WHITE TURNS BACK
 RIDDLES, WINS 60

Philadelphia, April 13.-Hendrix won Tuesdays game from Henderson Brown, to 0. White did the pitch ing for the visitors and allowed but two hits.
 The Bulldogs sewed up the game in the first inning when they tore into Jacobs for five scores before he was yanked in favor of Mcdonald. After Mcdonald started, the Hendrix bat teries were baffled, and it was a pretty pitching duel for the eight re- maining innings.
 The game was rather slow, but the rival first sackers, Rowland for Hen- derson and Whaley for the Bulldogs, played stellar ball, both in fielding and hitting. Stinnett starred in the outfield for Henderson, Newton of Hendrix was the hitting star getting four bingles out of five times at bat. One was tripple to the center field fence.
 Hendrix made five runs in the opening frame when Nelson, first up, doubled down the right field foul line. Moore and Williams were safe on infield errors, filling the bases. Newton singled, scoring Nelson and Moore. There were no more hits, but smashing the ball stiffly to the in- field by the Hendrix batsmen re- suited in miX-up with the bases full and Williams, Newton and White scored before the side was retired. The scoring was halted by Mcdonald, who went to the mound from first base, and until the ninth inning no more runs were made.
 In the ninth Newton beat out an in- field hit, stole second, went to third on Moore's sacrifice bunt and scored in Whaley's single to center

MAY TRY TO ENJOIN
 GAS TAX COLLECTION

Little Rock, April 13.-Representa- tives of number of oil companies held conference with Governor Me Rae and Attorney-General Utley last night, endeavoring to reach an agree ment as to the provisions of the re- cent legislative act imposing a tax Of one cent per gallon on gasoline.
 The act, is said, is subject to sever al constructions and nothing definite was accomplished at the conference.
 It was reliably stated that the oil companies will bring suit to enjoin the collection of the tax. It is esti- mated that the tax will bring about $350,000 to the state annually if held to be valid.

ANDERSON HANDS
 ACC|ES SHUT OUT
TEACHERS PLAY SNAPPy
Three Up, Three Down Tune "Dud' Played for Nine Innings-Tan-
 ner Develops Class.

The Arkansas State Normal School Bears yesterday afternoon took the final game of the series from the Russellville Aggies, to 0, on the Nor nal field in what was perhaps the most sensational game ever seen here. "Bud' Anderson, Coach Dan Estes selection, had everything desired on the ball and with the type of support given him by his teammates deserved the shutout handed the Aggies.
 Few and far between are the games these days when a team gets six men to first base, and yet there are no men left on bases, and they do not score run. Anderson allowed four hits, walked one man, and one runner was safe at first on an error, but nevertheless, only 27 men faced him in the nine innings. This simply means that the first three men up each inning made outs. The six who reached first during the game were either caught in double plays or picked off the bases.
 While the Normal infield was giv- ing alright support, the outfield was also having a big day. Two double plays were executed by the outfield. In the third inning, Neal raced in on a line drive by Ramsey, made des- perate catch and doubled Pearson off first base. Lynch, however, did even better in the sixth when he speared Hills line drive to left field that look ed good for two bases, and made a perfect peg across the diamond to first base, doubling Ramsey.
 The Bears made their only run in the first inning after Hammer and Henderson had flied out. Fair singled to left field, and stole second. Bran nan, who is developing into one of the classlest first basemen seen on a col lege nine here this season, lined one to center field, Fair scoring with the lone run It is the concensus of opin lon among fans who have witnessed the games the Bears have had the past two weeks that Brannan will be the pick for the all-state first base position this year. He is fast, fields above the average and is hitting over 300 and his hits come when they are needed the most.

PICKS GIANTS TO COP
 N. L. PENNANT HONORS
By Herbert l.. Farrell,

New York, April 13.-Sinces1913 when lawn J. McGraw copped his third pennant in row, no National League manager has headed a winner | twice consecutively.
 1 Uncle Wilbert Robinson can do g i lot of things with ball players, but there is not enough around his Brook lyn Club to justify the belief that he will break the precedent.
 True, he has the same club. man for man, excepting Rube Marquard that won the 1920 honors, but while he has stood pat on his team, other managers have been adding strength during the off season.
 Picking winners on the diamond is just about as dependable as picking them on the turf-a hit once in a while is good average The same Uncle Wilbert Robinson probably was thinking of this recently when he said: "You go ahead and dope out the pennant race, I prefer to play it.'
 However, in fifty per cent of the cases, baseball runs true to form. Last year the National League race went against the dope but the Amer ican league followed it almost to a line.
 The National League can be divid- ed into two groups-contender and non-contenders. Only three clubs at thlS early date appear to be in the first class-Brooklyn, New York and Pittsburgh. Of that trio New York looks to be best with the Pirates sec ond and the Robins third. The Giants ought to win the pennant. If Goldie Rapp makes good for the infield and McGraw is able to land more re- liable centerfielder than Benny Kauff or King, he ought to walk away with the pennant.

BLACKFORK.

Sunday school was we'll attended Sunday. The preacher came, but on account of the weather being so cold. ne dld not preach, and they will not allow anyone to preach in the school house. l think it would be a good plan to lay that rule aside, for there never was a place that needed mes sages from God as badly as this place does. The farmers union have thei, meetings in the schoolhouse, and I suppose they are trying to plan a way for us to have more money, a better price for our farm products, that which we need, but we could not take anything with Us when we leave this world, and think it looks like the people are not taking the second thought or they would let the man of God deliver his message in the school house.

FOCH TO SEE NAPOLEON
 ANNIVERSARY CEREMONY

= Paris, April 13.1-On May 5, with
 Fance's celebfation of the hundredth
 (Xessary of the death of Napoleon,
 ,,shal Foch will be given little fore -.ste of the nice things that France will do in his honor when he is safely dead as Napoleon.
 There is nothing that France likes to do better, that she does nicer than pulling off honors on behalf of her greet military heroes. Generally speaking, France would just as soon honor live military chief as a dead one, only experience has taught her that 1t is much better to stick to the latter.
 Experience has taught France that her celebrations in honor of live mili- tary chiefs are so intoxicating that they are liable to go to the head of said military chief, and cause him to want to take over the whole show.
 So Marshal Foch will participate in the big celebration of May 5 with the quiet and sure consciousness that as soon as he has been dead as long as Napoleon, France won't fail to over- look any little occasion like his birth day or anniversary of this death.
 While the real celebration of Ma roleon's death will take place on May 4 and 5, preliminary recognition of the event is already under way. At Malmaison, Fontainbleau, Sewers and Campeigne, museums and eXpositions of relics of Napoleon have been opened.
 In the meantime, excursions are be- ing organize to the Island of Elba, to the Napoleonic battlefields of France to Waterloo and if possible also to those of the Rhine.
 The international congress will also be held, to which all the learned socie- ties of the world are asked to send delegates for the purpose of studying the Napoleon code and other works of the great French general and statesmen.
 On May 4 a religious ceremony will be held at Notre Dame in Paris, with Cardinal Dubois present and at which Abbe Hennoque, who during the world war won eleven citations, will deliver the oration of Napoleon.
 On May great military cere- mony will take place at the Arch of Triumph at which survivors of the Franco-P Prussian campaigns and the poilus of Foch will participate. Fi- nally, in the afternoon another cere- mony will take place at the Hotel des Invalides, winch Napoleon constructed for his disabled soldiers, at which Mar shal Foch will make the principal ad- dress.
 In the evening gala performances will be given at all the theatres of Paris, while the boulevards will be turned over to merrymakers until they themselves are ready to quit.
