EXCITING CONTEST

Had Captain Kidd suddenly appeared
In the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium last night
he would have given up all claims for
notoriety as he could never have put
nm such a battle as did the Pirates
before the onslaughts of the Commo-
dores in the hottest game of indoor
baseball ever seen at the association.
1t finally ended, after an thinning
struggle, in victory for Captain PlaW-
tosky's Pirates, score FL. Shot and shell
never made so much noise as the root
ers on the side lines, and as Pitchers
Bostick for the Pirates and Wolf Tor
the Commodores wrapped curves around
Casey's neck, the woods caught on f1re
and the town burned up. 1t was Snort
stop Arnold who raped in the WIN
ming run. Umpire Bruce had his hands
full. but came off uninjured, with con-
rratulations from both teams.
Indoor baseball is holding the boards
IN the amusement line at the associa-
tion lust now. Two teams. made up
of the best players are working out
for the honor of representing the as
sociation in match games, and during
the latter part of the month sched-

afternoon by the score of to o. From
start to finish the game was beautiful
affair with Alabama playing the more
aggressive ball at all times. On several
occasions there were some iashy acts
pulled off by the fielders, the most bril-
liant of them all being McDowelfs taking
of a line drive from off the grass in left
field. 1t was the most spectacular catch
seen on the campus this season. Thoring-
ton also starred for Alabama al the third
corner with six hard assists and a put
out without a bobble Gresham, however

held the opposition helpless at all stages

POLE COMES; SWEDE GOES

Yesterday Birmingham acquired the
services of Harry Covaleski, the big
Pole who, toward the end of the season
of 1908, broke into fame with Philadelphia
by defeating the New York Giants three
times in one week, costing them the
championship of the National league. an
possibly the championship Of the world.
In 1909 Covaleski failed to live up to ex-
pectations. and won but six of sixteen
games. He was then sold to Clark Grif-
fifth of the Cincinnati Reds from whom
Birmingham procured him. He is expect
ed to reach. the Magic City today
The ba seball fan is a peculiar and per-
verse combination. Had Frank landed
Covaleslxi, the man in Birmingham would
have spent an hour vaporizing concern
Ing the ability of the genial Dutch TO
pluck rare plums from the bushes of the
majors. criticising at the same time the
local management for its failure to dc
likewise.
But when Birmingham landed Covaleski
what quoth the grouchy fan?
What is the matter with Covalesk?
What ails him that Wordsworth is able
to fitch him from the National league? He
has evidently lost an arm Or a leg or an
eye?,
True, something "ails' Covaleski. Were
he a Mathewson he would remain in the
big show. And something ''ails' every
man who plays in the Southern and all
other minor organizations otherwise this
would be a league of Browns Evers,
cobbs and Wagners.
Covalesk If we do not miss our guess,
suffers from a lack of control. The days
of the sun which do pot fall in Cincinnati
with the force they display in Birming-
ham, will probably get the big fellow to
going again. AT any rate. he will make
Birmingham an invaluable man.. and the
mana cement Ia to be congratulated and
complimented and thanked that it pro-
cured him. Cincinnati retainssa string to
the Pole. s#%E
When yesterday morning we predicted
the requirement of some rare material
we did not believe that the above an
nouncement would follow SO soon.
And now there is other news to follow.
1t may be tomorrow or next week, but
1t will follow. A dispatch to The Age
Herald this morning from Pittsburg is to
the effect that Rick woodward is looking
over the champions of the world, and the
champions of the cellar Brooklyn
Mr. Woodward is north for the purpose
of getting men with whom to strengthen

pairing to dawn for the Barons. Dismal

.IEFFRIES GET ROUGH
Gives Choyns<i and Armstrong Black
Eyes Then Takes Rest

Ben Lomond Cal, May Fin todays
bouts with Armstrong and Choynski, JEFF
fries presented each of his sparring part-
ners with discolored eye. The retired
champion continued to show the speed
which marked his work yesterday and
gave each of his partners Il grueling
session.
Armstrong came out of the battle with
a severely bruised face, with half inch
square of skin peeled off near the eye.
Landing twice in rapid succession on
Choynskis right eye, Jeffries caused the
optic to change color almost instantly.
When time was called in the final round
Choynsk was bleeding from the mouth.
In view of his showing the big fellow
decided that his days work was done by
noon and he was ready to take things
easy for the remainder of the day.

pulled his hat down over his eyes. and
started for the wild and woody west. He
has been sold to San Antonio, or rather
placed In that city. He Is a rare utility
man, and will shine in the Texas league.
He Is popular here. and his friends wish
him all the success in the world.
Mccain Robinson has never signed a
Birmingham contract, ard is suspended
for that reason. the fact that he neglect
ed to sign his contract ohvlstlrg the me-
cessity of releasing him. Tnig means that
Eventually Robinson will twlrl again be-
meath the shadow of the Stag.

will be but one over and above the play

Some one will have to go, and 1t is
probable that IT will be necessary to re-
lease a high salaried man-as Atlanta did
Bill Bailey
1t is hoped, however, that Birmingham
will not put Manuel on the market In
spite of his poor showing this season, he
Is great pitcher. one who Is capable OF
giving opponents battle every day. 1t
is hoped some diplomatic stunt may be
pulled off which will result in Manuel re-
naming on the payroll. 1t will be q mis-
take, We believe, in view of the ability of
the twirling staff, to let him go.
The teams of the northern circuit, to
date, have won more games in the south
ern division than the teams of the south
This would indicate that the strength
of the league lies above the Mason-Dixon
line of our ina gination. To date, Chat
tanooga, Memphis and Nashville have
broken even with New Orleans Mont
gomery and Birmingham, but Atlanta has
larruped the hide off the Reed Birds.
There is change of faces today. Mem
pris plays in Birmingham. Atlanta in
Montgomery, Chattanooga in Mobile, ana
Nashville in New Orleans.
Along with the Turtles comes Frank
Gygli, released some days ago to Babb's
team. He will no longer care for the
abuse-of the fans. He will no doubt show
to advantage against the Barons. 1t is
hoped that he makes good, for the league
can Ill afford to lose player as clean
as he.
Poor old Montgomery.
With team lighting for the topmost
boueh of the tree of the league. the fans
of the Capital City wont attend the

statement in the Advertiser yesterday,

chise unless the people show more appre-
citation IT we stood as high as the
Climbers we would have to build couple
of new parks instead of one.
Again poor old Montgomery
Montgomery is going to release Derril
Pratt OH account of strained ligament
in his throwing arm.
Pratt is the most capable youngster, in
our opinion, who has broken into the
league in recent years.
His hurt will mend and some team
would profit to grab him for future deliv-
cry He is one of the coming inhelders OF
this section of the country, and he is very
stout at the bat along with his othev
good points. w. f.
