SOUTHEASTERN
STANDING

Decatur-Anniston game postponed,
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-07-14

B. Campbell used his southpaw and i his peculiar movement inssuch excellent style yesterday afternoon that tht Barons from the jump to the conclu- sion were helpless before him. Mobile won the first game of the series, therefore, 20. Opposed to Camp bell was Speer, also portwheeler. and Speer had but one had inning. In that little round, however, the Gulls launch ed a single, a couple of doubles and a triple, scoring two runs, and win ming the game
 The game was finely pitched and finely played It abounded in fast plays and spectacular plays. It was concluded in the short space of an hour and twentyf five minutes. and even though the Barons were trimmed local fans had little of which to enter com plaint
 The star fielder of the game was Bayless, who aScepted seven chances, several of them difficult, in center field. It is barely possible that but for a catch of his in the eighth inning the Barons would have tied the score or won the game. Elliott, first up, in that round, had reached the initial corner through an error of Myers. Ellam then pumped one a mile a minute to the scoreboard. Bayless, sprinting like the wind nailed the ball as 1t neared the ground. Had it landed safely Elliott would have scored and Ellam would have stood on third with nobody down.
 In the second inning the Barons had a chance after two were down. Elliott singled to left and Ellam was safe on an error of Maag. Speer then cut one through Rohe, and Elliott, attempting to score, was thrown out at the plate by Mayes.
 In the second the Gulls did their bloody work and did 1t exceptionally well. In that round it seemed that Speer had as much stuff as he had pre- viously displayed. But everything he offered was not only smashed but smashed hard. Swacina opened with. a double to left Myers followed with a triple to the same territory, Swacina scoring. Rohe, following, punched a double to center and Myers counted. On Mayes' bunt Rohe was forced at third. Then Dunn singled through the infeld. Campbell famed and Maag flied to Yantz
 In the sixth the visitors had another chance. Bayless opened with a bunt which he beat out and on which he reached second following Marcan's CT TOT. On Miller's out he went to third. MeGilvray, however, handled the smash of Swacina and the fly of Myers.
 The game was played under dark and threatening cloud and the final innings in a drenching rain. In spite of unfavorable weather conditions the crowd was large and enthusiastic.
 Campbell, a former Baron, was given rousing reception.

Empires Cause a Problem

Anniston, July 13.-tSpecial. )-The matter of supplying umpires for the Southeastern league has developed into one of the most serious problems which President ONeill has to face. During the season Bob Alexander has quit in despair Wood has mysteriously disap- peared and Keeling. formerly a De- catur player, has taken his place. Du- vaney, Burke and Sorber have been canned and 1t Is now announced that Schmidt, who officiated here this week, has decided to throw up his job after less than months experience He gave poor satisfaction wherever he went and before leaving he assessed enough fines to make himself remembered for a long time.
 In letter to President Mitchell of the Anniston association, President O'Neill says that he has not allowed the game which was protested when An niston recently beat Rome IA to g. He says the fact that the game was be- gun during the rain eliminates all ground for protest on account of wet grounds. s

DECATUR PLAYERS ANGRY
 OVER CHANGE OF MANAGERS

contract with Decatur to manage the club and that he would not play under Harlow He stated that he had just reached his own conclusions as to the weakness of the club and that he was preparing to fill in the gaps when he learned of his removal.
 Hickman states that his arm is now just as good as it has ever been, and that in case Decatur determines to let him go he will sign with a Southern league club. Since his first game in the Southeastern, he has been unbeatable.
 Hickman says the Southeastern is very classy little circuit. He considers Rome and Selma the strongest clubs and does not think well of Huntsville although Huntsville has recently under gone revision of lineup, and spurted considerably in consequence. He fears that Gadsden is slipping and does not consider Anniston very strong.
 Hickman declares Mack Robinson, the former Baron, and Tom Fisher. the well known former Southern leaguer, are doing good work in the South- eastern.
 He understands that Ralph Savidge will be manager of the Selma team.

