INDIAN IS MAKING GOOD
JEFFERSON COUNTY TEAMS PLAY LAST GAMES NEXT WEEK
By BEN GREEN

Jefferson County league teams will meet tomorrow in the next to the last week of this seasons schedule It has been one of the most successful and hotly contested seasons yet played in the local prep circuit. Ensley journeys to Jefferson County. Shades-Cahaba en- counters the Panthers at Munger field sons at Avondale park. All three con tests tare between second and first dHi- sion teams, respectively, but the lower aggregations may upset the dope and cause consternation in the leaders camps.
 Coach Hovater's Yellow Jackets will probably have an easy time with the Wildcats, who have not shown much lately. However, if the Jefferson de- fense should suddenly acquire some speed in backing up Clay. the game might result in a close contest If the Jackets were to lose this game. there would be no chance for her to get into a tie for first plac&, so with this in view factory for the Ensleyites is fore cast Friel will probably twirl for Ensley, while Clay will likely pitch for Jefferson.
 Simpson should easily dispose of the Mountaineers, who have not succeeded in winning a game since their opening victory over Jefferson. It is not likely that they will show another flash of form and defeat the Junior Panthers but it is easily possible that the contest may be a close affair. Norwood will more than likely mount the slab for Simpson, while Acton will probably hurl for the Mountaineers.
 The Tigers have been furnishing some

YOUTH MUST BE SERVED

Keen competition of late, playing Simp-. son off their feet in the first few in nings, only to lose out in the eighth Central defeated Coach Golfers screw 5 to 0 in Bessemer, so the outlook for a close game at Avondale is promising Sheridan who only allowed the Crimsons two hits in their six inning game, will probably start for Bessemer, while Har- ris will more than likely hurl for Cen. tral.
 CENTRAL-ENSLEY DISPUTE
 Last night at the Birmingham Athletic club, President Harry Strong, dictator of the prep league, met with Coach Meyers of Central and Coach Hovater of Ensley and after discussion finally officially forfeited the game of Tuesday, April 26, between Ensley and Central to the former. The forfeiture was allowed because the umpire wrote to Proxy Strong stating that he had forfeited the contest to the Ensley team. Had it not been for this epistle it is likely that the game would have been played over.
 The present system of umprng has been very unsatisfactory. and it is very likely that new method will be adopted next year. Under the present agreement each team brings umpire, and the two arbiters alternate at calling the strikes and ruling on the bases. Next year efforts will probably be made to secure a regular staff of umpires.

 Two Of the Crimson pointers came In the third inning. Sewel got a single followed by Halls single. Both advanced a base on a fielder's choice, and were brought in by single fr~ln Rosenfeld. Rosenfeld took second seder's choice and third on pass ball, but left on base when Bob Hinton knocked a fly to left. In the fourth frame Brown got hit, stole second, went to third on a fielder's choice and came in pass ball. Brown also brought in the fourth marker in the sixth session, when he got to first error stole second and third, and reached home by well placed sacrifice hit by Nathan.
 The Tigers were never threatening. reach ing second base only three times, and never feeling third However, they exhibited fast and efficient fielding.
 Sewel worked short for the Crmsons and his sure peg that he has been displaying behind the bat served him well in that de pertinent.

 Eddie Hanlon will encounter Young Allen, Pacific coast lightweight, in the feature bout of the evening, which is ex- pected to be a classy mixup from every angle Hanlon is we'll known to local fandom. while Allen comes here with a good reputation and expects to maks d name for himself in the Magic City. This fight is scheduled to go for six rounds but with both men mixing it live ly there is the prospect for knockout.
 Roy Millner meets Bill Edwards in the semi-fmal and, although these two youngsters have not acquired much fams in local fistic circles, they are figured to be coming along at lively rate. Steve Sarron, popular 100-pound amateur champion of the city, will take on Young Taters in what should be good stiff argument Sarron is a favorite at the Boys club and has delighted many ring advocates in the prelims at the Bir- mingham Athletic club.
 Steve's brother, Pete. who is one of the best in the So-pound class in the city will mix matters with Louis Perkins. These lads have had several arguments already and should furnish some excite n.ent tonight. Paul Jones' figured by many to be the classiest and most scen- tific boxer of his weight and age in the state if not the south, will exhibit before the clubmen with Sammy Haynes as his opponent. These lads scale the weight revealers at around 65 pounds and are probably the two best boys ia their class in the city.
