Mr. Crews, of Americus, you have entered the Hall of Fame—you have won a game for Americus. And Then Atlanta. Police Made Them Rub It Out. OUR MILL END SALE! It la rumored that dissipation is rife among the players and that managers allow their men too much freedom. Atlanta, Ga., May 21.—In order to celebrate their victory over the husky team from the University of Georgia, a big crowd of Tech boys paraded the streets Saturday night and wound up by painting, In letters and figures more than a foot high and In brilliant yellow paint, the following legend on the smooth new asphalt In front of the Atlanta terminal station: “Tech 3, Georgia 2.” Officer Ivy and Ptfllceman Doyle, to gether with Night Station Master Blount, followed the boys, got them cornered and forced them to return and "rub out” the offending sign. The boys had to buy some cloth and tur pentine to rid the asphalt of its glaring yellow lettering. Anyway, this much can be said, the Albany team is getting the reputation of playing clean ball wherever it goes. Three straights for Waycross from the Albany team alone. Is It strange that they stand at the head of the col umn? A little more ginger and head work are needed just at present. The men have a way of giving up if the other team gets In the lead. This property is rapidly en hancing in value and will be worth double present price in few years. Phone 8, B. Brown, President. a;w. Mnae, V,-President, J. P, Munnerlyn, Cashier, You Want It Quick.

Alexander has .been released and Snodgrass is now the manager. After Alexander was released Snod whs of fered the management and accepted. He Is an experienced baseball man and has a fine knowledge of the game. Also he is one of the best all around men In the league, both as a hitter and as a fielder., He has been making arrangements to strengthen the team already and while nothing definite can he given out now several new men will soon land in .Albany. The ap pointment of Snodgrass as manager has pleased the fans no littlb. AT VALDOSTA. Innings— 123 456 789—R. H. E.

Ten times they hit it, and ten times they ambled across the plate, digging their spikes in the inoffensive rubber with a malicious satisfaction. And only four hits could be gotten off Allen, another new pitcher that Buesse hqs picked up. Only once were we allowed to score—it was nearly a kalsomine. Eight times did Crosley’s team mates fall hack on him and embrace the er ror column. ^Was the score a surprise, when all the rest Is considered? “Outclassed,” you will hear on the street corners; but you can’t be so sure of that. Outplayed they were, but the Albany team is in their class. It was simply a question of lack of sup port. Isn’t there some remedy for this sort of thing? It is getting so common and It is what is sending the team down hill. Daily the error column is in a full condition. The Waycross team made two runs In the first, which was pretty bad, and in the second—Oh, horrors!—six more. It was hopeless after that. We made one measly one in the sixth, but that was nothing against the vows that the others piled up with an case that was heartbreaking. Allen, Waycross’s new pitcher from the South Atlantic, was there with the material, and he showed that he had come from a fast crowd. The support behind him was excellent. )Three dou ble plays were made by the Waycross team and the ginger was there all the time. Never mind, what wo will do for them these three days will be- enough. The, weak places on the team have been strengthened and the men know what they are up against. Three straights gone, but it must be remembered that we have been play ing the strongest teams. Not yet has the Americus bunch had a chance to fatten the Albany team’s percentage. And neither have we been up against Valdosta. Altogether the boys have played in hard luck. But the Jonah has departed and the club will now take the place in the percentage col umn that it deserves by right of merit to occupy. There is nb denying that there have been some weak, places, but these things are being straight ened out as quickly as possible. And remember, when you are knock ing, that you are only hurting yourself, that too much of it is very, very bad for you, that the franchise may unfold its wings and fly to another place, that Albany may be left in the cold, that you may not'have any more chances to let loose your views, so very, very valuable, on the subject of baseball, and that you may be pointed out as an AT COLUMBUS. Innings— 123 456 78—R. H. E. Columbus 020 030 03— 8 9 7 Cordele 100 002 04— 7 6 2 