THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY, A PRIM 15, 1007. CRACKERS STORM CASTLE OF THE BARONS j SPORTING PAGE EDITED BY PERCY H. WHITING I NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS GEORGIA MILITARY ACADEMY BASEBALL TEAM PERCY H. WHITING. Billy’* bunch of bail (osscrs arc away for a roa*l trip of eight games, four in Birmingham and < four in Montgomery. This trip ought to prove the mottle of the team as n road team. In the opener in Birmingham the Barons were the victor*, but that does not imply by any means that they have a warrant to make a habit of it. In fact it i* prett.y well indicated by this time that Atlanta htyt, if not a stronger,' at least as strong a team as Vaughan. » The unfortunate accident to Otto Jordan hurts at the incep tion of the road trip, but Smith is fortuunte in having Larry Hoff man to take care of the second hag. Iloffmnn is playing neat ball, and is also greatly improved in hitting. The team pulled out Sunday afternoon for Birmingham prim ed for four battles with the Barons. In their mi-ups here with the Montgomery aggregation the team demonstrated its ability to play fast, clean ball,-and fans are inclined to the belief that the bunch will do. Well, the first league gome of this season brought up our old friend—the question if a bet thnt one team would do double the other’s score is won or lost by n 1 to 0 score. This question was put up to the' sporting editor of The Geor gian and to a lot of others last season. -Most of the decisions, in cluding my owp, were that the man who had the “one-run” end of the bet was entitled to the money. Last winter the question wag taken tn again and thrashed over and over. Good mathematical authorities took the ofher'side and the bulk of expert mathematical opinion \yas that the.“no- run” man had the best of it. Can’t quite say that I am convinced. , It is apparently a bald question of multiplication. Twice nothing- is inevitably nothing. One is more than nothing. And there you are. It may be a little hard on the man who gets the wrong end of if but if he was foolish enough to bet that way he has to take tho consequences. The players shown in the pict ure are: Left to Riflht—Patterson, e oach; Mayer, p.; Griffin, cf.; Doty, p.; Chynoweth, rf.; Montgomery, If.; Al ford, 1b.; Haughton, 3b.; Whiteley, Summerlin, sub.; McMath, sub.; Wilson, sub.; Byrd, manager. 8econd Row—Forbes, sub.; Cooper, sub.; 8train, mascot; May, 2b.; Brown, shortstop. CRACKERS, SIXTEEN STRONG, IN BIRMINGHAM RIPE FOR REVENGE Sewanee Comes to Tech Flats For Three Games Because the Cracker* are away At lanta will not have a dearth or base ball this week, for Sewanee comas to Tech Flats for three’ same* Friday and Saturday. The mountain team has not been at work very long. for vacation Is just over up In the mountains, but the men that mute up the team aro considered good. Howard College, con Nashville Opens In Montgomery Special to The Georgian, Montgomery, Ata., April if.—First game on the home grounds today. This may mean much bapplnesa or much regret to the fans. Which? Nashville comes from horns fresh with three straight victories from Birmingham, while Montgomery comes home from Atlanta, where they failed to win even one out of the four games played. Notwithstanding this the fans are loyal and are conddept the Legislators are strong and that they will be heard from. Montgomery labored under a disadvantage this season. There was no chance for much practice because of the new grounds ana the Infield practically had none, while the pitch ers had to content themsflves with warming up. Walker will go In the bog for the Legislator* and on he made such a splendid showing In the opening game with Atlanta, It Is thought that he may cut down the Nashville batters. One of the Duggan boys will oppose him and It may oome down to a pitch ers’ battle. It couldn't suit the fans better. Ratchford. who was secured from Memphis, will be on first. Elsey, who has been covering the Initial sack. Is etlll with the team and ehould Katchford fall to come up to expecta tions Elsey will go on first. Nyc. who played short In tho last two games, has shown up In splendid form and the Indications are he may secure that place, but he will have to win out over the old reliable Bukch and Ball. Ball was purchased from At- ltnti. It te a known fact that Manager Ma- larky Is stilt out After men, and If he sec* one he wants and lie can get him. that man will be landed. The associa tion Is backing the manager and the fans should not be disheartened. The llne-up for today , wll be: Walker, pitcher: Hausen, catcher; Ratchford. first base; Perry, second; Nye. short; Connors, third; Apperlous. center; Houtx. left, and McCann play ing In right garden. For Nashville It will be; Duggan, pitcher; Hardy, catcher; Hackett. first; Morse, second; McCormick, short; Me. Elveeti, third; Dobbs, center; Persons, left, and Wiseman, right. Umpire Lynch Stands Firm ceded to be much weaker, had no trou ble In defeating Sewanee on her ow-<- grounds, but the mountaineers have Improved and should be well balanced when they reach Atlanta. Ed Lafitte wilt work In one of the games and Brooks and Parker In the other two. Saturday's game will be a double-header. By PERCY H. WHITING. Birmingham, Ala., April 15.—The Ati lanta baseball team Is back again In tho land of slag and sorrow and ripe for revenge on the team that dumped them In the slough on the opening day. Billy Smith brought sixteen men with him. The regular Infield and outfield Is In tact, except for Jordan, who Is at home nursing a sprained ankle. Hoffman Is along to fill hie place. All the pitchers and all the catchers are on hand. Zeller Is slated to pitch today. Ford Is due and so are Rowan and Hchopp. Probably all will be worked while here. Kagan, who went to the woods In the opening game, will he sent In this aft ernoon and Wilhelm looks like the per former tomorrow. Atlanta's three catchers are here, but Sid Smith will do the bulk of the work, with Sweeney ns the man In reserve. O’Leary's pres ence was something of a mystery until a tip went nut that he was soon to fig ure In a sale or trade. He Is a star performer, but Sweeney will be retained In preference for three reasons—he Is a cheaper man. he Is a comer, and he can act better as Fox's uhderstudy. Um pires Rudderhant and Rlnn came over with the team, 'rtie latter is badly wanted for today's opening In Mont gomery, but after he left the train last night he disappeared off the face of the map. So Birmingham has two regular umpires today, and Montgomery none. The Birmingham team reached town yesterday morning, after a jolting se ries In Nashville. Oyler, who has been out of the game for two weeks, Is likely to go In at short today or tomorrow. The weather Is cloudy and cold.

Locust Grove, Da., April II.—The Locust Grove Institute baseball team has broken a long line of defeats by winning from R. E. Lee, of Thomaston.

Gray the Locust Grove Institute has a pitcher tho peer or any In prep ranks, while Moore la psrhops tho beat In the backstopping business. With this' battery and the fast Infield It Is safe to predict that Locust Grove will be In at the finish. Hogan, catcher of tho ISOS team. Is well now and will moke a bid for first. Combs, on third.
