MEET TINKER
IF "ZINI" HOLDS
DOWN SHORT
By Bill Bailey.
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.—ls Joe Tink
er, shortstop of the Cubs,
can convince President Mur
; ,y and Manager John Evers that
H- ine Zimmerman will make good
at short he probably will be al
owed to go to Cincinnati as man
ager of the Reds.
And if he fails it is by no means
ertain that Joe will be allowed to
eave the West Side team.
That seems to be the status of
the case of Tinker on this day and
date. The angle is this:
If Tinker leaves the Cubs it will
be necessary for them to have a
shortstop. Neither Grant ,rior
Phelon, two of the infielders of
fered by the Reds in the trade, are
short fielders. It’s true that Grant
t ayed at short for awhile last‘sea
son. But the two are third base
men Should Tinker leave "there
would be more than enough of
third basemen. But no shortstops.
Which is responsible for Tinker's (
determination to make one of Zim
merman. You see, if they placed
Heine at short and either Grant or
Phelon at third the West Side-in—-
field would be complete. And Joe
could be on his way.
Says Heine Can Play Short.
Tinker says that the big German
ran play short. It’s to Joe’s inter
est to entertain such a belief. And
the more eloquent he becomes In
defending the theory the better are
his chances of going to Cincinnati
as-a boss. But Joe is right there
with a lot of arguments to support
his theory and therefore is entitled
to a hearing.
‘ This big German can play any
place on the infield,” says Joe. "He
started out a second baseman. He
is a good second baseman. There
are mighty few better second sack
ers in the business than Heine. He
simply got on a club where they
had one of the few better ones.
Otherwise Heine would have been
a star years ago.
"He has a great arm and would
throw them out from deep short
just as easily as he does from third.
Above all things, he would have
Evers working by his side. Johnny
would coach him and have him
playing just right for the various
batters. There is no reason to sup
pose that Heine would not hit as
well at short as he does at third.”

McDonald, one of the most famous
trainers of light harness horses on the

Nashville, tenn., Nov. 6.
With the Vanderbilt pri

dore players a mere mass of com
minutions, bruises and punctures,
the Gridiron Hopes of Dixie sail
tonight via the L. & N. for Cam

Saturday afternoon the patched
up Nashville team takes on Har
vard—and worse than that, the
best team Harvard ever had and
the team that is virtually certain
to win the football championship of
the country.
Yesterday afternoon Dudley field
was festooned with crape as one
after another of the cripples hob
bled out—or sent out their “re
grets.” The terrible affair with
Virginia left them bruised and
battered. Shipp, the big tackle,
sustained an injury to his ankle
that will in all probability keep
him from getting into a football
suit until he enters the game Sat
urday. Sikes, the flashy back, was
not even on the field yesterday
afternoon, being still confined to
his room. Wilson Collins was
called to his home, in Pulaski on
account of the very serious illness
of his father, and it is nbt at all
sure that he will accompany the
team.
Too Crippled to Practice.
McGugin made no effort to prac
tice and the men put in the time
receiving punts, while Zach Curlin
devoted the entire afternoon in an
effort to regain his lost cunning at
drop kicking. Last year Zach was
used exclusively as a pinch drop
kicker, being sent in four times for
that sole purpose, and on each oc
casion he sent-the ball squarely
between the uprights. Lately, how
ever, Zach seems to have lost the
knack of putting the ball over, fail
ing during the Virginia game on
six attempts to get anywhere near
the goal posts. But yesterday aft
ernoon, time after time, he stood on
the 40-yard line and laid the ball
over. Curlin’s work as quarter,
however, is not by any means a de
light to McGugin's heart, and, in
fact, Dan is between the devil and
the deep blue sea so far as a field
general is concerned. Neither Cur
lln nor Robbins seems to know
what to do in a pinch, and in the
game with Virginia. Zach’s miser
able judgment cost his team at
least two touchdowns. Once, with
the ball on Virginia's one-yard line,

for line plunges, which was ex
actly what Virginia expected and
for which their defense was primed.
Robbins is of only ordinary ability,
and unless one or the other show
marked improvement before Satur
day, the Commodores are going to
be at a terrible disadvantage.
It's All Up to Hardage.
Captain Hardage is the sole
hope of the Commodores. In the
game last Saturday his sidestep
ping, dodging and flashy runs were
wonderful. If by any misfortune
he should be hurt before the game
Saturday with Harvard, Vanderbilt
would not have a ghost of a show,
.but McGugin intends to give him
only the lightest sort of work —just
enough to keep him on edge. Hugh
Morgan at center played the game
of his ,life Saturday. Big and
husky, he was down under punts
with the fleetest of the Commo
dores, and time after time he
crushed Virginia’s line, broke
through and spilled the play on
one occasion twenty yards behind
the line of scrimmage. Shipp was
a revelation at opening holes
through the line and broke up no
end of plays. So fast were the
Commodore ends in going down un
der punts that during the entire
game Virginia only returned the
ball eight yards.
If the cripples can, by any chance,
be patched up, and if McGugin
can. by some miracle, make out
of the material he has a quarter
back who can exercise some judg
ment, and if Curlin can regain his
old form at drop kicking, then Van
derbilt may have a chance.

