CITY CHAMPIONSHIP

There is some talk of city cham
pionship post season series. A pennant
can be gotten from a leading sporting
goods dealer and 1t would be some
satisfaction to some team winning in
their own league then winning over
the other leagues winners.
At present the winners of the various
leagues appear as follows
Sunday school league, First Christian
church; B. /. Il. league. American Rail-
way Express company; Tennessee
Furniture league, Tennessee Furniture
company. or winner of first series ;
Textile league, Standard Processing
company. Wunderhose or Crystal
Springs bleachery; Industrial league,
Casey Hedges company or Mascot
Stove company.
The past summer has witnessed the
biggest season In amateur baseball that
Chattanooga ever experienced. In the
five leagues there were three of six
teams each, one with five and another
with four. total of twcnty-seven
teams. representing from 270 as a min
imlm to some 400 different players.
Thousands of spectators from the Of
fees, plants and schools represented
were furnished clean and wholesome
amusement.
1t would seem that there are large
possibilities for enlisting these players
in fall and winter athletics, such as
volley bal, basketball and even foot
ball leagues. The Y. M, G. A., which
stands ready to perform its proper
function in this regard and with a
recently newly Installed physical d.

CUBAN ATTITUDE ON
DROP In SUGAR PRICE

(The Christian Science Monitor.)
New York.--What the attitude of the.
Cuban mill owners and sugar planters
Is toward the present: decline IN 9the
price Of their product in the United
States is shown In an interview with
Ramon J. Martinez. secretary of the
Cuban Association OF Sugar Mil own
ers and Cane Planters. as published In
the "Prensa" OF this city. He says in
part:
'''rhe problem Is very simple, and
only requires an attitude OF union and
strength on the part OF the sugar hold
ers to resist and withdraw from the
market. The Cuban mill owners and
lea consumer will only offer 151a cents
for 1t. Under such conditions, we will
not sell. or we will sell to other mar
kets In greater need OF II.
Tho strange and extraordinary part
Is that the American sugar trust has no
desire to favor tho American public In
Its demands. Far from It. The differ
ences between Is cents and 20 cents
that would fail to go to the Cuban sugar
interests II they yielded to tho wishes
OF tho combine, would be added to tho
gross profits that would fatten the
treasury OF few American reflners
composing the group. who would con-
tinue selling sugar at the same price
at which they have been selling to date.
There is a sugar shortage in the
United States, but tho refiners want to
make II appear the other way. Such
condition cannot prevail much longer,
and tho day win como when sugar post
lively win be lacking. and then de-
mand will make II worth 30 cents In
stead OF % cents pound.
THE above Ia the reason that we are
now urging measures OF consolidation
and strength among sugar holders, the
lack OF which has greatly benefited tho
American trust on former occasions,
especially when they succeeded In
frightening min owners and planters re-
Gently and bought their sugars at 16
and II cents. Now II Is very differ
ent matter, as we will control our
stocks. and sugars win be sold at prices
we ind suitable TO our interests,
you can see that for yourself when
you realize that we already have ,20O,-
900 bags under control out OF total
of 100000 bags remaining from the
last crop. I am almost certain that we
will succeed in securing the remainder
of the stock. In regard to sale at Eu-
ropoen markets, where sugars are
quoted at very high prices, | will say
that we have already sold 10000 bags,
which will be shipped in the near flu
ture"

While the run will not end up at the old swimming hole or some other rem devous of that sort, local bicycle folk have provided entertainment enough ed attractions. If your bicycle is a brand new 1920 model with mud guards and a shock absorbing seat, or if 1t is a relic of the dim and distant past, when double tube tires were in vogue, you are free to mount 1t and go along. All of the young in years will be there. and all of the old in years but young in spirit have been accorded an invitation to join, the crowd and take a memory trip back to the days gone by.
