GREAT GAME AND BIG CROWD.
These Are the Expectations for Law
renee on Saturday.

11ESe are the Expectations IOE 41t4fF-
renee on Saturday.
The athletic management at Kansas
university is arranging for an immense
crowd at the Kansas Colorado game
next Saturday. The entire south stand
will be reserved in advance. The north
bleaehers and the baseball grandstand
the season ticket holder for general ad-
mission tickets. The reserved seats viii
go on sale on Wednesday. These seats
are just opposite the middle of the
field on the south side and afford an
uninterrupted view of the entire game.
They will be on sale at the check stand
in Fraser hall and at Smiths news de-
pot.
This is the last varsity game on Nc
Cook field this season and it is safe to
predict that it will be witnessed by
every football enthusiast for many
miles around. The railroads have made
a rate of one and one-third fare for the
miles of Lawrence. The low rates will
attract crowds to see what is sure to
be one of the greatest Mississippi val
ley games of the year.
No one not even the coaches can
give the exact lineup of a football team
before the game. On the very last
day Of practice some man not previ-
prowess as to win a place on the
team At the very last moment while
the spectators are listening for the
referees whistle the coach may change
his mind and his battle array for the
day.
AS nearly as It can be predicted in
advance of the game the following is
supremacy on McCook field at Law

ARNOLD CONGRATULATES
THE BIRMINGHAM TEAM

ceived a boom for the presidency of the
league.
II sincerely congratulate you on your
remarkable climb" wired Mr.. Arnold,
land hope that you will continue to win.
Beat them all save Atlanta"
The message was wired yesterday morn
ing and received by President Baugh at
noon. Mr.. Arnold learned that Birming-
ham had reached the top by the morning
papers, and Immediately flashed his COM
pliments. He was en- route to the high
lands, where he goes on a vacation trip.
When last in Birmingham Mr.. Arnold
hoped that Birmingham would win the
pennant If Atlanta failed. There Is no
doubt but that the friendly feeling which
has partially wiped out the old bitter riv-
airy between Birmingham and Atlanta, is
due to the affable manner and kindly in
terest of the popular Atlanta director.
As one of the local sporting writer's re-
marked after his last visit here: Low

wards Atlanta. The Firemen are pretty
good bunch after ALL"

The Runs Made.
The Barons started run getting right
off the whistle. Molesworth first up, was
passed, and Smith put down neat secri-
fee When Montgomery got his scratch
hit over first, Wordsworth advanced to
third. When Montgomery was suisse
quently retired at second, being forced
out by Meeks, Wordsworth came across
the rubber with the first score. From that
inning until the coming of the thirteenth
the Barons were never again able to cross
the home plate.
In the second the score was tied. Atz
was passed to first, and went to second
on a sacrifice. Stratton was walked, also.
Manuel hit to Walters. and that player
fieided to Oyler Thus Stratton was put
out of commission Then Oyler attempted
to complete a double by fielding to first.
1t was then that in some manner, whether
intentional or not, the ball that oyer
threw came in contact with the oody OF
Stratton. This allowed Atz to tally.
The Pelicans threatened to bring across
the winning run several times In the
ninth inning. when Clark walked the first
two up, things took on the "squally. Al
other times. single hit would have won
the game but Clark whenever In nole
managed to work out wonderfully, And
he managed to get in many one, too.
The Game Won.
In the thirteenth inning 1t seemed that
the clouds rolled back little. AT that
time it was brighter than at any other
period during the game
Wordsworth, first up, got his hit 10 cen
ter Smith sacrificed him beautifully ths
hunt of the elongated right fielder fallhg
directly In front of the plate. Then Mont
qomerv hit to first and was safe when

Thrice this season have the wires licked
off congratulations to the president of

When the Barons walked into and hand
ed the tribe of Mique Finn a drubbing on
the first day of this seasons existence,
President William Kavanaugh wired Pres
ident Baugh his compliments and congrat-
ulations.
On the Fourth of July, when thousands
and thousands of Birmingham baseball
fanatics fiocked to West End park, maxi
ing up the largest crowds that ever at
tended a baseball game in the history
of the Southern league, President Kav-
anaugh was profuse in his congratula-

The third congratulation came when the

struggling teams below. The message was

Cause of Defeat.

As plain as the nose on the face is the
cause for the defeat of the visitors. When
Buckley sent Brouthers out of the lot
then he sealed the fate of the Pelicans
After the ejectment of the visiting third
baseman, Pitcher Bretensten was substi-
tuted at first. O'Brien going the ter
tiary corner In the thirteenth, Moles-
worth led off with hit, and from second
to third he went when Breitensten allow
ed Montgomery grounder to get through
him This opened the way for the
squeeze" which worked TO perfection.
There was much controversy, too, con-
corning the single tally that the visitors
made. With one down, and with first and
second occupied, Manuel came to bet. He
hit to Walters. The chance to make a
double and retire the side presented it,
self. Walters fielded perfectly to Oyler,
and Stratton WAS out twenty feet. Oyler's
throw to first, however, was impeded by
contact with STATIONS body The Barons
contended that Stratton should have been
called out for interfering, and the score
Buckley did not so rule, and this occasion
ed the long drawn out struggle.
The game was full of close decisions,
and the umpire was continually settling
wrangles. In the twelfth, Cargo, from
second attempted TO score when the hot
hit of punch Knoll went through the
legs of Walters. He was called out at the
plate by Umpire Buckley when Smith
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1906-07-21
Brilliant Plays.

During the game there occurred several
brilliant plays A throw of Horseshoe"
Smith to the plate, which prevented the
score of Cargo was one of the most appre-
elated efforts. A catch of Dale Gear of
Chick Cargos short fly, and his quick
return to first. nearly catching Rickert
was perhaps the most spectacular. A sin
gle-handed pickup of bunt and light
ming throw on the part of Montgomery
was a piece of brilliant work that did not
go undiscovered. and when Oyler robbed
Jakey Atz of hit in the thirteenth the
applause of the spectators was strenuous
Cargos excellent work at second, the
fielding of Joe Ricxert, and the twirling of
Manuel were the especially pleasing feat
ures of the game from the visitors stand
point.
Each side twice broke into the error
column. The miscues of the Pelicans were
made by the two men who played first
base, while the bad moves of the Barons
are charged to Oyler and to Walters. Oy-
ler's error was simply an error without
need of explanation and Walters was one
of that kind in the scoring of which there
is doubt. A hit could have been recorded
with equally as much justice
