latory game. Incidentally, Dan Pfenninger, who refused to call and forfeit the game when the Abbotecrs stalled so promiscuously here was one of Wednesdays umpires. He was on the base-line, however, and had no part in bringing the game to such an abrupt end.
 the nature of a joke before the rain and the languidness of the Little Rockers brought it to a climax. The Rarons cinched the affair in the very tlrst frame. Evans was sent to the hill by the Little Rock chieftain and he was pauper when it came to stuff. He walked Stewart, the first man to face him, and Krehmeyer gained access to the paths by vir- tue or Shortstop Jackson's error. Emery was also patient and drew a pass, this wildness filling the bases. Tommy Taylor the Terrible Texan then ambled up. unwound himself for corkScreW swing and drove the ball to the walls in left center. Be- fore the pellet could be retrieved and relayed, Thomas answered present at the home plate, driving in three runs ahead of him.
 Barons Run Up Total
 The Dutchmen ran their total up
  Dickerson was sent Tn to relieve the unsuccessful MT. Evans. Dickerson walked Eberhard and Stewart to start the inning off, and both men scored on singles by krehmeyer, Emery and Bernsen.
 They added another in the third. after the Razorbacks had revived slightly and sent in couple of tal- lies themselves. With such a good lead in the first half of the third Mike got a wee bit careless, walked g man, uncorked wild pitch. allowed couple of singles and Gooch was guilty of a wild peg.
 The seventh and final Baronial ral- ley came as a result of a base on balls to Brenner, a stolen base by the new Baron and a one-ply wallop by Gala gher, who played left field for the locals, and who incidentally got two safe hits out of as many times at bat.
 The siege of the Little Rockcr s will be continued today when they meet the Barons in the second game of the series, Wheeler will probably work for the locals.

1 STRIBLING- G-GARCIA
 BOUT POSTPONED
 UNTIL SEPT. I9.
Frankie Garcia Will Probably Meet Eddie. CouIon at the
 B. A. c. Monday Night

Boxing fans who have been anticI- pating seeing the battle for the southern featherweight championship received little setback yes- terday by the announcement that the Garcia Stribling fracas has been postponed week at the request of Stribling, who received a torn liga- ment in his fight with Fearless Ferns in Macon last Monday.
 Upon receiving credentials show ing that Stribling was really handi- caped, B. A. c. officials granted his request, and the bout will be held the following Monday, September 19, in- stead of next Monday
 In place of next Mondays fight Frankie Garcia will meet the best boy obtainable, most likely Eddie Coulon, of New Orleans If the off, ficials of the Athletic club are for tunate enough to secure the services of Coulon, local fans will witness one of the really great bantams of today, as Coulon has fought every top notch boxer of his class and is still going strong.
 Garcia-Coulon battle should be a humdinger.
 He will fight here Monday and will remain over for the Stribling affair. The original preliminaries will be staged Monday. Dixie Jack Allen and John McGinty will meet Claude Will son in a three-rounder. while Kid Pike will meet Young Harlow in the other three-rounder, The first bout will start at S:50 D. m. sharp. Bis COG Seals will referee the semi final and final bouts

