Racing TARS TAKE TOP PERCH FROM ML OLIVE CLUB Win Hard Hitting Seven Frame Affair by Lopsided Score, 11 to 3 Wielding a wicked willow, to which fact both Edwards and Southard, vic timized by Captain Stewart, will bear evidence, the Tars hammered Ihejr way into league leadership yesterday after, noon by lambasting: Mt Olive 11 to 3 under a dazzling eon whose rays wilt and withered as ttiey blazed down on the field. The game itself was a weird affair and played along in connection with the dance of the monkies the sun caHe'l out. it could have terminated either way but for the big; sticks of the home ciub. With the score 11-3 at the end of the seventh the Olivers realized the futility of their purpose and oalled it a day. conceding the win and hurrying to the train. The game began w'ith Lefty Dew op posing Big Edwards and Dew was the first to go. He was not driven from the peak but rather was driven into a hole by his club and was hooked when his control wavered. Boushee, hero cf the league's only no-hit game, relieved Pew and also relieved Edwards, for it was his stinging single to center that untied the count and saw Edward's ro-tirement- Southard. of spltball fame, came in from left field and assumed the pitch ing burden, but was even less effective than Edwards. Realizing the futilitv or trying to use his spitter since the blistering rays of a pitiless sun woul 1 have dried the moisture before any ef fect could have been had. he simniv did his spitterless best, which was not half good enough. The Tars should have won without the necessity of changing pitchers, but then with the mifrcury crowding the top of the tube ball players do queer things. The heat is probably the e nlanatton of Hughle Bell's fifth inning boner, but It was a prize affair ut that. With the bases crowded Burnett thrw 1'ls body in front of a savage smsh down the first base line. The man on third shot for home and" was safa enough. Burnett deflected the ball and promptly recovered it, maki the piy home. The second base oCcupant hpd been digging In the meantime and he was nearing the plate when Burnett cast. At this juncture Bell lost trick of things and simply took the throw wi4h his foot on the base, playing for a force out when he had ample ime to tag. It gummed things and for a time gave the game a bilious appearance, which shortly was lifted un1er pres sure of exceptionally heavy stick wrk. McXeal. Griffith. Trust, Burnett, Bundy. Bell and Boushee claimed stik work honors and their attack, launched or. the wavering Southard in the iv er.th, was of a nature to tickle the crowd immensely because the crowd likes to see Southard get his. Today's game will be played at the Thirteenth and Ann street park with the same admission in effect hat was charged yesterday. Faison, tail enders, will be the goat in this instance and the Tars fully expect to strengthen their position since club members like tt way up there. The box score and summary: Mt. Olive AB. R. H.

Smoke RED DOT TRULY DIFFERENT Distributed by ATLANTIC TOBACCO 815 Nutt Street FARM AFFAIRS TALKED BY MEN AND WOMEN Co-operative Market Thoroughly Discussed at Farmers Convention (By JULE B. WARREN RALEIGH, Aug. 31. Co-operative marketing was given a big place on the program of the farmers and farm women's convention at the state col lege Tuesday. This new plan of mar keting was presented to the conten tion from many different angles by speakers who have been 'actively en gaged in the work of organizing these marketing associations, and the im pression made on the farmers and their women folk was very good. The plan will bet the indorsement of the convention without much opposition, and probably no opposition at all. Co-operative living is the keynote of the success of the modern farmer, these speakers declare, and co-operative marketing- will be the means to co-operative living. If the farmers can market their crops on the co-operative basis, it will not only enable them to get better prices, but it will cut out some of the profits between the pro ducer and the consumer, and will nat urally make the price to the consumer less. All of the day, however, was not spent in consideration of the purely utilitarian side of farm life, and the women heard Mrs. Jane McKimmon, head of the home demonstration de partment, discuss iways and means of beautifying the home at a small cost. Mrs. McKimmon talked "and gave de monstrations of what she was talking about. She showed pictures of the well decorated rooms, illustrations of the proper use of draperies and the re painting of old furniture. Miss Helen Louise Johnson, authority on house hold economics, who has made quite a hit at the convention, talked to "the joint session Tuesday morning on "The Farmer and His Wife-Homemaking," That was followed by a talk by Charles Gillette, well known landscape gard ner, of Richmond, Va., on "How to Beautify the Home at Least Expense." Mn Gillette told of the immense im provement that comes from improving the lawns and the approaches to the farm house, the proper setting for the farm house and the outbuildings and the uses of trees and shrubbery on the farm. ' Feature of the afternoon session was the talk by Dr. Elmer V. McCul lom, of Johns Hopkins university, on the relation of food to health. He said that a great many people, even if they knew the part the-pr.oper food played' in better health, did not abide by their knowledge In the. .preparation of their food. 'We pay mtrcn more attention to the balanced ration for the farm ani mal than we do to properly balanced meals for the family. The convention got back to the ma terial side of farm life at the joint ses sions in he afternoon, when livestock was up for consideration, demonstra tion and discussion. In addition to the general livestock exhibit, consisting of standard bred poultry, cattle and other animals, there was a demonstra tion of slaughtering and cutting ani mals. At 6 o'clock the sheep breeders' association held its barbecue at the fair grounds, and all farmers and their wives had supper there. No supper was served at the college dining hall, which has been furnishing the meals for the farmer folks. The evening was given over entirely to fun.' Follo-tn" the concert by the First infantryregimental band, which has been, .plajdas.on. the campus every night, the remainder of the evening was turned over to the community ser vice clubs of Raleigh, which staged community sings, community plays and other stunts. These were not only given for the entertainment of the del egates 'to - this? convention, but were also demonstrations of the things that can be done in the different commit tees to stir up community interest and spirit, and to bring the people to gether at community centers for the consideration of the various matters that need concerted action.
