s$S $$ Barons Slaughter Clay in Farcial Combat
CRIMSON COACH WELL
 SUPPLIED WITH MEN

Indications point to a strong and re- liable pitching staff for this season. Stew enson. on account of his hitting, may be used in the outfield, if his services are not needed in pitching.
 Hamilton of Huntsville and George Brewer, ex-Auburn catcher, are waging hot race for the Initial sack. Both are excellent fielders and the best wielder ot the willow should cop the place.
 Four men are prominent for second Schuster Ladd, McCann and Neville.
 Joplin, this years captain, Is again at short.
 Charlie Cargyle of Bessemer seems to have third base in a safety deposit box. An accurate fielder with a powerful whip, he is easily the fastest man on the field. So far he is proving good batter
 The oudfield has numerous possibilities in Crawford Cobb, SnodgraSs, Stacy, Bailey, Nathan, Anderson and Harsh
 J. II. Rainer of Union Springs suffered fractured and dislocated ankle during sliding practice. He was a promising can Gidate for the outfield.

Steps Being Taken to Pre- vent Internal Dissension
 in City League
DISINTERESTED MEN
 WILL BE OFFICIALS
Many Teams Seeking Admission Into League-Support of Young Mems Christian Association Has
 Been Obtained

Internal dissension will not prevail in
 the City league this year if the league
 fathers can in any way prevent it. To-
 ward the conclusion of the 1913 season,
 the organization was almost disrupted
 by petty quarrels so this year measures
 will be taken to prevent a repetition. One
 of the first steps that will be taken by
 the league to insure harmony during th. coming season is the selection of officers. who are in no way connected with league affairs, or affiliated with any of the teams. The offices of president, first vice
 president and second vice president wilt
 be filled by disinterested parties Last year it was claimed that certain officers were partial to various teams and much discontent resulted from the accu4 sations With these important officeS filled by neutral persons, nothing of tho sort is liable to occur again A com4 mittee has been appointed to select suit
 able men to fill the offices and a report
 will be made at a meeting of the league next Friday evening.
 A large number of amateur teams are,
 this year clamoring for admission into
 the league, so it has been deemed ad- yisable to form two divisions, western and eastern one. At the conclusion of the season a post-season series will be
 played to determine the championship. Unlike last season, plans for these cham
 pionship battles will be formulated be-
 fore the campaign begins, so as to elm-
 mate all of the unpleasant incidents that characterized the 1913 series and aroused much unpleasant feeling

Fined for Getting Married

There are certain sections and communi- ties who penalize marriage, and regard 1t in the light of q punshabl. orfense, says London Tit-Bits
 It is the rule, for instance, at All Souls college, Oxford that a fellow forfeits his fellowship if, when studying the classics, he should take unto himself wife. in such an event he must not only pay the penalty, but must also present his col lege with memorial in the shape of a silver cup. with the further condition that on this cup shall be inscribed in Latin, "He back-slid into matrimony.'
 Many readers have doubtless heard of the Bachelors club in London. When a member so far forgets the principles of the club as to marry he is promptly ex- pelled. By payment of nne- of e25 he can, however, retain an honorary mem- bership but. of course, he cannot enjoy the privileges of this select band of non- marrying men.
 There is similar organization in Ger many-the Jungesellen club Whenever there comes to the officials Of this club any intimation that a member contem- plates matrimony, he is immediately sum- moned for trial in the club court, with the president as judge. The culprit is allowed to plead in extenuation of his offense and upon his skill in presenting such plea depends the amount of his fine which ranges from G20 to e200. The hu- morous feature of the fine consists in the purpose to which the money is ap- plied The money is devoted to a win her, whereat all members appear in mourning attire. At the conclusion of the repast the president soleninIy reads the sentence of expulsion, and the delinquent is led from the room amid the groans and lamentations of his erstwhile club fellows.

Y. M. c. A. Support Obtained

The support of the Young Mems Chris tlan association has been obtained and this will go long ways toward secur- ing harmony within the ranks of the league.
 The prospects this year are better than they have been for several years past and one of the most successful seasons that has yet been run is anticipated by league officials.
 So keen is the interest in the City league that several stores and manufac- turing plants intend putting out teams Tor the first time.

MURPHY AND NOLAN

MOley's PrOteges Run Wild Over the Clay Nine-NOlan First on Fir ing Line-Amateurs Game

By ASA ROUNTREE, JR.

While the Baron twirlers were hold l ing the opposition helpless, the Baron | sluggers tore into the offerings of the Clay rloundsmen with vengeance yes terday afternoon in the first practice game of the season and buried their amateur opponents under fusillade of | base hits. From the very first round of battle the Barons took to the curves 1 of the Clay pitchers like ducks take to water and in three innings had piled l up total of 12 counters, while the opposition could not get within touch ing distance of the plate. The final score. sad to relate, was 31 to ?. Nolan, the young professional l from New York, opened hostilities for the Barons and during the five in nngs he was on the firing line held | the Clay players in the palm of his hand, yielding up only four hingles. | Murphy. another young mi-profes- sional, succeeded Nolan on the mound and in four innings gave up two scat tered safeties.
 Two Runs Allowed Clay
 To save the Clay players from an l lignominious shutout the Barons in the fourth inning eased up and allowed the l counters. After that, however, the Bar ons shut down and played airtight ball, and Clay was never able to push an- other run across
 1 A total of 25 bingles was garnered
 by Molesworths proteges off the de- | liveries of J. Ware, Tony Ware and Montcref. three ambitious young cit izens of Clay who essayed the burden I of dishing out foolers to the locals. While the Barons were busy thusly, | the Clay team attempted to grow fat off the pitching of Nolan and Murphy, but the Test they were able to do
 was to rope in six measley base hits. In every inning, with the exception
 of the tn, Moley's cohorts were able
 to negotiate passage across the plate. l In the third they chalked up 10 runs
 and in ths sixth round eight. During | these two sessions every Baron had | a turn at the bat, four of them get
 ting additional trials in each.
 Barons Play With Fest
 The Ba'ons played with a snap and
 zest that is characteristic of April form growing dull and uninteresting. Their

 Although they were being showed un- der in a disgraceful fashion the Clay aggregation was game until the last
 and not ore of them showed any signs
 of quitting under the overwhelming
