    THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. WEDNESDAY, MAY 22, 1907.
FANS AWAIT IMPATIENTLY FOR RETURN OF TEAM

NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS
"TACKS”LEAVES LEAGUE.
BY PERCY H. WHITING.
The first Western invasion is drawing to an end. And it is
with great pleasure we note that it hasn’t been the usual hor
ror for the Easterners.
Up to the time of going to press there have been no mur
ders, no arrests, no famine, no pestilence and not much trouble
along the banks of the purling Mississippi—and beyond that
murky stream.
And with the Western series nearly out of the way and the
Crackers almost ready to turn homeward for a good stay at
Ponce DeLeon, it looks more than ever as though Atlanta were
going to win the pennant.
Of course almost anything can happen to a team between
now and the middle of September. But bad luck is as likely
to befall the rest of them as it is Atlanta—end with good
luck the Crackers seem to have it over them all.
From Nashville comes the rumor that Texas is coming
back into the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association.
Probably this isn’t so, and certainly—on account of her geo
graphical situation—Texas had more excuse to go out than
any of the rest which have done so.
However, it is hoped that Texas will draw back in. The S.
I. A. A. is the one bi£ influence for pure athletics in the South
and any strength which can be added to it is desirable.
Well, after so long n time they are on the hunt for Sunday
ball in Memphis and threaten to put it out of business.
The writer’s views on this subject are not of any special in
terest, even to himself. But he does wish to recall just one in
cident of the last attack made on Sunday ball in the Bluff
City.
An organization of ministers started it and were in a fair
way to put the game out of business. Their cause was gaining
strength with great rapidity and all the reinforcements were
welcome—that is, until they found that the saloon keepers of
the city were lined up with them.
And that was a strange anomaly I The ministers and the
saloon keepers fighting side by side against Sunday baseball.
This set the ministers to thinking (or so the story goes any
way—I wouldn’t vouch for this personally) and after some
thought they objected to their sparring partners, dropped the
agitation and Sunday ball has gone on there ever since.
There may be no moral to this story. Anyway it goes un
pointed as far as the writer is concerned.
Thoso New York fans are fine losers. Chicago beat them
Tuesday and after the game the hoodlums piled on the field and
tried to soak the umpires. Luckily—and for a refreshing change
—the cops of the metropolis cut in the game in time to prevent
bloodshed.
And now Charley Frank rises to remark that he isn’t going
to protest those games with Atlanta.
Wise Charley. We thought he had far too much sense. No
man knows the rules (and how to dodge them) bettor than C.
Frank and it is a chilly day when you catch him napping.
Old Stars Win Last Game
From Marist College Team
The Marlat "Old Stars" defeated the
colies* rrsulara Tuesday afternoon In
the Anal same of the series. The play
was close and clever, but despite man
ly striving, and a final rally In the
ninth by the college team, the "Old
Star" experienced players won out.
After the game Father Ounn enter
tained victors and vanquished at an
Informal luncheon.
This "past and present" series has
been the event of the athletic year at
the college, and will doubtless become
a permanent number.

great favorite with the Uarlst boys
during his brief stay among them, was

Fentleld. Ga.. May 22.—In a very
exciting game of baseball here Satur
day Pontteld won from the ernck
Union Point teuni by the score of 25

the pitching of Hall for Penneld. who
struck out 18 of the Union Point buts-
men nnd allowed only three hits, and
would have acored a ahut-out had the
team behind him been In their usual
form. This 1s the first game played by

errors.

PELICANS WIN
CLOSE BATTLE
Special to The Georgian.
New Orleans. La., May 22.—If Big
Jack Rowan had had the support
which Atlanta pltrhers have learned to
expect, 'things might have been differ
ent down here yesterday, for the De
troit Dlscnrd let the Pelicans down
with two little hits and did not give
enough bases on balls to hurt much.
Fritz was pitching well, too, and
allowed only five hits. The result was
a single run by the Crackers. But that
run should have been enough to win.
Except for errors—but what's the use.
All teams make them, and the Crack
ers do not generally uncork enough to
hurt.

