Draft May Cost Atlanta Club “Dug” 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 trto that ever
lived.
I have a hunch that the New
York American league team has
put in a draft for Harbison. The
club’s sc'out, Arthur Irwin, has re
ceived favorable reports about this
youngster, according to advices
from the Rig City, and he will
probably see to it that Dug 1s draft

Harbison Is one of the few prom
ising young players that performed
in the Southern league this year.
Coming here as "green" as a busti
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 fine average of .295, four

other, and Atlanta, with a cellar
outfit, is the third.
So Atlanta fans are sure due a
winner next year for their loyalty.
And Messrs. Callaway, Ryan and
Nunnally are going to do all In
their power to give them a first
division club. They will give Billy
Smith free rein and all the money
he needs. And Smith’s record in
Atlanta assures us that we will see
a team at Poncy next season that
will give us a run foe our money.
gILLY 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 J‘ 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 inflelder. 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 Longehamps meeting yesterday,
the Jockey club inaugurated a drastic
crusade against the "doping" of horses,
alleged Jo be prevalent in 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 6 1-2 furlongs, worth $2,000.
HYDER BARR WILL QUIT
GAME: INJURIES CAUSE
CHATTANOOGA, TENN.. Sept. 16.
Southern league diamonds may have
seen the last of Hyder Barr, ali-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 home 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 th«
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.

MURPHY NOT TO ATTEND
PENN'S FOOTBALL START
PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 16.—1 tis
feared that for the fust time in a good
many years the University of* Penn
sylvania football coaches will have to
conduct their preliminary practice
without the services of Mike Murphy,
the veteran trainer. Murphy has not
returned to the city from his summer
home on Massachusetts farm, and un
less he tmanges a decision he made
when he sailed for this country after
coaching the American Olympic team
he will not appear at Franklin Field be
fore October 1.
Prospects for this year’s team do not
continue to improve in advance of be
ginning regular practice. Captain Mer
cer is pleased over the announcement
that W. J. Hough, who was not in col
lege last year, will return for post
graduate work in architecure. and. if
possible, will be a candidate for the
back field. Hough was a substitute
half back two years ago and displayed
wonderful speed, but he has a tendency
to be easily hurt and at best can not
be counted upon as a regular.
(YALE MAN FAST WHIPPED
CORNELLIANS INTO SHAPE
ITHACA. N. Y., Sept IK. -With about
tiftv candidates on the field, the first week
of fotoball practice at Cornell closed amid
scenes of marked activity. Al Sharpe,
the Yale man who assumed charge of the
eotching system this fall, already has or
ganized his squad. The practice has
made a most favorable impression with
1 his businesslike, hustling and enterprising
methods.
While all of last year's players eligi
ble have not returned yet, it is expected
that the beginning of next week will
find them out on the field. The material
is at least of average caliber as Cornell
teams go. Sharpe has the advantage of
having the following old men available
for this year's team: Eyrich and Fritz,
ends; Champaign, right tackle; Means,
left guard: Whyte, center; Butler, quar
terback; O’Connor and Whyte, left half

Wood Equals Johnson’s Mark; Is After 20 in Row
Hurler Tells Why Red Sox Will Beat Giants
ST. LOUIS, Sept. I«.—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 his 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 oft 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

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 Cox 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. McDougal. 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 Wils 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 scat of baseball interest, as
the first three teams in the league were
here to play.

ago and warned me not to injure
my arm in trying for twenty
straight, as he wants me on edge
for the world’s series. I assured
him that I would lose all the rest
of the American league games this
season if necessary to save the old
salary whip.
"But take It from me, I am going
to win my twenty straight. The
boys behind me will see to that.
Every one of them is pulling his
hardest for me. And what a bunch
of fighters for me to have with me

the world's series, Wood came
across with the following, which is

"Boston should beat the Giants.
We have a much better defense.

the New York corps. I expect to
