after getting the pick of the Bucs, haa anything to pass along to the Barons? Barons Know What Scribes Think About Them Southern League baseball writer aren't keeping any eecret from the Raron. They have written them off a a lat plare casualty of the 1948 pennant rare. It most irritating to the fan a well the player. Old Faithful had expected a more favorable report on the Baron after going 15 year without a pennant winner. What ha Btr-mingham fans done to rate a last place club? Fan have been very kind during the famine Why did the baseball writer pick the Raron to finish last? Do they think the Raron haven't a very strong tie-up with Pittsburgh and can't get outside help They mut.

to he positive shout the Raron dwelling in the cellar. Don't they have any hope for ome kind of a cure for an aggravation that ha had the whole league talking about the poor fans who would turn out in drove, if given any encouragement? Looks like the baseball writers have given up on Birmingham. Assigned a good city to the fate of the City of Brotherly Love. Do they believe Birmingham is going lo stand for a last place club? Here's one that doesn't believe an owner like Jebeles is going to let a last place club cost him earnings of a lifetime And that is what a last place club is going to do. So he a little more cheerful than the hoys who picked the Barons for last place, It's no good to start out a season expecting the worst.

Raseball is supposed to be good for inculcating a little optimism. Atlanta has been picked to repeat. The Cracker get a break in playing their first six games with the club tagged for the cellar. The champions open at home with the Barons Friday afternoon, and play them two games Sunday. The Barons bring the Crackers back home with them for the opener Tuesday night at Rickwood Field.

The Crackers are here for threp single night games. Birmingham will bp at home for 11 games. That's a break if the Rarons can do anything about getting rid of the cellar tag They play Chattanooga four and Nashville four. There can't be any denying the fact that Frank Snyder got good pitching against Triple A and Double A clubs in exhibition games And all the while he was experimenting with catcher, infielder and outfielders. Surely he has enough of a club that another outfielder, infielder and catcher couldn't help tremendously.

And there must be some good ball players available that money can buy. No pennant, no first division club but a last place club never. Man alive, Jim Downey will be called upon to get some city leaguers before the Raron are assigned to baseball's darker regions. Volunteers will be called for out of the stands. Fans would be in favor of scuttling Rickwood before seeing it nest eellarites.

Butts' Only Worry May Be Weather When a football coach hasn't any worry but the weather, he ha a football squad Butts has ends galore and a backfield in Charlie Trippi. He's well heeled at center, guard and tackles. The Army took care of Wally's worrying over Harry Gilmer. If you want any more information in addition to what Cousin Ed Danforth. Atlanta Journal, gives on Georgia-Button hole some of the Georgia folks over here Wednesday night for the Tech alumni meeting Here's Eds slant: Georgia old grad are speculating on the reincarnation of Chick Shiver and Tom Nash, or Catfish Smith and Herb Maffett.

or even George Poschner and Van Davis. The crop of ends in Athens is round-fat. Joe Tereschinski, Weyman Sellers. Dan Edwards and pass-catching Reid Moseley are left over from the Oil Bowl winners. Pete Sasser has come out of the service to take up where he left off in 1942.

LaFayette King, now in the Marines, says he is on his way to Athens as soon as he is released. Duck' Conger, all 225 pounds of him. expects to report this Summer. The Georgia coaches are rapidly' running short of worry material. Pretty soon it may be concerned over the weather alone.
