SPLIT SEASON
GONE, TEXAS
RACE TIGHT
CBy the Associated Press)

The realization that this year there
will be no split season with its OPP
pOrtunity to start anew and that a
game won or lost now may have an
important bearing on the ultimate
standing is doubtless big factor re-
sponsible for the closest Texas League
race in years. Every club appears
determined to keep in the running.
Heretofore, if a majority of the
teams got off to a bad start, they
could call meeting in mid-season
and order new deal on the basis of
split schedule. Then they would
all start again on an equal footing.
Last winter, however, the club own
ers outlawed the split and decreed
that straight schedules be played from
then on.
As an evidence Of the c1osencss of
the race, only Fort Worth and Hous-
ton were able to win two consecutive
games over the weekend. Only three
and a half games separate the lead
ing Steers from the cellar Cats.
BIRD BEATS SPORTS.
After registering in the win column
Saturday for the first time since the
opening day. the Cats followed it up
with a 4-to-1 victory over the Sports
Sunday. Red Bird pitched immaculate
ball while his mates clouted Thomp-
son in timely fashion. Palmer, with
two doubles and a single, was the star
with the stick. Wayne Windle was
back in the game after several days
lay off and ran true to his recent
form by making an error. 1t cut
little ice in the result, however. De
troit is sending Joe Hatchett for the
place.
The Steers and Spudders staged .
heavy artillery demonstration at Wich'
tia Falls, the former suffering their
first setback in a week, to 9. Three
home-runs cut a big figure in the re-
suit, Fitzgerald's supplying the win.
ming margin. The Steers were un-
able to do anything with Carl Viii
liams until the seventh when a trio
of runners found their way around.
Three more followed in the eighth
with Riley's homer the propellins
force. The Spudders had previously
punched hits on Estell for half
dozen counters, and Fitzgerald fol-
lowed these up with his home in the
seventh.
OLD CASEY HIMSELF.
Pinch-hitter Conlcy emulated the
mighty Casey with the tying Steer run
on second base in the ninth. Tom
Estell may well lay claim to being
the hard luck twirler Of the Steer
staff. His team has lost three games
and he has been on the firing line
in all Of them. In two Of them, at
least, he hurled creditable ball.
Jim Galloway came to the bat too
many times at Waco and the Beau
mont Exporters swamped the Cubs.
II to 3, handing young Willis HUd-
lin his first defeat Of the season.
Galloway hit two homers, one com
ing with two cushiOns occupied. Poor
fielding helped the Exporters TO n
three-run lead in the first, and they
were never headed. Elmer Hansen,
another promising rookie, went the
route in nice style for the Beaumont
ers and helped his cause along with
three hits.

Liberty Was Cast on Famous Bell in 1858

A MERICA'S great Liberty Bell,
"A hanging mute nov in indie.

has had a romantic past. but there
is no stranger coincidence than the
carving of the inscription on it %
years before that famous call to lib.
erty came in 1916.
proclaim liberty throughout all
the land unto all the inhabitants
thereof" is the inscription that was
east with the bell when it was made
in 1853. The very words then must
have had an air of mystery to the
colonists. for when the bell was cast
there were few, if any, in the land
who were even dreaming of the kind
Of liberty the bell was to proclaim
% years later.
But the inscription was significant
and a prophecy that was fulfilled.
Perhaps the superintendent of the
old state house, Isaac Warner.
Thomas Leech and Edward Warner,
who ordered the bell cast. could tell
why they chose just that Biblical
quotation to be craven on the bell.
Was the dream Of American liberty
then in their hearts?
Begins i'm London.
The story of the Liberty Bell be-
gins in London, where the first bell
was cast in 1852, probably by the
English bell founders, Lester &
Pack.
1t arrived in America some time
before September, 1852. Soon after
the bell was landed and while prepa
rations were being made to hoist it
into the steeple, a temporary scat
fold was erected to test its sound.
OF the testing Isaac Norris wrote
his London agent:
we had the modification to hear
hat it was cracked by the stroke
# the clapper. without any other
-iolence." a
The first bell. therefore, was con.
.emned, and the superintendent at
nee tackled the problem of casting
mother. 1t was first proposed to
eturn the bell to London to be re.
asst. But two American workmen,
in making castings, came
and offered to recast it in
Philadelphia. They were John Pass,
native of Malta, and Charles Stow,