nv HENRY VANCE


 Paraphrasing a well-known popu- lar song of vintage of many years gone, all shall join the chorus; "After the stall is over, after the rain drops fall" Kid Elberfeld Scrappy Moore and company stalled themselves into a forfeited loss Wednesday afternoon and umps Corcoran awarded the contest to the Barons by to score.
 The Kids rheumatic joints told him fit was going to rain, and rain hard. His ball club was hopelessly behind, the necessary five innings had not been played, and those joints had never lie dto the Kid. The edict went forth for a stal1ing process and the Razorbacks carried out instructions to a T. The effort was so fragrant, however, that after due warning the 1.aps gave the Barons the game by "a 80 score.
 Travellers on Run
 At the start of the fourth inning the score stood 7-2 in Birmingham s favor. and the skies elected a sprink- ling process, which grew more pro- nounced with every moment. Man ager Dutch Bernsen told his huskies to get out as soon as possible. Man ager Eberfield told his stalwarts to prolong the inning by putting Barons on base. With two ball clubs work ing at entirely cross-purposes and the shower gaining in momentum, the umps became peeved. The Lit tie Rockers tossed the ball around the infield, Scrappy Moore inspected St, and heaped abuse upon the Umps when he called for play. Dickerson had just started to pitch, and Stew art hit to short for an out. To kill time E1berfeld sent in Fields.
 Game Forfeited
 The new Razorback pitcher de- nivered five balls for a warm up and then tried purposely to pass krehmeyer, but the new Baron would not have it so, and struck out Emery hit an easy one to second but no attempt was made to retire him and the ball went for farcical hit. The Little Rock management then tried further stalling tactics The new pitcher was yanked and Rubber Jonnard walked into the box At this point the nausea which was reaching the epidemic stage in the stands, seemed to grow contagious fworking its way to the Umps. He fremoved his mask and announced l that Birmingham was winner by for felt.
 Following this bit of elocutionary tactics on the part of the umpire the crowd made a grand dive for trolleys and motors and the rain reached the torrent stage. It developed into a regular cloudburst, and many of the faithful fans were drenched before they reached cover
 Beats Chicks Record
 It was thought the height of stal Gng had been reached here severa weeks ago when Memphis stalled pronouncedly and untiringly until th rain arrived and saved 'em from de feat. But the Eberfeldings. ap. parently can give the Chicks card and shades and beat them at the dli

MINOR CHANGES IN GRID RULES

New York, September 7.-College football, without any of the radical changes suggested at the close of last season by coaches and experts, will open it's 1921 season in another fortnight. Practice has been started by college squads all over the country.
 Only few minor changes have been made in the official intercolle- gate rules. Suggestions were ad- vanced last spring for restrictions on the forward pass, and many other reforms which have necessitated rsdi- cal changes in the rules were out lined The rules committee decided, however, that the day for rules tinkering had passed and the changes they adopted clarify, rather than alter, the various rules.
 Principal Change
 One of the principal changes pro- Vides that in the event of the scoring of safety, the side which has made it shall put the ball in play by scrim- mage from first down at any place on it's 30-yard line. After a touch back, the ball still will be put in play on the 20-yard line.
 In rule 23, section 5, subdivision has been made. Division provides that the offenses of tripping, tack ling out of bonds, or throwing the player to the ground after the ball is dead, or any other unnecessary roughness, shall be penalized 15 yards from the spot of the foul. Dl- ytciA p hot av-,, running into or diving into, or throw ing ones self against a player. obvi- ously out of play, either before or after the ball has been declared dead, or unnecessarily roughing man who has made forward pass, may be deemed as unnecessary roushness, for which the penalty is loss of IS yards from the spot where ball was put in play.
 In rule f. section 4, it is made clear that in the event of a fair catch being made after the expira- tion of time only the kick shall be allowed and that the period shall end as soon as the ball is dead after the kick has been made.
 Regarding Passes
 Rule s, section IS, has been chang ca So that the pail IS declared dead when a forward pass becomes an il- legal pass, so that the rule covers both incompleted and illegal passes. A custom which has governed the toss for goal or kickoff at the be- ginning of game has been legalized by change in rule ', section l. This now provides that the referee shall toss coin and designate which of the two captains shall call and that once the choice has been made, it is irrevocable.
 In rule g, section ,, an addition has been made providing for a penalty of five yards if more than one man of the attacking side IS in motion at the moment the ball is put into play, the penalty to be measured from the spot where the ball was put in play. Rule 14, section ?, now reads that Ii atm the kickoff the ball goes out of bounds before it crosses the goal line 1t shall be brought back. In rule IF, section 3, having to do with the forward pass, the word "balf' has been substituted for pass" a technical revision. A few other changes or little consequence from the spectators standpoint, als ) have been made.
