FOOTBALL TEAMS ARE ALL WORKING HARD THESE DAYS
i EDITED BY
IP. H.WHITING
I NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS
Now and then we get a communication that amusea us. We
like something snappy, especially if the writer calls us names.
So we are giving space to an effort by 0. B. Keeler, whoever
he is (for he does not figure in the directory). What Mr. Keeler
has to say follows:
Atlanta, On.. Oct. It, 1907.
Percy H. Whiting, Esq., Sporting Editor Georgian.
Sir: Possibly It may Interest you to learn how your atti
tude on the world's series, as expressed In yesterday’s Georgian,
Is regarded by a portion of those who follow your accounts of
this and similar events. At any rate, I am going to try to give
you my own sentiments and those of a number of Interested
fans who were discussing your page yesterday. The man up
the tree can sometimes see both sides of a question like this se
ries, In spite of the fact that all the sporting writers In Atlanta
have kept the mighty Cobb, the crafty Jennings, and the ag
gressive Tigers so much In the public eye that the Cubs (from
this locality) appeared only as a cloud the also of a man’s band
upon the far horizon.
Now, then. In plain sporting parlance, your dope gave you
the double-cross, and you have quit cold. And this Includes, to
a somewhat less extent, the other sporting writers of this town,
who have been filling their respective sheets with hysterical
clamor concerning the Incomparable Tigers, the scintillating
brilliance of their achievements, their unparalleled aggressive
ness, and other fatuous platitudes equally wearying to a student
of the game.
And what is the manner of your quitting? The game, phil
osophical admission of an overwhelming defeat? Not exactly.
Instead, you roast Chicago (apropos of what?) as a bum base
ball town compared with Atlanta—heaven save the mark—Ty
Cobb for being a crying disappointment, and both teams for
playing what you are pleased to call a really poor class of ball
—the peevish vaporings of trounced childhood.
You conclude your remarkable "views” with the assevera
tion that ’’whether they (the Tigers) are off-edge, or whether
they are outclassed, or what It Is, we don't know.” You don't
know, Mr. P. H. Whiting? Thon It appears to me the sporting
pBge of The Georgian should shortly sport the name of a new
editor. There are about five million fans, besides women and
children, can tell you that today. A good many writers were
trying to tell you a whole week ago, but you—et. al—had a
Cobb In your ear and stripes in your eye. Now that you seem
to have got over your superstitious reverence for the powers
of tho batting phenomenon r.nd the value of "nerve" and "ag
gressiveness,” one would think you might solve the problem.
It Is clear enough. The Chicago team absolutely outclassed
the Detroit aggregation in practically every department qf the
team and of the game. It would be Insult upon Injury to insti
tute a comparison between KHng and tho Detroit backstops, and
nearly as bad similarly to discuss the relative merits of tho two
pitching staffs. On the bases, the record of the series admits of
no misconstruction, and at the bat Chance's men have demon
strated as it has rarely been demonstrated before the clear su
periority of well-balanced, steady hitting over tho freakish, sen
sational work of the ono and two-star variety. But above all de
tails there stands out, bold and distinct, the vast superiority of
Chance's exquisitely finished baseball machine over the dashing
aggressiveness and unquestioned nerve of Jennings’ combina
tion. .
Put this in your dope pipe, Mr. P. H. Whiting, pack it down
well, and pull hard upon It until next season: Mere aggressive
ness and nerve, even when coupled with n brace of brilliant hit
ters and dashing field work, will never take a world's series
from a team combining the mechanical perfection, consistent
hinting and Inside knowledge of the present national champions.
Jennings is a talented, able manager, and he han a lively, hard
working, hard hitting team, with several great—and one or two
near-great—players on It But It Is not a great team. Tho Na
tional Champions of 1907 have attained more nearly than ever
before to tho perfection of organization that glows with a bril
liant personality of detail, yet is united In a finished mechanism
that can produce, day after day, week after week, the highest
quality of our notional game.
And that's the answer.
