THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. SATURDAY, JULY 131907
CRACKERS HOME MONDAY FOR EIGHTEEN-GAME SESSION

I NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS
i
Banebnll writers outside ofAtlanta seem to be after Billy
Smith’secalp. <
Tlie other day a Birmingham writer took a little time off
to tell him how to run his team, and the Baron dopesters have
tried to get Bily on the run ever since he broke into the league.
Prom a South Atlantic exchange we clip this:
"Will Billy Smith make good?" Is the question that is now dis
cussed In the dally fanfests of the Atlanta faithfuls. In the an
swer to this very pertinent question there Is a condition of con
siderable Interest to the South Atlantic league.
When Billy Smith went to Atlanta he was given carte blanche
to get a winner at all costs. He could hardly be expected to land
the pennant the first year without knowing the league, the players
and the men he was to take charge of. The understanding. It Is
alleged, was that Smith was to be given two years, with ample
capital back of him, to win a pennant for the Georgia capital. The
“In and out" form displayed by the Firecrackers recently has
shaken the faith of some of the fans, and Billy Is beginning to get
uneasy.
If all that has been said anent Smith's agreement with the At
lanta club owners Is true, he will either win the pennant this Rea
son or step down and out. In that event be will take charge of
the Macon club again, If he so desires, and try to win another pen
nant for the Central City.
From a Birmingham paper we cop this:
There ore many baseball experts In Dixie who do not believe
Billy Smith Is big enough to win a pennant In the Southern
League. There Is no Intention on the part of the writer to "dig"
Billy. It Is his disposition, his humor, and his lack of moral
courage that prevents his great success.
The same opinion grows stronger each day concerning Mana-
ager Dobbs of Nashville.
No general would have lost the game yesterday In Montgomery
as Dobbs lost It. A great deal depends on the man at the helm;
more, Indeed, tlinn on the players themselves.
And so it goes around the circuit.
And strange to say, all the agitation about the retirement
of Smith comes from points outside of Atlanta.
Billy Smith bus gone on record as being willing to stay in
Atlanta. And the local directors have repeatedly expressed their
satisfaction.
So where are the rumors coming from?
Bill is in hard luck. lie manages to antagonize the sport
writers of every city but Atlanta and they put in a lot of their
time digging at him. Whenever they can not think of anything
else to write about they uncork a few feeble outbursts about
Billy Smith being forced to win the pennant or quit.
The Atlanta management has too good sense to require of
their.manager that he win the rag. They ask him to supply a
team that is "up there;” and that is all.
If you could get a pennant by ordering your manager to win
• one—what a cinch it would be. But there would have to be eight
pennants.
Last year Billy Smith “finished” the Crackers inside the
pictures. This year—with any kind of luck—his team will finish
second or third.
What more eun you ask ?
Will B. Hamilton, of the New Orleans Item, is getting slight
ly wroth over the way Eastern baseball writers jump on Charley
Frank.
Listen to'him:
Manager Frank has appenled his protest of the forfeited game
of last Tuesday over the hend of President Knvnnnugh to the
board of directors of the league, and If Memphis gets that game
It will be after the hardest kind of a fight.
The most ridiculous dopo stories of the season have boon going
the rounds to the effect that Frank would refuse to pay that
1300 fine. Of course he will refuse to pay It until the executive
bodies of the association say ha must pay It. and he doesn't think
that time will come. He Is gathering new evldenco every day and
there Is no doubt that he has a very strong case.
While boasting of Impartiality and falrneBS to all, the newspa
pers on the Smithorn circuit have been guilty of the rankest
kind of unfairness In this Memphis case. Before they knew any
thing at all about tho case they repudiated Manager Frank and
, declared that he should he fined the limit.
This criticism was heaped on him because he Is Mnnngcr Frank
of the Now Orleans Baseball Club—not becauae his act In for
feiting that game was wrong.
As n matter of fart, the sporting writers In the South are so
unfair that they will not take tho trouble or time to Investigate
charges against Frank. They presume his guilt before an In
vestigation Is mnde and Immediately denounce him.
Most of this is ntvictl.v true.
It is n standing custom to judge Frank without a hearing—
but why ?
Well, chiefly because Frank is generally on the other side
of the fence from what we are and is generally likely to be. We
judge his present ucts by bis past. We couldn’t have been with
him when ho put the (.'hiekaaaws, of Memphis, out of business; we
didn't take his side during the St. Vrain business, wo did not ex
actly sympathize with his efforts to break up the league, we can't
strictly.sav that our feelings were the same as his during that
lovely session in New Orleans last year, of which tho climax was
the arrest of Otto Jordan. And so it has always gone.
We like Charley Frank personally. He is as clover as they
make them and in his dealings with newspaper men has always
shown himself to he a gentleman. But if we judge his alleged
misdeeds a little hastily we trust that we shall be pardoned,
under the circumstances.

