"The Georgia Team Must Be Rebuilt,” Says Coach Cunningham
ATHENS PROSPECTS FAIR, BUT NOT BEST EVER

a football team are these, ac
cording to the views of Coach W
A Cunningham. head coach of the
University of Georgia teams
1, College men are prone to say
they will not return and then to

will be few changes from this list.
it couldn’t be said that the pros
pects of the Georgia team, on the
strength of the showing indicated,
are the best in the world. A team
that loses seven men and returns
six will virtually have to be rebuilt.
Also the losS of Woodruff will be
more severe than the average spec
tator at tiie average game realizes.
It is largely up to Coach Cun
ningham. And as he has demon
strated that he is a wizard at the
coaching game there is little doubt
but that lie will turn out a team
that will give a wonderfully gaud

u Man Behind the Bat” Has Put Red Sox on Top
Bill Carrigan Brains of Boston’s Pennant Winner
B\ W. J. Mcßeth.
The Man Behind the Bat" has
won the American league pennant
for Boston. Just as the "Man Be
hind the Gun" won the Spanish
war so: Uncle Sam Os course it I’
assumed that the pennant IS won
—it Is beyond a reasonable doubt.
When the war was over and the
admirals and gene al received the
plaudits, a certain distinguished
citizen said It was not the admirals
or the generals who deserved them,
but the "Man Behind the Gun."
And the "Man Behind the Gun" be
came the hero So neither the
leaders nor the sta’s, but the "Man
Behind the Bat” ha's won the pen
nant for the Red Sox
The "Man Behind the Bat" is
"Fighting Rill” Carrigan
Why Carrigan Is a Hero.
These arc the reasons why
"Fighting Bill" Carrigan is the
greatest he o of them all:
1. He has trained and is the boss
of the most efficient pitching corps
I in tl>e world.
2. He is the schemer, the dic
tator and the master of the Red
Sox defensive play.
3. He is one of the schemers
and the dictators and the mas
ters of the Red Sox offensive play.
4. His are the "inside baseball”
brains of the coming pennant win
ners.

Ask any Red Sox player who is
the most valuable and impo’tant in

answer, without hesitation—sur

Crackers Mingle With Billy Smith’s Lookouts on Monday
VOLS BID FAREWELL TO ATLANTA FANS TODAV
1 -
rpHE last Saturday game of the
Southern league season is
on this afternoon at Ponce
DeLeon. In this game the cohorts
of Manager Schwartz, of Nash
ville, will hook up with the luck
less Crackers. Owing to the fact
that the Volunteers have a slight
bickering set for Sunday afternoon
at Memphis, the game will be
blessed (or cursed, as you happen
to view it) with an early start.
Then, after a day of rest. Bill
Smith will lead his Lookout club
here for the final series of the year
in Atlanta.
It may not be so much of a se
ries in a baseball way. since it will
while the Red Sox of 1911 fifth?
There are several reasons', such
as the return to form of Heinie
Wagner, the appointment of Jake
Stahl as manager, and the SUC
CESS OF THE PITCHERS. But
the principal reason is Carrigan,
and Carrigan is deeply associated
with all the other reasons, partic
ularly the success of the pitchers.
T|ve improvement this year is in
a better regulated offense, but
more than that in a superb defense.
The greatest factor of the defense
is the pitching staff. To repeat—
me Red Sox have the most efficient
pitching staff in the world. Who
di j it ? Bill Carrigan
A dozen would-be pitchers re
ported to the Red Sox this spring,
including those who were on last
season's roster Carrigan took
them in hand. He taught them
now to make the best use of their
abilities and schooled them in all
the fine arts of baseball —for Carri
gan is a master of the game.
There were no Walter Johnsons,
Ed Walshes and Christy Mathew
sons or any other stars to start,
with. Rut today Wood, Collins.
Bedient and Hall are winning a
greater percentage of their games
than any of the famous stars.
Wood, in fact, has become a star.
He ha« won a greater percentage
of games than any other pitcher of
191’2. Ami the others will be stars.
So much so- the pitchers. But
Carrigan, with Wagner, signals
the defensive tactics of the team.
Concerted action is necessary, and
the concerted action has to be dic
tated by a man on the field. Car
rigan has a survey of all the field
and all the bases in front of him
and he knows what to do. The
others watch Carrigan.
A Master of “Inside” Ball.
No team can win a pennant with
out what is known as “inside”
baseball. Cariigan is the chief "in
side" baseball man of the Red Sox
! He has educated every member of
the team individually, as well as
collectively, too. and they l;ave con
fidence in him.
As a backstop on tile held. Car
rigan is a marvel He is far from
fast. No catchers are speedy after
a few years of service behind the
bat In the strenuous big league
campaigns Theii : igid posture
takes the limberness out of theii
muse 's. ah o f the veterans are
slow, compared with the other play
ers. Hut Carrigan blocks off the
home plate like a stone wall. He is
tenacious When a runner dives
into the plate, Carrigan stands like
a lock. He is usually bowled over,
but he does not drop th, ball, and'
the runner Is out. He is absolutely
without fear The runner must
beat the ba I. to beat Cariigan.

