Our Old College Chum Joe Curtis Writes
About Ex-Southerners in Virginia League
OTTO’S BROTHER.
By JOSEPH R. CURTIS.
Norfolk, Vn, June 3.—There are a
number of former Southern League
player* In the Vlrglna State League
thla aeaeon.
Prominent among theae 1* Bob Wal
lace, the former Firecracker, who Is
now a member of the Richmond team.
On the Virginia League circuit the fans
call Wallace “Rone" for short, imply
ing thereby that Ills head Is almost
one solid piece.
Whatever may be said about the
thickness of the outfielder's cranium,
however, is not having any effect on
his batting eye. Bob Is the terror of
the league with his swat stick. Very
seldom Is a game played In which he
does not get at least one hit for extra
bases, and sometimes he gets two or
three. He Is leading his team both In
■watting and fielding, and the Rich
mond fans only fear that he will be
drafted at the end of the season. Ho
hasn't been here long enough to get
away with dumb work on the paths.
Then, there Isn't so much head work
In this league as In the Southern.
Charley Moss, a former Birmingham
shortstop under the regime of Frank
Haller, la now managing Portsmouth
In this league. Moss has a fair team
and Is making a capable manager.
Is fielding like a Wagner, and Is re
garded as one of the most dangerous
men In the league while at the bat
when the baaes are occupied. Char
ley's greatest weakness In the South
ern League was his hitting, and his
desire to play for the grandstand. He
has improved wonderfully In the for
mer and cut out the latter. He weighs
fifteen pounds more than when he was
a Baron, and with It has gained much
good humor. He has made good with
a rush at Portsmouth, and Is popular
ull around the circuit.
Long John Fox, n brother of Slim
Jim, who Atlanta fans wllj remember
us having won a game from Memphis
lust fall after the South Atlantic senson
closed. Is now a member of the Nor
folk team. He was sold to the “Crew,”
us Norfolk Is known, shortly after Ma
con secured the release of Dick Har
ley. John has worked In two games
here, winning both of them easily. He
has already become a great friend of
the fan*.
There are numerous other former
Southern League players In this
league. Most of them have mode good
and are regarded as stars here. Bob
Pender, for Instance, who was chased
off almost every team In the Southern
circuit some six or eight years ago, Is
a great favorite with the Norfolk fans,
Jack Grim, who has boen playing base,
ball since the boyhood days of Newt
Fisher, ‘ barley Frank and Ab Powell,
Is manager of the Lynchburg team, and
won a pennant for that city last fall.
But, say. If you want to hear them
talk about the “candy kid." Just ask
some of the old-time Norfolk fans If
they remember Billy Smith. Billy for
merly played with the Norfolk team,
and If they don’t remember anything
else about him, they will tell yoti about
his great black mustache. The Orouch
was a swatter In those days. There are
dents In the fence out at Lafayette
Park fo this day which they say Billy
put there with his bludgeon. His pi
ratlc bunch of whiskers scared all the
pitchers on this circuit “ory eyed,"
and the way that he swatted the ball,
they say, was a caution.
tMMMMMWMHUHMMMHI
NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS
BY PERCY H. WHITING.
Without pretending to knew the merit* or demerits of the
ease, we rise at this juncture to inquire how it happens that the
Nashville chib has agreed to transfer a game from Nashville to
New Orleans.
New Orleans pnpers are snickering at President .Kuhn, of
the Nashville club. They say that Charley Frank asked him to
transfer one game of the Decoration Day pair to New Orleans
and that Kuhn agreed.
Later, so the story appears in the New Orleans papers, Mr.
Kuhn changed his mind and wnntcd to play in Nashville, lie
took the matter up with President Kavannugh and the presi
dent told him that as the Nashville club had agreed to the
transfer it had to stand.
Now maybe this is all right hut if it is we want to know
■ how. it is.
And if it IS, what is to prevent Shreveport, Montgomery,
Little Rock and any other club which is not drawing up to pur
from transferring o lot of games to Now Orleans and thus
sweeping away with a rush the very rule which Atlanta and
Birmingham linvc fought for so long and so vigorously—to-wit,
that no games shall be transferred.
“ Everybody knows what it means to have games trans
ferred fo New Orleans. It gives every advantage to the Peli
cans and every disadvantage to the visiting teams. It means
that Frank’s team gets the advantage of more home games than
any other team in the league aud that his hunch has, therefore,
an easier row to hoe.
It took the league a half day of wrangling at the spriug
meeting to get through permission for Little lioek ami Shreve
port to transfer a total of six games.
Now what we want to know is—
AVIIAT RIGHT DID MANAGER FRANK AND PRESI
DENT KUHN HAVE TO TRANSFER THAT DECORATION
DAY GAMEt
Also, while we are asking questions we should not object
to knowing—
DO THE LEAGUE CLUBS INTEND TO KEEP UP THIS
GAME TRANSFERRING BUSINESS?
.We’ro listening,pals. Goon.

