THE Fourth of July is so much a day of baseball now* tha* a man wonders oft' n how on earth folks amused them-elves bark tn the dark days before the tame was invented Tt is the non-fans day at the park It is the big time for the occasional bug. And. of course, it marks the double ap pearance at the ball park of all the regulars. In A'lanta today, as usual, two games are scheduled - one In the morning and one in the afternoon Nothing better than a sparing attendance is ever looked for in the morning Bui in the afternoon if the Weather is even fairly decent, there will be an old time, pack '•m-in mob. A lot of the folk? who will be there will not know a ‘aerilio- hit from a shin guard, > wept bs the sound; and a few thousand will not care whether the home team wins, lose- or ties will even be in doubt, perhaps as to which is the home team, for such is the way of holi day crowds -but they’ll till have a big time. • * • UP tn the eleventh inning of yes terday’s ball game it was a most r’proarious affair. But tn the first of the eleventh, with the score 1 to 1 Brady weakened, his sup port flickered and the Crackers were beaten 5 to 1. I’p to that time Brady Pad pitch ed a most marvelous gam'. He al lowed only 5 hits in 10 innings. Campbell pitched against Brady, and it’s hard to tell which to ad mire most about the man. his ’kill or his luck. He pitched a whaling good contest, allow Ing 6 hits In 11 innings. Rut his support was a shade better than marvelous. OT>’’ shut his eyes and grabbed one ball that was ticketed for a long one. Campbell himself made a lucky stop. And every time the Crackers got behind th" ball it had the steam the elevation and ev erything of a safe hit except the direction. Campbell had the Crack ers "hitting ’em w here they were." instead of where they weren’t, which is fata! to batting aver ages. Campbell was good, though The Crackers had him In distress in the seventh, ninth, tenth and eleventh Inning' And all they could get out of it was one stufft run. equal to tie ft and keep it tied until the eleventh, but not enough to win Rut then the Crackers never do win them anyhow, when they go to extra Inning' Nobody would kirk on the game, though It was fast clean, well played and exciting.

He was expected hack today.' and It was presumed by the players that he would come through with the money that was needed. The Nashville team has been in a bad way financially all the year.

It has at least contributed one full ball club to the Southern league. Eleven ex- Crackers are now cavorting around the Southern circuit.

SMITH AND THORNTON CLOSING IN ON TITLE 1 " i ■> i , —■— r-r tITH the weather fair, or at W least not rainy. good progress was made in the tennis matches at East Lake this morning in the Southern cham pionship. One big match in dou bles was decided, a number of sin gles matches were played, the mixed doubles were started and the woman's singles consolation, a new event at East Lake, was got under way. Smith and Thornton, of Atlanta, defeated Rodgers and Cowan, of Knoxville, in the semi-final round of the men's doubles in the South ern championship golf tournament at East Lake th’is morning. This was the most important match yet plaved tn the tournament. The score was 6-1, 6-1, 7-5. With the Tennesseeans so easily disposed of the Atlanta stars should move on smoothly through to the champion ship. In the men’s singles, semi-final round, t'harest defeated Hayes, 6-1, 6-1. In the second round, men's sin gles. Carter defeated Brooks. 6-2. 10-8. In the second round, men’s con solation, Doyle defeated Crenshaw, 6-3, 6-0. Tn the women’s singles, semi final round, Mrs. Taylor defeated Mrs. Seymour, 6-2. 6-2. Miss Stur geon defeated Miss Tudor Perry, 6-3. 6-1. In the women s consolation sin gles. preliminary round. Miss Mar garet Traylor defeated Miss O’Brien by default. Pairings for this division are Miss Benson vs. Miss Margaret Traylor. Miss Con nally vs. Miss Mary Traylor, win ner of the Traylor-O’Brien match, and Mrs. Milam vs. winner of the Benson-Traylor match. In the mixed doubles, prelimi nary round, Miss Mary Traylor and C. S. Davis defeated Miss El len Perry and V. McMillan by de fault. Pairings for the other matches in this division are Miss Murphy and Hoohendale vs. Miss Margaret Traylor and Reilly; Miss Jones and Rams peck vs. Miss Tu dor Perry and Matthews; Mrs. Sey mour and Thornton vs.> Miss Smith and Bartlett; Miss Connal ly and Thornwell vs. Mrs. Traylor and Brooks; Mrs. Milam and Scott vs. winner of Murphy and Hoch endale-Traylor and Bellly match. Miss O’Brien and Smith play Miss Sturgeon and Clark In the first round, having drawn byes. The doubles matches got a good start and there were some extreme ly stubborn contests. V. R Smith and Hayes, of Atlanta, beat Rodg- ers and Cowan, of Knoxville, the first two sets they played, 6-4. 6-3. Then the Knoxville players rallied and took the next three sets, 6-3. 6-3, 6-2. The Seott-Orr vs. Brooks- Bartlett match also required five sets before the latter pair could win, while two other matches re quired four sets for a decision. It. appears certain that Smith and Thornton are going through to the championship in this division, but they are going to meet determined opposition all the way. The men's singles reached a point last night when it was a cinch that every match from that time for ward would be a hard one. With the talent pretty well concentrated in the lower frame, today’s matches should be particularly good. in the woman’s singles the most progress was made yesterday. By steady. businesslike work the matches were completed, with one exception, down to the semi-final round. Nothing has developed yet to indicate that Mrs. Taylor can be beaten in the tournament, and it is highly probable that she can defeat Miss Murphy, of New Orleans, in the challenge round, which will be played Friday or Saturday.
