Among the Bleacherites Fair Hits and Foul Chatter Garnered From the National
 Pastime

Glazner will work for the Barons to- day and should annex another victory. Enright, who pitched three innings Wednesday. will more than likely oppose the blond hurler. Enright showed plenty of stuff here when he relieved Lohman and had it not been for his wild heave in the twelfth would probably have drawn tie. Finn still has Tomlin avail able, but the Lookout pilot has not been disposed to use him much this spring for some reason or other.
 After the game today the Barons jump to Memphis for one contest Sunday. re- turning here for a three-game series with Kid Elberfeld's Little Rock aggrega- ton, beginning Monday. Slap will prob ably work against the Chicks and Com stock VII open here against the Trav- elers Moley believes that. by pitching go vastly better and, consequently, he has not used Black or Long lately
 Billy Southworth has certainly got his peppers on the horsehide at last. Bill was the whole offense yesterday and his two extra base clouts saved Hills scalp. There is no more popular player in the Southern league than Bill. and his sue. cess always meets the approval of every body.
 Bernsen is figuring in the scoring every day now and the big frstsacker As be- ginning to live up to his name as hit ter. He was little late in coming around but he looks good on that first base at the present writing.
 Sir Patrick Duncan failed to slam out a hit yesterday, which is something un- usual for Pat The Baron sunfielder has

made the fans forget that Coombs ever played here, so satisfactory has been his work
 A few more good, clean fast games like that one yesterday will pull out capacity crowds. It's not so much a question of the home team winning as it is of speeding the contests along and keeping everybody full of pep and interest by fighting hard. Billy Carpen- ter may have his faults as an umpire but we've got to hand it to him when it comes to getting the batters on their toes. The absence of wrangling is an = other noticeable feature of the last three games that has left pleasant taste in everybody's mouth.
 After four defeats, Carmen Hill final ly managed to emerge a winner yester- day. Hill had been going good in all of his appearances but loose playing behind him and lack of hitting on the part of his teammates has more than discounted his effective work. Car men is naturally a winning pitcher and should cop a big percentage of his games from now on.
 Ray Jansen will hold down short, at least for sometime to come. Since Yorkey enlisted in the army Moley has about given up hopes of landing d regular shortfelder and will continue to use Jansen Ray stated yesterday that he hoped the fans and scribes would realize that he is not finished man in this position and would go light with him until he mastered the job. The utility man. got by in good shape yesterday.
 This boy Flagstead is some slugger. When he doesn't hit safe it's 10 to shot that somebody has made good stop and thrown him out. Graham is no slouch with the willow, himself. to say nothing oT A.rtie Phelan, the ex- Baron and erstwhile Cub. Judging from their work in the past three games the Lookouts should easily finish in the first division.

The entry list contains the cream of the driving talent on the dirt track courses of America. Chevrolet has made his name a fixture in the minds of the racing enthusiasts by his heady and clever driving in important motor classics during the past 10 years, and he has chalked up two or three big vic- tories, including win at the Cincinnati speedway Memorial Day 250-mile race last May. Fred Horey who was award ed the dirt track title in 1916, is also starter, and Horey and his record hold ing Fiat are being backed by many a race fan of Birmingham to cop the heavy honors and cash. Clark, who will also drive Case, and the Briscoe team, composed of Ellingboe and Toft, are cer- tain to make things mighty interesting, while Hugdahl in the famous Maxwell, and Willard, Soules, Giroux and Endi- colt are tried and true veterans and are dangerous competitors at any stage.

 The race is at a mile and quarter and is worth approximately s20,ooo. or which the winner will get about $l6'ooo' making it the richest event of the year. Of the remainder of the purse, $25o0 goes to the horse running second, slooo to the third horse. while the fourth horse saves his stake.
 Of the 10 entrants nine are colts, the only filly being Viva America, and she
 is regarded as doubtful starter. All will start except Viva America with II. and Exterminator with IA up. The latter horse was today substituted by his owner. w. S.

 TRACK IN GOOD SHAPE
 The track was reported in good con dition last night by a number of drivers who visited the course during the day and tested out their speed vehicles. Hugdahl, Horey, Ellingboe and Toft were at the grounds early in the day, while Clark remained at the garage giv- ing his Case No. , a final touch.

Plenty of water and dust-killing preparation was put on the course last night and it Is expected that the Gust dogs will be able to put over some new marks this afternoon.
