ATHLETIC CLUBS ANNUAL OUTING IS THURSDAY NEXT Membership Campaign Has Resulted in Addition of
 Almost 150 New
 Members

The membership campaign of the Bir- ,minghaa Athletic club, which has been in progress for the past two weeks, has resulted in the addition of almost 15o new members, according to an announcement yesterday by Secretary D. Beavin. The campaign, however, is not yet completed and the 200 mark is expected to be reached before Thursday, when the cam paign will be closed with the annual club barbecue and outing at Edgewood.
 The club lost about 100 active members as the result of the war and are losing more every day. The subtraction of 100 or more members from any clubs mem bership will be materially felt and that was exactly the case at the Athletic club A meeting was held a short time ago and the memb ership campaign agreed upon.
 tine life of the clubs members for the coming week, however, is the annual out ing on Thursday The members are all ready getting ready for the big barbe- cue and everything else that goes with an Athletic club outing and great time is expected by all.
 Each member who secured a new mem- Der will be allowed to go to the outing free of charge, while all slackers' will be taxed
 Athletic contests of all descriptions and games of every variety will compose the programme There will also be swimming dancing and plenty of other things to do.
 Dr. James E. Dedman. chairman of the entertainment committee, is busily en- gagged at present arranging nifty programme. Dr. Dedman will offer few stunts which have made such d great Init" at the club stags.
 All members, their families and few friends will be on hand Any informa- ton concerning the outing can be se- cured from Secretary Beavin or his as sistant, Capt Porky Flynn

dents these opportunities for their
 physical training and developm ent as
 well as the opportunity for their intel
 lectual stimulus The committee feels
 further that this policy is in direct ac-
 cord with sentiments which have been expressed by President Wilson, Gen
 Leonard Wood and others high in our military councils.
 The committee respectfully advises that each member of the association shall use it's full influence to main tain its complete athletic schedule as the relationship between the mem bers of the association is so close that the withdrawal of one collegS might seriously operate to embarrass
 the other members in their efforts to play out their schedule The com mittee feels that in this serious crisis of our country's history our col leges should be the last to abandon any field of endeavor which looks to the highest and truest preparation of our young men for their most efficient service to their country"

BARONS WILL VISIT . CHICKS FOR SERIES;
 TEAM IS IDLE TODAY
Four Games Scheduled With< Memphis-Starting Mon- day-Lookouts Here
 Friday

The Barons. although they are In the midst of a terrific slump. have not been eliminated from the race for ths Southern league rag and local fans are still loyal to Carlton Molesworth and his band. Yesterday marked the dropping of another series. this time to the Little Rock Travellers who won three of the four games played.
 Probably the feature of the Barons'
 play during the week, If there was
 one, was the continued brilliant per-
 formance of Carmen Hill. the be-
 speckled twirler. Yesterdays victory
 by Hill was his twelfth consecutive
 win. Incidentally the only two games
 won during the week $ play were an-
 nexed by Hilf-one from the Gulls and
 one from the Travellers.
 Today the Barons are idle in re- spect to playing ball. The tribe moves over to Memphis tonight and opens a four game series with Cy Barger'a l Chickasaws on Monday. The series will continue through Thursday.
 Moley will probably open against i the Chicks tomorrow with either Karl l Black or Elmer Ponder The latter was started twice against the Travellers | and on each occasion he was pounded
 from the slab. The big right-hander, l however, is only having little off spell" and he'll probably return to his l winning form within few days. l Many fans ask about the Barons, chiefly the cause of their poor playing | of late The team is simply in a slump 1 but the reason why they are making such pitiful defense is that the 1 pitchers and batters are having their 1 off day at the same time. Within l few days Moley will get his team back in their regular stride and then some
 more good playing can be expected. l Following the four games with the Chicks. the Barons return to Rick ! wood for pair of clashes with the l Chattanooga Lookouts and then Init 1 the trailn again for q few days

