conference Of. Southern dry Demo-
Gratis here to perfect plans for re-
vol against the Democratic national
ticket today settled down To the bust
ness of perfecting an organization
for every State below the Mason and
Dixon line.
Under the Craftsmanship of DIR.
Al. j. Barton. Georgia Baptist leader,
the 2S5 registered delegates took the
premise that Gov. Alfred +. Smith
and Democratic National Chairman
John j. Raskob had themselves
shaken one of the cardinal principles
Of the party in urging modification
of the dry law.
Rift on Third Party
The only ripple OF discord in the
meeting came when DIR. e. O. Wat.
son, of Columbia, s. G., and DIR. j. J.
Gentry, of Spartanburg, s. c., walked
out OF the conference after their de-
mand for organization of a third
party was turned down.
They explained that in South Caro-
lima TO vote for the Republican Pres
idential ticket would also mean vot-
ing for the entire State ticket.
Both Doctor Barton and Bishop
James Cannon. jr., Of Richmond,
Va, sponsor of the gathering, ex.
pressed themselves as satisfied with
the attendance and the attitude Of
the delegates.
1.-THE fact that will not support
Al Smith in no way questions my
Democracy, Barton asserted. Our

 and Plainvlle high school scored a

 pitchers duel all the way, Plain
 vile being able to garner but four
 hits on Beardslee. but thre of these
 were punched in the third inning, when all the runs of the contest were scored. Backman struck out l7 oatters in seven innings, while Beardslee retired IS on strikes in [ SIX frames. The local pitcher re- ceived great support from his bat
 tery mate. Muddy" Arcari. and
 this told the story. as it was a catcher's error which started PIain-
 Vile on the way to victory.
 Ine start of the game was held up by rain for an hour and a half. and 1t was 4:30 o'clock before n,ay
 began. For two innings there was no scoring. Plainville made a brief stab in the first inning when Conlin doubled with one down, but he was thrown out stealing. In the third came the winning rally. Cheetham tanned but was safe when Gil, dropped the third strike. Yacobelljs struck out. Cheetham stole second and Arcart drew pass. Con,in scored Cheetham with his second hit or the day. and after Simpson had struck out Tolli and Backman him. selt came through with singles. The rally ended when Tolli was caught at the plate on Gerke's roller. Plain- Ville did not threaten again.
 backman pitched steady game and was in dange only once, that oc- casion being due to an error. He re- ured the side on strikes in the first inning. With one out in the second he hit Madeux and Gerke fumblod q grounder. but George whiffed the next two men. Two more strikeouts came In the third after Backman's only pass. Gill singled in the fourth but died stealing and Backman lahaned TWO more after Cheethau's error. In the last three innings the local pitcher struck out eight men. the only break coming when Gill singled with two down in the sixth. Gill was the only visitor who did no fall before the shoots of the Plainville moundsman. The sum- mary:
