TilK ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NJUVVS. MONDAY, AUGUST 19,1907. t LAST CAMPAIGN THROUGH WEST BEGAN ON SUNDAY SPORTING PAGE EDITED BY PERCY H. WHITING »••••••••••••( NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS "We win the pennant sure.” "Atlanta has got the greatest team in the world.” "We knew Memphis was easy.” "It’s all over but the shouting.” If this isn’t the way Atlanta fans talk it is at least the way they feel at present. The Craekers took the opener and downed the Memphis team on its own grounds. And it is hard to feel gloomy after that. How the same fans will feel if the Crackers lose all the rest' of the games to Memphis is another story. But somehow all of us have a large, fat hunch that Atlanta is not going to lose them all. If luck will only break right and all the players will stay in good condition the prospects look bright for a win or two. It’s a hard, cold world thongb, that West. Any team from the East that ventures over there is taking a chnnce. If the Crackers can win they are the best ever. If they lose it’s all in the day’s work. But right now, with the team in the lead and going strong, the prospects look bright. Says Hugh Roberts in The Birmingham Age-IIerald: Manager Vaughn denies having said all that Percy Whiting of The Atlanta Georgian charged him with. He states that he In no wise criticised the local manage ment, nor did be indicate that the directors must come to him on bended knees If they desired his services for another term. The talk with tho writer, according to the manager, was In formal, altogether. And this, from Harry Vanghnl Far be it from the writer to rush into print and call anybody a prevaricator or anything like that. But if Harry Vaughn says that he did not say in substance what he was quoted as saying in The Georgian then Harry Vaughn has edged so close to the shores of prevarication that you could hardly tell his remarks from genuine mendacity. COTTON STATES PERFORMERS CRACKERS NOW LEAD Sunday’s Victory Sends At lanta Ahead of . » Memphis. WESTERN INVASION BEGINS WITH RUSH HENRY SAILLARD. BATE8 FISHER. Saillard it playing first base for the Jackson team of the Cotton States mg wml. League and doing'well. He was formerly the manager, but resigned to make a place for Roy Montgomery. Fisher is a Nashville boy and brother of Newt Fisher, tho Nashville mogul of the early days of the present Southern League. IS INNINGS,. BUT NO SCORE This is one of Ilnrry Vaughn’s tricks. When talking for pub lication ho loves to talk of tho beautiful scenery, the bright fur niture, the delightful weather and things like that. If by chance he happens to say anything worth printing and it is printed he goes home and dqpies it. lie has done it for every writer in the league who ever got anything worth publishing out of him. Very likely Vaughn did not say, word-for-word, what we quoted him as saying. But if Tho Georgian article was not cor rect in meaning to the letter, then wo don’t understand the lan guage “as she is spoke” by Vaughn. When Vaughn states that the talk was “informal altogether” he again takes unjustified liberties with tho tmth. When a man talks with a newspaper reporter who has come to him for news he naturally takes a chance of seeing in the pappr some of his remarks, provided he does not ask that they be suppressed. But on this occasion Vaughn knew so well that what he said was going to be used that ho asked the writer not to men. tion one statement he made—to-wit: the charge that orto man was at the bottom of the attempt made all this year to overthrow him os manager. Lack of tho kind of nerve that makes a man stand for what he says may account for tho poor showing of Vnughn’s tenm this year. Evidently he has let his own players run all over him and obviously they could have played bettor ball if they had had a manager who could have made them do anywhere near their best. We have been sorry for Vaughn at odd times. IIo has been in a pretty warm position all the season. But by such acts as his recent one he estranges himself from tho.se who over had any feel ing in his favor. Macon, Ga., Aug. 10.—In the last game with Savannah this season, both Macon and the visitors played the finest game of baseball ever seen at Central City park. For fifteen Innings both teams played like flende, but neither side could score. Rowan, the old Atlanta pitcher, woe In the box for Macon and pitched a brilliant game of ball. In the fifteen Innings only four hits were secured off of him. He struck out twelve men and only walked three, a record for Macon pitchers. Denver, the Savannah pitcher, also pitched a fine game, allowing eight hits. At no stage during the game was either side even close to scoring. Tho team work on both sides was perfect, but for on# error made by Stafford. This afternoon Macon faces Colum bia and will play threb games with the tall-enders before Jacksonville comes here for three. Then Macon tnkes to the road for a series of three games with Jacksonville. At the end of that time she returns home, finishing the season with Augusta. The score:' ab. Huff Leads All Contestants In Georgia State Shoot The best score made by any of the professionals In the last day of the Atlanta Gun club’s shoot was the 112 of Walter Huff. He missed but 8 birds during the day. The best work by an amateur was done by Rogers. The scores of the third day’s shoot, together with the totals for the three days, will be found below. The best record for the whole shoot was made by Huff, who broke 678 out of 800. Crayton .. .. ..

DEFEATS CLARKSTON. The L. and N. team, of The Georgian Commercial League, journeyed to Clarkiton Saturday and defeated the team representing that city In a rather slow game by a score of 10 to 4.

