ported to Manager Mike Donlin, but never put on uniform Manager Donlin de- cided to ask waivers on him, and he was eagerly gobbled up by the Nashville team, which is shy of outfielders
 Knisely is a former teammate of Man ager Roy Ellam, having been a member of the Birmingham Barons when Roy was shortstopping under Molesworth Roy is tickled to death that Pete is com
 ing to Nashville and says that the Vols are getting a mighty good man in Peter. Roy says he knows Pete will be satisfied and will give the Vols his best efforts
 Last season Knisely played in 12O games, was at bat 416 times, scored 57 runs, got 123 hits, 17 of which were two- haggers, four triples and five home runs. He hit for 163 total bases. He got 20 sacrifice hits and stole II bases. His bat ting average. was .295.
 Pete is slugger and usually hits the ball hard, being dangerous. man in the pinches He is also great from defen- slve point of view, and can cover the outfield as good as any man in the league. Pete has been accused of having a bad arm but last season when the Vols were in Memphis Pete threw Gus Will Hams out at the plate on fly which went to deep center. No. Pete's flipper is still as dangerous as it has always been. He is being counted on as one of the Vol regular outfielders this year.

A BARON A DA Y
RAY JANSEN, UTILITY PLAYER

At last something peculiar has been found about one of the players on the Baron roster Ray Jansen, the big fel- low trying to win the utility player S berth on Moley's team, has played in towns with more peculiar name than any other member of the squad.
 Jansen has been awarded this hanor No other man on the squad can name even one town with a name which will come up to some of those which Jan- sen played for during his varied ca reer
 Raymond William Jansen Is the way his name is on his contract. He was born in St. Louis, Mo, and resides there throughout the winter. He is married but has no children.
 Now, here's the funny part of Jan sens career He began playing in the ranks of professionals back in 1911 with the Paragould club in the Quinine league which is the same as the Arkansas State league. In 1912 he performed again for Paragould until about August, when he was traded to the Keokuk club in the Central association.
 He played good ball with Keoiuk and was drafted by the Pittsburg Pirates. He received a trial in the spring of 1913, but was farmed out to Wheeling in the Central league. In 1914 he was with Fort Wayne and Saginaw in the South Michigan league.
 In 1915 he was traded to the Sherman, Tex, club in the Western associa tion. In 1916 he went to Denison in the same league.
 He was the property of PittsblIrg from the fall of 1912. This year he will arob- ably perform in the role of utility play CT for Moley provided. of course, he shows the sufficient material.
 Jansen is a big fellow, about 6 feet 2 inches tall and will weigh close to the 1S5-pound mark. He is fighting hard for a berth and from his showing thus far he looks to be a mighty good man for the utility role.
 Jansen originally started as an in- fielder in baseball, but injuries to play CTS the clubs he was with forced him to try his hand at other jobs. This

 The entire party is 2S strong. 1 Bill Clymer, the pilot of the Colonels | is supposed to be one of the greatest
 managers in minor league baseball. He has won six pennants in 15 years in the game as a boss.
 Gus Williams, the star outfeder of the Vols last season, is with the Col
 onels this year. He is playing right field. His terrific hitting will be remembered l by fans as he broke up many a game between the Vols and Barons last year with his timely wallops.
 | Hub Perdue, another former Southern l leaguer, is with the Colonels. Hub will
 work in one of the games against the BaronS.
 l Moey also has quiet a reputation for
 winning flags and, plotting winning az gregations, and the fact of the two pilots opposing each other is interesting. Moley has the reputation of being the best pilot in the Southern, while Clymer enjoys that distinction in the American associa tion.
 The games promise to he real battles and the fans will miss rare treat if they fail to turn out. The weather man has issued the fair weather sign and it looks as though old Redwood will be the scene of a regular game before the opening of the Southern league circuit.

