Memphis Easily the Champions in Race for Dixie Pennant Abbott’s Boys Started in First Place and They’re Still There. By JACK BETHEA, Birmingham Post., 8-ports Editor. BIRMINGHAM, Ang. 22.—With the end of the Southern Association season less than thirty days away, the only remaining point of Interest is who will be runner up to Memphis. Spencer Abott’s machine this year performed a feat unprecedented In Southern Association history. Taking the lead on the first day. It has never since been displaced. It will finish the season withont ever having moved out of first place. New Orleans now bids fair to finish second with Birmingham a poor third and Little Rock winding up the first division. If any element of uncertainty is still to be Introduced Into the league. Birmingham will furnish It In the struggle to regain second place. Little Rock, over 150 points behind, is not regarded as dangerous. The year has been slightly stale In the Southern Association. Economic depression has been felt in every city and this condition was aggregated by a lack of Interest due to the commanding lead maintained by Memphis at all times.

AN INNING WITH THE AMATEURS By CHARLIE LOGAN.
TIMES TOURNEY UNDER WAY Marked by enthusiasm that touched everv section of the city the Dailj limes independent baseball tournament got un der eay yesterday and by nightfall fifteen teams had been eliminated definite!? and two clubs were lodged for the lime being until a protest could be settled The Highlands and Boy* Club Juniors are the teams engaged in the dispute, and this difference will be ironed out at a meeting Wednesday. Ihe game ii'.her will be awarded to one of the teams cr the game ordered played over. Some of the first round games yeater day were close, others were more decisive. but in every instance the players participating gave their beat and fought all the way. Second round gain-s will be staged next Sunday, with yesterday a sixteen winning teams playing It U evident the Daily Times trophy meaus something to the young players of the city, for this year Just double the number of clubs entered that participated in the event last summer In addition to the cup this time a big league baseball autographed by Babe Ruth, home run king, is to be awarded the victorious club in the tourney. Ruth was told of the tourney when he visited the city last Tueadav, and he said: “I m Cor the kids; sure ill autograph a ball tor an event like that" At any rate, the Times tournament opened yesterday with all the success that could be expected under the eircum stances and the remaining games doubtless wiii attract even greater interest. At nearly all games yesterday tha crowds were big. for neighborhood fans were tut In numbers to boost for their pari.oular team. Pitcher Adam Goebier opened his series campaign for the North Side AllStars In a blaze of glory. He hurled a no-hit, no-run game, and defeated the B A. C.s, 17 to 0. The Stars pounded the slants of Oaks almost at will, scoring in every round. Leudeman and Hitlse bad to much stuff for the Rhodlus Live Wire batters, arid the Pilot All Stars went over for a 31 to 0 victory. The Boys’ Club Cnbs registered five runs in the tenth to beat the Highlands, to 5. The Highlands assert that the club used ineligible players in the big round, and have filed protest on this ground. The Highlands also ass.rt the rlub team used a player as a pinch hitter late in the game after he had ben taken out of the game in an early ining. Prettv soft for Huzzie Harris and his ever ready Militaries. The Indianapolis Theaters didn't appear for their game with the west-end boys. Johnny Martin hurled the Central A. C.s to a win over the Saint Anthony Y. P. C. nine (King Midaa), the count being 6 to 4. The Centrals stacked up pretty well in the opening game. One of the hottest scraps of the tourney was put on by the Southern Gray Juniors and Sooth Side Stßrs, the Juniors coming out on the long end of an 8 to 7 count. Schuck of the Grays fanned twelve men. Frye of the Riley All Stars had too much stuff for the E. C. Atkins Silver Steels, ne fanned sixteen men and allowed but three hits. Tha Atkins got their first hit In the eighth round, but they fought hard ail the way. Schott supplied the fielding and hitting features in the Turner-Meldon game, which went to the Turners by a 20 to 7 count. The Turners are battling for the second Times trophy this season and it looks as thought they had a mighty good chnnee of repeating their 1920 performance. The Clifton A. C.s got away to plenty of start in thetr game with the Midways, but they soon dropped speed and were handed a 15 to 5 defeat. It was an easy day’s work for the Riverside A. A.s They trouced tho Indianapolis Senators. 25 to 3. Another north side clnb came tearing through when the Mapletons let the Indianapolis Reserves have It, 10 to 3. The Mapletons and Centrals should certainly give the north side some real representation In the tourney. George Nevltt’s Fernd:<le crowd coasted through to the second round when tho inBi# League Stuff Shocker and Bayne silenced the Yankee batteries In a double-header and the Browns won two games. Meanwhile tlie !mgne~)eadlng Cleveland Indian*, with Sotheron giving up only six hits, took tho measure of the Red Sox. Bunched hits off BUI Builey of the Cardinals enabled the Giants to turn Sunday into a field day. Harry Heilman’s homer in the sixth with two on helped Howard Ehmke celebrate bis return to the mound after recovery from an iujury. with a triumph over the As. Right Fielder Smith of the Washington Senators made fonr of Washington's ten hits a* Chicago. Melt ridge pitched tight ball against the Sox. •Dutch Reuther made two two-baggers and gave the Reds but six hits la ExujjkAifl. - - •

