Today is an off day in the Baron ial camp. Joe Dunn and his charges need that off day. and they deserve it. A week of battling, with unusual fruits of their labors to show for It, give them every right in the world to have an off day today.
 Yesterday the Barons did enough ball playing for two days, Tn order that they might enjoy their off day with a clear conscience. NashVliie was slaughtered, and the series was copped. two games to one.
 By winning the Vol series. the Dunnits made 1t three consecutive series, or eight victories out of their last Il games, more than spiendia record for the Barons.
 Tomorrow the Barons enter a cer- tain period of clover, if past perfor- mances can be relied upon. A three game series will be opend at Chat tanooga Monday, and. down and out as the Barons have been, it Is doubt- ful if the Noogans can cop all three games. The Lookouts have been play ing good ball, however, and must be watched.
 After the three games In Chat tanooga, the Barons come back home to finish out the week with a trio of games with the Travellers. and the going is sure to be swift
 Joe Dunn has inspired the Bar onial pastimers with pep and will ingness, at least, and seems 10 pc getting the results, all right.
 SLIP stoner Reports
 sIil" Stoner, hurler secured from the Detroit Americans by the Barons. reported to his new boss, Joe Dunn yesterday, and Is now ready for action. Stoner is capable of twirling good ball, ny Cobb said when se1ding the youngster here. ana "Iil" fellow should make good with the Barons.
 stoner may work in one of the Chattanooga games, but 1t Is prooa- ble that he will be held over to open against the Travellers Thursday.
 Phil Morrison will probably open at Chattanooga today.
 Hunter Sent Back to Nets. Dee Hunter, right-handed twirler of the chunky frame, who was se- cured from the Meridian club of the Cotton States league by the Barons, was returned to the Nets yesterday. and Immediately left to re5oin his old team. mates.
 unable to show much more than gameness and ability to make the opposition howl for permission to examine the ball, then clout 1t out of sight. In his second start, Hunter was knocked to the tall timber in !, something less than no thirds of an inning, and his journey did not end with the showers.
 Achfnger Starts Well. Shorustop Achinger played his first game with the Barons esterday. clouting out two hits and fielding l fauitlessly. The former Sally 1 leaguer is expected to play good ball l for the Barons, as his record with l Spartanburg was good. and his start yesterday made a good impression with the raiIpirds. s Joe Freeman, tall right-hander whom Joe Dunn looked over several | days, was ordered to return to Talia- adega, where he has been playing semi pro ball, but he left with strings 1 attached. Freeman will return for a try-out with the Barons next l spring. The trip up this time was little more than a looking over pro- l cess.
 Joe Dunn promised the fans ac- 1 ton. and he's giving It to 'em ail- right. Two new pitchers within a week, one new infielder, and new prospects for 1923 are some of the | developments announced By Dunn. If many more new faces sho wup railbirds will hardly know their own team from the pill swatting outfit of Nome. Alaska.
