Meridian Baseball
 Club Reorganized

Meridian, Miss, February 25.--(Special) The Meridian Baseball association has been reorganized and placed on a solid financial foundation, and is ready and anxious to place it's team in the Cotton States league for a fight for the 1921 pennant honors.
 Reorganization was necessary because of the resignation of President J. G. Daily and Secretary w. A. Anderton. for the reason that these two gentlemen had been elected. president andasecretary, re- spectively, of the Cotton States Baseball association. and did not think it right and proper that they should retain their offices in the local organization. The local organization as it stands now is as follows
 B. M. Feibelman. president; w. A. Hobbs, vice president; Abe Netter, sec retary; Lester Bowling, treasurer. Di- rectors, Cliff Williams, A. J. Lyon, John H. O'Neal, R. c. Malone, c. L. Hay ward and Thomas Bailey.
 The association members are much en- unused as are all Meridian fans over the prospect for organized baseball during the coming season, the first to be en- 5oyed in the city since the disbandment of the old Cotton States league several years ago.

 During the next six rounds Jackson kept pounding with lefts and rights to the body and head. Dundee did most of his work with his left in jabs and hooks to the head and face.
 In the eighth and ninth rounds Dundee outgeneraled his opponent, using right upper cut effectively and causing Jack son to miss.
 Jackson then began to score heavily and in the next six rounds hit Dundee hard blows on the head and body. Dun dee fought back with great vim and courage.
 In the final round Jackson tried for a knockout, but Dundee was fighting him toe to toe at the final bell.

 WALKER COUNTY

The Alliance Agricultural school surprised some of the followers of the cage game yesterday beating the heavy Walker county aggregation, 3l to 1s. in very interesting game. The feature of the contest was the sup port given the Alliance team by Its Ad- vocates, who journeyed to Birmingham 10 see their boys play, the greater ma jority of the rooters belonging to tho fairer sex.

Barton academy from Mobile showed under the Disque county five yesterday afternoon, 69 to IS. The foundation of this teams success is the swiftness and shiftiness of almost all of it's players and practically perfect passwork. The teamwork that this aggregation has ex- hibited is undoubtedly the best seen here since the tournament started. Disque played hard throughout and deserves credit for sticking with their clever op. ponents.

Greenville played splendid game, taking advantage of every opportunity to score and always guarding their opponents so closely that even Kamin- sky. elusive little forward of the Mont gomery boys, was unable to score more than three field goals.
 Sidney Lanier plainly had an off, day yesterday, but no credit must be taken from Greenville for its victory, for the victors certainly played a classy game.
 V. Stabler, center, played one of the best games of the tourney. running the floor we'll guarding closely and cleanly, and in addition scoring seven field goals. Captain McGowan played a fine game at guard for Greenville.
 Sidney Lanier played rather rough but not dirty game, as is evidenced by the P fouls called against the Mont gomery boys.
 Greenville was able to win despite the fact that Riley, star forWard, was out of the game with an ankle injured in Greenville's game with Ensley Thursday.
 For Sidney Lanier, Griffith was good while in the game. The Mont ome cry boys missed some easy shots that should have been made. Score:

Central High school came through it's first game yesterday unscratched, de- feating Gordo High school, 49 to 2l. in a game which never seriously threatened to result in Gordo's favor.

SPRINGVILLE HAS FOUGHT ITS WAY
 TO SEMI-FINALS

Fast games featured yesterdays play in the state high school basket ball tournament. There were few walk-aways, while few of the games were bitterly contested from start to finish. The dope was upset only twice, strangely, both times when Greenville was one of the two con- testants.
 Results of yesterdays games follow;

 After defeating Sidney Lanier in one of the best games of the day, Green villo apparently became handicapped by too many injuries, for they lost out to Springville. The latter team played splendid game against their oppon- ents and deserved to win, although the absence of Riley from forward and the bad injury to V. Stabler, star center, were undoubtedly prime factors in Greenville's defeat.
 WIN TWO GAMES
 Both Central and Springville played and won two games yesterday. Both have breezed along through the tour ney in easy fashion, neither having been forced to the limit yet.
 Yesterdays pairings brought to- gether two local teams for the first time. Central and Simpson met last night. Ensley. the only other local entry in the meet, was eliminated in its first game with Greenville. Simpson was eliminated only after it had won two games, and had displayed ability to cope with the best of 'em and make good showing each time. Although Central won decisively last night, 1t did not have . walk-away.
 Barton academy and Alliance won their games and will meet in the semi finals today. Belonging to the lower bracket these two teams have played only two games, while the upper bracket teams left have played three games each.
