UMPIRES RENDER OPINIONS US TO JOHNJVEBS Chicago, Nov. —a Chicago baseball writer asked the um pires of the National league how they enjoyed the idea of John ny Evers managing the Cubs. Here are the replies: CLARENCE OWEN—I am com paratively new to the league, so I don’t like to talk much. All I will say is, Oh, Lord! WILLIAM BRENNAN—I reach ed a point this year where I ceased to pay heed to anything Mr. Evers said. He evidently realized this, for he finally quit talking to me and at tracted my attention by dropping gravel down the back-of my neck. I will stretefi a point and only draw the line at concrete building blocks. WILLIAM KLEM—It has been my practice to can Evers for call ing me Bill, which shows a lack of respect. I will allow him to call me Bill next year, but he must cease his alleged comical mimicry of my ..gestures, AL. ORTH —He is the president of our concern and I will leave the handling of Mr. Evers to Mr. Klein. JACK FINNERAN—I never con sidered Mr. Evers any worse than Mr. Zimmerman or Mr. Tinker. CY. RIGLER —I can whip any man in the National league. I pre fer them big. but I won't let any manager’s littleness interfere. MAL. EASON—I don’t think Ev ers’ promotion will increase his vo cabulary. and 1 consider mine equal to his. JIM JOHNSTONE —1 see no ob ject in discussing Evers. I expect him to spend most of the summer in 'the grandstand. JACK WESTERVELT—The American league is bad enough for me. ALABAMA-MISSISSIPPI GAME MOVED UP A DAY BIRMINGHAM. ALA., Nov. 7.—The game between Alabama and Missis sippi, which was to have been played Saturday at Tuscaloosa, has been moved up a day, and will be played Fri day. This will enable many persons to attend the game who would otherwise be prevented by a heavy rush of Sat urday business. Birminghamers may attend the game without inconveniencing themselves, leaving Birmingham! on the “Pan" at 10:20 a. m. Friday and returning that night. The struggle between Mississippi and Alabama should be one of the most evenly fought games of the season, and Is certain to draw a large crowd. "Ole Miss” played a great game with its four star players ruled out, and with their reinstatement Alabama may look tor a hard struggle. CUBS AND PIRATES KEEN TO.LAND BRESNAHAN CHICAGO.

P’' 7 Wt. i - "'' ..s*zti Fighters Fail, But Johnson's Conduct Gives Him Black Eye By W. W. Naughton. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7. “That's not sporting news; it’s police news." So claimed a copy reader on the sporting desk of a prominent paper once, when told by his city editor to handle a story having to do with the shooting of one race track man by another. And he was right. When a sport ing man, or a man from any other walk in life, becomes entangled in the meshes of the law. he is meat for the reporter who keeps the pub lic informed in regard to crime and its causes. So much has been written about Jack Johnson and his lapses of late that to add a jot of criticism to the things that are being said would savor of turning the hose on a drowned rodent. But there is a sporting angle to the Johnson case and it invites discussion. It seems to the writer that John son has been eliminated as thor oughly from the pugilistic outlook as though he had been signally de feated by some rival heavyweight. Even the regret that ho one has been found capable of beating him is expressed no more. The disgust at his alleged misconduct is such that no one wants to think about him in any connection. The last straw came when Hugh Mclntosh, of Australia, cabled his agent to call off negotiations with Johnson at once. The action was so spontaneous that one can readily imagine how quickly feeling against the big negro was aroused in Aus tralia when news of his latest es capade reached there. Lost $50,000 in Australia. If the deal with Mclntosh had gone through, Johnson would have received fifty thousand dollars, so that it ,may be considered he has been fined that amount already. And that in itself Is pretty severe punishment. Os course, there will be no John son-Langford fight now, so far as Australia is concerned, and there is equally small chance of the pair meeting in this country or England. The writer is inclined to think, however, that the tightening of the coils around Johnson, so far as the 7TH SON OF A 7TH SON IS JINXED AT HARVARD BOSTON, Nov. 7.