THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY, JUNE 17,1907. NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS After pulling- through a hard week on the road the Crack- era opened the last week of the Western trip with a nice victo ry. Memphis won too, bnt Atlanta has a strangle-hold on the lead and is still in front. The way the Babblers are holding on, though, ’is moat nerve-wearing. Don't overlook one thing during the next week. The Crack ers have been playing second division teams thus far through the West. Of course Little Rock and Shreveport are undoubtedly stronger than at least one team which finished in the first di vision last year, but for all that they ure disorganized and de moralized now. This is not said to belittle in any way the marvelously good showing made by the Crackers. This is just a gentle reminder that during the present week Atlanta goes against the two teams which are now occupying second and third places in the league race. Of course it is highly probable that Atlanta may win a ma jority of these games. But don't be discouraged if they don't. Beating the Peli cans in New Orleans and the Babblers on their own “turtle- back” are strenuous propositions and if the Crackers don’t ac complish it, it is no sign that they are not going to win the pen nant. Memphis won Istth Saturday and Sunday’s games. Stock- dale handed it to the Pretzels Saturday and Crystall did the same thing Sunday—scores 4-2. and .‘1-2. The Barons tackle Babb’s team Monday. Tuesday and Wed nesday of this week. Here is hoping that the only friends At lanta has in the league will do us a good turn and win a couple of those games. Down in Pelicanville the Crackers will do their best to win three straight games but will be very well satisfied with two out of throe. Unless memory-fails it was during Atlanta's second trip to New Orleans last year that the Crackers were lucky to escape with their lives. Let's hope that things break better this trip. ' The Barons certainly h.\mlcd it to C. Frank Sunday, beating him a double header. Tin- first game was a shut-out and the second went to the Barons 4 to 1. However, the Dutchman’s team won both games of Satur day’s double header from Vaughn so il was an even split. Any Eastern team that gets that in New Orleans does well. Philadelphia hatted Liebbardt out of the box Saturday. However, such things happen to the best of them now and then. And surely “Dutchy” is in that class. Raymond’s Return Will Strengthen Charleston Special to The Georgian. Charleston, 8. C., June* 17.—The Charleston baseball team has missed "Bugs” Raymonds since he has been In Chicago. The team has been play ing Indifferent hall, but has not fallen down much In the percentage column. There Is Joy In the camp of Matthews, however, because Raymond Is expected for tomorrow’s game with Ha van nail. He has wired ”!t Is a boy,” and of course expects to pitch better ball than ever now. Raftery, Meuny, Johnson. Ever* and Relslnger continue to lead the Sea Gulls In batting, the first - named batter being In the .300 class. Finn Puts Over Several Deals Little Rock, Ark., June 17.—Manager Mike Finn, of Little Rock has an nounced that he has sold Pitcher Buch. anan to Oklahoma Pity In the Western Association and that Pitcher Wheeler and Catcher Kunkle had been sold to Columbus. In the Cotton States League. Woods, the new catcher secured by Finn a few days ago, has been appoint ed field captain. AUTO WENT FAST. BUT BROKE NO SPEED LAW8 Probably the fastest time made In the shipment of any automobiles was a Pope-Toledo which was shtp|>ed from the Pope Motor Car Co.. Toledo, Ohio, to Cassius F. Raker, Atlanta, Ga. The car left the factory May So for Cincinnati, where It was switched and aent to Atlanta. The car arrived at Atlanta May 27, Just about two weeks ahead of time. The distance between Toledo and Atlanta ta about 700 miles. Paige and Mills, new catchers, have not done much Imttlng. Raymond has swatted only .109. Charleston continues to hold the rec ord for errors In the league, and the following figures of runs, hits and rors Inclusive of Thursday’s games of Interest: Clubs. H. If.

Ga., June 17.—Douglas de feated ltroxton on the lntter’s diamond by a score of 21 to 7. The game was long and devoid of brilliant plays. Braxton was simply outolussed by the locals. The Douglas team now stands open to challenges. Address same to W. V. Roberts, manuger baseball toum, Doug las. Ga. SWEETGUM8 WON. Lawrencevtlle, Ga, June 17.—Sweet- gum and Norcross played here last Sat urday on the latter’s diamond. The game resulted in a score of 16 to 5 for the Sweetgums.

CHAMPION PIE EATER OF WORLD PITCHES TODAY AGAINST PELICANS NOTES OF THE GAMES Special to The Georgian. JCew Orleans, June 17,—The local Pel icans will probably be called on today to face "Rube” Zeller, Atlanta's star plteber. The ('rurkfru arrived In the city from Shreveport this morning, and the most direct news that could be obtained from Billy Smith waa that the cham pion pie-eater of Georgta—which Is virtually of the whole world to their own way of thinking—would twirl the elusive sphere In the opening game. Against the big Reuben old Bill Phil lips will doubtless make his first ap pearance of the laat eight days. Should the managers change their minds they have these reserves to fall back on: Atlanta—Castleton and Spade; New Orleans, Frits. The, weather Is good.

