8 5 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 2 8 12 2 3 12 0 Football Dodgers Routed BY BEN PHLEGAR NEW YORK, Aug. 28 The first night of action in the All-America Football Conferences third season showed three things. The New York Yankees again will be a title threat, Chicagos improved Rockets may cause some trouble, and Brooklyn's refurbished Dodgers probably wont cause much. The Yankees trounced the Dodgers, 21-3, in Brooklyn and the Los Angeles Dons edged the Rockets, 7-0, in Chicago last night Almost as important as the conference games was the circuits final exhibition at Toledo, Ohio, in which the Baltimore Colts, strictly tail-enders in 1947, whipped thelt champion Cleveland Browns, 21-17. It showed the Browns can be beaten, and that the Colts may have come up with a real dark-horse in Quarterback Y.
A. Tittle, wh passed for a pair of touchdowns. One of the aerial plays covered 80 yards. Chicago marched back and forth between the 10-yard lines, but bogged down when the goal lines were in sight. Brilliant punting by Glenn Dobbs kept Los Angeles in the game and the Dons one sustained drive carried over just before the first half ended.
John Kimbrough plunged from the one and Ben Agajanian kicked the point. Dobbs rocked the Chicagoans with booming kicks of 43, 62, 57, 60, 71 and 61 yards. The Rockets' T-formation never hit high gear because Angelo Ber-telli couldnt connect with his passes. He threw 19 and completed only three. Two were intercepted.
New York packed its three touchdowns into a brief offensive flurr in the third period at Brooklyn. The Dodgers had controlled the game for the first half and led 3-0 at the intermission. Spec Sanders, the league's offensive leader last year, got rolling in the third period. He covered 27 yards in two runs for the first touchdown and then scampered 60 yards for the second tally. Tom Casey, a fleet rookie from Hampton Institute, broke a conference record as he sprinted 94 yards to score the third touchdown after taking a punt on his own six-yard line.
Another conference record was broken when Harvey Johnson, of the Yanks, added his 43rd extra point without a miss. The Dodgers, despite their new rookies, couldnt offer a sustained offense. Their only points came on a field goal by Lee Tevis from the 17-yard line in the second quarter. Buffalo and San Francisco open their season tomorrow afternoon in San Francisco. is BARONS AND BOSTON RED SOX RENEW AGREEMENT Birminghams thousands baseball fans will be happy to learn that the Barons and the Be Red Sox of the American League have renewed their working agreement for another year.
George Topor-cer, left. Red Sox farm director, and Eddie Glennon, right, Baron general manager, are shown looking over the terms of the agreement in the Baron dugout during a noon workout of the Barons yesterday. The Red Sox, said Toporcer, are looking to a long and pleasant relationship with the Birmingham club. So far we are quite pleased and our relationships have been entirely harmonious. It is a pleasure to do business with men like Eddie "and Mr.
Jeb-eles. Baron General Manager Glennon and Owner G. J. Jebeles are delighted to continue the working agreement with the Red Sox, too. This first year of the agreement has been a happy one for us, Glennon said.
We expect to continue. BY WALTON LOWRY News Sports Writer George Wilsons 26th homer a towering two-run clout in the 14th inning that just barely cleared the rightfield barrier climaxed one of the most stirring baseball dramas in Rickwood history last night. Wilsons blow gave 12,079 Ladies Night customers their seasons top baseball thrill and the Barons and Frank Quinn a 2 to 1 triumph over the Mobile Bears. The win stretched the Barons current winning streak to six straight and gave them a sweep of the three-game set with the Bears. QUINN AND KEN OLSON, the Mobile ace, held the fans almost spellbound for 13 innings with a brilliant scoreless burling duel.
The tension mounted as the game went into the ninth with nothing but two long strings ot horse collars across the score-board. And the crowd was on edge with a sort of breathless expectancy as the zeros kept coming up in the extra innings with clocklike regularity. Then came the 14th. Rosy Cantrell speared Cal Abrams liner into left. Mel Hoder-lein tossed out Stan Wasiak at first.
Preston Ward rattled a double off the rightfield wall. Quinns spike caught the mound and his pitch hit Walt Sessi. Quinn went into the clubhouse to change spikes. Upon his return Art Bowland shot a single into left scoring Ward. Mickey Rutner tossed Bill Harts grounder to Eddie Lyons, forcing Bowland for the third out but that one Bear run looked unsurmounta-ble the way Olson had been mowing down the Barons.
JIM WASDELL, first up for the Barons in the 14th. grounded out. Rutner lined a single over Wasiaks head in rightcenter. Then George Wilson stepped into the batters box. He teed off on Olsons first pitch.
