HOOKED FOR CARDS
Nineteen Year -0Id Twirler Fan.
ned 1872 Batsmen In Texas
Last Season.

ST. LOUIS. Feb. 7.SThat the cardi-
nails have signed the real strike -out
king OF baseball Is apparent from the
1920 record OF Arthur Riviere, the
young twirler OF the University of
Texas. who will report for trial with
the Cardinals next month.
Besides striking out an average Of
thirteen batters per game, Riviere
also has four no-hit games to his
credit. AS a member OF the Bay City,
Tex, team he participated In twenty
six games last season, winning eight
cen, losing six, and tieing two. One
OF his defeats was q no-hit game.
when his team failed to make a run
for him.
While Riviere Is still a a.student at
the University OF Texas, he turned
professional last spring. and played
with the Bay City Independents. This
team played In group OF clubs
financed by oil men In that region of
Texas.
SOUGHT ny MAJOR CLUBS.
They paid good salaries to players
and the clubs had the reputat ton OF
being as strong. IL not better, than
many OF the clubs OF the Texas
League. For that reason Riviere's
record Is more impressive than IL II
had been made with an independent
organization.
He was the talk of Texas baseball
circles. He created much the same
impression as George Sisler. the
Browns star, when the famous irst
| baseman was a member OF the Uni
versity OF Michigan team. While few
persons had seen Sisler play as a
collegian. his fame spread fast.
As a result OF this fame the New
York Yankees. Chicago White Sox.
Detroit Tigers and Pittsburgh Pirates
were bidders against the Cardinals
for Riviere's services, but Scout Char
ley Barrett was successful in signing
him. Every club in the Texas League.
too. made an effort to snare the
young right-hander.
The following facts are cleaned
| from Riviere's record:
In 30 innings he struck out 332
batsmen. an average of thirteen per
nine Inning game.
In the same number OF innings he
allowed eighty hits and forty-two
runs.
His victories included five shut-outs.
| Four no-hit, four one-hi two two
hit, four three-hit, and six four-hit
games are included in his perform
ances.
BEATEN IN NO-HIT GAME.
| After losing a no-hit game to the
Brenham team. Riviere came back on
his next turn and defeated wharton
In a no-hit performance. On his next
out he held the Lockhart team hit
less for eight innings.
For the 2l8 innings. Riviere per-
mitted an average of 3.24 hits per
game and LII runs per game.
Because of Riviere's sensational
record he will be closely watched by
Manager Hickey during the training g
| period and given special INSTRUCTION
in the hope that he will be able to
strengthen the twirliug corps. He IL

He has caused n great sensation and

Macon Notes

Last Friday evening the Macon High
school dismissed early. The purpose
was to secure new members and to
hunt up those that had dropped school
studing. The result was that Monday
morning about six new members came
and still more are expected to attend
soon. There was one family who said
they would send their children if some
cloths were given them, as they had
not even a change of cloths. Upon
notification of this fact the public soon
contribute enough for them.
The fifth teacher. Mrs. Lucille Muir
ply, was added to the Macon High
school faculty last week.
There have been rains here the last
few days which have greatly benefit
the corn crops as well as other crops
One of the largest corn cropsisin in pros
pect as has been here in some time.
