! Barons Clinch Third Place i'm Race
MOLES WILL PROBABLY
LEAD BARONS AGAININ 1914
ID DIRECTORS MEET THIS MORN
ING TO CONSIDER MANAGER.
WORDSWORTH LIKELY TO BE
IN CHARGE NEXT SEASON

AT a meeting of the directors of the
Birmingham Baseball association this
morning the question of choosing a man
ager for 1914 will be definitely settled.
While no new propositions will be sub
mitted, the directors will decide as to
whether Manager Molesworth will be re-
tained next season. In view of his sue
eessful work with the Birmingham club
it is probable that the present leader will
continue in charge.
In fact, 1t is safe to state that Manager
Molesworth will be reelected manager.
With third place clinched, the chubby
chieftain has an enviable record. During
his regime, Birmingham has taken PEN
nant. finished second once and third twice.
As no other Southern league manager has
secured such excellent results, the Br-
mingham directors feel that it would be
hard to find his equal.
A series of belated mishaps has Sc
verely handicapped Molesworth this sea-
son. Had Boyd rounded to form the
Baron leader is confident that his hench-
men would have outdistaneed the Gulls
and the Crackers Besides Boyd, the Bar
ciiS iidtNc istu iihiiy OtHtIS unable TO play.
Dilger was forced from the game with
appendicitis. Messenger, Mcbride and
Kniseiy have been out of the game at
critical stages, while Marcan, Mayer, Ell
lam and Mcdonald have suffered from
injuries.
Manager Molesworth will present
changed line up next season. After the
close of the Southern he will scout
through two minor leagues and purchase
likely youngsters. From the minors the
Baron boss will go to the majors and re-
main there until after the worlds series.
He will be given an opportunity to see
prospective players under fire and be-
lieves that he will profit by the trip,
Several will be disposed of before next
spring.
The directors will meet this morning
about 10 o'clock. and will decide to retain
Molesworth. 1t is believed that the meet
ing is hardly more than a mater of for
mality.
