 Poncey's temperature was approxi- mately the same that greeted Admiral Peary when he sought shave at the North Pole There were but three warm persons in the whole blamed orchard, the Barons outfielding corps, these play CTS working up a fair amount of perspir- ation chasing the bingles made by the Crackers.
 Lefty Sugge, a pitcher noted for his good work when the sun is coming down in welcome gobs, was the mound selec- tion and immediately began to prove that the dopester who chirped that his good south finn would refuse to function in chilly temperature. was the prize fibber of the universe. What John didn't have on the ball would probably fill 8 gnat $ overcoat comfortably, and the Barons were mystified by the peculiar slants MT Suggs showed over
 DUTCH HITS ONE
 Five of the visiting batsmen fell by the strikeout rout, and but two of their hits should have landed safely. Dutclf Bernson pounded one in the opening frame that was hit in any league and Dick Traynor secured another in the ninth that was good anywhere, but nice fielding would probably have choked off the others Doc Newton's triple in the fifth was the result of a sharp wind and faulty judgment by Joe Guyon and Pug Allen fluked one off Kaufman In the eighth.
 After the first inning Suggs was never in any more danger and there was little doubt about the winning team.

He had been groggy since the Crackers began to hit him in the second, but the storm broke loose finally and old Doc was re- leved.
 FIERCE ATTACK
 The attack of the Frankmen was fierce, Red Wingo, Joe Guyon and Ollis F'uhr- man taking the lead in the sweet little game of rap. Guyon beat out couple of bunts for singles, adding a clean one to right in the sixth for good measure. Wingo connected safely three times in his four trials, one of his hits going to right field for a two-base poke. Fuhr- mans three hits were all clean, result ing in one run for the locals. Captain Dick Kaufman was responsible for a couple of the Atlanta talles, his single to right in the sixth driving across Guyon and Wingo. Stow and Wingo were other Crackers driving in counters.
 The control of the three pitchers was good when one considers the adverse weather conditions. A high wind. pack ing plenty of coldness, swept the field during the greater portion of the strug- gle and played the dickens with the Judgment of batted balls. The cold ap- peared to greatly affect the fielding Of the Barons and four errors were chalked against them. Graff's bad throw in the first was the only mscue to bar the fielding of the Frankmen.
 BARONS TAKE LEAD

 In the second, however, the Crackers combined two singles with a base on balls and "dumb-belr' play to shove over two runners. Kaufman was an in- field out for the start, but Mayer walked and went to third when Bobby Stow poked single between first and second, scoring when Silva's throw to third was wild, Stow stopping at second on the error. Newton then threw to the key stone to catch Bobby, but there was no one there to receive the toss and Stow went to third, scoring on Fuhrman's sim gle to center.
 NEWTON RELIEVED
 From this stage until the sixth the bat tie was real ball game. but the Crack CT artillery was then called for more ac- tion, and the end of the round found MT. Newton ready for the towel. Guvon, first up, crashed single to right and went to third when Wingo planted one in the same direction. Wingo took sec ond on a fake throw, Guyon being held at third. Kaufman singled to right and the bases unloaded. Dick reaching second when Silva toyed with the apple. Mayer