Now as to Cobb. After lauding him In the most extrava
gant terms for weoks, finally doping It out that hp had the whole
Chicago team scared to death, and touting him to win the
championship single-handed, you give him tho G. B. In bis ex
tremity and hold him up to the eyes of his admirers as “the
most crying disappointment of the Detroiters”—and tho series
perhaps not half over. And why? Tyrus Cobb has made a
phenomenal record for a whole season, and he has been, in a
manner of speaking, "killed with kindness.” That his youth
and Inexperience, taken with a sense of the tromendous respon
sibility thrust upon him by his too-ardent admirers, should
prove too great a handicap when facing the pitching of mas
ters like Overall, Pfelster and Kculbach, Is surely not surpass
ing belief. Was It not rather to be expected, and due allowance
made for a slump In two or threo games? While I consider
Cobb to be a somewhat overrated batsman, he surely deserves
great credit for his work with Detroit this year, and, when he
falls down, this record certainly entitles him to Immunity from
the Ill-judged "slings and arrows” of outrageous sporting writ
ers, who blow hot and cold with every passing minute.
Study the game, Mr. Whiting, and always remember this—
Class counts!
Yours, etc.,
O. B. KEELER.
809 Fourth National Bank Building.
We “like that fine,” old sleuth, especially the pnrt about the
Cubs having “attained a perfection that glows (sic) with a per
sonality of detail.” We suspect that you got that part out of the
dictionary with a scoop and mixed with a spoon.
But as you say, that is undoubtedly the answer.
Dear Bo, it may not have occurred to you that we kept Ty
Cobb in the limelight because he was a Georgia boy. Hans Wag
ner, who led the batters in tho National League, may be a greater
player, but who oares n hang} Not we. For he wasn’t born down
in the Red Clay belt..
And don’t think for a second that Atlanta is the only town
which has slighted the Cubs. Nobody outside Chicago and New
York paid Hiiy attention to them until the world’s series. Which
only goes to show that people are interested in a close race and not
in high class baseball.
As to the class of ball played—well, we didn’t see any of the
games and neither, we judge, did you. But all the candid writers
who did sec them put them down as a bad lot and state that the
baseball was—in spots—very much “to the bushes” in every
game.
If Cobb is an overrated batsman, then how did it happen that
he led the American League in batting}
And lastly, if “class counts,” and generally it does—how
does it happen that the Cubs, with practically the team they had
last fall, won from the Tigers, while they were outrageously wal
loped a year ago by the Sox f
Remember the Sox, bo. They are the people who put the
dope to the bad and proved quite conclusively that class does not
always count.

BILL KIRK’S COLUMN
CONSOLATION.
By WILLIAM F. KIRK.
"There, little girl, don't cry.
They have broken your doll, I know."
—Gene Field.
There, little Griff, don't cry.
You are out of the race. I know.
Your pitchers weakened at critical times,
Your catchers caught like a pair of limes.
Your boys hit hard—they surely did hit—
But most of the time when a hit meant nit.
Your base-runners frolicked around the bags
Like large, fat turtles, or hamstrung stags,
But you'll cop a pennant by and by—
There, little Griff, don't cry.
There, little Mac, don't cry.
Your Giants fell down, I know,
And the wildest fan, even Louis Mann,
Won't concede them better than show.
Your big star twirler, Matty the Great.
Fell down so hard that ho broke his slate!
Your catchers were hurt, your fielders were slow,
And you don't win now, as long ago.
The Cubs are the candy children now,
And lines of pain encase your thoughtful brow,,
But this terrible season wlli soon pass by—
There, little Mac, don’t cry.
TACKLE PROBLEM IS STILL
WORRYING COACH HEISMAN
Commodores Pass Through
On Way Back to Nashville
The Vanderbilt football team passed
through Atlanta Monday night on Its way
from Annapolta to Nashville.
Grantland Bice, sporting editor of the
Nashville Tennessean, who saw tho game
with the Navy last Saturday, said of the
This snappy football weather Is just
the thing for the Tech football team
and the work on Tech field these after
noons borders so closely on something
fierce that you couldn’t tell It from the
real thing.
Now that the entrance examination
period Is over the members of the team
can settle down to hard football, and
Coach Helsman can tell about what
he has in the way of material.
