Practically every team in the south ern league is hitting under the aver age The Barons have not batted at all like they will hit this season. In fS games that the Barons have played they have secured but 64 hits out Of ,52 times at bat. This makes the bat ting average of the team total up at 1S2. Any team that has slugged no Setter has never won a pennant in the Southern league. However. the Bar ons are improving daily and it is not to be doubted that Blrminghams aver age next month at this time will be at least 80 higher Last season the team average was about 220
 The highest number of hits that the Barons have yet been able to attain in a single game was 12. This number was made on April Is, when Birming- ham played at Mobile, Clarence Smith was pitching for Birmingham. while Billy Campbell twirled for Mobile Yes terday at Montgomery the Barons se- cured eight hits. This boosted the average little.
 Playing isn't all in baseball. "Rowdy'' Elliott, the peppery backstop of the Volunteers and former Baron receiver. recently broke his thumb on foul tip. He will be out of the game for al least three weeks. However, unlike many other players who have been crippled. he Is being carried along on all the trips by the Volunteers. It is seldom that manager will carry along a dis abled player.
 Rowdy is being carried along by Nashville for the sole purpose of mak- ing noise. He is the official coach and noise maker of the Volunteers and will hop around the third corner with his pipes working over time. Rowdy has sprung into the favor of the Nash vile fans just as he did here his first season.
 The Baron discards are doing we'll
 Jimmy Wall. who was released by the Barons, Is starring daily in the Cotton States league with Meridian. He IS hitting like a fiend and his fielding has been sensational. There is little doubt but that Wall will hiA over 300 with Meridian and he should prove 10 be star on the defense.
 Elmer Randall is playing with the Gadsden team. His arm did not round into condition as he expected and he has been playing in the outneld for the Steelmakers. He Is hitting very hard. Randall will prove to be a win ming pitcher when his arm is warmed up by the hot sun. He was the second pitcher in the Cotton States league last season and virtually won the pennant for Vicksburg.
 The other Baron discards have not yet had a chance to demonstrate their ability.
 Those Crackers are certainly swat ting the pill. Contrary to the present [ rule of the hitting of the Southern leaguers they are batting near the 300 mark Hemphill has been doing his share, while the outfielders and others have been hitting with timeliness and regularity.
 The Pelicans are doing little, as well as many other aggregations. Schwartz at Nashville is not satisfied with the hitting of his huskies and according
