COUNTY LEAGUE is
LOOKING FOR BIG
SEASON THIS YEAR
Six Teams Enter Jefferson
County Circuit-Rosters
Are Turned In

Local teams entered in the jefferson
County High School Baseball league are
preparing for banner season this year.
With the opening of the leagues season
only a short while off, preparations are
fast being made by each team for its
opening game.
The number of clubs comprising the
circuit has been swelled to six by the
entrance of ShadeS-Cahaba High school
into the league. This school is putting
out one of its first baseball teams and.
of course, is not expected to do much
this season.
Central High seems to have fairly
well-balanced aggregation that will bear
watching, The Crimsons outfield looks
good, while the battery staff seems up
to standard. The infield at present is an
unknown quantity
jefferson County, while losing such a
star as Keith, is expected to come
through and be one of the pennant con-
tenders this year. The Wildcats seem to
have a good pitching staff, fine in
field a week outfield and fair back
stopping department
Ensley's prospects seem bright, with
good catchers, fair pitchers, great IN
field and promising outfied. Simp-
sons prospects can be best judged by the
uulOT dnLHGIS VlClUly ONCl AiitCA ~itN- -
All-Stars, fairly strong team, yester-
day.
Bessemer probably will show up better
this year than expected The Tigers fin
ished last in 1920. Bessemer seems TO
have good catchers, fair pitchers, great
infeld, but only fair outfield.

ception of the Shades-Cahaba outfit.s
