II comes pretty straight that President

Notes of the Game
Demont is as foxy as of yore, and
when there was a delay by Wordsworth
in running down the hit through New
ton he Immediately went to second. 1t
looked as if he was out, but Conahan
ruled differently.
The Pelican outfield made hit with
local fans. The men appear fast in the
gardens and strong at the bat
When Jackson hit between Marcan and
Gygli they evidently figured that he
would get a hit anyway, and both refused
to interfere.
Lower was applauded when in the third
inning he whitfield Jackson on three bad
ores. Lower had a prayer behind prac-
tically everyone he threw.
McGilvray made remarkable catch
OF drive to the fence by weimer in
the ninth, and Mcbride robbed Butcher
in the fourth. Jackson made a beau
tiful catch of line hit by Marcan and
thereby prevented run. ss5

decision in one.

MEMPHIS WINS FIRST
ATLANTA THE OTHER

Memphis, May 5.-Allen had the better
OF Fisher in the first game of today s
double-header, and Memphis won from
Atlanta, 3 to /, while in the second game
Fritz was batted freely and the visitors
played snappy ball, winning to 0. In
the opening game all of the runs were
scored toward the end, Fisher weaken
ing and permitting Memphis to pile up
three while one, in the last inning, was
the best Atlanta could do. Brilliant field
ing on the part of Atlanta players and
the opportune hitting of Smith featured
the second game. A one-handed catch by
DeHaven of Whtney's drive, which
looked like a home run, with two on
bases, was the best fielding feature. while
three of the five runs scored by At
larta were results of Smiths batting.
Atlanta protested the first game today
because it was extended over into nine
innings 1t was the contention of the
Atlanta manager that the game should
have ended after the seventh inning, be-
cause of the fact that a double-header
was to be played. 1t is stated that no
specific agreement was made that the
game was to end after the seventh In

RACERS NARROW ESCAPE
John d. Athens Car Crashes Down
Embankment-Hamilt Flight

Atlanta, May 5.-John d. Aitken. one
of Atlantas fastest stock car drivers,
had miraculous escape from injury on
the back stretch Of the Speedway this
afternoon when his National 40, while
going 20 miles an hour, dashed into the
inside fence and over the embankment
turned. The front of the car was smashed
but Aitken and his mechanician, Wilson,
escaped with few scratches. The acci-
dent happened in the forty-ninth mile of
the 200 mile race. when Aitken was about
two miles in the Lad of his nearest COM
petitor and giving promise of lowering
the track record for the distance.
An exciting feature of the late after
noon was the graceful maneuvering of
Charles K Hamilton in atCurtiss biplane
at the time the 20O-niile race was In
progress Hamilton made one fight of
16 minutes, circling the race course re-
peatedly at a mile-a-nl!nute clip. He
brought the crowd to Its feet with his
daring dips in front of the grandstand
and swooping down from a height of 300
feet until he was but few feet above
the racing automobiles on the track, then
quickly mounting to his former height.

With the cries of the roasting brigade
ringing in their ears, the Barons went
through another miserable performance

Lower was on the hill for Birmingham,
and his delivery was exceptionally easy
OF solution. Breitenstein on the other
hand, pitched well. and frightened up only
when it became apparent that the Barons
had an opportunity to count.
In the first inning Brooks was safe on
an error of Marcan, and after Manush
lad famed Newton failed to handle A
grounder off the stick of Weimer. With
third and second occupied jackson hit
lightly between Gygli and Marcan and
neither made an effort to handle the ball
Two scored. In the second Breitenstein s
double over first put Robe across the
plate In the third and fourth the Barons
eyened up by means of McBrides triple
and errors by Robe and Breteinstein in
the third, and hits by Emery and Elliott
in the fourth. Then the Pelcans seeing
the necessity of score, pulled away
from the Barons and were never again
approached
There were no exceptional features to
the game. Tt was long and slow and
miserably played. The fans hammered
from the opening chapter to the dismal
conclusion. Two that got away from
Newton, one which rolled through the
legs of Gygli. and one that caused Mar
can to stand on his ear were morsels
which appeased the appetites of the
knockers. The roasts of the occupants
OF the smoker amounted to a practical
demonstration, and the principal object
of their wrath was Gygl

two bags. Another went through the

Little Rock. Ark, May 5.-President
William Kavanaugh of the Southern

test filed by Atlanta as to the first of
todays games at Memphis that the pro-
test would not be allowed unless the UNI
pire reports that the teams agreed to
play seven innings before the game

1T was agreed last fall by all that
only seven innings should be played in

matter was left to me- l instructed the

than seven innings. The umpires were
