From Thursday's Daily:
Wlgi th« double games at Bain-
bridge and Moultrie, Yesterday, the
Dixie League cloned for the teason. |
This close was made certain after
Moultrie notified • President Ward
Tuesday Jtot they were ready to quit
after Wednesday’s games. At one
time it eras proposed to advance the
closing from August 13th to July 14
and R was thought this would be
done until the news of the closing
ram* yesterday. Contrary to
pecUtions, no poafreaason scries will
be played between . Moultrie, which j
won the first half, and Bainfaridge,
which led the second half.
Manager Bowen and the Tifton
pUyera came in from Moultrie last
night. The player* were paid off
thia morning, but were not released.
Manager Bowen will hold them un
der contract untilR is known what
arrangements will 1*^ made for a-
nother season. While the last half
of the season was unfortunate for
Tifton the team only winning one
of the eleven gomes played, the at
tendance here compared favorably
with other cities in the circuit.
Summed as a whole, thia it not a
year for baseball, and the Dixie
officials did well in calling the sea !
son off, settling with the players |
and letting them find work else
where. Locally, the Tifton team
will fall about 11.200 behind for the
season. Thia will be made good by
local sobscriptions.
Preaident Ward is of the opin- j
ion that the* club* can reserve their
players and be in shape for next
year, in the event there is
baseball played.
Moultrie, July 4.—Moultrie
>th games with Tifton today mak-
g it three out of four in the final
rie*. The locals
ing game by bunching four hita in
the fifth and seventh innings for
■uns. The visitora scored
e first, but did not threaten
sore, although they outhit the
locals. Rain in the fourth delayed
the game a half h<
called in the seventh inning by
agreement.
Moultrie outhit and outplayed Tif-
■ all the way through the after-
on game, getting a total/of” 12 J ■
hits for three runs. Wolfe ha<f the
isitors eating out of hi* hand until
the ninth, when Tolbert tripled am

North and South from Koniuchy-Brezezany sector, in Galicia.
The Russians ar« attacking with great valor, both with in
fantry and artillery. The Russians are also making raiding
tTrests against the Germans at Volhynia, driving toward Kovel
end Lemberg. Among their prisoners are a number of Turks
which war* rushed to Galicia to aid the Teutons.

American tro<q»s has occupied permanent quarters behind the
Western battle front The other force* will leave the port
