sKIRTs ARE sHORYER

The recent shortening of skirts by Parisian dressmakers is being gener- faTy followed by fashion leaders but the rank and file of women-those whose gowns are bought with hard earned money-are beating the game in two ways. Many of them have res urrected their r-beforee last knee-lcngth skirts; others have
 merely slashed their skirts, giving a sort of directoire effect and those who have draped, overlapping panelled skirts have loosened the panel so that walking motion or friendly breeze gives an excellent display of hosiery.

POWELL IS OPPOSED TO THE FOUR MILL TAX
Walker Legislator Wants To Put County Officials On Salary
 JASPER BUREAU
Renresentative J.


 Jasper. Ala. Aug. 20
 Representative J. B. Powell of Walker county, who is spending the weekend in Jasper, has much to say of several bills now pending in the legislature at Montgomery. There has been a bill introduced for a tax levy of four mills, which would raise about S4,000,000 annually for school purposes. Walker county will pay SSO,OOO of the s4,000,o00 if the amendment should carry. The bill provides that the higher institutions shall get half of the money raised by the four mill tax. MT Powell said he was opposed to the bill.
 MT. Powell said the revenue bill was amended to allow all of the gasoline tax to go the the counties of the state in 67 equal parts regard less of the size, population and county this money to be used for road maintenance only.
 Commenting on the gasoline tax Mir Powell asked what would the peoplesof this county say about levy ing an additional gasoline tax of two mills per gallon on gasoline to be used in working and maintaining the roads of the county. This, to- gether with the S1,S00 coming to the county from the state, he said, would give about $25,000 to be used for road work in Walker. This MT. Powell said. will benefit the auto mobile owners more than the two cents in gasoline would in the long run.
 Madison county, he says, is levying 6 S-cent gasoline tax. MT Powell says he was thinking of an amend ment providing for Walker county to vote on the question as to wheth- CT or not this county shall levy a five-miIl tax for road purposes all lowing 6 vote on the question every six years; in other words, the tax could be voted on for a period of six years at a time. This would give Walker about $100,00O additional road money

 Mir. Powell said he would also ln- (roduce a bill to put Walker county officials on a salary There is some objection to the proposed bill ere ating a board of revenue for Walker county. Under this bill. Walker have an all-time man to look after our roads and bridges. The a1f-tlme C man would be elected after the next general election.

Tampa. Fla, March 20. - 1t has
been definitely decided who will catch
Walter johnson the coming season.
When Walter is selected to pitch his
first game the announcer will yell:
For Washington. Johnson will
pitch and Ruel will catch"
Manager Bush has selected Muddy
Ruel as Johnson's partner. Thus
Ruel will become the fourth catcher
to be paired off with the great John
son.
The original battery was johnson
and Street, then came johnson and
Ainsmith, followed by johnson and
l'icinich. The very latest is Johnson
and Ruel.
Ruel dotes on speed. When with
New York he handled the fast-ball
pitchers of the Yankees Ruel will
also be paired with Allan Russell, the
spitballer.
Eddie Charity never liked to catch
johnson, and incidentally has never
done much receiving for spitballers,
so it is certain Ruel will be behind
the bat when either Johnson or Rus
sell works.

Robertson's Task APP
pears To Be Biggest
OF Any In Majors
Excepting Pitchers, He
Has Nothing To Boast
About.
BY Billy Evans