The only "possibility" who failed to
get In was big C'ofer, the army player,
who was turned down by the examin
ers. It Is rumored among the alumni
that Cofer was given “the sack,” wheth
er or no. Just on general principles- and
to prevent talk. But this Is probably
an error.
All the rest of the men who went
against the alarming Tech entrance
exams went through with flying colors,
and Coach Helsman Is now earnestly
preparing to put a team In the field
that will hold the mighty bunch from
Knoxville, Tennessee, on Saturday.
The matter of turning out a pair of
good tnckles Is worrying Coach Ueis.
mnn. It Is reported that the coach took
Luck, Dnvls, C. Brown and Johnson
aside and told them confidently that lie
fully expected to get a pair of good
tackles out of the bunch but that Just
at present there was not one of them
worth floor space In a ten-acre lot—or
words to that effect.
That was before Sims, of Dqhlonega,
arrived. This man Is a star all right
and will be used somewhere. In Sat
urday's game he was run. In for a few
minutes as a tackle. However, he may
possibly go behind the line.
Any way you take It Tech 1s pretti-
sure to have a good stout polr of
tackles, but right now the competition
for the places Is fierce In the extreme.
There Is no certainty about any of
the other positions, and every man on
the squadls working to the limit to get
or hold a Job.
As Tennessee Is coming down here
with a strong team, there Is going to
be a world of hustling done between
now and the first esr-splerclng effort of
the referee's whistle Saturday after
noon.

MAN WHO PLAYED WITH VANDY
WRITES VIVIDLY OF NAVY GAME
John Craig, The Georgian's Van
derbilt correspent, has written
the following critical analysis of
the Vanderbllt-Navy game, which
contest will go down to history as
ono of the greatest ever played by
a Southern team. No story of that
mervelous contest previously pub
lished has really shown how thor
oughly the Navy was beaten and In
what a contemptible manner the
contest waa taken from the South
erners.
By JOHN L. CRAIG.
Vanderbilt 5, United States Naval
Academy (, was the result of the some
what erratic game played on the Mid
shipmen's field Saturday.
The Marine Band of forty pieces fur
nished music of such quality that It
brought responsive sympathy from
players and spectators.
During the early part of the gams
Valderbllt seemed to be somewhat stiff
from her long ride, two nights on a
tourists' sleeper, and lack of practice.
In addition when the Commodores ar
rived In Annapolis rain waa falling and
a raw wind blew In across the bay,
which chilled the Tennesseans to the
bone.
It seemed Impossible for the Commo
dores to get warm. All during the
Saturday forenoon groups of the boys
In Southland clothing und without
overcoats stood shivering about the
campus. 8tlff signal practice was had
when the Commodores raced on the
field at 2:15 Saturday afternoon,
hundred or more midshipmen In foot
ball uniform presented quite a big con.
trast to the little group of Southern
ers who had journeyed all the way from
Nashville to give the Navy team
touch of genuine high life.
The magnificence of the surround
ing buildings and campus, the fierce
yelling of the Navy enthusiasts, and
the small army of midshipmen In foot
ball uniform, all of which gave strik
ing evidence of the tremendous oppo
sition, did not dampen the ardor of the
Dixie boys, but seemed to make them
all the more determined and conscious
of their biasing opportunity.
Captain Douglass won the toss and
chose to defend the west goal, with a
heavy nor’wester at his back. Bob
Blake kicked to the Navy's ten-yard
line and the cadet was tackled after a
ten-yard return. The Navy twice tried
the line with the redoubtable Captain
Douglass, who came back to his team
mates and reported "nothing doing.”
Douglass then pulled off a magnifi
cent punt which the high wind carried
over Cotton's head. The ball took a
high bound In an unexpected direction
and was covered by the Navy. One
trial resulted In a gain of two yards,
when the Navy returned It to Coeten,
who returned to the 20-yard line. Aft
er Craig had made a gain of 5 yards
Bob Blake forward passed the ball to
Vaughan Blake, who, after gaining 15
yards with a clear field ahead, dropped
the ball and the Navy recovered It.
