OUR AMERICAN
GIANTS ARE
HERE SUNDAY

CRUDE Foster and his baseball
charges will be ON dress parade this
Sunday at their home park, and the
Rogers Park baseball team, one of the
strongest aggregations around these
parts, have been picked to parade with
the dark champs and incidentally meas.
ure wares. Lest We forget, this is the
same team that put it on the ehestv
Fosterites last season, and ii was for
n couple of games As this game was
booked last year, it no doubt is TO give
the South State Street athletes
chance to either catch up on last sea
son 3 score or suffer a blottcr on a
great record that has them the best in
this broad land in their particular class.
DeMoss is heading a cripple bunch Of
pastimers right now, but declares that
he has enough men in condition to
down the North Side Irish, and plans
to trot out Ironman Tom johnson to
shoot at the enemy, he being Il mighty
tough pitcher to beat right now, and
then the lieutenant does not need warm
breezes in order to function smoothly.
The Rogers Parks are all primed for
the fray, having already this spring
downed the strong University of Chi
cago squad, they come prepared to take
the Americans to fall. Big Erickson,
~ nor nSual will he behind fine mask
for the whites, and he knows the weak
aud strong points of colored players
batting just about rs well as any one,
unless it be HRubep or DeMoss. If
Dixon's leg will permit, he will catch,
otherwise Brown or the new recruit
receiver may be behind the bat. The
game is called at $3.50 p. m, and will
be at American Giants Park.

THE FORMIDABLE
ST. LOUIS GIANTS
Charleston Completes Powerful Out
field and Others Make the Mound
citys Look Like Pennant
Contenders.
BY John ]. Eschbacher.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, April l2.-The ST..
Louis Giants will have club this sea
son that will be the equal of any nine
in the newly formed National Colored
League of Baseball Clubs. In the two
previous years the Giants We're always
lacking strength in some department
which made the team work of the club
more or less a joke. This year this
lack of material will be conspicous by
its absence, as Manager Mills has boil
stored the team with four new infeld
candidates. First base will he taken
care Of BY McAdoo, unless the recruit,
Ewell Thomas, should make the grade.
Reports from the Giants training quar-
tiers show that this new aspirant for
first base duties is making a great hit
with the fans in the South. At second
Mills is showing Dell Clarke good
looking fielder and Joe Hewitt at short,
will delight the Giant fans this year
with his usual brand of snappy fielding
and hitting. Third base is still in the
problem class, with Munion making the
best bid for the hot corner. In the
Outfeld, Oscar Charleston, who will
romp in the center garden, will add
much to the Giant outer garden defense,
as he covers acres of territory and
helps out the men working with him
~ Htg aa1ubiyafr nd 4 ~ In
Blackwell, who is booked rs the regular
right garden guard, will show in left
in the early part of the season in place
Of Dudley, who will be late in reporting
on account of having to finish up his
studies in dentistry. With Dudley miss
ing Brooks will be played in right.
The catching department will be well
manned this season. kennard will han
die the bulk of the work with sam
Bennett and Hannah, formerly of the
Nashville Giants, ready to take up the
pad and mask should an injury befall
the hardworking Dan. On the hill the
Giants have three tried stars in Fin.
ncr, Drake and Carr, while RiX, left
handler, is expected to deliver the goods
as the fourth man of the staff. An old
saving in baseball has il that a team
is as strong as its substitutes, and in
this matter the Giants will have moth
ing to worry about, rs Brooks and Holt
are both capable men, while Joe Hewitt
can play any of the infcld positions
and get away with it. Summing the
matter up the outlook for the coming
summer is to say the least, roseate, and
clubs who visit Giant Park this sum
mer will get a battle in every contest.

not lost n game since he joined Foster S

that went through the hard winter cam
paign without a setback or loss of form.
Catcher Poindexter comes from the
famous Black Barons of Birmingham,
Ala, and is said to be a topnotcher
behind the plate. The debut of the
battery pair should be an suspicious
one, as the Rogers Park team is a
worthy trial horse; that fact is we'll

