major matters came up. Then Frank and Mayer took charge.
 Injustice Done Emery
 The Sporting News comes forth with statement this week in answer to a question. which does Herrick Emery centerfielder for the Barons, an injustice. If the Sporting News story was au-- thentic 1t would make Emery an ancient, when as a matter of fact he is a comparative young ster.
 Asked for Emery's career. the Sporting News said he staSted out with Birmingham in 1908 and was farmed to Meridian, go- ing from there to Brantford and ether clubs in the minors, and finally drifting back to Bir- mingham in 1921.
 According to that information Emery has been in the game 8 years. The Sporting News got Herrick Emery confused with B. S. Emory, the third baseman. who was with Birmingham in 1909.
 Questions Answered
 Question: Where is Red Day. who used to pitch for the At lanta club?"
 Answer: Red has budded out Into manager. He was placed in charge of the Charlotte club in the Sally league when Hooper was fired.
 
 Former Baron Sold
 Tommy Long, the left-handed finger, who was formerly on the Birmingham pay roll, and who was traded to Louisville few years ago. will step into q big-league berth near the close of this season. Tommy has been purchased from the Louisville Colonels by the St. Louis Browns.
 Hub Perdue now alleges that some of his players have been looking on the wine when 1t Is red. It should he an easy mat ter for Hub to catch 'em doing stunts like that.
 Trouble In Sally League
 Looks like the managers are en- counterfng all kinds of trouble in the Sally league this season. Three pilots have been relieved of their commands since the sea son started Ezra Midkiff, for mer Baron, was given the gate at Charleston; Al Bridwell was forced to relinquish the reins as pilot of the Spartenburg outfit and Eddie Hooper was denoted at Charlotte. and after the de- motion decided to leave the league flat on it's back.
 CIarkie Subs for Bernie
 Captain Dutch Bernsen, Ba- ronial first sacker. was forced from the fray Thursday when a thumb was split in infield prac- tice. Dutch gave the glove to his understudy, Clarke, the Baronlal utility man, and Stump handled the throws in nice shape. This forced Moley to change his bat ting order. Tommy Taylor was given the cleanup role and Clarke batted next to Gooch.

Has Fought Many Bnttics

Has Fought Many Battles
 Hanlon says that since he en- tered the fight game in 1913 he has engaged in 121 fstic debates and that he has won 65 of these by knockouts.
 Since undergoing an operation in which he had tonsils and ade- holds removed, the scrapper has been recuperatins, and states that he will be ready to box again within two weeks. He has offers to appear in an Atlanta ring, and has won much pres tige there since his recent defeat of Larry Avera. He has received a bid for a scrap in Macon. too. but states he will probably meet some man in Birmingham before he goes to either of these places. Hanlon would like to meet Bat ting Kelly, master of Dummy Harrington, before he tries the Dummy gain, he says, but is willing to meet any man the B. A. c. authorities should choose as his opponent, providing he does not have to give away too much Welgnt.
 New Manager Takes Charge
 Bill Rairden, former catcher for the Cincy Reds and New York Giants. is the latest stalwart to have the appellation of manager tied to him by the Atlanta Cracker bosses. Some say it is just another way Cholly Frank has of paying Bill a, fancy sal ary to backstop for him. There are those who assert that Frank is really the boss, while Rariden is manager in name only. in or der that he may be given a man agers salary and at the same time keep the Atlanta club with in the salary limit.
 It would take Sherlock to determine the Atlanta status. Sammy Mayer, who owns stock in the Atlanta club. has as much say about the running of the club as any one, say the wise ones. Cholly Frank rules with an iron hand when an iron hand is needed Dick Kaufman is the de- posed manager in name.
 Probs bly when anything im- portant is to be pulled off Messrs. Mayer, Frank, Kauff- man and Rariden will get their heads together and form them selves into a strategic board to attack the problem at hand.
 Bob Higgins thought he was manager of the Atlanta team last summer until one day when he was informed that he was just being kidded. Kaufman received the reihs at the time Bob was deposed, and has held them ever since, except when
