THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS fflURSDAY, DECEMBER IT, IWA 9 SPORTS HNMMMTMMMNtl NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS By p£rCY H. WHITING. After positively heroic efforts It has been definitely learned that one representative of the Atlanta Baseball Club, J. W. Hefsman, was given one office by the Southern League at Its Nashville meeting this week. As at first reported he was named as one of the trustees, an office of small honor and less power. Out of the six offices In the league worth having the western clubs were given four and the eastern clubs two. And of these two the best town In the east, Atlanta, got neither. It seems very evident that Bill Smith picked up a good man In Dick Rohn, whom he has Just purchased from Peoria of the Three-I League. During the six years In which Rohn's name appears In our record book he has never batted under .250 and has never but once failed to lead his league In fielding. The one time he failed he was a good second* among the regulars. Here Is the dope on Rohn: 1908—Peoria, Three-I League, batted .275, fielded .990—led league In fielding. , 1907—Joplin, Western Association, batted .288, fielded 987—second ' among regulars In fielding. 1906—Webb City, Western Association, batted .252, fielded .980—led league first basemen. 1905—Scdaila, Western Association, batted .270, fielded .978—led all the regular first basemen at fielding. 1904—Sedalla, Western Association, hatting average not available, fielded .987—led league Drat basemen at fielding. 1903—Sedalla, Missouri Valley League, batted .301, fielded .983—led all first • basemen at fielding. That Is' something of a record, all right. Any man who can lead the regular first basemen In fielding every year for six years save only once, and bat up near the top Is a pretty good first baseman. Rohn, by the way, has always fielded better than Tom Tennant, the first baseman that Smith lost to the White Sox. Last year Rohn made only 14 errors during the season, while Tennant was guilty of 45.

C., Dec. 17.—On Thanksgiving Day Clemson closed an unsuccessful football season. Judged by victories. If all the handicaps the team labored under arc taken Into con sideration, however, the season was fairly successful. Clemson lost, on April last, Allen, who was captain-elect; Britt, Clarke, McLaurln nnd others. "Doc” McFnd- den and Wyndham were suspended nnd failed to return to college. Qaston, who had been classed as all-Southern guard, left college of his own accord. If all these men had returned, Clem- ton should have ranked not lower than second place this year. Ctemeon had to start the season In a hopeless condition, so far at the win ning of games Is concerned. The. season of 1909 should be a bet ter one. Clemson will have eight of this year's 'vifralty back next fall, and It Is certain that the teams that re garded Clemson as a practice aggrega tion this year will find a totally dif ferent proposition Ip the 1909 season. Captain Coles and the two guards. Odom nnd Fleming, will be lost next year thru graduation. These are among the very beet of the Tigers, but their places can be filled. Wlckman can easily take Odom'a ■lace. White can run the team at quar ter or take an end, while Walker, Hanckle, Stevens and Woodward have all showed that they are 'varsity cali ber. Connelly, as scrub quarter, has learned to general a team well. Boy kin has proved that he can piny either fullback, halfback or In the line, and give a good nccount of himself. Evidently the next season will show a better record than the following chatk-up for 1908: Clemson. Opponents. 15.... .. .. Gordon 0 0 V. P. l 6 , 0.. .. ...Vanderbilt 41 0 Davidson.. ., ..11 0 Georgia 1 •Tennessee . ..Tech.. 36 ..10 104 This Is not an especially good record If Judged by ordinary conditions but no one can deny that It la a fairly good ahoalng for a new team. In the game with Gordon, which was Intended as a practice game, Clemson showed up well tho she was outweighed by 6 or 7 pounds to the man. 8o well did the players acquit themselves that many hoped to see the Tigers win sev eral games, but, when seasoned teams were met, the Inexperienced of the Clemson players was clearly shown and worked havoc with high hopes. In the gnine with tho V. P. I., one of the strongest teams In the South. Clemson showed up unexpectedly well In defensive playing, hut was woefully Ineffective In offensive work. In this gnme Clemson had the ball within six Inches of the goal line, hut could not gain an Inch In three plays. The Vanderbilt game wns the first shock that Clemson met. "Stein" Stone's old team was recognised as the best In the South, but wns thought to be a little weaker than last year. Clemson hoped to kpep the score down, but failed, . Clemson hoped strongly to tie or defeat .Davidson In Columbia., Neither team scored In (he first half, and the odds were even In the second half up to within ten minutes of the close. Then Robbs nnd White had to leave the gnme at the same time. - Subs were sent In. hut n team nlwnya loses spirit when Its strongest players are taken out. Under usual conditions the game would likely have been a tie. In the game against the University of Georgia, In Augusta, Clemson again put up a fairly good defensive game and forced the Athena boys to kick fre quently. The Tigers saved their, goal line, but Georgia kicked two field go On offensive work, however, the Tigers were again weak. Robbs was also out of this game. In the game against Tennessee Clem- son made the best showing of the sea- son. Tennessee had loomed up as i probable 8. I. A. A. champion, but the tame reeulted In what many regarded as practically a tie. Robbs and Coles, Clemson's two best players, were both out of thle game. The last game against Georgia Tech was the one that Clemson had moat de sired to win. The fact that the Tigers had defeated the Yellow Jackets for consecutive seasons, despite thr dope to the contrary, had made Clem- son hopeful. No excuse Is offered In this contest Clemson was outclassed, and Tech won a deserved victory. Clemson will lose Coles, Odom and Fleming In the spring, but will havo eight of this year's 'Varsity to return next fall. Clemson will be In the run ning next season beyond all doubt. Robba, the bl* fullback, haa been elected captain. WILLIAM PRE8SY. This man Is one of Atlanta's new. pitchers. Last year he was with Kewanee, III., In the Iowa State League.
