Der of the Memphis wrecking crew, and what Rhino did to that ball was a plenty. He slammed it to the far reaches of left-center for a circuit clout, scoring three men ahead of him, and that awful smash made the count 5-4. Red Bates was warming up. So was Moley. The Chubby chieftain was shedding precipitation like Coal-oil Johnny used to shed bank k-notes. Huhn hit to Stuffy and the Baron Captains peg was bad, Huhn going safe. Neihoff cracked a single to left and Philip heard a still, small voice becoming him dugout- ward. He trod the pathway towards the falling showers. and the cerise- domed Bates, of angular architecture took his place on the hill.
 Bates HaIts Rally
 With a man on second and first, Red was as cool as a Frostbite. He picked the man off second with a sharp throw to start things, and then forced Mullen and Pope to lift flies to third and center for the end of the inning.
 That's all Mobile made, but the Barons tailed thrice after that run ming the total up to eight. In their half of the sixth Neun led off with sizzling three bagger to right. Burkett was deshinned by a pitched ball and trotted to first. Robertson cracked a double to the sunny side of the street and Neun came home in a walk. Bates flied out to left and Stuffy smacked one to Niehoff, who threw to the plate and got BurlSett, Stuffy going safe on fielder's choice. Stuffy made dash for sec- ond and Schulte threw wild, Stew art continuing over to third. and Robertson coming home with the second Baron tally of the inning. Sil- va was out to left for the end of the inning.
 MoIeys Score Again
 The Moleys scored another in the eighth on single by Neun, his forth hit of the day, sacrifice by Burkett a wild pitch by Pope and a single through the pitchers box by the flame-topped Bates. Then the Barons went into the ninth. Everybody was expecting anything. Williams and Mulvey were easy outs and the fans heaved sighs of relief. fRhino Will Hams singled, however, and Huhn doubled. It looked like the fireworks had started. But Red bore down and pitched to Niehoff, with the result that the stocky Bear manager hit to Taylor. who whipped it to first for the end of the game.
 In the second affair of the series Whitehill is booked to oppose Fuhr this afternoon.

LEFTY MEEKER IS SOLD OUTRIGHT TO
 RICHMOND OUTFIT


 Roy Lefty) Meeker, little south paw twirler who has had two trials with the Barons, is no longer the property of the Birmingham baseball club, as his outright sale to the Richmond club of the Virginia league was announced yesterday. Meeker leaves at once to join the Richmond club.
 Meeker had first trial with the Barons in 1921, being farmed out a portion of the season. He finished the season with the club.
 Lefty was given another chance this spring, but his lacx of weight was against him, and Mole sworth has sold him outright.
 Meeker goes to the league he starred in last season. during the time he was on farm duty for the Barons. Meeker pitched for the Norfolk club awhile, making good in splendid fashion. He should prove a winning twirler for the Virginia leaguers this year.
 BaroninI Roster
 MoleyS force IS now doWn 10 reg ulation size. Here's how the roster lines up:
 Five pitchers: Eberhard, Statham, Bates, Morrison and Whitehill.
 Two catchers: Robinson and Bran don.
 Six infielders: Neun, Stewart. Kreh- myer Kane. Burkett and Taylor.
 Three outfielders Clarke, Silva and Harper.
 It is probable that one of the in- fielders will go later on--the local club has no need of two utility in fielders.
 Railbird hopes for additional help from Pittsburg in the shape of another good pitcher have not com pletely died down either. and it is thought that a couple more changes in the Barones' 1922 roster may be made by the first week of next month.

o KEEPING FAITH.

Like most Republican newspapers the Lander Jour.
ma Is Of the opinion that a state administration should
Ieceem prediction promises. Touching this subject
the journal calls public attention to the fact that Wvo-
ming highway bonds are being marketed in the east
ana are not being absorbed by the school fund, as was
promised last May during the campaign. The Jour
nal could with propriety also inquired as to another
very widely heralded promise, that the automobile tax
would take care of the interest and create a sinking
fund for the final redemption" which the public has
already discovered is not the case. The governor. the
secretary of state and others who in their enthusiasm
put forth such statements and then fail to carry them
into effect are simply destroying the faith Of the
people. ~
The Journal says: "In connection with the recent
newspaper stories to the effect that State Treasurer
Hoskins is about to make a trip to New York to per-
sonaily deliver to an eastern bond house 81, 90 600
wyoming state highway bonds purchased Nv them. 4.
MIGHT be well to inquire about the repeated assertion,
made when the bonds were voted, that the bonds were
to be taken up by the Wyoming state school funds 40
that none Of the money would 60 out Of the state to
repay either principal or interest. If our school fund
can handle these bonds, 1t ought to do SO, and If IL
cannot, we should not have been led to believe that
such was the case. This is not offered in a spirit of
captious criticism, but simply in the interest of keen
ing the record straight. Prediction promises ought
to be redeemed or else they ought never to be made"
