Rath Does Not Get Due Credit;
Lack of Weight His Handicap
By R. W. Gardner.
NE7W YORK. Aug. 28. Morris
Rath, Jimmy Callahan's
second baseman, appears to
be doomed to go through his base
ball career without recognition as
a star, and this despite the fact
that he is one of the steadiest ball
players in the American league.
RaSh is referred to by his mates
as the brains of the White Sox in
field. Thia title was given him by-
Matty Mclntyre In a spirit of kid
ding. and yet It Is anything but un
deserved Morris is probably no
smarter than either of the Sox
third bssemeji. Ixjrd and Zeider.
and he is usually so quiet that his
bea(rt*ork goes unnoticed. He sel
dom is guilty of a foolish play, and
his "noodle" is so well thought of
by the manager that he is often
entrusted with the .job of signing
for wiM*e pitches, and throws with
runners on.
Reaches First Oftsn.
In she International league last
season Rath hit well over 300 In
fiset, Ms figrnre was closer to 400.
Hls extra bsee clouts were few and
far bevwvan and his record of
stolen bases was nothing to boost
of. At, present lie Is a few points
below iftOO, hut be has the happy
habit at reaching first base oftener
than any one else on the team He
is a hard man to pitch to, a man
who seldom swings at bad balls.
Rath is shy of bodily strength
•nd ability'to steal his way around
the paths Otherwise, he is a
mighty good ball player and a man
who own be depended on to liold up
Ms rmt offensively and defen
sively.

whom we have seen. Morris can go
from the plate to first base much
more speedily than from first to
second, or second to third. It Is
difficult to account for that fact,
but it accounts for his slim
total of thefts. He probably can
beat Zeider to first by several steps,
but he isn't in Rollle’s class in
sprints between other bases.
Ten Pounds Would Help.
He would be delighted If lau
pounds or more would consent to
add themselves to his present
weight. He figures that this would
give him more clouting strength
an<J make him almost 50 per cent
more valuable.
The other day In Washington,
when the Sox figured that Walter
Johnson was going to pitch, they
were guying Morris about his com
plaining of a gore ankle. He really
was lame, but the others professed
to believe that he wanted to lay off
a day and thus avoid the unpleas
ant Job of facing the holy terror.
"There’s no chance for me to lay
off," retorted Rath, "because there
isn’t any one else who can play my
position. 1 could have pneumonia
and still would be obliged to work.
Besides, Til bet that I'll hit John
son Just as well as any of the rest
of you."
Gets Only Hit Off Johnson,
Morris went them one better.
Johnson allowed one hit and Rath
got it So he had the laugh on his
helpless pals.
Rath has no weakness as a sec
ond baseman His throwing is next
to perfect, he covers plenty of
ground and tags runners as well as
the next one. But just those two
things, Inability to hit for extra
bases and inability to steal, pre
vent hie being hailed as a star or
even rated at his real value.

Jordan Doesn’t Want the Chattanooga Management—He Says So Himself
SMITH WAS WISE NOT TO REPORT HERE SEPT. 2
By Percy 11. Whiting.
rTrtHE Crackers are now plugging
i along through their semi
final road trip of the season.
This afternoon they open in Mont
gomery to play a postponed game
with the Tribe of Dobb. Then they
have regular contests there Sat
urday and Sunday. After these
games are out of the way they open
In Nashville for a queer little two
game series with the Vols. The
trip ends wdth three games in Chat
tanooga.
The next home game comes the
first Monday in September, the
same being l.abor day. This starts
a series of ten games, which will
be played in ten days, with a dou
ble-header on l.abor day and wdth
one Sunday with no game.
On September 13 the Crackers of
1912 set out on their last road
Jaunt. It Is to Memphis, and there
the Crackers will play n three
game series and break up. A few
of the local players will return
to Atlanta to winter. Most of
them will beat it to their own
homes.
• • •
i■> ROM New- Orleans they are
* quoting Otto Jordan as ex
pressing small desire for the Chat
tanooga management next year—
and giving his reasons. This is
what Otto says:
"Once is enough. Never again
for me," he answered when ques
tioned.
“What’s the matter don't you
like managing?" queried a friend.
“It's not that at all," answered
the Chattanooga field captain. "I
think 1 can do all O. K. with prop
er support, but I'll never succeed
Billy Smith again. He’s a good
pal of mine, but 1 wouldn't take
his Job."
"Well, it would be all right if he
went somewhere else and left the
Chattanooga job open," insisted the
friend.
“That's what they said at Atlan
ta.” answered Jordan. "It was all
right with Bill, but not with the
people. They wanted him and my
taking that job cost me a good
many friends, very good friends.
And I certainly don't want that to
happen again. If 1 get another
chance at managing it will be to go
to another team. I don’t want ever
to be promoted from the ranks
and succeed a manager In the same
town as 1 did Smith at Atlanta."
Wise old Otto. He knows his
business.
• • •
q PEAKING of that, so does Rill
Smith They wanted Bill to
Come over to Atlanta and take hold
September 2. Doubtless it could
have been arranged, but it wasn't
Bill was too wise.
(if course Bill might have come
to Atlanta, gingered up the shat
tered remains of the Calamity of
1912 and managed to win some
games before tile season ended. But
the chances were all against him.
The Hemphill-Alperman wreck is
too far gone It has the losing habit.
An opium eater in the last stages
is no more wedded to the drug than
are the locals to the idea of toss
ing off one game a day regularly
and two on double-header days.
If Smith had come over in Sep
tember he would have been given
a tousing welcome but if the team
had lost 13 out of 15 games his
popularity would have begun with
ering.
As It is Smith will wait until
1913 Then he will open up. not
with what is left of tile Hemp
hill misfits, but with a team of his
own picking Bill lias finished tn