Batteries—Phelan and Harwood; Goodrich, Mercer and Cranston. Um pire Coniff. (Game called at end of eighth on account of darkness.) FAN-ATICS. Another drop! Lavender continues to hold his own. Wagnon, shortstop for Waycross, Isn’t so bad. All the teams are working six days in the’week. If ever the need of gatnes to be won was felt, it is now. Cordele will be heard from before the season is over. It’s early in the season yet, and the men can still climb out. “They say” that several other teams are after our Snodgrass. A little winning streak will queer the knockers in short order. Dissipation Is not so rife among the players as it might be supposed. Posey continues to have a lot of strike-out victims in each game. McCormack is as good a man with the stick as the league can show. If Tribble pitches the first game the series will be harder to win, that’B all, The support of the Albany people this week will have a lot to do with the team’s winning. The team do not relish the work of the anvil chorus a little bit. The siren voice of victory calls to Snodgrass’s men. Give heed, we en treat you, and suffer not “The Machin ists” to repeat their dread performance of the past. The two weakest teams in* the league are matched against each other now—Valdosta and Americus. Ameri cus ought to, and is beginning to, wear a blush of shame. A gfance’ at the number of hits in any of the scores of almost any of the games will show that the pitcher’s life in the Georgia State League is not a bed of roses by a little bit. Lavender wins whenever he pitches. Of course he can’t keep this up all summer, hut none the less his aver age is going to be a thing of envy to most of the other pitchers. ELECTION OF TEACHERS For the City Schools of Albany, June 6, 1906. Albany, Ga., May 19, 1906. The Board of Control of the City System of Public Schools will meet, at the court house on Wednesday, Juno 6, at 4 o’clock p. m., to fix salaries and elect the teachers, as follows: Superintendent of City Schools. Principal of High School. Two lady teachers for High School. Principal of Albany Academy. Bight lady teachers for Academy. A teacher in vocal music and draw ing. A teacher In manual training. A principal of Negro- School. Seven class teachers of Negro School. C. W. RAWSON, Mayor, 1,. B. WELCH, Chairman. Secretary. Posey got a three-bagger in his game with Waycross. The hoodoo has been on the team when he has done the pitching, and It Isn’t his fault that oth ers broke Into the error column. Dark oblivion be the portion of the past, the future Is ours, the baleful shadow of defeat is but a relic and the splendors of prospective conquests il lumine the path of the home club. ' Mr. Carlton Buesse, your future Is dark; but we will treat you hospitably —the same as you did us last week. Vengeance is the Albany baseball club’s today, tomorrow and the next day. The place hitter, who Is a rather rare thing In the Georgia State league, is more valuable than the three-base slugger, although his work Is not as highly appreciated by the baseball public. Cassidy has been released by Man ager Arthur Starr, of the Valdosta club. There will be several changes In the personnel of the team In the near fu ture. Cummings, who played center for Cordele, has been released at his own request. President Powell, of the Americus club, has signed a new outfielder— Yancey. If the men will only brace up and do what they can, it will be a glad time in Albany. There’s no use denying that the Waycross team, is as good as any in the league. We are up against the same crowd for three this week. It means plenty of hard work if we win.' It’s getting time, all over the circuit Baseball Albany Vs. Don’t think that we are afraid of you, Waycross athletes, but the emo tions, engendered by the events of the last three days of last week have put the team where it has a little respect for you. Plenty of work and very little play is the rule In this league. Sunday is the only day of rest that the players get. It is no wonder that they throw the ball away sometimes. It is hard to be “ginger” all the time. The Columbus team, when It left here, had a wicked' scheme, in which his umps Coniff was to play a leading part. Prompted by the decisions that he had made in the series here, they meant to throw him off the train when it should be miles distant from human habitation. How reprehensible and wicked of them' to thus plot against the well being of one so dear to all the players. Come ’round this evening and see how the other games in the Georgia State League came out.