The Navy gained 6 yards In two at-
penullsed 15 yards for alleged hold
ing, giving the Navy first down. The
Navy, on two nttempts, gained lees
than the required distance of 10 yards,
when the umpire again penalised the
Dixie boys 15 yards for holding, plac
ing the ball on Vanderbilt's five-yard
line. On two attempts the Navy gain
ed two yards, when the umpire ob
ligingly butted In and penalized the
Commodores half the distance to the
goal line for alleged off-side. The ball
was then bucked >one yard and a half
for a touchdown, when Douglass kick
ed goal.
The score stood 6 to 0 In favor of the
Navy after six minutes of play.
Vanderbilt then received the kick
off and the most evenly and bitterly
contested part of the game followed
during the remainder of the first half.
The Commodores becoming thor
oughly warmed up. executed their plays
with abandon and dash that frequent
ly brought the spectator* to their feet
and frequent gains by both Craig and
Campbell over tackle, by Morton
ther away than the umplr,e, he clearly
saw that the ball had been touched
within, bounds. The Navy held, and
Douglass punted. Again the Vanderbilt
backs carried the ball reslstlessly tO'
ward the Navy'* goal. The Southern
ers were playing In splendid form. Her
Interference formed quickly, her for'
wards crouched low and charged fierce
ly, nnd the backs, running low and
hard, fought the ball yard by yard. The
Navy played fiercely and stubbornly on
the defense, and the Jerseys of the Van
derbilt backs were frequently torn from
their bodies. A beautiful forward pass
waa then executed to Vanderbilt’s left
end, which netted 20 yards. After
trial at the line the Commodores again
forward passed to Vai
brilliantly dodged the
who were playing the bark field, and
planted the ball behind the opponents’
goal post. Captain Blake kicked the
goal. With six minutes left to play,
Vanderbilt came back more fiercely
through the line nnd by Costen and | than ever. The ball was straightway
both Blakes at the ends brought groans carried to the center of the field by B.
from the grandstand. Costen and i Blake, Morton. Costen, Campbell and
Craig, when B. Blake was forced to
punt. Lange, behind three forwards In
the Interference, was brilliantly return
ing the ball, when Campbell, splitting
the Interference like pic crust, nailed
Lange In the most spectacular tackle of
the day. The Navy gained 11 yards on
a forward pass, and Immediately tried
another, which Stone, after a magnifi
cent leap In the air, secured and re
turned 5 yards. Vanderbilt Immediate
ly began to work the ball to the Navy's
goal. B. Blake secured the ball for a
15-yard gain on a quarterback kick.
Morton gained 4 yards and Campbell 15,
and a touchdown seemed Inevitable,
when It suddenly occurred to the um
pire that he had seen Stone use Ills
hands upon the quarterback kick, sev
eral plays previous, on which B. Blake
had gained 15 yards. The umpire evi
dently overlooked the provision In tho
rules, which allows a man to use his
hands at jerking an opponent out of the
road on a kick. It was further his duty
Captain Blake worked the double pass
for a brilliant gain of 30 yards, only to
be called back by the referee, who
claimed that two forward pastes had
been used. The play was evidently
new to the referee, for the first pass
was clearly backward by a yard, and
the Navy coachers admitted this fact,
though too late to cause a change In
the referee's decision.
During this first half Vanderbilt was
penalised 711-2 yards.
It Is seen that the Navy's touchdown
was the result of three things—a long
high punt over Costen’s head; a fum
ble by Vaughn Blake, and numerous
penalties.
Vanderbilt received the kickoff at the
opening of the second half, and began
operations with a spirit not to be de
nied. Craig and Campbell conslstently
tore off five yards at the supposedly
Invulnerable Navy tackles. Captain
Blake and Morton gave variety to the
attack by making steady gains around: t0 blow the whistle when the foul. If

fumbled It, and It rolled out of bounds,
w here he fell on It. The umpire Insist
ed that the ball had gone out of bounds
on the fly, though everybody on the
side-lines could clearly see that Blake
had received the ball 15 feet within
the field. The referee reversed the um-
of 11 yards on a forward pass, while
the Commodores advanced the ball 145
yards.
The work of the umpire in the game
was very unsatisfactory to Vanderbilt.
He evidently was Inexperienced. He
called penalties for alleged fouls, sev

and was reversed by the referee upon
