Barons Show Up Poorly Tn Second Game With Pelicans
Elmer Ponder Makes Debut in Southern League and Receives Warm Recepton-Karl Black Acts as Relief Twirler
 Barons Offer But Feeble Resistance
By JACK BETHEA.

With second and third occupied and one down, Fischer hit a fly to Caton and the diminutive one failed to get his man at the plate. Allison scored. Edmundson had previously walked and he then stole second while Black held the ball. With Stansbury on third and Edmondson on second Knaupp singled to center and both romped home. Knaupp ended the inning when he grew careless and was caught off first by Black, Lindsay getting the putout.
 The only Birmingham score came in the eighth inning when a feeble rally was attempted without notable success. Clark struck out. but Deberry dropped the ball and then threw to right field trying to catch Danny and the second sacker kept on to third. Coombs was walked and Clark scored when Lindsay doubled to center field. ORourlle e struck out and Lindsay ran up on Coombs, forcing him out in H chase when Caton hit to Massey and died at first Thus ended the only stand made by the Barons. and it was distinctly a rear guard action.
 Figures for the fans are in the .bof score, which follows:

Considerable encouragement was ad- ded to the prospects of copping the honors when remarkable enthusiasm from every source was displayed at tine meeting yesterday of the fans at the Cham Der of Commerce. J. Frank Jutz, vice chairman of the opening dSg programme, presided at the meeting which was largely attended No new plans were formulated, but the com mittees were instructed to spend the entire day today ir using all efforts to secure the stores to close tomorrow. The list of stores now reaches well over the century mark and it is practi- cally assured that the number to close or that will allow their employees to at tend the game will go over the 150 mark. A large list of stores were added to the list yesterday and today the num- Der will be materially increased by to- days canvass of the business district. The committees, which number about
  Birmingham that has not signed up and will use all efforts to secure them to fall in line and help Birmingham re- peat her performance of the past two years.
 OLD RIVALS TO FIGHT
 With Memphis and New Orleans out of the fight, it appears that the old rivals, Birmingham and Atlanta, will be left in the ring to scrap for the honors. Bir- mingham, it seems at the present, has an edge on the Georgia city in that work to win the attendance trophy here has been in progress for about two weeks. Atlanta got a late start and did not begin to formulate plans for the opening day crowd until Thursday and now the capital city of Georgia is being set on fire by the fast work of the civil organ izations and other bodies.
 Atlanta has contended all the time that Birmingham would be the city she would have to beat to win the honors and it now appears that the Cracker scribes

ROUTE OF CANAL
 SHIFTED BY SLIDE

Panama. April 6.-(Special )-One of the results of the double slide in Gaillard cut. north of Gold and Contractors' hills. is the change in tho canal prism made recently by the huge mass of hard rock that threatened to prove an almost in surmountable obstacle for the dredging engineers to overcome. For distance of about one-third of a mile the center line of the canal has been shifted near ly 15O feet west of the line originally in- tended.
 It is believed that the shift will make the canal easier to navigate between the two great hills and also the stretch north of them because of the easier turn re- sulting at this point.
 The shift was decided upon when it was seen that the large mass of hard rock on the east bank of the canal showed tendency to remain station ary. It was feared that any attempt to remove it might cause the entire mass to push farther into the main channel and bring with it much larger mass immediately back of 1t. The mass at the canal edge is now acting as a retaining wall for much of the loose material far ther back.