The ball sailed into right, rather high. It looked for a moment as if Abrams might pull it down but it was just beyond his finger tips at the height of his leap. There was a second of silence but as the ball dropped into the rightfield stands the crowd came to life and swarmed onto the field to congratulate the Barons. The win was Quinns fifth against two losses and if theres anything wrong with his $75,000 arm the Bears wont believe it. He fanned 11 Bears and exhibited marvelous control, walking only one man.
OLSON, GOING for his 15th victory, lost a heartbreaker. He set Totals 42 2 5 42 11 a Grounded out for Kearns in 10 th. Score by innings: Mobile 000 000 000 000 01-1 Birmingham 000 000 000 000 022 Summary Errors, Wasdell, Kearns. Runs batted in, Bowland, Wilson 2. Two-base hits, Bowland, Ward.

Bills brother, Fred, had the first band to ever play at Rickwood. It was in the carefree days of 1913 open streetcars and side curtains for automobiles Bill took over the band in the '20s and played at Rickwood under the open faced electric fans. The days of Carleton Molesworth and Johnny (Clap-Hands) Dobbs Those were the days of the Dixie series Rick Woodward liked band music.
He once took the Police Band to Houston for the Dixie series Its been a long time since fans beard Bill Nappis band strike-up Take Me Out to the Ball Game and that was when fans had so few cares, they didn't care if they left Rickwood or not There will be souvenir buttons given away Sunday and at the remaining games. They are labelled I Helped Birmingham Break the Southern League Attendance Record in 1948 Some of the buttons will be around 25 years hence and they will be reminders that Birmingham was quite a baseball town when its metropolitan population was a half million There may be a million living in Jefferson 25 years hence but brother they wont be any hotter baseball fans than BILL NAPPI those wearing out the turnstiles In 1948 So the president of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce kept the ball with an invitation to see Birmingham crack Atlantas record? That red light from the East is the A. C. C. president's face blushing All Atlanta will be seeing red when the good burgers learn the Magic City has stolen their claim to the best baseball city in the Southern League.
if: Walt Dropo Will Get His Chance Walt Dropo, leading Baronial hitter, will get his chance to play first base for the Boston Red Sox next year. No player has improved faster than Big Stoop. He has become a very fine fielding first baseman, especially improved at scooping up low thrown balls Dropo started off with the Barons as homerun hitter. To cut a weakness, he had to change his style and this meant more hits and well hit balls It will be up to Dropo to convince McCarthy he can play first and this wont be hard to do, If he lays into the ball as he has done for the Barons Frank Quinn is sure to stick with the Red Sox. Under the bonus contract he signed, he cant be farmed out again George Wilson is another Baron who will be batting for an outfield berth with the Red Sox in 1949.
GG has hustled all year. But for a month he lost with a broken toe, the Barons might have been closer on the heels of the Chicks and Vols Wilson took over center-field Thursday night and he was surprisingly fast He too has improved his fielding since reporting to the Barons. He always could hit The Barons have just two more series left at home. Its been a short season compared to some of the long ones the fans have had to sit out Invitations to Larry Gilberts silver anniversary came engraved in silver from the Nashville Elks. No city could be honoring a man who has done more for baseball than Larry Gilbert In our book Larry is the number one all-time manager from every angle Sometime ago New Orleans papers said Larry Gilbert would announce his retirement as a manager at the Silver Anniversary.
Will Charlie Gilbert be announced as his fathers successor? Barons-Red Sox Renew Agreement The Barons and Red Sox have renewed their working agreement for 1949. It has been a most profitable working agreement for the Barons. The Red came through with enough good players to create an all-time high interest in the Barons Without the help of the Red Sox the Barons would have been another flub-dub second division outfit Nowadays an Pastarella, Jone and Sumatra.

Minor clubs not tied up with major league clubs are having a hard time of it Wealthy independent minor league clubs cant compete with the major clubs for talent not under the new bonus rule. Six grand will not induce too many promising youngsters to get down on the dotted line Before Eddie Glennon was fortunate to get an agreement with the Red Sox, he was told the Red Sox were a great organization to do business with Glennon has certainly found this to be true. Joe Cronin, George Toporcer, Johnny Murphy and Roy Dis-singer have gone out of their way to help the Barons Joe Cronin has taken a personal interest in the Barons. He has called the Barons general manager on an average of three times a week since the season opened With the working agreement with the Red Sox came new hopes.
It's certainly reflected in the attendance a new Southern League record for sure The Barons will be back at Ocala and the Red Sox at Sarasota. This will mean easy visting There is a chance the Red Sox may send some of their chain club players to train at Ocala This would give Glennon and his manager a chance to scout future Barons George Toporcer and Johnny Murphy will remain here through the Chattanooga series. You can bet they are discussing with Eddie Glennon what the Barons will need for 1949.
