FINAL PLANS FOR
 THE CITY LEAGUE
 SEASON ARE MADE

At meeting which had 100 per cent attendance, the final plans for the cur rent season of the Birmingham City league were formed. Every team listed in the schedule had representative pres ent and came through with all of it's contracts made out The exceptional manner in which the managers have re- sponded to the requests of the president glves promise of very harmonious and successful season.
 Prospects are very promising for the playing of two of the opening games ot the season at Redwood park. The teams which will clash, provided arrangements are made for the use of the field, are as FOLLOWS: Stockham vs. East Birmingham, and Sayreton vs. Moore & Handley. II these games are played they will be in the form of double-header for which a nominal fee will be charged as admis- sion, Every effort will be made to hold the opening at Redwood, and if the plans materialize, a large crowd is ex- pected to witness the opening games
 Much discussion arose as to the eligj- bility Of certain players who are said to have received remuneration for playing baseball last season. Several cases were settled last night, while others will be finished and decided by the president be- fore Saturday afternoon, when the sea- son starts. With the exception of a iit- tie heated discussion as to the eligibility cases, the meeting was very harmonious throughout. The scorers were impressed of the necessity of turning in the box scores of every game, and it is hoped that the official scorekeepers will do everything possible to make the City league have a successful season.

CITES CANADA AND
 U. s. AS EXAMPLE
Other Nations Might Emulate It With Profit, President
 Harding Declares
By Associated Press

Washington, April 25.-The example of Canada and the United States dwell ing alongside one another without fortifcation for 100 years was pointed to as one other nations might emulate by President Harding in an address at an Odd Fellows meeting here tonight in celebration of the one hundred and second anniversary of the order.
 Such concord might be possible among other nations, the President said, If they possessed the same un- derstandlng and singleness of purpose
 to forward the cause of human kind" The address was delivered after Jo- seph Oliver of Toronto, Ont. grand sire of the order, had expressed the hope that Canada and the United States might for all time continue in the sama amicable relations.
 SThe President, in expressing the pleasure with which he said. "an American of the United States" heard such words, from an American who halls from Canada" declared that after all, it little matters what flag we owe our allegiance to on the North American continent"
 T like. above all else," he continued, the example of Canada and the United States dwelling throughout the past century in peace and under the most amicable relations with a single pur- pose, to forward the cause of human kind"

Taking advantage of every miscue by their opponents and playing steady game the Jefferson County Wildcats defeated the Shades-Cahaba Mountaineers yesterday aft erDoon by 2 to score. Errors were re- sponsible for the Countymens win Acton pitching splendid ball all the way through He struck out Il men in the eight innings which were played, rain interfering with the ninth inning.
 Jernigan was easily the star for the win ners, the hefty first baseInan hammering out single, two -bagger and home run in four times at bat.

JUNIOR PAINTERS.
 STAGE COMEBACK. TO BEAT BESSEMER.

Fighting with their backs to the wall, the Simpson Junior Panthers overcame four run lead acquired in the first inning and defeated Bessemer in a very spectacular game by to score. The contest started out like a runaway for the Tigers, who got four counters the first time at bat, but thereafter Norwood had the jungle beasts under control Pretty fielding featured the game, although the winners contributed several errors to that unpopular column.
 Englebert Hamilton and Aartsfield were the only ones to get two hits the first men toned hammering out a triple for the only extra base bingle. The latter shone also through his excellent fielding, snagging two pretty catches. Caldwell brought in the tying and winning runs in the sixth on a single. Norwood struck out nine men, al- lowing only six hits. Errors were respon- -Bible for most of Bessemer's runs
 Hawkins pitched excellent ball until the sixth, when his hand which had been pre- viously injured began to pain him and he was forced to retire. Sheridan went in with out sufficient warming up but after steady ing down was invincible Bailey played well at third while Parsons made a pretty catch in left, Score:

Fulghum, Auburn's
 Star Infielder, Is Signed by Mackmen

Greenville, S. C., April 26.-(SpeciaL) Scout Thomas L. Turner of the Phila- delphia Athletics, who has been trail- ing a number of southern college teams during the past few weeks, an- nounced here today that James Full ghum, shortstop of the Auburn college team, had accepted terms with the Philadelphia club.
 Fulghum, who is now hitting above the 400 mark, will report May IS, after the series between Auburn and the University of Georgia
 Scout Turner followed the Auburn team for number of days, and each day his impression of the Auburn shortstop was more favorable, it was stated. Detroit, Cleveland and the Yankees were also after the Auburn shortstop, but through the influence of Coach Donahue he was induced to ac- cept terms with the Athletics.
 The Alabama lad was offered con- tract when Auburn played here several days ago, but it was not until today that Scout Turner announced Full ghum's acceptance of terms.
 q consider Fulghum a better fielder than either Swell or Stephenson of the Indians Turner said, land believe he will hit equally as well. He will prob ably be used at third base alongside of Galloway who went from a South Carolina college"
 Fulghum is a junior at Auburn; is 5 feet 10 inches tall, and weights 165 pounds. He is considered by Turner to be the most promising man in southern college baseball today.

