the hands of one H. L. Emery, who moved over and caught the pellet as 1t was headed down the groove.
 In the eleventh inning, Bradley was Emery's victim, being robbed of cer- tain hit by the Baron flash.
 In the fourteenth inning. Emery capped the climax of perfect day afield by drive in his territory. It was the second crime committed against the Vol short- stop and to emphasize the theft of a base hit, Emery turned a somersault or two, 1 ending his wild flghe in a top spin on his right ear.
 | Emerys performance in the field was a round of one brilliant play after another. | In addition to his defensive work, this youngster made two pretty hits, l sTUFFY STEWART staged splendid performance around the keystone, % ac- cepting 14 chances without an error. His flashy fielding cut off at least three in- field hits for the Vols.
 Two hits and pair of stolen bags were also added to his collection of honors py stewart. one Of these thefts was prob. ably as weird an affair as will be seen rat Redwood this season, at least along base stealing lines.
 l If was in the third inning. Stewart was on second, playing a few feet away from the bag Statham made something dan 1 gerously near a balk and Stuffy was lcaught off the bag when the Vol hurler | tossed to Knaupp. Stewart stumbled and l fell as the Vol keystoner dashed at him. Stewart regained his feet and started Tor third .knaupp and Stuffy raced along about 10 feet with scarcely a foot be- tween them, when knaupp gave 1t up And tossed to Kane Then ensued hare and hound affair between the two bags that had the mob of fans yelling like so many lmaniaes Stewart must have fallen three ! times before he finally upset Kane and rested safely, pantingly on third, one stolen base to his credit. He deserved that bag. too.
 TOMMY TAYLoR'S offensive work was l enough to win favor for him yesterday. \ The poppy Texas Leaguer made four hits | out of five times at bat
 In addition, his edfensive work around the hot corner was great. lie made a stop of Knaupps hot ground CT in the eighth inning that was a beauty. Taylor .threw out Frierson going to second, and stewart, who re- ceived the throw, attempted to stoI l Knaupp at first, but Umpire Billy Me 1 Nan1aTa COuluii SCC tht oSNphS PteNS and the two Baronial infielders lost mighty pretty bit of defensive work
 Taylor certainly popped the infield up yesterday, and his presence at the hot corner should be a great help to the Barons this year.
 ISTELLBAUER, Vol right fielder performed bit of grand larceny him. self when he intercepted Gooch's fence bound drive in the seventh in ming and doubled Taylor off first Gooch was robbed of certain two bag.ger by the lanky Vol
 ONE HIT and only one man to. reacs first base for the first six innings was the record of young Earl Whitehil yesterday. Earl wobbled a bfts in the seventh and eleventh when the Vols scored their runs, but aside from these frames Whitey pitched superb ball. BILL STATTIAM appeared to grow stronger as the game progressed and had Pug Allen not bounced that dou- ble off Frierson's shins in the four teenth inning Bill might still be serv- ing slants to Baronial batters.
 IF BIRMINGHAM didn't win that attendance trophy, it is because they didn't count the cops present at yes terday's game, one Baron fan has told us l.
