With more than 40 machines entered,
the first Birmingham Rollermobile race
this morning is expected to be a big suc
cess, both from the standpoint of the
boy drivers and also the officials of the
Boys’ club, who are promoting the event.
Other machines are expected to be en
tered before the start of the race at 11
o'clock, as entries will not close until

cars and have not definitely made up
their minds about entering to do so at
the last moment.
The contest is open to every boy in
the city under 15 who *s a member of
some boys’ organization or school.
As there will be a handsome trophy for
the winning team, much interest is be
ing manifested in the contest by the
Boys’ club. Boy Scout organization and
numerous others. The Boy Scouts are
especially^ interested in the race and
nearly every local troop will havg^rep
rescntatives.
The plan for a rollermoblle race for
the boys of Birmingham was proposed
by Burr Blackburn, secretary of the Boys'
club, and from its launching several weeks
ago the movement has met with hearty
reception by local boys. Plans were fur
nished by the Boys' club and many neat
little cars have been built, for the con
test.
Two boys will be allowed to each rol
lermobile, which may be of any build.
One must ride and steer the machine,
while the other pushes. There is no re
striction about alternating and they mav
do this as much as they please during
the race.
A silver loving tup and t wo gold medals
for first, second and third places have
been offered by Uie Birmingham Rail
way, Light and Tower company.

The
Wisdom
of Good
SHOES
>
It is generally agreed that men
know less about shoes than any
article of apparel that they
buy.
That is the reason a great many
men pay four dollars for foot
wear, believing that they can
not afford to pay six or seven
dollars.
It is false economy, as a six dol
lar pair of shoes is bound to
outwear two pairs of the cheap
er shoes.

II? ASA ROUNTREE, JR.
Another hoodoo has been chased from
the trail of the Barone, l'p until yester
day. when by out-rallying the Volunteers
in the ninth frame it turned a possible
defeat into a brilliant victory, the local
club was unable to render its best serv
ices when thousands of ladies were on
hand to cheer them on in their labor. In
other words, the Barons were unable to
register a game on the right side of
the ledger on ladles' day. Only once this
season have the Barons been ahle to
win and this happened soon aft«% the race
got under way. Since then the Barons
have found It well nigh Impossible to
down the opposition on these particular
days of the week.
The old .500 hoodoo was also overcome j
during the week and the Barons now
appear well on the way toward the top. ,
They have hit their stride and are now
ready to do battle with the Gulls, Look- i
outs and Pelicans for the right of way \
to the first rung.
Clyde McBride's hefty wallop-down the!
third base line aided the locals to eclipse
j the determined performance of the Vols
in their part of the ninth, and turn into
a victory a game that appeared beyond
redemption. McBride’s wallop scored two
runs, allowing the Barons to nose out a
4 to 3 win in a game that was as sen
sational as the one w»th the Lookouts
last Friday, when the Barons fought off
defeat by gamely rallying In the ninth
round and pushing across four runs after
two were down.
A Pitchers’ Battle
For eight sessions the game was a
pitchers' battle between little Boland of
the Vols and Dick Robertson of the Bar
ons. Only two hits had been yielded by
Boland and three by Robertson, and the
Barons were heading a 2 to 0 score when
the pyrotechnics commenced.
The Vols started the excitement but
the Barons ended it up in a decisive
fashion.
After Williams had struck out in the
ninth Robertson gave Callahan his base
on balls. Sloan lifted a long fly into right
center which both Stewart and Knisely
started after. Stewart signaled for the
right of way, but Knisely paid no heed
and. bumping into Stewart, attempted to
grab the ball out of *Is hand just as
he was ready to make the catch. Knise
ly's error instilled the Vols with renewed
hope and they waded into Robertson In a
determined manner.
A passed ball by Tragesser advanced
Callahan and Sloan each a base and Gib
son brought both home with a. single to
center, tieing up the score. Gibson stole
second and romped home on another sin
gle Into center off Hemmingway’s bat.
with the Vol s third run. allowing them
to forge into the lead. Paulette skied to
Magee in left and Un&say grounded to
short for the remaining outs.
McBride Delivers Wallop
In an effort to recoup the lost vantage,
Manager Moles worth sent in two pihch
1 hitters in the ninth, Carroll and Mc
Bride. Although the former failed to
deliver, the latter came through with a
' swat that turned the tide of battle.
Covington opened the final attack with
1 a dingy over second, which he beat out.
TheTJaron leader then sent In Carroll, to
bat for El lam. with no result, as he
struck out. Boland then grew a little
unsteady and Tragesser waited him out
for a base on balls. McBride was sub
stituted at the bat for Pitcher Robertapn
and he sent a drive along the left field
foul line. The lilt was easily good for a
homer, but when McBride arrived at the
third corner Tragesser crossed with the.
winning run, Covington having scored
ahead of him, and the game was over.
Robertson and Boland hitched, up in a
pitching duel at the Btart, and for four
Innings the Vol moundsnian held the
Earons hitless, while his teammates
chalked up three off Robertson In the
same space of time.
In the fifth the Barons left their dor
mant state and registered the first score
of the game on a w’alk, a sacrifice hit and
a single, their first of the fray. Knisely,
first up. was passed and was moved on
to second by Magee’s sacrifice to the
pitcher. Covington slapped a single to
right field and Knisely came home. El
lam was hit by a pitched ball and Cov
ington went up one station. With only
