Atlanta, Ga, April 2.-(Special)-
lanta was neatly trimmed by Birmingham
today in the third game of the series.
Score; Birmingham. 4; Atlanta, 1.
The game was all Birmingham after
the fourth inning, when the visitors tied
the score. Clark was presented by
Vaughan and showed excellent form. He
had the locals completely at his mercy
at nearly all points of the game In the
hfth inning he pulled himself out of a
Dad hole and cut Atlanta out of what
seemed an excellent chance to secure a
nice bunch of runs. After Jordan had
gone out from third to first Hoffman was
given his base on balls. RAYMOND hit
safe and was followed by Crozler who
hit safe, filling the bases with only one
man down and B. Smith up. The situ-
alton looked squally for Clark, but he
settled down and forced Smith to make
only scratch infield hit, on which Hoff-
man was retired at the plate Sid Smith
was then retired from second to first
and the only hope of the locals had van
ished
In the fourth inning Clark struck out
three men, retiring Morse. Winters and
Fox, Atlanta's three heaviest hitters, in
order.
Oylers work was again of the spectacu-
lar order, but the whole Birmingham
team played jam up ball
Atlanta secured her only run in the
second. Morse doubled and reached third
on Montgomery's failure to handle Whit
er's bunt. On a squeeze play l1lsey threw
wild, while Winters was caught between
first and second and Morse came home.
Birmingham scored first in the fourth
Montgomery double and Smiths
single. In the fifth Walters got his base
on balls after Smith had hit for two
bases, and both came home on B. Smiths
failure to handle Oyler's line fly to CEN
ter. The final run OF the game was
made In the seventh on base on balls
TO Wordsworth and hit by Montgomery
after Gear had gone out to center field.