Tuscaloosa, March 29 - Especially Alabama's inner defenses blew in the first inning this afternoon and allowed the Barons to count four markers, but the colIegans settled down thereafter and outplayed their opponents through seven innings of play. The final score was to 3, with Moley's men on the long end of the results.
 Turkey" Roman went the entire nine innings, and while his offerings were touched frequently by the visitors, he was strong in pinches after the first inning Lovelace and Hill took turns in slabbing for Moley, but neither proved difficilt for the Crimson. A total of nine bingles were registered from their delivery
 The Barons got busy in the first go round and threatened to make farce of the occasion. Caton drew a walk, and Dock Johnston followed wi.h a bingle to left. Caton started for third and scored when Shakleford threw badly to Sessions. Coombs singled to left and Johnston counted. Haworth followed with another safety and immediately purloined second. On the throw to catch Coombs, Styles bobbled and the runner was safe. With two down Pratt fum- hled Smiths grounder and Haworth counted.
 The Barons' final score came in the next frame An infield error gave Caton life Johnston sent him to second with sacrifice. Coombs walked. Bowman then shot a fast high one which Styles missed and Coombs counted.
 single by Boone and 8 screaming triple by Hamilton gave Alabama her first counter. In the seventh two more were added. Boone singled. Cargile doubled and Boone scored. Cargile took third on Styles infield out and scored on an error by Caton.

Carlton Molesworth and his Barons ar rived from Tuscaloosa late last night after defeating the University of Ala
 bama nine yesterday afternoon in spir- tied little contest. The squad is in good
 shape for the contest this afternoon with
 the Louisville Colonels of the American association.
 The Colonels, headed by Manager Bill Clymer, arrived in town last night about
 lO:3o o'clock from Athens, Ga. The team is stopping at the Florence hotel Manager Clymer stated last night tha; he did not know who he would send to
 the hill to oppose the Barons in the frs: engagement. The Colonels are here again tomorrow
 The probable lineup of the Colonels | is as follows: Williams, if; Bates, If. 1 Compton, cf,; Kirke, h.; Clemons and Crossin, C.; Corridor, Sb. Mccarthy, 2b. Roach, SIS.

 The Colonels are a good representa- ton of an American association team Iney are the pennant WlnnerS Of last years race and the team is practically intact
 Moley returned early yesterday morn ing from Columbus. Ga, where he had been for the past several days, and inn mediately left for Tuscaloosa with the team. He could not be reached last night but it is thought that Arthur Johnson will start the fracas this afternoon on the hill Arthur will not hurl the en- tire game, however. Elmer Ponder will
 most likely be his other selection. Moley will use his best strength against

accounts for the fact why he is now styled as utility player.
 Ray is determined to stick with the Barons. He likes Birmingham and says he's sure he can play the brand of ball sufficient to win a permanent job. Ray came to the Barons from the Pittsburg Pirates in the deal whereby ButIeigh Grimes became a member of Jimmy Cal lahans major leaguers.
 But mind you Ray is not cverconfi- dent. He has good batting eye and looks to be a. mighty fine man for the utility role. It looks as though Moley will select him to fill the shoes as ''chief helper" Last year the Barons needed a utility player mighty bad and Moley knew it as well as anyone, but it couldn't be helped This year, how ever, will find the Baron chieftain ready with a competent man to fill the gap caused by the loss of one of hi regulars by injuries or sickness.

EXTREMELY BAD TASTE

1t was an exhibition of extremely bad taste for
ber of the Russian commission visiting this country to
discuss the pickeng Of the white house by lot of mis-
guided women, and to commend them for insulting the
president of the United States whom they were calling
upon at the time N A. Besserabof became an accessory
to the deed when he commended the suragete who
ried the insulting banner The incident shows however
the effect i'll advised movements and disoyal sentiments
may have, and how far they may reach The woman
bearing the banner probably had intention of inurng
America in the eyes Of the world but only to annoy the
president and if possible induce him to do something he
otherwise would not do In this case the woman and
those with her using exactly the same tactics prac
ced by the kaiser when he attempts to conquer the
world through terrifying it. 1t is hoped in the interest of
good government the incident closed with the chief of
police forbiddng the pcketng of the white house. Just
now the country has something important than ma
tional suffrage which can well wait until the people have
taken of the 1t will keep year or two and
if the militant suragettes not squeched now it will