For a solemn fact It was a shame to
take that game away from Little Rock.
The poor, blighted Travelers weren't
hardly in the Baraca League class, ow.
owing to injuries and things like that,
Buchanan was sick all day and in no
shape to pitch. But It was Just a case
of “have to.” Neither of Mike Finn's
other pitchers—-he has three in all—
was In shape to do anything, so Buch
anan went In for the sacrifice.
Page was another who absolutely
got out of a sick bed to play. He has
been on the “punk list” ever since he
collided with Lee Garvin over In Birm.
Ingham and should not have played.
With the pitcher and the second
baseman sick and the captain and reg
ular catcher of the team something
over a thousand miles away, the result
was a complete demoralization.
And the Crackers. Well, they were
ripe to take on anything and felt a
little sheepish to be tackling anything
so easy as Little Rock. They would
have preferred the New York Nation
als or the Chicago Americans or some
thing elso loud and strenuous.
But having only Little Rock on hand
they Just took a little practice work
out and won 11 to 1.
The one run was more or less of a
gift.
But nobody begrudged It. The Trav
elers looked as though they needed en
couragement.
Rather the feature of the game were
the three home runs by the Atlanta
players. Jordan, Paskert and Fox each
made one.
Our old pal, ’’Chief* Zimmer, mana
ger of Little Rock’s Ill-fated team of
1906. umpired the game In a satisfac
tory manner.
It •wvm rather contemptible of Mem
phis to sneak tiff and bust the Sabbath
by booting Shreveport. Be It said to
the credit of the Pirates that they made
an aw fuf stagger at winning. They
carried the game ten Innings, but final
ly dropped It by a score of 6 to 4.
Montgomery dropped the only other
Sunday game, losing to New' Orleans
by a score of 1 to 0. Maxwell allowed
six hits, Guese only two.
Little Rock and New Orleans spilt
up this week between them in Atlanta.
Little Rock Is here until Wednesday’s
game Is over and the Pelicans finish
out’the week.
After the New Orleans series is over
Atlanta goes out on the road again, in
vading the West for the second time
this season.
This trip. Instead of making Memphis
the first stop, the Crackers pike clear
to Little Rock, having an open Sun
day left for that especial purpose. The
Atlanta team plays In TravelervilU?
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and
then Jumps on an "open” Thursday to
Shreveport, where It plays Friday,
Saturday and Sunday. Monday. Tues
day and Wednesday of the same week
Atlanta playe In New Orleans. Then
there la an off day for the Jump to
Memphis and three games there.
That ends the second Invasion of the
West by Atlanta.
After that follow the usual Intersec
tional hostilities.
First Nashville cornea to Ponce De
Leon for three games. Then the Crack
ers visit Birmingham and Nashville.
That brlng3 it up to July 3. At which
time the team comes home and plan

