By FRED BODEKER
Diminutive Dick Robertson returned
to form yesterday against the Nash
ville Volunteers and the Barons won
the final game of the series 2 to 1.
Tom Rogers, on the mound foe the
Vols, got a liad start and the Vols were
never able to overcome the two-ruu
lead the Barons scored In the first.
The Barons fielded sensationally, es
pecially Danny Clark, who made a
great one-banded stab of Paulett’s
liner In the ninth, aud Captain Roy El
lam, who made some impossible stops.
On the other hand, fast fielding by
Jack Farmer nipped practically every
Baron rally after the first. He partic
ipated In three double plays.
Robbie was right yesterday and a
Baron defeat was practically impossible.
Not a hit was secured off his delivery
until the fourth and only six balls reached
the outfield during the entire battle. lie '
liad his spitter working perfectly—in fact,
he worked it overtime on the dei’eaLu
Vole. However, only three strike-outs are
erdited to the young phenom.
The Barons had the bases occupied in
every inning except the third and eighth.
In the second, fifth and. sixth a fast dou
ble play ended the scoring possibilities.
Rogers was generous, with his free trips
and this paved tho way for the Barons"
only counters.
The batting order was changed yester
day and the effect was great. Dunnie
Clark returned to the keystone while
Carroll was benched. Dannie played a
great game, his best for a long time.
Barons Score
Tod Sloan was awarded with a free trip
to first, the Vol twlrler being unable to
. locate the platter. •'Jeems" Magee placed
a perfect sacrifice down the first base line
and Tudrick had no trouble In reacnlng
second, while Jimmie was being thrown
out. Bill Lindsay made a brave elfort
to land a safety, but fortunately for the
Vols his attempt was a hard liner to
Lalahan. Young Dannie stepped into one
of Rogers' fast ones and landed it up
against the right field fence. Sloan
scored on the slam, while Dannie an
chored at second. Mickey Coyle then put
a hard drive over Calahan's head in left,
but was also held to a double by fast
fielding. Dannie took his time and scored.
Cecil Coombs did the "watchful waiting”
stunt and fell a victim to called strikes
for the third out. ,
E'lam started oft the second by re- (
Reiving a pass and was sacrificed to sec- ,
ond by “Shotgun” Wallace. On tho hit ,
and run, Robbie sent a liner to left cen- j
ter, but a sensational catch by Farmer
ended In a double play, Ellam being al- J
most home when the hall was caught and .
was easily doubled at second. ,
In the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh the j
first Baron batter reached first, but was s
kept from the plate by faultless fieloing J
and air tight pitching by Rogers, who j
■was continually getting stronger, liad j
the Barons been able to have bunched ,
their hits aB they did in the opening ,
round they would have rolled up a large
■core.
Vols Make One
The Vols' lonely counter came in the
aixth. WlthAwo down. Dolly Stark J
worked DlclfTor a free ticket. He swiped \
second when Wallace's peg was a bit I
wild. Baker walloped a hard drive dow’n J
the first base line that passed Mickey Jlka ]
a flash. Dolly scored on the "fence F
rocker” and the Vo! right gardener was 5
contented with a double. Roy Ellam then F
saved the day when he made a running 1
stop of Gene Paulette's drive' through the
pltcher'B box and threw him out at first
on a beautiful peg.
The Vols never became dangerous after
this, although they did get runners on 1
the sacks in many of the remaining In- A
Dings, mostly after two runners were out.
Today the Barons will open with a I
double header against the Crackers. F
Perryman and Black will do the twining n
for Moley, while Billy Smith wil! prob- 2,
ably work Virgil Day and Reeling. e

I McLoughlin and Williams
Win Matches—Other
Favorites Win
F»re»« Hills. N. Y., August 31_A
number ot brilliant tennis matches
marked the opening round of the
thirty-fifth nnnunl championship tour
nament of the National Lawn Tennis
association here today. Although the
leading experts came through almost
without exception, several had nto play
top rank tennis.
Maurice E. McLaughlin of San Fran
cieoo, the Internationalist and former
champion, and R. Norris Williams. 2nd,
tire present title holder, were among
those who escaped a hard first round.
McLoughlin drew Ernest F. Kuhn of
Germany and hardly got warmed up
defeating the foreign racquet wleider,
6-1, 6-1, 6-0. Williams did not appear
upon the courts; his opponent, Adrian
Klker, defaulted.
Frederick B. Alexander of New York
beat Nat W, Niles of Boston only after
a five-set struggle. More than two
hours of the hardest kind of play was
necessary before Alexander emerged
victorrby scores of 6-3, 6-7, 7-6, 8-10
and 6-2.
H. H. Hackett of New York, former
holder of the doubles title, with Alex
ander, was not as fortunate as Ills erst
while teammate, for he went down to
defeat before William M. Johnson of
San Francisco, in straight sets, 6-1, 6-3,
10-8.
The longest set of the day developed
in the match between G. M. Bull. Jr,
and Lyle E. Mahan, both of New York.
The third set of this contest was won
by Bull at 12-10, but the struggle in
the hot sun left Mahan weak and he
easily succumbed, the full score of the
making being 4-6, 6-2, 12-10, 6-4 in fa
vor of Bull.
Another match that developed strenu
ous tennis was that between \Vard
Dawson of Los Angeles and J. G. Mc
Kay of New York. The easterner
forced the latest of the Pacific, coast
stars to go five full sets to win, the
scores being 6-3, 2-6, 4-6, 6-2, 6-1.
Clarence ,T. Griffin of San Francisco
had an easier win over A. D. Thayer
of Philadelphia. Griffin never gave
the Quaker City player a chance to
go into the lead, and the CaJltornlan
always held the stronger stroke In
emergencies, and won at 6-2, 6-2, 6-1.
Harold Throckmorton, the Sewaren,
N. J., scholastic star, also met a su
perior racquet wleider in E. H. Whit
ney, the former Harvard player, who
won at 6-2, 4-6, 6-4, 6-1. Throckmor
ton played excellent tennis, but was
drawn Hgaiust a steadier and more
experienced opponent.
Other players of note who came
through to the second round included
T. R. Pell of New York, who defeatod
Alan Fox, George M. Church of Prince
ton, who won from G. S. McKearln;
Dean Mathey of Cranford, N. J., who
defeated Dudley Roberta; Wallace F
Johnson of Philadelphia, who put out
E. H. Hooker; Karl H. Behr of New
York, who defeated H. C. Martin of
New York, and Robert Lercy of New
York, who won from William Rosen
baum of New York.

