 Sam Agnew, catcher for Vernon last year, and formerly of Washington, is with the Seals this year, strength enlng spot on the team that was con- sidered weak in 1919. He has had an accident to his hand and may not be sable to start the season.
 Jim Scott, former pitcher for the Chicago White Sox, made better showing in preseason training than he did last year. Seaton, one of the best in the league last year. apparently is as good as ever. Much is expected of Ray Jordan, who was with Buffalo last year Casey Smith and Johnny Couch just out of the army last year, and consequently not too good, are expect ed to pitch better ball this year. The club needs a left-hander, baseball ex- perts here say.
 Last years infie1d is preserved in tact Koerner is at first, Caveney is at second, and Willie Kamm, now a year out of the bushes, is at third Corban is shortstop.
 In the outfeld, it is said, Fitzgerald, right field, is the only man sure of his job. Herb Hunter and Maurie Schick are hold-overs from last year Joe Connolly and Jim O'Connen are a acouple of young ones who look good enough to have chance to crowdain'

For the Good of
 the Community

NOTHING remains for Alabamians N but building higher atop of the completed foundation.
 Nothing further need be asked of gov ernment or of Providence.
 Every bedrock has been placed How? Let's see:
 The water power bill enables the url- limited development of hydroelectricity which, in turn, opens up an unlimited field of industry. The electro-chemical age is at hand in Alabama
 Each power dam that is constructed stretches the mileage of inland waterway navigation. We can vision the Coosa navi- gable from Rome, Ga., to the gulf, $50 miles.
 Agreement on the government opera tion of the Muscle Shoals nitrate works assures cheap fertilizers for the farmers of Alabama and the south
 Three by-product works have been added to the Alabama roster, increasing the number of ovens to 1, JAY with an an- nual coal consuming capacity of 6,0O0,- 900 tons and an annual coke producing capacity of 4,500,000 tons These count for extension of the Alabama pig iron market and the permanency of Alabama irons ability to care for itself in sharply competitive fields.
 Inland waterway transportation has been assured by new steel craft and ap plances for the Warrior and the build ing of river terminal for Birmingham, making Birmingham the rail and water shipping gateway of all northern Ala bama and portions of Georgia, Missis- sippi and Tennessee.
 The Mobile coal terminals assure an unlimited outlet for bunker and export Alabama coal. This means the stability of Alabama coal under any domestic market conditions and any state of car congestion.
 They are building 9,600-ton and small Ter steel craft of Birmingham steel at Mo- bile on continuing and permanent basis Finished ships are already on the high seas carrying Birmingham steel products to Europe and to Asia.
 With government aid and S25,000,- 900 state bond issue the state is building permanent highway system connecting every county site with every other and the outlying counties with neighboring \ states. This completes the Alabama transportation scheme of rails, rivers, highways and motor trucks.
 Perhaps the sweetest music comes from the farms. The one-crop system has been so far discarded that cotton is but one of many diversified crops. Cattle and hogs constitute greater value. The values of H Alabama farm crops in the years named were as follows.
 19o9-$144,2 ,287, 900.