Clearwater, Fla, March 29.-Man-
ager Wilbert Robinson Of the Brook
lyn Nationals appears to have the
biggest task of any of the major
league managers.
With the exception Of his pitching
staff, Robbie hasn't a thing to boast
about. In discussing the situation
with the Brooklyn leader he about
summed UP his situation when he re-
marked:
THE way things now line up my
club doesn't present much of a front.
It's Just good minor league team
The usual number of holdouts have
hampered Robbie from using his full
strength. Zach Wheat is among the
absentees. as is Third Baseman High,
also Jack Fourier secured in the
trade with st. Louis for Hi Myers.
If these three players were on
hand Manager Robinson might again
wear his broad smile. At present Rob-
bic hasn't had much to enthuse over
and the smile has been conspicuously
missing.
Many Rockies in Lineup
When I looked over the Dodgers
in action few of the men in the lineup
were familiar to me. In the game
with the Boston Braves the entire in
field with the exception of Jimmy
Johnston was made up of recruits.
Three youngsters from the South
ern Association, with the addition of
Johnston, comprised the lnheld.
Stewart, with Birmingham last year,
was at second; Mullen with Mobile, at
third, and Schleibner of Little Rock at
first.
Stewart looked right promising
despite the fact that this is his third
chance in the majors. Pittsburgh and
st. Louis of the National League had
him for time. but he never got much
of a chance. Weakness at the bat was

New York, March 29.-Luis Angel
Firpo, South American heavyweight
and conqueror of Bill Brennan, won
the decision over Jim Hubbard of
Buffalo in a four-round exhibition
bout for the benefit of the American
committee for devastated France last
night
Firpo showed much speed and de-
cided improvement in boxing. AL
though the boxers wore eight
gloves, Hibbard, newcomer in the
heavyweight class, was badly battered
at the end of the bout The Argen-
tinian did not uncork the full power
of his punches.
Jack Dritton, former welterweight
champion, and Elmo Flores, Filipino
boxer, went through four rounds OF
milling to a draw.
frankie Genaro, American fly
weight champion won handily from
Bobby Doyle of New York in their
four-rouni exhibition, while Johnny
Dundee, junior lightweight cham
pion,. captured the decision from
Tony Vaccareli of New York in four
frames.
Eight other bouts were held, all
under the direction of Miss Anne
Morgan, chairman of the committee.

Stewart handles himself nicely in

good base runner, provided he can get
on enough TO take advantage of his
speed. He hit an even 800 in the
Southern Association last year. If he
can hit within 80 points of that marx
he should help Brooklyn.

reports. Schleibner went big in the
south, leading the Southern in hitting
with a mark of .554.
As yet the big fellow has not i'm
pressed with his hitting despite his
imposing swat average of last year.
He says that he is late starter.
The records of the Southern Associa-
ton bear out that statement. Up to
July last year Schliebner was hitting
about $50, yet he topped the organ
ization in hitting. He just couldn't be

GUsTAvE sANDBERG

Orlando, Fla, March 20. The
unique record of having been fired by
a minor league club and hired by 4
major league one in the same season
belongs to Gustave Sandberg, new
catcher for the Reds, who is expected
to show well the coming year.
Last year was .Sandberg's fifth In
the International league. He started
out with Toronto last year, but in
June n deal was arranged that would
have sent him to New Orleans in the
Southern league. This was even q
step below the International.
George Stallings of the Rochester
club refused to waive on him, how
ever, and he was used regularly for
that club behind the bat. Pat Moran,
Reds manager, saw Sandy in action
and paid good price for his release.

bad news came for a lot of the Yam

his release to the different minor
league teams of his young players.
After spending more than 100000
for new talent in the last year, the
Yankees have come out with two
pitchers, two outfielders and two
catchers they did not possess before.
OF these six men at least three will
be sent to other clubs, though being
carried with the team at present.
Those Released
Word was sent out this afternoon
that these releases had been arranged

veteran Tom Griffith will be in right.
Gene Bailey, rookie from Houston,
Tex, who filed in for the Boston Red
Sox'a few years back whenF Hooper
was out, looks good, and may start as
regular.
The catching will be done by De-
Berry and Hungling, with Hargreaves,
a recruit, and Taylor, who was with
the Dodgers for time last year but
finished with Memphis, fighting it out
for the third job.
There is no hope for Robbie to
finish in the first division, and the
way the team looks now he may have
his troubles finishing better than
sixth.
Robbie realizes the many handicaps
he is working under, and is hoping his
pitching will help keep him in good
standing. 1t looms up as a big job for
the hurlers.