The first game In Memphis has come and gone and Atlanta leads the league. The margin Is small enough, to a cer tainty; but It Is something pretty nota ble to lead this Southern race, be It for ever so short a time. A win on Monday will put the Crack ers just one block nearer Easy street. A loss will drop them back one sec. tlon nearer to Trouble alley. So here’s hoping for a win. CRACKERS WIN AND NOW LEAD LEAGUE Down the Dreaded Memphii on Their Own Turtle Back, and Grab Lead in Pennant Race. It Is almost too much to expect that Atlanta will keep In front during this trip through the West. If she does tho race Is sewed up In a sack. For, if Atlanta comes home In the lead, no team in tho business can head her. However, such a thing Is a little too good to be true, and Billy Smith’s main fight will be to stay so near the top that the position can be regained when the Craokers return home for the season’s wind-up. If they can stay so near that eight or ten. wins out of the remaining twelve games will bring them victory then Atlanta Is pretty likely to float a rag. Atlanta fans have set themselves on the winning of the rag. If Smith loses It he will be footballed.—Birmingham News. Wrong again. Bill Smith wilt be with us next year. It seem, likely that Vaughn will man age Birmingham next year. He said when here that he would have to have a decision from the directors at once and that, .If he stayed, ho wanted to go right out tedbtlng for players. Well, ho has returned to Birmingham, no announcement has been made of his retirement and he has gono on a long scouting trip. Southern. Atlsnts 4, Memphis 0.

The fielding of both teams was brilliant at times, while the work of the opposing s)abmen, Al ford and Chewnlnr, was very effective. Alford retired twelve men by the strike out route, and Chewnlng struck out eight. , With two men down In the ninth, Scottdale scored two runs an two hits. In the sixth, Williams lilt for a home run.

The manner In which Weatherly covered the first bag is also worth mentioning. GOOD GAME AT FAIRBURN. Falrbum, Go.. Aug. 19.—Douglasvllle on Thursday afternoon defeated the Falrbum baseball team by a score of 5 to 0. The game was called at the end of the flfth Inning on account of rain. The only feature was the brilliant work and heavy hutting of Bartlett at second base for the visitors. The batteries were; for Douglasvllle, Selman and Enterkln; for Falrbum, Greene and Jones. Local fans will remember "Red” Ehret, the ex-blg league pitcher who was with Memphis and afterwards Montgomery. Here are the sad facts of "Red’s” baseball finish: Seattle fans In the right field bleachers became angered because Um pire "Red” Ehret allowed Butte to score the winning run In the tenth Inning, and made a mad rush for him.' Ehret had his back turned and did not see a man thrown out at first, which would have ended the Inning. The fans In the right field bleachers roared their disapproval and a mob started toward the field. A high railing makes It hard to get out of the bleachers and the crowd surged toward the entrance. The frail .bannister along the side gave way and about 100 men and boys were hurled to the ground, some falling fif teen feet, with the crowd piling down on top of them. Con Walsh. Seattle’s pitcher, who had run out to head off the crowd, was knocked down and trampled upon In the crowd’s frensy. His left arm was badly bruised and swollen. Helbsrt Gilchrist, aged 15, fell fifteen feet and Is badly bruised. Ed ward Phetterplace Is bruised about the ribs and suffered several contusions. He was unconscious for a time. Walter Lynch, a 11-year-old boy, .subject heart attacks, fainted from the excite ment and a score of men and boys were badly bruised, but none seriously hurt. The collapse of the bleacher railing and the Injury of several persons distracted the attention of the crowd and Umpire Ehret fled to the club house. He re mained there until the mob had scat tered. As an aftermath of the affair. Manager Dugdale later In the day was handed a letter. Just received from President Lucas, announcing Ehret’s dismissal. The letter was here before the riot occurred. Jack Drennan, one time Portland outfielder, will succeed Ehret.—Seattle Post. Memphis, Tenn., Aug. 19.—Before a crowd that filled the enormously enlarged plant of the Memphis Baseball Association and overflowed onto the grounds, the Crackers and Hustlers clinched hero yesterday in a game that was to decide the leadership of the Southern League. And Atlanta won. with the assistance of the snappiest baseball seen In Memphis this year. Score 4 to 0. There was only ono thing to It. Atlanta Just naturally outplayed the local team at every Jcnown department of the game. The pitching of Castlcton, the Ground Rent Man, was marvellous Tho Mormon Southpaw has never been better this year and he hooked ’em over to the queen’s own taste. Four hits was the sum total—one each for Neighbors and Richards and a couple for "Nick" Carter. And with hits Into the crowd the easiest things on record not a Hustler could land one Into unreachable territory for more than a single bag. There was nothing wild about the Mormon either. He Juat put ’em over the plate and took a chance. Only twice did he give vent to four wide ones and six times he fanned opposing batters. He struck one batter and uncorked one wild pitch, but neither did anv. thing more than momentary damage. And as the scoro would Indicate neither those two bobbles nor anything else that happened allowed Mem phis to get a run. There was never much doubt In the minds of the Atlanta backeri but that the Crackers were going to win. They uncorked what looked like a scoring rally In the flfth and when that turned out to bo nothing but a false alarm they let loose In the sixth and scored a couple of runs. Winters walked and went to the third sack on Paskcrt’s two-bagger Into the crowd. Fox popped out but Jordan singled neatly and Winters nnd Paskert scored. Not satisfied without pulling off one of their seyenth-inning exhtbl- tlons, tho Crackers scored a couple more In tho next inning, bringing the score pp to what It was at tho finish—4 to,0. The Atlanta team fielded perfectly. Not a hobble of ahy description was made and the work. In the face of the rooting of that enormous crowd, was notable. The strain seemed to tell more on the Babblers and ono bad bobble by Babb had something to do with the scoring in the seventh. Stockdale pitched a fair game for the home team and was steady as a church; but ho gave up hits when they meant runs. In the flfth Inning Castro had the hard luck to get In front of una of Stockdale’s benders and drew a bad soak. He was forced to retlr* from the game arid Sid Smith went to short while Sweeney was called In to catch. Castrd was not seriously hurt and will doubtless be himself In a day or two.

