Shelby baseball fans saw a game played here Wednesday afternoon which If played early In the season would have meant full time baseball for Shelby all summer. Which is to say that Wednesday's game gels fans “all het up’’ just as the season is about to close. * Forest City, claiming the state ndependent championship managed o nose out a 4-3 victory over Shcl oy'» Ella mill club, yet it was such 5 contest that boosters of the Ella :lub did not go home disgusted. Three former league players, one ’ home boy, were the big attractions if the nip-and-tuck tilt. They were Pete Fowler, former St. Louis Car linal pitcher, who hurled for Forest City; Roy Brannon, former Sally leaguer, who did the pitching for Ella; and Cline Owens Lee, the Shelby high infieider who played in the Southeastern league before re luming to semi-pro ball. Brannon Good. In the matter of pitching Mr. Brannon, a right-hander with a easing slow ball, bested the widely shown Fowler and his left-hand A BEGINNING FRIDAY EVENING September 3, 5 Any lady accompanied by a Rentleman. will -be admitted FREE.

The Ellas banged out 10 hits off Fowler, a thing that is seldom done to the former big leaguer, and Forest City touched Brannon for only four hits. Forest City won be cause their four safeties, one a homer, were properly bunched with each‘other and,# few ill-timed Shel by errors And Shelby's 10 hits were as widley scattered as a covey of quail at the end of the hunting season. Had Lefty Smith held onto a fly ball in outfield and had May how fielded a hot roller the score might have been 2-2 until extra frames had been played. And it might have been a four-four game had Brannon's long drive to the left field wall been hit an ounce or so harder, enabling it to clear the fence. Regardless of “the might have-beens,-’ it was an affair that kept every fan in the park until Hornsby was the last out in the ninth. Near Perfect Bay. Even though he won it was a worrisome day for Pitcher Fowler. Mr. Brannon had been the only hurler of the year who could rival the reputed king of semi-pro pitch ers. And Brannon did it again Wed nesday only to lose on errors. The two hurlers came from the same neck of the woods down in South Carolina and how they hate each other when pitching for rival teams. Another thing that gave the erst while big leaguer something to per spire about was the bat used by Lee. the former idol of Shelby high fans. Ever since Lee left the Southeastern to play semi-pro ball hereabouts he has been telling other players that Fowler isn't impregnable and can be hit, and then he has been going right into the game to show ’em how it's done. Yesterday was just another one of those days of the type that caused Fowler to say some weeks back that “that kid just can t be struck out."

O’Shields, ^ of Portersville, \ Ala., "my mother gave me the first v' dose of Black X Draught, and I have taken it ever since, when I need X' ed a medicine for & constipation. I i* have u s,e d this Jv remedy all my it married 1 i fe. in raising my children. "I have used Black- « Draught for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and in digestion comes close on constipation. "I have found that the best X way to head off trouble is to 's begin taking Black-Draught © in time. It relieves me of X dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache. © "By getting rid of impuri V ties, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good s' order.

An average of three out of four in the records, and he scored two of Ella's three runs. All Season he has been doing that. When Forest City and Marion played their classic title series, which ended In a dog fall, Lee’s three hits won the open ing game. When Forest City won the ] next day with Fowler pitching it was Lee's hit and run that kept Fowler from scoring a shutout. In the last game, which ended In a draw after 14 innings, it was Lee's three hits that had much to do with keeping Forest City from having a clear, unchallanged claim to the title. If Fowler gets back to the big tent some of the opposing clubs should sign Lee up at once. The big left-hander puts all he has on it when Lee comes up. yet the young ster grins at him and smacks his fast ones all over the lot. Shelby fans got four-bits worth of enter tainment out of that performance Wednesday, “Red” Costner, the bigshouldered Gastonia boy, was responsible for all four of Forest City's runs. Once he pelted the pill over the fence with a runner on, making two tallies, and again he doubled, when an er ror failed to retire the side, ami scored two more. Shelby got five times as many hits as Costner, but Costner’s two blows won. “Cricket” Weathers, the Lattimore athletic, playing the first sack for Ella, let local farts know that anoth er player from the section may go to faster company some of these days. A number of well known players participated in the contest. Frid^j. a brother of the once famous Grier, was on first for Forest City; Cross was on second. Dick McKetthan on short, the heavy-hitting Engle, who should be in professional ball, was on third, and the fleet Bragg. Shorty Branch and Red Costner in .the out field. Grady Harrill, who has tried a couple of times to make the Sally league grade, caught Fowler. Hornsby caught Brannon, Weath ers was on first, Tom Kfcrr on sec ond, Mayhew on short, Lee on third and Wilson, Smith and Whitey Hcavncr composed the outfield.
