COUPLE OF GAMES UNDER
STAG PILE TOMORROW

The management is preparing to handle
the crowds. Already the tickets to the
reserve seats have been placed on sale.
and they are going at a lively clip for
both games. The field will be roped on
and seats provided for as many as pos
slble. as was done on Fourth of July.
Atlanta is after Birmingham's attend-
ance scalp on Labor Day The Georgia
writer's of the dope were very much cha
grlned when they discovered about July
6 that the Barons had outdrawn them by
several hundred people. The Atlanta pa
pers have been talking for days of the
crowds that will throng the park at
Braggvlle tomorrow and predict that
Birmingham would be laid in a coffin and
buried away under the superior attend
ence that Atlanta will enjoy.
Atlanta may have the biggest attend
ance tomorrow, but there is one thing
that is certain, so certain that it Is like
the handwriting on the wall. If tho
weather is favorable tomorrow, West End
will be taxed to its capacity. and the only
reason that Atlanta will have more peo-
pie win be that its park has the largest
capacity
