Four Vets. Tried and True

Four Vets, Tried and True
 No matter what happens fans will see at least four star umpires in action this summer These four men have seen at least two or three years service each in the Southern. while one Of them has been here ever since the league was organized Pfenninger, Will Hams, Johnson and Brennan make up quartet who ave stood the acid test for number of years. Handy and Jorda made their debut in this loop last year, and Guthrie and Connie Lewis are newcomers of whom little Is known. Chances are, however, that Proxy Martin had some pretty good dope on the two latter named, for the woods were full of applications this year, and he had a wide list Of entries to select from.
 PfenRinger Dean of lem All
 Dan Pfenninger is the grand daddy of all the umps in minor league baseball. Dan has been on lift SdUit JOD Sliltt 1JU1 WHICH tit organization was formed. Dams been here so long in fact that he reminds one of the old dock worker, who slaved on the docks from the time he was 16 until he reached the age of S5. Then one Light the company, realizing he was too old for further work, gave him his notice. The old man went home very much ad- dled, and meeting his wife in the doorway he said; Mary, l told you when I went to work down there, that wasn't going to be no regular job.n
 Well, Dan would probably look on his discharge in the same light if he got the gate in Dixie. He has seen the league weather many vicissi-(don't know how to spell it)-and has had many novel experiences in umpiring down here. Last season Dan got con siderable razzing from the fans. and many figured that he was getting too old to umpire. Boss Martin didn't seem to think so, though, for he has retained him for another year.
 Dan spends his winters labor ing at the shoemaker's trade in Buffalo, N. Y.
 Bulldog and Old-timer
 Bulldog Williams has also come to be recognized as an old-timer. Bull was one of the best umps In the circuit last season and he and Cy. Pfirman, recognized as the ace, and the man who was pro- noted to the National league, teamed together. There was time when Bulldog ran amuck and it happened right here in Birmingham. That was his first year in the circuit, and the rukus naturally gave him black eye in more ways than one. He was dropped from the payroll, but few years later was reinstated a the suggestion and on the rec ommendation of the men he had the trouble with. Since his rein statement Bulldog has delivered the goods in acceptable fashion.
 Brennan Absent Year
 Before he graduated into the National league where he enjoyed only one years service, Bill Bren- nan was recognized as the ace of umps down this way and was

 Brennan Is oJe of the most capable men who ever worked down here. In the National league. however, he had the un- happy faculty of arousing the ire of some men pretty promi- nently connected in baseball, and by virtue of this misfortune he lost out in the majors and was forced to return to the Southern.
 Steamboat Casts Anchor
 After a stormy session in the Sally league, where the fans kill umpires for two bits, and give a party rate on three or more umps, at that. Steamboat Harry John son returns to the Southern. Fans are more pleased with this change than any taking place on the roster. Steamboat has a way about him that tickles and pleases the bleacherites. He won fame. through his manipulations of a whisk broom, his stance behind the plate. his strut around the field and his leather -lunged voice
 Steamboat had 8 row with Boss Martin between the seasons of 20 and '2f. It was oyer salary. And, when Martin failed to kick in with the desired quantity of sheckles, Steamboat blew to the Sally. It is believed that he re- gretted this move, for we find him back again, and ready to call 'em as he sees 'em.
 
 Tandy and Jorda have the mak- ings of good umpires, and if Guth- rie and Connie Lewis come through the Southern will have one of the best lots of umpires 1t has enjoyed in many seasons.

Luigi Finds
 An Old Friend

Luigi Salvatore was familiar in the "old country" with the Blanche Popolari, or Peoples Banks. /" They were great insti- tutions owned and managed by workers where honest men of moderate means could borrow on easy terms.
 When Luigi heard of Trustees System, therefore, it was like news of an old friend. He went, without hesitation, to ask the loan of $200 which he needed to complete the initial payment on little tailor shop.
 The loan was quickly granted, chiefly on the security of Luigi's good character and steady work ing record. Under it's terms he repaid the advance in small monthly instaIlments out of his earnings-an ideal arrangement for workers, as thousands of them have learned by experience with Trustees System.
 And soon, therefore, Luigi was full owner of his prosperous lit tie tailor shop.

Coach Ervin's men nave passed the biggest game on their schedule. the clash with the Atlanta Athletic club. but tonight they are ,facing team which almost as bitter a rival as the A. A. C. cagesters are. Tonight, at $50 o'clock, the Clubbers clash with the University of Alabama five, in a game to be played on the B. A. C. court.
 The Clubbers are again seeking re- venge tonight. Alabama won an early season game from the Clubbers in the University court, doubling the score of Coach Erv:n's men. The local outfit will try to wipe out this de- feat in tonight's game at the B. A. C..
 In the game with the Atlanta Ath- ietic club last Saturday the Clubbers were popped up 10 their highest point, and played probably their best game of the season. If Coach ErVin's men are in the same form tonight. Ala bama will have a hard job to dupii- cate it's carly season defeat of the clubbers.
 Alabama has some of the best men in the south in it's lineup. Slim Car ter at center, is considered strong bet for ail-southern, while McCauley and Stabler, forwards. have been playing great basketball for the Crimsons this year.
 Smiling Kid" Gazzolla, at guard, is thought to be the most valuable find of the Crimsons this year. He plays great game and is considered one of the strongest units of tho Univers- ity five.
 Coach Erwin will probably start the same lineup that walloped the At lanta A. C. last Saturday. Tonight's game will be followed by the usual dance.

 The girls staff of servants has dwindled to two old people and as she knows the American will demand more servants, she pretends that she is maid, and that Lady Noreen is away on a visit.
 The humorous and humiliating ex- periences that this spirited little mo- ble woman has while posing as house maid make a delightful story, and one that is universally appealing. There

Elaine Hammerstein in Q Selznick picture, "Why Announce Your Mar riage?" is announced as the featured attraction at the Lyric theatre next Tuesday Unlike most of the pictures in which this charming star has re gently appeared Why Announce Your Marriage?" is a comedy of the lighter type which is said to afford the star new opportunities of which she makes the most at all times.
 The story deals with the determina- tion of a young married couple to keep their wedding secret from their friends and public. In doing so they involve themselves in mire of scan- dal that grows deeper and deeper all the while, finally resulting in situa- tion that threatens them both with lasting disgrace.