M’GRAW FORSAKES
DIAMOND FOR TRACK
By J. 8. A. MacDONALD.
New York. July 13.—John J. Mc
Grow, the famous Napoleon of .the
baseball diamond. Is going to leave the
national game for the turf, ppsslbly
this autumn, but at all events within
the next two years. Incidentally,’ Mc
Grow* says the race track offers the
best field for making money, either for
the capitalist or the poor young man
without funds, to be found In America
today. This Is quite characteristic of
the great little- baseball leader of the
New York Giants, who is first of all
thinker” and a sorf of a fellow who
Is usually found doing things for him
self along certain lines unique and
apart from the* general way. McGrow
doesn't believe It Is possible for a man
to run Into racing and beat the horses
by betting his money, but he does hold
that a conservative, careful business
man can master the sport so thorough,
ly, either as a bookmaker, owner or as
a professional speculator, that rich div
idends may be had from moderate In
vestment. McGrow* refuses to call rac
ing a "sport.” flays .Vac:
"Why, the game Is nothing more than
‘business’ and the man who tan
arrunge an ‘edge,’ or an advantage,
for himself over his competitors in the
betting ring and In the paddock, can
win and make money. There It Is In
a nutshell. Any man who bets on a
horse race without having nn ‘edge*
on the bookmaker 1s a boob. The men
who are making money on the turf arc
those who manage to get 50 to 1
against a natural even-money choice.
Then they take 5 to 1 to show against
For many years McGrow has been
big speculator on the horses and
with considerable success, too. This,
too, while attending to the exciting du
ties of a National League manager. He
has some nice property holdings here
In New* York and at Baltimore, Md.
Looking after this interest and pursu
ing a turf career will surely keep Me-
Graw as busy in the years to come as
he Is today. While the sporting world
will be Interested In seeing Just how
Mac makes out on the turf, no one
wants to see him lose his bank roll in
an experiment where so many before
him have failed and gone to ruin. Ir
cldentally the race horses remain the
allurement of all ball players. A well-
known Broad way commissioner has be
come wealthy Tn handling credit ac
counts for the ball players connected
with the Brooklyn and New* York Na
tional League clubs, and the Yankees,
of the American League. There Is
scarcely one of the players of these
clubs but dabbles on the horses.

Hitless Wonders;
Errorless Wonders
Such Are Babblers—Memphis Leads League
at Team Fielding, Atlanta at Team
Batting.
The Memphis team Is made up of
hltless run-getters all right. At last
reports It had made less hits than any
team in the league except New* Orleans
and less hits for extra bases than any
other team.
But when It comes to fielding Mem
phis leads the league.
During the entire season the Bab
blers have hobbled less than a hundred
times. Every other team in the league
has at least completed a century and
Montgomery holds the record with 129
errors.
The team Holding average of Mem
phis is .962 and In fielding, as in win
ning games, the Bluffers leud. At
fielding, though. New Orleans is u close
second—only two points behind, while
Atlanta is a good safe third.
Tlie New Orleans team leads In the
number of put-outs made, while Nash
ville players have pulled off the most
assists—870.
The team Melding averages of the
league follow:
Name. p.O. A. E. P.C.
Memphis 1,643 809 95 .96J
New* Orleans. . . 1970 805 112 .961

,llt!e Hock. . . . 1343 754 112 .949
Jotals 13125 6432 889 .956
The Melding average of the league Is
'f.C and tho league batting average
44. Pretty fair figures, these.
At team batting there have been no
decided changes of late.
Atlanta, instead of being tied for first
place, ns she was a few* weeks ago, is
now well out ahead, with nn average
>f ,260. .Shreveport has dropped to
cond place with .235. The only other
change Is that Little Rock has been hit
ting the nail and has passed Montgom-
ty and is batting lr. fourth place, just
b< hind Nashville.
The Memphis team, leader of
cague, Is still next to the bottom at
>utting. Only Charley Frank’s aggre
gation Is worse.
Atlanta am. Nashville are the only
anw thus fai which have made over
500 hits this season.
At run-making the Hustlers still
shine. They nave scored 269 runs off
291 hits. Atlanta hns made 262 runs
Shreveport players have hit the most
three-base hits—47 In all.
Here is the count on extra bases:
TEAM. 2b 38 hr. Tot.
Birmingham 87 35 4 169
Atlanta 87 23 4 160