QHATTANOOGA papers are quot
ing O. B. Andrews, president
of the Chattanooga club, in sting
ing interviews, denouncing Bill
Smith for saying that he w’as go
ing to buy Otto Jordan for use In
Atlanta next year. Andrews claims
that he wouldn’t sell Jordan under
any circumstances.
Os course this is a typical An
drews interview’. As a matter of
fact, Atlanta papers started the
idea that Jordan would come back,
and all Bill Smith ever said for
publication on the subject was that
if Jordan was for sale he would
buy him.
It can probably’ be taken for
granted that Bill knows the base
ball rules and customs fully as w’ell
as Mr. Andrews.
It Is also a corking guess that
Otto Jordan will be back in Atlanta
next season. He wants to come
back so bad It hurts him, and w’hat
Otto wants he usually gets—bar
ring pennants.

Fascination of Golf Stronger
Than That in Any Other Sport
By H. N. H. Woodcock.
IT Is only comparatively recently
that golf has been boomed, as it
were, yet It Is now played In
every country of the civilized world.
New links are being started every
day. “Scratch" players no longer
have the entre of exclusive circles
in society without the qualifications
to back up their prowess at the
game, owing to the vast numbers
that have achieved success at this
most fascinating and attractive
sport.
The golfer only wants the slight
est possible excuse to neglect busi
ness and home ties to fly off to his
favorite course and forget every
thing except how he is to get his
handicap reduced or improve his
previous low score of the links, but
the unfortunate individual who is
not a golfer and has not played
the game—perhaps only seen It
once—can not see the attraction In
it whatever; thinks it is an old
man’s game, and would probably
heartily agree with the Oxford tu
tor w ho said it was a game of "put
ting little balls into little holes with
instruments ill adapted for the pur
pose.”
Golf Leads Them All.
Ask any man who has achieved
moderate proficiency at many
games and has then taken up golf,
which he enjoys playing the most
of them all, and the answer is al
ways the same—golf. What is the
charm of the game? It is the
never-ending variety for all classes
of players, from bad to amateur
champion.
Providence is kind to beginners
and often a man will play a bet
ter game after 30 days experience
than he can after a year’s, w’hich is
fortunate, as many a fine golfer
would have given up in disgust had
he known of the bad times he had
before him when he was off his
game and nothing would go right
for him.
Fourteen Years All Too Short.
In Scotland, they tell you it takes
fourteen years to make a golfer,
depressing news no one believes,
each one thinking he or she is the
“Teat exception until after playing
about ten years, when serious
doubts arise as Lo whether the time
allowed was nearly’ long enough.
But no matter how badly a man
may play, somewhere during the
round of eighteen holes he will
make at least one shot that is a
sufficient compensation for all his
other misdeeds and which will fill
him with enthusiasm and hope.
A well played shot at any game
always gives the player a feeling
of satisfaction and comfort, but a
perfectly executed shot at golf—
say a drive which keeps rather low
to begin with yet high enough to
carry the bunker ahead, then gain
ing impetus and height is seen
silhouted against the sky for a mo
ment and is afterwards found in the
center of the course 300 yards from
where it was driven—gives the
player a most pleasurable sensa
tion.
Prouder Than a Star.
In fact, it is doubtful if a more
or less prosaic golfer who has
brought off such a shot to his en
tire satisfaction would exchange
feelings with an operatic artist re
ceiving the plaudits of a capacity
house.
Golf is the most sociable of games.
A very garrulous player is a nui
sance, but in between shots much
can be said—to he distinguished
from what is •mid immediately after
an injudicious stroke —and delight
ful friendships ran be made and
renewed during the day's play
Memory a Pleasure.
y round that ha- vanquished a
hettei player or low.j ml the re. ord
fi>i the eoutse. can b< remembned
stroke by’ stroke for years after
ward. Therefore over a quiet smoke
many’ exchanges of experiences take
place in the club house after the
day’s games are over.
This is the time of the year to
which golfers of all grades look
forward with great longing, though
perhaps the beginner gets the most
fun of them all. Now is the time
of the golfing holiday—golf every
day’ and all day’. Perhaps the be
ginner has only’ played w’eek-ends
up to now. Having the daily golf
he will improve so rapidly that on
hls return to his own course he
can reckon his averages by’ s’s in
stead of 6’s.
And Now He Plays It.
His tee shots have become more
or less mechanical. Instead of each
one being a separate adventure to
which the end was pure guesswork,