Shreveport, I^a., June 17.—It seemed more or less of a shame to do it, but Atlanta certainly handed a couple of bundles to the Shreveport team at the close of the Trackers’ visit to this burg. On Saturday the Tracker* Just nat urally punptured "Red” Fisher's deliv ery and won 8 to 1. On Sunday they handed the same Identical package to nsklll, the man who Is giving Rube Zeller the harde*t fight In the race for first pitching honors of the league. Saturday's game was a loud shriek. The Pirates pulled off six errors and gave an exhibition of "how baseball should not be played" that has seldom been equuled on a local diamond. While all this was going on, the At lanta team played errorless ball and Castleton was putting ’em over In his usual efficient style. Henson, of Oska- loosa, Iowa (pipe that name), made his debut In Saturday’s game and made the usual "favorable Impression.” Sunday's game was a double and twisted cinch for the Trackers at all times, In spite of the fact that Gas- kill, supposed to be the best pitcher In the league next to Zeller, was In the box. He lasted a while, but his stom ach turned at his support, or the de cisions. or something, arid he left pre cipitately and made way for Llttld Hickman. This dlmlutlve twlrler fin ished out a good game, hut It was all the had before he started. The Shreveport players kicked a lot at the decisions, but not much atten tion was paid to this. Umpire Rudder- ham’s eye may have been a bit off, but for all that he Is known to be strictly on the square and the best umps In the league.

For he certainly has the material all there. Ford’s many friends in Atlanta were glad to see him do well against Shreve port. No fan could see this chap pitch without being Impressed favorably. He handles himself like a pitcher, ha* a good head and world* of steam. Rome way he has not been effective this year but everybody who know* him wants to see him make good.

The race for The Georgian’s pennant In the Commercial League took on a familiar aspect after the close of the games Saturday for the Beck and Gregg team won from the M. Kutx team and Is again in the lead. This rattling aggregation of ball players won handily from the Kutx team and It will take fast work to beat them out of the pennant. The other games turned out about as expected. The Southern State a Electric Company and the Sun Proofs on In handy style. More extensive write-ups of the gumes follow: BECK A GREGG WINS. The Beck & Gregg baseball team de feated the M. Kutx team Saturday aft ernoon at College Park and Is leading The Georgian’s Commercial League. The score of the game was, Beck & Gregg 7, M. Kutx 4. The two teams played great ball for amateurs, and both showed up In good style. Garwood, of Beck & Gregg, and Lamina, of M.. Kutx, both pitched good ball, the former giving up only two hit*. Only one hit had been secured off Garwood up to the ninth inning, when Lamina, of the M. Kutx team, knocked a corking three-bagger to left field. Lamina’s hit did no good, however, the side was retired before any runs resulted. Beck & Gregg and M. Kutx both worked hard for Saturday's game, and the former won after a hard tussle. The umpire gave a close decision at second base Saturday afternoon In fa vor of the Beck * Gregg team and It wa* said that the M. Kutx team would protest the game. Nothing has been heard of the protest, however. The score of Saturday's game fol low*: By the B. A G. PRESS AGENT. Before the largest and most enthu siastic crowd of the Commercial League season. Beck & Gregg defeated M. Kutx for the second time this season, by the score of 7 to 2. It was generally admitted by the crowd that It was the best and most thrilling game of ball for amateurs they have seen this season, and all en joyed It. Both clubs played great and fast bell, and each player deserves credit. For Kutz. N. Sullivan and Lamma, McBride and Ahle played star hall. And Lamma pitched In excellent form excepting, for one bad inning, when he went to piece* and the Beck & Gregg boys hammered him out for safe drives. Old BUI Garwood, the tall gent from Jasper, where natural born pitchers flourish, was right there when It canto to flinging the ball. He let the heavy Kutz hitters down with two hits and making eleven batters fall before hi* speedy curves. Q. Moore. Grist. Davis and Parish were the stick artists .»f the day and did some lovely hitting. Grist on first and V. Moore at second played star ball when It came to field ing their positions. In fact Garwood said the whole Beck & Gregg team backed him up In excellent form and all were satisfied with their plating during the game. There was a good crowd out to nee the game, especially the fair sex. and both sides had plenty of rooters, who tried to make their side win. Carleton Floyd umpired the game to the satis faction of all. He Is considered the best umps In the league. Beck A Gregg, ab. r. h. po. a. e. Davis, cf. 1 2 0 Candler, 3b. . Moore. V., 2b.

The Sun Proofs-Koca Nola combi nation Saturday turned Into a slugging match that would have made the "Mighty Lajole" green with envy. Ev erybody hit the ball, and the only known object of the game was to give the cows an afternoon off from their dally duty of chewing up the diamond. Keen, the Sun Proof* left fielder, was the batting star of the game. He secured three singles and a brace of two-baggers out of alx time* up. Johnny Cunyera, the crack pitcher from the Pittsburg Plate Glass Co.. was driven to the wood*, and ns for Henley, well, poor boy, he may get over it, but he will never look the same. A box score for this game wa* ab**- lutely Impossible. The laat seen of tne scorer he was being slowly but surei> smothered to death under a bunch or checked paper that waa large enough for an edition of a country newspaper.

And he dreamt of the beautiful days once more When he'd hear the boom of the swatlet'a roar. And ns he nmbled from crag to crag He saw In the distance a hard-won flag. He dreamt that hi* team won the pennant that day— Over the hills and far away— Over the hills and far away Over the htlta and far away The same fan strolled on a summer’* day. The race was cloae, but the good old dope Still showed that his team had a little hops. And he still dreamed on. ’neath the nooday sun. Of the gaudy pennant which they had won. "We’b get there yet," he waa heard to aay— - Over the hills and far away— Over the hills and far away. Over the hills and far a way A sad fan walked on a gray fall day. The battle waa over, the race wa* run; He’d seen the end of a season's fun. The good old dope he had figured out. The rally which he had dreamt about. The hard-won pennant—where were they? Over the hills and far away— Over the hills and far away. —GRANTLAND RICE, In Nashville Tennessean.
