Il is true some clippings containing facts and statements which did not coincide were printed. but they were printed without comment. Surely this Is not the attack to which he refers.

niston for a training camp for about four years and this is the first time that any complaint has been made about conditions there. Anniston was originally selected on account of it's ideal location and up to this spring it has fully measured up to all require ments In fact, the first two years the Rochester team trained at Anniston it won the Rochester pennant in success sion and this should help to show that Anniston is fully suitable as a site for training camp.
 Ganzel made the first cut in his squad yesterday, Habel, a young catcher, being released to the Annis- ton club of the Georgia Alabama league. The club was so badly dis abled by the Federal league raid that Ganzel is holding on to all his players in the hope of developing some of them into class AA timber.
 On that squad is four ex-major eaguers-McMillan, Keefe Martin and Schultz. McMillan formerly played with Brooklyn in the Ma tional, Keefe with the Cincinnati Reds, Martin with the New York Yankees, and Schultz with the Boston Braves.
 The Rochester newspaper men trav- cling with the team are all loud in their praise of Redwood field and also the newspaper club. In commenting on the Baron baseball plant yesterday they asserted that nowhere in the In- ternational circuit is there a park that will compare with the local one. The one in Toronto. they stated, has a better grandstand than the Baron home. but the playing field is much inferior. while at Jersey City the play ing field is superior to the local one, but the stands are poorer.
 It has always been cOntended that Redwood field is one of the best minor league plants in the country, and the fact that in the International there is no park that ranks on a par with the local one, strengthens the contention.
 The Rochester war scribes were also enthusiastic over the newspaper club. ''It is one of the best in the country" said one of the seribes "and its loca- ton is ideal. In fact | am of the opinion that no better place could have been obtained for it. The view ob- tained from the roof is splendid and makes one fully appreciate the great ness of the Magic City. Not in any city in the east have l seen one that eXcelled the newspaper club here"
 
 Marcan played in great form yester- day making three hits and scoring three runs in four times at the plate. The little keystone guardian seems to rounded into good form and he has certainly started out this spring as if he meant business In the field he also played perfectly. He went after everything that came his way and accepted a Texas leaguer off the bat of Priest in the second inning. Mar can ran far back into right center field and made brave enchanted stab at the ball. but it was a little too high and he was unable to handle it.
 Wallace also hammered the ball in splendid form yesterday. Every day he is showing an improvement in form, both in the field and at the bat and he gives promise of becoming a versatile performer. Against the Rochester hurlers yesterday he laced out two hits in three times at bat, one of them going for three bags.

ROCHESTER SCRIBES LOUD IN PRAISE OF RICKWOOD FIELD


 w each, the Barons and Hust-
 lers will tie up in the de- ciding game of their series this aft ernoon. The Hustlers achieved a 1 to victory over the Barons Thursday in Anniston, while yesterday Moley's hirelings came back strong and slaugh- tered their International league oppo- nents by very decisive score.
 Following this game the Hustlers will wend their way to Atlanta for a stay of a weeks duration, after which they will jump to Roanoke, Va, for an exhibition affair. The Interna- tional league race does not commence until April 21, and Johnny Ganzel has booked a goodly number of practice games for his corps during the mean time.
 This spring will likely be the last one that the Rochester aggregation will train at Annston. Since arriving there nearly three weeks ago much bad weather has been encountered, and the practice retarded to such an extent that the whole team is disgruntled over the turn of affairs and are urg- ing that the place be gwen up as a training ground. The players are also discontented because there are no amusements there to help pass the time away with and all want to steer clear of it next spring.

