"Wild Bill Baird has been signed for first base. - Proctor will be switched, from third back to his old position at. second, and Biddy Bishop, who has been playing first, will go to third. With Red Rid ings t at shortstop, the Senators should hare one of the strongest infields .in the league. Frisco Edwards -will be back on the, receiving end of Salem's -battery." It was largely through his head work that Salem, made the strong showing she did last year. He has been -missed by the team In the first two games. Burton will be relief oatchr, but because of sis hitting ability, will take the outfield when Edwards is behind the bat. ' . Barham and Russell will (furn ish the artillery? Barham will probably. starU as Fulton is con sidered dangerous. Fulton de- fsatnl llhiKT In itm first trmmo nf the season, but lost last Sunday to the Portland Cycols. Salem lost to the- same team. .

The lower watersheds of the Texas plains tonight were still carrying heavy burdens of flood water from torrential rains that fell , in the last few days. Eleven deaths were reported to night since Wednesday as a result of storms and flood. Flood warn ings for all eastern Texas rivers were issued by the weather bureau today. Several families were forced to flee along streams in that part of the state, seeking safety in trees and on high ground, and hundreds of livestock and domes tic animals were lost in the turbu lent waters. Says American Poetry Takes High Rank Through World CHICAGO. American poetry today is of greater worth than that being produced anywhere in the world, and for the past lg years American, poets have been the most vital force in the art. This is the opinion of Miss Har riett Monroe, editor and founder of the monthly magazine, "Poet ry" who believes that the tremen dous strides of this country to ward world leadership in indus trial and political affairs have brought a natural cultural growth that is reflected in the vigor and freshness of its poets. In 1812, when she began her campaign for the magazine which was to be the organ of poets, she was" fearful of her reception. From Hobart C. Chatfield-Taylor. novelist and historian, she receiv ed tbe idea of the financial scheme which made her magazine possible. He suggested that sb'e get a hundred or more persons to contribute 350 a year for five years, to be used in relieving what he termed the "desperate situa tion of contemporary poetry in America," and headed the list of contributors. t A s Old Clock Repaired With' i Funds Provided by Golfers t LONDON Claimed to be the oldest working time piece in Eng land, the famous old clock of Rye parish 'church has been repaired by the generosity of golfers all over the world. - One of the finest golf courses in England is at Rye, and many Americans who have played there answered an" appeal for funds to restore the old timepiece. It was erected in 1515, the total cost of material and labor being two pounds, fifteen shillings and four pence. The pendulum, which may be" seen swinging within the church, is 20 feet long. Cannon balls are used for weights. Argentine Ant Waging ' War on Domestic Pest rl SACRAMENTO, Cal.-A race war is raging In California and state authorities, far from trying to pacify the. combatants, are add ing to the slaughter byendeavor lng to poison them alt namely, dark-brown . Argentine "ants and their redskin opponents,' the Fire ants. S? j-: Fifteen years ago entomologists predicted the energetic ant even tually would crowd out all other breeds and become sole survivor of the ant race in this state. Late bulletins from the front indicate that while the prophecy has not fully materialized the South Amer ican Insect has most of his rivals on the run. Higher Taxi.

Wine In Hard Fought 14 Inning Contest Glad They're On "Wonder if we can Co anything with these big league bats," two Yankee rookies are asking each other as they look at Babe Ruth's BY NORMAN E Sports Editor of Central Press ASHEVILLE, N. C. April 17. I took the opportunity here to vis it Hughie Jennings, veteran base ball leader and former manager of the Detroit Tigers. Jenn'ngs has been ill here and the baseball world has been interested in his condition. Baseball writers and other cor respondents have made many con jectures as to his condition, the nature of his illness, et cetera. I visited him in person for three reasons: Because of my respect for him as a baseball man. Becafase of my personal friend ship for him. ' And to learn the exact truth about his illness. Jennings is not near death. He is not confined to his bed. He is not prohibited from seeing callers. The famous old member of the Baltimore Orioles is taking a com plete rest under ideal conditions for a lung infection which must be arrested before he can assume ac tive work in any field. This con dition was determined seven weeks ago. He has already gained weight (with the resultant return of vitality), and, barring a slight cough, does not appear ill. He has the old love of battle in his eyes when he talks of conquest on the ball field and only a slight flush of his cheeks betrays the fact that he is not the Jeninngs of old, physically. He divides his waking hours be tween reading the doings of the sport world, answering personal correspondence, taking long after noon naps on his sleeping porch, and brief auto trips through the Carolina hills, which are absolute ly gorgeous at this time. mm l",lll HWMIWWfMW. -.1.)

BROWN Personal and baseball friends visit him daily. Jennings himself lays his condi tion tTthe fact""that he didn't re alize he was "getting a little old er." When his strength first be gan to leave him last year Jen nings called it simply "lack of pep." He remained as active as ever, believing that it was from a cold and would leave him. Last spring. I recall, Jenhing notnty kept the Giant sqnad (he was coach under McGGraw then) mov ing about the infield under his in field hitting, but lived up to the rules of practice himself by cir cvling the field with the players at the close of each workout. He did not realize that he was not recov ering each night the energy burn ed up each day. Mrs. Jennings was the first to worry about his condition. When, more recently, Hughie found it impossible to play 18 holes of golf because of this "lack of pep," she knew that he was not himself. The consultation with physicians wliich ended In his long rest here resulted. I had the pleasure of going out with Ty Cobb, the man who owes to Hughie Jennings much of the former's greatness because of Jenning's bigness of mind in act ing as guide and friend rather than manager and master to the young Georgian when the latter started his climb to fame. Volumes have been written about Cobb's development and the part Jennings may have played In Iti" Much, also, has been written of! the part Cobb played in mold ing the fame that came to Jen nings as pilot, of the Tigers those three glorious campaigns of 1907- Special Matinee for School Children Him There" .)lIHi"""""lirri I PAOFIC COAST Missions 5; innings.

The return Of Jennings to Mc G raw's side as chief aide drew fresh attention! to the greatness of Hughie as a teacher the teacher who taught Cobb, if you will. So that visit to the hospital then was to be the reunion 'of teacher and pijipil ? ... Far from that. It turned out to be, as it should have been, thejreunion of two men who gave the best years of their lives working together to make baseball what1 it is today Jen nings carrying through the years the spirit of faithfulness, loyalty and "fight" on which the game was founded; j Cobb, by his .very dash, brilliancy and dynamic force, revolutionizing the game. And, oh, what a talkfest they had, just Ty and Hughie, who had labored shoulder to shoulder on the field and off with one end in view- to better baseball. Of course Jennings' first inter est was in the Tigers and Cobb ran through si brief sizeup of the team and its j prospects, Jeninngs interposing now and then with points regardjng the. other clubs, which I had just left farther south. j And then baseball in general. And through jthis talk ran a plea on Jennings' jpart to keep in the game the old spirit of competition. No definition there between pupil and maiter, I want to make it clear, "UNLESS In that handclasp at our arrival and departure Cobb tried to "ex press, in a big man's way. the ap preciation he! holds for the man who "let him grow up" to be the greatest of all ball players-1 the superman of perm en. Only 'Jennings and Cobb know about that. CHAPLIN BABE NAMED LOS ANGELES, April 23. The second son of Charles Spencer Chaplin, pictjire comedian, today was named Sydney Earle Chaplin.
