Andalusia Defeats
 Troy Outfit, 4 to l
 Big Series Is Next
By FOWLER DUGGER

Andalusia, August 24.-(Speeial.,- ,-- Even though outhit Andalusia played real baseball and won the opening game of the Troy series Monday tft ernoon at Troy, A. to 1. This is the kind of playing that has made Andalusia tn, champion of the south Alabama teams. Playing heads up" taking advantage of opponents boobies, An- dalusia has won 42 games, lost l9 and tied 3.
 The locals will enter the Union- town series with their regular line up. Hutchcson and Richardson haN- ing 'rejeined the team, after being ness. However, it is doubtful if Richardson goes back to his old pp- sition at second-not while Parks $ playing the game he is. Hutcheson will hold down the not corner. Jack Lasseter will be back in few days and take up his old position at first. Wagner will go to left field whsn Lasseter returns, unless something unforeseen happens.
 Much Excitement
 Each day brings more excitement over the big series to the top. An dalusia will resemble >"The Deserted Village" next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and they will go to Montgomery both by train and auto. The Rotarians and kiwanians, prob ably will have thelr luncheons at Montgomery during the games, and local fans will doubtless give the Andalusia players. an elegant ban quet following the series.
 Not only are male fans going 10 be in attendance at Southside park, but women will be there in large numbers. They are coming to stay the full time and they have learned more baseball this summer than ever before, and they are. pretty well up on all points of the great na- tional pastime.
 The Andalusia team, with Manager Henderson and several others will leave for the scene of conflict Sun day afternoon and will be rested ana ready for the fray Monday morning.
 From youth through old age there is one thought uppermost on every mind, and that is peat CniontoWn,s and they think in Andalusia that tins very thing is going to take place. The Central and Louisville and Nash vile are both being consulted as 10 a special train to carry the many reoters.

 Away Month
 After leaving Birmingham tonight, the guardsmen will be away from their native state until the latter part of September.
 Under the coaching of Sergt R. E. Hunt, who for several years WAS southern champion rifle shot, the Alabama guardsmen have developed unusual accuracy at the targets and bid fair to raise Birmingham from the bottom of the list to the top. The Alabama shooters will compete against such picked teams as that of the navy, army, marine and naval stations, and various state teams.

DIXIE JACK ALLEN TO MEET LEONARD
 AT B. 4. (. MONDAY
Darlington to Meet Langer In Semi-Final Bout-Brady
 on Card
ny MAnvIN M,CAnrHN

Dixie Jack Aliens sensationaI showing against Sailor simpson al the Athletic club Monday night prob ably set Tommy Tompkins, B. A. C. matchmaker, to thinking. for he promptly went about the business of securing a good opponent for Allen for l0-round final bout at the To- cal club next Monday night.
 And Tommy's choice was none oth- CT than Young Leonard Of New or leans, one of the really promising light welterweights of the Crescent City.
 Allen landed his famed right flush on the jaw of Sailor simpson Monday night, and the Pensacola tar went down for the long count. Allen made a great showing In that bout, and To- cal fans, no doubt, are of the opinion that he deserves a final fight at the E. A. c.
 Leonard has met and defeated such men as Sailor Blanque, Young Wal lace, Sailor Rivet and Red shannon. He is hard puncher and speedy 13s pounds. Allen will probably weigh a pound or two more more than that.
 Harrington Ns. Langcr
 In the semi final bout Dummy Bar rington will meet Billy Langer of Omaha, Neb., in six-round scrap. Isnger blew into town day or two ago and issued a defi, so Tommy Tempkins arranged a bout with Bar rinston for the visitor.
 Jack Brady the Bessemer flash, will meet some good boy in the four round bout, probably John McGinty of Pratt City, McGinty is the same hard -hitting lightweight who has shown such rapid improvement dur ing the past six mouths. If Me Ginty is not matched with Brady, some other hardy, two- listed scrap per will be secured, states Tommy Tompkins.
 Allen to Scrap
 Red Allen, the popular little, light weight who has shown such game ness and natural ability will be matched with the toughest light weight Tommy Tompkins can find, states the B. A. c. impresario. Red hasn't met the man who can hurt him yet. and Tommy is to find some one who can give Allen genuine battle.
 The fights Monday night will con stitute a card every bit as attractive and genuinely good as that of last Monday night, states Tommy Tomp- kinS

 Bcrnsen Needs Three
 Dutch Bernsen, the home run king of the Southern league for this season, has gone gunning for Bing Miller's record, and if Dutch can lam out three more circuit wallops between now and closing time, he will be recognized as the greatest home-run swatsmith ever sticking spike in the Mar tin loop.
 Last year Bing Miller hung up now home-runf record for the league, when as a Little Rock gardened, he slammed out 1S dur ing the summer. Dutch poled out his seventeenth circuit clout in the first game of the double header with Atlanta Wednesday. He needs only two to tie Bing's mark, and only three to estab- fish new record. It stands to reason that old Dutch Cleanser will set new mark, as he has 2S more games in which to get three,

had the pleasure of spending a month in the editors home town while the Crackers were training there in 1920. and found it the most hospitsble little city ever visited. He will spend few days here, then visit Chattanoo- ga, and will return in week or so to Bay St. Louis, Cholly Franks home town. MT. Moreau tells me that Cholly couldn't wait for the baseball season to close, and is at hfs winter home down there now.
 Emery Sets New Record
 Spoke Emery, the deer footed center fielder of the Birmingham club, set new record for con secutive thefts in one inning. when he stole second, third and home in the sixth frame of Wednesdays game. It was the first time I've ever seen a man steal three in row, and if the stunt has ever been duplicated 1t has passed my notice.