BRICKLEY RANKS
WITH CREATES!.
SAYS CMP. •
CAMBRIDGE. MASS., Nov. 6.
Walter Camp, the dean of
football, believes that Charles
Brlckley. if he keeps up his present
gait, will rank among the best of
the gridiron heroes before he fin
ishes his course at Harvard. Keene
Fitzpatrick, trainer of the Princeton
team, and Captain Wendell, of Har
vard, agree in terming Brickley as
the greatest football player ever de
veloped.
"Brickley was by all odds the
star of Saturday’s game, even out
side his field kicks,” said Camp to
day. “He appears a very versatile
young man. He was.a strong line
masher, kept going well, and made
one of the prettiest runs of the
game, besides being ever on the
alert on the defense. If he main
tains his present gait through his
remaining college years, he will
rank very high amongst the great
est heroes of the game.”
"1 have seen games played by big
university elevens," said Trainer
Fitzpatrick, "from all sections of
the country over a span of many
years, but I set down the perform
ance of Brickley against Princeton
as one of the greatest athletic exhi
bitions it has ever been my good
fortune to witness. He is one of
the best athletes of all time.”
Captain Wendell said: “Charley
Brickley’s work proved, I think,
that he is one of the most remark
able players that football has ever
produced, if not the very best of
them all. When you think of the
all-around game he played against
Princeton, it certainly makes one
believe that he is about the best
player that the game has ever
seen.”
"There could be no better medicine
than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. My
children were all sick with whooping
cough. One of them was in bed, had a
high fever and was coughing up blood.
Our doctor gave them Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy and the first dose eased
them, and three bottles cured them,”

Chick Evans’ Favorite Course
Torn Up While He Was Here
By Chick Evans.
(Western Golf Champion Who Is
Very Popular in Atlanta.)
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.—Beginning
in my nursery days, I had
taken a brief interest in all
games, constantly haunting "vacant
lots” where the older boys played
baseball and football. These big
boys appreciated my efforts at
playing "gallery" so much that they
appointed me keeper of pencils,
tablets and other school boy treas
ure likely to be lost in a rough
scrimmage.
1 played with boys of my own age
at the various games and was sup
posed to have shown great aptitude
for them from marbles up to very
juvenile football. But the first
sight of the game of golf trans
ported me into a new world of de
light. For a long time thereafter
the vacant lots knew me no more,
and I lived all day upon the golf
course, either caddying or watch
ing the members play, and always
with a heart set upon the game of
all games that 1 had just discov
ered.
Youthful Defect Is Corrected.
The women were very good to
me at that early age, and I could
carry their bags without much dif
ficulty, but the men occasionally
grinned with amusement at my ab
surd offers of assistance and natu*
rally selected older and snore effi
cient boys. Youth is an easily cor
rected defect, however, and the
time came when my services were
appreciated.

and, I must confess, some days of
happy truancy on the golf grounds.
This was in my grammar school
days, but after I was in the acad
emy and later in the university, I
still passed the greater part of my
time on the old Edgewater course.
I could play from my back door to
the club house with only a little
risk to our neighbors’ windows,
and I acquired much health, some
skill at golf and whatever educa
tion I possess under such condi
tions.
Al! my Latin and French verbs
were learned as I trudged the
course in early morning or late aft
ernoon with a bit or paper covered
with conjugations in one hand and
my favorite mashie in the other.
The poems required to be memo
rized by tile English teachers were
copied on like slips of paper, and
learned as I walked with only lake
and sky and the links of old Edge
water for company. My great love
for all outdoor things dates from
those days.
Club Forced to Move.
Blit unfortunately, our grounds
were only leased, and the real es
tate man had his eye upon our lit
tle paradise. When I went to the
Athletic club’s course in Atlanta in
the spring of 1911 to prepare for
my trip abroad the old course was
already being demolished, and it
was quite destroyed when I came
back again. Flat buildings stood
everywhere upon the green and fair
way, and I can not yet look upon
the desecrated grounds without
emotion. I can not appreciate im
provement purchased at such a
cost.
KEATING TO MEET
MORRIS HERE
TUESDAY
THE Dixie Athletic club has
finally found a man to meet
Carl Morris, the Sapulpa,
Okla., “white hope,” but it was
only after a lot of hard work. Of
fer after offer was made to prom
ising heavyweights, but they all
said “nix” when Morrie was named
as the opposition.
This morning. however, the
matchmaker received a wire from
the manager of Jack Keating, a
228-pounder from New York, ac
cepting the match. Keating is prac
tically an unknown, but two weeks
ago he fought Jim Savage, a tough
Gotham boy, and. although beaten,
made a good fight.
The rest of the card for the open

night is: Mike Saul, of Atlanta,
vs. Eddie Hanlon, of Philadelphia:
Meyer Pries, of Atlanta, vs. Kid
