H enry Norton Mood for an other hunk at his Orpheum Club and then let the spec* t- tor* go homo without returning: .« penny of thoir good money, \i’ <, whli-h leads us to believe that sail Mr. Norton is about as popular wit i tne boxing fans as the measles. Also his da y* as a promoter are over, or our opinion of the Police Oommi.sijri will be far below bogey. Many of the Polic e Commission' rs were at the ringside. They saw *he Attell-Kaufman fiasco; they had .seen other bad matches at the Orpheum. We hardly believe the honorable P. C. will stand fo r any more ‘frame- ups." Then Norton put on a joke substi tute bout. It was between Georg Mayson. of Baltimore, and Kid Paine, of Chicago. Mayson had a hard timo holding bark his punch for five rounds, but finally turned it lose an 1 all was over. This bout only added insult to in jury and the fens cased their way o it of the theater sadder but wiser. VIr Norton didn’t even make a bluff <>f returning their money, * • * I N spite'of the hisses of the crnwil, and two warnings from Referee Mike Saul. Kaufman refused at any mage of the fame to open tip and snow wliat. he had. He seemed to hav< com • down here with th« opinion that he could "put one over" for some easy money. To sum it all up, it was without doubt the rankest kind of a stall match, from the time tH.• first gong rang until the police ended it. * * * * A TTELL should not b< blamed for r . the bad fight. He at least tried at all times, while Kaufman appeared to be the poorest excuse of a second- rater. He seldom opeml up and con tinually dogged it around the ring. Under the circumstances Norton should have Mopped the battle in the sfeettd round, lie showed very poor judgment by letting the bout go on. He was to blame for the whole fiasco more than any one else. Aft 'f * * * K ID YOUNG, the local tighter, and 1 . ufcohnny Grant, of Chicago, put on the best, bout of the night in the eight round itemi-windup. Both boys fought hard, and the draw decision of Ref eree Saul pl< a>*ed the few present. Meyer Preis. as usual, showed the yellow' streak and after the first two rounds failed to show anything against Spider Britt in their six-round light. Britt was given the decision, and Preis refused the hand his little opponent offered him at the finish. Tim Callahan was given the deci sion over Kid Superior in a four- round bout.

He will probably try now to become a suc cessful actor. The report from .Minneapolis that •foe Uautlllon, manager of the Min neapolis team of the American Auto mation. has closed a long pending deal with the Phillies for the ser- vi« es of the former captain and star outfielder of the (Bants sounds tho passing of this great player from the first ranks. Donlin played with the Pittsburg Pirate:' last season, but showed un mistakable sighs of slowing up, and the Phillies purchased him at tha waiver price of $1,500. Doonlin re fused to report for spring training with Doom's men. lie was travelling with a theatrical minpnny and found prancing behind the footlights b?- fore an appreciative audience more congenial than prancing around the basis in a training camp listening to the growls of a manager. Always a Good Hitter. Donlin has always been one of the m<*.-t consistent batters in the Na tional League; he never led the lea sin' in pitting, but was always well up and generally with an average hove .300. Even last year, when he was not at his best, lie batted .316 in si venty-seven games. He stole only eight bases, and his release by tli Pirates and later by the Phillies may be charged to Jii* lack of spend. Dow pitchers felt comfortable when Donlin t ame up to the bat with men on the paths. He batted left handed, but hit to all fields with equal ease. He was just ns likely to pull a wide curve into right field as he was o turn a dose one into left. Donlin’s star began to wane when be broke his leg sliding into second bar ■ in Pittsburg in 1907. He was out of the game all that reason, and 19no found him elevating the stage to the dertiment of baseball. Footlights Got Him. The lure of the foot lights was too strong toi Michael and he continued his acting throughout the next year and a half. It was in midseason that he finulb joined the Giants in 1911, after applying to the National Commission for reinstatement. It wa s-tii at a glance that Donlin had lost his speed, and he spent most of his time on the bench, acting as a pinch hitter for the most part. McGraw finally sold Donlin to Bos ton. who later traded him to Pitts burg in i xchange for Vincent Camp bell. L OCAL FANS to-day is your last chance to enter The Georgian’s Baseball /Contest. Stories re ceived after April 16 will be worth less. Stories received to-day will be given as much attention as those sent In on the opening day of the con test. There are ten free season tickets offered by The Georgian. These are to be given to nine different people. Tho one who writes the best story will get two season tickets. The Crackers are leading the Sou thern League. Bill Smith and ilia entire team are out to bring the 1913 pennant to Atlanta. Think of it! Are you going to miss, the chance of seeing the Crack ers in action every day this season in Atlanta? They want your support and will in return give you some or the best baseball seen here in years. The team is "there." BUI Smith stated on his return from Chatta nooga that he has some of the best ball players ever seen in the South. Also most of these players may be up in the big League next season Tills might be your only chance of seeing them in action. Only 30 Minutes Work. The Georgian has come to your rescue and 30 minutes of work may give you the chance of seeing all you want of the Crackers. The work is easy and it is up to you to make the most of this opportunity. Grab a pencil and some paper. Write 600 words about the game in the appended box score. Don’t try to write a fancy story. You certain ly have been reading thousands of stories in the various newspapers and It should not be hard to write just one story, about 600 words and win one of the free season tickets. The game is the opening contest of the season. You certainly read the story of Monday's game in the paper, so write one in your own words. At lanta also won this contest. The score was 7 to 6 It was a rattling game, with the Crackers just nos ing the Barons out. Paul Musser was apparently the star of the game. He allowed his opponents 13 safe hits, yet they only were able to push six runs over the plate. Bill Smith's team must have play ed a giand defensive game behind Musser. Big Bill Prough opposed the home boys. Fie allowed us but six safe swats, yet he lost. Long and Smith each secured two hits for Atlanta. For the visitors, Carroll and El lam did the heavy hitting. Carroll got four hits, while Ellam managed to collect three. These are the main features. Pick them out and tell the fans what happened. It’s easy and takes but little effort. But, remember fans. Tills is your last chance. To-day is the final day of the contest. Letters sent in to morrow will be worthless. Don’t un der any circumstances miss this chance. Hundreds of fans have already sent in their stories, but yours will be given as much attention as the first ones sent In. Thirty minutes of work may gyve you the chance you have been long ing for all season—a free ticket to every game this season. Therefore, grab a pencil and some paper and get busy. THIS IS THE FINAL DAY. Frank Callaway, Charles Nunnally and Gus Ryan, the directors of *he Atlanta Baseball Association, have been selected ns judges. They will read every story carefully before de ciding the winners. Manufacturers To Open Its Baseball Season on April 26 Schedule Just Adopted Provides For Fifteen Games For Each Club.