SA TURD A Y’S GAME A TIE The Saturday gamo was a. Bad, sad disappointment to the goodly bunch of Cracker fans who turned out to sco the downfall of Manager John Malarkey and hla hope destroyers. The Crackers went slightly to pieces In the first Inning and a brace of errors and a couple of hits netted the Pretzels two runs. Then, the kind of baseball they played would do anybody’s heart good. They were on tho spot with the greatest game ever, and shut the Malarkeyltes out to tho end. Also they garnered one run in the second and gathered In another In the third, thus tying the score. That was about all for them and the game had to be called at the end of the sixth Inning In order to allow the Crackers to catch tho train for Memphis. If the lucky, famous seventh could have been plnyed, things might have looked different, but alas! there was no seventh, Saturday.

ARBUCKLE BROS., Ntw York City, IN THIS COLLECTION YOU WILL FIND ’MOST ANY OLD THING IN THE WAY OF BASEBALL DOPE "Smiling" John Malarkey'* smile drifted to a scowl, Saturday afternoon, when he made a wild pitch and let Becker score the tying run. In some way, Malarkey thought Catcher Sea baugh was responsible for the wild fling. Malarkey, therefore, went to "balling him out.” Or, anyhow, that la the way It looked from the pres. box. When the Senator, went tq their bench, Malarkey renewed hi. attack on Seabaugh. Seabaugh. who was onca a Chicago Cub, and who waa sent to tba minora by Frank Chance for a little inure seatuning, would not stand the .Sit Malarkey waa giving him, so ba tamed a little, too. AU during the game luna fl t re r * te t* “P ■ run ning fire of roasts for each other. BUI Dyer did not play hla usual po sition Saturday- afternoon, but h. was In the game at Memphis on Sunday, Just ths same. In some way, Friday, Dyer sprung a Charley horse which re fused to let him play Saturday. He seems to be in good condition now, however, and wUI probably play from now on. Sid Smith played third blue In fine style, Saturday afternoon. Sid did not make a single error, ullbough be had two extra hard chances. Neal Ball, the hard hitting Climbers’ short stopper, failed to make a hit Sat urday, although he tried hla beet to connect Russell Ford pitched big league bill after the first Inning. Ford was a little nervous In this round, and hla error Is accounted for by this fact. Ford fielded hla position In good style, how ever. He made four assists. Castro made a two-base hit In the fourth Inning, but It he bad run a Uttle faster, he could have made three bags on It with ease. Castro knocked the ball away over the' center fielder’s head, and just as Henline picked up the sphere In center, Castro was on sec ond. It would have been an easy three- bagger for George Paskert. The Cleveland News recently con tained a picture of Glen Lelbhardt, the famous Iron man of the Southern League, standing beside his mother. Llebhardt’s mother resides In Indian apolis, and she knows little or nothing of banebalL The Cleveland News has the following to any of Licbhardt: "Mrs. Licbhardt resides In Indian- spoils and Tuesday was her second big league game. She saw her first game Monday and also saw her boy. the Idol face with kisses and hugged her until she cried enough, he said, ’Well, moth er, how do you like big league base ball:’ "Smilingly she replied, ’It’s very nice, Glen, but tell me, dear, who won?*" to locate her, and time and again It was her smile of encouragement that spurred him on. "Glen lost no time In making his way to his mother’s side after the game was over. After he had smothered her of her hearb pitch for the first time. “Mrs. Llebhardt never attended a ball game even when her son was the star pitcher of the Southern League, Naturally she wan Interested In the fact that he was advancing In his chosen profession and her Joy knew no bounds when her Glen wan sold to the Cleveland American League team. "This year she has manifested In terest In alt of the American League games, and especially the ones in which her boy was one of the princi pals. For some time past she has wanted to see Glen pitch, and Sunday decided to make a trip to Cleveland to pay him a visit before the departed for the East.
