THE ATALANT GEORAGIAN AND NEWS EDNESDAY, JUNE Sickening Slump Toward Last Place Goes Steadily and Sadly On CRACKERS DROP TWO; ARE NOW NEXT TO LAST By Percy H. Whiting. rpHE Crackers' dropped two games nearer oblivion here yesterday afternoon and the Vols cut down a good big section of the gap that separates them from the cellar exit. A couple more afternoons like that and the <'lackers will be as utterly and en tirely last as they ever got during the depressing days of 1911. The scores in yesterday after noon’s engagements were S to 0 and 5 to 4. If there were an alibi for the Crackers we d never print it. They deserved all they got, and more. Yet symapthy should be extend ed to the two Cracker pitchers. They deserved better than they got. The unspeakably putrescent fielding of the Cracker club paved the way or actually caused most of the Volunteer runs. Every now and then a club is entitled to pull a game that is un speakably bad. But the Crackers overstepped all bounds by pulling two in the same afternoon. It was u "hijeous” performance. * • • '■pillS gentle hammer throwing * isn't intended to act as a scoop, to shovel away any of the credit that the tail-enders deserve for , taking a double-header from the semi-tail-enders. The Nashville team, though it made a good lot of mistakes, was a world series per former compared with Atlanta. The Vols were able to take advantage of every mistake and to get all that was coming to them on the Cracker misplays. At the same time nobody who saw the game wilt deny that It was more a case of the Crackers kick ing it away than of the Volunteers winning It. • • • THE Crackers began their rough work in the first inning, when O'Brien perpetrated an error, but nothing happened that counted un til the fourth. We have no morbid intentions of going Into all the sad details, but this fourth inning is a sam ple. James grounded to East, who missed It Lindsay bunted down the first base line and O’Dell fell in attempting to field it. Wel i honce dropped one in front of the plate and Graham mussed up the play With the bases full. Young let one down easy in front of the plate. Graham recovered it, touched the plate and threw to first, com pleting a double. Perry then sent a slow one down to Dessau and heat it to firs' for a scratch hit. snd Lindsay scored Schwartz hit another one and Welchonce and Perry tallied, the latter making I; all around from first to the plate on a slow single to Hemphill. That was the way the whole aft ernoon went. In the seventh when he Vols added their other three Dessau allowed a base on balls and O'Brien perpetrated an error before any damage was done. After that came a couple of real hits and the scoring was ended. Against Case the Crackers weie helpless. The only times they did hit him it netted them nothing, tn the eighth a three-baggei by Hemphill was followed immediately by .< single by Callahan, yet Hemp hill iouldn'l score. Os cotese, Cal lahan's effort was a scratch to the infield. The Crackers were sole as fro zen crabs at the umpires, hut that didn’t get them anything. And it Is more than likely that they could hace umpired the game themselves I and yet not won it. • • • 1 ->HE second game was quite as hopel sly wretched as the first, only it was more exciting, for the Vote pulled a few erro s. ami Bair was wild, the Crackers were in the hunt. Tommy Atkins pitched for Atlan ta, and. as lias bion the case al- I »m, ry tune tin i 'hi" wondei has worked since, hr joined the Crackers last season, the club just refused to win for him. Every inning in which the Vols scored a run off Atkins an error figured. Young, the first man who scored, got safe on O'Dell’s error. East helped Storch around, after he had singled, with a wild throw. Lindsay, the third man who scored, lived on one error and advanced’on another. Despite the bad fielding of the locals, the game entered the tenth inning with the score tied. 4 and 4 Glenn pulled something unexpect ed by opening the tenth with an In field grounder which he beat out do you all get that'.’ Jumbo Glenn, the baby road roller, beat out an Infield tap that was perfectly han dled! Well, after that ANYTHING could happen. Bair sacrificed the giant along to second, and then Storch smacked out a single that sent across the winning run. It may be mentioned that in the ninth Hemphill took out Atkins. Apparently It was to let Sykes bat. COULON IN “SUSPICIOUS” FIGHT WITH FRANK HAYS NEW HAVEN. CONN. June 12. Johnny Coulon. of Chicago, the ban tamweight champion, figured in a fight with Eranklie Hays, of St. Louis, which fans looked upon as a fake. The bout was scheduled to ten rounds, but at the end of the third Referee Fitzgerald left the ring, refusing to officiate in what he said was a "frame-up.” He de clared that the boys had refused to tight even after he had warned them. Chief of Police Cowles ordered the fight to go on and Announcer Doherty acted as referee. The boys went at It again, but before they had been fight ing a minute in the fourth. Hays went to the floor. He remained there until the count of eight, but after a couple of seconds went down again, this time being counted out. WELLS AND PALZER SIGN TO BOX IN N.Y.

SMITH ASKS UMPIRE TO PROTECT HIM FROM FAN NEW YORK, June 12.—An appeal to the umpire for protection from abuse by a spectator, this being the first time a big league player has taken advan tage of the rule permitting it since the memorable Ty Cobb incident, a few weeks ago, was made by Third Base man Smith, of the Brooklyn team, dur ing the Brooklyn-Pittsburg game yes terday.
