Qaylor la the initial baseball contest of the season Mercer lost to the Lather Williams All-Star segregation of h—shell players Saturday after neon at Central City Park by the score of 4 to 0. The game was a long sad drawn oat affair taking two hoars and twen- ty-ftoe miantes to play the eight and one half innings- .It finally dwindled ^dawa to the steady pitching of the aUbmaen of both sides, and held in check the anxious battle, a total ei eleven hits for the after Mercer deserves credit for holding dawn this team to the tow score that she did. Among the Lather Williams plsysrs won fve all-southern men and added to this were players who throughout the state for ability. Two all-south an pitchers were used to hold the Mover “Tigers” in check. Lather Williams scored three runs ^Jn the third inning and secured their Inst run in the seventh, none of them being earned runs. Swain. Mercer’s new slabman, went like “great guns” and had he /' ' had the proper support would have A, hold the Lather Willems nine to a Kjj&p udnasr score. Henderson at second, and.

The wohle team showed mid-season form It was a big day for the Orange- ead Black batsmen, all of them seem- g to swat the horsehide with ease. Dan Hammack, playing his first game of college basegall, gave his ankle a bod wrench near the begin ning of the contest but remained in the game throughout, the fast out I fielder managing to get on base three times out of five times at the bat, The hitting of Codgell, Mercer’s catcher, was a feature of the game He connected with the pill for a trip le, and two doubles which would easily have gone for home runs but for ground rules. “Smooky"Har per played centerfield well and got two safe hits. Second Baseman Hen derson 'drove out-a triple a double, and a single. Sears, Swenson and Shepherd held down their positions well and came in for their share of the hits.

J Broome The Missionary Extension Commit tee, composed of Mercer ministerial students, is holding mission services in various, parts of Macon ^very Sun day. The work is conducted under the leadership of seven men. J. K. Wil liams, one of the ablest men of the campus, is chairman of the commit tee. The other- members are L. B- Matthews, secretary, Mike Herndon, and O. K. Webb, song leaders. Gow er Latimer has charge of the mission work for the negro settlements. Meetings are held in Central City Park on Sunday afternoon when the crowds gather there for their holiday recreation- Gospel songs are sung and prayers offered, after which one of the young ministers preaches the gospel. Out there in the open with the heavens for a temple the youth ful exhorters earnestly entreat their hearers to turn to the Way of life. Invitatons are given and the interest is shown by the number of hands that go up asking for prayer. The work is carried on by shifts, different members leading and preaching each Sunday. In this way the people hear a new messenger each time, and the services are en livened. Down in the negro settlements the “fellows” go also, and tel of the glad tidings of the Savior to their ciark-skinned brethren. The colored people are said to be especially ap plicative, • t'owding around the y«ig missionaries, anl eagerly list- - o .ng to ever/ word t!ru is uttered Thoiph exceedingly resp?ctful, thev ere willing to join in the singing, and withal Inspire the speakers to t.- eir highest heights of gospel ef fort By carrying <Jn this mission work M -rcer University is realizing in the best .way .possible the aims of her founders and supporters. President Weaver and and the faculty of the school of Christianity feel that-there is no reason why Mercer should not be a radiating center of spiritual power and missionary activity. In fact there is a general feeling that Mtrcer is beginning to fulfill larger sense than ever before the University’s high destiny as a source of Christain influence and leadership. For all have caught the vision thht Mercer can and must hold high the torch of a flaming zeal for the salvation of a lost world.