As pointed out in recent story in
 The Age Herald. the majority of the
 southern colleges will carry out their
 football schedules this fall Only one
 southern college, the University of
 Georgia, has made the frank state-
 ment that no effort will be made to
 continue athletics on account of the
 war.
 President Wilson and other notable
 men, high in military affairs. and with
 the nations welfare at heart, have is
 sued signed statements time and time
 again, urging all sports to be con-
 excuse for the discontinuance of the
 sports. They stimulate and not dis tract interest
 It is expected that great majority of the southern colleges will continue athletics throughout the war, no mat ter how long it may last The dis continuance of athletics by few col leges will however, so seriously crip- pie the intercollegiate contests that they will be held only on a smaller and unimportant basis
 The dctlOu Ol Lne OHlNeTSlly 1Ol Georgia will affect the schedules of several southern colleges, Alabama and Auburn both will lose an i'm portant game. Especially will the Alabama Georgia game cancellation
 work hardships on the Crimson as it
 will leave Birmingham without a Thanksgiving battle. Alabama. how
 ever, will probably arrange with some other college for game here on that date.
 Should Georgia's action be followed by a few other southern colleges, the greatest of the game will be ma terially weakened this year. It Is hoped they will follow the desire of our leaders.
 The resolutions adopted by the S. l.
 A. A. and distributed widecast over
 the south. are as follows:
 Resolved. That the executive com
 mttee of the Southern Intercolleg egiate Athletic association wishes to empha- : size the importance of maintaining full athletic activity in all our col leges and that normal conditions be preserved as far as practicable. To this end the committees urge that each member of the association exert itself especially to carry out this fall it's regular football schedule and all their other athletic sports The committee feels very strongly thar such policy is particularly urgen, and desirable at this time and it be- leves that the colleges owe it as q high patriotic duty to offer their stu

Cecil Coombs and Danny Clark won the second game with the aid of base on balls and Elmer Knights balk which sent Danny over with the winning run After Knight had passed Johnston, Lord Cecil pounded triple to right-center scoring Johnston. Coombs was out at the plate trying to stretch the hit into homer. Clark then slammed to right for three bases. He scored on Knights balk. Those two long drives and the Traveller pitchers mistake. returned Carmen Hill the winner Carmen called heavily upon his support to aid him and they put it over, for the Travellers hit him hard In almost every inning. Ellis, Coombs and Webb all had busy day pulling down line drives from Traveller bats.
 COOMBS SAVES GAME
 Coombs saved the game for Hill in the seventh when he backed to the score board to take Wares drive. There was a runner on second and hit would have tied the score.
 Fast fielding by Webb in the fourth inning held the Travellers to one tally. With one out Covington tripled to cen ter. Manning fired low, hard liner to right-center It looked like an extra base hit. but Webb got to 1t and caged 1t for sacrifice fly.
 In the fifth, Ellis took in Knights hard drive, which looked good for three bases.
 BARONS HIT HARD
 The Barons had little better luck with their drives. the Traveller outfielders per- forming several highway stunts but when ~EKnight's control failed him in the sixth and he served up cripples to Coombs and Clark, they busted the ball far out of reach.
 Hill and Comstock were the only two of Moley's pitchers who showed any class whatever in this series.
 Elmer Ponder was no more effective in the first game than he was when he started against the Travellers on Thurs day. In the second inning they loaded the bases with but one out, but his mates pulled him through. In the third he got in trouble, and one of his mates, Danny Clark, made 1t worse by pulling a wild heave that let in two runs. Four hits with that error let four runs go over.
 LOVELESS WILD
 Bob Loveless relieved Ponder and was even wilder than the proverbial jackrab- bit, but the Travellers ran the bases reck- lessly after he had walked them on and his mates pulled him through until the seventh inning, he then developed too much control, serving the ball right down the middle. With two on, he offered Chief Ben Tincup a fast one and the Chief rode it to center field for homer. . Lou North was a puzzle to the Barons when they had men on, as they fre- cuently did. Ten of them died on bases for lack of a punch to put them over. The lone run was the result of the base on balls given to Eddie Mcdonald in the eighth. Eddie had been spiked and after he had strolled up the line, Molesworth sent Karl Black out to run for him. Karl stole second while Johnston was \ striking out. He advanced on Coomb' S infeld out and scored on Clarks single to left. $-
