 WHAT CLEVEl ANDERS
 THINK OF THE BARONS

Henry P. Edwards, sporting editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer who is here with the team, believes that Birmingham will land one, two, three in the pennant race of the Southern league. He says that the general opinion throughout the south is that the Barons have a team which will finish better than fourth, and that a large majority of baseball think CTS are toutng the team up for first or second place.
 T have seen five of the Southern league teams, and to my thinking the Barons will be in the money without any trouble" said MT. Edwards yesterday. Manager Vaughan has corraled bunch of hitters, as was demonstrated yester- day in the game they won from Cleve land, and the team seems fast in the field.
 Tn Atlanta they think that Brming ham will finish in first, second or third place, and New Orleans seems to have the same opinion. Montgomery shares this opinion, and the papers bf all these cities are expressing themselves freely.
 New Orleans has team the like of. which has never been gotten together in the Southern league, as far as l can find out, but you have some players here who are equal to the Crescent City bunch. We spent a couple of weeks in Atlanta, and of course are pulling for the Georgia town, but next to the Gate City we all want to see the Barons come out on top"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1905-04-07

Manager Larry Lajoie thinks that the Barons have about the fastest bunch Of players that his team has been up against. He said yesterday:
 Yes, Birmingham has a good team, about as fast as any in the league, and l am hoping that you boys finish near the top of the ladder this season. New Or leans is the only team that looks stronger than the Barons.
 Montgomery will have no show al all according to what I have seen and read and Atlanta will have to improve a great deal to get in the first division running The entire Atlanta team had not reported when we were in Atlanta, and therefore I could not judge the team as well as could now, but they will have to show better form.
 You seem to have a team Of hitters. and it is hitting that wins games. l know several of your players of old, and know that they can hit the ball good and hard. I like the looks of several of your men that I have not known before, and they handle themselves well on the field. Harry Vaughan is able to teach any of the youngsters anything about the game, and he should develop several of these young sters into crack-a-Jack Southern league players
 We were beaten yesterday. but it was the umpire more than anything else. He made half a dozen bad decisions, and he needs to learn something about the game before he tries again.
 "Yes. l am believing that the Barons will land way up in tie percentage column this year. l like the town and wish that we could have played this after noon."