MAY CALL A MEETING
OF SOUTHERN LEAGUE
Special to The Georgian.
Nashville, Tenn., June 3.—It Is given
out here today that a meeting of the
Southern League magnates may be in
the future to consider the proposition
of Increasing the player limit to fifteen
and Increasing the salary limit.
“Red” Fisher, of Shreveport, Is push
ing the plan, and It Is said Billy Smith,
of Atlanta: Johnny Dobbs, of Nash
ville, and others probably favor It.
Billy Smith is said to have written
President Kavannugh about It.
The double-headers, together with
the growth of the league, are being
clulined as the reasons for the pro
posed Increase.
Nelson, the new pitcher from the
South Texas League, arrived Sunday.
Manager Dobbs hhs released Pitcher
John Fisher, whom he got from Indian
apolis.

Robert Baugh- president of the Birmingham Baseball As
sociation, is la Atlanta for the golf tournament mid he states
that the attack mads by Beecher and Phillips, of the Now Or
leans team, on Umpire Pfenuinger in Birmingham Saturday was
one of the most disgraceful that he has ever seen since he has
been connected with banebal I.
Mr. Bangh state* that, after the Birmingham players had
appeared to go to the bad in the second inning, they rallied
and in the eifpith tied the score. Phillips hit Drr.umt with a
pitched ball and Pfenninger sent him to first. That forced a
runner borne. This decision was protested agmnst by Phillips
and Beecher and the former lighted on “Vinegar” with his
spikes whilo the latter jostled him in the ribs.
The pair had to be hauled off the grounds by the police
and from that time forward the Pelicans delayed the game un
til it had to be oaUedmt the end of the ninth on account of
We trust that thfltcnse of Beecher and Phillips will he put
before the president Of the league for action. If it is, doubt
less they snll get action, all right.
Nasty piece of business in Charleston Saturday when
Jacksonville refused to play aud had ii game forfeited against
her. There la a fine of a hundred plunks or two in the South
ern for refnsiug to finish out a game when ordered lo do so
by the umpire and if there isn’t such a one in the Sally league
then there sure ought to be.
Little Rock seems just to have found out tiiat the state
ment that Smith could not release himself was absurd.
The day after the story was printed The Georgian said
that somebody seemed to be playing a joke on himself. And so
it proved.

In the most exciting game of the sea
son, Beck & Gregg defeated the Sun
Proof team Saturday by the score of
5 to 1.
The game was full of spectacular
plays, and both teams put up tine arti
cles of ball for amateurs. Old "Bill"
Garwood waa right there with his whip,
giving up only four scattered hits and
striking out ten men. Cunyer* pitched
a nice game also, giving up six hits and
striking out seven men.
The Beck & Gregg boys should have
had a shutout game; but a passed ball

could do.
Candler, the first man up for Beck &
Gregg, rapped nut a home run; and In
the fourth Inning, with two men on
bases, Adsms knocked out a home run.
scoring three runs. This cinched the
game. One more run was made In the
sixth Inning.

THE L08ER'8 SIDE.
On aSturday the Beck & Gregg
Hardware Company team defeated the
strong Sun Proof team In an Interest
ing and exciting game.
Both teams played fast ball In the
field, but neither Indulged In much hit
ting.
Cunyus and Garrard both pitched
swell ball and had It not been for sev
eral errors of Judgment on the part of
the Sun Proofs the score would have
been closer.
It Is the opinion of the Sun Proof
team that Garwood Is the hardest prop
osition they have been up aaglnst this
year.
Both teams were well represented by
rooters, and a great deal of enthusiasm
was manifested.
Both teams agree that It was the
hardest game they have played.
Next Saturday the Sun Proofs tackle
the renovated Southernt Railway team
and hot times are expected.

Immediately after the first contest,
the boys Jumped Into the second. Be
cause of Bully’s phenomenal pitching of
the first game, Manager Winn again
sent him to the tiring line. Callaway
was to do the flinging for the Elec
tricians, and as the Kutz team carried
him away, he had to be replaced by
McKinney, who fared little better. Um
pire Stiles was rendering all decisions.
