Baseball News
Cordele and Montezuma went four
teen innings Thursday, and the game
was called on account of darkness
with the score standing 2 and 2. An
error and a two-base hit by Swann
gave the visitors two runs in the
eighth, tieing the score. It was de
cidedly a pitchers’ battle between
Price and Stevens, with one not a whit
better than the other. Gillis’ one hand
catch against left-field fence set the
fans wild for a brief time.

If we didn’t win Thprsday's game
2 and 2 sounds better. Gave the Cor
dele fans a chance to do some gen
uine rooting at least, and gave the lo
cal aggregation a little more confi
dence in their playing ability.

Price hurled a great game Thurs
day and was entitled to win. His
teammates did their best to bring
things over for him, but Stevens for
Montezuma went equally as good
through the fourteen-inning battle and
received jam-up support.

Mize is one of the mainstays of the
Fitzgerald club. He got a home run
in the game with Dawson Thursday,
and is one of the best batters in the
circuit. i
* = -
Things were a bit uneaven between
Fitzgerald and Dawson Thursday. Mil
ligan was on the mound for Fitzy and
allowed only 4 hits, which is about
as few as Dawson usually gets in a
game. On the other hand Fox surren
dered twelve hits to Fitzgerald. Daw
son was allowed to score only in the
fifth inning and the score resulted 6 to
1, in favor of Milligan and his team
mates.

Gillis again brought favor to himself
with a sensational one-handed catcn
against the left field fence in the game
Thursday. His brilliant fielding has
idolized him with the bleachers, and
they cheer him at every opportunity.

Errots are costing the Cordele team
entirely too many runs, and Dbetter
work with the stick would help things
wonderfully. ‘

Cordele has a fair team all round
now, and to save us, can’t see how the
other clubs of the Big 4 take so many
from us by such narrow margins. ‘

Martin is a good umpire, and like all
other umps, he is not infallible. He
makes mistakes once in a while, and
this is confined largely to calling balls
and strikes. He has the nerve to back
up his decisions—the only method of
managing contentious, roughneck play
ers. To assume the authority of put
ting the “hot headed” ones out of the
‘game once in a while, might make
‘them have a little more respect for
the time and place. They seem to for
get sometimes that ladies are in hear
ing distance.
Cordele divided honors with Monte
zuma in Friday’s double header. Cor
dele copped the first with a score of
3 to 1, and Montezuma took the second
3 to 2. Hunt pitched both games for
the visitors and went fair, though the
locals secured nine bingles off him in
each game. There was brilliant field
ing on bhoth sides, the playing of Gillis
and Wooten proving single features for
Cordele. '

Friday. His two sensational stops of
hot grounders put the fans wide awake.

