TIM A'i'JjAiN'TA OEOK<J1AJ\ T AXD NEWS. TUESDAY. APRIL'23, 1907. CRACKERS OPEN WEDNESDAY WITH BOOSTERS SPORTING PAGE EDITED BY PERCY H. WHITING [ IHMMHHIII * A SPEEDY GEORGIAN. NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS , m h.l ■ 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.

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.
