CROPS TO PAY DEBT
ENGLAND TO TAKE PRODUCTS
FROM U. S. TO SAVE GOLD.
English FinancIcr In Washington Says
Cotton Exports viii Begin
Soon.

Washington. Ga s-Sir George
Paish, specia, aeyiser to the English
chancellor OF the exchequer, after
conference with treasury officials
over the financial situation, spoke with
optimism as to the outlook.
Sir George expects scheme can
be worked out that will make the ex-
port of $20O,0OO.O0O of gold represent
ing American debts In England un-
necessary.
The treasury does not want to send
that enormous amount of gold out
of the country. But England does
want the temporary balance Of trade
in her favor settled in some way and
Sir George said that English manu-
facturers wanted cotton badly If they
can be assured that 1t has reached it's
bottom price.
While the English financial expert
would not discuss ways and means
considered between himself, Secretary
McAdoo and members Of the federal
reserve board, the inference was drawn
from what he said that ninety-day pa-
per would be accepted as the eQuiva-
lent of gold This will be supplied
by the reserve bank.
There Is no doubt in my mind that
eventually the balance of trade will
again be in your favor" he said. IN
the months to come England will be
buying American wheat and cotton.
These purchases probably will not can
eel the sum owed to England in few
months but 1t is bound to come In
time. in the meantime, arrangements
will be made so that the United States
will not be embarrassed but that will
at the same time assure England that
her money will be forthcoming when
wanted"

the Barons came near nosing out victory yesterday in the opening game with the Gulls. But although the Barons were trounced by the scant margin of one counter they demonstrated in a convincing man. ner that they were game. When the ninth inning dawned the Bir- mingham team was five runs to the bad but they tore into the of- ferings of Gudger and were pre- vented from emerging victors by the failure of Magee to connect after two men were down.
 As a pinch hitter Catcher Wal lace drew the prize yesterday. Sent in to bat in the ninth he delivered with a punch to the out field fence which was only pre- vented from going for a home run by high signs located there. As it was he secured two bags and brought two men across.

SH|F I IN PLAYING SCHEDULES SUNDAY Weak Teams Will Oppose Leaders During the
 Week

Atlanta April 26.-The Southern league ends it's second week with New Orleans holding the lead, although the season has hordly reached that point where 1t is pos sible to figure on relative team stand ing.
 There was general shift in the play ing schedule today, which means that some of the clubs far down in the per centage column will meet second week top notchers. Warm weather has put most of the players in good working form, while others have passed through the early stage which brought the usual amount of physical soreness. Mt at tempt has been made thus far to exert the pitching staff, although many of the recent games showed steady heads and strong arms at critical moments
 Nashville at Memphis, Montgomery at New Orleans Birmingham at Mobile and Chattanooga at Atlanta Is the new week schedule.

 Pitcher Sloan also with Richmond. and known in North Carolina baseball circles, is making good in his new berth. He was the first Virginia league pitcher to stop Manager Harry Matthews Newport News team in the mad getaway of the Ship builders.
 lnfelder Barbare, who appears to be setting the woods afire down New Or leans way, is product of the Ashe- vile team of 1913, and the fans here are naturally interested in his work in the Southern league. Pitcher Gudger of Mo bile is likewise an Asheyille man.

