THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS THREE STARS OF TENNIS TOURNEY By PERCY H. WHITINO. Well, well. It begin* to look • like old times, with Memphis lead- RACE IN SOUTHERN | the Southern League : And Atlanta, as usual, is run. MORE EXCITING I ning well with the pack and is ready to jump into the lead when the proper time comes (said prop er time” never being while the team is in the west.) THAN EVER BEFORE. SIX BUNCHED. It’s a great race, all right. Little Rock, Mobile, Atlanta, Nashville, New Orleans and Mem phis are all .500 or above and all under .552. Of those six clubs the two which are furthest separated—-Memphis and Little Rock —are less than four full games apart. If Memphis should lose four and Little Rock win four in a row the Travelers would pass the Bluffers. Never has there been-a “classier,” tighter race in the South land and never one in which the teams were fighting harder for the pennant. And, by the way, now that we think of it, we will take one belated “chortle” at the expense of dear old Montgomery. When the league opened we didn’t have the nerve to try to place the teams at the finish, but we did unhesitatingly state that Montgomery would finish in the second division. ( For a month or so they held first place and had the laugh on ns. But times have changed. Poor old Pretzels! Of course Cans and Nelson will fight again. They will get a $30,000 purse for doing it. Also, Nelson gets $20,000 win, lose or draw and Onns gets $10,000 the same way. Now this business of getting a salary for fighting doesn’t look right. It has always seemed to us that when the winner was to get the long end he would have more incentive to give his backers a square fight than when be got as much for fighting a draw as he did for winning. A split of the purse like the one named is simply a •premium on hippodroming. And, as everybody knows, Gans is not above tho gentle art of bilking the public. Getting back to baseball—that waj a great game played in Mobile Thursday. Nashville and Mobile kept at it for seventeen innings and neither side could score a run. Torrey gave Nashville 9 hits while Mobile got 8 off Perdue. Tho Mobile club played er rorless ball for the full 17 innings. The viotory of tho Crackers in New Orleans proved very cheering to the Cracker fans. With the first game tucked away ' all right the chances for an even break or better during the four- game series looks decidedly bright. TENNIS TOURNEY NOWINFULLSWING Thursday’s Rain Interfered With Matches, But Many Sets Will Be Played Friday. COWAN RODQER6. The Knoxville player who picked to get as far aa the chal lenge round In ainglen. CASTLETON ILL With weather conditions very much Improved and with all courts dried out In fslr condition, the Southern tennle chsmplonehlp wss resumed on the Eset Lake courts at 10 o'clock Friday morning.

Another overturn of the dope came when the "kid team.” Cowan and Van Glider, of Knoxville, defeated the Ma con veterans. Taylor and Lowry. 6-2. 6-4, 6-2. The two East Tennesseans have made a marvelously good showing and look like coming champions.

But the other Crescent NordenAyacb, was defeated by Miss Dtinwody and Miss Jones. In the Arst set Mies Von NordenAyech'e fast strokes were working well and her brilliant work, coupled with steady play by her partner, rave them a victory, 6-7.

Since Its organisation he has been a member of the Macon team, and hie hitting hns been a feature. Hr has never walloped above .260, but has always averaged around that high Ag-, ure. Stinson Is a particularly good pinch hitter. It Is said that Sttnson was disappointed In not being made manager when Malarkey was deposed.

He had a chance to acquire stork In the club, but passed It lip He hopes to get a Southern Lengue franchise here next year. “RUSS” FORD IS RIGHT ANDWINS NEW ORLEAN8, La., July 10. "Russ" Ford and eight other Atlanta ball players handed a lemon Xo New Or. leans here yesterday afternoon that was a 6 to 0 defeat, according to the score, and which was really a worse one. Those Agures show that the Pelicans were plucked, but not that Atlanta bad a chnnce to score In almost every In ning, while the local playera were help less from the start. The local tgem was certainly weaker than usual. Baxter was on Arst base. Kill at second, Huber at short and Mat thews behind the bat. Rohe, Dundon and Stratton were out of tt.' But even with the regular team In there Is small doubt but that Atlanta would have won. For Russell Ford wae having one of hie real good days. He had the Pelicans "lying down and roll ing over” at the word of command. Be scattei?d three hits thru three Innings, and never gave the Pelicans anything that looked like a remote chance of scoring. CHICAGO, July 10.—'"Bugs" Ray mond. the erratic pitcher of the St. Louis Cardinals, arrived In Chicago yesterday, but how he got here Is more than he con tell. The Arst "Bugs” knew of his arrival In Chicago was when the porter on a sleeping car aroused him from his slumbers at the depot. Raymond pitched for the Cardinals Wednesday against Boston nnd won. That was the last thing he can remem ber until he awoke In Chicago this morning. How he got on the train and why Is all a blank to "Bugs" and he fears someone Is trying to kidnap him so as to place the Cardinals further down the scale In the National League. “Bugs" was out to the West Side park yesterday to see the game between the Cubs and the Dodgers, decked In hie Sunday best with a few decorations In the way of souvenir buttons etc., and seemed to be In a hi hie trance, he came than to a strange town. He left last night for St. Louie where he wlU Join the Cardinals and try to explain to McAleer how he got Into a trance that landed him In Chi cago. BILL SMITH UNCERTAIN ABOUT TODATS PITCHERS Will Use Grant Schopp or Viebahn—Frank Will Work Clark—O’Brien Umpired Poorly on Thursday. By WILL R. HAMILTON. NEW ORLEANS, July 10.—Bill Smith swears you can search him to find out what pitcher he will use today. — He's blessed If he knows. “I would have used Castleton." he said, "If he had not been taken sick Now the choice Is between Schopp and Viebahn." Otherwise the Atlanta team, which plays today, will be the sanje one that faced New Orleans yesterday, and the Crackers openly express their belief that they can cop a vlctocy. Charley Frank will send Ginger Clark on the Arlng line. This veteran right-hander has not been effective against Atlanta this year.

