 WITH JEFFERSON

Memphis, August 24.--G. II. Wolbrecht, St. Louis, and B. B. Jefferson, Memphis. each had score of one and half games at the end of the play today in the second series of post-tournament matches for the championship of the Western Chess association. Another game will be played tomorrow and a victory for eith- CT would decide the championship. In the event of draw another series will be necessary.
 Four players were tied for first place at the end of the regular tournament play of 19 games last Monday and in the play-off Wolbrecht and Jefferson again tied for high score, the other players be- ing eliminated. It was agreed that the players winning two games in the sec ond series would be declared the cham pion but as the score stands tonight a draw tomorrow would result in another tie.

Mccormick Has Three New Pitchers Morgan Ross and Nc Farland-New Shortstop Caveny is Regular-Hem
 mingway III With Fever-Wallace Shows Class

indisposed, Curley Brown might have scored a no-hit victory over the Vol unteers yesterday. Hemmingway, the regular shortstop, was confined to his room with slight attack of fever. He is not thought to be seriously i'll and will get into the game soon. However, Brown is unusually effective against Hemmingway and it was his substi- tute-Lindsay- drove out the lone hit.
 The Nashville club has been troubled with various maladies recently. Paul. cite and Gibson have been troubled by the intense heat, while Sloan has been in the throes of a virulent fever. With Callahan and Hemingway out, Nashville does not look dangerous.
 George Stallings is death to tradi- tions. The idea that players must be used regularly to make a successful ball team has been dealt a mortal blow. The Boston Braves leader, who was forced to drop below the Giants yesterday when Rudolph cracked, uses but three men daily. Moranville at short, Evers at second, and Schmidt at first are the regular performers.
 Six outfielders alternate. Gather. Whitted and Mann are sent into the outfield at times, while Devore, Con nolly and Mann are usually dispatched to the garden. Five Of his sextette were givien trials under other major league managers and spurned.
 The season in the South Atlantic seems to have given shotgun Wal lace the necessary finish. The young Baron backstop caught the second game against the Vols yesterday and registered a perfect batting mark, driving out two hits, both for extra bases in two trials.
 In Wallace, Molesworth believes that he has a likely young backstop. Jack is still youngster and has the size and wing. He is faster on the paths than most receivers, and has a pretty keen head. Scout Howard Earle, of the Pittsburg club, trailed him for a while in the South Atlantic It is not known what his final opinion was.

T.yNTRENCHED in first place, the
 Barons return from Nashville A this morning for series with the Chattanooga club. Moose Me Cormick has an abundance of young sters who will probably be paraded before the stands. One youngster has already broken into the array as a regular. He is Shortstop Cavney, who was purchased from the Salt Lake City club on the recommendation of Bill Bernhard, former manager of Memphis.
 Three pitchers-all young and in- experienced-are travelling with Me- Cormick. Pitcher Morgan, from the Salt Lake City club; Lefty Ross, secured from Jackson, Tenn, and Me Farland the star finger of the Geor- gia State league, are the youthful trio and all are expected to be seen in action.
 The Lookout pilot expects the addi- tion of fourth finger in Birming- ham during the clash. The latest is Pitcher Currie, who halls from North Carolina. Big Roland Howell, who was once considered nothing more than second string twirler, has earned a regulars position with the Lookouts His triumph over the Bar ons in the last series at Redwood was the best game that he had ever pitched for Chattanooga at the time, but lately he has scored several vic tories and has won his spurs.
 Caveny has played in such form as to convince "Maose'' that he will star. Morgan made a creditable debut, but cracked on his second trial against New Orleans. Howell is scheduled to pitch the first game against Birming- ham this afternoon, while Roth or Robertson will twirl for the league leaders.
