 Memphis, August 31.-(Special.) The Barons overcame three-run first inning lead by the Chicks by scoring four runs in the third in- ming, and before the Chicks had another opportunity to overcome the Barons, rain overcame both of them. Whereupon, the pennant prospect ing Tribesmen went their third straight day without stalking any new pennant claims.
 Of the four game series the Chicks got one, and that one a gift handed to them in the twelfth inning Sunday on wild throw from right field ly 1 Silva.
 Barons Did Job Well | The Barons made three more scores | in the sixth inning. and had run ner on second, with one out, but It didn't mean anything, for the game reverted to the fifth inning. Five minutes after the game was called at 5:10, Red Elm bottoms became yer itable lake, and there was no possi- ble chance of renewing the game, although Umpire Erwin waited the customary 30 minutes and called it a ! day. The Chicks. who had not made score in two days, looked like they had come into their own in the first 1 inning, when, with two outs, they | jumped upon Earl Whitehill, the Baron left-sider. and turned three scores on four straight hits. l Williams singled and took second when McLarry followed. Brown sent one past short, scoring Williams and 1 putting McLarry on third. Camp landed to right scoring McLarry and Brown, but that was the last hit the l Chicks made off the left sided Baron.
 How It Was Done l The Barons started hitting Fred Marks in the first inning, but Marks might have gotten by with a victory had it not been for a costly error hy Rhino Williams, left fielder. in the | tnlTu lHu+H~ W iti ont ONN' ''i' -N 1 turned a short fly to right into q l double. stewart beat out hit 10 High. and silva went to third. Emery | singled through the box. scoring Sil- va and putting stewart on second. Taylor grounded between short and third, and Williams let the ball roll 1 through his hands and legs. Stewart scored on the hit but Emery followed home on the error, while Taylor went in third, from where he scored on sacrifice fly.
 ! Marks pitched good bali in the fourth and fifth, but the Barons took after him again in the sixth. but as before said, it didn't mean anything.
 Erwin Krehmeyer, the new Baron shortstop, playing his second game, continued to behave very much at home at the position and secured a ] clean hit, a line drive to right in the second inning.
 ! The Chicks had golden opportlni- ! ty to tie it in the fifth. although they didn't make a hit. High, first lup. walked. McMillan attempting to sacrifice, lifted a short fly in front of the plate. Whitehill came near getting it, but missed. However, High had waited on first to see what was going to happen, and Whitehill threw out McMillan. and then High { was caught in a chase.
