‘Flynn Nice Boy Johnson Clever
Fighter’-What Jeffries Says
By 11. M. Walker.
LOS ANGELES, May 31. Jim
J.ffi ir.«. with his usual frozen
front, refuses to he quoted in
connection with the Jack Johnson-
Jim Flynn fixity. I've trailed the
big fellow pretty closely of late,
but all that could be gotten out of
him was a mumble or two and a
bored look.
“Curley good fellow. Flynn nice
boy. Johnson clever fighter Don’t
know who w ill win Sympathies all
with the white man," was Jeff's
grunted statement when it came
down to a question of talking or
tossing somebody through the
door.
This is Jim's idea of giving a

zxWEN M<'KAN has. been too
’■A long at the boxing game to dis
regard the value of the "alibi."
The English chap drawls out an
explan.ntion of his Syracuse reverse
to the effect that Charley White
butted him so badly that it was
necessary to scatter a few stitches
over his face.
A trifir lame, this excuse, but we
may as well let Moran limp away
with it. What Charley White did
to the Britisher Is of no Impor
tance The question now Is what
will brother Jack White band to
Owen when the two boxers meet
in the Vernon ring one week from
this afternoon.

to he bad and his wind worse.
Outside of these few mentions, the.
Birmingham battler is reported to
be as good as new.
If Owen Puts One Over —!!!
From Frankie Conley I have It
that Moran deals out the most ter
rific punch of any of the little men.
Before my own eyes I have had It
proven that Jack White can not
come back smiling after a sharp
clip ob the chin.
White crumpled all in a heap to
the floor after Joe Rivers had mas
saged hi- Jaw with a short-arm
slam. If Moran hits as hard as
the Mexican, which he probably
does, his best chance for winning
lies in a solid thump to the max
illa.
<>n the other hand. White is a
fast and clever boxer. He probab
ly plans to avoid Moran's early
round attacks and make a long
battle out of it. In a full length
affair, she advantage figures to be
with White who is the younger
and stronger.
We will pear a whole lot more
about this pair in the next few
days to come. It is a promising
looking "muss."

Os Course Visitors Piled Victory and Tie on Tuesday's 2 Wins, But—
BARONS, THOUGH STRONG, NO WORLD-BEATERS
By Perry H. Whiting.
MOI.ESWORTH and his Bar-
ons have departed, the rich
er for the trip here by thro*
games won and one tied. They
won the third yesterday, 9 to 2.
and tied the fourth, 2 to 2, and
they they beat it.
It was a profitable trip, and they
were duly elated.
Now that the Molesworth bri
gade is gone. It Is worth *hile to
ponder a. minute on this hunch.
They wore the consensus pick for
the Southern pennant winners.
They now lead the league. And
they have just taken three and tied
one out of four from the Hemphill
ites, just when said H’ites were pre
sumed, on the strength of four
straight victories over the Mobile
Gulls, to tie “going good."
Let's have a look at these Bar
ons, position by position, and see
what it is that makes them great:
CATCHERS Vantz and Dilger.
They are a fair lot, but nothing
stupendous!) spe< tai ular. Yantz
is over short to be a great, catcher.
Roth mean well and are up to the
ave rage.
PITt 'HERS - Prough. Fox en.
Boyd, Smith and Hardgrove. A
useful bunch, but no world beat
ers. Plough looked good last
year. Foxen couldn't win for At
lanta. hut did fairly well when he
was turned over to Birmingham.
He doesn't look like a pitcher, but
is effective this year. The other
three are fair—but no wonders.
INFIELD Bill McGilvray is a
good, husky first baseman, of good
size and fair batting ability. He Is
up to the average. Marcan. at sec-
ond, is a very light hitter, but a
useful man. and likely to get on
bases with the least possible provo
cation. Ellam is a useful citizen —
no great hitter, it is true, but a
fine fielder Almeida, on the form
shown in Atlanta, is a big leaguer.
They say he plays only w hen the
notion strikes him. Well, it must
have hit him a tremendous wallop
just before he reached Atlanta.
Better work around third base
hasn't been seen since, let's see —
well, in the very dickens of a while,
at least
OUTFIELD —Mcßride is a useful
player, though not spectacular.
Jimmy Johnston is playing perhaps
a shade above his usual form this
year, but at worst he is a hustler.
Messenger. In right, is fast, a fair
hitter, and a good performer in
every way—one of the top-notch
outfielders of the league, in fact.
On the whole, the outfield is strong,
without being sensational.
UTILITY MAN—Carroll showed
a lot of stuff here, and seems to be
a likely performer.
And there you have it—a froed,
useful team, the best in the league
as things stand now; yet not a
team of overwhelming strength.
Any one of two or three teams in
the league can beat it with a little
strengthening.

yY’HAT impresses one about the
Barons is their blooming en

is a great leader. 4 in his playing
days we sized him up as a quiet,
reserved. self-possessed, rather
morose little, fat man. If a body
had assured us that be could in
spire ball players to play their
heads off for him. we should hav?
doubted It. Yet here he bobs uo
the same anomalous critter—a mo
rose fat man—with a ball team
playing like wild Indians behind
him.
Enthusiasm, willingness, zip.
pepper, inspiration, good fellow
ship and a general all-pull-togeth
cr-and-never-say-die spirit is what
has put tire Birmingham team on
the map. The guy who character
ized them as the "college ball club
of the league" wasn't far wrong.
Their enthusiasm is that of col
lege men and not of hired-by-the
month professionals.

» BOUT yesterday's ball games
there isn't so very much that
is in need of telling. As usual with
nine-inning doubleheaders there was
a lot too much of them. Rut the
crowd was big. and the folks stuck
through. In the first game the
Barons found Dessau no puzzle
whatever. Somehow the good old
right-hander didn't have it —mean-
ing curves and assorted stuff, or
else the Barons had too much—
meaning batting ability. Anyhow,
it worked out the same in the end.
