where or else found the rags in the
ash can. Brown took his place be-
hind the bat when@he had used up all
the energy he had in reserve Charlie
Sage was humdinger on first. The
way he pulled the balls down from
the clouds was good for sore eyes.
He never felt the need of keeping his
foot on the sack. He would meet the
runners half way from home and
touch them with the ball. Doc Peek
substituted for Charlie in the last in
ming and it is my duty to warn all
lovers of quiet little game not to
play with Doc unless he rolls his
sleeves over the elbow. Doc keeps
them hid away against the time of
need. After missing throw to first
ne calmly reached somewhere in his
clothes and pulled another ball and
touched the runner out. What a
poker shark Doc must be. Christie
was the real fielding star of the aft
ernoon. He did three handsprings,
two complete rrygo-rounds and a
falling leaf under one pop fiy-then
got set, held up his hands for the ball
and missed it. Truly the lad is good.
| Shorty Davidson cavorted about on
short as ,briskly as mule colt and as
gracefully as a gazelle. Shorty also
tried his hand at pitching an inning
Or TWO and had the opponents at his
mercy. His two-bagger to center was
one of the miracles of the game. Ie
was good for home run but you
know Shorty didn't spend much time
IN growing legs when he was boy.
| Doc Howard Walters looked real
sweet in Hansel Leavengood's last
years ball suit. Doc played a won
derful game so long as the ball did not
third Doc landed on two or three
for extra bases and was heard to say
he would show little doc Jr" how to
play ball pretty soon. Hubert Biting
substituted on third when Doc went
into the box to relieve Davidson. HUI
bert said he was sent there to play
third and he positively did not take
his feet off the third sack the whole
time he was out in the field. He
would make a good marine when it
comes to guard duty. Joe Blalock did
an actual hours work. When that
was over he punched the clock and sat
down. Joe belongs to the union and
won't work over time. Dobbs sub
stituted for Joe in left field but no
batter thought it worth while to try
to send one past Dobbs. He amt built
that way. Burgess played center field
and expects to relieve Jimmie Liddell
as soon as the boys return from
High Springs. Burgess hasn't stop
ped one yet. Halsell played right
field and to this fat boy belongs the
gold star of the afternoon. He is as
. fast on his legs as Texas steer and
spent most of his time retrieving the
balls that got by his pals. Whel
: headed for center field fence his leg
looked like the drivers of a monkey
motion Baldwin locomotive.

GOING TO MEET AGAIN
PRESENTMENT
OF THE GRAND JURY

To the Honorable Judge Bullock of
the Fifth Judicial Circuit of Fla.
We, the Grand Jurors, sworn and
empaneled at this, the spring term A.
D., 1922, in and for Marion county,
having completed our labors, beg to
submit this, our final spresentment.
We have carefully and diligently in
vestigated and inquired into all mat
ters brought to our attention. We
have considered a large number of
cases and have found true bills only
in those cases where we were salts
field the evidence would justly the
conviction.
Believing that in the cases OF viola
tion of the liquor laws, to which your
honor has called our attention, prop
er disposal should be made of all
law, we recommend that all liquors
taken be properly listed as to kind
and quantity in an inventory to be
prepared by the sheriff and verified
by the Judge of the circuit or county
court, and that after provision has
been made for the necessary exhibite
of evidence in the courts the liquors
be disposed of and destroyed in the
presence of the sheriff (clerk Of court
and Judge of the county court, as pro-
vided by law. We further recommend
that the county commissioners take
such steps as might be necessary to
have enacted into law a provision
whereby seized liquors Of . good and
known quality might be turned over
to the hospitals Of the county in such
quantity and manner as in the judg.
ment of the Judge Of the circuit court
seems best.
| We have investigated the matter
of the sale of the county road bonds
and the deposit Of the proceeds, call
ed to our attention by your honor, and
find that the bonds sold for a fair
price, but that the money was deposit
ed in the banks without interest pur
suant to an agreement or understand
ing of the county commissioners, bono
trustees and purchasers Of said bonds
which was not a matter of record
This was due to the fact that the
banks would not handle the bonds
without the privilege This was ir
regular, but the purchasers requested
it be handled in this manner so a:
mot to affect the legality Of the bonds
We are satisfied that the officials act
ed in good faith and In manner tina
they considered the best interest o.
the county. However, subsequen
events have shown that this actor
was not wise. We think that th'
people are entitled to full information
about all public business and that th'
minutes of the board OF commissioner
should disclose all transactions takeH
by that body.
We desire to commend our pubiii
spirited citizens, John H Taylor, Dr
lJ. G. Baskins, and L < Edwards, wht
are acting as county bond trustee
without compensation

