Many of the Police Commission were at the ringside.

It was between (If Mayson. of Baltimore, and Kid Paine, of Chicago. Mayson had a hard tiin- holding back his punch for live rounds, but finally turned it lose an i all was over. This bout only added insult to in jury and i he fan* ea of the theater sadder but wi■< r Mr Norton didn't even make a bluff of returning thrir money. m * 0 I N spite of the hisses of the c and two warnings from R< Mike Saul. Kaufman refused a mage of the game to open up and what he had. He seemed to have down here with the opinion th could "put one over” for some ea*) money. To sum it all up. it was without doubt the rankest kind <>f a stall match, from the time tht* first gong rang until the police ended it. A TTELL Should not be blamed for the bad fight. He at least tried at all times, while Kaufman appeared to be the poorest excuse of a second- rater. He seldom opend up and con tinually dogged it around the ling. tender the circumstances Norton shouM have stopped the battle In the aSroiHu,round. He showed very poor judgment by letting the bout go on. He was tb blame for the whole fiasco more than any one else. • * • K JD YOUNG, the local fighter, and _f Johnny Grant, of Chicago, put on tlte best bout of the night In the eight- round semi-windup. Both boys fought hard, and the draw decision of Ref eree Saul pleiiAfd the few present. Meyer Prels, as usual, showed the yellow streak and after the first two rounds failed to show anything against Spider Britt in their six-round tight Britt was given the derision, and Prein 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.

Louis 3 2 .600 Boston 1 3 Chi ’go. 3 2 .600 1 Detroit M IKE DOONLIN, who is showing at a local theater this week, has passed from the big lea gues forever. He worked himself to the top of the ladder in baseball ;tnd then hit the toboggan. He will probably try now to become a suc cessful actor. The report from Minneapolis that Joe (‘antillon, manager of the Min- I neapolis team of the American Asso ciation. has closed a long penditig Ideal with the Phillies for the ser- I vices of the former captain and star "Utfleld* r of the Giants sounds the passing of this great player from tne first ranks. Donlin played with the Pittsburg Pirates last season, but showed un mistakable signs of slowing up, and tin* Phillies purchased him at th? waiver price of $1,500. Doonlin re fused to report for spring training with pooin’s men. He was travelling with a theatrical company find found prancing behind the* footlights b;- . fore an appreciative audience more J.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 most consistent batters in the Na tional League; he never led the lea gue in hitting. Dut was always we*l up and generally with an average above .300. Even last year, when he was not at his best, he batted .316 in seventy-seven games. He stole only eight bases, and his release by | the Pirates and later by the Phillies l may be charged to his lack of speed. l‘Y\v pitchers felt comfortable when IMnlin uame up to the bat with men on the paths. He batted left handed, but hit to all fields with equal ease. He was just as likely to pull a wide curve into right field as he was ‘.o turn a close one into left. Dunlin’s star began to wane when he broke his Kg sliding into second lias in Pittsburg in 1907. He was out of the game all that season, and 1909 found him elevating the stage to the dertiment of baseball. Footlights Got Him. The lure of the footlights was too strong for Michael and he continued his acting throughout the next year and a half. It was in midseas m that he finally joined the Giants in 1911, after applying to the National Commission for reinstatement, it was seen at a glance that Donlin had lost his speed, and he spent most I of his time on the bench, acting as i pc* pinch hitter for the most part. Mcfiraw finally sold Donlin to Bos ton. who later traded him to Pitts burg in exchange 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. The one who writes the best story will get two season tickets. The Crackers are leading the Sou thern League. Bill Smith and his entire team are out to bring the 1913 pennant to Atlanta. Think of It! Are you going to miss the chance of weeing the Crack ers in action every day this season in Atlanta? They want your support and will in return give you some of the best baseball seen here in years. The team is “there.” Bill Smith stated on ills return from Chatta nooga that Ije 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. This might be your only chance of seeing them in action. Only 30 Minutes Work. The Georgian has come to your rescue and 3ft minutes of work mav give you the chance of seeing ull 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 tiie 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 grand defensive game behind Musser. Big Bill Prough opposed the home boys. He allowed us but six safe swats, yet he lost. Long and Smith each secured two hits for Atlanta. For the visitors. Carroll and Ellam 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. This 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 give 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 as judges.

April 16- Tommy McMillan will start the championship season w ear ing a Rochester uniform, and. moreover, the Georgian will be captain of the team. Tommy has not signed up yet, but jusj before re tiring last night he gave Manager Ganzel his promise that he would surely do so to-day. Ganzel had several conferences dur ing the afternoon and night, and it was bed time before Tommy finally agreed to corrte to terms. Manager Ganzel nor McMillan would make a statement, aside from the formal an nouncements that McMillan will sign some time to-day and that he will be captain of the team when the Hust lers take the field this afternoon. Later developments may furnish in teresting reading. Every one must concede that with McMillan back In the fold, Rochester now is represented by a real bast ball 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 r; niainder of the present trip, but tln r. is no telling what may happen thereafter. a>* 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.

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. Iv. 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 Jean 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. Besides fanning fifteen batters and giving only three hits. Weston clouted one clear over the centerfield wall in the 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 ©f 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 the fourth, scoring two runs.
