 DEFEATS VOLS Fans Mackey With Tieing Runs On The
 Cushions

VeraciOus gentlemen in all walks of life were being called liars this morn- ing and fish tales were not the only ones laughed at as obviously untrue. For those enduring fans who have watched the Barohs write their 1924 jeremiad, and who went to the ancient orchard yesterday were able to describe how the locals won their second conse- cutive game. They emphatically rub bed the Vols noses in the dirt for z to triumph.
 The visitors started we'll, with Har- ry Weaver floating up h hOwdy do curve with a sickly smile and the in- scription Please don't hurt me, I'm harmless" He struck out four men in the first three innings and not a Baron had reached second when the fifth came up. In the meantime, the Volunteers had been successful to the extent of pair of tallies. The first came in the third inning when Weaver himself tripled and Murray scored him with a single. The second marker, in the next frame, was largely in the na- ture of a gift. With two gone, Graf singled and took second on a passed ball. Alten scored him with a scorcher to right. at
 But the Barons right here rubbed their tattered blinkers, hitched up tat tered trousers and. spat on their abused hands. Then they went to it in the fifth.
 Fred Graf started them on their fight from the tenement district of baseball society. He begged low on Spencer's grounder. Rufe Clarke mussed up a bunt and followed this by crossing the Nashville infield with line single to left. Brausen beat out a perfect bunt to Weaver to fill the sacks. Howard Camp. came through again when he singled to right to score the Baronial battery. The others moved up to second and third. Bonny Stewart, making his first appearance at the bat, grounded out with no ad- vance. Bobby Rhode lofted to Lebo in short center and Brausen scored by an eyelash.
 That was all for that frame; but in the sixth they continued to gore the HamiltOns' wounded side. Having the taste of blood, they found it we'll worth further trial. Bruce Hartford this time injected the first of the jabs when he crushed a homer to left. It should have been but triple but Mur- ray mussed up the relay. The bases
 
 and Clarke's bunt. Brausen was hit by a pitched ball to force home a tall ly. Then Camp lined to Fisher, who doubled Brausen at first, and Graf tossed out BOnny Stewart.
 The local hirelings swatted two more in during. the course of fne strug- gle, but, as it proved, they weren't needed. The big thrill came in the eighth. Rufe Clarke had been pulled from a big hole in the sixth when he passed the first two men and Hart ford removed the danger by starting a fast double play.
 But in the eighth he completely lost his firing adjustment. He walked Murray and Lebo doubled to score Bob by. Then Fisher strolled.> Graft forced Fisher at second, but BrenneI threw wild to first in trying for a double, LebO counting. Clarke showed his appreciation by passing Alten and Paskert to load the cushions. Delmar Lundgren strode manfully in from right field, where he had been warming up. He had done a good job of it, for he went back three times, picked up a razor edge for his fast one and threw it past Maekey to strike him out.
 Bonny Stewart, the Lakeland out fielder, who has been working out with the locals, has been signed in place of Tex Jeanes, who is out, very likely for the rest of the summer, with bum tOnsils. They. will be removed this week. Stewart didn't look the size of a big hitter, but he pulled down a ter rife liner in the fifth from Chiskef
