Little Football Material
At Clemson This Season
Clemson College, 8. C., Sept. 24.—Not
withstanding the foot that Clenmon ha*
more than six hundred students, football
materia! ia scarce this year, and Conch
Williams la In trouble. The freshman class
la smaller than usual, because the tipper
classes are so largo that there was leas
room for new students than usual. And,
too, the new men are not ao largo as us
ual.
Clemson baa no prep schools to draw
from, as most colleges have, because foot
ball Is not played In any South Carolina
prep school, with the exception of Welsh
Neck.
Only Derrick and Furtlck, of the well-
seasoned men, are back. Sykes Is one of
the heat men, but he ho*' not yet played
enough games to he classed ns a veteran.
McLatirln, Ellison, Mclver, Keasler, Gas
ton, Dickson and. Oelxer are all missing
from last year's team.
W. F. II. Johnson, one of the most prom
islug hacks Clemson had, has left col
lege. The whole team had been banking on
Johnson, and Ida going was a severe blow.
Conch Williams has already won tho re
gard of his men; he had the confidence and
respect fwfnre he came. Clemson has never
had a coach that was as highly thought
by everybody as Is C. It. Williams.
Clemson does not have a good team, It
will not be his fault. lie link Ills
practicing regularly.
All Clubs Except One Have
Signed Managers For 1907
Savannah, Ga., Sept 24.—With the excep
tion of Charleston, In the South Atlantic
League, all of the clubs have secured mana
gers for next year.
The managers for next season are:
Savannah—Wilson Matthews.
Jacksonville—Dominick Mullaney.
Augusta—Edward Ranslck.
Macon—Perry Lip*.
Colombia—Arthur Granville.
The annual meeting of the league direc
tors has not yst been held, although the
constitution provides that It shall be held
within ten days after the close of the play*
log season. President Boyer has naked for
an extension of tlmt that he mUbt be able
to get his records In shape to close the
business of the year.
There la a persistent rumor throughout
the lsaguo that Boyer will not be president
next year, and that he will accept the pres
idency of the Virginia Bute League. In
the event he does leave the South Atlantic
his successor will he chosen from some one
outside the league. At present there are no
prospective candidates for the position,
which pays $1,600 per year.
The season Just closed has been the most
successful since the organisation of the
league, the attendance In Knvununb averag
ing over 1,300 for tho entire season, or about
150 per day more than the two previous
years.
Jacksonville and Charleston both lost
money. It Is said, but this was largely due
to the experimenting that both clubs did,
signing over fifty men each during the
season. Tho salary limit was not lived up
to hy a single club In the circuit, juid the
public was treated to a class of ball that
many predict will gradually lend to the
disruption of the league. Inferior teams
will not he tolerated now and another sea
son ns expensive os the one Just over may
bankrupt the league.
AUTOMOBILE BUSINESS PROSPERS
The four hi, automobile centers of
the Middle South are Atlanta. Savan
nah. Nashville and New Orleans. Prob
ably more automobllea and better au
tomobiles are owned In (heso four cities
than In all the rest of the section put
together.
And not the least of the four Is At
lanta. Tho Capital City of Georgia has
long been known for Its Interest In
the horseless vehicles and at the pres-
ant time there ar§ perhaps 200 to ISO
In active service, though a greater
number than that arc licensed.
Nor are the machines of the city
mostly cheap runabouts and low-grade
touring cars, but, as a rule, they are
first-class machines and on unusually
large per cent are large, high-priced,
high-power touring cars.
Tho good roads In tho vicinity of At
lanta have done much to Increnso the
popularity of the motor cars and long
tours over wood roads are posslblo In
many directions from Atlanta.
The automobile business In the city
la In a healthy condition. Two compa
nies are now carrying the bulk of the
bvudnesa—the Atlanta Automobile Com
pany and the Capital City Automobile
Company. The former haa been estab
lished for soma time and la doing a
liffgo business. The latter la a new
concern, but It haa a large garage—
the old Poachtrce auditorium—and a
well-equipped repair shop.
The regular Reason for the automo
bile dealers !h practically over and soon
the new one will begin. Mont of the
up-to-date cars are already out with
their 1907 models and the others
follow rapidly. In fact, It will not he a
great while, in all probability, before
some 1907 models will be on the local
market.
It may be stated In passing that thus
far no very striking or novel changes
have appeared In the new models.
Changes are numerous enough, but
mainly In details and nothing radical
has yet appeared, or at least Its ap
pearance has not been recorded by
those thermometers of tho automobile
trade—the automobile magazines.
With an open winter there should be
plenty of good automohlllng In and
around Atlanta during tho next six
months, (’ape tops will come Into un
usual popularity soon and llimiostnc
bodies will appear on a few cars.
And next spring Atlanta people will
start off with a rush for the new cars
and the number owned In this city will
undoubtedly be Increased by a hundred
or two,
C. H. Johnson, of the executive com
mittee of the Capital City Automobile
Company, was cnlled to New York
by Mr. Stevens, of tho Stevens-Duryea
Company, and ho was Mr. Stevens
guest at the elimination race to select
team for the Vanderbilt cup.

