TO THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. SATURDAY, JUNE 8,1007 LOCAL BASEBALL AND GOLF DOINGS ARE OVER TODAY SPORTING PAGE EDITED By PERCY H. WHITING NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS TWO FAMOUS BALL PLAYERS Well, it certainly looks as though this present stay at home of the Atlanta team were going to end in a regular ‘'glnze” of “blory.” By the whisker-finish of Friday the Crackers put themselves still further in front and the Hustlers were kind enough to spill another. Win or lose today the Atlanta team starts for the West with a good lend. Of course there is no use in counting on holding that lead until the return to the red clay and glittering mica of 1’once De Leon. But. then, it might happen. The Atlanta team has proved itself able to win on the road and with every member of the team as fit as a fiddle it would not be utterly impossible for the Crackers to stay in front, even dur ing the second attack on the wild and wooly West. So they have made old Jim McGuire manager of the ill- fated Boston Americans. ■Here's wishing Jim the heat of good luck and may he take the curse off that ill-niur|rd aggregation. Three shut-outs in the Sally League Friday. That always was a liard-luck day anyhow. The “shut-ees” were Savannah, Columbia and Augusta. ( The golf tournament which ends today with the final mntches for the Southern championship cup and seven other trophies, haa been doubtless the most successful ever held by the Southern Golf Association. Up to the present writing everything hns gone off without a hitch. The field was larger than ever before and there were more good golfers. The mntches were closer all the way through than ever before and there was hardflghting for the gcorgeo'us array of trophies. The Athletic Club's boat house proved large enough for the accommodations of,the visitors and the home players made shift ailccessfully in the pavilion. The course, while rough and somewhat unfinished, proved satisfactory and the minor problems of things to eat, enddys enough to go around and the like were worked out to the satisfac tion of alost everybody. On the whole it was a good tournament nnd although Atlan ta players did not cop any of the major prizes still they made a good showing. And maybe the tournament will suggest one thing to local golfer enthusiasts—that there is need of bringing up some golf ers. The corking showing of the decidedly youthful Bobby Thatch, Jr., and the even better work of the two voting New Orleans men, Whitney nnd Eustis. may emphasize Atlanta’s need of some young players. With two or three notable exceptions, Atlanta’s old guard of golfers is down nnd out. If Atlanta is ever to win a championship she will have to develop some new players. LAST GAME OF SERIES TODAY, THEN TEAM HIKES WESTWARD Atlanta Bowling Team Wins From Railway and Electrics MIKE DONLIN The first series of three games In Jhe bowling match between the Georgia Railway and Electric Company's team and the Atlanta team, was rolletl last night on acorge W. Case's alleys. An unusually large number of local bowl ing fans were present and witnessed some good bowling. The Atlanta team won the first series by 40S pins. The Georgia Railway's bowlers are confident of overcoming the lend Tuesday night, however, when they roll on their home alleys. The Oeorgla Railway nnd Electric Company has a strong team and will prove to be a hard proposition. The teams nre composed of five men. and will bowl a series of . nine games. The next scries of three games will be rolled Tuesday night, and the final three on George W. Case's alleys the following Friday night. The score and members of the team are as follows: Atlanta.

The game la started fifteen mlnutea earlier than usual In order to allow the Peli cans plenty of time to catch the train for New Orleans. The New Orleans III”-up will be the same as Friday, excel,' >hat Frits will perform. Hilly Smith \ III probably uao Rube Zeller. Both teams leave tonight—New Or leans for home and the Crackers on the long hike to Little Rock. It Is the worst of bad trine to the Arkansas capital and It will be a tired crew which reaches the City of Roses for the opening of the western Invasion Monday afternoon. Was the ball Hid Hmlth hit between short ami third base In the ninth Inning of Friday's game thrown to first by Jnkey Ate or "Scrap Iron” Beecher? That Is the question which Is troubling fans who were present. Home say Beecher and some say At*. but the official scorer says Beecher threw the ball to Habrle. It would ho an Injustice to either Jakey or "Hcrap Iron" to charge the error wrong, but which ever one It happened to be—the funs want to thank him for the game. Gee! wouldn't It been a great deal better If Sidney had tore off a ripping single us of old, then the fans would not have hail the question of who the error ought to bo charged to. Minahan Heir to Enormous Fortune Cincinnati.

Some Information About the Balk Sporting Editor of The Georgian: (1) If a pitcher, before taking his position In the box, makes a motion toward third base as If to throw the ball and falls to throw It. does this con stitute a balk?

The Firecrackers turned the table* on the Pelicans Friday afternoon and won the second game of the serlee by a Garrison nlnth-Innlng finish, which turned the New Orleans players hair red and almost gave the three thousand people present the heart trouble. Score Atlanta 3. New Orleans 4. It would be hard to any wtrtch team made the real up-hill tight for the game, as neither club had the contest cinched until the last man was out In the last Inning. The Firecrackers and the Prllcrns both scored In the second Inning. The gnme was e corker from start to finish. Each team was fighting its beat to win. But the luck was with Atlanta and she won. 8pade pitched a good game, and a shade of luck turned the tide hla way. »■ That ninth Inning wind-up Thursday afternoon was a peach. With two down. Winters tripled to left. Sid Smith hit to third and on Beecher's error. Winters scored the winning run of the game. It was a great wind-up and the fans almost went wild. The Atlanta playcra played ball at all times. They not only tatted well, but they played aome sen sational ball In the field. By winning Thunday the Atlanta club lends the league race by three whole games over the Mentphll. Mem phis lost Thursday and Atlanta won and now the local* are leading the league Jty a healthy margin. 8abrie'a Home Run.

Nadeau aacrlflced him to second and At* doubted to left and the first sacker acored. Gatins hit to third and was out at first. Fox In trying to get At* - at third threw the ball to the bleachera aid Mr. At* acored. Atlanta tied the acore In a knot In the second, however. With one down. Castro singled and Dyer filed out to second. Spade then singled to center and Castro went to third. Becker sin gled to right and Castro counted \\- jn ters also singled to right and .s., a dl acored Atlanta's second run. ' The New Orleans club scored , ne i. the eighth and one In the sixih ( >n three hits and an error the local* .7 two more In the eighth therein tleln, the score In a knot again for the sec ond time of the game.

June 8.—No special fea tures outside of Llpe's home run In the sixth Inning enllved the third game of the series, and It fell along with the others Into the basket that Macon has carried for the last eight games. Like the day before, Columbia was outpoint. Macon kept up a running fire upon Schwenk, and hit him hard enough to punch out five tallies. Columbia came near scoring on two occasions, but a double play spoiled one chance and In the other Helm showed that he was able to cope with the enemy. Columbia's one error was a bad throw to first by Laity In an attempt to complete a double. A man scored on the mlscue. The other run* came from hard raps. Houston's hit went Into the right field fence. Kaniler can not explain the team's predicament. It has been playing a fair article of ball, but Is unable to hit a stride that will enable a win now and then. Nashville New Orleans 39 Birmingham. . . . .38 Montgomery 43 South Atlantic League.