pairs We find that the last Grand
Jury recommended that the Board Of
County Commissioners whitewash and
repaint the entire building, that the
window panes be replaced and that
the building be properly heated at all
times, and that they further recon-
mended that the prisoners be required
to keep their persons and quarters
in a thoroughly sanitary condition
We find that these recommendation
have not been carried out as, to the
repairs and the sanitary condition Of
the p risoners, and urge that economy
demands htat the recommendations
of the grand jury be carried out, and
that the repairs be made before re-
placements under heavier expense be-
come necessary.
The County Court House
We have examined the court house
and find it in a deplorable condition,
inside and out The roof is leaky,
pIastering is falling on, the walls and
floors are unclean, the toilets are un-
sanitary, and windows have not been
cleaned, and the metal work Of the ex-
terror needs painting in order to pre-
serve it. 1t is also important that the
building present a slightly appearance.
We find that recommendation Of the
last grand jury in regard to the court
house have not yet been carried out,
and urge the importance Of making all
necessary repairs at the earliest prac-
teal moment.
Roads
We find our county road system In
a very deplorable condition and we
recommend to the county commits
sioners that the present system OF
road construction and maintenance be
changed, and that the county road
system be placed under the direction
of a general superintendent Of high
ways, 10 be known as the county su.
perintendent Of highways, and we fur
ther recommend that the county com
missioners employ as a superintend
ent Of highways a man Of practical
road building experience, and we rec
ommend and strongly urge that this
/ be done at the earliest practicable
moment.
In conclusion We desire To thank
your honor for your able charge and
assistance and to thank the state 4
attorney, county clerk, sheriff and
deputies for their assistance TO rs in
the discharge Of our duties. and We
now ask to be discharged
Respectfully submitted,

ocALA. FLORIDA. FRIDAY, MAY L., 1922
THERE WERE ONLY
TWO BLOWS STRUCK
Carpenter Hit Lewis, and Lewis Hit
the Floor-Dempsey and Carpen-
tier Win Fight Again

London, May 12.-(By Associated
Press.-Georges Carpenter last night
knocked out Ted Kid Lewis in the
first round of what was to have been
twenty-round bout for the light
heavyweight championship OF the
world held by Carpenter. The end
came when Carpenter in breaking
from clinch, drove a sharp right to
the point of Lewis jaw. The Eng
lishman toppled over backward and
lay motionless on the floor until the
referee counted tea Then Carpenter
picked up his fallen foe and aided in
carrying him to his corner.
FRENCHMAN FOUGHT FAIR
London, May 12.-(By Associated
Press) s).-The blow with which Car
pentier knocked out Lewis In the first
round here last night was legitimate
in the judgment Of experts who cover
ed the fight. Cries of Foul" came
from all parts of the auditorium when
the blow was struck. Joe Palmer, the
referee, is quoted as saying "the blow
was perfectly fair. The men had
broken from clinch and it was
Lewis business to protect himself.
This he failed to do"
GOING TO MEET AGAIN

Dempsey to meet either in Paris or
London before next may has been
reached by Kearns and DesChambs.

FACULTIES AT FAULT

arc either not dilieent in their duties
or they are willing to let profes-
sionalism creep In.
In recent years professional foot
ball has opened up a field for the
college football player to reap hand
some financial reward for his play
Ing and reputation
Consequently there have been n
great many cases where the college
athlete has become professional. In
most cases with the idea that ne
can make the much-nccded money
without being detected.
Baseball has always been an en-
emy OF amateur standing.
During the summer months good
college baseball players have found
that playing ball affords thcm big
financial reward for their efforts.
They have. In a good many cases.
seized upon the opportunity with
the result that they have been bar
red from further participation In in
tercollegiate athletics. or. II not de-
.tected. have perpetrated fraud up
on the university.
As long as the financial rewards
for athletic talent are 80 great there
will be those VIII, viii indulge In
such cases there is nothing left 10
do but disQualfy the parties from
further intercollegiate athletes.