mark the clashing of the two worst
teams (or the "worst two,” if that
lets them down any more gently) in
the league.
But it means the return of Billy
Smith to Atlanta for the first time
since it has been announced that
he has closed to manage the Crack
er club for the next two years.
You all know what that means.

Swell Performance Yesterday.
Sometimes diamond artists play
ball to win pennants, sometimes to
earn their salaries and sometimes,
though rarely, for the sheer joy of
the playing.
It was in the last named classi
fication that the performance
pulled off by the Nashville and At
lanta players yesterday belongs.
The players went into the game
as happy as a bunch of school boys
and they put a performance to
their credit that wouldn’t have
looked bad in a world’s series.
Probably because nothing mat
tered —winning, losing, tying or
postponing—they played their best.
There was a slap and dash to the
whole thing that was as refreshing
as a drink of water.
It happened that Nashville won.
But that wasn't the main point.
Neither team has more to lose or
less to win than a hobo. How the
thing ultimately turned out didn't
cut any figure. They were out to
play ball and what came of it was
immaterial. They did play ball,
too—and Nashville won, 1 to 0.

in Nashville, he let one run get
over in the first inning. And then
he lost the game 1 to 0, despite the
fact that Atlanta made more hits
than the A’olunteers. It may also
be recalled that Fleharty furnished
the opposition that day.
Yesterday’s game was an exact
duplicate. Fleharty and Waldorf
were the opposing pitchers. ' In the
first inning the Volunteers scored
a tally. Considered tn the light of
recent games, that one run didn't
look any bigger than a gnat at an
elephant show. But gradually, as
inning after inning passed and
there was no more scoring. It grew
in relative size until in the ninth
it was as big as the moon.
How Only Run Was Scored.
The way this one run was made
was thusly: In the first inning
the irrepressible Jud Daley bit off
a single, right off the bat as it
were. Lattimore died in a good
cause and J. Daley went forward a
peg. Welchonce hit one to Wal
dorf and was retired at first, but
on the putout Daley advanced once
more. Then came that decrepit
veteran. Colonel Clayton Perry,
who delivered a single and pushed
across the (leciding tally.
All the rest of the afternoon
■ there was rip-roaring baseball, but
neither side could score.
Waldorf, the most profusely ex
ecrated of Atlanta's pitchers, really
hurled great ball. The gusty young
right-hander made no mistakes
after the first inning. The Vols
were in the hollow of his hand.
But they had with them their one
run and they didn't need any mote.
Fleharty also pitched masterly
ball. He got in ;■ few tolerably
tight holes, but he didn’t stay there.
Somehow he always managed to
wriggle out, due in several cases
to useful fielding by his supporting
cast.
At Pittsburg the other day it took four
lops to throw out an obstreperous bleat 1
er fan. As he went, somebody yellea.
Each of them bluecoats will be credited
with an assist and the man who is up in
the pinch will get a put-out."
