Bob Rowe Is Hard Luck Player With
 Panther Athletes
nx M E BAKER

p.d fortuna came to the Birrning- ham, Southern Partners with vlm III the first game of their Mlssisslppl campaign, which was played Mohoay afternoon. In addition to losing tne game by to score, the Pahehe.S fielder Bob Rowe, when he received broken leg sliding into home.
 Rowe was one of the stars of last season, his timely hitting aiding ma terially in winning many ball games last year. Much was expected or nm this year, and he was expected to be- come one of the Panthers' mainstays when the unfortunate accident oc- cured Monday afternoon.
 Rowe is known among the students of Sunshine Slopes, as the original tard luck man in Panther athletics. In the fall of 1919 he received frac- tured knee in a football game with Marion Military institute, which forced him to remain out of the game for the rest of the season. Last fall he started the Partners first gridiron game of the season at right end. Two minutes after the game had begun, Rowe received broken collarbone when struck by the weight of the enemy's interference. This injury kept him out of the game for the rest of the football season of 1920, the collar bone. having to be reset. And now, to cap the climax, Rowe receives a broken leg in the third game of the 1921 baseball season.
 No details have been received as to how the accident occurred. The prob ability is that his spikes caught in the home plate as he slid, causing the bone to snap.
 Joe Stewart was also unable to play a e-aiusf G M Monday due. to a sudden attack of sickness. His ab- sence from the lineup and the loss of Rowe during the game reduced con- siderably the strength of the Panther team. Stewart has been doing fine work thus far. his playing featuring the Marion series. Whether he will be able to play in the other games In the campaign is not known.
 Tom Sutter and R. A. Baker received orders to join the team at once, and both left Monday night for Starkville. Sutter will play in the outfieldsin place of Rowe. while Baker win play second base in case Stewart continues i'll.
 Aubrey Miller twirled the game Monday afternoon, and did well in holding the strong A. x M. aggrega- ton to a to 2 score. when it is con sidered that two of the Panthers best men were out of the lineup.
 Following yesterdays game with A & M.. the Panthers entrained for Jackson, Miss. where they will play Mtllsaps college today and tomorrow Friday and Saturday the Panthers meet Mississippi college in a duo oi games at Clinton, after which they will return to the Magic City. unless they decide to, stop by. Marion for a series of games with Marion Military institute.

ALABAMA HOLDS BRAVES TO CLOSE
 SCORE OF 4 TO 0

University, April 5.-tSpecial) )-The University of Alabama tossers held the Boston National league team to score of to on Denny field this afteTnoon. Only in the sixth inning, when the Grim son fielding become a little loose were the major leaguers able to score at all, they making all four runs in this inning
 Both pitchers gave an exhibition of wonderful twirling. but Sam Hinton, Bernier's southpaw twirier, deserves spe- ciai credit for holding the seasoned Bos- ton sluggers to eight hits. He pitched the whole game in first-class style and did not walk man. The Braves used their veteran pitcher, Oeschger, who pitched the whole of a 26-inning game last season against Brooklyn.
 Bernier used Pitts for the first time on first base, and he showed up well, both in the field and at the bat. Brown in the left/f field, did some sensational work. while Luke Sewell and stephen son nlaved their usual spectacular game. Twice it seemed that the col legians would be able to score but the quick efficient work of the Boston Iieiu- CTS cut off their chances. In the siXtn inning Pitts was left on third. Rosen- field, new centerfielder, got two pretty hits out of three chances.
 The big leaguers used their HTS, slras men against the Alabamians. South- worth. Nixon and Archdeacon Tn tne outfield were at their best, Wni.e Holke was in the limelght at the pat getting three heavy hits out or iour times at the bat.
 The Alabama fans were delighted at the splendid showing made by the cor ieee youngsters against such an expe- rienced bunch of veterans as they were pitted against.
