COPIAH WILL CLEAR
MILLION IN TRUCK

Hazlehurst, June 12.-The
vegetable movement from
Hazlehurst and Copiah county
is at the highest peak this
week, more than 400 cars hav-
ing left the county during the
past four days alone. Hazel
hurst shipped out 65 cars in
one day, this being the highest
Of the season here. All but
five cars were tomatoes, of the
wrapped variety.
During the week just passed
Hazlehurst handled and shipped
more than 300 cars, and other
parts of the county shipped out
over 400 cars, making a grand
total for the week of over 700
cars. While prices have been
lower by reason of quantity and
the advancement Of the season,
the farmers are still making
profits on their products of the
farm.
A great many farmers have
sold already more than nalf
their crops, and state they will
make good money this year. To
date Copiah county has shipped
out more than 1900 cars of veg
tables, which includes all vege-
tables from peas, which came
first, to tomatoes, the main
crop. Taken as a whole the
county will market around $,3-
100000 worth of vegetables
this season, but a greater por-
ton of that, of course, is taken
up in expenses of growing and
marketing. It is safe to say,
however, that farmers of the
above all expenses when the
season ends. |

SAN FRANCISCO IS
TAKEN BY SHRINERS

San Francisco, Calf, June
12.-The Meccaof the Occident
fell before the scimitar of red
fezzed hordes today and the
sign of the star and crescent
was hung above the shrine Of
ST. Francis, San Francisco, En-
chanted city, capitulated to
thousands of delegates of the
Golden jubilee of the Ancient
Arabic Order of Mobiles of the
Mystic Shrine.
The triumphal entry of
mobiles began with the break of
day. Thousands of feet trod
the pavements to the strains of
the "Conqueror" march.
Market street, like a canopied
avenue to Solomon's temple,
awaited the invasion of strange
tribes. The temple itself, be-
hind the mosques and rows of
sleeping camels, had risen from
the magic carpet of hospitality
spread in the civic center.
Blare of trumpets heralded
the arrival of the invaders. In
flashing, gaudy robes to the
crash and blare and melody of
drums flies and brass, the no.
bles stepped proudly along the
faggings of the city they had
captured.

Yesterday for tho first time since
the trip 10 Child's. Md, the letter men
wore given light workout Some OF
them revealed In the various phases
OF the practice that they were not off
color. Their plays and formations
were executed In a manner that was
satisfactory TO Coach Malloy. Next
week wifi SEQ these lads, who made
the premier Gold and White eleven
one OF credit and renown, in full
swing on the gridron..
Lining the boys up In careful forma-
ton. and setting them at the right
distance apart. the coach proceeded to
demonstrate several important plays.
One particular lapy was tried n num-
Der of times because of It's being n
difficult one. However, the lads COON
grasped the best way to make this
play and soon had the pigskin man
lpulator in fine style. This was the
most significant play that the veter-
ans OF last years eleven executed.
The coach gave much attention to
tho back6eld. With Lowell, Dolan,
Reese and Russo making up the back
| field. many difficult plays were gone
| through with the plgskin. This quar-
tet was shown the correct way 70

This work completed the letter mem

kicking.
The other candidates had not beer
idle during all tho time the lette

runs and skIlfully made touchdown
marked this practice. After scrim
maglng tho new boys were made {

well each time.
The young candidates were sorme

to break and hold back the limo OF tn

New York, Sept. 2o.---Balked by the
Red Sox In tho game OF the series,
largely because of the stellar play Of
three OF their former teammates. the
New York Yankees resumed their
hunt today for the elusive maine
matical certainty" In the American
League pennant race.
Needing but a single Victory 70
clinch the championship. the Yankees
failed yesterday In their attempt %
settle the issue, despite the fact that
Joe Bush, premier American League
twlrler, was on the firing line, Bush
did we'll but could not match the
brand Of hurting uncorked by Rip Col
Inns, erstwhile Yankee southpaNv, who
plloted the Red Sox TO a 3 TO ] de-
clsion. The hitting of Derrili Pratt
and Johnny Mitchell, also Yankee
castoffs, figured In all the Boston
scoring
The St Louis Browns, whose re-
naming chance In the race rests on
the possibility OF tie. which would
result IL they win all Of their re-
manning three games while the Yam
KEGS lose the same number yet on
their schedule, get into action today
against the White Sox after a layoff
Of several days. A defeat for the
| Browns would automatically eliminate
them from the contest regardless OF
| how the Hugmen fare.
Should the unexpected happen, how
ever, and the Browns tic the Yankees
for tho pennant, the rules provide that
a play-of OF three games would be
necessary to decide the championship
These games would have 10 be played

Such an eventuality also would neces
