Oh pickles!
Being outside Montgomery wc have no hesitation in making
that remark.
And, anyway, this weather is an extenuating circumstance.
The Atlanta team has been unable to play three of the last six,
games scheduled. And that’s pretty tough luck.
Don’t overlook one thing, though. The Atlanta team is crip
pled now and certainly can’t be in as bad condition when these
games arc played off as sho is now. So maybe the rain helps to
stave off the bumps.
Though at that Atlanta ought to beat “them dubs” as the
Birmingham players sweetly term the Pretzels.
Says the Montgomery Journal:
There seems to be some hard feeling existing between the
Montgomery association and the Atlanta association or the At
lanta sporting writers. The article of Percy Whiting In The
Georgian has done much. It Is said, to Injure Montgomery, as It
has been copied all over the circuit. , How In the world he could
do such a thing Is what Is a mystery to the association here. He
was with the Atlanta team In Birmingham, but refused to come to
Montgomery. Wss he afraid to face the music? Was ho afraid to
come and face President Chambers and the other members of'the
association for writing that article? Many think so.
There Is much Indlgoatlon on the part of the fans over the
article.
For a fact, now, wouldn’t that remind you of the Western
Arknnsns-Indinn Territory League or something equally bushy!
Has the time arrived when n writor can not “opine” from
Birmingham that the people in that section thought Montgomery
was likely to drop out of the league! No!
As for being afraid—well, please pardon us for a large
smile. i
Montgomery was the laughing stock of the league last year,
on account of the weakness of the team. We hope that this
will not be the case this year. But by her anti-cussing crusade
and her attacks on various sporting writers sho is doing her best
to make herself ridiculous.
Says Will R. Hamilton in the New Orleans Item:
No more rubber balls, no more hidden payrolls, no more sus
pension lists.
Verily, wo are about to enter into n dull season.
In his efforts to cleanse the league. President Kavanaugh has
overstepped all bounds. Ho has deprived the baseball scribes of
the real Joy of lambasting his neighbors, which, with Southern
scribe, Is the real Joy of living In the good old summer time.
Itis too bad that the "Judge" couldn't have left us the rubbor ,
balls,Tf nothing else.
Oh, we don’t know.
Atlanta, Birmingham and Montgomery have been the storm
centers up to yet but Littlo Rock and Shreveport have broken
out in a row and by and by New Orleans will cut in for a
rucus. Everything has been reasonably peaceful up to yet be
cause there has been no baseball outside of the two sections.
Wait until the Eastern clubs get over the West. Then the hair
and gore will fly.
Fred Tenny has gone on record with the remark: “We want
ball players who,mako errors.”
Sure, we do, but not too Warned many.
Here is a little josh that Hugh Roberts, of the Birmingham
Age-Herald, hands Montgomery:
It reminds one of the code of the duello, those demands for
apologies and refusal of same down In Montgomery.
It Is said that Manager Smith used profane language at a
baseball game. President Chambers demanded that an apology
be made before the grandstand.
To do this, naturally. Smith declined. At the police station both
men bowed, the one writing the other a special apology, and the
other writing In reply an acceptance.
Such formality Is better suited for the floor of'a bal poudre.
French duels In baseball do not enhance the Interest that Is cen
tered In tho game.
HOW CRACKERS
ARE BATTING
Batting averages do not mean much
at this time of the year. No player has
really, hit his stride, and It takes u
month or two of shaking down and
averaging up before It Is possible to tell
Just where a player Is likely to stand.
But batting averages are always In
teresting. and the Atlanta averages to
date are here given. They were figured
by Tracy, the Dope Artist, and he says
they are correct. '
Paskert has made the most hits this
year—11 In all, and Louis Castro Is
next with 10. Becker has drawn the
most "at bats,” and Winters and Dyer
are tied for the distinction of having
made the most runs—some 0 apiece.
The averages follow:
AB. R. H. PC.
