Anderson and Hunter
 Are Tennis Finalists


 New York, March 31.-Frank T. Anderson and Francis T. Hunter, both of this city, will meet tomor- row for the mems national indoor tennis championship, each having won his way to the final round of the 1922 titular tournament this aft ernoon. Anderson defeated S. Hoard voshell 9-11, 6-3, 7-5. Hunter won from George C. Shafer, 6-1. s-3.
 Hunters victory was easily gained, but the battle between An derson and Voshell was one of the closest aud most thrilling ever wit messed at an indoor championship. Games went with service in the op- ening set until nine-all. when Vo- shell broke through with the aid of several spectacular short court re- turns and then won the set on his own service.
 The semi-hnal round matches of the doubles produced two spirited contests. George c. Shafer and Dr. George King, the veteran collesians. easily outdrove and outvolleyed c. E. Unterberg and Paul s. McHugh. the young Fordham pair. 6-1, 6-2.
 Anderson and voshell were right on their toes in the other match. By spirited rallies, in which volleying predominated, they defeated Herbert L. Bowman and J. Harry Stein- kampf, 6-2. s-4.

SPOKE EMERY IS SOLD TO VOLS BY
 BARONIAL OUTFIT
Baron Holdout Reports, But His Sale Is Announced
 First Day
Br MAnvIN McARTHY

Spoke Emery, regular centerfielder on last years Baronial aggregation, but who has been listed as 6 hold out this year. made the concession of dropping into town yesterday. Spoke arrived just in time 10 renew old ac- quaintsnces and learn of deal whereby he goes to the Nashville Vols this season.
 The deal was completed yesterday afternoon, and announced last night by Baron officials. It was stated that Emery was sold to the Vols in an outright purchase, but the amount of the price secured for the speedy young outfielder was not made public.
 Emerys persistent absence from the Baronial squad this season has caus- ed considerable comment among local fans. IL was known fact that Spoke was holding out on his contract. but railbirds consider March 15 or 20 the very latest dates of the annual hold out season. Whenever Prexy Smith, president of the Birmingham club. was questioned about the atfalr, he would merely smile and say;
 Sure, there's something to it. but it's not ready for publication yet. Emery hasn't signed his contract vet. but that's not all. When the story breaks, I'll give it to you" and the Baronial proxy has kept his promise.
 Emery. who hit over 300 with the Barons last season. will make the Vols a good man. He is an unusually speedy outfielder and has a knack of swiping bases that's hard to beat.
 Prexy Smith must have gotten a good price out of the Vols to turn Emery aloose, local fandom thinks. for Spoke would prove a valuable man to any team in the league.
 The Barons have an abundance of good outfield material, with Harper, Silva. Clarke. Tce, Kane and others fighting for berths.

Toronto Canadians left here last night in a bad mood, as a result of two postpohements of games with the Barons The White Sox are here to- day, and will be on hand to slip in a game if the weather guardians let up with the rain and release a bit of sunshine.
 White sox in Shape
 The White Sox come to Birming ham from Meridian. where they de- feated the Nets yesterday afternoon. They are in prime shape for battle. as Bill Gleason led his men through a strenuous training campaign. and should be able to play a fast game of baseball this afternoon.
 The Baron White Sox game today will begin at 2:45 o'clock. Clarence (Brick) owens will umpire the af- fair. Owens Is a regular American n league arbiter. and has been travel ing with the Chicago outfit since spring training began
 BnrOniaI Line-Up
 Manager Molesworth stated that the same lineup which has been held ready for Toronto the past two days will be used against the White Sox today. namely:
 silva. center field; Neun. first haSc; Clarke or Tice. left fieIdB
 Harper. right fieidt Taylor, third haSc: krehmyer.. second. base; Burkett, shortsfop, Robertson or
 Brandon. center field; Stathnm
 or Meeker, pitcher.
 Neither Statham nor Meeker have had any work this week, and will be used in this afternoons game. They were slated to do the twirling in the first Toronto game, but the weather man saw to it that there was no first game.
 The above lineup closely resem- bles the one that will be sent to the barrier when the season opens here

WEISMUELLER BREAKS
 WORLDS TANK RECORD


 New York. March 31.--John Weis- mueller of tic Illinois Athletic club Chicago, established new worlds record of 5S seconds flat for the 100-yard indoor swimming event to- day Weismueller's feat was accom- p,ished in the 75-foot pool of Co., lumbia university under special Ana teur Athletic union sanction and tim ing.
 The official time of 5s seconds flat was agreed upon after tho watches of the four timers to vary from 52st to 53 2-5 seconds The record will be certified to the amateur athletic union.
 Weissmuller's performance was considered all the more remarkable as the spectators knew that he was not in the best of shape, owing to the strenuous schedule the Illinois team has been following, and the fact that he complained few minutes before diving of not feeling as 'peppery' as usual.
 The swimmers feat in equaling the straight away dashes of the Hawaiian aauatio stars also was considered noteworthy. as he had to make three turns in the pool in covering the four laps.

