THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 5,1907. r [ NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS It was lucky that Atlanta won Wednesday, for Birmingham spilled a pame to the Babblers and the Memphis tepm still has its one and one-half game lead on Atlanta. And only nine more playing days remain in this season—that is, nine for Atlanta and ten for Memphis. It looks as though Birmingham might have won that game Wednesday. Suggs certainly pitched miserably enough and his support had rough edges on it. But somehow the Babblers got away with it by a good safe margin. It is up to Birmingham to tnke a game or two. The Baron players claim to be pulling for Atlanta; and, if they are, they can not show their sympathy in a way that would be more appre ciated than by hammering Memphis down aways. Somebody has got to do it. and we can more safely count on Birmingham than Montgomery. The Legislators presented second place to the Memphis ag gregation last year. We are now sincerely rooting that they will not give the Babblers the pennant this year. Little Rock lost Wednesday to Nashville, which encourages us somewhat. We had fears awhile back that the Travellers would he a mighty tough proposition when we got them over here, but if they are easy for Nashville, they ought to be easy for anybody. That Dobber team, by the way, is making quite a finish and is hammering such select aggregations as Memphis and Litttb Rock. RATTLING GOOD BATTLE WON BY CRACKER CREW The Sally League season is over and Charleston took the pennant. We would have rather seen a Georgia club turn the trick, but the best of the lot in the state was Macon, which land ed third. However, Georgia was the whole show in the Sally last year, and maybe it is better to divide up. SALLY SEASON IS OVER; CHARLESTON WINS RAG 8TANDINQ OF 1907. Ct-UBS- Played. Won. Lott. r. C.

BARONS WANT CRACKERS TO CAPTURE THE PENNANT Second Baseman Gatins, who threatened to start something with Ills hit In the ninth. McKenzie Batted Out Box, Spade Saves Day. of Savannah Plans Football Team Special to The Georgian. Birmingham, Ala., Sept. t.—If the Barons loss the series to Memphis It will be because the Memphlt not only outplayed them, but because luck broke hard. The Barons, ons and all, are deter mined to defeat Memphis, not because the victory will send Birmingham a point or two forward, but because a defeat of Memphis would be a boost for Atlanta. Just why the Barons are pulling so hard for Atlanta can not bs learned, but It Is true that they are. Wilhelm, the pitching star of thi cal stair, stated, yesterday that the Memphis aggregation would .walk upon tho rock destined to wreck them Birmingham. "They have been playing out of their class nil this season, and this fact will be brought to light this week. If I w a betting man It would all go for At lanta to win the pennant." Macon Loses Last Game of Season in South Atlantic Special to The Georgian. Macon, Go., Sept 6.—Macon and Augusta broke even In the last two games of the season. Macon won the first game by one run and Auguata the second by the snme small margin. Pitchers for both gamea worked well, and were given fairly good sup port. At periods of the games the playera on both sides played like a bunch of school boys. The scores: FIR8T GAME. Macon. ab. r. h. po. a. e.

B ASEBALL ATLANTA vs. NEW ORLEANS. _ THURSDAY,FRIDAY and SATURDAY. Ml Special to The Georgian. Savannah. Oa., Sept. 6.—With base ball on the wane, the aportlng devotee In this neck of woods Is turning hla thoughts to football. It la quite certain that the South will again witness mid-winter football be tween the star Savannah team and nn all-Southern aggregation. Neyle Col quitt, manager of last year's team, has returned from North Carolina, where he saw "Pee Wee" Forsythe, the cap tain of the famous all-Southern Stars ho played here last winter. Forsythe has already begun corralling playera. He says he proposes to marshal the most formidable team ever gotten to gether In the South. The games will probably be played Christmas and New Years, as last year. STARS DEFEAT SEAL8. Ths Merrill Stars defeated the Seale Saturday afternoon In a pretty gome by the score of 9 to 2. The features of the gome were the batting of Con- nally and Wrlgley brothers. Score by Innings: R. H. E. Merrill Stars . .300 021 12*— 9 11 2 Seals 001 100 000— 2 6 4 Batteries—Connolly and N. Wrlgley; Miller and Phillips. It took precisely three Innings for the New Orleans players to knock Mc Kenzie .the "Champeen" pitcher of the league, otlt of the box in Wednesday's game. And from that time to the whirlwind finish the Pelicans looked dangerous in the extreme. But Billy Smith's men tied the score In the famous lucky seventh and won the game In the eighth. The score was 4 to 3 and the game had whiskers on It. It was obvious that there was some thing wrong with the leading pitcher of the league when Jakey Ats, the ,flrst man up, ripped off n two-bagger. Man ning then