Birmingham over the Queen and Cres-
cent
The song of the hammer has COM
menced. Not in Birmingham, but in other
bergs around the circuit. ard Manager
Otto Jordan is getting the blows with
awful force. When Grants army and
Lees met around Richmond the two be-
came known as the hammer and the
anvil" and. Mr.. Jordan seems destined
to be an anvil for the hammering of the
sporting writer's of the Atlanta dailies.
The following is a sample. emanating
from the typewriter of Grantland Rice OF
the Journal:
Just three weeks from this date Mr..
Fisher and his Nashville delegation cast
anchor at Piedmont for the opening
scrimmage of the league season, When
Charley Smith, if he is right, will face
Art Hermann on the break away.
Meanwhile Jordan's task is reugher
than the one which confronted the re-
nowned Hercules when this gent lit in to
clean up seven in as many days. Her
cues turned the trick, so they say, but
only after a Herculean effort and Jor-
dams job is somewhat tougher, despite
the fact that he has three weeks in
place of one.
Getting right down to cold bleak facts,
the local guard who are destined to look
after Piedmont are hardly up to the form
displayed by rival camps around Dixie
New Orleans and Shreveport are certainly
better fitted out, while Vaughan's Baron
army is in better shape.
I'm outlining this situation, no account
Is taken of the showing against big
league camps, for these early battles
count but little. Last spring Minister'S
people made a CHASTITY display against
their rivals from across the border line
and yet this team landed the banner.
ITO begin with, the local outfield is still
in ragged shape. Only one athlete signed
to look after the outlying picket posts
has reported, and while others are now
filling the vacancies caused by desertion,
baking and other evils in pleasing style,
the fact remains that they are not out

fielders. Archer has been doing fine work
in the sunfield, but the catcher has yet
to weed the germs from his batting eye.
Dexter may be used in one of the va
cancies, but Stafford's illness has drawn
the Columbian into first again, with the
result that he hasn't much of chance
to perfect his play in either JOB.
Meanwhile Shreveport and New Or
leans, with complete line-ups, are devel-
oping inside work and fast team play,
valuable requisites for any first division
squad. Right at the jump another batch
of hard luck has assailed the locals with
Krug injured. Stafford and Dwyer down
with bad colds and both Metcalf and Bur-
mum wearing lame whips.
"Tall hustling may bring the squad
around. but at the best Jordan has his
hands and cap full in the short space yet
left before the call of play"

VANDERBILT WALKS
AWAY WITH GAME
CONTEST At TUSCALOOSA WAS
UNlNTEREsTlNc, AS BOTH THE
TEAMS SEEM TO BE BADLY OUT
OF FORM.

Tuscaloosa, March So--(Special. 1.-The
game of ball this afternoon on the uni
versity campus resulted in a score of
to l in favor of Vanderbilt. The game
was slow one from beginning to end
and although the score was somewhat
ter team. They secured eight hits off of
the Vanderbilt pitcher, while the latter
team only got five out of Eddington, Ala
bama's twirler.
Hard luck and bad throwing lost the
game for the home boys, although their
playing was not otherwise what 1t should
have been. Both teams played like they
were off color, and it is expected that to-
morrow's game will be much more inter
esting and all around a better exhibition.
There was no sensational feature in the
fielding work, and a two-bagger was the
longest hit made.
Probably the best work for Vanderbilt
was done by Travis, while Caffey, the
plucky little shortstop for Alabama,
whose nose was broken in the last series,
did the best all-around work for his team.
The last game will be played here tomor-
row, and the rooters say that Alabama
has fine chance for winning this. San
ders, the young star pitcher that has
lately been developed, will be in the box,
and the boys have great confidence in
him.

BASEBALL GOSSIP

Birmingham and the Reds play again
today The game will be called at
o'clock, and it is probable that Bob Ew
ing, one of the teams pitchers last year,
will be in the box for the visitors and that
one of the Clarks will work for Brming-
ham.
ENCOURAGE by yesterdays victory, Biz
mingham will work hard for another vic
tory this afternoon. Vaughan has his
team in good shape now, and is able to put
up a good fight against the big leaguers.
Maybe Father Vaughan did not have his
batting suit of clothing on yesterday.
Three times he landed on the ball, and
one of the three was for a two Dagger.
The others were singing singles.
Moore and Hennessy are about as fast
on the bases as anything in the Southern
league. The way that Moore stole second
and third yesterday was pretty to see. He
skinned under the Reds players and had
the bag easily both times
Moore Is also improving in his hitting.
He secured a single yesterday, ana in the
previous game he secured three of them,
and that's batting some. Hennessy is also
doing some nice stick work. His hit yes
terday was a beauty. and was timely.
| Rip Ragan had everything yesterday.
| His control was fine. He allowed only one
man to walk. He struck out six of the
Reds, and at times when such playing
was needed.
Minaban WAS evidenflv NOT In bis bast
condition. He has pitched many games
here which were better than the one yes
terday. He has been working in every
game this season. and the Reds had a
hard break with the weather at Jackson
vile. and Minahan has hardly had a
canoe to get his arm in shape. Owing
| to this fact he was wild yesterday, some
thing that nsver happened when he was
in condition.
Minahan has many friends in the city
who were glad to welcome the faxen
haired youth to Baronville again. and he
was applaud III when he entered the box
yesterday. Everyone in Birmingham
wishes him WELL
The division OF the Reds which played
here yesterday, and is to play today is
| composed of the pick of the minor league
players of the country, chosen from. the
form they showed last year. Birmingham
was not entitled to oeat the boys, for they
have played some great ball already this
season. 1t was just natural stick work.
That the Barons will slug the ball this
season is easy to believe when one looks
back at the record IN the practice games.
and especially in yesterdays game.
The knockers have had to take to the
woods now that the team is getting into
condition. and showing form which indi-
Gates q first division team.
In the preliminary games the Barons
have never had anything like a complete
team, but now that they are all coming

show IN the rest of tho practice games,
and It Is being touted all over the circuit
to run In the frst division. II not one. two
