Brown Parkes has been negotiating with Ed (strangler) Lewis and his mana ger, Billy sandow, ever since Lewis de- feated Freberd here. He has made lib- eral propositions, offered big purses and brought everything possible to bear, and as yet he has received no direct answer.
 Parkes has not given up all hope of matching Lewis and Zbyszko here Labor Day for the championship of the world, but at the same time he is taking steps to insure local fans of the biggest wrestling bout here for that date the south has ever seen. Ed Lewis, Joe Stecher or Earl Caddock will be seen here on that date against zbyszko if any of tfsese men or their managers have drop of sporting blood in their veins.
 PARKS CHALLENGES
 Saturday Promter Parkes sent two wire challenges to Stechers manager and to Caddock's manager offering them big purse to meet Zbyszko here Labor Day.
 His wires follow:
 Joe Hetmanaek, Manager Joe stecher.

 FAVORS ED LEWIS
 "Of course had rather get Lewis here than either Caddock or Stecher, said Promoter Parkes in commenting on the prospective Labor Day bouts. And l know that the local fans had rather see Lewis so against Zbyszko. as such bout would be for the championship of the world. A match between Zoyszko and Lewis would be absolutely the best wrestling card the world has to offer. Still, if Lewis continues to turn deaf ear to my propositions and ignores them there Is nothing left for me to do but start negotiations with some of the other topliners of the game
 Local fans will probably feel some dis appointment because of the fact that Parkes is seeking to bring Stecher or Caddock here to meet Zbyszko instead of Lewis and it is natural that they should be- For a Zbyszko-Lewis setto would be for a title. Title bouts, of course, are always in demand. This disappoint- ment is even keener than it would other wise have been. because of the fact that Zbyszko's challenge to Lewis was read at the last bout here and the bug colony had visions at that time of Lewis &C., ceptance and also visions of the mighty Pole and the "Sstrangler'' battling on the mat at the Jefferson theatre for the championship of the world.
 Still, Mr. Parkes has brought every scheme known into play in hopes of get ting Lewis to accept Zbyszkos challenge and as yet these offers have had no eff feet on the champion. Parkes stated Sat urday that while he was negotiating with Stecher and Caddock, he had not given up hope entirely of enticing

BARONS NOT ELIMINATED FROM
 RACE FOR SOUTHERN PENNANT'
Men Have Good
 Chance to Nose Out in Front-Crackers Must Be Stopped-All Indications Point to Thrilling Finish

Despite the fact that critics
 throughout the south are counting
 the Birmingham Barons out of the
 fight for the Southern league pen
 nant, Carlton Molesworth's aggre-
 gation has yet to be dealt the blow
 which will eliminate them from
 further chance. Forty more games
 remain to be played and should the
 Barons continue at the present
 pace 1t is probable that they may
 nose out In the lead in what would
 be the greatest race ever wit
 messed.
 favor. First of all, one of Moley's teams has yet to fail to finish strong. The chubby chieftain seldom gets his aggre- gation to move steadily until several months of the season have passed. Judg- ing from the Barons play of late he has finally placed his machine in high gear and is moving along at steady clip.
 Here's another big pointer favoring the Barons; Molenys men have Al more scheduled games. Of this number q are at Redwood. The Atlanta Crackers have 10 more contests, while only Il of these are. on the Crackers home lot. The New Orleans Pelicans have 39 more games with K at homo

So the Barons must do better than this, Should they win 34 of the A games the Crackers and Pels lose 15 each of their to- tai scheduled, then the clubs would stand like this on September 15:
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-08-05
MUST STOP CRACKERS

That's all right. It's the Crackers that must be stopped Franks men, the rec ords show, play better ball at home, but . their work on the road is better than any other team in the league. The Crackers must then be slowed at home and on the road for the Barons to draw any closer.
 The Crackers top the Barons six full games today. The Pels lead the Crackers by the slight margin of half game. It can be figured how many games the Barons must win while the Pels and Crackers are winning or losing
 Should the Barons win 90 of their re- maining A games; the Crackers should lose 15 of their 40. and the Pels should lose 15 of their 39, then here's how they'd stand.

BARONS PLAY MORE

The fact that the Barons play more games than either of their two rivals for the rag is all for Moley. The more games the Barons play the better the chance to increase their standing.
 But the big point in favor of the Barons is the number of games al home Statistics show that the Pelicans have won less than half their games on the road. The Crackers, however, have won the majority of their contests on for- eign soil and so have the Barons.
 The Pels play their best at home. The Crackers rank next and then come the Barons. Now, should the Pels play to their stride of previous road trips they are due to lose the majority of their "A games on foreign soil.