 Georgia Counties
By Associated Press

Atlanta, April 26.-Federal agents con- tinued their inquiry today into reports that negroes had been held in peonage and at least three killed on a south Georgia plantation, but no reports on the situation had been made public here to- night.

TAX LEAGUERS MAY START SOMETH State Convention Will Be Held in Montgomery
 Today

Montgomery, April 26.-(SpeciaL) )-Be- cause of the great advertising campaign which has been made in some sections, Montgomery is looking forward to the meeting Wednesday of the Alabama Tax payers league, which was organized in Birmingham last month to insist upon a reyaluation of property for this year, and, failing in this, to make a campaign next year for the election of a gover- nor and legislature which will change the tax laws. One force has been quite ac- tice in recent days in advertising the campaign, while another has discount ed it
 If the proponents stories are correct, the meeting will be an important one. lf the opponents version is accepted, the propaganda has had little effect and the meeting will represent only 10 per cent or less of tn etaxpayers. The largest dele gations are expected from Madison and Talladega counties. where the agitation started. Dallas also is expected to be well represented as there has been a skeleton organization against the pres ent tax system since business men of that county tested the validity of the income tax last year. Coffee county is also ex- agitation and the theft of the tax records from the offices of the tax assessor and collector and the arrest of three persons on charges of stealing the records.
 Many persons see some political signifi- canoe in the meeting and believe those back of it are laying their plans for par ticipation in the gubernatorial campaign in support of the man whom the leaders indorse.

BULLDOGS TO MEET
 THE MILLSAPS NINE ON CAMPUS TODAY
By HARwELL ALLEN

If MT. Horton's weather schedule doesn't call for rain today, the How ard College Bulldogs will take their little baseball game which. ought to be worth seeing, considering that the Bulldogs are unusually anxious to win another game and that the Mill against the Howardites on account of the defeat that the Bulldogs handed them in football last Thanksgiving day.
 Howard has been working harder since the two stars of the aggrega- ton, namely Head and Acton, left for professional baseball. Gaylord has not only learned to cover third base a la Acton but his hitting is also inn proving daily and it seems as though he is going to surpass the dreams of his most optimostic friends in guard ing the hot corner. One thing that Gaylord has that is even better than that of his predecessor is a begging arm. Dan has just about the best arm on the Howard team when it comes to cutting loose a peg.
 Behind the bat, Othar Afford is
 
 though he is not the hitter that Head was, he is good catcher and his much reputed chin music is also help ing to keep up team spirit.
 Kirk Howell will probably be at first base today. Kirk played at this position when the Bulldogs met and defeated the State Normal team from Jackson, and while the place was new to him and he did not perform like a veteran, he played consistent ball.
 Shortstop is one position that is very uncertain as to who will fill it. Drake has been playing at this place most of the season, but Red Dean has been working hard for the place also. Whenever he has had a chance he mas shown so much stuff that it ia now a toss-up as to which will re- ceive the call.
 Bud King will probably start to- days game. The lineup probably will be as follows: King, pitcher: Afford, catcher; Howell, first base; McLane,> second base; Drake or Dean. shortstop; Gaylord, third base; shel- ton, left field; Manasco, center field; Newman, right field

Panthers Will Meet
 Millsaps Nine Here
By M. ID. BAKER

With their disastrous Mississippi campaign now a relic of the past, the Birmingham Southern Partners are working hard for their games with Millsaps college Friday and Saturday, which are to be played upon Munger field. Millsaps defeated the Panthers in duo of games during their inva- sion of the Delta State and the latter are hankering for revenge, the afore- said revenge, however, being easier to banker for than to get.
 From reports received here the Mis- sissippians won before largely through Panther errors and the poor support accorded their boxmen. With two weeks of hard practice behind them, this fault of the Partners should have been largely corrected, and Friday and Saturday should reveal some nifty baseball,
 Miller Or Wheeler will probably be in the box for the Panthers, and either of these boys should twirl a nifty brand of ball Both pitched well dur ing the Mississippi campaign. and with better support should have won more games than they did. Greek Griffin
 
 lected to do mound duty. This boys playing has been one of the bright spcts of the Panther team thus far
 His homer, sending in three runs ahead of him, was responsible for the Panthers' win over Mississippi college which had previously tied the Atlanta Southern Association team. His hit ting has also been very noticeable in practically all the other games the Partners have played.
 Ma" Green will be seen at the rorrid corner. Green. has been playing great ball this season, and is expected to star in most of the seasons remaining contests. He hit home run against Mississippi A. and NJ. and his hitting has featured most of the other games.
 Propst continued his good hitting during the Mississippi games, and will probably start Fridays game at some position. Altogether. the Partners should be able to put a strong. team in the field Friday, and one that barrinf; errors should turn in victory over the Millsaps aggregation.
