 first chance to look over the Barors' new first baseman, Rhode, whom they obtained from Cleveland. This Rhode Is said to be a fielder who will make the Barons forget Neun. He is left handler and highly touted by Clevela1d officials. He played in 22 games with the Indians last year. In this respect President W. D. Smith announced Tues day night that Harvey Mcdonald, first basemen obtained from Dover of the Eastern Shore league, had been released to Spartanburg, S. C., of the South At lant!c league.
 Get Crack TwirIer
 President Smith also announced the acquisition of a new left-hand pitcher from Detroit. The twirler was chris tened c. Scraphin Good. Fans call him Sep" Good played with Bay City In the Michigan Ontario league last year and led the league with a percentage of 800. He worked in 84 games, won 20 and lost five. He struck out 16s bat t6TS anu Hldu0 Ouly IlNO WAQ QltClC1 and hit ten batters. He batted .26S. He is considered as an important acQuisi- ton and will soon be in shape to take his turn, as he has been working with the Tigers all spring.
 Red Bates or Paul Bennett will prob ably be the choice of Stewart Wednes- day to work the mound. Either of these two twirlers can be depended upon to give good account of themselves.
 Expect Big Crowd
 The crowds that swarmed to the park Tuesday for the Reds-Tigers game was an indication of great year for base ball in Birmingham. Secretary Billy West announced that the ladies' pass books have had a greater sale during the two days than they have ever be- fore in history. With first base now strongly fortified and the outfield. catching and pitching staffs strong and second and third well taken care of, there is much indication that the Barons will not disappoint the fans this season.

 Well, from my experience I have mo- tfced that if one sees a golfer who is careless in dress he Is in most cases care less in his way of playing golf. By that I mean one can nearly always tell good average player by his dress and walk on the golf course. Whether this actually has anything to do with his play, l don't know. Of course. trimness in appearanie will give & man little more confidence and pride in himself. and 1t may help the game he plays from this standpoint.
