CURS OPEN
SERIES WITH
LOOKOUTS
CHATTANOOGA, TENN.. Aug. 29 I
The Crackers and Lookouts h.ook up I
today in the first game of a series that
Is likely to be replete with thrilling '
sensations. These two rivals will fight
like pennant contenders to win. And
the fact -that Billy Smith, now mana- (
ger- of the Lookouts, but who next ,
season will lead the Crackers, will be
in a hard place, will make the series
all the more interesting.
A few of the local fans believe that
Billy will pull for the Crackers. But
this is ab s urd. Smith is absolutely or
the level, and he is going to do every
thing in his power to grab a victory
for his present charges.
The series closes, Saturday, and on
Monday the Crackers return home fora
chain of games with Memphis. Nash
ville and Chattanooga nt Ponce DeLeon
park. Then they hike over to Mem
phis for a series that* winds up the 1 1
season.

back a notch also. He was at bat six

two hits. Lajoie had a pretty fair day,
too. In eight times at bat he garnered
three hits.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY. AUGUST 29. 1912.
| FODDER FOR~ FANS~~||I
Billy Evans and Jack Egan had a swell
time last Sunday afternoon. They watched
Ty Cobb umpire a semi-professional game
in Washington. Cobb got $78.15, mostly
in nickels, as his share of the gate, and
had to lug it away in a dress suit case.
• • •
A lot of folks are tumbling to the fact
that the Barons are Joke pennant winners.
H. T. McDaniel, New Orleans baseball
expert, in a recent article says in effect
that the only thing the Barons lack Is
ability to bat. field, think and run bases.
* * *
The Sally league (season ends Monday.
Labor day. with double-headers in three
towns. After that they have a post sea
son series to settle.
• • •
Part of the Athletics’ slump this year
may be attributable to overconfidence.
They had just won a world's champion
ship and everybody predicted that they
were a pennant certainty. Human nature
can’t stand too much confidence.
* * *
Brooklyn has a girl pitcher, Miss Car
rie Kilbourn. who is said to be a real
wonder. In a recent game she pitched
against the Tacony Athletic club in Phil
adelphia and let the T. A. C. batters down
with 3 hits.
• * *
Speaking of the game Hub Perdue re
cently beat the Giants, Charley Dryjlen
said "Hub worked hard enough to win
half a dozen games. His scenery could
not have been wetter it he had slept m
the Chicago river.”
* * »
They* are calling Rudy Summers the
"giant southpaw' up in Chicago now.
They are due a surprise when they see
him. For Rudy is built along the archi
tectural lines of a mosquito- very filmy,
but right there with the sting.
Billy Sullivan has been unconditionally
released by the White Sox. Next year
he will start the season by working out
young pitchers and will end it by scout
ing for the Sox.
♦ ♦ »
Mrs. Helen Hathaway Britton, owner
of the Cards, has given her side of the
row with Bresnahan. She says that Roger
has made a poor showing with good ma
terial. that his affiliations in the National
league are undesirable, that Roger has
. not been doing his best since he tried io
buy the team and failed, she doesn't like
the idea of the world's tour nor Bresna
han's malodorous alliance with McGraw.
Something to that line of reasoning,
1 too.

MURPHY BEATEN
BYBHDWNIN
HIT FIGHT
NEW York. Aug. 29. That Young
Brown, a newly risen lightweight from
the Ea»t Side, has a bright pugilistii
future in front of him was the- univer
sal verdict today of tho&e who sa,\\ him
shade Harlem T- inniv Murphy in ton
hot rounds at the St. Nicholas Athletic
Club last night. While Murphy elaim.-d
a draw, he was a badly mark <1 man at
the end of the contest.
Brown showed .surprising speed and
strength and at times had his opponent
puzzled. Boxing .experts s.iy that with
a little mole experience Brown will
make himself a prominent figure in the
lightweight world.
George Kirkwood, of St. Louis,
knocked out Tommy Houck, a I'hiladel
pliian, in the first bout of the night.
The light ended in the sixth round.
In the windup. Willie Beecher, of the
East Side. d. seal.-d Tommy Ginty. of

JOE MANDOT IS WORKING
HARD FOR RIVERS BOUT
Li >S ANGEI.ES, A’lig. 29.- Joe Man
dot. entirely recovered from a slight
Illness, put in a busy day at his train
ing camp today.
“It's a strange fact, but thit> is the
first time that I’ve over trained faith
fully for a ring contest, ’’ said Joe to a
camp friend. "In New Orleans and
Memphis I never worried about beating
an opponent in six or ten rounds, and
consequently 1 \v;is not only careless
in mx tiaining, but often I gave away
so much weight to my men that my
actions were nothing short of foolish.”
Both .Mandot and Rivers are figuring
on a short bout, each being confident of
winning. Rivers Expects to turn the
trick in ten rounds, while .Mandot is
going to make an effort to get it all
over with long before the half station
Is reached. Neither is figuring on the
scrap going the full distance.