DEMPSEY, The WARY ONE

pariel, - Jack Dempsey, whose name he
is using. The other Dempsey rests at
Portland, Ore, aud every champion
visiting that section of the country
always goes to the grave of one of the
world 5 famous and most gallant box
ers. This Dempsey stayed away on the
superstitious excuse that every chant
pion who barred his head at the grave
Of the Nonpariel' straightWay lost
his title or worse.
Fulton Cited.
Much different from the terrible
Dempsey is the disposition of Fred
Fulton, who, because Dempsey and the
rest of the clan will not fight him, is
forced to take ON the tough darks to
make livelihood. All the other prom
inent white heayyweights have drawn
the color line. They profess to have
done so through racial pride or preju-
dice, but have really done so through
fear. as in the case Of Dempsey, who
drew it after a vote had been taken
by the New York press. The fans were
asked to say whether they wanted to
see Dempsey fight Wills. On the poll
scven-eighths of the votes east were for
the fight. So Dempsey was assured
Of a great gate and could have made
his own terms. Jack had Just stated
he did not bar any man. But he drew
the color line the moment he learned
that the public wanted to see him and
Wills in the ring together. The only
white man who has dared to tackle
Wills so far has been Fred Fulton

DETROIT STARS READY
FOR THE GONG

DETROIT, Mich, April 12.-The
opening game of the Detroit Stars was
postponed in Detroit on account of cold
weather. The Stars will play the strong
Paulus Club next Sunday and the fans
will get a chance to see the new play
ers in action. Miller. third baseman,
signed contract with Stars and jumped
to the outlaws and johnson Hill, third
baseman of Alexander Giants of Los
Angeles, was signed and reported To the
Stars last week. Hill comes to the
Stars with a great reputation as being
one of the very best third sackers in
the game today. He is Il brainy. fast
ley, Warfeld higgins and j. Hill the
Stars will have the fastest infcld in
the league. In losing Miller the Stars
gained much better man in Hill. With
Big Bill Gatewood, Holland and Cooper,
Manager Hill signed Pitcher Force, the
pitching ace of the Knoxville Giants,
last season, and Lefty Lane from the
East and the pitching staff looks to
be the class of the league, and it IS
bound to cause the other owners a lot
of worry and sleepless nights. Pete
Hill and his Colts will have whole lot
to say before the pennant winner is
decided next fall. The Stars did their
spring training at home and had plenty
of good weather and Hill and his boys
are ready for the gong. Credit must
be given the Detroit management for
sparing no expense to give to the fans
of Detroit winning team, and Tenny
Blount, the Wolverine owner, will never
be satisfied until Detroit has cham
pionship team.

Now that the frebrand Dempsey has
about cinehed a meeting with Carpen-

prowess of the champ. The belief will
not down; Dempsey is wary of Willard

Of the name Harry Wills.
Carpenter, after going through the
horrors of war as French soldier,
cannot be and certainly is not the man
he WAS when he stood toe to toe with
the tough Joe jeanette and other
worthy battlers and gave them "a good
argument. Experts in all parts Of the

Willard chance ahead of the French

sition of his probable puny makeup

TAKE STAND FOR CUT.
York County Farmers Agree to Re-
.duce Cotton Acreage.


Two well attended meetings Of
York county farmers were held
Monday in the interest of cotton
acreage reduction for the year 1921.
the first meeting at the court house
a. York in the morning and the Sec
ond in the chamber of commerce
rooms in Rock Hill in the afternoon.
Many farmers at the meetings indi-.
Gated their intention to reduce their
acreage SO per cent and provision
was made for the. appointment of
committees to make thorough cam
vas OF the farmers Of the county to
urge general reduction of acreage
At the York meeting the principal
speaker was John T. Roddey OF
ROCK Hill, who urged the farmers to
plant no cotton this year and pleaded
with those who will not agree to so
drastic step to reduce their acre
age so per cent. Mr.. Roddey ar
raigned the cotton speculators of
New York as set of gamblers
whose activities are more pernicious
than those of the poker, roulette and
faro players because their opera
tions affect not themselves alone, but
rob the people of the South OF mil
lions OF dollars every year. He called
on the farmers to abandon the role
or sucker" show some of the fight
ing spirit that characterized their
forbears in the eos and do some L!
thing for themselves.
Approximately 800 farmers repre-
senting every part Of the western
section of the county were in attend
ance at the York meeting and a con-
siderable proportion OF them signed
the SO per cent reduction pledge.
At the Rock Hill meeting Monday
afternoon there was no speech-m maxi
Ing. DR.. ]. b. johnson, president of
the, county cotton association, stated
that the time for talking was passed
and now was the time to act. The
state ment was heartily applauded
and the sentiment in favor Of acre
age, reduction was strong.
