A bitter feeling against the activities
of the State Troopers in enforcing the
Mullen Gage prohibition laws is de-
veloping througnot1 the northern part
of the State, according to reports from
Plattsburg and other border towns.
A few nights ago two troopers. who
were checking up automobiles coming
over the border at Champlain. clashed
with a kissing crowd of villagers and
were forced to get reenforcements to
prevent a riot.
In the melee Chief of Police Twom-
bley arrested one Of the troopers on
the charge that he was exceeding his
powers. With the appearance of ten
other troopers the chief in turn was
arrested. The entire border section is
all astir over this and other acts of
the State police.
Recontly at Amsterdam troopers
wern Surrounded by hostile mob and
one of them was hit in the back with
a brick astee the raiding of several
saloons In which a quantity of liquor
was seized Other troopers had to be
called upon in order to get the seized
liquor away.
Il know that there is a strong feeling
against the troopers along the border"
said Major Chandler. superintendent of
the State police. "but it is only among
the lower and criminal element that is
making money out of the Illicit dealing
In intoxicating liquors.
Major Chandler estimates that since
his troopers began the enforcement of
prohibition they have seized $1,00O.00O
worth Of bottled liquor and wine. This
does not include moonshine whiskey,
home brew beer. hard cider. red wine,
raisin Jack and other home made
beverages. vast quantities of which have
been found by the troopers The reports
of the 1900 or more raids they have
made indicates that the central and

Are Many Former Southern Leaguers in Lineup of
 Louisville Team
By MARVIN MCARTHY

After day of watching others play the national game, the Barons, no doubt, will jump into their unies with alacrity this afternoon, eager for the fray. Their opponents will be no other than the Louisville Colonels, something of a sister team to the Barons, so regularly do the two teams meet each year.
 Whether the Barons learned any thing from gracing the grandstand and watching the Yankees and Dodgers see what they could do to the grand old game remains to be seen. If Dutch Bernsen, Clarke and some of the other Baronial sluggers followed in MT. Babe Ruins footsteps of yesterday it is probable that the grand razz would be forthcoming from the grandstand However, an off day is something that cans be avoided, and the only regret that local bugs should have is that Babes bad day hit him while in Bir- mingham.
 DOPE ON COLONELS
 The Colonels are coming to Birming- ham this morning with whole raft or former Southern leaguers.
 Beginning at the top of the Col onels' lineup. we find the following facts:
 Joe Schooner. who used to infield for the Mobile Bears. is playing at third base.
 Ben Tincup, the same duck who pitched that memorable no-hit, no-run. no-reach game in the Southern a couple Of years ago, is playing in left field. Ben is regularly pitcher, but his heavy batting average, we'll over 300, has swayed him toward the out field and the regular lineup
 Ellis, the same old Al, is playing in right field. Al is the same hammer man as of old, who used to strike ter TOT to hearts of Dixie pitchers when he was cavorting with the Barons. Al was sold to Louisville about the mid dle of last season. reporting this spring. He seems to have made good with the Colonels, as ne mas a regular berth in the outfield.
 Ballinger, at shortstop, is the young ster who played with Nashville last

Of the three regulars. Whitted hits right handed. Carey either right or left handed, and Bigbee hits left handed. All of them bat normally close to 300. They are by far the best trio on the sacks of any outfielding set in the league. In the field Carey may be said to excel slightly such ball hawks as Myers of Brooklyn and Roush of Cincinnati. No other center gardeners afford competition. Bigbee has only Max Flack as competitor in right, while Whitted's strongest rivals are Burns. New York; Wheat, Brooklyn; Southworth. Boston, and Duncan, Cincinnati.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-04-05

close together. All of them are two man outfields and the position of each is largely determined by the rating of the third gardener. Eddie Roush and Pat Duncan, assisted by Charlie See, who batted 1905 last season on the demoralized Reds and accepted his few chances in the field without an error, is given the call over the champion Brooklyn duo, Zach Wheat and Hy Myers, with Tom Griffith in right when a right-handed pitcher opposes Brooklyn, and Bernie Neis, a promis- ing kid instead of Griffith when left handler works.

year. "Pel," as Ballinger is called, was keystoner with the Vols in 1920.
 Louisville has capable corps of pitchers, consisting of the following men: Wright, Estelle, Saunders. Long, Acosta, Koob, Decatur. Miller, Dabney and Whitney.
 BARONS IN SHAPE
 The Barons are, in excellent shape for the game today. The annual spring epidemic of sore arms has dealt lightly with the Baronial hurling corps, and it is lively that Moley's ma . chine will be well fortified in this de- partment in the series with the Col onels.- Just which Baron moundsman will start the game today has not been announced yet, and any one of the half a dozen varsity prospects might occupy the mound when the game is called at o'clock this afternoon.
 Two games will be played with the Colonels, today and tomorrow. Billy McNamara, who will umpire on the regular Baron staff this year, will be arbiter during the series with the Col onels.

