Draft May Cost Atlanta Club “Dug n Harbison

Yankees Said To Be After Crackers’ Star Shortstop
By W. S. Farnsworth.
WITH the closing of the
Southern league season
yesterday, it looks as
though the Atlanta club has pulled
a "bone ’ for not placing for safe
keeping with some major league
team young Mr. Douglas Harbison.
If the crack young shortstop is not
drafted. Major Callaway and his
two worthy partners, Gus Ryan and
C. T. Nunnally, may consider them
selves the luckiest trio that ever
lived.
1 have a hunch that the New
York American league team has
put in a draft for Harbison. The
club’s scout. Arthur Irwin, has re
ceived favorable reports about this
youngster, according to advices
from the Big City, and he will
probably see to It that Dug is draft
ed.
Harbison is one of the few prom
ising young players that performed
in the Southern league this year
Coming here as "green" as a burli
er ever was. he has developed Into a
Southern league star. He can cov
er any amount of ground either to
his right or left, a fair man on the
paths and a slugger who has sel
dom failed to deliver a pinch hit.
He led the Crackers In batting
with the tine average of .295, four

DILLY SMITH is in Cincinnati
attending the meeting of the
national commission. This con
vention of the High Court of
Baseball is chiefly to draft a sched
ule for the world’s series, to be fol
lowed by the opening of the drafts
of the major league clubs for minor
league players. But it Is at this
meeting that managers and owners
of nearly every club In the country
attend, and many important deals
are either put across or arranged
for a later date.
It is a cinch that Smith will be
on the lookout for players. He will
keep a sharp eye peeled for pitch
ers and an infielder. Also he will
probably grab any outfielder of
promise who may be on the mar
ket.
Here's hoping that he signs a few
Cobbs and as many Wagners.
FRENCH JOCKEY CLUB TO
FIGHT AGAINST ‘DOPING’
PARIS, Sept. 16. —With the opening
of the Longchatnps meeting yesterday,
the Jockey club inaugurated a drastic
crusade against the "doping" of horses,
alleged to be prevalent tn training es
tablishments in France. As the winner
of each race was brought in. a sample
of saliva was taken by an official of the
jockey club <and placed in a bottle,
which was sealed, the name of the horse
being Inscribed thereon. These sam
ples will be handed over to an analysis!
and the discovery of traces of drugs
will be followed by severe disciplining
of the trainer.
Those conducting racing stables have
been taken completely by surprise, no
Intimation of the proposed action of the
jockey club having been allowed to
leak. The only American horse win
ning yesterday and. therefore, having
to submit to the test was W. K. Van
derbilt's Sweetness, which captured the
Prix de Sablonville. a two-year-old
event, at 5 1-2 furlongs, worth 12,000.
HYDER BARR WILL QUIT
GAME: INJURIES CAUSE
CHATTANOOGA, TENN,, Sept. 16.
Southern league diamonds may have
seen the last of Hyder Barr, all-round
player, who has pastimed with Atlan
ta. New Orleans. Mobile, Birmingham
and Chattanooga in four years service
in the league.
Barr, who Is now the property of
New Orleans, stated to friends here
before leaving for homo that he did
not believe his muchly broken up un
derpinning would heal sufficiently to
admit of his playing ball next year,
and that he intended to spend the
whole year of 1913 on his father's farm.
Repeated injuries to Barr, which
made him practically of no value to the
local club, have had much to do with
the Lookouts’ continued slump. His
wounds took a supposedly .275 star
outfielder from the line-up and left a
battery player with a 215 mark In
stead.

Hurler Tells Why Red Sox Will Beat Giants
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 16— Joe Wood
announced today that he is
confident of winning twenty
straight games, thereby establish
ing a world's record for successive
victories. Yesterday the Boston
hurler captured bis sixteenth win
in a row when he defeated the
Browns in the second game of a
double-header, equalling Walter
Johnson’s American league record,
but which is three games shy of
Rube Marquard’s world mark.
St. Louis fans believe that Wood
will win his twenty' straight. He
appeared to be in fine fettle yes
terday. Although he gave up seven
hits in an eight-inning game
against five off Hamilton, he was
"water tight" in the pinches. He
seems to realize that to break the
record he will have to save his arm,
and he sure did nurse It yesterday.
Not once did he turn loose until
absolutely forced to do so.
"I am confident that I will win
twenty straight," said Wood today
as he strolled around in the lobby
of the Planters hotel. "All the
players on the team are fighting
for me to establish a record and,
believe me. when Speaker, Wag
ner, Hooper, Gardner. Lewis. Stahl
and all those other sluggers mean
to win a game it doesn’t matter
much how many runs the opposi
tion scores.

BOYS HIGH WILL HAVE
STRONG GRIDIRON TEAM
The Boys High school football team
has begun its regular practice, and in
dications point to a successful season.
Twenty-three men have reported, which
greatly exceeds the number in the past
few years.
With the return of Captain Fox there
will be Knox, the 1911 all-prep quarter
of Atlanta; Folsom and Holtzendorf,
guards; LeConte and Daley, tackles;
Rosser, center, and Reynolds, substi
tute.
The greatest loss will be felt in the
absence of Charley Thompson, the all
prep Georgia half, and captain of last
year’s team. Snyder and
Wright will also be among the missing
ones. However, the new recruits, es
pecially those trying for end, look so
promising that there will be no cause
for worry. The team, contrary’ to the
past, will have a good set of substi
tutes.
Riverside, G. M. R.. Griffin. Peacock
and Stone Mountain will be some of
the teams that B. H. S. will play.
CUBS AND PIRATES IN
HOT FIGHT FOR 2D PLACE
NEW YORK. Sept. 16.—With the
Giants maintaining their tight grip on
first place in the National league at the
beginning of the last fortnight of play,
interest shifts to the fight between Chi
cago and Pittsburg for second place.
Today found the Cubs but one game
and a half ahead of the Pirates, while
the latter are apparently in the midst
of one of their best rallies this season.
The Cubs are playing against the
Giants today. The Pirates had the
Trolley Dodgers for opponents at Wash
ington park, Brooklyn. This made New
York the seat of baseball interest, as
the first three teams In the league were
here to play.
The Red Sox. of the American league,
are in the same position of confidence
occupied by the Giants in the National.
Scouts are here from Boston getting a
line on the Giants for the world’s cham

Asked w'hat he .thought about

a mighty good lot of dope:
“Boston should beat the Giants.
We have a much better defense.

the New York corps. I expect to
