TOM ROGERS ALLOWS BUT SIX HITS TO BARONS AND CHICKS
 WIN FINAL GAME, SCORE 60
Roy Moore Hit Hard By The Memphis SIuggers--Camp And Lapan Get Three Safe ties Each

The Barons closed ott their sea son at Rickwood park Saturday aft ernoon by losing to the Memphis Chicks by a score of to 0. Tom Rogers, Chick hurler, was too good for the locals and turned them back with six hits and @ scoreless total.
 Roy Moore, who one time led the Southern league hurlers and was only recently displaced. allowed IA safties.
 The game was close until the sixth, then the Memphis crew start ed on a batting spree and ran in five runs during the last three innings. Howard Camp and Pete Lapan were counted in on the scoring total when they collected three safeties each during the game.
 The Chicks first score came in the third when D. Miller was safe. stole second and scored on Camps s single to right.
 Three were collected in the sew enth. Wick singled, was sacrificed to second by D. Miller, went to third on a wild pitch and scored on Pad gett's single to left.

RUBE FOSTER TO OPEN SERIES HERE
 MONDAY AT 4 P. M.
Rush Buys A Bunch Of New Stars For The Black
 BarOnS
Neero hasahall

Negro baseball in Birmingham, has grown from a fly -by-night, harum -scarum proposition to a CO., lossal attraction that requires bundles this fact brought home more emphat- ically than Saturday, when Manager Joe Rush dug down'in the old strong box, took 1000 perfectly good dol lars therefrom and purchased Juan Padron, the Cuban pitching star, who is rated as one of the ten best pitch CTS in baseball.
 Not only that, but Rush announced that the Cuban was on his way here and would reach Birmingham in time to pitch the Tuesday game against Rube Fosters American Giants. Padron is a left-hander and sup porters of the Black Barons are anxious to see him work. The series against Rube Fosters celebrated colored team will start off at Rick wood Monday afternoon. For foul days the fur will fly at the Wood" and one of the most hectic series of the entire season Is expected
 Rush, in commenting on the pur- chase of the Cuban star so late in the season, said: Tt is just another step in my ambition to make the Black Barons the greatest colored baseball team ever organized in our fight for the pennant next season. am building for the future and l am building at big expense. Some people may think l am foolish to spend money in the way l am doing, but look on 1t as an investment in one sense of the word and as sporting proposition in another. If I am able to give Birmingham a winner next year, Birmingham will in turn sup port this winner, and in that way my team becomes box office at traction and I will get back the money I have been putting out this fall It is broad cast upon the waters proposition.
 Birmingham has supported the Black Barons this year, and we really have had a good ball club, but noth- ing like l hope to give 'em for next year. I have taken the sum total of the profits and have builded for the future by buying the best colored stars money can buy. I may go broke in the attempt to land a winner here, but l don't think so. Birmingham is not in the habit of treating a man that way. They put out, according to the way the head of a ball club puts out"-and there you are.
 We have already spent much money in buying stars for next year We are to spend much more before we are through The stars we have purchased will have a chance to show their stuff the next four days"
 Thus it may be seen that while the White Barons have closed out their local season baseball is not dead by any means for the winter The Black Barons will be gambling on the greensward Monday. Tuesday

Alabama Varsity Score One Goal On Frosh ELeuen

UNIVERSITY, Ala, Sept. 22.-(Spe- cial. )-A SO yard run through an open field by Mack Brown, fresh man halfback of last year, was the sole score made in the Varsity Freshman football game played on Denny Field this afternoon. Brown grabbed punt on his own 40 yard line and sidestepped and stiff armed his way through the Rat" eleven, until he crossed the goal line.
 Browns spectacular run and an- other dash by McCartee were the only thrillers of the day. McCartee skirt ed left end and, after having ran about IS yards. came to sudden halt when hit by Dave Rosenfeld. Estes, "rat" fullback, played a whale of defensive game, while the punt ing of MacCartee and McClintock. some averaging 50 yards, were other features of the game.
 Slightly abbreviated. two games were played on Denny Field Satur- day. It was a first varsity eleven second tilt among the second | teams. By this, Coach Wade and Coach Vandegraf received a line on practically every man on the two l elevenS.
 Somehow the game failed to be as appetizing as students expected 1t would be. No longer passes were completed, no longer end runs were made. nothing came except Browns run and Rosenfeld's tackle that brought the students off their seats, The two teams carried the ball up and down the field, often resorting to bunting when they could not gain | through the line.
 The Varsity started as follows: Ends, Clemens and Hudson; tackles, Buckler and Compton; guards, Pag- ct and Langhorne: center, Propst; l backs, MacCartee, Oliver, Brown and Hubert.
 The Rats started as follows: ends, Lipscomb and Hardagee; tackles, | Gonzales and Geiger; guards, Pick hart and Dismukes; center, Norman; backs. Rosenfeld. Collier, Lillian and | Estes.

He fought d base line battle in +he first set, held the advantage from the very first game, and won in series of thrilling ral- lies. Williams carried the attack against the wcsterners in the dou- nles. but the speed and trickiness of the pair from the coast held sway, Washburn seemed invincible on over head play, but was weak on half yolleys
 The eastern pair worked admirably in the secon5 set and went well in the third until Joknsou began smash ing

CAPT. BOB ROPER TO FIGHT LOHWAN HERE OCTOBER 8
Promises To Be One Of Best Bouts Held By B. A. c.
 This Season

Capt. Bob Roper, the biggest drawing card ever to appear in a Birmingham ring, is coming back. That is, if Cap'n Bob will lower his sights just wee bit on the hefty guarantee he is demanding for com- ing here. Cap'n Bob raised his aim beyond the reach of the local club when he learned they wanted to match him with Joe Lohman. Cap n Bob doesn't like Joe. And thereby hangs a tail
 A month ago Bob Roper and Joe Lohman met in an Atlanta ring. For ten rounds they fought as fiercely and as gamely as two fighters ever fought, according to descriptions of the battle in Atlanta papers. At the expiration of the bout each man was on his feet and the buyers of tickets were in a quandary as to which man had won. So were the newspapers. Some voted for Lohman and some for Roper, and there you are.
 Now, on October s, Birmingham Is to get the chance of seeing these two men fight off their tie, that Is if Roper lowers his guarantee a bit. Roper here before there was only one guarantee to be made-to Roper. But Lohman has achieved such fams as a tighter that he too is demand irg a guarantee and in order to get the scrap the Athletic club must put up two guarantees.
 Club officials do not hope to make any money out of the scrap. They will be satisfied if they can stage the show, come out even on it and give the local fans a treat. When Roper met Berry here he encountered what developed to be a set-up for him. Local railbirds want to see eAt, if ffaR, Lohman can give it. As a matter of fact some who will win if Joe Loh- ma is in as good shape he was upon their initial encounter.
 From present indications the club will be able to whittle down the guarantee a bit. and the night of October 8 Birmingham will get all agog over what promises to be the greatest ring battle in the history of local boxing.
