Three victories and 10 defeats was the tragic record for the road trip of three series. brought to climax by yesterdays double defeat at New Orleans
 Manager Molesworth's men open a Sour game series at Redwood park this afternoon. meeting the Mobile Bears. After the four games--to be played in three days--the Barons meet the Lookouts in three game series. then hit the road for another trip.
 The feature of this week at Rick wood park will be the holiday double header with the Bruins to- morrow. featuring the Fourth of July. The doubie-header will be broken up into morning and after noon games.
 The morning game tomorrow be- gins at l0:30 o'clock. with the after noon fracas beginning at 3:30. This afternoons game. a single contest, will begin at regular time. $50 o'clock.
 
 Birmingham always turns out in large numbers to the annual Fourth of July baseball program at Rick wood and Birmingham baseball of ficials are making preparations to take care of a capacity crowd tomor- row. In order to avoid congestion at the park before game time. arrange ments have been made to place tickets for the July affair on sale downtown this morning.
 At Hagan-DunIap's, tickets for
 tomorrow afternoon's game at
 Riekwood will go on sale this
 morning at 8s80 o'clock. Box
 seat, Ernndstnnd and blcacher
 tickets can he bought at HaEan-
 Duniap's up until 5ssO o'clock
 this afternoon, while ticket sale
 will he resumed at 9,3o Tuesday
 morning, continuing until about
 two hours before time for the
 afternoon game to he called.
 There will be no advance ticket sale for the morning game tornor- row. but the park will open at e:s0 o'clock Tuesday. an hour before game time, and tickets can be bought then.
 Back to the opener for this aft ernoon, Mike ,Eberhard will probably draw the pitching assignment at Rickwoo today If Mike isn't used, Bill Statham will probably be sent to the mound.
 Kane Coming Through
 The Barons have had one source of relief knocked into the 1t might have been," by the announcement that Joe Sargent, Pacific Coast league infielder. won't report here. and there will probably be no change In the Barons' lineup this afternoon. Johnny (Sugar) Kane has been playing great bali at shortstop since Tommy Taylor's return to third base. and he will probably be kept there during the Bruin series. He is not only fielding in creditable fashion. but is also hitting the ball oppor- tunely.
 The Barons seem in the down and out class now, but the local machine certainty ought to settle down very shertiy now, and play wining ball. Moiesworth has much better out fit than the recent showing of the Barons would indicate. and 1t is about time for the fellows to star t playing the ball that last month ca-- ried them from sixth to second place.

 New Orleans. July 2.--showing a very wicked assortment of base hits in their double attack on the Barons here this afternoon, the Pelicans captured both ends of a double header and incidentally made 1t four straight victories over the totterins gentlemen > from Alabama. In tns first contest the Dobbers fatteneo their batting averages at the sx- pense of Earl whitehill and Bill Statham and won the fray by ands to score. The second smbrogiio found Phil Morrison less generous than ms teammates. and tho Pelicans made the best of their hits and won by A to count.
 Rainfall right up to time of the game resulted in heavy field and the fieiders on either side could not untrack themselves. The Barons found base hits going just out of their roach, and before the game had got under any headway at all, the Pei- jeans were leading by to l score. Neun opened the hostilities for the Barons in the first game with q double and scored on C1ark's single. Five hits accounted for three runs in the Pelicans half. and in the second frame the Barons added ar- other, Robertson walking and SCOT ing on whitehilPs double.
 WhitehiH Yanked
 Manager Molesworth yanked White hill in the second inning after hav- ing doubled, and Bill Statham held the Peiicans until the fourth. when they added another as result of BoEart's single and Gilbert's triple.
 A single, double and home run in the fourth netted the Pelicans three more tallies and 1t looked like the contest was on fee until the final inning when the Barons rallied. With two men down Kane and Robertson went out in order, and then Burkett. pinch hitting for Statham, singled. Stewart was safe on Martina's error, Burkett scoring, while Stewart went to second. Neun singled and Stew art counted Clark singled, and then Taylor ended the rally by hitting 10 Smith, forcing Clark at second.
 Pitchers Duel
 The second fray found Morrison and Abe Bailey hooked up in a pitchers duel, Bailey not allowing a hit until the fifth inning, when the Barons bounced on him for four bingies and two runs. This tied the score, as the Pelicans had counted in the second and fourth innings, re- spectively. Tucker walked in ths Peis' second advanced on sacrifice and scored on Smiths single. In the fourth, Henry walked, stole second and scored on Fuckers double.
 In the Barons' fourth. Taylor flied out. Harper singled, Silva tripled, scoring Harper. Kane singled and Silva scored. tying the count. Bran don singled and Kane went to third. Morrison popped to Smith and Kane was doubled off third, ending the rally.
 Cotton Knaupp then put the contest in the refrigerator in the fifth in- ming when he plastered one over the left field wall for home run. which proved the winning tally of the game.

VANS REQUEST DECLINED.
Morristown, N. J., Unwilling to Raise
s25o.ooo Required to Meet Terms.

New York. April 20.--The refusal Of
the people of Morristown, N. j.. to ac-
cept the terms of bequest Of the late
Thec.2sre n. Vail, president of the
American Bell Telephone company, is
revealed in an announcement OF the
forthcoming auction sale of Mr. Wallis
library and art collection, which had
been bequeathed eonditionally to Nor
ristown.
Mr.. Vail left most of his art col
lection. part Of his library, his white
marble home at Morristown and $3.50
600 to the municipality, on the condi-
ton that its citizens raise a similar
sum to add to the endowment Of the
proposed museum. He stipulated that
the museum should be controlled by
an organization TO be formed for that
purpose. Apparently this provision
acted as bar to the acceptance OF the
bequest, the public authorities taking
the view that public money should not
be appropriated for an institution that
would not be controlled by public Off
Gals.
