2 Railbird hopes went aglimmering g last night, when 1t became known that the deal whereby Infielder Joe Sargent of the Portland club and formerly of the Detroit Tigers has Nivyered, and that the Barons wont get Sargent at all. The following telegram from Manager Molesworth received last night explains the mat ter in full:
 sargent positively refuses to
 report to Birmingham and play
 ball In the south. Deal for him
 has been called off.
 CHARLTON MOLESWO ORTH." The Pacific Coast leaguer has been turned back to Portland. and Bir- mingham is now out of 1t, mi1us the services of corking good infielder, of course.
 The addition of Sargent would have strengthened the Baronial line i, up considerably of course, but now that hopes of getting him are gone, it is probable that Birmingham base ball officials will SCOUT the field for another likely looking prospect
 Taylor Is Back
 The return of Tommy Taylor to the lineup has strengthened the team quite a bit, of course, as the improved brand of ball the Barons have been playing in New Orleans testifies. Taylor Is reliable infield- CT, and does much to keep the morale of the team up.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-07-02
Sargent Refuses to Report Here

It may be that, with Taylor back at third Neun at first and stewart at second, the Baronlal infield will settle down and play the ball of which it is capable, Kane played short yesterday and this youngster ought to be able to come through with some good baseball during the next few weeks of campaigning.
 With Kane and Burkett alternat- ing at short, the Barons might come through with some good infieid work now. Of course both are young sters, but all either needs to become a first-class infielder is a bit more balance and experience.
 Barons Seem to Improve
 The Barons are not playing their best ball, it must be admitted, but it looks like the team must get along somehow until it just naturally emerges. from it's slump by the law of averages, or goes e!sew here than the Pacific coast to seek new talent
 The Barons played poor ball in At lanta, better in Mobile and thus far have made a great showing against the Felicans. losing both games by hard luck and close margins.
 In the meantime numors have had it that Birmingham will get every one from Buck Herzog, veteran Giant infielder, to Chief Yellowhorse. Pirates Indian hurler. Of course. these are only rumors. and none of them probably have any foundation at all.

WARY PROMOTER CAUGHT CONNOLLY
 TRYING TO CRASH
"One- Eye" Connolly Says Only Once Did He Fail to
 See Fight Free
nY LAMEs J. CoRBET.r.

"one Eye" Connolly ought to be disconsolate-but writes that I'm far from that"
 The picturesque character of pugi- lism, who has boasted for 20 years that there isn't a sportive gate that he couldn't crash" failed out in Ver- non, Cal, not so long ago.
 Connolly, once a fighter, lost an eye in ring warfare. When he quit the ring he was broke. But he wasn't daunted. The old love of the game still surged within him. So, some wetks afterward, when he heard there was an important fistic bat tie. carded 300 miles away. he hoped a freight, arrived at the battle ground, climbed the arena fence the night before. slept under stand and saw the fight free.
 That started It..
 He Saw 'Em All
 For a score of years since that time no great fight eser was staged officially without the presence or Connolly, He's seen 'em all--in Aus tralia, Havana, Reno. Toledo, Jersey
 
 Sometimes he has secured tickets from friendly sport writers who hal extra ones. Upon other occasions he secured a job as usher or program seller-and quit his ushering or sell ing job the moment the fight began. But in most instances he has been a rlngside witness through exhibi- tions of nerve and displays of re- sourcefulness, siding in past gate alongside a bulky patron; climbing fences the day or night before.
 But in Vernon something else hap pened.
 Only Time He FaNed
 Connolly heard that some stellar Doyle's arena. So he hopped a freight out of Frisco and landed in Los Angeles a day or so later. He set out for Vernon. When he ar rived there he started to streak II for the arena. But a bevy of cops. tipped to be on the lookout for him spotted him and one of them hauled him off to jail. And the fight was put on while Connolly peered unhap- oily through the bars.
 And so was "One Eye" Connolly foiled-for the only time in his ca reer.
 Ever since. writes Connolly, Doyle has been boasting that he took away my championship. But tha- bird didn't use fair tactics. He didn't have me pinched while in the act of trying to crash his gate H. had me nabbed the minute got of the street car-and that isn't fair. H, fouled me-"

 Give Tm All Passage
 'If this Is the true reason" writes, Trevor Wugnall in the Mail, and it seems a feasible idea. then passage should be booked at once for some of our .heavyweights."
 This Is some thought. Only in booking passagegto this country care should be taken to engage a hospital ship for the return trip, For you know there is just a chance that the hope might be wrong.
 In the meantime. over in Paris. a crimp has been put in Carpenters plan to build up interest for Demp < sey by wading through the Euro pean heavies. because of the defeat of Marcel Miles by Battling Siki; the negro. Miles was one of the reasons given by Carp for his inability to face Greb this year.
