New Orleans, August 27.-(Special.l .l-Bir- mingham broke even with New Orleans In the doube-header this afternoon, los ing the first game, 3 to 2, through errors, and winning the second, to 0. through Fords effective pitching
 In the first game Clark refused the Bar ons a 'look-in until the third chapter, when Walters hit to center and stole a base. but could not score. Dundon's err TOT gave Downey life in the fourth, but the runner was roped trying to purloin the keystone Douglass walked in the fifth It was the third successive inning In which the first Baron batter had sue ceeded in getting on. Nothing in the way of runs resulted, however.
 Meek, who attempted to catch, but made a dismal failure, succeeded in hitting safely in the sixth but Clark was unhit table thereafter until the ninth. Meek opened this final round by skying to left. Raub rapped single to left, however, and scored on Douglass double. Douglass cantering home on Smiths driving long liner through Mil.
 Feharty, the visiting slabman, was all ways in hot water on account of his lib eralty, but the locals didn't count until the fifth lap was run. Although several Birds had been based on bad ones, Dun- don was the first to get hit his double coming in the fourth. Larsen had dropped Dexter's high infield fly to begin the fourth and Dundon hit after Matthews had skied to right. Nil's walk stuffed the sacks, but when a score seemed certain Huber bobbed up with a roller to Fle- harty and Dexter was dead at the plate. Clark's roller to Douglass ended the in ming.
 The Birds went at it in earnest in the fifth and scored two. Manning walked, Rickert singled, Rohe sacrificed and Man ming scored when Dexter hit a long fly to Raub. Mattys double counted Rick ert easily. Mill counted in the sixth inning, drawing a pass, swiping a sack after the next two men had missed easy flies to the infield. Walters tumble of Manning's merry bounder gave Mill time to tear out for the pan and Meek fum- bled Walters throw so that Nils daring was well rewarded by the third run and the widest enthusiasm among the fans WHO TeBdTQeu three runs d Sdle ledu.
 The second game, however, brought Ford who was in fine form, to the rub Der for Birmingham and he refused the locals a hit until the last half of the seventh when Smith failed to get his lunch hooks on Dexter's long drive to right center and the Pelican big first sacker was credited with two-bagger as a result Dexter got to third but could not score.
 The Barons played good ball behind Ford, fielding faultlessly and fast The best chance the Pelicans had was in the fourth when Manning, first up, was passed, Rickert sacrificed and then Rohe audaciously hit to the pitcher and Man ming was trapped between second and third. The fans perked up a bit when Dexter walked but Ford calmly struck out Matthews, ''the big train" ending the agony. Ford walked Huber in the fifth after two were down, but that was as far as his 1iberalty went.
 Charley Fritz pitched the same brand of big league ball for three innings against the Barons as he did against At lanta in yesterdays second contest which went seven innings without either side being able to count. But the effects of his hard work finally told.
 Fritz refused the visitors a hit for three innings, the Barons going out in one two three style. Henline, the hitting kid,
