed his opposition to concentration of too much authority in Washington and asserted that there was grave danger in authorizing the federal government to take from To cal communities all the burdens of so- cial conscience"
 Speaks of Prohibition The allusion to prohibition was the first to be made publicly by the can didate since his speech of acceptance and he did not follow it with de- tailed discussion of the prohibition statutes. In addition to law enforce ment, he spoke for industrial peace, protection of maternity, humane regu lation of labor conditions, promotion of public health, ald to child welfare and stabilization of employment as factors in special betterment.
 Address to Women
 The speech was delivered to dele gation of women from many parts of the country, and the senator took oc- casion to present the league issue as. 1t affects woman's interests and to re- state his opposition to the Versailles covenant. Reading Article 10, he de- clared he was not in favor of that covenant" The crowd which heard the speech and cEeered it many times was one of the largest of the front porch campaign. Several special trains brought delegations of women to Marion, and most of the commer cial establishments here employing women closed their doors to permit attendance.