Asheville. N. G. April 26.-tSpecial.) Birmingham is holding one of Ashevine' s stellar baseball performers, and as a re-
 suit all Blue Ridge mountain fandom is
 sad these days and refuses. absolutely, I to be consoled.
 l Prof. Lonnie Noojin of Howard college at East Lake is the particular star in question, and when the name of Noojin i is mentioned in polite baseball circles
 there is a downcast expression manifest at once upon the faces of the true and | tried
 The fact that Noojin will not come to | Asheville again came to light today when , the coach at the Baptist college near | Birmingham wrote the local baseball as
 sociation that surroundings in the vicin- ] ity of the Magic City of the south were
 far more appealing to him this season than the lure of the six-club North Caro- | lima league, where he successfully ca vorted last season.
 There has been strong suspicion in these parts for some time that Professor Noojin would not return to Asheville's outer gar den this season, but the fans were living in-hopes that he would reconsider. His letter to Secretary Tom Duckett is final, however, so it would seem
 Asheville, like Birmingham in the Southern and New Yofk in the National, to say nothing of a few other lesser cele- brities in the baseball Armament, made poor getaway at the beginning of the 1 Carolina league season, and as a result there is some bowling going on. This afternoon a Charlotte batter hit the ball into safe territory in the far out field. It would have been an impossible catch. but a local recruit went after the sphere with plenty of vim but little luck, of course. The aforementioned Charlotte batter was perehed on third base when the smoke cleared away. Immediately the ghost of the Birmingham player Noojin-appeared
 That would have been an easy out for Noojin," yelled one fan.
 Send after Lonnie Noojn," screamed another.
 Get Noojin to plug that we'll in the field,' suggested the third.
 Thus it went down the line for Lonne Noojin is some favorite in these parts He can have most anything that he wants. Hence the tears over his failure to return.
 Local fandom is watching with interest the work of Infielder Edwards, a former North Carolina leaguer, now belonging to Birmingham, and cavorting with Rich mond in the Virginia league. Edwards, too. is some fayorite here. Virginia news papers are boosting him up to the sky and the box scores of the several games in which he has participated recently shows that Edwards has the makings of some fast player. He is batting bout

NLY three more players need be cast adrift before May 1
 by Manager Molesw orth of

be cast adrift before May 1 O by Manager Molesworth of the Barons In order to step within the league limit With the outright release of Outfielder Herndon to the Beaumont club in the Texas league the Baronial squad was cut down to 19 men and of these the fate of one--charley Bell-has been definitely decided upon. The local boy is yet too inexperienced for Southern league society and just as soon as Charley Carroll recovers from his injury Bell will be placed by Moley.
 The other cuts will be made in the pitching and backstopping de- partments. Seven moundsmen and three receivers remain on the local roster and before May 1 pitcher and catcher will be turned aloose. As yet Manager Molesworth has who the two unfortunates will be and there is much speculation go- ing as to which hurler and re- ceiver will draw the final pink slips.
 It is thought that the sixth place on the mound corps lies between Burleigh Grimes, the former Look out, and Harbin, a Texas league re- cruit Harbin has made two appear ances on the mound, finishing one game and starting another, while Grimes has also done the same. his second appearance being yesterday when he relieved Hardgrove in the fifth.
 As to which of the three catch causing the local fans worry. Some believe that Dilger will go, while others assert that Wallace will feel the ax. Tragesser. Wal lace and Dilger have all shown up to advantage but absolutely nothing can be gleaned from Moley on the situation. Wallace has much to learn yet, as the double steal pulled off by Barbare and Higgins in New Orleans recently, which won an 11-inning battle for the Birds, shows. But this counts for little against him as Pitcher Rob- ertson was also implicated.
 Tn selling Herndon outright, the Baron chieftain followed out pol icy that he has adhered to from the time he first assumed control of the local club, that Is of releasing a player without strings when he has failed twice in succession to make good with the Barons. If any of the newcomers among the local recruits warrant further trials after failing to stick on the first occasion Moley farms them out with strings attached. but if on the second tryout they fail to make good he turns them aloose outright.
 Herndon Is the third Baron re- cruit who has been released out right by Moley this spring. Sloan was the first to go. being sent to the Richmond club in the Virginia league. while Fittery was returned to the Evansville club in the Gen. tral league.
 It may interest Baron fans to know that Sloan. was the first hurler to stop the Newport News team. managed by Harry Matthews. a former Baron and Cracker, Mathews team was running wild until 1t reached Richmond and then Sloan landed kayo.
 After the Barens had made six hits and four runs in the ninth in- ming off Gudger, Magee failed to hit in the pinch with two men oc- cupying cushions and brought to close spectaoular rally by which
