The Idea always has heen that $2,000 would be a big price for a whole Tri-State team. Jesse Tannehill has passed up the job of a scout, side-stepped a couple of um piring offers and hooked up with the Chil licothe team as manager. • • • St. Paul, one of the greatest right-and left buyers In the business, has just latched onto Outfielder Ray Thomas and Pitcher Bob Foulk, of the Cubs. • • • Some big league players get “covered up" without ever leaving the team. The Cubs got a chap named Cotter from Phila delphia and so far he has caught one in ning this season and been twice at bat. • • • Cincinnati can hardly wait to get Rafael Almeida back on the Red team. They say his one fault last year was laziness and opine that he has overcome that fault now. • • • Cy Young says that all the really great ball players come from the country. For instance. Cub Heinie Zimmerman, of the Bronx. * « • The last Tri-State batting averages show the following figures: Kerr .289, Philhin .212 and Miller .332. • • * Krause has won eight straight games for Toledo. • * • George Stallings is out with a denial that he will manage the Dodgers next year—not that anybody' in particular said he would- George expects to be back in Buffalo. • • • The fund for Manager Ganzel’s auto mobile now amounts to $292.

His team played a couple of games with the Mc- Graws in the spring and picked up about all they know about base stealing then. A lot of papers would be hard put to it for baseball notes if The Georgian some day happened to miss the mails. • • • Bobby' Byrne has been forced to visit the famous bonesetting emporium at Youngs town to have his ribs looked after. •• • ■ Meridian is sore at Walter Hirsch.

Now Meridian • • » 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 for Pitcher Nicholson, of the defunct 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.
