 Dick Jemison, sporting editor of the Atlanta Constitution, and in his idle moments president of the Georgia Alabama league, has mailed to President Woodrow Will son a seasons pass for his circuit. The Presidents pass is No. l. Gov, Nat Harris of Georgia drew No 2, and letters from both executives have been received by the league head. Their letters follow
 Dick Jemison, Atlanta, Ga.: The President asks me to ac- Knowledge the receipts of your let ter of April 19, and to thank you warmly for your courtesy in send ing him the enclosure. He much appreciate the good will you mani fest. Sincerely yours,
 "J. P. TUMULTY,
 Secretary to the President
 Governor Harris wrote as fol- lows:
 Dick Jemison, president Geor- gia-Alabama league: Please ac- cept my sincere thanks for your kindness in sending me season pass to all the games of the Geor- gia Alabama league. Your kind ness in this matter is very much appreciated. and hope may have the pleasure of witnessing some of the games during the season. Sim cere1y yours,
 IN. E. HARRIS, Governor"
 Which serves to call to mind the fact that on May the Georgia Alabama gets under way with prospects brighter than they have been in years for a season. In common with the larger circuits, interest in baseball has come back to life in the Georgia Alabama. with Anniston, Rome, Newman, Talladega, Griffin and LaGrange, Dick has a compact little circuit that should go extremely well.
 The Age-Herald, as has been an- nounced before in these columns, will carry the box scores of every l game played in the Georgia Ala bama league and will keep the fans of the league cities thoroughly in formed as to developments in that circuit. The Age-Herald wishes the league well and predicts for it most prosperous season.

Perry did not allow hit until the seventh inning when he let up and Derrick and Clark hit slow curves for safe hits. He allowed one hit in the eighth, a double by Johnson, which tallied the only run of the game for the Barons, and aside from these two spells was master of the Barons at all stages
 The Barons could not seem to see his fast ball Perry showed better stuff against the Barons today than he has shown since he has been a Cracker, and this, with the Crackers batting lamps trimmed brightly proved too much for Moley's men.
 Hauser walked after two were gone in the Baron's eighth and tallied when Johnson hammered one against the right field fence for a double.
 Munch opened the Crackers fifth with a single sending Munch to third. Perry then dumped a Texas leaguer in right center, scoring Munch and send ing Gagnier to third Thrasher walked and Ga sgnier tallied on McMillan's sac rifice fly to right.
 The seventh was the big round Perry and Thrasher singled and McMillan laid down a safe bunt. Mayer cleaned the sacks with a triple Mcdonald scored Mayer with a single LennoX walked. .Munch sacrified and got a life when Johnson fumbled his bunt and Gagnier cleaned the sacks with a three play smash.
