Al Glarksdals Jackson S
 in center field. He came into the plate standing up, and the Barons boasted three homers off the left armed delivery of the Rube in one game, something rarely seen in this mans league.
 A Poor start
 Getting back to the distastefui first inning. however, 1t must be ad- mitted the Barons made the poor est start they could possibly put on display Mcdonald was first up and he shot d grounder to Taylor. Toms throw to first was bit nigh, but Bernie should have smothercd it. ln- stead. he allowed the ball to slip through his digts, and Eddie went safe. He rambled to second when Moore was given base on balls, and both men moved up peg on a wild pitch. Harper's immaculate single to right brought Mack home with the fir st run. Boil grounded out to first, Wano then shot one to left, and after getting under the ball by good run, Pug Allen allowed it to trickie through his fingers for a huff and two scored. Brown followed this with an easy fly to right and the ball bounced from Silva's hands, while Wano romped home with the fourth run of the inning. A passed ball all lowed Brown to go to second, but Philip never lost his equilibrium, in spite of all this non support. He struck Sloan out and caused Land to lift an easy one to Allen for the re- tirement of the side. Clearly, how ever, it seemed the Barons had bad case of dropsy, and 1t didn't looK like there was much hope for their recovery.
 Barons Get Going
 With Merry pitching alright ball for three innings, however, the Moleys seemed to become inspired and in the third they went after friend Connie with full force. Sim gles by Bernsen, Taylor, Silva, anc Traynor in this inning. glaring err TOT by Boil and one by Wano netted the Moleys three runs. After Tray nor had come through with the fourth blow of the frame. the Kid derricked Connie and sent Robby to the hill. Allen greeted him with a sacrifice fly to left and the count was knotted.
 In the fourth Pie Traynor gave fandom a good exhibition of cloud climbing. He went up into the air with all the grace, ease and altitude of an air-plane, and then vol-planed back to earth with the ball safely in his possession. Fans probably haven't seen the like of that sensa : tional catch since Rickwood was built Oddly enough the sensational catch, which resulted in double play, came a few moments after Pie had sought to kick goal from afield on Lands grounder. Land gained first by virtue of this boot and Robinson shot a bat-breaking line drive over Pies head. Pie got q foothold on a lump of oxygen, leaped up and speared the ball with one- handed catch. He then ahot the ball to first for flashy double play and the retirement of the side.
 Doc Gets His Homer
 Doc Silva decided to put the Barons one run to the good in single handed fashion. Doc, too, had made a costly error, and to redeem him /. self he shot his famous line drive home-run past third. When Doc stepped across the pan after com pleting the circuit, the Barons were one run to the good, and the score stood 5 to in favor of the nome lings.
 Nothing happened until the sew enth to further bolster the score, put there was plenty happening to mako ones hair stand on end and cause q one-two pulse beat in the way ot cracklinr fielding. Traynor helped execute another lightning double play in the fifth and Harry Harper backed against the right fieid wAiis ana robbed Pug Allen of two bagger.

 A couple of singles and sacrifice ] fly added another marker to the Little Rockers total in the ninth, and helped lengthen what would otherwise have been brief encoun- 1 ter. as encounters go these days. It 1 usually takes over two hours to play
 a ball game, and even with the near l rally by the Travellers, the two teams got Friday afternoons affair out of their systems in one hour and fifty-sevcn minutes.
 The Tourists and Barons will close out their series this afternoon with single game at the Wood White hill will probably be sent to the hill for the locals, and the Kid may elect to give Connie Fields another shot a; he nIt :
