LOSER OVER OLYMPIAD
LONDON, July 19.—The Canadian,
Australian and African, athletes at
Stockholm,, according to the corre
spondent of The Times in that city,
favor entering a single team from the
whole empire in future games instead
of entering the colonies . separately.
“We have. an. analogy in . the case of
the United States," adds the corre
spondent, “whose score points include,
negroes, red Indians and Hawaiians.”
Sir Arthur Conan .Doyle, in a letter
to The Times, strongly advocates the
foregoing plan, and says:
I would go further and seek among
the Ceylon or Malay swimmers, Indian
runners and Sikh wrestlers for possi
ble winners.”

is calling him a frizzly chicken, which is
a brutal epithet in Mississlp.

If it will make it any easier for The
Georgian readers it will be entirely satis
factory to run the standing of the South
ern league upside down, it has seeme.d
that way to us for a long time.
John King, of Sacred Heart college.
Denver, one of the Phillies’ new pitchers,
is said to have more speed than anybody
who has broken into basebal since Walter
Johnson appeared.
• • •
Umpire Johnstone, who was graduared
from the Southern to the National league
some years ago, has about outlived his
usefulness and will soon give way to a
younger man. •
Eppa Rixey is probably the first kid
pitcher who broke out of college and onto
a major league team at a salary of S9OO a
month. He was wise enough to get a lot
of clubs bidding for him. The Phillies
bought and haven't yelped since.
• • •
The Phillies have released their option
on Beck and he belongs to Buffalo.
• • •
Johnny Kling’s “nine of least resistance"
is made up of some grand old cast-offs —
Kling himself, once the country's best;
Devlin. ex-Giant; Vln Campbell, ex-Van
derbilt and ex-Pirate; Otto Hess, once a
wonder with the Naps; Ben Houser, once
a Mackman; John Titus, Steve White and
e'en Hub Perdue. Great once—but now
look at ’em!
• • •
Head in Detroit paper, “Red Sox Pitch
ers Weak as Gibraltar." Yes. and the in
field is soft as nails and the outfield is
feeble like Ralph Rose.

Bill Hart has gone home, vowing he
will never umpire another game.

Says Charley Dryden: “Charles Victory
Faust was an Interested spectator, chew
ing gum to keep himself in condition.
Charley is having trouble with the nation
al commission. Umpire Rigler advised
Faust to cut up his uniform, go back to
Marion, Kan , and wait until sent for. Hub
Perdue tried it and it worked."
• ♦ •
And. after all. Rube Marquard was the
first Giant to lose three in a row.
The historic incident when Harry
Matthews stuck his foot in the umpire’s
ball bag and went limping around chasing
a high fly with the balls scattering around
like hail could not happen at the Ath
letics park. They have a box sunk In the
earth where the balls are kept. When the
umpire, wants a handful he opens the lid,
grabs ’em, shuts the lid. And there’s
nothing to step in.

The Phillies beat the Reds in the race

Huntington, Mountain league, team.
FANS CHASE UMPIRE IN
NEW YORK STATE LEAGUE
WILKESBARRE, PA., July 19.—Two
thousand partisans of the home team of
the New York State league, angered by
decisions which they evidently believed
cost Wilkesbarre a close game with
Troy, swarmed out on the field at the
close of play and made a rush for Um
pire Cleary. The situation looked se
rious for Cleary, but seven members of
the state constabulary who had wit
nessed the game hurried to the um
pire’s aid and beat off his assailants
with their clubs and possibly saved him
from being lynched.
The umpire's escort finally got Cleary
into a dressing room and for two hours
stood guard over him while the mob
raged outside. Later the police cleared
the grounds and' Cleary, given different
outer attire to mislead the crowd, was
hurried to Wilkesbarre and placed on
an outgoing train.
PAPKE IN CHICAGO: HE
DERIDES KLAUS: AFTER GO
CHICAGO, July 19.—Billy Papke, of
Kewanee and Spring Valley, is back
home for a two months’ rest. He says
he will return to Paris in September
and that he been matched to, fight
Georges Carpentier October 22.
"I’m willing to use some of my vaca
tion fighting." said Papke. "Nothing
would suit me better than-to meet Mi-
Goorty, Morrow or Knockout Brown
some time in August. I won't need to
train much to beat a bunch like this.”
Papke also said he hoped to fight
Klaus, whom he describes as being a
tough battler, who violates most of
the rules of boxing.
“Let him fight under strictly inter
preted rules and with a competent ref
eree and he would be harmless," says
Papke.
JOHNNY KLING TO QUII
BASEBALL THIS YEAR
BOSTON, July 19.—According to a
Kansas City friend of Johnny Kling,
who is just now spending a few days
here, the once great catcher contem
plates retiring from baseball at the
end of this year. Kling is said to be
disgusted with his berth in Boston and
the hardships he has had to contend
with trying to give the Pilgrims a win
ner have hastened his desire to leave
the game.
TENNEY TO BE A BADGER.
MADISON, WIS., July 19. Parker
Tenney, star halfback of Brown univer
sity team last fall, has written to
friends here his intention of entering
the University of Wisconsin next fall.
Tenney’s home is in Sioux City, lowa,
and upon entering Brown easily made
a place on the eleven. He rapidly de
veloped into a star and scored the only
touchdown that Brown has made against
Yale in all the years that the two
teams have been playing. He will not
be able to be here next semster, but
should be a big help to the team the
following year.
