New Orleans, June 13-While the fans expected to witness a game this after noon between Hary Vaughn's Barons and the Pelicans of Charlie Frank there was nothing doing.
 At noon today Charlie announced that there would be no game. As is known, today was an off-day, but as there are two postponed games to be played be- tween Birmingham and New Orleans, it was thought that this nice, warm, clear afternon could be advantageously utilized. However, the home manager has the say-so and Frank decided not to play.
 Manager Vaughn was very anxious to play the game. As a matter of fact, the Baron manager declared tonight that he came hurriedly from Shreveport purpose ly to play the game, and his disappoint- ment was great when Frank refused to go upon the field.
 It Is thought here that Frank is anxious to Nly as few games as Is posslnle nh- til his team can be repaired. This be- lief holds, in spite of the fact that postponed game between New Orleans and Montgomery was recently played.
