S, A, L. SCHEDULE OUT; SEASON TO OPEN ON MAY 3

Exhibition Game Will be Played at Ball Park Week From Saturday. By the schedule adopted Monday night by the S. A. I managers, the official playing season of the Saturday Afternoon League will open May 3. The league Is planning to play exhibition games one week from this Saturday, probably on Exhibition Park diamond. ' A plan of schedule was announced by Sam S. Vigran and the teams to meet were decided by lot. On May 3, the opening-day of the season, the Syayne-Robinson and Wayne Works Mill meet, in the first game. JenkinsVulcans and Johnson-Frys- I. G. C, play T.he second, and the final game on the opening day's exhibition will be between the Starr and American Seeding Machine company teams. With the weather growing warm and baseball one of the biggest sports of the season, the Saturday Afternoon League managers thought it well to start the playing season early by glvd lng a few exhibition games to get in practice. Exhibition games between the Johnson-Frye-I. G. C, American Seeding Machine company; the Starr l'iano and the Wayne Works, and the Jenkins-Vulcans and the Swayne-Ro'u-inson clubs will be staged Saturday, April 5. Expects Big Season. President Sam S. Vigran stated he expected this season to be the biggest one ever played by the industrial league. With the return of the men from the service, he looked for better ball players from this group, and with the players that developed last year during the season, there would be no reason why the Saturday Afternoon league should not put on baseball exhibitions this year that would appeal to the fans. As the diamond committee could not make a definite report on where the S AT. won lil nnpn the season, some discussion as to where the league ! might play was heard. Prospective diamonds, although not as suitable as the Exhibition park, were lined up. One plan suggested was that the league play on the Easthaven grounds until Earlham college closed, and then obtain Reid Field for the three summer months. Another plan suggested was that permission be obtained from the city to locate a diamond near the light plant In the river botom, making that a permanent Saturday Afternoon League diamond. Meet Again April 7. At the next meeting of the S. A. L. moguls, Monday, April 7, Vlgrau said the ground committee must be ready to make some sort of report, for the league must have overcome all drawA backs by the time the season opens. Special attention was again called to the fact that two fcllver cups would be given this year, one to the winning club of the S. A. L. pennant, and one to the man having the best batting average. Manager "Bud" Henneger of the Johnson-Frye machine announced that the season tickets 500 in. all would be ready for sale next week. President Vigran said that at least $200 of the ticket money would have to be spent in either repairing or making a diamond and buying sporting goods for the league. The best place to play was agreed upon by all the managers to be Exhibition park where less work would have to be done than any place in the city. An attempt will be made to get the park for the exhibition game Saturday, April 5. President Vigran also announced that a team could schedule a game with the Earlham college nine this spring for practice. He was in favor getting into action as early as possible and putting forth every effort to make this season a real exhibition of baseball. The home team will be chosen later by lot. The schedule adopted by the league managers Is as follows: MAY 3 Swayne-Robinson vs. Wayne Works. Jenkins Vulcans vs. I. G. C. Starr vs. A. S. M. MAY 10 Swayne-Robinson vs. Jenkins Vulcans.

With the Majors CINCINNATI The Reds' first day of practice at Waxahachie, Texas, was cut short by a soft southern rain. The squad of 12 men got a short workout in the morning. It developed that three of the new recruit infielders are left hand'rs. Jimmy Smith, one of the recruit.", can turn around against the southpaws, but Rath and Davidson hit from the near side of the plate. Magee, Nick Allen and Raridan smote the bill in mid-season style. Fisher, who has returned from a year's service In the army, took the mound after Regan had had a 13 minute workout. Fisher has lost little by the season's layoff as he pitched 75 games while in the service. Though there is not a single regular in the infield, in practice Monday it looked good with Magee. first; Rath, second; Davidson, third, and Smith, short. Negotiations have been opened for Outfielder High of the New York Americans. LOUISVILLE Both the Louisville and St. Paul Americans club will train for three weeks at Dawson Springs, Ky. They wore expected to start in training Tuesday. MILWAUKEE The Brewers will go to Evansville, April 3, to do their spring training on Bosse field. BOSTON Manager Ed Barrow announced from the training field of the Boston Americans, Tampa, Fla., that Joe Bush, pitcher, had signed a contract and was enroute to the clu'j training grounds.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM

Indiana will have a new baseball league travelling under the name of the Northern Indiana baseball league, as a result of a meeting here Sunday. Charles Carr of Indianapolis was elected president of the league. Twelve clubs will form the league. Peru. Kokomo, . Marion, Logansport, Anderson, Newcastle, Frankfort, Elwood and Wabash with two teams from Indianapolis will be represented. Richmond was not represented. It is planned to open . the season May 1.

