FOSTERS GIANTS WIN GREAT DUEL
 OFF BLACK BARONS
Second Game Of Series At Redwood Field Today At
 3::3O O'Clock

Tn one of the prettiest pitchers duels seen at Ricllwood park this season Bert Daniels of the Black Barons, stood toe-to-toe with T. Will Hams, of the Chicago American Giants, and flung through five in nings of a beautiful baseball pitching exhibition with the Rube Foster ace. The Giants won the game, to 0, but neither of the trio of scores were earned off the Black Baron finger for five errors played nerve wreck ing part In the duel and spilled the beans for the local pitcher He gave the Giants a total of three safe hits for their effort, with the stick but two of these, combined with errors by Geechie and Stratoon, counted for two of the runs while an error by Stratton let the other run slide over the plate.
 The Black Baron swatters found Williams even more puzzling than the Giants found Daniels and ob tained lnly two hits off him. But the Chicago team supported their twirler faultlessly while the local hurler was struggling to emerge from holes into which his teammates threw him with their aggregate sum of five errors during five innings.
 Sellers and Means were the only two Black Baron hitters who could fill the role and they divided the To- calls two hits between them. Demoss and R. Williams collected a single each for the Giants, but Malarcher get ambitious and hit a double.
 The Giants counted in the first in- ming when Gardner was walked and stole second He went to third on Demoss's single and scored on Tor rienttfs sacrifice fly.
 In the third the visitors counted again. Demoss was safe on Geechie' s error, stole second. went to third on Torrientti's long fly tC' center field and scored on Malarchers double.
 The final count came in the fifth. Geechie again let a man go safe on a misplay, this time Gardner. who went to second on Demoss's infield out, stole third and scored when Stratton let roller get through him.
 The two teams play the second game of the series at 3:30 o'clock today at Redwood.
 Local fans will get a chance to see the Black Barons new hurler, Juan Padron, in action today. The newest acquisition to the local teams pitch ing staff is a Cuban who is rated as one of the foremost negro pitchers in the country. The Black Baron management put out quite a good size bunch of money for their star and he is expected to do today what Bert Daniels so nearly did yesterday and Wallop the strong Foster clan.

CAMP BENNING IS WINNER IN FINAL
 POLO GAME HERE
Visitors 0utpIay Locals Dur The Early Part Of The
 Game

The Camp Benning polo team won the final game from the Birmingham team Monday afternoon on Roberts Field by the score of g to 3. Starting with a rush that could not be stem med during the first four periods the soldiers ran the ball from goal to goal with apparently little opposition. However, after the fifth period the Birmingham crew frightened up and soldiers were unable to cross the Magic City players goal. In the last period the Birmingham Sabres' first team went in and played the visitors to a stand still.
 During the earlier periods the line up included local players who have been substituting in the games. They, however, showed up well against the machoine-like play of the veteran combination of soldiers.
 The riding of Captain Mcclure in the early periods was a feature Of the contest while Douglas also starred for the visitors.
 Captain Duncan and Walthour did some stellar playing for the local out fit. The game was extended to eight periods and the best play of the game came in the latter part.

PANTHER GETTING READY FOR FIRST GAME SATURDAY
Jacksonville To Play Method- ists At Redwood Field
 Saturday

Already in the last week of prac- tice before the first game the foot ball team at Birmingham Southern college is causing no little specula- tion among the students as to what will be the outcome of the present series. Possibly never before in the history of the school was the outlook more uncertain on Sunshine Slopes. Although the students have the be- lief that Birmingham Southern will turn out good team this year, there is also prospects that one of the best in the history of the school will bloom forth on Hilltop.
 The uncertainty is ce@tere2 around the backfield. With one of the best backfield coaches in this part of the country, the packers of the Father believe that yet out of the material that he has Coach Douglas R. Wingo will send out a strong offensive ma chine that will mow down the Jack sonville State Normal aggregation next Saturday afternoon at Redwood.
 There is a good bunch of material out for the backfield, but on the aver age 1t is light for a team of the class of Birmingham-So -Southern's. However, there are three or four men who are out contending for berths on the of- fensive machine that may develop into ground gaining stars. Notably among them IS 'ReQ FaTT, WnO mas been shifted from tackle to the back field. Although the shift was looked on with skepticisnI by some of the followers of the fortunes of the Gold en Panther and some believed that Red" was too slow, he disproved this in a backfield race recently on the improvised field on the Tidewater car line by coming out second or third in the race, leaving behind many of the jack rabbit variety of players. If Farr comes through the Partners may have a valuable man in the backfield.
 Curly" Black and Godbee are a pair of youngsters who may also be developed into good ground gathers.
 The line seems to be causing little worry, and Coach Charlie Brown has plenty of material for this depart t1nent

pained, he described graphically how he had been drunken loiterers from the moment he arrived at the La Sale street station. and had noticed they seemed to be especially thick around the city hall.
 'In the heart of your cityw he explained in a shocked tone.
 He compared the Danish system of running up the price of liquor by heavy taxation with the American system of blowing liquor prices sky high by prohibition. Nobody drinks heavily in Denmark, he said.

 Speaking of Finland, the only coun- try out of a dozen or more visited by the Danish savant where he saw as much drunkenness as in America. pr. Weis said:
 Every other shopkeeper has turned bootlegger since prohibition became law there, and no fishing boat is ever used any more for fishing-theyre all running booze, as you so picturesque ly term it."
 The professor said he hadn't sampled any of the current American brands, but admitted the point that after doing so. he might not be so hard on Finland
