A BIT OF BASEBALL DOPE
 ABOUT PLAYERS AND TEAMS

The Southern league has long been regarded as one of the best places in the world for veteran to regain his old-time form. Pitchers who have not been able to curve them anywhere else have lone well in the south. The players have grown quite confident and many who could scarcely throw when they first came south have wings to be feared today.
 When Molesworth entered the league with Chattanooga he could not throw from first to second. However, Moles- worth had some kind of an arm. Harry steinfeldt has out-Heroded Herod Stenfeldt reported to Billy Smith at Chattanooga to play third base. Billy took him out to work on the diamond and 1t was found that the former Bruin could hardly push a ball 10 feet.
 His visit to the south was very brief. He arrived early in tho morning and left early the same night. Perhaps he had such confidence in himself that he believed the players couldn't hit them to third. Billy Smith thought other wise though. Steiny must have thought 'tidi oiAS thS NV"iu Suie hlS NihS.
 
 1 Pop" Eyler, the old Southern league pitcher Is now cavorting with Harry Matthews Romans. Eyler declares that F"Big lawn" Cochran Is one of tho greatest natural htters that he ever saw. This was said previous to the game of Saturday. when Cochran drove the ball over left field fence on line drive also. We are sure Ey1er believed 1t after the swat.
 q have seen many players in my time." said Pop" but I have never seen a more promising youth than Cochran. That boy hits the ball as hard as Joe Jackson. He puts every bit of his weight against 1t and 1t goes at terrific speed We pitchers have been trying to discover his weakness, but as yet we have been unable to solve it. If we put them high he hits them, and if we put them low he kills them. So you see we are In n hole when the boy comes 10 bat
 T believe that Cochran would hit 300 in any league in the country, and am sure that he will make Birming ham, or any other team. one of the best men that the team ever had. Besides his hitting he is fast on his feet. He only needs to be uttered bit more and then he will go to the majors. He is Il coming player"
 According to the Mobile Register. Bill Ielivelt has signed with the An niston Models. Bill was once one of the best pitchers in the Southern. When he was with Mobile in 1009 he was one of the best in tho Southern Then he was sold 10 the Detroit club, where he failed to stick after a years tryout. Detroit shunted him to the minors and then be came to Montgomery. From Montgomery he went to Mobile. Now he has gone to Anniston. Bill had quick drop from the majors to the minors.
 Lelivet had several offers to play else- where. but went in Anniston believing

Nashville, Tenn, May o7.-President w. NJ. kavanaugh of the Southern league took the Nashville baseball franchise out of the hands of the local company today and turned 1t over to Dan E. MeGugin, who is widely known on account of his athletic connection with Vanderbilt Unl- versty. The transfer of the franchise came as a severe blow to the present owners who had hoped in some way to continue to operate the club.
 The transfer of the franchise means that McGugin will have entire control until he organizes a new company. which he intends to do within the next few days if possible.
 A long distance call from Kavanaugh at Little Rock was the first news that McGugin had of the proposed transaction. He had to accept or refuse before noon today or the franchise would have been taken from Nashville and probably placed in Little Rock.
 In a statement issued this afternoon MeGugin said There are three things which l intend doing. I will play base ball here. according to schedule except Sundays. l will do nothing in the face of the law In the near future I hope to organize new company and take out charter of incorporation. Furthermore. the present owners will have nothing to do with the management. They are out of it altogether"
 Nashville and New Orleans will play

Tuscaloosa. May 27.-(special)--In a slow and uninteresting game the Uri- versity of Alabama baseball team defeat- ed the aggregation from the Central Uni- versity of Kentucky on the university diamond this afternoon by a score of Il to 3. The only feature of the game was the manner in which the Alabamlans pill feied bases as they secured 12 sacks dur ing the game.
 In tho seventh inning, Joplin of the Ala bsma nine got a single and stole second, third and home. The Kentucky boys played a very loose fielding game, whiie the university men touched Pitcher To- bin up for an even dozen hits, a number of them being for extra bases. Captain McDowell was the particular shining light with the ash. securing four hits, one Of them for three sacks The Central Uni versity of Kentucky will play here to- morrow also.
