S. Farnsworth. UP East, Atlanta has the name of being the mqat loyal baseball village on the map. But. getting right down tn cold facta. It doesn't seem as though the fans of this fair city are breaking their neck- to give Charley Hemp hill any encouragement this yea; True. Atlanta fandom has been forced to put up with some very putrid baseball of late yea IS. and they can hardly he exp« toil io sup port a loser as well as a winner. Rut, nevertheless, at some of the recent game.- at Pont > park the fans have rooted hard for the vis itors and at times even .irered the local lads President Callaway is doing all he tan to get a first division club, and so is Manager Hemphill They are- leaving no stone unturned to give Atlanta a winner. And surely there are no two persons who alt more anxious to see the home ath letes tight up near the iop I< means money to the one ami repu tation upheld to the other. Hemphill came to Atlanta anil took hold of a cellar combination He started the season with the blackest outlook possible. He real ized that he would have to build up an entirely new team to get any results And In doing this ho has > been forced to Hutter around the bottom Hut slowly and surely he Is welding a combination that will give a good account of itself yet.

I won't say h<> quit, hut anybody in Ills position would be unable to play their best nrand.

Thy fact that Hemphill, has, heetj purchasing men right and left proves that he Is doing all in his power to get a winner. And he. is Just the man who will accomplish what he Is after, too Hard Job For Hemphill. So. come on. you Atlanta fans, stick by the team, encourage them al every opportunity, and you will soon be rewarded. Don't expect Hemphill to get a pennant winner the tizst year. It takes time to bring a club frcpii last place' to the head of the ladder. , Twenty years of good, solid base ball experience inusl have made Hemphill a’ better Judge of ball players than some of the would be bn-ebnll experts who were with the teanj when they were on top, but xxho are now panning the ever lasting . daylights out of Hemphill .mil the local baseball association. And the next time you go om to I'onex pirk root for the home boys and try to encourage them all you can. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN” AND NESVS. FRIDAY. JUNE 14. 1912 Neither Doyles Nor Pell Coming Here for Big Tennis Event SOUTHERNER SHOULD WIN M 2 TENNIS TITLE By F’ercy H. Whiting. THE coming Southern tennis championship at Atlanta gives promise of being a real "Southern event." Not a sin gU’ Northern player has announced his entry. Not a single one has planned to come to Atlanta for the big Southern esent. The Doyle brothers, who have come down from Washington two seasons in a row and who have both times taken back the two main cups, will positively not com pote this season. This is a big surprise. It was presumed that, because they had two legs on each trophy, they would take the trou ble to come down and make it three. With this very point in view, the.local club was making every effort’ to round up a couple of sharks who would he good enough to keep the silverware at home, or at least to string out thy trouble of winning it. And now H. E. Doyle stays he will not come down this year. He is going to Maine with bis family for his vacation and will pass up Atlanta. When this news is published there will be easier breathing in Atlanta, for It looked as though the doubles and singles cups would surely go to Washington for keeps. Which meant that somebody had to "dig ' to replace them. Theodore Roosevelt Pell was an other who had planned to play a return engagement in Atlanta. Rut al the last minute lie was chosen on the supplementary list of the Olympic team, which meant that he could go If he would pay his own expenses. And as money is no especial object to Pell, he Is go- ing. And Atlanta loses the Indoor King. However, the tennis committee of the Atlanta Athletic club will use every reasonable effort to get a few strong players. B. M. Grant and Carleton Smith are going to Pittsburg for the clay court cham pionship which begins- yJune 22. While they are there they will at tempt to round up a couple of stars. • • • cpHERE will be no dearth of en *■ tries for the championship. The fact that no Northern or Eastern stars will appear in the tourna ment will make it peculiarly' at tractive to Southern players, who haven't entered very freely of late, owing to the fact that there were alw’ays a few players with whom they had no chance. This year the tournamenj should be as open as a keg ;of beer, and there :is bound to be a big entry from New Orleans, . Knoxville. Nashville, Memphis and Birmingham. Also, of course, Atlanta players will enter more freely than usual. Not very much is hoard of dub tennis in .Atlanta, but for all that the courts are always'busy' ang.the club now numbers more active ten nis members than ever before in history. • • • JT will he a pleasing change if a Southertier cops.

W. Williams. London. England. June n —What promises to he the worst scandal of the British turf in ten years became known w hen the sporting weekly. The Looking Glass, announced that Sweeper 11. the American colt which started favorite in the re cent derby, was doped before the race. A significant fact In connection with the dope story was that H. B. Duryea dismissed Danny Maher, who rode Sweeper 11. and en gaged" Frankie O'Neill, ' another American boy. to pilot Sweeper II in the remainder of his stake en gagements. An investigation shows that, in the opinion of a large number of racing men Sweeper II was doped. Duryea's trainer is unable to ac count for the miserable showing of the colt. It Is suspected that two or three bookmakers who stood to lose fortunes on a Sweeper ll,vic tory' know more about the "doping" than they w'ould care to say. It was certain that when Sweeper II left his stable for the big race he Was never fitter. When he re turned to his stall after the derby the colt was listless and feeble. He wasa kept in the stable until Saturday, when he was taken out for an exercise canter. He inoved very’ stiffly, and appeared to show the effects of some strong stimu lant. In the derby he ran like a doped horse, to the astonishment of his trainer, who considered Sweeper 11 a certainty. Sweeper IT's greatest asset is his speed, but he ran with out putting an ounce of energy In his work. Danny Maher said aft er the race that he could not un derstand the performance, for in the Newmarket Sweeper II was pfiilling him out of the saddle, and then, released for the final dash, shot out like an arrow to beat eas ily horses that defeated him in the derby. In the derby. Maher said that Sweeper II moved as if the exer tion of racing were hurting him. Maher said, “He never could go with his field." At no point In the race did the American colt hold a w inning chance. That this scandal may ever he probed to the bottom is problemati cal. Such things occur on the Eng lish turf, though seldom in connec tion with the derby. That supine body, the English Jockey club, which refused Richard Croker per mission to Wain his horses at New market. never takes any' notice of anything.- Herman B. Duryea, who does not take much interest in English racing and dislikes pub licity. will not press or demand an inquiry.
