[ RAMBLING I Here, There and Yonder I i 3raisrMijta'aaEiais®®a® by the rambler in there ■iiglip-uis, without a doubt, de ■Hie right to represent the IffiHral League against the Tigers American League. Cardinal fans can credit the St. Louis pen -1 nant win on Jerome and Paul Dean— the “Dians” of pitching. And they are not through yet, as the St. Louis management expects them to win four gpmes between them. And the way tliey have been going, they have a gooij chance of satisfying the man agement. If they do come through, watch! out for the braggarts next yea r> - jW>° you remember the Cards’ f shortstop in the last world’s series? Gilbert’s his name—Charlie Gilbert. Since then he lias had a streak of hard luck, which almost ended his career. i He could have picked proses iona! (football as easily as he did baseball— being a star in both, with a perfect shape to fit his six-foot frame. But he took to baseball and delivered the goods for the Cardinals. _ Then came the catastrophe. While hunting during the winter his gun went off accidentally anil hit his leg. Everybody, including the doctors, practically knew his baseball career was over, for a baseball player with out sturdy legs is like a bird with wings cut. Gelbert stuck in there and fought his wounds until they be gan to get better. Late. Wst summer, while visiting in a northern city I talked with him and asked him if he ever expected to play any more major league ball. He said that he expected to play this year. At that time he had to walk with the aid of a cane and his leg appeared to be in bad shape. This spring he reported to the Cardinal camp but the managers did not seem satisfied with his leg and he has had to travel with them as a reserve. But Charlie is still ’fighting his wounds, and people who try to beat odds like that are bound to win in the long run. The Cardinals have had to overcome odds that were al -1 most as bad as Gelbert’s, and even though they have had to fight to the finish and were also under a heavy strain, while the' Tigers have been resting, they stand a good bet to kill the Tigers. But the odds are in De troit’s favor, GO TO IT, BOYS Coach House’s high school eleven is in pretty good shape to tackle the Chowan College squad on the local gridiron Friday af ternoon. The local boys have gotten off to an excellent start by defeating Suffolk IS-0 and Beaufort 14-0 in the two games thus far played. Chowan Col lege is reported to have a very heavy team, but lacking some what in football experience. This will be the first game on home grounds, so here’s hoping a large crowd turns out and helps the boys continue their winning streak. Reports are that Eden to* this year ha 3 a team that will be hard for any high school team in this section to stop. Here's luck to them! LOST DOPE BUCKET Whew! Carolina came through with colors last week-end. Coach Snavely must have an extra good pass defense to halt the Wake For est quarterback, Kitchin. None were completed out of eleven tries and five of those intercepted is a pretty low averse for a passer. Duke also upset the bucket when she defeated the strong V. M. I. team to the tune of 46 to 0, being high scoring team of the South. TOBACCO AND POKER With such happenings I think, well I don’t know what to think. But .1 am considering raising tobacco next year. One of the auctioneers in a tobacco market told me that he sold some of the weed for 95 cents a pound. I thought I had misunder stood him, as he said it in his fast and run-together way. But he said the same thing slaw. This 3ame auctioneer was in a poker game one night last week and with his fast, steady stream of noise he soon had all the money in front of him. The other boys, railroad employees and what-not 3, decided to try his style of playing and began to gabber and talk. Well, between me and you, they never would make good auctioneers—at poker, any way. WHAT ABOUT THE BABE? Wonder what the Great Babe Ruth BAYVIEW BARBER SHOP! ERNEST L. WHITE, Prop. HAfScUT 35c SHAVE 15c MASSAGE 35c SHAMPOO ......35c PROMPT, EFFICIENT SERVICE AT ALL TIMES will do next year? With his play • ing days over, about the only way ! he can attract the public eye is by i appearing as a manager. What . would you think if he was made • manager of the New York Yankees ■ and he would run them through to a world series battle next year? It is , not impossible, you know. Mickey Cochrane did as much for Detroit in one year. | COLORED NEWS | 'V J Rev. F. S. Anderson, pastor of Kedash A. Id. E. Zion Church, Mrs.. E. H.
