BARON HOSPITAL
 SQUAD INCREASES
Clark, Mcbride and. Hard grove Are Out of the
 Line-Up

Chattanooga. June 7-(speciaL) The Barons' hospital squad was in- creased to two this afternoon when Danny Clark found himself unable 10 take his place at second base.
 In batting practice at Nashville Yos- terday afternoon Clark was the first man up and he took heavy lunge at the first ball pitched only to miss it. The force of the swing strained ten don under his left arm and the pain was so severe that he dropped to the ground in agony. Manager Molesworth stated this afternoon that he might be out two days or two weeks, there was no telling.
 NcBride, the other member of the Red Cross squad, who is confined 10 his home at Birmingham with The humps, has not notified Manager Molesworth when he expects to be out. Hardgrove left the club for Blrnhng- ham yesterday afternoon to be al the bedside of his young daughter, who is i'll with pneumonia and will probably not join the club until it reaches home.
 Manager Molesworth refused tonight to discuss. Harry Stradford's miserable umpiring exhibition this afternoon. HIS silence, however, was, if anything, more expressive than words. "1 have never protested an umpire in my life, s1id the Baron pilot, and I cannot afford to do so now, especially because ot the fact that my club is crippled. We will win half our games on the road anyway, so let it go at that.

CLARK IS SUFFERING FROM BAD SHOULDER. OTHER SPORT NOTES
TENNIS REQUIRES
 QUICK THINKING Fred Alexander, Former Champion, Gives Out
 Interesting Views

New York, June 7-Lawn tennis is one of the best sports, if not the best. for the physical and moral development of young men, said Fred AIexander, former international Davis cup player. in an address before a local high schooI recently. Not only strongly did he ad- wise the students to become enths,- siastfc participants in the game, but he told them that if at any time they would make arrangements to meet him. he would take some of the tennis play- CTS to a tournament and show them the fine points of the game.
 Mir. Alexander, who spoke on "The Ethics of Tennis" said that when he was 4 years old his father had built a tennis court at their home and he had practically been brought up on it. When II years old, he had a serious illness and the physicians advised that he keep out in the open as much as possible; so he spent most of his time on the ten his court.
 The speaker said tennis raised A mans standards of honesty and as far as he was concerned he was willing to play with anyone without a referee and be certain that there would be no differences over the score. Speak, ing especially to the members of the Curtis tennis team, who sat in the front row, MT. Alexander advised that they play with better players than them selves, watch better players than them selves and. as far as possible, copy the style of better players than them selves.
 Tennis requires a quick thinker, said the champion. A successful player must have his mind under control at all times, and one will acquire the power of quick and accurate thinking by playing the game, he said. Another thing of which the champion spoke was the apparent ease with which 1t was possible to play the game; this is, it is only necessary to get a part ner and go out on a court and have Il game, whereas in baseball it is nec- essary to assemble IS players to have a game. Tennis can be played and is played by men of all ages and sta- tions of life, he pointed out.
 MT. Alexander told the students that when he was a student at Princeton he travelled around the country with a tennis team and much ridicule was hurled at the players and the game, but he explained that all this was past now and the public had rapidly be- come fascinated with the game until today it was one of the foremost sports.

FRED'S COMMENT
 ON THE AMATEURS

Eight straight wins is the reward of the Pep-to-Lac team for their efforts thus far. The bottlers have been playing brand of ball that is hard to beat To overcome them now would be a difficult task. but they have some fast opponents to meet, and prolonged slump would put them in an exceedingly tight place.
 The Central leaguers are separated from each other by rather close margin Besides the Pep-to-Lac bunch the re- mainder of the teams have not been so fortunate as to break into the win col umn with regularity. However, some lively baseball is promised in this circuit before the curtain falls
 The East Lakers are another combina- ton that has not suffered defeat. Satur- day they defeated the Rasco Jewellers in an extra inning affair. The race in the City league is far more interesting than any other that has yet developed
 Brookside is setting a good pace for their opponents in the Miners league. All attempts to down them have been of no avail, and they lead the circuit. Min eral Springs is a close second with only one defeat and five wins. The remaining six teams are bringing up. poor rear

 Chattanooga, June 7.-tSpecIaI) Backed up by brilliant support in the pinches, Rube Marshall held the Bar- Ons helpless after the first inning this afternoon and the LooIsouts grabbed the opening game of the series 5 to 2. <Grimes was peppered steadily by the local bntsmen from the start in spite of the fact that his teammates gave him n two-run lead before he entered the box. Three runs in the third sewed mp the contest.
