Local Redbifd Fiye Wins 43-3O Victory
 In Godsden Battle


 Gadsden. March Special. .)-The fast Birmingham "Y' basketball team mopped up with the, Gadsden lnue- pendents at ,he Steel Plant 'Y'' last night to the tune of ls to 50, in the presence of the largest crowd thai has ever witnessed game here.
 In the first half Che Birmingham boys oulplayed The IRaependents at every ansie and the half ended with the score of 2 to 9. In the second half the Independents came back strong and outplayed the visitors. T to Is, but the lead piled up by the visitors in the Arst half was too great for the home boys to overcome Sta}linss was the star of the lnde- pendents, making Is of the 90 points made by his team.

pros counted twice in the fifth. Neun walked and Clark smashed one to center. The ball took a bad hop through the fielder's legs and the speedy Clark romped around the sacks in lightning fashion for home run.
 In the sixth Kane hit to the pitcher and that worthy threw the ball away Kane going all the way to second. Kane advanced to third on Brandon s infield out, and scored on Meeker's hit.
 In the seventh Taylor was safe on an error at first and Tommy stole second. He moved over to third on Tices infield out and se6eed on Krehmyer's infield hit, That ended the scoring for the Barons.
 The Bulldogs. however. landed two more tallies on Mike Eberhard's de- livery in the eighth. Mike was wild. He pinked Shores, the first man up, in the ribs and Crews flied out. Wal ker singled between third and short and Ebbie also pinked Runyan. With three men on, Brandon tried to pick "a man off first and threw wild, Shores scoring. Gaylord hit to left center and scored Walker.
 It was an ideal day for baseball and the pitchers got in some of the best work they have yet exhibited. With Meeker apparently ready to go the route and Statham's arm feeling fine. things are looking up in pitching way.

against the formidable Benny. He has been after the champion some time now, and when his ef- forts to get a battle with him were frustrated repeatedly, he decided on another move. He stated he would thin out all con tenders and then Benny would be forced to meet him. His first match was with Johnny Dundee and the Scotch Wop won the de- cision Friday night. All of which Will hampersWhite in getting the longed for bout with the wearer of the lightweight crown.
 White is I.eonard's nemesis, yet against weaker opposition he plays into the hands of . the enemy. This runs to type in the prize ring. There was Willie Meehan, the Pacific coast butcher, for instance- Willie was built like any fighter should nos be built and was grotesque in ap- pearance. Yet Meehan is the only man who could ever give champion Jack Dempsey any trouble. Meehan was always pie for the near-greats. but in the ring with champion Jack he had a style of attack and defense that puzzled the heavyweight king.

 The game. which the Barons grabbed off by 9-S score, was fea- tured by Stump Clarkes freak homer, which deturfed part of the outfield' and a fast double play, shelton to Lackey to Shores
 Stathnm Comes Through
 The main idea of the battle, how ever, was the fact that Bill Statham, who came to Birmingham from Nash vile in the trade for Tommy Gala gher, demonstrated that his hurling wing, which was injured greater part of last season, had come back into form. While Bill was putting little on the ball, he was cutting loose some steamy offerings that served as proof that nothing is the matter with his arm. Lefty Roy Meeker also looked good and ther were many of the fans who were pulling for the little southpaw. He spent one full season here, was farmed to Norfolk last year, and had great season. He is in the best shape of any pitcher who worked Saturday, and looked like he is ready to go the full nine-innins route right now.
 A goodly sprinkling of fans settled themselves in the stands and enjoyed khe matinee. at the bargain rate of lorty cents per throw.
 Barons Score in First
 Motey's men started scoring early. En the first inning Burkett led off with a single, and Neun went safe on ! fdctder's choice. In the throw to Beeond to get Drrk the first-sack- pr ehunked the ball to left field and Earkett continued to third. He kept on for home when the left-fielder ehrezW the ball away, and Neun gtrtped on third. Clarke was hit by pitched ball and Tommy Taylor whacs<ed out a double to right, SCOT ing Clarke and Neun. Taylor went cut trying to stretch his two-ply Waihep into a triple.
 The Barons failed to put one over ln the second, but Statham sent one almost to the fence in left. He was out at third. having run too much in the same place to anchor safely at fhe torrid corner. It was by far the longest drive of the game.
 BuIidoxs Score
 The collegians got their first score Tn the third frame. With two down Crews went safe on Burketts error. Walker followed with a terrible wal lop to left and Crews tailed. Walker. however. cut second in his eagerness to go to third, and the ball was relayed back to second for a putout. The Moleys came right back in the third and added another. Neun shot ripping single by first and Clarkie forced him to second. Clarke went to second when the second -sacker tried for a double play on Neun's re tirement. Taylor slammed a single through short. scoring Clarke. Tice hit to left for what looked like a sure hit. but shelton made wonderful running catch of the ball and Tommy Taylor. who had figured the drive good for a safety, was doubled off first
 Again in the fourth the Barons scored. Krehmyer doubled to center to start things and went to third when Kane laid down a nice sacrifice. He scored when Tooter Brandon cracked out clean single to left.
 Two More in Fifth
 Following out their policy of SCOT ing run every inning, almost, the

Whites Peculiar status
 Charlie White, the Chicago lightweight, seems to be the only man in the small-weight division who can give Benny Leonard any trouble. Every time White meets Benny he comes within an ace of Knocking him out, and he proves so troublesome that it's diff cult for him to get match with champion Benny.
 Yet, when the Chicago mauler goes against some of the lesser lights he does not put up as good a battle against them as he does