ED LEWIS DEFENDS
 TITLE IN BATTLE WITH JOHN PESEK
NebraSkan Forces Champion to Limit, But the Veteran
 "StrangIer" Wins

New York, April 4.-Ed (strangler) Lewis of San Jose. Cal. worlds heavy weight catch h-as-catch-can wrestling champion, tonight threw John Pesek of Ravenna, Neb., with bar and armlock after wrestling l hour, 34 minutes and g. seconds.
 The side chancery or headlock hold was barred, and at times the champion seemed to be at a loss without the use of it.
 It was announced that Lewis will meet Stanislaus Zbyszko of Poland in finish match near the end of this month, the net proceeds of the contest going to the suffering poor of Ireland.
 Pesek was the aggressor for the bet ter part of. the bout, but the super strength of Lewis, who weighed 2S2 pounds to the challengers 195, finally made itself felt. Lewis received more punishment than in any of his previous contests here.
 Displaying strength and cleverness Pesek kept after Lewis at the start of the bout and in nine minutes brought Lewis down with double wristiock, a painful hold. The Nebraskan resorted to his hold frequently, as the titleholder seemingly was unable to avoid it, even when he was in back or on top of the challenger.
 On one occasion he used the hold to throw Lewis over his head, almost breaking the champions arm.
 When underneath, Pesek often used strength to lift Lewis with crotch and armhold and once threw him heavily in this manner
 He also obtained a body scissors and armlock, but the champion worked out of it. At the half-hour mark Pesek got toehold that made Lewis sauirm with pain
 Lewis centered his efforts on a bar hold to bring back his opponents arm for a hammerlock, which eventually aided him in getting the winning hold, after Peseks dexterity had enabled him to escape from numerous other dan gerous situations. The match was de- void of rough work, although Referee George Botsner cautioned Pesek once for attempting the side chancery.

ATHLETIC CLUB OFFICIALS have definitely closed with Bill Nance of New Orleans for a bout with Jack Brady at the E. A. C. on April II, completing tho double wind-up affair planned for that date. As affairs now stand. Nance meets Brady and Lou Gomez meets Tim o'Dowd, both bouts scheduled for 10 rounds.
 Bill Nance has been in the Magic City some time, working out at the Boys club with Dave Evans and Eddie Han Ion. Both these veteran ringmen state that he is a wonder with his mitts, not so much from scientific standpoint. but from an angle of actual scrapping and ability to hold his own in an affair of flying mitts
 Nance has a good record behind him; at least. it sounds we'll. The names on his record. which follows in part are hardly more than just names to local bugs, but the results of his bouts would indicate that he knows something about scrapping. The record follows:
 Tom Hiene draw, 10 rounds.
 Bert Carrie, won, 10 rounds.

Bill Southworth is the star of the Braves outfield, though he does not crash the ball as hard as his colleague in right, Nicholson. who with South worth, came to the Braves from Pitts burg in exchange for Maranville. John l.. Sullivan, a right-handed youngster, who hit high last var, and Ray Powell, left handler, a weak hitter, will com pete for the centerfield position. Powell makes up for his light hitting by his speed and sure fielding. Walton Cruise and Edwin Eayrs. left handlers. who can both hit and field fairly well. and Albert Nixon, an aged right handed recruit from Texas. are all candidates for positions.

The position of the Cubs is a parallel of their Southside rivals in the Ameri- can league as far as the outfield is concerned. One player of high class, Max Flack.. will work in right field, and class A player, George Maisel, highly recommended, will fill left, while the centerfield job will be the snbjectsof contest between twombly, Friberg and Barber. There is much to be desired from all three, but under the tutelage of Manager Evers they will develop rapidly. Flack, Barber and Twombly bat left handed, and Friberg, right handed.

If George Burns in left and Ross Young in right of the Giants had more experienced man between them rather than a Texas league recruit. they would have taken second place among the league outfielders. For seven years Burns has been considered the all-round starsin left, but last year his hitting fell off about 10 per cent and his baserunning record more than that. Young is always battling for the hitting leadership of the league; he is not however, so fast as Burns nor so good a fielder. In center New York will try Brown. a hard hitting. right-handed recruit from the Texas league. It is not expected that Kauff will be with the team again, and Spencer and King lack the necessary class

If the Phillies have nothing else, they. at least. have a quartet of out fieldefs who can hit. Fred Williams, left-handed hitter. and Irish" Meusel. right handler. are both fast on the bases and were among the good run getters of the league. Stengel, veteran, and nearly through, and Lebourveau will probably divide the rightfield job. Stengels is the better hitter and no worse fielder than his youthful rival.