Wind Blows Fence Down, While Rain Plays Havoc
 With Field
Rx HENRY VANCE

The weather man wasn't satisfied with rulning the ground for Fridays ball game, but he sent along stiff wind. which blew down a big portion of the outfield fence at Rlekwood. The fence len TOT parts unknown early Friday afternoon. when one of the intermittent showers happened along. accompanied by a heavy wind. This makes twice the fence has been floored by the wind. the same stunt happening in mid-season last year. This time, however. 1t will require only few hundred dollars to repair the damage.
 Moley was sitting in the dug-out cursing the rain-gods and looking towards centerfield when he saw the fence disappearing from view. It seemed to peel off and fall as row of dominoes. once you give 'em a shove. But for the fact that Moley is 8 teetotaler. he would of sworn he had 'em again. others who are not perfect strangers to the flowing bowl, really believed an attack Of D. T.'s was on.
 Game Raincd Out
 The second game With Toronto went the way of the first and was never played All Thursday night the precipitation continued to pre- cipitate, but the arrival of daylight brought a halt to the rain. Moley and his henchmen journeyed 10 Rick wood. tdied up the water-soaked soil and decided to try and play a game if possible, The Barons needed the work, and the Toronto players, stiff from enforced likeness, were anxious to get in a game, too.
 The word came into town from Redwood field that game would be played providing no more rain fell. Secretary Billy West told the fans as much, and as the morning wore on, the rain-elouds threatened and played hide and seek with patches of azure skies. Near the noon hour the sun was hitting on all six and it looked like ball game would be played Along a little after l o'clock, however. another consign- lnent of aqua pura came earthward, and it was all off.
 Doc Doesn't Mind Rain

Manager Eddie Onslow of the Toronto club, crated up his ball players and shipped 'em out of town Friday night, with out having played game. As these retired, however, the Chicago White Sox came in. and, barring the open ing of the flood gates again today battle between the big leaguers and Moleys will be staged at the park this afternoon.

PIRATES RETURN EARL WHITEHILL
 TO BARON s QU AD
BaroniaI Squad Is Now Com plete-ReIeaSes Expect
 ed Today
nx HENRY VANCE

All the Barons are at last in camp or accounted for. The roster was augmented yesterday morning by the arrival of Earl Whitehill, the grace ful little right handler of last years two, who has been at Hot Springs. trying out with the Pirates.
 Spoke Emery, the man who played centerfield for the Barons last year, blew into town, but late yesterday afternoon had not signed a Baron contract. Emery has been listed as a held-out, with Doc silva, another Baron outfielder. Both of these worthies have been wintering at New Orleans, but Silva hiked 1t back to the Magic City and signed his con- tract several days ahead of his old sidekick, Spoke Emery.
 Whitehill came down from the Hot Springs training camp of the Pirates and he brought his trunk along. All of which will be source of real joy to the local fans.
 This means that Whitey will get another year in minor league baseball. Even his most ardent supporters fig- ured that he would need at least an- other year of seasoning, but they were afraid he might be shipped to some double A league instead of the Southern. Whitehill was one of the best left-handers in the Martin loop last year and his coming greatly bolsters Moley's pitching prospects.
 Had No News.
 He had little to say in the way of news about Stuffy stewart, however whom he fans are also praying will return. Stuffy was carried north with the regular squad, and Whitey, even though he has been in the camp of the Pirates all spring, has no idea what Gibson intends doing with the gourmand this season.
 Pruning Is Next.
 With all hands accounted for now, Moley faces the real task of the year exercise with the pruning knife. Life vii be one little release after another from now until the opening of the season, April 12. Of course all the youngsters will not be cut loose at once. and some of the most promising will be kept until later and farmed out to some minor league club, but 1t has been hinted that to- day will find the axe busy again, and that at least eight rockies will be topped from the pay roll by night fall.
 In spite of the heavy rains of the past few days, Moley's flock of ath- letes seem to be in fine shape, and there are only two of the boys on the hospital list. These are Johnny Kane and Mike Eberhard. Mikes infected lunch-hoolS Is stil giving giv- ing him trouble, and Sugars" side has healed by no means yet.