Wallace Cause of Downfall

l Then the hopes of the Hustler heaver of pulling safely out of the hole was
 blasted by a local receiver answering
 to the cognomen of Wallace. The afore-
 said Baron took kindly to the delivery
 of the opposing moundsman and after | fouling off a couple drove the ball ln
 Tar left for three bags, bringing in | hnisely, Herndon and Edwards. l When McMillan erred for the second l time that inning by letting Ellam 5
 drive ooze out of his hands, Wallace
 ambled across the plate for the fifth and final run of the inning. McBride, batting for Curley Brown. grounded out | to McMillan for the third out. Following this feast the Barons rested for two more innings and then in the eighth came to life again and garnered three more counters for good measure.
 With two down, Frank Gregory land ed on the ball for two bags, coming home on single into right by Mar can A drive to left field by Covington brought the second baseman home. while another two-base clout by Ma gee enabled the former Brown to nc- gotiate passage across the platter
 The Hustlers, or rather the "Idlers," garnered their lone tally in the fourth when Breen, after reaching first on four balls, scampered home on hits by Bar rows and Smith.

Marcan Leads Assault


 Marcan, leading off for the locals, slapped the pellet to left field for one bag, starsing the Baronial assault Covington followed with clout into right field, which eluded Priest and went for three bags Marean in the meantime romping across with tho initial score of the game. The new Baron frst-sacker also scored shortly after on drive by H1sey.
 | A hot drive to left by Herndon enabled ! etc Knisely to race home with the third run, the fourth being scored little l later by Herndon on hit into center off Walaces bat.
 | Content with this lead the Barons played sedately along until the fifth, when Pitcher Martin was ushered out on the firing line by the Rochester leader, and then they decided to give the debuting flinger a lesson and also make victory surer and more decisive. Marcan, as in the first round. led ths attack upon Mar tins delivery.
 The diminutive keystone guardian suc- eeeded in persuading the Rochester heav- CT out of a base on ba,fs and then the lid was off On an infield out Marcan advanced to second and perched there while Magee struck out. With two down the outlook was far .-om roseate but the Barons were of a different mind Knisely was hit on the hip by Martin while Herndon landed safe on first when little Tommy McMillan let his hot ground CT get away.

 AND SLAUGHTER HUSTLER TEAM
Akers and Martin Easy for Baron Sluggers and Big Score Is Piled Up-Barons Start Off With Rush
Fly ASA RoUNTREE. JR.

By welding the bludgeon effective | ly at opportune moments, the Barons i yesterday afternoon wiped out the de-
 feat sustained previously at the hands of the Rochester International league
 team in a most encouraging manner, l burying their opponents under an av- | alanche of scorching base hits and
 numerous counters. The final score was 12 to l, with Carleton Molesworth's S l hopefuls gripping the long end "Curley" Brown and Hank" Greg
 ory worked on the firing line for the I locals and throughout the nine ses- sions held the opposing batters well in l check. Several rallies were attempt | ed by Johnny Cancels band of ball tossers in a vain attempt to close up , the gap separating them and the Bar ons, but each time they were fore
 stalled by sharp fielding and steady pitching. Brown gave up four measley bingles and one run during his five innings on the mound, while Gregory | succeeded in holding the Hustlers to
 only two hits in four rounds or com bat.
 Barons Hit Hard
 Cancels offering on the mound was Akers and Martin, a former Yankee hurler. Neither gave the Baron slug gers any trouble at critical junctures 1 and victory was comparatively easy. The Barons touched the delivery of Akers for five safeties and four count CTS in four innings, and romped on Martin, who essayed to the task of trying to check the Barons during the last five innings, for a total of eight runs and six juicy drives, one Of which
 was three -bagger and another duo keystone c1outs.
 The fact that Martin was an ex-big leaguer and well trained in the art of issuing foolers 10 eager minor league batsmen did not strike terror in the hearts of the Barons and they went after him from the time he stepped on the mound in the fifth inning until the very end. in a whole-hearted manner With the sting of Thursdays defeat in their minds, Moley's henchmen did not waste any time in getting to work, hut in the opening session jumped on Ms. Akers feet first and before the smoke
 of battle ascended managed to shove four runs across the piate.
