.Dreyfuss Here Looking Ouer Baron Players

Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pittsburg Pirates, is in Bir- mingham, "just looking over the players. Whats troubling local bugs is just who Dreyfuss really has his eye on.
 There's Barnhart Barney is the property of Dreyfuss, he having been loaned to Birmingham soon after the season began. Barnhart has been play ing good ball with the Barons and there's a chance that he might be taken back to Pittsburg this fall for another chance with the Pirates in 1921.
 Then there's Stevenson. Hairston. Griffith. Morrison, Glazner and any number of players on whom Dreyfuss might be looking with a sweet eye. Any player on the Baron team, with the exception of Ellis and Peters is at the disposal of Dreyfuss. All he has to do is to make his pick and the player is his.
 PIRATES NEED SHORTSTOP
 AND PITCHERS, SAYS PEET
 The man whom many pick
 ing to go up this season Is Tom
 Stevenson, shOr1stOp. According to
 Bill Peet, sporting editor of the
 Pittsburg Dispatch, the Pirates are
 in need of good shortstOp, as well
 as pitchers. These needs might be
 satisfied right here in Birmingham.
 There are at least two pitchers on the Baron staff who stand good cha ce of going up. These are Morrison and Glazner. Both are promising young sters. They have plenty of stuff on the ball and should make Dreyfuss or any other big league owner good pitchers.
 Bill Peet further hints that Dreyfuss might be here to be sure that Barn hart is to return to Pittsburg this fall It seems that the Pirate moguls have been keeping up with Barney since he was turned over to the Barons and that they are pleased with his work here.
 Dreyfuss left Pittsburg a week ago to look over promising young players in minor league baseball He arrived in Birmingham yesterday morning. Ho was out at Redwood yesterday, where he saw Barnhart and others in action

Review of Situation.
Evidently the western crop is now
moving fast" Haskins said to himself,
"and the Chicago car-lot market has
been the first to feel the effect in a
marked degree"
Rapidly he went over in his mind the
crop conditions, aided by the car-lot
summary, Weekly Reviews, and a spe-
cial article on the potato situation in
a recent issue of a farm paper.
He noted the size of the crop COM
pared with the previous year and the
amount shipped from each state for the
season, to date. Nor did the attitude
of growers, buyers and shippers escape
his attention. He took into account
the car supply and the weather condi-
tions which, at that particular time,
were both fairly favorable. He noted
conditions in eastern shipping sections
and consuming markets.
Having reviewed the whole situation,
with the aid of market data such as
any producer can secure with little
trouble, he was able to reach an in
telligent conclusion. Experienced as
he was, he detected the "hinge" on
which the market was turning and said
to himself: Chicago car lots are off
another dime; the market is going
down. All things considered, as the
weakness isn't extreme, I think I will
hold on to my potatoes little longer,
for believe things will look better in
few days."
Summarizing Many Facts.

those in the daily papers, those ISSUED