CARPENTER TRIED TO BUY

tributing the poor work of Third Base man Grant to the fact that he is play ing in Cincinnati under protest.
 We are having a real live race in the Southern league" said Carpenter, and the fight would be incomparable were Atlanta higher up in the stand ing It is pitiable when a real live club is down and out. Atlanta and Birming ham compose the backbone of the league, it appears, and it is sad when Birmingham is left that duty to per form by itself
 T have always contended that Bir- is the best baseball town in the league. You have had two weeks of rain and thunder, and yet you are drawing finely. Look at the crowd to- day in spite of this dreadful weather.
 "The Birmingham club, to my mind, is a very god one. It is composed of gen tlemanly players. I am always glad when my assignment card sends me to this city, The people just suit me, and have never had a moments unpleas- antness while here"

Billy Carpenter, the well known um- pire, having reached Birmingham from Atlanta yesterday too late to catch a train for Memphis, saw the game be- tween the Gulls and the Barons.
 Carpenter stated that the Atlanta fans are patronizing the games more satisfactorily than heretofore. although he admits that there Is a serious dis affection among the Atlanta baseball populace.
 In his general discussion of matters relative to Southern league affairs, Billy stated that Cincinnati had com missioned him to buy Hyder Barr from New Orleans for s250O. Carpenter stated, however. that Charlie Frank, so far. had declined to let the player go.
 Carpenter keeps in close touch with Cincinnati, and stated that conditions there are bad. He stated that Phelan Is playing a better game than any in- fielder possessed by Cincinnati, at

WITH THE .SCRIBES

Jimmy and Dock Johnston, the two Chattanooga brothers who are starring with the Birmingham and New Orleans clubs, respectively, seemed to have a race with each other every time the two teams meet. Jimmy makes single; Dock makes a 'two-base hit. Dock pliers 3 base; Jimmy steals two.
 A few days ago, in a game between New Orleans and Birmingham, the sum mary was all Johnston. The Johnstons were making the long hits, stealing the bases, laying down the bunts and helping in the double plays.
 In yesterdays game Jimmy got three hits and pilfered twice, while Dock smashed two hits and plfered once. Jimmy bested brother" Probably Brother Dock will be on top today.-Chat tanooga Times.
 There is one thing that Choly Frank had better not do, though if he is in earnest about this pennant- winning game, and I happen to know that he is thor oughly in earnest That one thing is to ship off Hyder Barr until he can get mighty good man in his place.
 And Cholly is nobody's fool. Whether Cleveland wants Hyder right away or not you can bet the family jewels that Cleve- land won't get Barr. unless Frank is well provided with left fielder and his mo- tions about good left fielders have been considerably magnified since Hank Butch CT and Hyder Barr have been working in that job for him.
 Charlie Somers is Franks packer, all right, but Frank is not going to jeopar- dize his pennant interests down here to help Somers out in his present hole. They wanted Butcher up there a long time be- fore they got him.-New Orleans Item.
 Thanks to the philanthropc bent of the Baron infielders, ihe Pelicans staved off their slump temporarily at the Slagpile yesterday afternoon. They garnered but foEr hits, however, a striking comparison with the two-fgure number which gener- ally represents their quota. It is scarcely 10 be believed that Franks crew can hold their present high bngling figure, and with the battery weakness which is grow ing plainly apparent the Frankmen are not going to have half the sinecure which they anticipate.-Chattanoog News.
 First Baseman Miller may be suspend ed by National Secretary Farrell, pending investigation of the protest of the Jack son, Miss, club, which claims to have purchased him last Saturday from the Jonesboro club. Inasmuch as the N. E. Arkansas league was at that time official ly out of business, with schedule aban- Goned and team scattered it is believed the players contentious that they were free agents will be upheld. But meantime the Chicks will be up against it for a first haseman.-Memphis News-Scimitar.

 Hickman stated that he had not been officially advised of his release as man ager of the club and the substitution of Con Harlow, but that he knew that such action had occurred.
 He stated that his players were very much enraged that a change in the management had been made and that they had threatened to sign an agree ment not to play for another manager. Hick man, however, dissuaded them from this plan.

Lazarus stated that he saw Scatter Sallee, Frank Smith, Tom Downey, all former Birmingham players, and George Suggs, a well known Southern leaguer of two years ago. He stated that Downey played an excellent game until the eighth inning when with the bases full, he. permitted an easy bounder to get away from him.
 Tn this" said Lazarus, The reminded me of his work with Birmingham always made his errors in the crises. And as he used to do when with Bir- mingham. he drew off his glove after his error and threw it with force against the ground"
 Lazarus received the impression while in Cincinnati that there will be another manager and another club in Cincinnati next spring.
