The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-07-19

the success his ball club had en- countered throughout the sum mer. They've played about 30 games, according to the old big league star, and won all but two.
 Saturday the Townley bunch had a game with Dixie's boys and decided to import a pitcher from Birmingham to beat 'em. They finally got Dummy Bar rington on the wire. and the Dummy agreed to go down there and pitch. Though few know it the local ring star has won al most as much fame in the pitch CTS box as he has with the padded leather. Dummy shipped to Townley, but got knocked out. The Sipseyites applied the wood to Dummys offerings in the fourth inning, and Dummy went down for the count.
 Deal BaIIed Up
 Several days ago dispatch came out of Little Rock that Ed die Mcdonald had been traded to the Mobile Bears for Guy Tut wiler The days rolled by and Eddie didn't appear in the Bear lineup When the Bears got to town Monday Boss Logan emitted the info that the Mcdonald Tutwiler deal was all an idle dream of some Little Rock scribe.
 On the same day the Bears hit town the news Is flashed that Iieady Eddie has gone to the Loo<outs to act as field captain. Those on the inside of the know say that the Irishman will be- come manager of the Lookouts after the present season ends. Strang Nicklin has finally come to the conclusion that he is not of the right sort of tempera- ment to run ball club, and 1t is said he's about ready to turn the job over to some good man. Eddie will probably set the job, as he has been connected with a num- Der of rumors of arrangements for the past several years.
 It is known that Freddy Graft. the veteran third -sacker wanted complete charge of the Lookouts while he was there, but that Nicklin didn't like the idea. and this ambition of Fred's caused the two to split, and induced Niclin to send him to Atlanta in trade for Daniel Boone.
 Another Ruinor Killed
 It has been whispered around for some time that the spectac- ular race Spencer Abbott is mak- ing with his Memphis Chicks, had caused the eyes of a number 2f pig league owners to be trained on Abbott The rumor was con sistent that the St. Louis Brown ownership had already decided to give Abbott a chance with the Browns next season. This bit of gossip was killed Monday, how ever, when the information was given out by Brown officials that Lee Fohl had been signed to manage the club for 1922.
 It's seldom that a minor league manager is given chance to handle big league outfit. Pants Rowland made such mess of t, and caused so much criaeism to he heaped upon the headFof Boss Comiskey. that other owners have been afraid to take the step since.
 
 Two former heroes of the Bar onial outfit who have been staring in the National League this season. ran into a bad day Monday, and got theirs in assort- ed packages. John Dewey Morri- son started the game for the Pi- rates and was knocked out of the box. Whitey Glazner was sent in to relieve him and the Giants also pounded Whitey from the mound. These two boys have been pitching sensational ball for the Corsalrs, but fate framed it up for em to get their bumps on the same afternoon.
 Dutch Bernsen pulled further away from Pug Allen Monday, when he damned out his thir- teenth circuit clout of the season. It was smash over the fence and into the corn field beyond the right walls