Winters S3 6 7 .212
Becker 37 6 7 .189
8. Smith 22 4 9 .409

Question Answers
Sporting Editor The Georgian;
Please answer, through the sporting
columns of your paper, whether a team
In can change pitcher*. In ninth Inning
of game, taking player who Is tn game
from his position to pitcher's box and
g ltcher taking his place In the field,
ut not leaving game. Thanking you
for this Information, yours truly,
W. M. SEARCY.
Cairo. Go., April 13, 190*.
Such a change Is allowable under the
rules and Is often made, especially In
college gomes. Practically no restric-.
tlon is made on changes, except tluu
only nine men can be In the game at
any time for either side, and that any
mao who goea out of the game must
•lay out.

Matt Hicks Dead
New York. April 23.—Matt Hicks, an
old-time; baseball player, who played
with the old New York Mutuals and
the Cincinnati Red Stockings, wan
found dead yesterday In u room In Nae-
gle’s Hotel at Third and Hudson
streets, Hoboken..
M'CAFFREY.
Here Is the captain of the Uni
versity of Georgia track team for
1907. He Is a star performer and a
sure point-winner for his team.
ONE MORE WHACK AT PRETZELS,
THEN CRACKERS HIKE HOMEWARD
A soxtling rain put baseball out of
business again at Montgomery Monday
and the Atlanta team was again con
fined to Its hotel.
This Is the third offense on the part
of the weather bureau during tho pres
ent trip of the Crackers and the spirits
of .the players must be down pretty
close to xero. This business of barn
storming In the rain Is wet and tedious
business.
The Crackers make another stagger
nt It today and then return' home for a
series with Nashville and then one with
Birmingham.
This promises to be the last series of
engagements In old Piedmont park.
After these games are over the team
goes on the road for the first long trip
and when It returns It Is expected that
the new Ponce DeLeon park will be
ready for occupancy.
Rube Zeller Is down to pitch Wednes
day’s game against the Nashville team,
which Is hard luck for the Dobbers.
O’Leary or Sweeney will do the catch
ing. and of course Larry Hoffman will
be at second. Neither Sid Smith nor
Otto Jordan Is likely to get In the game
this week.
MONTGOMERY FANS ALL STIRRED UP
OVER PREVARICATIONS AND PROFANITY
JpFF WILL FIGHT IF
SQUIRES WINS TITLE
Los Angeles, April 23.—James J. Jeffries says he will return to
the ring If the title of heavyweight champion becomes the property
of a foreigner. If It remains In American hands he will not leave
hla retirement. Here Is his own statement;
By JAMES J. JEFFRIES.
Will I fight Bill Squires, the Australian champion pugilist?
Yes, If he wins the American championship from an Ameri
can. .
I have retired and do not wish to go bock Into the ring. I have
no love for the glove battles, but I saw a chance to win a com
petency In a few short years and I took ft.
I have this now. It I* safely Invested where I can not lose It
and where It win bring me a comfortable Income for the rest of my
life, so I don’t need to fight again.
My wife wants to see the historic places of Europe, and I too
have a desire to visit places I have heard of and read about. I shall
sail for Europe as scheduled and meanwhile Mr. Squires will
tbrash out the situation with the ambitious young fighters of today
They ore a,fair lot and will keep this fellow busy unless I am
much mistaken.
Should he whip the best American fighters and win from them
the championship, I’ll cut short my travels find come back to take a
whirl at the old game.
I don’t wave the star spangled banner every time I get a
chance, to get a gallery yell, but I am a good American for all that,
and I don’t want to see the championship held by a foreigner If i
can help It.
I have read Squires’ statement. It Is a nice, straightforward
manly appeal. It Impresses me favorably.
I hod a letter from Billy Delaney today. Billy, was present <
when Squires gave an exhibition before a number of newspaper
men. photographers and fight experts last week. Billy says Squires
Is a likely-looking fellow, very strong, hardy, with plenty of pun
ishing power, a good, strong fighting face, not very big In measure
ments, but what we call a big little man—that Is, every ounce of him
Is fighting weight. >
Billy does not say so, but lie seems to think that Jack: O'Brien
may outpoint him, and that he will whip Tommy Bums.
Anyway, Billy thinks he Is a good one.