Tho Bells and Odd Fellows won their semi-final games at Eagles Park Saturday offering a record crowd of amateur fans some of the classiest sandlot ball of the season. Tho Bell-Kahn game was one of the best ever put on before a gathering nf sandlot fans. Rex Dawson, former In dlanapolis Association pit* her, worked on the hill for the Bells and allowed but two hits, and Smith held the Bell batters to six blows. The Kahns opened the scoring In tho sixth frame when Butler raised one over the fence into the canal for the circuit trip, and the Telephoners got. back on even terms with them in Ihe seventh when Schott put one in the same place. A single, two sacrifice bits and an error brought Tipton home with the winning run for the 19'.9 champs in tho eighth inning. The score was 2 to 1. | The Rrooksides handed It to the Southport Baptists in n decisive manner, tho count being 5 and 1. Good pitching again featured in this scrap, with K retching bolding his Brookslde opponents to five scattered blows. Goeft, Mcßlfresh and Grnnd were the heavy hitters for the Brookslde team, each driving out a brace of hits. The brand of ball displayed by the winning combinations Saturday is ample proof that Indianapolis is going to be represented by a bail club of* real strength In the national series, regard less of which is the winner in the final tilt. The Harrison Midgets are back with a bolstered line-up and are now ready to Jump Into the fight for the 13 yearold championship of the city. The Har rlsons opened their “comeback" drive with a 10 to 6 victory over the Sapnn Juniors Sunday in a snappy contest fen tured by the hitting of Fleschmann.

Pirate Hopes Glow as They Hold Big Lead Over Giants Gibson's Boys Look Safe With 6 l-2-Game Edge—American Race Warm. BY JACK YEIOCK. International News Sport* Editor. NEW YORK. Ang 22—If George Gibson's blustering Buccanneer* go through the present week without stubbing a toe, the National Liague pennant race will he as good as ever The Pirates started the we-k today with a lead of six and a half games over the second place Giants Tomorrow they will wind up their farewell series season in Boston and then visit the I’oio grouuds for the last time this summer. The fast fading chances of the McGrawmen will be strongly affected as a result of their meeting with Pittsburgh this week. New York is not out of the running and it probably will be some time before the race is settled to a mathematical certainty, but ns the teams now stand, the Giants have a gigantic task ahead of them If they are to head the pace makers. Pittsburgh can afford to lose ground and still have ail the better of it. for McGraw's men have lost eight more games than the Pirates and have only thirty-six more to play against thirtynine for the league leader*. At the rate the Pirates have been going, they will wind up the season with about 108 victories against 54 defeats unless they falter badly from now on. In th\ American League the Cleveland Indians and New s'ork Yankees are so close together today that figuring mathe matieal ehaneee is scarcely worth while. Clevelannd has thirty-nine more games to play, however, and should the world's champions win nineteen of rheas games, the Hugmen would hsve to win twentythree out, of their remaining forty -two ot cop the gonfalon.

Mrs. Mallory, In defeating Miss Browne .Saturday, played one of the best matches of her career In the ex-tltlo-holder, who is now 28 years old. Mrs. Mallory faced n nopponent. too danger ous to be trifled with at any stage of the game. Miss Browne, however, gained some satisfaction and much honor for the months of training which she has spent in preparation for the return to tho I courts, for although her vallaut effort to j regain the singles crown was a failure, i she was successful, with Mrs. Louise William of Los Angeles, In lifting the j doubles championship by scores of 6-3, 6-2. This pair now enjoys the distinc I tion of having hold the doubles title three times. They were victorious In tha event In 1913 and 1914. Mrs. L.

TRIBE UNCORKS HEAVY WALLOP Indians Win Three Times Over Week-End. Downing Brewers Twice. MILWAUKEE. Aug 22—Brewer fans were still dizzy today over the unexpected knock-out punch handed their pennan hopefuls by Jack Hendricks' In Uians In the Sunday double-header. It was quite an upset to Ihe dope, and when .la k Egan's Brewers finished mi the short eml in both struggles the rooters diiin t know exactly how to take it. When it as de id dto play two games on the Sal h i the u> al inns v-r > all am: cs. for ti. ■ nidi,; nil? believ and ti e Eganites would “take two.” Then it hap]>. 1: <i In the opening contest of the after noon the Hoes ers donned their balling togs and behind Petty's good pitching in decisive fashion, the s ore being 10 to 4. Petty was in good form, and in winning the game he beat one of the league's beat hurlers. Virgin Barnes, The Tribe southpaw was right after he settled down and he kept piling up strike-outs until be had eleven to his < redit. Clint Rogge took the mound for the Hooaiera lu the second fracas and although he was touch, and lively, his mates held him up and backed him up with the result that Rogge tnried in a 13 to 7 victory The Indians plastered the ball ever the lot in this game, getting a lolal of nineteen safeties. Gaw. the starting p icfier for the Brewers failed to show effectiveness and the Indians soon knocked him out. Sherman relieved him. but the Indians were not to be denied and they pounded his offerings for more hits and tuns. It was quite s week-end for the Indians and they were feeling ehesty today. In the wind up at Kansas City Saturday the Tribesmen found themselves and downed the slugging Blues, 8 to 0, behind the good pitching of Harry Weaves. Leaving at once for this city they made a hurried trip, unpacked the bat bags and proceded to knock the Brewers for “two” yesterday. Perhaps it's a late-season punch.