BILLY SMITH COMES HOME
TO PLAN GREAT OPENING
Conference to Determine on Festivities and
Formalities Connected With First
Game at New Park.
With Billy Smith, Mayor Joyner and
President Dickinson, of the local base
ball association, planning and schem
ing, there ought to be an opening of the
new Ponce DeLeon park which will go
down Into history as the biggest thing
on record.
Tuesday afternoon President Dickin
son sent a hurry call to Billy Smith to
hike himself to Atlanta to talk over this
opening business.
And forthwith Billy came.
Until the conference Is over, there Is
no telling what will be done, but there
are likely to be bands, a parade and all
the usual and some unusual stunts
The local association has the
park In the South, and they want
open It In a fitting manner. 1 19
Just what they will consider as
they will announce later. ’ n *
To Shreveport goes the honor of
opening the park with the Crackers ins
that the Fishermen can do the thtaS

It Is likely that the first game at th.
new park will be called at 4 o'clock
though this matter also will be decided

contained an extensive Illustrated

To Sporting Editor of Georgian:
wlah to correct a statement made
in your paper of May 21 by Mr. Car
lyle Hall. In regard to the Covenanter
League. Mr. Hall, In giving the stand
ing of the clubs in yesterday's paper,
shows the Decatur Covenanters and
the Inman Park Covenanters to be tied
for first place. He also shows that
the Pryor Street Covenanters havo
played a game and lost It, which puts
us on the bottom, with a percentage
of .000. This is not correct, neither
the Pryor.Street nor the Decatur Cove,
nanters have played a single league
game this season. (Inly one guine
has been played, and that was between
the North Avenue Covenanters and the
Inman Park Covenanters. North Ave
nue lost the name, and that put the
Inman Park Covenanters In the lead,
with a percentage of 1.000.
The correct standing Is ns follows:
Played. Won. Lost. P. C.
Inman Park.... 1 1 ft 1.000
North Avenue ... 1 0 t .000
Pryor Sired .... 0 ft ft .000
Decatur 0 0 0 .000
The second league game will be
played Friday. May 24. by the Pryor
Street Covenanters and the North Ave
nue Covenanters. The gnme Is to be
played on the North Avenue grounds,
and Is to be called at 3:30 o'clock. The

second five games of the tournament
between the two-men teama represent
ing the cities of Chicago. Cleveland
and Atlanta were rolled. They result
ed In total scores as follows:
Eagan and Elliott, Atlanta 1,863
Hobe and Irving, Chicago 1,643
Shafer and Kulow, Cleveland ....1,516
The New York team did not par
ticipate, as one of the men compos
ing the team was absent from the
city. By consent of the other teams,
the New York team will be permitted
to roll Its five games before the final
games of the tournament, so that the
contest may be finished with the final
five games to be rolled next Tuesday
night. '
The Atlanta team continues In tha
lead, having last night Increased tha
lead It obtained in the first five games
It will be difficult now for the other
teams to overcome the handicap
against them, but they may succeed
in making the finish close and exrlt-

places In the race.
Elliott led the scores of the evening
with an average of 200, and also rolled
the highest Individual game, which was
220. The Interest has been great In
this tournament and other contests will
no doubt grow out of the friendly ri
valry thus created.

In speaking of the work done by the

"The chances In the football rules for
the coming season were adopted by the
Intercollegiate Football Rules Commit
tee today. The first rule provides that
In the cose of a forward pass the play
ers must bs at least a yard back from
the line when the play Is begun. This
rule was adopted to remove the ambi
guity of the old rule as to whether the
players were on the end of the scrim,
mage line or behind the line.
“The other rule provides that a for.
ward roes crossing the goal line on the
bound or rolling, whether before or
after being legally touched, shall count
as a touchback to the defenders of.th*
goal. '
"Tho name of the new official pro.
vlded for at the last meeting has been

of various football matters. Including
the appointment of and Jurisdiction
over officials, uniform fees and uniform
action on other matters."
