FIRST BASEBALL HERE
NEXT wEEK-oCEAN SPRINGS
After Three-Game Series Brookhaven
Club Goes to Eattiesburg for Two :
Games with Virgins.

The opening games of the 1922 Sc
ries Of unknown numbers that will be
played BY the Brookhaven Baseball AS
sociation's Club, will commence next
Monday, May 18th. in game here with
the Ocean Springs, Miss, aggregation,
which will be followed on the two sue
ceeding days, May 10th and 18th, with
games here with the same aggregation
of ball tossers.
1t is understood that the sea coast
crowd will bring along a few players
other than local men which of course
will make interesting playing for the
Brookhaven club, as no games have yet
been played to test the abilities of the
men who have been signed, not all of
whom have reported or viii report in
time for the opening, games. This de-
ficicncy in the regular ltne%up that will
later be filled will necessitate the fill
ing in of several places on the local
team by home men for the three game
series to come.
After playing the three games here
the Brookhaven club will leave for
aattiesburg where two games Thursday
md Friday, May 18th and 18th will be
played with the Virgins, Miss, team
which has been playing for some weeks
and are generally recognized as a fast
aggregation.

Read how the Russian Symphony
thrilled Knoxville, Tenn.
Aesthetic Knoxville snatched at a
few morsels of soul-satisfying music
last night, such as seldom condescends
to honor the city with visit, when the
Russian Symphony Orchestra played to
a capacity house at the Knoxville High
School auditorium.
Max Gegna, 'cellist, captivated the
spectators with solo numbers, accompa-
MED by the entire orchestra.
From the opening number, the ov-
erture from "Tanhauser," to the last
strains of March Slav", the artists
played upon their hearers as the hyp-
notist does upon his subject. Their in
depreciation, shading and graduation Of
themes sustained their national repu-
tation as artists of the first rank.
Soldiers Song product Of the mu-
sical soul Of Conductor Modest Altschu-
Ter, proved delightful contrast to some
of the heavier numbers, and was liber-
ally applauded. Dance of the Hours
from "Gioconda" proved probably the
most enjoyable of the evening, coming
as the finale to Part I.
When the closing strains of the last
number died away, no member of the
audience made any start to leave. and
the enthusiasm did not subside until an
encore. was forthcoming. 1t proved to
be no other than the ever popular Dix
ie, plebian enough in some respects, but
always striking a responsive chord in
the hearts of descendants Of the old
South"
The Orchestra Is giving the same
program in Brookhaven that they play
ed in Knoxville.

Buy-At-Home Section is
Well Worth A Reading

A Buy-At-Home Section is appearing
in portion of today's Leader, made
possible by the cooperation of large
number of progressive firms of Brook
haven.
No community could exist if its resi-
dents sent abroad for all their needs
and the logic expressed in the many
announcements in this section which
will appear in other series in the fu-
ture cannot be overlooked by the most
casual citizen.
This portion of The Leader allotted
to the movement is wen worth reading,
to which its subscribers attention is es-
pecially called.

STATEMENT OF MR. CONVERSE
Mr.. b. w. White.
Hazlehurst. Miss.
Dear Sir:-
After examining the cuttings from
your well / decided an examination of
the returns from the well as they came
from the well would throw more light
went to your we'll on two occasions
while you were operating.
The returns weer watched with inter-
est, and it is with no difficulty at all
that almost anyone, although not fami-
liar with such matters could plainly see
the crude oil floating around the ditch
with the mud.
noticed several large drops of oil
coming at regular intervals also sufh-
cient gas to cause violent foaming of
the mud laden fluid as it came from the
we'll. These are unmistakable signs OF
petroleum and plainly indicate the pres
ence of oil and gas.
Since the showings are continuous
and not intermittent, they therefore
demonstrate the fact that there is both
oil and gas in considerable quantities
in the well at the present depth of the
hole.
1t appears to me that the well should
be cased as soon as possible whether
tested or not.
1t is absolutely essential that the well
be equipped with the necessary surface
controls.
During my stay at the well made a
detour of possibly two miles. to ascer-
tain the nature of the outcrops and
possibility of an oil structure, all of
which is quite satisfactory and offers
sufficient encouragement to carry the
well to any reasonable depth.
The hole seems to be in perfect con-
dition, and Judging from the amount of
oil and gas now showing taking into
consideration that the hole has been in
operative several weeks, it appears to
me that the well would make good
/ commercial gasser at its present depths
and would in short time blow in con-
siderable oil.
In fact, I believe that the well will
make good producer if properly cased
and brought in at its present depth.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) Thos. P. Converse.
Pet. Geologist.

The Cumberland Telephone Company
here has been rebating citizens at this
place who paid the raise in rates in
March. 1921, over the protest of num-
bers of others who rather than pay
the raise had their phones cut out. This
is in accordance with the decision of
the Supreme Court which refused to
grant the raise in rates projected by the
company at the time.
