Want the Los Angeles in Commercial Navigation. (Bv the AMaociatert PreaaO Swampseott. Muss., An#. H.—A re quest for the use of the Los Angeles, navy airship, in commercial aviation, was presented to President Coolidge today by John Hays Hammond, Jr. | IN AND ABOUT THE CITY J GIBSON TAKES SECOND GAME OF SERIES FROM KANNAPOLIS Local Baiters Recover From Slump and Pound Culp.—Pitching of Simmons 1 Feature*. | Gibson took a toe hold on the series yesterday by taking the second game from the enemy, Kannapolis, by a score of ■ 5-3. The contest was well played with the ' pitching of Simmons as the feature. This ■ collegian was in rare form. His balls had everything that goes toward making 1 his opponent bat pop flies or weak grounders. After being hit hard in the first nud third innings, he allowed his opponents only three hits in the remain- I ing six innings. The return of Gibson’s batting eye was also a feature. Culp's underhand slants being converted into eleven pre'tty hits. 1 In "base knocking"—as the vernacular of the fans has it—Gibson’s base knockers were just the stuff. j Leading in this offense was A1 John son. State College football and baseball ■ luminary, who secured in four times to • the bat two singles and a double. Har rill. another State man. gets credit for a perfect day. with two hits in two trips. On his other hats, he was hit once ami pul down a sacrifice another time. | Dick. Miller was the only one of the’ Kannapolis tribe who was very successful with the offerings of Simmons. Though lie is a player of the day of long ago, he showed up well in company with the youngsters of a more recent model. Twice lie slammed out doubles and had Simmons not knocked down another line drive, he would have had another extra bagger. | Gates furnished the real thrill of the afternoon when lie put the only four ply knock of the contest. Still smart-1 ing under the sting of the way Kannapo- [ iis batted him in last Saturday’s final ■ inning, he swung savagely at the ball the ! first two times lie was up. He is. it should be explained, a base knocker who can hit from either side of the plate, j Twice he tried it right handed with un satisfactory results. A change was necessary, decided Alt'. Gates, so he re-1 versed to left hand. On the first two or three balls, the change appeared to 1 . have done littie good but Culp threw a high one which Gates meat fairly and ent it over lef tfield fence. The game slarteil with both teams] scoring runs in the first inning. For Gibson. Haynes singled and was sacri ficed to second by Hahn. Bclk singled scoring Haytics and A1 Johnson doubled ■coring Belk. The side was retired when Hatley struck out. Kannapolis’ two tallies were made when McLean and Miller doubled successively, followed by Fink, who singled. This knotted the' ci unt at 2-2. Kannapolis then went ahead in the third when a single by Russell Lee Was converted into a run on Dick Miller’s double. The lead was retained until ! tile sixth when Gibson made a score. , A! Johnson singled and Hatley singled. Johnson scored on an error by Johnny i Johnson. The side was retired with out further scoring. Gates’ home run in the seventh gave 1 Gibson the lead and the last tally was j made in the eighth. Harrill led off with j a single, was sacrificial to second and j scored when Haynes doubled into left ! field. Haynes was called out when : Saunders hobbled a smart grounder which , Halm laid down and in recovering it was directly in the path of the rapid moving shortstop who knocked him down. em pire Lauglilin ruled that Haynes was out and the side was retired.

Would Want to Operate the Line, j | “If the public service company can’t i make money out of the thing, how does i the city hope to?” That seems to be the general opinion 1 here relative to the city of Concord tak ing over the street ear system. The North Carolina Public Serviee Company j is willing to lease the system 4# the city for $1 a year, the aldermen have been advised. “But why waste the dollar?" say those persons who see nothing but a liability in the property of the street railway. ; "The public serviee company knows some thing aliotit running a street car and it lost money: how could we expect to do otherwise?" The public, serviee company wants to discontinue the schedule here, this be- I ing one of the proposals made to the aldermen. It is costing tile company about $19.50 a day to operate the line and revenues average about sl2 a day. The company has stood the loss about as , long as it cares to, therefore the generous offer to let the city have the property for $1 a year. I Os course, the aldermen have not taken 'over the property yet: in fact they have just started an investigation to see what is the best thing to do. However, to hear some of the talk on the street one would think the matter was settled and that the city had a white elephant on its hands for life. Mayor C. H. Barrier lias appointed a committee to study the problem and its report probably will de- i j termine the city's action: certainly noth ing .will be done in the matter until the or mmittee makes its report. L MR. I. I. DAVIS. In a special sorie* of articles being inn in the Morgantcn News-Herald un der the title. "Who's Who in Morgan ton," appears the following concerning I. I. Davis, father of I. 1. Davis, Jr., of Concord: i Gentleness, kindness, consideration— these qualities stand out in the life of ' the subject of this sketch, which makes no attempt at being biographical but is only a recognition of the worth and fit | ness of the man. Mr. 1. I. Davis is the patriarch of Morganton merchants, a man who lias had a big part in tile civic and business life of the town since the days just fol lowing ihe Civil War when he and his brother.-Ahe late It. I’. Davis, opened a small stock' of general merchandise and east their lots as merchants here. As a young man. just starting out in life, he came to Morganton in 1867 from ■Cleveland county to clerk in a store op erated by the late R. A. Cobb, and in a short time sent back for his younger . brother and Davis Bros, opened a store ■of their own. Since that time the name j "Davis" has been connected in a large ■ way with merchandising in Monrganton, I and has ever been synenomous with hon jc-ty antr fair dealing. I The Davis brothers built the first brick I store ever erected in Morganton. Mr. I Davis has been connected with many of | the business ec;erprises that have conic | into the town during the last half cen -1 fury, For years lie has been a director ! in the First National Bank. I He has been for years one of the most active and loyal members of the Mor ganton Methodist Church and his life lias literally "abounded iu good works." Tablet to tire Late Rev. Dr. 1). A. I'eniek. The following copies from the Presby terian of the Smith will be of interest to many Cabarrus people: At New Monmouth Chiioh, a few miles from Lexington. Va.. on next Sunday a tablet will ls‘ unveiled to the memory of Rev. Dr. I>. A. Penick. who was pastor of that church for many years. It is to he a homecoming day for the members of the church who arc living elsewhere, and it is expected that a large number of them will be present. Dr. Penick was born in Cabarrus coun ty. North Carolina, on April 15. 1934. He was educated at Davidson and Hamp den-Sidney colleges and at Union Theo logical Seminary, from which he gradu ated in 1857. He was licensed by the j Concord Presbytery on April 18. 1857, I and was ordained by the same Presby tery oil January 28. 1858. He became -fated supply of Poplar Tent Church in I that Presbytery in 1857 and the next year became its pastor, which pastorate he held until 1873. In 1874 he accepted a call to the New Monmouth Church, and remained its pastor until 1907, when he was made pastor emeritus. lie re tained this connection until his death on Augiist22. 1922. Dr. Penick was a r"i of ability, a | faithful preacher of t|. gospel, a de voted pastor, a true friend, a man of education and culture, a loyal servant of God. a Christian, who showed his faith ' by his works.
