Before about 1000 fans. the Barons eVer- lastingly walloped the Philadelphia Ath leties yesterday afternoon. While the game was more or less ragged through out there were moments of brilianey in which both teams figured, and the con test was interesting withal Score s to 1.
 The locals simply outbatted Connie MaeNs boys MolesWortll's players laced out a total of ten hits. while the best the Philadelphians could do was to rap the ball safely five times. All things considered the Barons made an excel lent showing. inasmuch as they have not yet become thoroughly limbered up, and while Maeks team fielded well, the pitch CTS made a bad showing. and to this fact the one-sided nature of the game is at tributable. In the error column the Phil adelphians figured three times, while the Barons registered only twice.
 The Athletics were first to make a mark on the score board. Madigan went out on foul to the catcher. Butcher followed with hot grounder to Emory which the youngster could not handle. and the Athletics landed safely on first on the error. He went to second on an error by MeTigue. and scored when Me- lnnis made beautiful drive to left field for three bases. Houser and Walsh were easy outs on flies to left and center fields respectively. This was the only score the Athletics were able to register. and thereafter the Barons were really never in danger.
 The Barons retaliated in the fourth, and it was here that a dispute arose between Umpire Scott Chestnut and the Athletic players. MeGilvray was first up and he flew out to Mack at second Me Bride, second up. popped a short fly just inside the diamond and Rapp muffed it. allowing the Baron left fielder to go to first Mcbride then stole second and Emory walked. Larsen then laid an easy bunt down the third base line. Rath, realizing Il 1t he would be unable to get it, allowed t to roll, and it was the con- census of opinion that the ball was d foul. However. the umpire called it fair and Larsen went to first, advancing Me Bride and Emory. Elliott then hit to center field for one base. scoring Me- Bride and Emory. Larsen was caught off of third base.
 In the seventh inning the Barons again scored twice. Elliott was hit by the pitcher and took a free pass MeTigue went to first on an error by McInns. Marcan rapped a beauty to right field and Elliott and McTigue crossed the plate. Marcan was forced out a second and Molesworth and Gygli were easy outs.
 In the eighth inning the real pyrotech- nie exhibition was given. Kellogg went completely Up in the air and nine Barons went to the bat in one inning, although only three hits were made. However these three bingles netted four runs and the game was practically ended.
 McGilvray was first up in the eighth. Kellogg walked the big right fielder Me Bride was also walked. Emory hit grounder to Mack and was retired at first Larsen followed with a long hit to right field and McGilvray and Mcbride scored Elliott followed with a clean hit to right field and Larsen was advanced. Both Bauer and Larsen cantered home when McTigue drove the ball almost to the scoreboard in left-eenter field. This ended the run-getting part of the game and practically wound up the contest.
 In the first part of the ninth the Attn letics went out in one. two. three order
 The work of Rath on third base and that of MeInnis at shortstop, both for the Philadelphians, was of a brilliant va riety. Both players fielded perfect game and in several instances they beautifully executed what on first sight seemed im- possible plays.
 The Barons found Kellogg with the ut most ease.
 The official score follows:
