GOLFERS BEGIN B|G TOURNAMENT Probable That Start Will Be In
 Rain
KNOWLES THE FAVORITE
Begins at Scratch While Lawrence Eustis Is Given Handicap of One. Sixty of South's
 Best.

Memphis. Tenn, May 24-About 50 of the best golfers in the south will start in the s6-hole qualifying round of the eighth annual championship tournament of the Southern Golf association over the superb links of the Memphis Country club tomorrow morning It has rained ntermittently all day and the weather forecasts say the golfers will be forced to tramp over the links in the rain to- morrow.
 Only those who have handicaps of ten or less will be allowed to start in the qualifying round for the championship trophy. The handicaps of the Southern Golf association will rule in determining the eligibility of the championship and those eligible for the championship flight who fail to qualify will be allowed to start in the qualifying round for the sec ond, third. fourth and fifth flights, which are open to all members of the Southern Golf association.
 The plan of elimination, which will be tried out has already met with the ap- proval of the majority of the southern golfers, who are more than willing that only the star players should have a go at the championship. while the lesser lights content themselves with the other cups.
 Neither Nelson Whitney of New Or leans, the winner of last years tourna- ment, nor H. Chandler Egan, formerly of Louisville, and now of Chicago, the runner-up last season. will compete this year. With these two stars eliminated the local enthusiasts predict that tha honors will lie between Ellis Knowles, the former Yale star and eastern inter collegiate champion of 1907, and Law renee Eustis of New Orleans. Knowles who halls from Pensacola, Fla, is rated at scratch by the Southern Golf asso- citation, and Rustic given a handicap of one.

BY JOHN L. SULLIVAN.

New Orleans May 24-(Speeial.) Dick son had New Orleans at his mercy to- day. the sturdy little Birmingham pitcher allowing the Pelicans but one measly bingle scratch hit by Fritz, who op- posed him in the box, by second base in the sixth inning, with the result that Bir- mingham won 10 O.
 The game was witnessed by a large Monday crowd, which was sorely disap- pointed at the outcome, as it was figured that following the locals easy victory over Nashville on Sunday and Birming- hams defeats by Mobile that the Barons would be easy picking, but in this the local people were badly mistaken, for the Barons stacked up stronger today than any team that has been here.
 Birmingham got her first two runs of the game in the first inning. Molesworth first up bunted to Fritz and on a low throw by the latter was safe at first El- lam bunted to Fritz, who threw Moles- worth out al second. MeGilvray walked but Raftis hit high one to Huelsman, which was nabbed near the fence. Gygh singled to center field, but Reagan let the ball roll past him and Ellam and Me Csilvray scored while Gygli went to sec ond. Henine was out from Lindsay to Dexter.
 Birmingham did not do thing with the delivery of Fritz except in the fourth and fifth innings. when Gygli got a single to right field and Dickson singled by sec ond Neither of these hits counted for anything. as both men died on bases. But in tie ninth Gygli led off with sin gle, his third in the game. He stole sec- ond few moments later. It was thought ne would remain there. as Henline and Kane were easy outs but Bowen singled past second and Gygli scored. It was lucky that this hit was secured, as Dick son struck out.
 At no time in the game did New Or leans have a look-in. the Barons playing remarkable baseball all the way through, and it is safe to predict that if they play like they did today they will annex the series of three games.

TESTING SUNDAY LAWS.
Manager of Indianapolis Team Ar
 ragned For Alleged Violation.

Indianapolis, May 24-An affidavit today was filed in the circuit court by Frank G. McCrea an insurance man, against Charles c. Car, manager of the Indianapolis Baseball club, charg- ing that he was engaged in his usual vocation, that of a professional base ball player yesterday, that his work was not for charity, nor necessary, and that it was against the peace and dig nity of the state of Indiana.
 This action is the beginning of a test of the constitutionality of the recent act permitting Sunday baseball in In diana.
 MT. Carr was formally placed under arrest this afternoon and gave bond. It was made public that John II. Holiday, president of the Union Trust company, is one of the prosecutors of Carr.

Dickson Masters Proud Birds

was there no evidence introduced in the Evers case to show that he had been granted permission to remain away from the team, but it was shown that he was holding out for a raise in salary, a question which was not settled until after he had reported to Manager Chance in this city the latter part of April.
 "Storke, on the other hand, was given permission by the Pttsburg club to complete his course of study at Har- yard, with the understanding that if his services were needed he would come on and help out the team. This he did last week, when Abstein was i'll. Storke accepted terms with the Pitts burg club last December, so there was nothing against him.
 q don't know to what extent Evers is objecting to the decision of the na- tional commission. I do know, however, that so far as we are concerned, his fine of s100 will not be remitted."
 Pitcher Robinson of the Reds is in the same position as Storke, and there is no doubt that he will be reinstated without a fine.

New York, May 24.-Jim Corbett made the following statement today:
 There is such a thing as getting too much of a good thing, even in cham pionship ring talk. The public is begin ming to tire of the Johnson-Jeffries con- troversy, and unless the statements come from the lips of the big smoke or are uttered by Jeff while he is not feeling any too well, the public passes them up like hot coas.
 "The climax of the arguments between the two is soon due, and I wouldn't be surprised to hear of Johnson calling the negotiations off. And, furthermore, John son is mighty sorry that he ever signed to meet &etchel. If he decides to let that 5000 forfeit go, no one will be very much surprised.

at the Burns-Johnson fight pictures, that he would beat the negro. And one can hardly blame Ketchel for making the statement after looking at the reproduc- tion
 Certainly Ketchel realizes that he would have a much better show than Burns Judging from what I have seen of Ketchel and from the actions of John son in the pictures, I am almost ready to say that the contest between these men will be a toss-up if it ever material izes.
 Burns hit Johnson often enough in the fight last December, but he didn't seem to have any more steam behind his blows than an invalid. Johnson was never jolt ed hard a single time. Ketchel will be a different customer to deal with, and if he hits Johnson as many times as Burns did they will have to move the big fel- low out of the ring fin pieces or on a stretcher."

THE CHAMPIONS
 ARE STILL WINNING

Tuscaloosa, May 24.-(Special.)-In game cut short by rain at the middle of the sixth inning, Alabama took the first contest of the commencement se- ries with Union college of Jackson, Tenn, the score being to 0. Owing to the threatening clouds the game was less interesting than it otherwise would have been, even though the playing of the visitors was ragged Alabama put up fast game in the field and at the bat.
 Merrill Pratt, Alabamas sidewheeler, was sent to the slab and did excellent work. To his pitching laurels he added a beautiful three-base drive to center field. Boone of Union pitched fairly and would, with tolerable support have held his opponents down much better. Score by innings: R.H. E.