—Hunter McGuire, a wealthy Harvard athlete, can not be convinced that it is lucky to be the seventh son of a seven!h son. It hap pens that he is the seventh son of a seventh s6n, but a string of unfortu nate accidents, which will prevent him from winning this year his coveted football “H.” shatters, In his mind, the idea that it is lucky to be one. Last year McGuire was on the Har vard varsity football squad. He haa good weight, 230 pounds, and was trained as an understudy to Captain Bob Fisher of last year’s team. He progressed rapidly under the tutelage of Coach Percy Haughton. But in the Carlisle game, two weeks before the big battle with Yale, in which the play, ers have a chance to make their letter, he was injured, a bad hip keeping him out of the game for the remainder of the season. This year the undaunted seventh son of a seventh son entered into the fray again, and he was the logical man for guard’s position in the line when he was injured in a practice session on Soldiers field. A sprained ankle result ed and McGuire will be kept out of the game for this year. Next year will be his senior year at Harvard and he will have one more chance to combat with fate in his en deavor to win the big, red football "H.” WOLVERTON IS FIRED: NO SUCCESSOR NAMED NEW YORK, Nov 7.—President Frank Farrell, of the New York Ameri can league club, announced last night that Harry Wilverton would not be re tained to manage the club next sea son. Wolverton’s contract was only for one year. No announcement was made as to Wolverton's successor. rilE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1912. boxing outlook is concerned, is not bothering Jack. Recent revelations concerning his private life have a suspicion that Johnson has had no serious thought of re-entering the ring, and that he would like nothing better than to continue in his pres ent environment. The exposure made may make Johnson feel like leaving this coun try for a while —that is, if he con tinues a free man—and, such being the case, he might entertain one of the offers placed before him some time ago by the Paris promoters. There is a possibility, of course, that even Paris may withdraw its invitation to Johnson to appear in a French ring, and if this is done the champion will be as completely '•orralled, pugllistlcally, as a steer in a pen, for the chain of disbar- ■ ment will reach around the world. Even with matters as they are, there Is a good chance for the white heavies to engross public at tention if they have sense enough to rise to the occasion. White hopes have bloomed and white hopes have faded, but we still have with us Al Palzer, Jim Flynn and Luther McCarthy, and a three cornered fistic., argument among these, having for its purpose the settlement of the question of su premacy, should keep the fires of interest burning briskly for a year, at least. Palzer and Manager Make Up. So far nary a one of the hopes seems to be displaying undue im patience to get at one of the oth ers. It can be claimed in Palzer's case, of course, that the big lowan was held back by the deadlock with Tom O’Rourke, but now that ami cable relations have been re-estab lished. Palzer should be heard from. Just what Jim Flynn's little game is is not clear. A few months ago he complained bitterly that he could not get a chance to show how good he was. Now he flits from place to place, and. when questioned about his ring plans, is wonderfully non committal —-for Flynn. Even Luther McCarthy—or Lu ther McCarthy’s manager, which is the same thing—accuses the fire man of being attacked with chilled extremities whenever a Flynn-Mc- Carthy match is suggested. CLEMSON AND GEORGIA READY FOR THEIR GAME AUGUSTA, GA., Nov. 7.—Everything is in readiness for the game between Clemson and' Georgia at the fair grounds here today. Georgia rules the favorite, because of superior weight and strength and on past performances. Augusta fans anticipate a hard fought battle, nevertheless, as Coach Dobson’s men are born lighters.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Nov. 7. —After Billy Papke defeated Georges' Carpentier in Paris, the sports of this country expect ed that the middleweight who used to be known as the Illinois Thun derbolt would be in demand among the French promoters, and that probably Eddie McGoorty would be sent for to give Papke battle. The cable brings the news that the matchmakers of Paris have no desire to handle Papke again, and that in all probability Frank Klaus and McGoorty will be signed for a go in the French capital. There are several versions in re gard to Papke's unpopularity. One is that the French promoters have decided to recognize the New York commission’s disbarment of the Thunderbolt, and keep him out of the ring until the ban is removed in New York. When requested to take such ac tion at the time Papke refused to box Frank Mantell in New York, the. promoters across the pond ex cused themselves from doing so on the score that the Papke-Carpen tier match had been extensively ad vertised, and that to’forbid it at that late hour would entail loss upon the promoters. Another story Is to the effect that the disinclination to have anything further to do with Papke is due to the fact that he