sacrificed, Cross singled, scoring Atz and tallied on Brelten- steln’s single. Tills was not mueh of a pennant winning start, but the doughty Crack ers showed what they were made of by- sending two runs across the plate in their half of the first Inning. Singles by Becker and Winters and a three- bagger by Paskert did the stunt. The third 'inning saw the finish of old Scotch Oats. Atz opened up the Inning again with n single. Manning was walked and Cross and Sabrle sin gled In turn. And one run was put over, which gave New Orleans the lead, 3 to 2. Then Bob Spade was called to the rescue and he did not do a thing but pitch swell baseball. From the time he started business until two were down In the ninth Bob did not allow a hit or anything that looked In the least like one. He had a world of speed and first-class control. Both sides took things easy until the seventh. Then, as usual, events transpired. You can always tell when the cele brated seventh arrives, provided At lanta Is not leading. For the Instant that the first Cracker goes to bat the rooting begins, stronger than ever be fore. Fox responded' to the cheering yes terday by ripping off a single. Jordan sacrificed, Dyer singled and Sweeney filed out to the catcher. Spade was the works, though, and sent out a hit that Atis Jumped sixteen feet for nnd missed. Whereupon James Fox tallied with the run that tied the score. The eighth Inning beat New Orleans. Paskert uncorked a two-bagger the first shot out of the box. Sid Smith sacrificed him to third and he scored on Fex’s grounder which did not rise to the height of being a hit, but which was good enough to win the game. Things looked a little bilious for At lanta In the ninth. With two down Gatins singled and Stratton hit 'out a two-bagger that sent the New Orleans second baseman to third. "Matty" Mat- thewa waa sent In to bat for Frit* and local fandom held Its breath. There was a lusty sigh of relief, though, when "Matty" hit up a high foul. Jim Fox got under It with due celerity and wna not even contented to let the ball fall Into his hands. Lest some mistake be made he reached right up into the near clouds and pulled down the ball. And right at that point ended a sen- TWO WEEKS’ TRIP FOR BARNSTORMERS Atlanta Players Go to Rome, Chattanooga, Knoxville and Richmond---Smith to Sdout P. and O. League. The day after the big benefit game Is pulled off at Ponce DeLeon the Atlanta team, headed probably by Act ing Bench Manager Newt Ethridge, will go on a two weeks' barnstorming trip, which wll Include games at Borne, Oa.; Chattanooga and Knox ville, Tenn., and Richmond, Va, Frank Jtoffett has written Billy Smith,. asking for games before the Crackers go to Richmond, and Billy has figured it out that the Barnstorm ers can play September 17 In Rome, Ga.; September 18 and 19 In Chatta nooga. and September 20 und 21 at Knoxville. Then oh Sunday they can Jump to Richmond and play there the week of September 23-28. Bill Will Scout Some. Manager Bill Smith Is not going on the trip. The players have asked him to manage the tiffalr, but Billy Is go ing to Jump Into the Ohio and Penn sylvania League and have a look at the talent there, with a view of drafting anything that looks good. That league Includes the following clubs: Youngstown. Akron. Lancaster, New Castle, Marlon, Newark, Mansfield and Sharon, and last year It turned nna some star players.

EX-SOUTHERN LEAGUERS PERFORMED VERY WELI Macon and Augusta broke even In afternoon by the score of 8 to the concluding games of the year In the Central City Wednesday afternoon. "Wild Bill" Clarke was on the firing line for the Llpers in the first game and he pitched a sterling game. Holmes pitched good ball for Augusta In the first contest. Harley twirled the sec ond game for Macon and Holmes for Augusta. Duckle won the last contest and got away with an even break for the day. Columbia, the cellar .champions of the Sally League, played like real champions Wednesday afternoon and defeated the Sea Gulls from Charles ton by the score of 3 to 1. Columbia made thirteen hits. Bugs Raymond, formerly the "human microbe,” of the Sally League, but who now holda the same position In the Na tional League and who Is ranking along with the great nnd only "Rube” Waddell, lost his first game for St. Louis to the Chicago Cubs Wednesday Cubs secured ten hits off Ravmnnd'i delivery and had It not been for Bn glaring errors the Bug might have wet the contest. Reulback pitched fur thi Cubs. The New York Giants and thJ Brooklyn Trolley Dodgers broke even! In a double-header In New York B'edl nesday afternoon. Handsome Arrj McIntyre, formerly of Memphis, in ttr Southern League, loaf the first garat. for Brooklyn, but Nap Rucker, the SlaJ rtetta marvel, was equal to.the occJ slon and won his game by the score of 4 to 3. Rucker allowed the Giants on;y| four scattered hits. Our old friend Glen Llebhardt 1*1 feated the Detroit Tigers Wednesday afternoon with &Iitllln pitching, by tbt score of 6 to 5. The