AUGUSTA, March 3O.-Detroit's
immediate baseball future depends
upon second base. If the Tigers have
developed combination for the key
stone sack, Detroit must seriously
be considered in this years pennant
race.
At present chances are that vet

tight and left of this point when the
season opens. The recruit is Emory
E. Rigney. a slender youth who
somewhat resembles Dave Bancroft
in build. He came out of the Texas
League to Detroit and was immedi-
ately handed the job of shortstop-
ping.
The veteran second sacker will be
either pep" Young or George Cut
shaw.
Young is a Detroit veteran. Last
season he developed a throwing fault
which seriously handicapped his
team.
Young suddenly became unable at
times to throw to first base, tossing

to overcome the fault. During the

Because of the apparent ire

gard to funds with which to make

every person in the city will be asked
to give toward the mile of pennies
now being collected for the fund.
Mrs. c. G. Hawkins, president of

urges all the friends of the Institution
to assist them to the fullest extent
on this one day drive for the money.

message will be especially addressed
to the patrons and teachers of the
schools. She will use records to es-
tablish her claim that music can best
be taught through the hearing by
records. Musical appreciation will
form a part of her talk, together
with a plea for better music in the
homes, schools and public entertain
ments. The various clubs of the city
will cooperate with Miss Polk and
Miss Streeter in making the occas-
ion one of profit and pleasure.

Der of the Pirates last year he bat

Ty Cobb signed Cutshaw during

utility part than a youngster.
Utility infelders are generally call

SABBATH OBSERVANCE
SUBJECT OF MEETING

At the meeting of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union in the
First Baptist church Tuesday after
noon, an interesting program was
heard by the twelve or fifteen mem
bers present.
Mrs. u. A. Littlejohn presided, and
read an unusual paper on "Observ-
ance of the Sabbath which led to
earnest and prayerfuithough for the
remainder of the exercises. The
Scripture lesson was taken from the
laws of Moses as laid down to the
lsraelites for their strict observance
of the holy cay, and prayers follow
ed that the members of the organiza-
ton and the congregations of the
various churches should heed the adj
monitions.
Mrs. w. C. Bland read an inter-
esting leaflet on Gems of Thought of
Great Men Concerning the Observ-
ance of the Sabbath" which told of
the manner in which Washington, JEFF
ferson, and many great men of a
century ago, as well as the influential
factors of the present day, regard the
observance of the Sabbath.
Resolutions were drafted and read
by request by Mrs. r. P Stackhouse
on the observance of the Sabbath in
Americas, and were placed on the
minutes by Mrs. N. A. Vaughan, sec
rotary, who was instructed to ask
that they be printed in the Times-Re-
corder. They follow:
First, That we greatly deplore
the violation of the Sabbath in our
community;
Second, That we recognize the
observance of the Sabbath as a di-
vine command from God.
Third, That we would ask those
of our town and community who are
mdulging in sports on Gods day 20
desist from the same, realizing that
they are not only violating Gods
law, but through their influence are
causing others to sin, thereby en-
failing suffering upon their own child
ren, even unto the third and fourth
generation;
Fourth, That we as individuals
and as an organization, will do all IN
our power, in our homes and in our
community 10 keep Gods day holy,
