' i ; * - Central State League Will 0Pen Sat., April 13th n 1 1 1 1 Hillsboro To Play - Jalong Boys Here ty Opening Day ^ -j Board Of Directors Met In Initial Session Friday Night In Ca-Vel School The board of directors (of the Central State Baseball loop hietj in the first executive session of the year on Friday night in the Ca Vel school. Baxter Mangum, presi dent, was in the chair. The sub mission of a schedule for the sea son and the adoption of the con stitution for the year occupied most of the time. The schedule has not been com pleted but the opening game on April 13 finds Ca-Vel meeting Dui - ham at Durham, Hillsboro engag ing Jalong at Jalong and Oxford playing Henderson at Henderson. The complete schedule will be an nounced at a later date. Some sections of the constitu tion were: Each club will be per mitted to carry a roster of 24 play ers until May 1 when the squads must be cut down to eighteen play ers. After that date no player may be added to the squad without a ten day written notice and then only if he has lived in the vicinity of the town for which he expects to ' play 30 days. No professional play er who has played higher than class D ball during the past two seasons will be eligible for the Central State League after June 1. This ruling was made for the benefit of those play ers who were signed from this lea gue by professional teams. It was contended that it was only fair to allow those who failed to make the grade to return to the clubs they were with in 1934. President Baxter Mangum stated that he was confident this would be a very successful season and that by playing local boys the peo ple will be given plenty of good fast and clean baseball. Each club posted a certified check of $50.00 to guarantee completion of the season. o .ADVERTISE IN THE COURIER. PAY YOUR TELEPHONE BILL BY THE 10TH.

I-' Allensville Boy Has Makings Of Great Ball Player Played Last Year With Ca Vel Where He Hit .410. Enos Slaughter, son of Mr. and Mrs. Zadok Slaughter of this county and a power on the Ca-Vel base ball team of last year, has signed with the Martinsville (Va.) Manu facturers team for this season. Vet eran baseball men who have seen him perform have predicted that he is as fine a batting prospect as will appear among the youngsters who bid for places in the Bi-State League this spring. Late last year Slaughter reported co the fall school conducted by the St. Louis Cardinals in Greensboro, j He made an excellent showing there, consistently peppering the right-field wire with hits. It looks like the job for the Mar tinsville manager this year is to find a good berth for this potential slugger who is listed as an outfielder I but who did not appear so impres sive in the outfield. There are those who have watched him who say that he. should be spotted at second base and left there. It was argued that he could be made into an acceptable enough keystone guardian and that his hitting will overcome any de ficiency he may have on the de fense. Enos played with Ca-Vel last year where he hit a cool .410 and before that he batted .475 with his high school team. The Bi-State League opens April 25 and two days later Slaughter will be twenty years old The Martinsville club is owned by the St. Louis Cardinals. Just at this time he is in training with the Ash eville, N. C. club, also owned by the Cardinals. ? o LET US TO YOUR COMMERCIAL PRINTING THE COURIER RICHLAND DAI RY Phone 1100 VveaV^ne* ?\ec*ric Rartqe \ We're enjoying an Electric Refrigerator" "Our Electric Water Heater is wonderful" i Are You Enjoying Your "No-Extra-Cost" Electricity?
