'DEbUS CALLED BY
! LOCAL DRAFT BOARD
Baron Shortstop Leaves To-
day for Chicago to Re
port for Army Duty

Adam Debus has played his last
game for Birmingham, at least until
after the war. Yesterday the speedy
Frenchman received word from his
draft board in Chicago ordering him
to report at once for examination and
immediate service. Debus will more
than likely leave Birmingham at noon
today, arriving in the Windy City to-
morrow morning.
The announcement that Debus has
been called to the army will be re-
ceived with mingled joy and regret by
the many local friends of the Baron
shortfielder; joy that he goes to par
ticipate in the real worlds series
over there. and regret that his de-
parture takes him from our midst at
this stage of the Southern league race
Debus came to Birmingham from
Pittsburg, where he played about 40
games with the Pirates last season
as part payment for Kid Cation. After
getting away to bad start, he settled
down and on the last two or three
appearances has shown signs of de-
veloping into nifty ball player.
Here's hoping that Debus bats over
800 against the Kaiser on the western
front.

Baronia1 prospects, will not affect the
team materially, as Ray Jansen can
hold down short in regular style and
hit as well as any of them.
Although Moley used Whitley Glaz-

is probable that he will again send
the local wonder back into the box
for a second try at the squirting Peis
Whitley was touched up rather freely
in the second round yesterday, but it

Schepner in tho ribs and Kitchens fol-
lowed with single, scoring Compton.
Robertson sent Duncan back after his
long fly. In the Barons' half Duncan
led off with smash to the center gar
den for one bag. Southworth flew out
to his own territory. Danny Clark drove
one to center for a single. Debus came
through with a terrific clout between left
and center for two bags, scoring Duncan
but Clark was nabbed trying to slide in
home. Compton made fine running
catch of Haworths drive for the last
out. The rain, which had been dribbling

Before the deluge, the Barons and fels
hit off together for two rounds, with
little advantage on either side. Moley
sent his youthful prodigy, Glazner, to
the mound against temperamental Dickie
Robertson, "Jawn" Dobbs' star finger.
In the first stanza Edison Hemingway,
the dashing ex-Baron, went out from
Glazner to Bernsen. Gilbert poled
high fly to Southworth in right. Bar
bare lifted one to Patrick Duncan for
the third cut. Altenberg, first up for the
Barons, drew a pass, but was forced at
second on McDonald's grounder to short.
Bernsen grounded to Hemingway and
a double play resulted.
In the second frame both teams dis
played some pep. Eddie Edmondson beat
out a grounder to second. Bluhm flew
out to right. Compton drove single to
