Lott H enry Norton stood for an- othpr hunk at his Orphfuun Club and then let the spec*, i- tors go homo without returning « penny of their good money. AD 1 tvhich leads us to believe that said Mr. Norton is about as popular with the boxing fans as the measles. Also his days as a promoter are over, or our opinion of the Police Commissi m will be far below bogey. Many of the Police Commission i were at the ringside, They saw 4 he Attell-Kaufman fiasco; they had svrn other bad matches at the Orpheum. We hardly believe the honorable P. C. will stand for any more “frame- ups.” Then Norton put on a joke substi tute bout. It was between Georgi If ay son, of Baltimore, and Kid Paine, of Chicago. May son had a hard tini- holding back his punch for five rounds, but finally turned it lose and all was over. This bout only added insult to in jury and the fens cased their way out of the theater sadder but wiser. Mr. Norton dldn t even make ;i bluff of returning their money. I N spite of the hisses of the crowd, and two warnings from Refer?** Mike Saul. Kaufman refused at any »tag* of the game to open up and show what he,had. He seemed to have come down hero with the opinion that In* could "put one over” for some easy money. To sum it all up. it was without doubt the rankest kind <>f a stall match, from the time the first gong rang until the tyolice ended it Silk Hat Harry’s Divorce Suit Time and Tide--Attend to Business Copyright, 1913, National News Ass'** By Tad ( SAY-TVis A-a^fj-rcc city \ Air 1_| ( g DfliE,p ApfL£i> I TO ME - | cA NT W£t-P 8lfl~ | get Fat oio it- vjjeu- 1 A LI me SL-EEP3 MOW \ OM TVie SAND g£7=-on£r I PACtflWCr 'Y FHE £AT5 A'H - _ l)A ■ / w V EFT rV & fi, /'-■S o p-n -j =»« /O Cu r< T KM.. \\ ?

He be blamed for at.least tried at ail times, while Kaufman appeared to be the poorest excuse of a second- rater He seldom opend up and con tinually dogged it around the ring. f Under the circumstances Norton should have stopped the battle hi the second round He showed very poor judgment by letting the bout go on. He was to blame for the whole fiasco more than any one rise. * * * K 1L YOUNG, the local fighter, and j Johnny Grant, of Chicago, put on tlie best bout of the night in the eight- round semi-wind up. Both boys fought hard, and the draw decision of Ref eree Saul plea-td the few present. Meyer Pro is, as usual, showcej tin yellow streak ami after the first two rounds failed to show anything against Spider Britt in their six-round tight. Britt was given the decision, and Preis refused the hand his little opponent offered him at the finish. Tim Callahan was given tire deci sion over Kid Superior in a four- round bout.

M IKE DOONLIN, who is showing at a local theater this week, ii.is passed from the big lea- gin m fi«r« v» r. He worked himself to th< 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 Asso ciation, has dosed a long pending deal with the Phillies for the ser- vfi-eB of t h* * former captain and star outfielder of the Giants sounds the ng of ttii* in g player from tha first ranks. Donlin played with the Pittsburg PI rat os last season, but showed un mistakable signs of slowing up, and the Phillies purchased him at tho waiver price of $1,51)0. Doonlin re fused to report for spring training with DoolnV men. IL was fi a veiling .with a tiieatrical company and found j prancing behind the footlights !#?- fore an appreciative audience more ! congenial than prancing around tlie [bases in a training lamp listening to j 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, but was always wed up and generally with an average above .300. Rven last year, when he was not at his best, he batted ..316 m seventy-seven games. He stole only eight bases, and his release by tin* Pirates and later by the Phillies may be charged to his lack of speed. Few pitchers felt comfortable when Donlin came up to the bat with mqn 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. Donlin’s star began to wane when he broke his Kg sliding into second base 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. ’Pile lure of the footlights was too strong for Michael and he continued da a< iIng throughoul the next year and a half. It was in ntidseasan that he finally joined the Giants in 3911, after applying to the National Commission for reinstatement. It was seen at a glance that Donlin had lost his speed, and he spent moat of his time on the bench, acting as a pinch hitter for the most part. MeGraw finally sold Donlin to Bos ton. who later traded him tv) Pitts burg in i xchunge for Vincent Camp- JESS WILLARD WORKS OUT WITH W0LGAST ON COAST) SAN FRANCISCO. April 16.—Jess the h«a> \ w eights, i.s doing light trai ling and gymnasium work w tli Ad Woiyaxt. After a work out yesterday he lipped the scales at 237. Willard nevtr has been seen in action on the Pa lfic Coast before and OCAL FANS to-day is your last chance to enter Tho Georgian’s Baseball Contest. Stories re ceived after April 16 will be worth less. Stories received to-day will lie 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 rus 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 of the best baseball seen here in years. The team is "there." BUI Smithr 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. This 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 mav 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 pfiper. 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 grand defensive game behind M usser. 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. Thepe 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 will read every story carefully before de ciding the winners. Manufacturers To Open Its Baseball Season on April 26 8chedule 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 tho 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. B altimore. md„ April 16.— Tommy McMillan will start the championship season wear ing a Rochester uniform, and. moreover, the Georgian will be 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 5*everal 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 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 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 there is no telling what may happen thereafter, as* neither Manager Gan zel nor McMillan would make a statement regarding the terms of the contract nor what McMillan may ex- pec to. receive for being captain of the club. PREP LEAGUE NOTES The Tech High-Boys High trad; meet scheduled to take place Eriday promises to be a great success. Nearly two thou sand tickets have been sold amor.g tho students of the city. Tech High will have about thirty entries in this meet. The class baseball games are 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 postponed until this afternoon. The events will be run off for the purpose of deciding who will be entered in the meet with Tech High Friday. my* j- ccording to the Prep League baseball schedule. Boys, High and G. M. A. were to play Friday, but on account of the high school track meet on that day the game will have to be postponed. Boys High and Peacock meet this afternoon on the Peacock diamond at Piedmont Park. * * * The tennis tournament of Boys High wdll start Monday if the weather is agreeable. They will play through.out the week. This tournament will he held on the Fast Lake courts. Sweaters containing the official high school letter will be given to the six men who fin ish on top in these contests. N EW YORK. Aipril 16.—There reports to the Giants* some time in June, if John 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 gnther 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. Bedell and Meyers are showing much Hass - n the track at Tech High. Both men are good athlete- and are members • f the track and baseball teams of the school. Bedell has been tossing the 12-pound shot 40 feet in practice. Marist Specials lost to the Troop 31 Boy Scouts' 3 to 2 yesterday afternoon; the Marist diamond. Both teams got five hits, but the Marist 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 Scouts. * * * (i. M. <’. has a great pitcher in Har rell. In a gome 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. Ho looks good in practice. 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 w r as 5 to 1 in favor of Tech High. Beside* fanning fifteen hatters and giving only three hits, Weston clouted one . clear over the centerfleld wall in the | sixth inning, which scored himself apd a man ahead of him. Callahan, of Marist. pitched a good game, but was hit freely at inoppor tune moment.” He received ragged support, which put him in a number of bud holeg. 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.