New Orleans .. ..65 10 7 106

Memphis 53 17 3 96
Strange as It may seem, Montgomery
Is leading the league In base-stealing.
At sacrifice hitting Atlanta and New
Orleans are tied for first place. In the
double -play department New Orleans
especially shines.
The credit of having played the most
errorless games this season goes to At
lanta. The (’rockers have turned the
trick eighteen times. Here are the

Montgomery, Ala., July 13.-^For the
many defeats, indignities. Insults and
such heaped ujfcn the Pretzels by At-
lrnta ball player? and Atlanta fans this
year and In years past, the Montgom
ery team took full revenge here Friday
afternoon.
If you can stand the w*orst right at
the start, here It Is:
First game, Montgomery 4; Atlanta 1.
Second game, Montgomery 8, Atlan
ta 0.
For a "second-place” team Atlanta
has had an unusual lot of strange
things pinned on her this season. But
up to now she has never before sunk
to the ignominy of a double defeat at
the hands of the league tall-enders.
The first game was awful—but the J
second was a double-and-twisted case
of rubbing It In.
There was no excuse to offer except
that the Atlanta pitchers were not in
shape. Spade was sick before he left
Atlanta and he hns not Improved any.
And at that the ex-South Atlantic
performer had as good a/right to win
his game as Walsh had. For Atlanta
made 11 hits, while Montgomery made
10. Atlanta made one error to Mont
gomery's perfect Melding—and yet this
was not enough to explain why Atlanta
could convert 11 hits into only one run,
while Montgomery used one error and
ten hits In the production of four runs
—nnd a victory.
It was the old, old story of timely
hitting. Montgomery got ’em when she
needed ’em. Atlanta didn’t—and that
js. all there was to It.
Montgomery had the game won from
the start. In the Mrst Inning hits and
bases on balls netted the Pretzels three
runs and after that It was all over but
“piling It up.”
The second- game was considerably
worse—front the Atlanta point of view.
Swahn, Billy Smith’s newest venture
In the way of pitchers, started In, but
he didn’t stick. Somehow he was just
what the Pretzels liked and Smith
yanked him.
Then Russell Ford went In for a trial,
but the ex-Central Leaguer had not re
covered from his last game and proved
easy.
By that time the thing was a Joke'
Billy Smith called In George Paskert
from left Meld, sent Sweeney out in
the garden nnd George Mnlshed out
the game. He pitched creditable ball,
too, for an outftlder, but of course the
game was on the pork long before he
made his debut In the Southern League
as a pitcher.
During the entire game, which was
called In the eighth Inning on account
of darkness and because everybody had
had enough, the Pretzels made 16 hits.
The Atlanta batters could do little
with Sammy Weems, A. B., and about
three hits was all for them during the
session. Becker, Paskert nnd Jordan
were the only ones who connected.
Just to show that there was nothing
to the rumor that they were not sup
porting Weems the Pretzels turned In,
Melded perfectly, and knocked the ball
all over the lot.
In*. He helped John Malarkev
*»» " that capacity In the fli.t game’
In the second the etraln of
his team batted to bits was too m,f
f? r W'lllam nnd he turned hie Jl
the job over to Spade and went to thf
bench.
Melarkey,
however,

With yesterday’s game to Judge by It
Is evident that Sam Weems ha? ar
rived. There Is always some doubt
about a pitcher who has done well In
college. He may get on all right In
fast company or he may not. In
Weems’ case it seems to be a cinch
that he is going to make good.
The rumor that George Winters Is
to pitch today and that Becker is being
saved to twirl the opener at home is
denied here.
Twenty-five hits during the day was
nil Montgomery accomplished—and a
team batting average of .379 was what
the figures produced.
Also the Pretzels played errorless
ball during the entire game.
There is one thing sure—Billy Smith
can not have any kick on the umplr-
