BASEBALL SIDELIGHTS

Can any one imagine any harder luck
than to be granted yard privilege on
such an ideal day as Saturday for ball
game and then have no game scheduled?
Well, cheer up fans, and at the same time
you must remember that since the closing
game last season and up to the present
time, some of our we'll known players
have left our immediate fold, causing our
old team to be in badly disorganized
condition. However, there has, no doubt,
been many new recruits in the meantime
and this will cause a complete re-construc-
ton of the team. So all those who are
new arrivals and are athletically inclined
and are anxious to show their wares,
should hand in their names at once to
their respective officers. By acting prompt
ly and being able to get regular practice,
it is hoped that the M. S. P. will be able
to put winning team in the field during
the season of 1921.
The team should remember that they
do not play the game entirely alone, for
there is some eight hundred odd fans here
who are just as eager for them to win as
they are and perhaps more so, judging
from the support they have had in cheer
ing in the past.
So now the time is at hand for the old
players and the new to get together, get
your practice in your respective positions
on the diamond and in comparatively
short time, we-the fans hope to see the
locals in such competitive and defensive
form that they will be able to hold their
own with any and all outside teams who
care to battle for the supremacy of the
diamond.

MEXICAN SUGAR SUBSTITUTE

Mexican residents of San Francisco to
combat the high cost of living, especially
in regard to sugar, are importing pinoche
from Mexico. 1t is brown in color and
of rather low grade. The stuff is not con-
sidered sufficiently refined for use in tea
or coffee, but is used in cooking. Inasmuch
as the price is about third of refined
white sugar, there is considerable induce
ment to use it even if the pinoche is not
as nice as the regulation sugar. Pinoche
has been imported into Southern Califor-
MIA for some time, but only lately has it
been shipped as far north as San Fran
cisco.-E1.

sTAUNTON. Va. August 2o.-Ex-
cess taxes on bank stock amounting
to $4,000 will be promptly refunded
to Augusta county banks by the Au-
gusta board of supervisors, according
to an agreement reached between the
board and bank representatives at a
special meeting at the courthouse

chants National Bank Of Richmond
in the city of Richmond. in which the
collection of $1.15 tax on stock in
1890 was pronounced as illegal
and should lawfully have been re-
.duced to 80 cents.
On this basis q refund Of $4,000 is
now due to the banks Of Augusta

Necessity for Airplane C.rr,.r..

Recent experiments in which ex-
German ships were destroyed con-
nrmed the belief of the naval officials
that lighting ships must be accom-
panied by airplanes for offensive and
defensive purposes. While ships of a
fleet may be able to carry a few air
planes. their number would neces-
sarily be restricted by other fighting
equipment on the vessels. Airplanes
launched from battieships, after ac-
complishing their mission, must land
en- the water and be picked up by the
ships cranes. proceeding which may
cause irretrievable delay at a vital
moment. The ideal situation would
be to carry most Of the planes on a
specially designed vessel. having a
deck from which they could start and
alight. They must have such speed
and radius Of action as will permit
them to accompany the fastest scout
ing ships. Recently the general board
recommended that two airplane car
rfers be laid down as soon as pos
sfble. It is estimated their limit of
cost would be $25.00O,000 each, and
that they will take not less than
thirty months to complete. The
amount normally to be appropriated
for use during the first fiscal year in
which these vessels are building
would be $7.5o0.00o for each ship.
