 Atlanta at Nashville, postponed
 Chiefly as a result of Foxen's mag snihcent twirllng. the bold and battle scared Barons, veterans of a thous- and gruelling ambuscades, defeated Montgomery yesterday afternoon. The count was 9-S.
 Foxen, since coming south, has pitched games in which he yielded less than six hits, but never before in Dixie has he famed IS stickmen in one battle. He had something on the pellet yesterday afternoon. and Billi- ken after Biliken bit the dust.
 There were other features, however. McBride and Johnston starred at the bat. Each got three hits. and one of the swats of each was for four bags. Each scored three runs.
 southpaw Aitchison. whose record is better than that of any other Southern league finger, was easy. The Barons hit him at will So simple was the solution of his delivery, as matter of fact, that in the eighth inning. Marcan faced him with a tiny stick no longer than the billy of a Birming- ham cop. Marcan did not hit safely, but he drew q walk and many smiles from the spectators.
 In the first inning, the Barons made three errors in succession which opened the plate for one runner. Then Mana ger Dobbs was exceedingly joyful, and did a smoke and thunder dance on the sidelines. Later, however, he retired from the lime light.
 Two Homer Drives
 The Barons got away in the hrst,I-s luscious wallop by McGilvray sending Johnston and Ameida across the pan.