walk" said MT. Jutz yesterday after the meeting. From the reports l have just heard, the indications are that Redwood Field will be taxed to capacity on to- morrow to greet the Bsrons on their initial appearance of the present season It looks like every store in Birmingham will either close their doors for a halt holiday or permit their employees to SC to the game if they wish. The factories automobile concerns, railroad offices oil companies, jobbers and every other com pany of any description will join in making Birmingham the winner of the honors."
 The drill of the Boys Industrial school will precede the game. It will start at 2:30 o'clock and will continue until al- most o'clock, when the teams will be- gin practice. In the meantime two brass bands will furnish music for the occa- sion. Director Nappi has composed a special piece for the occasion entitled, Birmingham Baseball Blues" The Nappi band will be in the grandstand
 Tickets for the opening game continue on sale at the Hagan-D Dunlap Drug com pany. All the box seats have been dis posed of, but there are still few grand stand seats for sale. It is requested by the management of the club that the fans purchase their tickets in town and thus avoid the annual rush at the park to secure tickets. The finishing touches for the big day will be applied today and then on tomorrow Birmingham will again be pronounced the winner of the Baugh opening day trophy.
 STORES AGREE TO CLOSE
 All stores that intend to cooperate in helping Birmingham win the at tendance by permitting their employees to attend the game should notify Blanks Everett of the Chamber of Commerce and have their names added to the list.

FROM FOREIGN FIELDS
By JACK BETHEA

New Orleans. April 17.-Cspecial. All the Barons' baseball fingers were thumbs today. They did not seem tc do anything right and just when Il appeared that rally was in sight which might give some trouble to tht Pels, an undeniable bone was pulled. Think of veteran like Lindsay run. ming up on Coombs at third. Over. anxiety to get around the paths is tho was pulled in the eighth after De. 1 berry had presented Clark with a three-bsse hit by dropping the last strike and then throwing into right field to get him at first Coombs was walked and went to third when Lind say doubled to center.
 Dillinger got O'Rourke in hole and then made him strike at bad ones and Tex whiffed. Caton hit to Massey and was thrown out at first, whereupon ensued a great comm otion, for it was discovered that Lindsay had run up on Coombs at third and the gardener was trapped. He pluckily made a try for home, but was eventually chased down and killed, which ended the inning.
 It is a deplorable fact, but very few nice things can be said about the work of the Barons this afternoon. The Pels played rings around them. outhit them, outfought them and outgeneraled them. Black seemed paralyzed as he walked back from the plate watching Edmundson go to second He did not recover from his amazement until too late to get Edmundson and wisely held the ball
 Incidentally Black worked out of a very nice hole into which he had fall en in the sixth. With one down Mas sey singled and Allison immediately duplicated. Stansbury hit to Lindsay, who was playing deep and Bill made the attempt at second, but was too late to get Allison. This choked the bases. but Blackie frightened his belt. spit and struck out Edmundson and Eschen, re- tiring the side without a run.
 This was the inning in which more butter fingers were in evidence. Ali son took a daring lead off second and Black caught him clean, but Mack dropped the ball and the Pei got back safely.
 The Barons were too light with the willow to do any material damage and Dillinger kept the hits that were gar nered very successfully scattered. While Moley's men are credited with nine plngles many were of the scratch va riety. The raps came two in the first two in the third, two in the fifth and one each in the sixth, seventh and eighth. They were not forthcoming with men on bases and consequently when the game ended the Barons had little to show for their efforts
 The Pels copped one in the second. three in the disastrous third, two in the n1th, when run resulted, two in the lourtn, and three in the sixth. The op- to any great extent.
 thing that spelled ruin for the Barons was the inability of Ponder or Black to

Big Hurler TOyed With the Millsaps Batters-T0mp- kins to Pitch Today

Tuscaloosa, April 17.-(Special )-Bow- man struck out F men this afternoon and Alabama defeated MiIlsap by a score of to 1. The big hurler simply toyed with his opponents, only allowing them to hit at will and as long bases were unoccupied twice with one on third and no out he whiffed three men and on one occasion accomplished this feat with ten pitched balls. Alabama took advantage of er- TOTS early in the game and ran in brace of tallies in the first inning.
 Behind Bowman the Crimson team fielded badly until the sixth inning. Ham ilton at first had but one put out to his credit, which each of the three ground balls knocked to the Alabama inf1eld had resulted in boobies.
