PRESENT LINEUP
General Scramble for Play
ers Has Been Passed by
the Pelicans
CHICKS Squirt ENDED:
LOST FIFTH PLACE
Pels Playing in Form, Gain on Vols.
Crackers Continue to Shift Line
up-Lookouts and Crackers
Fail to Break Even

Atlanta, July 29.-The gen
eral scramble for players which
has been taking place recently
in the Southern association APP
parently has been passed by
New Orleans.
y Despite the fact that the Pelicans
have an injury list including an in
fielder and what is said to be the tenn
peramental indisposition of a pitcher,
they are moving along at their best
gait since the first weeks of the
season.
Reported slipping several weeks ago,
when batting slump overlook them, and
counted out of the race more recently
by several critics when Outfielder AL
lison and Infielder Stansbury were in
jured, the player-manager' men since
Sunday have proved the feature of the
league. Pitcher Walker, who had been
accused of Sinking" gave the experts
a sharp turn by disposing of Atlanta
rather easily Thursday.
Winning all four games they played
this week, the Pelicans crept UP rap
idly on the Volunteers, who got but an
even break out of six games. Both
Chattanooga and Atlanta, despite sew
eral changes in the lineup, have lost
more games than have been won, and
neither, according to critics, is now CIV
ing any evidence of real drive.
The squirt of Memphis, starting last
week, which sent the Chicks into fifth
place, seemingly ended yesterday in the
loss of double header to Nashville.
The rest of the teams have been play
ing their usual in-and-out ball, with
the Travellers, perhaps, showing signs
of a revival.
Numerous changes have occurred this
week. Chattanooga, with RUDE Mar
shall believed to be out of the season,
has signed Howard Merritt, former
Chick, hurler from the Texas league.
The Crackers disposed of 1nfielde.s Nc
MILAN and Lennox and Pitcher LaFitte,
taking on Pitcher Davis who had a
trial with Atlanta at the seasons open
ing.
Mobile has a new hurler in Joseph
Wiley from the Georgia Alabama
league. and Little Rock sold Pitcher
Hoff to Salt Lake. Manager Dobbs has
announced that he will stand pat, with
Catcher Deberry in the outfield.

CAUSES TOURNEY
TO Be POSTPONED
Courts Are Not in Condition
for Play T0mOrrow-May
Begin on Wednesday.
Only 16 Entered

On account of the clay courts of the
Birmingham Athletic club still being
out of condition, due to the inclement
weather for the past three weeks. the
second annual Junior Tennis champion
ship tournament will not start tomor-
row. as scheduled, but provided the
courts can be put in shape by Wednes-
day, the play will be begun.
Entries can still be made to Secre-
tary Beavins of the Athletic club
Owing to the fact that several boys
who entered did not pay their entry
fee, were dropped, the list now contains
but 16 names. These boys, however. are
the best young players in the city and
the indications are that the tourney
will be started with small entry list
but with youngsters who will stack UP
favorably with a number of veteran
players in the city.
Provided the play begins Wednea-
day. the pairings and drawings will be
held on Tuesday night. If there Is a
sufficient number to continue to hold
the entry list even, boys will probably
be allowed to enter Wednesday morn
ing. The privileges of the Birmingham
Athletic club will be at the disposal Of
the entries during the tourney.
