TEXACOS TAKE
MEASURE OF
SOLDIER BOYS
Win Third And Final Game Of
The Series By The Score
Thirty-eight Thirty-five
ENTERTAINED ON BOARD
STEAMER HARRINGTON

In the third and final game of the
Texaco-Guard Championship basket
ball series, the Texacos defeated the
mighty Guard quintet, 1886.
That these two teams are evenly
matched is evidenced by the close
scores of the three game series. The
Texacos won the first game by a
margin of three points and the Guards
the second, by six points. In all
three games the outcome was in
doubt until the final minute of play.
In the game on Wednesday night,
coaches Elmer Birmingham, of the
Soldiers, and Mac Littleton, of the
Texaco cagers, employed different
strategy from what they did in the
previous games. The first two games
were marked by numerous substitu-
tions whereas in the final game the
starting line-ups played the entire
contest.
At the half, the Texacos led 1912
and in the third quarter they increas-
ed their lead to twelve points and it
appeared that the gasoline boys were
going to increase this margin as the
game progressed. However in the
final quarter, trailing by 10 points,
with two and one half minutes re-
naming of play, the Guard took adj
vantage of the Texacos freezing tao
tics and tailed seven points while
keeping the Texaco lads scoreless to
bring them within three points of VIC
tory when the gun sounded ending
the game.
In the third quarter, it appeared
that Paul Merrill and Norman Allen,
of the Texacos, were going out of the
game >by the way of the foul route,
inasmuch as both of these players had
three fouls chalked up against them.
They managed to play cautious ball
the remainder of the game. Had eth

from the
Democrats Pen

Well, Sir, I don't want to stir up
the dry bones; Pm willing to "let the
dead past bury it's dead; but couldn't
help seeing in the papers that the
Towson jail; in Baltimore county;
-Chesapeakian Maryland; the
section that is not the Eastern Shore;
where the negroes implicated in the
Pilchard horror were carried for safe
ty;-I saw that the aforementioned
Towson Jail was surrounded by
guard in the day the two suspects
were arraigned and who said they
were not guilty, and the duty OF
whose counsel is to prove they are
not the ones who did the bad deed.
When I read that, blest if I didn't
look out my office window to see if
there was a guard around my build
ing, but soon saw the spaces didn't
reveal any motor-cycled cops in uni
form; and, of course, breathed more
freely, and my heart descended from
my throat down to it's proper and
natural location.
But why the guard? I thought
those Western Shore denizens were
so civilized, so Menckenized, so legal
lied, so imbued with a sense of JUS
tice to all and favors to none, that
no thought of violence would ever
have occurred to the Towson Court;
but, rather, the officers would have
"strawed" figurative flowers in the
way of the prisoners, and assured
them of safe passage from Jail to
court house, and exc passage back

Eastern Shore savages had dug them
selves in somewhere; and, at a given
signal, would go over the top, and
there, on the field of battle, would do
and die to save the honor of woman
hood for the world. Or, did they
take into consideration the fact that
human nature is pretty much the
same all over the world; and that
Towson, the haven &C safety, might
not be so safe, after all. Perhaps,
thy decided that even Baltimore coun-
tians might have heard of law not
on the statute books, and might know
how to enforce said law. Anyhow

the worcester County people,, were
determined that there should be nc

HIGH SCHOOL
PRINCIPAL TALKS
TO THE LIONS
Club Receives New Members
Into Its Ranks. MessrS.
Blades, Dryden, Smith

Among the guests present at the
regular meeting Of the Lions Club on
Tuesday, March 10, were Messrs.
Poke. Whalen, manager of the Po-
comoke Baseball Club, Mr.. Fred Her
ing the business manager, and Mr..
Verlin Krabill.
Poke Whalen's talk on his thirty
years experience in organized base
ball, his experiences on the Eastern
Shore and numerous anecdotes, was
well received. He promised us a
ball team this year, and ask
ed that the fans do their part in en-
couraging the players at all times,
that most of the players
are young men who are trying to gain
a foothold in organized ball.
Mr.. Krabill, in a message, that was
extremely timely and appropriate,
spoke on the advantages that we, as
citizens of the United States, enjoy,
and mentioned the heritage that we
have from our forefathers in the Bill
of Rights. We should not only bring
ourselves to a full appreciation of
this heritage, but make every effort
to pass this appreciation along to the
coming generations.
New members recently accepted into
the Lions Club include Mervin Blades,
Clifford Dryden and Robert A. Smith.
Mr.. Smith is the newly-appointed
of the local F. w. Woolworth
store.

POCOMOKE BALL
PARK IS NOW
LOOKING FINE
Many improvements Taking
Place Preparing For The
Opening In May
LIST OF MORE PLAYERS
TO BE GIVEN A TRIAL

Pocomoke fans who visit the local
ball park these days will note some
very marked changes and improve
ments in the place.
Notably among these is the new To-.
cation of the concession stand, which,
incidentally, will be run by the man
agement this year. This stand is built
on the outside of the grounds and a.
long side of the front entrance gate.
A fence will lead from the corner of
the stand, run parallel with the park
fence, for about IL feet and then turn
at right angles to the park enclosure,
thus shutting in the former entrance
gate. A gate will be in the stand
fence, leading into the grounds. This
arrangement will shut out the view
obtained through the entrance gate of
last year.
At the lower outside end of the
field, posts have been settled in the
ground and these obstacles will pre-
vent parking of autos, trucks, &c, a.
gainst the front fence to view the
games gratis. Props to brace the left
field fence on the outside also prevent
driving around the grounds. It will,
hereafter be rather difficult to see
what's going on inside unless the
wherewithal is passed up at the box
office.
Inside the grounds, the diamond has,
been put in great shape and will be-
ready for the opening "play balP'
signal. Paint has been used in great
quantities to improve the looks OF
things. A brick walk is at the en-
trance gates. Additional seats have
been erected. Showers and toilets
have been installed. Drains will be
constructed in the players boxes and
everything will be done to improve
the comfort of the fans and contribute
to their pleasure.