Tigers could t hit Llebhardt to any extent. By toslg) Wednesday Detroit drops to secot place In the American League stand-1 lng. Philadelphia now tops the bunch! NOTES ON THE GAY DOINGS AT PONCE DE LEON If there have been many better gntnea this year than the one Wed nesday then we must have over looked them. Not an error waa made by either team and the fielding was sensa tional, In spite of the muddy field. The going was bad when the game began, but at the end of the Pelicans' half of the eighth It was made worse by a shower that fell with considerable violence out of a sunny sky. It looked for a min ute as though there would be no more baseball and that the score would go down as a tie. Finally the rain stopped and after tarpau lins had been hauled over the catcher's box and sand had been piled on the wettest of the base lines the game continued. The game opened up with as much wrangling as has been heard this year. It looked to Atlantans ns though Ruddy were giving the Crackers a shade the worst of It. nnd local players protested loudly and the fans hissed and hooted. The Pelicans thought that they had the* worst of It, too, and put up their full share of the complaints. Altogether It was quite exciting. Ed Sweeney, usually the most peaceful of mortals, camped on Ruddy's trail for awhile until Rud dy stepped up' and "called him" with the threat, "You catch ball or out you go." And Sweeney showed good Judg ment by quieting down. For If he had been put out of the game At lanta would have been In the very dickens of a fix. Cross showed a bit of quick Judg ment In the third inning. Paskert bunted a peach down third base line and Cross started at It like a cat goea after a mouse. It was a marvelously good bunt, though; and as Cross neared the ball It became obvious that Pas kert was pretty sure to beat It out and that there waa a chance that the ball would roll foul. Cross took the chance, anyway. He ran over the ball and then turned around and watched It roll outside the tine. It was a close call for the Pellcnns, but a lucky spin In the mud sent the sphere out In foul territory. Paskert’s three-bagger In the first Inning would have gone safe with a dozen fielders on the Job. But Gaston woefjlly misjudged It and ran way forward before he tumbled to the fact that George had lammed out a screamer. The first kick on Rudderham'a decisions came In the first Inning when Paskert tried to score from third on Fox's fly to right field. From the press box, wHbre an ex cellent vtew of plate decisions can be obtained. It looked as though Paskert beat the ball to the plate. But probably he did not, for Ruddy Is generally right, and always fair. The real loud howl came, how ever, In the second Inning, when Otto Jordan made the neatest at tempt of the season to steal home. "Cap" had hit a two-bagger and had been sacrificed to third. With two out and McKenzie at bat It wnz obviously up to him to get himself home snme way. So he started with Fritz’s arm and dash ed for the plate. He beat the ball there, too. but unfortunately McKenzie Interfered with Stratton nnd Jordan was called out for this Interference. The crowd thought that Ruddy claimed that Otto had been touched out and roasted “his umps" In fine style. The trouble with McKenzie on Wednesday was nothing In the world but over-anxiety. "I knew what wa*tbe matter with him In a minute,” said Billy Smith, after the game. "He was over-anxious and that was all there was to It. Qtto Jordan said the same thing at the end of the first Inning. His next time out he will do better.” Atx made an awful stab for Fox's hit In the seventh Inning and Jump ed about "steen” yards Into the air. When he landed he fell flat. When Croas stole In the first In ning, Sabrle clearly and deliberate ly Interfered with Sweeney In hla throw to aecond. Sweeney tried to get Rudderham to call Cross out because of the Interference, but Ruddy couldn't see It. Then Sweeney turned to Sabrlo and with all due deliberation re marked: "You do that again and I’ll Jump all over you,” und he certainly looked as though he meant It. WHERE THEY PLAY TODAY.

Whiting. Sporting Editor, Atlanta, Ga.: Dear Sir—Will you pleaae. decide the following: A la pitching for the home team, and, being very wild, lets In four runs In the first Inning. He la taken out at the end of that Inning and R finlahe* the game, allowing only one hit, but no more runs are made, and the home team la shut out. Which pitcher get. the discredit of loalng the game? Please quote rule, If not too much trou ble. provides that when a pitcher Is taken out of the game and hla team Is ahead he gets the credit of winning If hig team wins and the other pitcher gets the discredit If the team loses. If his team Is behind when he Is taken out and loses the game the defeat goes against him. . If the game Is won it goes to the pitcher who replaces him. Such an arbitrary rule often works unfairly and ought to be obsolete, but the Southern has not yet waked up to that fact.