GEORGIA TO HAVE TRACK TEAM; PADDOCK CAPTAIN ATHENS, GA., April 16.—Definite plans were made at a meeting of prospective track men to put out a cinder path team at Georgia this spring. Dave Paddock, quarterback on the football team, was elected cap tain. Coach Cunningham will have charge of the coaching and if plan** materialize Georgia will be represent ed at the S. I. A. A. meet in New Orleans, for tho firs* time, in a num ber of years, and will also meet Clemson later. Vanderbilt will be offered a chance to meet Georgia and it is very prob able that such an event will be held in Atlanta the middle of May. B altimore, aid., April ic.— Tommy McMillan will start the championship season wear ing a Rochester uniform. and, moreover, the Georgian will be captain of tho team. Tommy has not signed up yet, but just before re tiring last night he gave Manager Ganzel his; promise that he would surely do so to-day. Ganzel had i-everal conferences din ing the afternoon and night, and it was bed time before Tommy finally agreed to come to terms. Manager Ganzel nor McMillan would make a statement, asi.de from the formal an nouncements that McMillan will sign some time to-day and that he will he captain of the team when the Hust lers lake the field this afternoon. Later developments may furnish in teresting reading. Every one must concede that with McMillan back In Hie fold, Rochester now is represented by a real bat'eball club. It makes the path to a possible fourth pennant much smoother and Rochester fans doubtless will shout with glad ac claim. “Well done.” Manager Ganzel’s last worry as to the make-up of his team has been removed by the assurance that Mc Millan will play to-day and during the remainder of the present trip, but there is no telling what may happen thereafter, ae neither Manager Gan zel nor McMillan would make a statement regarding the terms of the contract nor what McMillan may ex- pect to receive for being captain of the club.

Tech High is trying out u new lirst baseman, named Johnson. He looks- good in practice. N EW YORK, April 16.—There reports to the Giants some time in June, if John J. McGraw decides to stand for it, one E. K. Perryman, celebrated as the preacher-pitcher, and also as the longest recruit ever extracted from the sticks. E. K. was billed to appear at Marlin last February, and the watchers at Emerson Park used to anxiously scan the horizon every morning looking for a tall uprising against the sky line. It Was a grand chance for E. K. to gather much publicity, but he came not. and the last news from him was to the ef fect that he wanted to finish his studies. Perryman comes from 'way down in Georgia. He was taken by McGraw from the Richmond team of the Vir ginia League, where he developed a great store of “stuff' without win ning many games. McGraw has not yet determined whether he will wait the conclusion of Perryman's educa tional pursuits jr not. JEAN WESTON IS HERO OF TECH HIGH-MARIST GAME Joan Weston, the Tech High slab artist, was too much for Marist yes terday afternoon and practically won his own game. The score was 5 to 1 in favor of Tech High. Beside* fanning fifteen batters and giving only three hits. Weston clouted one clear over the eenterfield wall in th? sixth inning, which scored himself and a man ahead of him. Callahan, of Marist, pitched a good game, but was hit freely at inoppor tune moments. He received ragged support, which put him in a numb;r of bad holes. Tech High showed a complete reversal of form from that displayed in the game last week with Bovs’ High. Parks performed well on third for the high school lads and also knocked out a homer in tlie fourth, scoring two runs. ■ wawan Jts.-fwa»yayg3»»g3MBiiauijjBrjKa 17 Birmingham 110 201 010— 6 Atlanta 131 100 Olx— 7 Summary: Two-base hits—Long, Smith.
