JACKETS SHOULD HAVE HOT NINE NEOT \!ons with the better hopes of a good football team at Tech, there also mines most encouraging news in re 'ai-d to the baseball prospects for next spring.

Cobb went to bat three times yester- . day and secured one hit. Jackson was ' up four times and banged out two safe i swats. Lajoie secured one hit in three attempts. Speaker and Collins "stood still," as neither the Red Sox nor Ath letics played. [baseball] Diamond News and Gossip Birmingham, with all its proud boast \ Pennant winner, with its daily band concert, and with a team that continues to win. even after the pen rant has been cinched, is drawing wretch edly. Birmingham papers say that on -Thursday there were hardly enough peo ple present to pay the guarantee. • « * Manager Birmingham, of the \ap team, is using tnree recruits regularly in his iine-up. One of them is Jimmy Johnston, who seems to be making good. One thing about the Atlanta team: It hasn 1 slumped in a long time. There's a reason. * » ♦ Ban Johnson has roundecL up another umpire -Eugene McGreevey. Fie won his umpiiing reputation on the Pacific coast. • f » Louis Ccmiskey, son of Charley Comis key. has been forced to go tu a sanitarium to reduce weight He has cut down his excess at the rate of a pound a day for a month. He is now down to 355 pounds. * * * Phis season has been one of the hardest in years for the old stars. Look at those who have quit playing In the big leagues: Fred Falkenberg, Ed Summers. Bill Dono van, Cy Young. Frank Smith. Leftie Rus sell. Dixie Walker, Billy Sullivan. Paddy Livingston. Gabby Stieet, Nig Glarke, Fred Clarke. Frank Chance, Fred Tenney, Harry Davis. Jim Delhhanty, Charley O’Leary. Kid Elberfeld, .lack Knight. Doc Gessler, Danny Hoffman. Lee Tannehill— mighty men. all. in their dav; but now on the decline • • 4 Big Jack Pfeifer has found himself in the New England league. He has won seven and lost two for Lowell • * • Catcher Paddy Livingston has busted a finger and is out for the rest of the sea son . « * * Jack Chesbro, whose attempt to come back was the subiect of a lot of press work this spring, didn't make a success of it. The other day in Pittsfield. Mass., when trying to pilch for the North Adams club, he was knocked out of the box. » * * There are a lot of Mansers left in base ball—but the number has been reduced by on**. Bill, who has been playing in the Virginia league, has had enough and has retired for good. He has two broth ers who are still playing. * * * Bob Groome has been taking the num ber of a lot < f good batters this year— among them Cobb, Crawford and Collins. He is reputed to have a break to his spit ball the like of which can not be dupli cated by an\ pitcher in either big league. * e ♦ In Pittsburg they are trying to stir up enthusiasm in a post season series be tween the Pirates and the Washington club- ♦ • • The York and Harrisburg teams re entlj played a full nine-inning game in s nrty-eight minutes. That’s sash no • c übt. but doesn't in the least endanger il ♦ world’s record held by Atlanta. w ♦ ♦ A Memphis baseball writer refers to our justly celebrated ball club as the Cracked Crackers of Crackerville. A raw crack, we call it. • ♦ ♦ Billy Hopper, who looked so good with Memphis early this season, but who was sent to New Haven, has proved a win ning pitcher there, and will probably be 1 ecalled. * * ♦ Charles L. Herzog, of the Giants, will enter the agricultural school at Cornell this winter. No, he will not be eligible to play on the ball club. At least, five rich men "want in” on a major league baseball franchise. They are Charles IVeeghman. who made a keg of money on a string of restaurants; James McGill, heir of "Pittsburg Phil;" Harry Frazee, of New York and Chicago, and Ed tvilbern and Jeff Livingston, who recently tried to buy in on the Brooklyn franchise. • » • The movement to do away with the irtentional passing of a batter is making rapid progress. Inmates of several lunatic asylums neartilj favor it. As soon as this great reform is accomplished the de fenders of true sportsmanship will move for the abolishment of the curved ball, which is said to give the pitcher a con temptible advantage over some batters. 'Rah for reform. • ♦ • The Toronto and Rochester teams, which furnished most of the pace in the Inter national league, are made up of big league discards. They're great things, these dis cards. Look what they did for Atlanta. • • • Bill Friel, Columbus manager, is out with a kick on double-headers. Some sense to it. too. They are hard alike on ball players and on attendance • • • Last year Rube Marquard put more strike-outs to bis credit than he allowed hits. This year he hasn't. Which shows that he is slowly acquiring sense. * « • Fred Clarke has won a regular wardrobe of clothes on his various bets that he would not appear in the Pirates line-up. w • • “Well, anyway." says Hub Perdue, of the much-whacked Boston club, "a lot of fans have quite giving three cheers when we arrive for a series." * * ■ Armour.

BURNS PICKED TO BEAT HOGAN ON COAST TODAY SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 9.—Frankie Burns of Oakland,, and "One-Round" Hogan, of San Francisco, meet in a twenty-round bout at the Eighth street arena this afternoon.

Sept 9. —Football practice will begin at Mercer tomor row. Dr. Stroud has not returned from his home in California, but is expected i-n a few days, while Captain Norman is here and will start the men in at ligii; ; work. The piospects for this year are any-j thing but bright, with the loss of five of last year’s best men. Three of these graduated—Grice, center: Zellars. quai ter. and Conger, guard. Foxworth, half, and Cook, end, will not return. I’he meh returning are: Heinsohn. center; Huguley, guard; Mills and Kelley, tackles; Forrester, end: Irwin, half, and Captain Norman, full. Ko - ley. Mills and Norman are the only men that have had much experience, and it is’ mostly on these that the Orange and Black supporters must rely. The others, while for the most part good men, are inexperienced. Mercer can not count much on the new men. Os these, however, Holman, who played center at Norman Park, looks pretty good. (.Trice, a brother of last years eente . will also be out for the team, but he is young* and knows practically nothing of the game. This bunch does not look very prom ising. but it is hoped that Dr. Stroud can build a machine that will be abl.e to hold its own. EVANS DEFEATS HILTON FOR LOW MEDAL SCORE CHICAGO GOLF CLUB WHEAT ON. ILL., Sept. 9.—-Charles Evans, Jr., of Edgewater, defeated Harold Hilton, of the Royal Liverpool Golf club, three up in the play off of the tie for the low qualifying medal in the national cham pionship.
