Sept. 21.—With the 5 York Athletic club winner of the i , ior championship over the Irish \ i iean Athletic club of New York b\ i ne point in the two-day athletic , nival which is being; held at Forbes fi. •!. the senior A. A. (’. events today were expected to furnish the keenest < .iggles between three rivals that A riean athletes have seen in many a day. With the fight in prospect, prepara ti n- were made at Forbes field for ■ ing a crowd of nearly 10,000. Al ii. ugh the early morning weather was <■,< j .. the indications were that the sun i!d blaze forth before noon and dis- ■ the mist. There was a light wind the athletes declared themselves as e . i-ticd with the prevailing conditions. While but one flew record was hung up in the junior events, a number of ones were qualed. and. with perfect w. it her and track conditions today, it was onfidently believed that the rival ry between the Irish-American and \ . York Athletic clubs would be i.reductive of new high marks in more tii.in one branch of the games. The Summaries. T'O cards dash final heat won bv R. Carroll, Pittsburg A. C.: second, F, K. , -.w.iv.

Isn't it worth while to you? But when coal goes up. it often jumps to a dollar -or more per ton higher than the present price. And if.a bliz zard strikes coal is apt to go several dollars higher. But a strike is the .worst price raiser of all. You doubt ! less remember. The moral is, buy coal when it’s low; burn it when the price is high. Telephone orders receive prompt at- ■ i tention.

WENT, up to see Billy Smith yesterday. Never had met him before, but consider him one of my best friends now. Fact is, thought I had known him all my life five minutes after I-had been introduced by President Callaway. Put out my trusty right to mitt him and, well haven’t got the fin gers pried apart yet. Billy has such a taking way when he shakes bands. Thought mine was being squashed to a mass of jelly as he put a strangle hold on it. "Glad (ouch!) to meet (ouch!) you (ouch!). Mr. Smith,'' I said be tween twangs of pain that made me think the fingers were being amputated. THE BASEBALL CARD. AMERICAN LEAGUE. • Games Today. Washington in Chicago, Philadelphia in St. Louis.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN Then 1 sat down and began to listen —excuse me. 1 mean began to ask, Billy 'Smith questions. He never jabbers unless asked ques tions. He is as silent as a Provi dence Bay little neck. "Suppose you are glad to get back to Atlanta." was my first lead. (AH this time my right hand was under the chair, the fingers glued together an though they were one and all.) "You bet,” he said. "Think Atlanta will be up in the race next year?” • "Iktpe so." "Made any plans yet?” “Nope,” And that is all Billy had to sa.<' about the team. Fact of the matter is, Smith IT’S BACK TO POUNDING SIDEWALKS' FOR KUBIAK PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 21.—Al Ku biak. the heavyweight who resigned from tlie local police force to re-enter the prize ring, will probably have to return to his nightstick, for he lias failed to "come back." Gunboat Slnith outpointed Kubiak in a six-round go last night, although the Michigan giant had the advantage of 25 pounds in weight. GEORGIAN TERRACE BARBER SHOP NOW RUN BY A. VARENA A. VARENA. A. Varena, the popular barber, who has been a resident of Atlanta for many years, and who has for the past several years operated the barber shop in tlie Rhodes building, where he ha - built up a splendid business, has pur chased the shop in the Georgian Ter race hotel, which he will operate in connection with his other, place.

SAVANNAH CAN SECURE BIG CUP RACE NEXT YEAR SA\ ANN.\H. GA.. Sept. 21. That Su vannah can secure the (hand Prize and Vanderbilt cup races in 1913, if the city desires to stage these great automobile events again, is the opinion of llarvey Granger, of the Savannah Automobile chib, wlio lias just returned from New York, where he was in touch witli of ficials of the Automobile Club of America and ot tlie America’, Automobile associa tion. Granger bases his statement on Hie fact that Milwaukee has fallen down in her effort to pull off the races on scheduled time, whereas, on the three occasions that the Klees have been run here, everything was ready on the minute. The result, he says, is that Savannah is being talked of all over the country as the only place in the country where these events can be properly staged. 2-GEOREUNS ON I«KS' INFIELD NEXT YEAR Yon may lyok for two native Geor gians starring in the Yankees' infield next year, for Harry Wolverton has just turned a trade by .which he se eured Claude Dei rick, the old Univer sity of Georgia star, from Detroit. Tommy McMillan, who scintillated at Tech just before Derrick began to shine at Athens, has cinched his place at shortston for the Yankees, arid those wiio know of Derrick's ability when given a real test are pretty sure that he will win a regular place, very likely at second base, bls natural position. Derrick was substitute infielder for the Athletics for several years up to the middle-of August. He never had a chance to supplant Eddie Collins or .Tmk Bauv. but did fairlv well as a substitute for them. Connie Mack is said to have thought very hnthly of the boy's future, and it was with reluc tance that he let him iro to Baltimore last month in the desperate effort to strengthen the Athletics’, outfield by the addition of new talent. Derrick lias been burning 'em up in the International league, batting heav ily and fielding well, and was gobbled up in the draft by Detroit. Jennings yesterday swapped him to New York for Catcher McKee. 7
