H. C. Feagle, Souther's latest addition to the pitching staff, groke into the limelight but it proved to be a bad break. He eased along fairly well for five in nings and then the fireworks start ed. McMillan, captain of the South er squail, refused to jerk him and Dawson collected eleven bingles for their five runs. Souther was able to collect only four safeties off Jenkins’ delivery and Bill Parsons got three of them. Parsons also pitched the last two innings. In addition to this he proved his versatility by covering third base like Heinie Zimmerman at his best. Souther has a treasure in “Big Bill” and it is time some one was looking him over as a prospect for fast com pany. The game yesterday gives each club two victories and the deciding game will be played at Souther soon. Soother plays Cordele at Cord die today and probably Hawkinsville at Souther tomorrow.