Fitzgerald won from Dawson Friday

Larissey on the mound and it was a

GERMANS CONTINUE TO
ATTACK VERDUN
Parris July, 12.—Although the battle
in Picardy, which has been raging
for ten days, is absorhing most of the
attention of the German commanders,
they were able today to revive the
struggle at Verdun, making some ad
vance there and delivering several
sharp local attacks in the Lorraine
and Vosages sections, probably to con
ceal the transfer of troops to the
Somme region.
Having maintained their grip on the
Thiaumont work, the Germans now
are trying to push forward their left
flank. Their artillery was busy all
day yasterday, all night and this
morning. Then the bombardment
ceased, making way for the infantry.
One columan sought to yvork its way
along the railroad which runs around
Hill 320 towards the eastern extrem
ity of Fleury village, but it melted
away before the French fire, as did
another column attacking Chapitre
wood.
1 BRITAIN IS WORRIED
ABOUT DEUTSCHLAND
London, July 12.—The Daily News
says the British government is dis
posed to take a very serious view
of the status of the German subma
rine Deutschland. The official opin
ion is said to be that under existing
circumstances a submarine cannot be
I,classe‘l as a merchant vessel at all.
“The American government faces a
new aund delicate problem, which adds
one more to the already numerous
points on which a decision after the
war will be imperative,” the News
continues. “Even if a submarine mer
chantmaa can prove herself to be
really vnarmed, the difficulties of
}supervising such a craft, even ix} har
‘bor, must be almost insuperable for
the iriendly neutral. If such a ves
sel cnose, it is fairly clear she might,
with the advantage <che possesses,
most grossly abuse the hospitality ex
tended to her.” ;
TOWN NEARLY WIPED OUT. ‘
Mobhile, Ala., July 12.—The Louis-‘
ville & Nashville railroad depot, sev-|
eral churches and a number of barns
and outhouses were demolished at
Theodore, Ala., in last week’s storm,
it was !earned here tonight. Theodore
is a small town in this (Mobile) coun
ty and first reports of the damages
which reached here today made it ap
pear that a tornado had struck there
today. No lives were lost as far as it
is known here.
ORPET CASE GOES
TO JURY SATURDAY
Waukegan, Wis., July 14.—Two
more summing up speeches remain to
be made by the attorneys in the trial
of William H. Orpet, University of
Wisconsin student, who is charged
with the murder by poison of Marian
Lamb=2:-t, Lake Forest High School
girl. The expectation now is that
the case will go to the jury on Satur
day evening. Ralph r. Potter of the
defense, spoke this afternoon and an
nounced that he would be followell
by James H. Wilkerson, who is aldo
for the defense. David R. Joslin f¢r
the state will close the arguments Hf
the lawyers.

AGRICULTURAL BILL.
Washington, D. C., July 14.—The ag
ricultural appropriatfon bill carrying
$24,000,000 and providing for federal
grain inspection, federal licensing of
cotton and grain warzhouse, and levy
ing a tax of two cents a pound on cot
ton for future delivery, was passed
by the senate today. The Lever cot
ton futures bill, declared unconstitu
tional because of a revenue produc
ing measure it did not originate in
the house, is included in the measure.
The bill as it passed the house was
slightly amended.
Passage of the agricultural bill
cleared the way for the big naval ap
propriation bill, which was taken up
late *oday and made the unfinished
business of the senate.
DODGE CROPS HURT.
Eastman, July 13.—1 t is feared that
on account of the rains of the past
two weeks that the crops of Dodge
county will be greatly damaged.
The creeks of Dodge county are way
above the normal mark and the roads
all over the county have been washed
so badly that it will take some time
to get them in shape so they will be
\as good as they were previous to the
recent rains.
Hones for a bumper crop in Dodge
for this year have been practically
dashad to earth becauze of the hold
that zrass now has upon them and the
ground being so wet that the crops will
be scorched by the sun.
GEORGIA HOUSE AND SENATE
REFUSE TO ATTACK WILSON
Atlanta, Ga., July 14.—The House
and Senate have made it plain that
they are going to attend to the legis
lative aftairs of the state of Georgia
and let tne war department in Wush-}
ington look after the matter of equip
ping the National Guard regiments at
Macon with the cots, uniforms, shoes
and other supplies they need.
TICK INFESTED CATTLE
BARRED FROM SOUTH
Washington, July 14.—Efforts of
Senators Underwood and Broussard
and other southern members to get
authorization for raising the cattle tick
ban so as to permit of the importation
into southern states of tick-infested
cattl®s from Mexico and Central Amer
ica were finally today blocked in the
senate.
When the agricultural appropria
tion bill was taken up, the senate, by
a vote of 31 to 27, struck from the
measure an amendment to lift the
quarantine below the southern quar
antine Line. Senator Underwood gave
notice that he would later move to
suspend the rules to make the amend
ment in order, but when he pressed
his motion it was defcated 44 to 18.
Senetcr Catron and Sheppard op
posed the amendment.
An amendment by Senator (atron
repealing a law which permits impor
tation of tick cattle in certain sec
tions of Texas was adorted by an over
whelming vote, ‘
