The Lubbock avalanche. (Lubbock, Tex.) 1909-1922, 1922-05-02

II seems as though the elements
are not going 10 permit any more
baseball this season. The game
Saturday with Clovis was one mud
fight after another. The field was
very heavy and soggy, and damp,
cold wind was blowing from the
east, with low hanging misty CLOUDS
overhead, making IL difficult ana
practically impossible for any real
baseball to be shown.
However, we can't kick about the
rain. for that is what we have been
wanting. but those Hubbers sure
looked good out there In those new
uniforms. They al shined up IKE
new dollars. They carry across
the breast of the uniform the name
"Hubbers." suggestive Of the Hub
from which they come. On the
sleeve Of the shirt the emblem OF
the Chamber Of Commerce Is worn,
and on the cap the letter az" mean
ing Lubbock" the best town yet
heard Of.
The Hubbers are still playing
1000 per cent, the only club in any
league that can boast Of that feat,
and the way things are looking up
now they will be playing that per.
centage the next time we hear OF
them. We have the dreaded team
of the League, for a visiting team
cringes when the name Hubbers Is
mentioned, each one leaving the
impression that they would rather
win over Lubbock than any three
of the others.
Tuesday the Hubbers will go up
TO Amarillo for a three-game series,
the opening on their diamond, az
which time they expect to pour II
on us" the Mayor having declared
holiday. But, Of course there Is
possibility of disappointment to
them. From Amarillo they go TO
Clovis for three games after which
they return home and have four
teen straights on the home diamond.
Great form is being displayed by
these "sluggers," and II that pen
nant isn't waving over the HUB
| CITY" at the end Of the season, we
are going TO know the reason why
and somebody else is going 70 know
that an awful price has been paid

Bound Over on
Theft Charges

COUNCIL BLUFF, Ark, Oct 20
Twenty-four of the forty-one railway
mail clerks charged with stealing from
the mails at the Union Pacific terminal
here, appeared today before United
States Commissioner W. A. Dyer and
We're bound over to the federal grand
jury under bonds ranging from $3.50 to
$500 All of the "a men surrendered
voluntarily, and it is expected the others
for whom warrants have been issued,
will do likewise.
Twenty-one of the men arraigned to-
day entered pleas of guilty. Three
pleaded not guilty. Two pleaded guilty
to thefts from first class mails. Others
pleading guilty confined their pleas of
guilty to theft of merchandise.
Postal authorities here would not esti-
mate the value of the thefts but dis
patch from Washington quoted postal
officials with estimating the amount of
the thefts at $50,000.. The majority of
the men against whom charges have
been made are new employees according
to postal authorities here. The ages Of
the men surrendering today ranged be-
tween 10 and 80 years with the majority
Of them being in their early twenties.

ROAD WORK IS
HARD HIT BY
CAR SHORTAGE
Contractors Unable To
Secure Construction
Material For Gulf
Beach Highway

Great embarrassment and untold incon-
venience is being entailed upon the con-
tractors for the construction of the Gulf
Beach Highway, Speed Parker Company
Of Louisville, KY, through their ina
bility to secure cars for the transporta-
ton Of construction materials. including
cement, sand and gravel. to the scene
Of their operations.
While excellent progress has been made
on the highway, considering the handi-
caps under which the contractors have
been operating since the inauguration of
the railroad strike on July l, not more
than half the mileage has been finished
that might have been were it not for the
car shortage situation created by the
strike.
Full two miles Of paving has been laid
to date, the bridge spanning Soldiers
creek has been completed and the bridge
across the head Of Bayou Grande, at
Pleasant Grove, is we'll under way, but
with capacity material supplies available
since the paving was started. the COM
pleted mileage by now would have reach
ed the bayou crossing at Pleasant Grove.
Fifteen cars of sand and gravel is the
daily consumptive capacity of the con-
tractors. This will lay six hundred feet of
paving. However, the receipts Of material
now average less than five cars daily.