smashed the Pari sian idol, Georges Carpentier, and that the matchmakers feel it would be an unpopular move to put Papke in tbfe ring again. In all probabil ity this version is unreliable. The French have shown themselves to be imbued with sportsmanlike feel ing, and would, scarcely prove so small-minded as this story infers. PLAYERS DEMAND PAY FOR TRAINING SEASON The major league magnates will soon face a new source of expense in the spring. The new Players Protective as sociation plans to demand remunera tion for its members while getting into shape for the season. The contracts signed by the men heretofore have called for pay days only after the sea son begins in April, while the players have been engaged in strenuous work in many instances since February. Os course, legitimate expenses are taken care of by the clubs. Still the men feel they are entitled to consideration for the six weeks or two months they are getting into shape at the training camps. It is believed that S2OO per month will be asked as the proper amount to recompense the men for their early spring labors, although this feature will be settled at a conference to be held later. “Broadway Jones," a thrilling story of ‘' The Great White Way, ’ ’ based on George M. Cohan’s play now running in New York, will begin in Friday’s Georgian. It is well worth reading. Playing Managers Should Be Compelled to Work in Games By Sam Crane. NOW, as the time approaches for certain club owners to engage new managers, it will be well for the owners to see that the contracts call for the manager to play a stated number of games, provided, of course, that the manager is not incapacitated from playing on account of in juries. According to reports, one reason why Roger Bresnahan was deposed from the managership of the St. Louis Cardinals was for the reason that he failed to be in the Cards' line-up as often as he could and should have been. Thereby Roger failed to bring the club up as high in the race as he would have done had he been behind the bat oftener when he was in condition to play. In my opinion, the St. Louis club's owner. Mqs. Britton, had more or less reason for her com plaint, but hardly enough to Justify her in taking the severe methods she did. But, doubtless, she thought she had other causes for complaint which she and her advisers con sidered sufficient to warrant the important and possibly serious change. Team Needed His Services. During the past season I felt called upon to criticise Manager Bresnahan for not catching as oft en as he should have done. He had a team to which his services as an active participant in every game were invaluable. And it was when Roger was behind the bat In every game for long periods that the Cardinals made the most phenome nal winning spurts, and the club made the most money It ever did. There is no, doubt that Roger was Injured many times and was obliged to lay off in a number of games when it was utterly impos- S OLD SORE BUT NOT WITH SALVES Every old sore can be cured unless it be of a malignant cancerous nature. But no chronic ulcer can be cured by the application of salves or other ex ternal treatment. You must get down to the origin and cause before you can produce curative effects. Bad blood is responsible for old sores and the one certain cure therefore is a thorough purification and upbuilding of the circulation. As long as impurities are left in the blood they will be depos ited into the ulcer to keep up the inflammation and irritation and nature can make no progress toward healing the place.

No team ever missed a man ager’s electric personality and en couragement as did the Cardinals their energetic and fighting leader. Some players, from the earlier days of baseball to the present, who have been promoted to man agers, have at times appeared to take undue advantage of their au thority and taken things too easy for the good of their clubs and teams. They have dearly loved to be the" boss. They may not have had it in their mind to be disloyal to their employers and would fiercely resent any implication that fhey were not working for the best interests pf their club, but the love of command and to’do as one saw fit often was the means of the player-managers "resting" more than they would have if they were in the ranks. Consequently, it will be no more than ‘just that the owhers of the clubs bind their new managers down to contracts that will assure their presence in every game un less accidents make It an Impossi bility. It will be no reflection on the new managers' honesty or loyalty to demand it, and might save much trouble later on. I do not think that Roger Bresnahan would ob ject to such a contract if he signs with the Brooklyn club, as I hope he does. GORDON PLAYS LOCUST GROVE. LOCUST GROVE, GA., Nov. 7.
