He worked himself to the top of the ladder in baseball and then hit the toboggan. He will probably try now to become a suc cessful actor. The report from Minneapolis that Joe ('antilion, manager of the Min neapolis team of the American Ass >- elation, has closed a long pending deal with the Phillies for the ser vices of the former captain and star outfielder 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 the Phillies purchased him at the waiver price of $1,500. Doonlin re fused to report for spring training with Dooin’s men. He was travelling with a theatrical company and found prancing behind the footlights be fore an appreciative Audience more f congenial than prancing around the bases in a training ramp listening to the growls of a manager. Always a Good Hitter. I)6nlin has always been one of the most consistent batters in the Na tional League; he never led the lea gue in hitting, but was always well up and generally with an average above .300. Even last year, when he was not at hi® best, he batted .316 in vent\ seven games. He stole only eight basts, and his release by the Pirates and later by the Phillies may he charged to his lack of speed. Few pitchers felt comfortable when Donlin came 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 to turn a close one Into left. Donlin's star began to wane when he broke his 1. g sliding into second has in Pittsburg In 1907. He was out of the game all that season, and l!»•»’♦ 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 i half. It was in mtdseasjn 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 of his time on the bench, acting as a pinch hitter for the most part. McGraw finally sold Donlin to Bos- 331 ton. who later traded him to Pitts- 50 burg in exchange for Vincent Camp- 50 bell. Baseball Contest Ends To-day O O Q © © 0 © LastChance to WinSeason Ticket 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 opt 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 wdll in return give you some of the best baseball seen here in years. The team is “there.” Bill Smith stated on his return from Chatta nooga that he has some of the best ball player® 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. Tlie Georgian has comp to your rescue and 30 minutes of work mav give you the chance of seeing all ypu 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 tiie 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 M usser. Big Bill Prougli opposed the home boys. He allowed u» 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. They wall read every story carefully before de ciding the winners. JESS WILLARD WORKS OUT WITH W0LGAST ON COAST UJ * O O p o o> U1 UJ X ID O. ATLANTA BASE BALL ASSN.

Tommy To Be Captain of Team B altimore, md, April i6.- Tommy 'McMillan will start the championship season wear ing a Rochester uniform, and. moreover, the Georgian \\ ill bo captain of the 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 several conferences dur 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, aside 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 take the field this afternoon. Late® developments may furnish in teresting reading. Every one must concede that with McMillan back in the fold, Rochester now is represented b\ a real baseball 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 then- is no telling what may happen thereafter, 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. PREP LEAGUE NOTES 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 cindpr 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 plans materialize Georgia will be represent ed at the S. I. A. A. meet in New Orleans, for the 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. The Tech High-Boys High track meet scheduled to take place Friday promises to be a great success. Nearly two thou sand tickets have been sold among the students of the city. Tech High will have about thirty entries in this meet. The class baseball games arc now in full swing at Tech High. One game is played every Tuesday and Thursday. Two games have already been played, and were won by the Sophomore B class. A pennant will be given to the winners of this tournament. The preliminary track meet which was to have been held Monday after noon by Boys High has been jx-stponed until this afternoon. The events will be run off for the purpose of deciding who wdll be entered in the meet with Tech High Friday. * * * According to the Prep League baseball schedule. Boys High and G. M. A. were to play Friday, but on account of the high school track moot on that day the game will have to be postponed. Boys High and Peacock meet tl is afternoon on the Peacock diamond at Piedmont Park. * * • The tennis tournament of Boys High will start Monday if the weather is agreeable. They will play throughout the week. This tournament will be held on the East I.ake courts. Sweaters containing the official high school letter will be given to the six men who fin ish on top in these Contests. * * * Bedell and Meyers are showing much class on the track at Tech High. Both men are good athletes and are members of the track and baseball teams of the school. Bedell has been tossing the 12-p<uird shot 40 feet in practice. * * * Marist Specials lost to the Troop 3 Boy Scouts 3 to 2 yesterday afternoon cii the Marist diamond. Both teams got five hits, hut the Marirt lads made more errors than the Scouts, and that is what lost the game. Perry Adair played good ball for the Specials. Adams’ catching was the feature for the rteouts. * * • G. M. <’. has a great pitcher In Har rell. In a game with Stone Mountain he fanned fifteen batters and allowed two hits. Despite Harrell’s good pitch ing. Stone Mountain won the game 1 to 0. The Tech High team will play two practice games with the Tech scrubs this week. Tech High is trying out a new first baseman, named Johnson. He looks good in practice. N EW YORK, April 16.—There reports to the Giant? 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 or 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 of form from that displayed in the game last week with Boys’ High. Parks performed well on third for the high school lads and also knocked out a homer In the fourth, scoring two runs.