FORT WAYNE KAY ENTER NEW LEAGUE FORT WAYNE, Ind., March 25. There is faint chance that Fort Wayne will be included in the Mid-West baseball league, according to word receivedfrom Chicago, where on Sunday a meeting of those interested in the organization of such a league was held. Al R. Tearney was chosen president and Benjamin Bosse, of Evansville, vice-president. The league will consist of Evansville, Terre Haute, Rockford, Blcomington, and Moline, and posibly Fort Wayne and Richmond. However, little interest in league baseball is being taken in Fort Wayne and while there may be some quiet work being done here, the prospects are not 'the least encouraging. GASOLINE OUTPUT IS HEAVY IN U. S. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, March 25. Gasoline production in the United States in 1918 was Eaid today by Van H. Manning, director of the bureau of mines, to have borne out at least in part the statement of a British admiral shortly after the cessation of hostilities that "we floated to victory on a sea of oil." A little less than fifty millions barrels of gasoline was produced in the United States in 1916. Mr. Manning stated while in 1917 the production was increased under the spur of war's necessity to sixty-eight million barrels, an Increase of more than fifty thousand barrels a day. In 1918, when the war had assumed even greater proportions, the production of gasoline was over 85,000,000, an increase for the year of more than 17,000,000 barrels. The daily increase for the year over the record breaking year of 1917, was about 47,000 barrels, or almost as much more as the increase of the previous year. How this country sent an ever Increasing flood of this gasoline to the allies and to friendly countries is seen in the export figures, he stated. In 1916, there Mere 8.473.102 barrels of gasoline sent abroad. In 1917, the exports increased to 9,901,877 barrels, and in 1918 to 13,312.508 barrels, an increase of nearly 14,000 barrels a days more than in 1916. Cross-Country Running High Program This Week Richmond track artists will do cross country running every night this week and next week will start the regular trark work at Reid Field, Earlham. Coach Eckle will have about fifty of his prospective track men out working to ??ain wind to stand the strain of a stiff work-out that will be in store for them commencing next week. To build a strong team that can make a showing in track will require every man to work hard in order that the Richmond team may take some first places. Coach Eckel will have to have a team that will snatch about every third place and a great number of seconds. Departure of Charles Kept Secret at Vienna VIENNA, March 25. Arrangements for the departure of former Emperor Charles for Switzerland were kept secret and the people of this city heard only Monday morning from a short government statement to the press that the monarch and his familv had left and crossed the frontier. It is understood that Charles and his family will stay for the present at the castle of his mother-in-law, the duchess of Parma, near Fourschach.

BY DR. WELLSMAN Gleaning the System of Poisons Life Is not merely to live, but to live well, eat well, digest well, work well,

sleep well and finally and to some people mostessentially to look welL What a glorious condition to attain, and yet how very easy it is if one will , only adopt the morning inside bath. j Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise split ting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul breath, nasty tongue, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the slucies of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the Internal poisonous stagnant matter. A glass of hot water each morning with one-half laxcarin tablet with It, before breakfast, keeps us looking and feeling fit. Everyone, whether ailing, sick, or well, should, each morning before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water, and take one-half or one whole laxcarin with it, to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days Indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire elimentary canal before putting more food Into the stomach. The action of hot water and laxcarin is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While enjoying your breakfast the hot water and the laxcarin is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inude organs. The millions of people who are bothered with constipation billiousness, stomach trouble, rheumatism; others who have sallow skins blood disorders and stickly complexions are urged to get a box of laxcarin, which costs almost nothing, or it desired six boxes which In the majority of cases is enough tor the whole treatment, Is sufficient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal sanitation. "Laxcarin is sold by the Laxcarin Products Co., Dept. E-94, "Pittsburgh, Penna. Price per box one dollar, full treatment six boxes five dollars. Will be sent pos paid upon receipt of cash, money orders or stamps.' Substitutes must be refused. Adv.

PRICES OF SPORTING GOODS MUCH HIGHER

Prices of almost . every class of sporting goods have Increased from 10 to 50 per cent this year, with the exception of baseballs and bats which are selling at the same prices. The chief reason for the increase, advanced by Richmond sporting goods merchants is the added war tax, which recently became effective, and the high cost of material and labor. Since 1915, prices have increased 100 per cent on a majority of articles. Baseballs and bats are selling from 10 cents to 12. the lowest nrice on ! bats being 25 cents. - The biggest increases are in sport Bhoes, catcher's masks, gloves and mitts. Richmond dealers do not expect a decrease in price until the war tax is removed. The following" is a comparison of the year's prices with figures of 1918: Baseballs, 10 cents to $2, in 1919 the same; shoes, $3 to $9, in 1919 $4 to $12; uniforms, $4 to $16.50, in 1919, $1.50 to. $20; chest protectors. $3 to $10, in 1919. $3.30 to $11; catcher's masks, 50 cents to $7.50, in 1919 $1 to $8; baseball gloves, 50 cents to $6. in 1919 $1.10 to $7.50; catcher's mitts. $1 to $12, in 1919 $1.10 to $16; baseball bats, 25 cents to $2, in 1919 the same; golf balls, 50 cents to $1, In 1919 60 cents to $1; wooden golf sticks $2 to $6, in 1919 $2.50 to $6.60; iron golf clubs, $2 to $3.50, in 1919 $2.50 to $4. Boy Scouts Confident Of Victory at Newcastle The Junior basketball team from Boy Scout troop No. 3 is on edge for the basketball toudney and will put up a winning scrap for state honors at Newcastle Friday and Saturday, according to Kenneth Dollins, who is coaching the team. The machinery of the five regulars is working excellently and all the boys are in first class shape for the grind. Last week in practice, the team, playing a squad of basketball players on which were two Richmond high school regular basketball men, defeated that team by twenty points. Dollins has practiced the scout team on several plays that will be disconcerting to any team that has not had previous experience with this type of basketball. This week will be given over to perfecting the plays and keeping an edge on the playing of all the Thin People Should Take Phosphate Nothing Like Plain Bltro-Phosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength, Vigor ' and Nerve Force. . Judging from the countless preparations and treatments which are continually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim i there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists at bitrophosphate, which i3 inexpensive and is sold by Conkey Drug Co. in Richmond, and most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bitro-phosphate quickly produces a welcome transformation in tha appearance; the increase in weight frequently being astonishing. This increase in weight also carries ,witn it a general improvement in tne ; health. Nervousness, sleeplessness '. Tnd lack of energy, which nearly always accompan- excessive thinness, ; soon disappear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. ,' CAUTION: Although bitro-phos- ; phate is unsurpassed for relieving j nervousness, sleeplessness and gen- j eral weakness, it should not, owing j to its remarkable flesh-growing properties, be used by anyone who doe3 not desire to put on flesh.