The sailor met Tim McGrath, his old-time

The Trawick cup tournament, which was
started over the East Lake golf course of
the Atlanta Athletic Club Friday, was con
tinued Saturday. The preliminary rounds
were played for all cups. This round ad
vanced the play for the Trawick and sec

In the first division the matches of the
first round ended about ns might have been
expected and the winners were F. G. Byrd,
who meets W. P. Hill In the semi-finals,
and P. T. Afnrye, who plays W. J. TUson.
All the matches In the first division were
won by large margins, though both the
winners and the losers put up a good game.
The play In the second division wns very
close, as might have been expected from
the fact thnt seven of the eight who
qualified made scores In the preliminary
round which did not differ by more thnu
three strokes.
A few close matches resulted also In the
third division, and Ewell Gay was forced
to nlay the eighteenth hole to defeat It. A.
l’niluer. One match was so one-sided, how
ever, thnt It euded on the tenth hole, one
on the eleventh and one on the twelfth.

Score of Longest Ball Game
Ever Seen on Any Diamond
Here 1* the full Im*x score of the longest game of biiseltnll ever played, to-
getlier with the. telegraph story which was sent out at the time It wns played:
Devil* Like, N. Dak., July 18, 1901,—A twenty-five lulling 0 to 0 game was played
here today between the Fargo and Grand Forks team*.
Itnymer pitched for Fargo ami Gibb* handled the hide for Grand Fork*. The
captain of the Fargo team liecnuie greatly dissatisfied with the work of his first
baseman bemuse that luckless wight committed one error, lie railed I’nrumn lu
from right to cover the gateway bag, ami sent Lebn from the base to the field.
No man made more than two slips, which was pretty good in view of the fact that
the second basemen took advantage of thirty-three chauees, the third basemen of
twenty-two ami the shortstops of twenty. Twenty-five Fargo batsmen died at first.
IIow luauy Grand Fork* locust hitters did the same Is not shown by the score,
owing to the swap In positions between Fargo's first baseman and right fielder.
Forty-five outs went to the credit of the backstops, thirty-seven of which were
strikeouts. Nine men, counting both tenuis, made two hits or more. Four bat
ters did not rap safely even once.

CHICAGO BEAT GIANTS’ RECORD.
When the Chicago Nationals won Friday they boat the record set by Me-
Graw's Giants In 1904 of winning 106 games. This Is the best ever doms In the
National League. The per cent of the present Chicago team Is far from the rec
ord, however. The lieat ever done was In 1880 by the Chicago team under Anson,
which finished out the season with a peV cent or .798. No team since ISSb— when
124 games only were played—has lost ns few games its Chicago this year.
The record of the last thirty years, together with that of this year, follows:
