UNDERWOOD HEARD AT PARK FAIR FROM CAPITAL BY RADIO
Many Attend Country Fair Last Night and a Nice Sum Realized for
 Equipment

Urging the necessity and benefits to posterity in training of children by proper agencies in which he in- cluded the development of tho play ground system of the city. Senator Oscar W. Underwood from Washing ton last night addressed by radio one of the largest crowds perhaps ever assembled here before in the in terest of park and playground de. velopment at Underwood park. named in honor of the distinguished Alabamian
 Preceding the short message of greeting from the senator. Detroit and St. Louis furnished the musical program of the evening with several concert numbers which were highly enjoyed. The conc srt, a part of the program in the interest of better parks and more particularly the de- velopment of Underwood park under the direction of the Underwood Park Improvement association. was fur nished by courtesy of S. M. Bern helm of the Bernheip Electric com pany and F. B. Beasley, radio ex- pert The radio feature of the entertainment was the most distinct ever heard by local audience.
 Quite nice sum was realized by the improvement association last night in the forp of country fair, with every known entertainment which usually goes with park pro- grams of this nature. This fund will be used for the purchase of addi- tional equipment for the park.
 In his message Senator Underwood said:
 Greetings. my friends and neigh bors assembled at Underwood park.
 Tonight, in the interest of de- veloping a suitable recreation center for the children of our part of Bir- mingham, I am glad indeed, although in fact 800 miles away. to have this opportunity to speak to you. No great building can stand to serve it's purpose of the future without a sound foundation.
 The development along proper lines of child life is the foundation on which is built the superstructure of the civic. political and religious life of the nation in the generations to come. If we are careless and thoughtless as to the way our chil- dren shall grow up, we leave the characters of the men and women of the next generation to be determined by chance rather than by wise and careful direction. It is just as neees- sary for the growing child to have healthy body as a healthy mind. Safe and pleasant recreation centers are helpful in building both the mind and the body. Environment oI child hood goes a long way toward shap- ipr ha life haI nd n character of the man or woman. Well organized and directed play grounds caf and will insure proper environment for the children's pro, lection. I therefore wish every sue cess may come to the development of this splendid park and it's future upbuildhg, and wish to say that my heart will always be filled with gratitude for the kindly action of my neighbors in naming the park for my little daughter and myself"

HARRY MAILMAN WINS FINALS IN
 TENNIS TOURNEY
AtIantan Wins Cotton States Title Doubles Finals
 Today

Harry Hallman of Atlanta, youth ful tennis satellite. is tho new Cot ton states net champion as a result of his sensational victory in the finals of the Country Club tourna- ment yesterday. Hallman defeated a fellow Atlantan in winning the championship, when he nossd out victory over Jack Caldwell by scores of 7-5, so, 0-6, S-6, S-6.
 Jack caldwell. who had been play Ing great tennis throughout the tournament, and who had eliminated the 1921 champion, Lee Allen Brookes, on Thursday, started well. but after having apparently having swept Hallman off his feet. cracked and allowed his townsman to over come a good lead and capture the first set, to 5. Caldwell had cracked thoroughly and lost love set to Hallman and was two down.
 It was then that Caldwell rallied, and playing the most brilliant tennis of the tournament. ran through two quick sets in which he completely outclassed his opponent. Caldwell was placing the ball we'll and used a backhand stroke that literally sparkled in it's brilliance.
 Caldwell Cracks
 with the IldlCH SbdudlHb all CNOh' two sets to two, Caldwell continued the good tennis he ht1 been playing, and had run through five games of the last and deciding set, and was leading, 50. Caldwell even advanced so far as to carry the final game to within one point of victory, when he cracked again, and Hallnan won the game. Hallman then ran through four games. making the deciding set stand 5-5, but Caldwell won the sixth. Hallman then ran through three more games and won the final set. 8 to 6. CaldwelPs game come- back after losing the first two sets was feature of the match, but Hallman,s ability to seize his oppor- tunities cost his opponent thee vic- tory and the championship.
 Throughou- the latter part of the match, Caldwell was bothered with a cramp in his leg, and the final game was played with Caldwell ap- parentiy at a disadvantage.
 The doubles title will be decided this afternoon, Caldwell and Grant meeting Lange and Brookes. the local team, at 3:30 o'clock.

B. A. (. HAS PROVEN MAN TO STACK UP AGAINST WILSON
Ashton Donza to Meet Local Ringman Here on
 Monday
By MARVIN MCCARTHY

Time for action has arrived, claims Tommy Tompkins, match- maker for the Birmingham Athletic club, and railbirds are about to have their demands satisfied. All of which has to do with the Claude Wilson Ashton Donsa boxing match. to take place in the B. A. c. ring on Monday night.
 Claude Wilson, as local fandom well knows. Is young ringman of limited experience. but apparently with a splendid future ahead of him. In his few fights at the B. A. C. Will son has shown decided tendency to maui the dayllghts out of everything placed in front of him. and the natu- ral question of the railbirds has been: "Set-ups or ability on Wilson's part?" Says Tommy Tompkins in regard to the situation:
 Young Claude has beaten every one sent against him. Still the rail- birds are not satisfied. They claim they know nothing of the ability of any of Wilson's opponents, and they have been clamoring for bout wherein the local boy is pitted against a ringman of known expe- rience and ability.
 Well. their demands will be met when Donza and Wilson meet. The many fights of this little New or leans scrapper at the B. A. c. are can be no cries of 'fluke' or 'set-up' after the bout Monday night"
 Donsn Has Won Spurs
 And Tommy Tompkins seems on the right track when he so confi- dently makes these assertions. Ash ton Donza Is known here as a courageous and capable battler. He has fought the best of his class in Dixie, and lately has been stepping out bit up east. Very few bantams have given Donza a drubbing, and the little former international anna teur champion seems well on the way to the fistic success that was Pete Herman's, a townsman, and also bantam.
 Meanwhile, as railbirds discuss the probability of another sensational victory for Claude Wilson or a set back in his winning drive, the two young scrappers are winding up their training for the bout Claude does dolly boxing and conditioning at the B. A. C., while the doughty Donza, in the midst of d summer campaign, will drop off in the Magic City in day or so in splendid condition.
 Billy Roux, Donza's manager writes that his boy is showing all his old-time cleverness and speed, as well as jarring punch these days.
 The feature Of the wrestling card to precede Monday nights boxing ex- hibitions, will be the return bout be- tween Tom Lacey, Y. M C. A, and Homer Smiles, B. A. C., in which La cey's state wrestling championship will be at stake

Paul announced that he was going

feeling stiff and weary. The coun-
tryside that had seemed Fairyland

desert.

pressed her fingers to her temples
as she thought of what the town
would be without Paul.

flashed out again as he drew her