Backfield Will Be Strong
t Hr m. j. nowHi i:
Auburn, September J.—t Special.)
Although It Is 10 days yet before reg
ular practice begin*, atlll the au
tumnal tang In the nlr haa act the
mlnda of everyone “plgaklgrvard.” In
looking over Auburn** pronpecta the
ountandlng fact la the number of ab
Kcucea. Auburn loaea what would re
nemhle very much the nll-aouthern
pick of many acrlhea.
The sure losses include the following:
Robinson and Ifcarley; Thigpen, Pitts and
I.ouisell from the line; Arnold, Hart and
Harris from the back field; Culpepper and
Martin, end arid tackle. The last two
were little Inferior to the others and
have done valuable work In the last two
years.
The next step la, of course, to take a
survey and see what is available to fill the
gaping holes left by these stars. Hirst
year men will be eligible for a good many
of the games, but past experience has
shown very few if any capable of filling
a regular position the first year. There
Is more football played now, however,
and the standard Is gradually being rniaeil
so that there may he some amongst the
new' ones coming that may bo able to
help out. If there are any such they will
be as welcome as the flowers in May ajid
will get every opportunity to display
their line of stock.
It is not the policy, however, to have
any vacancy waiting for a nv man to
fill. The dependence as usutl will be
placed on the subs, scrubs, and class
men. To fill the end positions the most
promising are Pete Benner. Burns and
Steed. Bonner ami Burns are brothers
of former football stars and are promis
ing players. Steed can play' end or tackle
and will be used yvhere lie is most needed.
"Babe" Taylor will be the only regular
left in the line if Steed is used al end.
He will be better than ever and will be
of invaluable aid to the green line lie
will very likely be used ns be was last
year. For center Cary Robinson is the
leading candidate. He is the lightest cen
ter Auburn has had In a decade, but Is
also the most aggrosslve. He is about
ready to step Into "Booxer" Pitts* shoes.
He has saved and nursed for the last two
years.
Sample Is another player that lias been
brought nlong under the cover of the
former linemen and who is now reuily to
step into tlio front line of battle. He is ,
nn aggressive player that fights every
minute. For the other positions there are
Fricke, Campbell, Davis, Zeke Bonner
and some other husky class men who have
yet to show.
It is possible a’so that Jack Wynne »f
the 1913 team may return. If he does his
position will he well taken care of. In
spite of the severe losses, the backfieUI
appears to be in better shape than the
line. There will be left Hides. Hairston,
and Prendergast. Hairston and Prender
gast are Just getting into top form and
will do well this year. Kaufman, a for
mer Clemson end, will be on hand and
will try out for the backfir’d, where he
has shown possibilities. Other candidates
are “Shorty’' Wren, Phillips, Scott and
Rickenbaker. As has been said, iliere
are some new men coming that may help
out considerably.

Series Starts With Double
Bill—Interesting Fig
ures on Teams
According to th© dope, which suffered *
such a violent upheaval in th© series .
with Nashville, Birmingham should
realize a gain at th© expense of At
lanta. Molesworth's team has won 10
games from Atlanta and has lost hut
5. Elliott Dent, who has since departed,
was responsible for two of the victories r
over th© Barons, while Kelly, Hiett and
Thompson have won a single battle.
In tho double-header this afternoon,
the Baron fans will witness several new
comers in action. Milton Reed Is playing
short in place of Bisland, who is out for
the rest of the season. Pitcher Redding,
who was procured to replace Kelly when
he went to Pittsburg, is slated to pitch
the second battle, if he is worked lit
turn. Outfielder Matthew’s, wrho starred
for Albany, in the South Atlantic, may
he given a chance in the garden.
Among the star attractions of Atlanta
is Eddie McDonald, the old Bfrmingham
third baseman. Eddie is performing in
the lead-off role, and is playing a jam-up
game, hitting the ball hard, stealing a
number of bases, and is supposed to have
drawn as many base on balls as any man
In the Southern. Carl Thompson, the
other erstwhile Baron, pitched against
Memphis yesterday.
