MAYS RAMS
CLOSES BEST
SEASON

The 1857 football season was a
banner one for the Mays H h
Rams as they enjoyed their best
season since football began at the
South Dade school In 1852. The
rampaging Rams rolled to an
amazing total of 313 points as
they allowed their opponents a
Scant 81 In winning nine out of
ten games thus averaging 81
points game and giving up an
average Of 81 points.
The past season was the Rams
first In the strong Big 8 South
Football Conference and their
record was noteworthy winning
three out Of four games played.
Too much cannot be said in praise
to Head Coach Rufus Tribble,
former Morris Brown star, and
his able assistants for his accom-
plishments in the short span Of
six years.
Any team with such a record
naturally produces outstanding
players and this team Is no ex-
ception; possibly the most out
standing individual performer
diminutive frankie Glenn who
stands only feet, seven inches
and weighs 154 pounds. Glenn
scored 81 touchdowns and six ex-
ira points for total of 1872 points
and racked up 1919 yards to set
a school record which win be
hard to top.
The seasons record:
Mays 6, Carver 7
IS, Pompano o
19-Northwestern 6
20-Dillard 6
50-Carver (Delray) 6
30-Sarasota o
51-Attucks 0
41-Belle Glade 6

SORE ARM ENDS
JOE BLACKS
CAREER

NEW YORK - (ANP)-Fabu-
lous Joe Black has finished with
baseball. A sore arm brought
about the retirement OF the pit
cher who put Brooklyn into a
World Series and earned him the
title Rookie of the Year in 1882.
Blacks last pitching assign
ment was with the Washington
Senators for whom he appeared
in seven games, with a record Of
no wins and one loss last season.
Black had been with the Gin
cinnati Reds who released him
after the Brooklyn team let him
60.
Joe plans to teach school in
Plainfield, N. j.
But he leaves a record in base
ball of which he can be justly
proud. AS a rookie for Brooklyn,
Black had a season record OF 10
wins and two losses, mostly as a
relief pitcher, appearing in SO
games. In the 1852 World Series
against the Yankees, he beat them
the first game, 10 and lost later
game In that series 2-l.
Joe made thousands Of friends
when he was pitching for the then
Brooklyn Dodgers and everyone
of them is pulling for him In his
now career as q pedagogue.

Seeds
Supplies Of all the q major seeds
are shorter this year-about nine
per cent shorter in an overall aver
age
On the other hand, demand pros
poets are strong. with the Soil Bank
a big factor
The total supply Of legume seeds
IS about seven per cent less than
last year. but I6 per cent above the
10 year average.
Grass seed supplies most in de-
mand for soil bank nsage-are 18
per cent shorter than last year, and
II per cent below the average.
So it books like a See-saW affair
II probably will pay to buy grass
seeds as soon as you know what
you'll need. Shortage plus stronger
demand makes any price decline
unlikely The legume situation is
not apt TO be IS tight.
A factor you'll want to Keep in
mind: If prices seem to be too high.
farmer resistance may take effect
later in the selling season, bringing
the price down
/ The best rule-of-thumb we can
offer is this review of prices 1t
gives the average retail price of the
principal seeds last spring, and the
( average increase in prices paid to
farmers, over what they received III
1855 Add them together, and you
4 should have a reasonable basis for
figuring the approximate price Of
the same seeds this year. They
run from five per cent to 40 per
cent higher than last years prices
