Bdrons In Close Game
 Defeat The Philly Team
McGay Started Things in the First Inning by Smashing Out Home Run Drive-McBrde Scored Winning Run in
 the Eighth in Sensational Manner-Large Attendance
BY JACK BETHEA

The Barons, with the assistance of three young fingers of the Philadelphia camp, defeated the Phillies yesterday afternoon, { to 8. A home-run drive by McGilvray in the first and Mcbride scoring from sec ond on a passed ball in the eighth were features of the game. At least 15o0 fans witnessed the exhibition.
 .rne bugs didn't have. to wait long for a chance to vent their enthusiasm. Also large William McGilvray's introduction to the fans this season was most propftious. In the first inning Mowrey, a borrowed outflelder from Philadelphia, singled to left field. Phelan laid down beautiful sacrifice and Mowrey took second, went to third on Moley's inf1eld hit and scored when Mcbride put one through Doolan's legs. Now prepare for the sensation. Large William stepped up and slammed the first ball pitched him to deep left Tor four bags. With one mighty yell the grandstand rose up to greet him as he crossed the rubber, and the large one doffed his lid several times in response to the ovation. A A
 Manager NIolesworth borrowed three PieShCiS dhu ouihSiuci ilohi tfiC I iiiiiieo. No one of the local staff was used. The hurlers for Birmingham were Schlettler, Yates and Schultz The opposing twirlers were Moore Chalmers and Alexander.
 On the whole, the game was very enter taining and the fans were enthusiastic when they left the park. Of course. the playing was not in championship form, but was bang-up. nevertheless. gf
 How Runts Were Made
 The home run of Large William was about the choicest sensation to which the fans were treated. Ellam made several pretty stops.
 Chalmers and Lehr pulled off a pretty play in the fourth Elliott hit a hot one to first base, and it went through Brans- fields legs. Lehr, behind him, scooped up the ball and shot 1t to Chalmers in time to retire Elliott. t sAaWk
 The first inning finished the scoring for the Barons until the last half of the eight, when Mcbride was safe on Lehr's er- TOT. McGilvray, sacrificed ahim to sec end and he came home when MvDonough let one get through him.
 The Phillles' runs came in the seventh and eighth. Bransfieldf hit. a Texas ieaguer over second and ,Doolan tripled

Emery (Birmingham)

Magee and others hustle for swatting hon. ors this season..
 Emery, the Baron, who led the third basemen last season in fielding, is again with Birmingham, although he will try for backstopping position this year. Me- Gilvray, who was the leading base run ner last season. and who was second for hitting honors, is again with Birmingham, and expects to make this his best season. Mcbride, of all the Southern league out flelders, had the best fielding average last season. He made but two errors. and both were made in taking desperate chances He is again with the Barons, and will be stronger. it is believed, this season.

MATHEWSON HAS
 NEW CULVER BALL

Marlin Springs, March 11.-Christy Mathewson, the Giants leading pitcher has new puzzler, called the "quiver' ? It is not different from any other slow ball except that it curves only about an inch and quivers momentarily before it reaches the catcher's hand. Mathewson will not tell how he manipulates the ball. He tried it in the game with the Colts at Marlin Springs today and had every body guessing. The new "quiver" prom ises to make Matty's "fade-away" of last season look like a deuce.

 The question of Sunday baseball versus Sunday highball is one which will seri- ously vex succeeding generations.-Bo (vol viii, page 41S)
 The fans in Birmingham turned out yes terday en masse. The game between the Phillies and the Barons was a practice game, pure and simple. and 1t was known in advance that the Barons would make use of a trio of young Philly
 But the fans turned out.
 The enthusiasm of the Birmingham fan is the theme of song and story through out the league. Last season when Owner Woodward left West End, constructed a magnificent baseball plant and got team together which redeemed the honor of the Magic City. the fans more than met him half way.
 The attendance last season was in ad- vance of 182,0o0. It will be greater this season if the Barons are able to remain in the first division, and If the Birming ham Railway, Light and Power company improves its baseball service.
 The association and the magnates of the street railway company should get together at once. The arrangement whereby the cars ap- proach and leave the park is bad-very bad This was a serious handicap last summer and should be corrected on the jump this year.
 AS the company has advertised the fact that it has acquired new equipment and is constructing innumerable trailers flor the use of women as well as men," it Is hoped that there will be cars enough after each game to accommodate the patrons of the game Yesterday, by the lack of transportation facilities, many people went without ac- commodations. The company may have been unprepared for the large number of people who attended the practice or ex- hibition game in Birmingham.
 The Barons looked pretty good in action yesterday, although, of course, the result of an exhibition game counts for nothing.
 At that, it is better to be on the win ming than the losing side. The game

son will be played here next Satur-
day when the State college team
meets the Aberdeen Normal team.
Aberdeen has a fast team and the
game is by no means a cinch for
Brookings, although the locals should
win. The college team is coming
along we'll under the direction OF
Coach Johnson and the outlook is
excellent for a strong team. The
following Saturday is the big game OF
the year, when the college meets its
old rival from Vermillion. This game
will be played in Brookings and will
be a struggle worth going miles to
see. vermillion defeated Yankton

organizations of the state cooperate
as one body to defend the farmers
interests and to work along the lines