July 10.— Adalrsvllle defeated East Point here Wednesday In a fast game by the score of 7 to 2. Dyar's pitching was the fea ture, while both Robertson and Kline were hit at wllL NEW ORLEANS, July 10.—While the Pelicans In their crippled state played a very weak game In nearly all depart ments, local fans will hand it to Russ Ford for pitching one of the bent games of the season. Ford was master of the situation from start to finish, and even If the locals had got an even break on the umpiring they would have been hopelessly beaten by Ford's spltball. The three hits that were made tven clean, but they were so few and scat tered that they counted for nothing. Not until the ninth Inning did a local player get to second base. In that spasm Rlckert got as far as third. Here Is a small summary of what Ford did with his npltter, with the very able as sistance of one O'Brien: Fanned Rlckert thrice. Ranter once, NIII once. Huber once. Matthews twice. Frit* once. Mowed Pelicans down In nne.two- three order In four Innings. Let only thirty-two men face him. Made live bAtsmen hit the ball to him. Let only six men hit to the outfield. Joe Rlckert had a new bat made for the occasion, but the length and breadth of the willow availed Joe nothing until his single came In the ninth. With Ford and O'Brien against him. Joe was powerless. He struck at high ones, low ones, wide ones, close ones. less HIMIMI [ QUESTIONS ANSWERED Under this hesd the Sporting Ed itor will attempt to answer any questions asked about subject, per taining to sports. Sporting Editor Tho Georgian: Will you settle this disputed point In a game of pitch, or set-back: Three traveling men were playing pitch here last night; seven points was the game. Each of the three had made five points nnd each needed two points to go out. "Low" counted for the man who played It. There was no discard. After the deal, A hid two. B promptly bid three. C. the dealer, had the Jack, ten, three and nine of hearts and bid four. A had the king of hearts, which' was high. B hod the two of hearts, whleh was low. B also caught C’c Jack with the queen. But A made game—of course C, In spite of his four trumps. Including Jack and three, was set. And of course, a!so, both A and B, each winning two points, went out. All three leave It to the sporting ed itor of The Georgian—who wins? TRAVELING MAN. When the bidder Is set back the points go out In order, high, low, Jack, game, so that B wins with his low and jack. Some persons Imagine that If a player can get home points enough to make him game before another player makes low or catches the Jack he goes out nrat, but such Is not the case. No points are counted until the last card has been played. The order In which the points are mads has nothing to do with It. Dear Sir—To decide a bet, please let me know If the Cincinnati club has at any time this season led the National League, Yours respectfully, , E. J. BOWLES. No. NEW ORLEANS. July 10,-It Is sat,. In baseball circles this morning that President Kavanaugh has heeded i protests of Manager Frank against r plre O'Brien and has dispatched Bill. Carpenter here for the remaining games of the Atlanta series to work O’Brien. O'Brien has tried the patience of the baseball players and fans In this town to the limit. He Is In for some trouble as sure ns he stays here much longer and gives up the kind of decisions he ha* handed the Pelicans In the last fen- days. O'Brien has done a great deal more to demoralize the New Orleans team than the combined misfortunes which are keeping Rohe, Dundon nnd Strat ton out of the game. It wouldn't take but a game or two, either, for him have the Crackers up In the air. Had Thursday's been a close game there would have been all kinds of trouble Dyer and Winters went nfter O'Brien strong In the first part of the game and relented only when they saw they had the game their own way. The first time up the umps called _ couple of raw ones on Dyer and the Cracker third baseman handed It to him In large doses. Winters got a raw deal right after Dyer and It looked for a while as tho the whole Atlanta team were going after him. This series Is going to be hotly fought, and If President Kavanaugh has not already dispatched another umpire In this direction he had better do so before - Sunday's game. A close game with a big lot of fren sled fans In attendance and Just one raw deal for the home team from Mr. O'Brien would bring a few thousand bugs over the bleacher wall after him.
