There is now no longer any doubt about it. The only one we have s< 'hh find we have seen all of them except Jess Willard- who has any thing worth while is Gunboat Smith, and he has nothing but a punch, i lie.v ought to drag Willard out where we can look him over and then abolish the lemonweight division for all time. II is possible that some day some years hence Luther McCarty may ho a pretty fair heavyweight and a young man named Moran also showed llml lie lias a faint idea of what lie is about when gloves are tied onto his hands and lie is pushed into a ring. But, for the rest! If il ever becomes mil' painful duty to witness the antics of any of that gang again we will! leel il in bo our stern civic duty to slip something into their lea the day before. Coming back from Philadelphia we fell in witli a number of scientists who attended the clinic, among them a well-known promotor of one of the big eastern clubs. To him we remarked that while the habit of betting on prize lights iliil not help inculcate those principles of manliness and fair l>la.v. we would risk twenty-five cents or any fraction thereof on the propo sition thin Sam Langford would knock out any four of the eight men who appeared in file show within thirty minutes from the time the first one entered the ring. He looked upon us as if we had tried to steal his watch. T H K Washington Post in ir ing "The Case of Ty Cob iuts the following editorial under tlie iiead- lobb I y Cobb's friends in Congress who have an idea thul ball players an* held in peonage and ought to he set free, so that, they may be able to command $15,000 a year and an automobile for six months' work of two hours a day. had better have a care lest their solicitous en deavors do their favorite more harm than good. An ael of Congress that would do away with the existing system ot contracts between baseball clubs and players inevitably would cost I y Cobb dear. Next season would see his princely salary revised downward to a mere fraction of the $15,000 that looks so modest to ihe peonage busters. Professionally, the whole baseball fabric would lie tottering to its fall, and where then would Congress find surcease from grinding toil at $7,500 per, or just half of Ty’s slave wage? More than once in the earlier days of baseball! before the binding contract now in vogue had been perfected, the strong rivalry between managers and the practice of players jumping contracts brought-things io a pass not far from utter demoralization. Litigation over players whose services were in dispute developed the fact that the contracts were not valid in law. but as the judges uniformly ruled that the courts had no jurisdiction over controversies arising from sports, the eases were dismissed. It tlien became necessary to strengthen the sys tem in a way that would insure a square deal ail around. Each league established a tribunal to settle disputes, with the right of appeal to the national baseball commission, another supreme court lrom which no ap peal can be taken. That, baseball is a law unto itself may strike Congress as being a legal fiction, but that, the judges who so rilled acted for tile best interests ol tlie game is fully attested by its popularity with (he great public and l lie prosperity it has brought to magnates and players. As for Ty Cobb, that champion of champions shows that he has a true appreciation of the situation by going to Detroit, to patch up differences, rather than coining to Washington to have Congress knock off his shackles. "S' KLLING surgical instruments ilial's a business. Box lighting that's no business.” I he above came to us over the wire from New Orleans Iasi night. The message carried the .1. Hancock of one Joe Golden. Joseph is the manager of Joe Thomas. Also said Golden sells surgical instruments. And it looks ;is though lie will have to sell many an instrument during the next few days or else separate himself from three squares per. Thomas was stopped by Charley White in New Orleans night before Iasi, and the boxing experts were given a terrible kick in the ribs. Thomas sure looked like a coming champion in his bouts here in Atlanta. But many overlooked the fact that lie is possessed of a glass jaw. Frank Whitney knocked him down with a short left hook. Thomas de feated Whitney that night, although tlie referee called it a draw. Whitney admitted to us that Thomas shaded him. "But let me tell you that Thomas can't take a clip on the chin," said Whitney the morning after the tight. "I dropped him with a shot left and I didn’ have much steam behind if. either. The first time he goes up against a heavy puncher lie will lie counted out if he doesn’t guard his chin." And Whitney's dope was the jammy stuff. Thomas is the fastest 1 pounder in the game to-day. But lie’ll never get anywhere with that china chin. * * * T V GOBB, the celebrated holdout, is apparently about to immolate him sell on the altar of baseball freedom. The Georgia tornado has defied the Big Works of baseball to do his or their worst and lei the reserve clause fall where it may. Doping down the bin-k a!le.\s of history, this line of oouduct has never netted the conductor anything but a quick and glorious death. There was oue Ajax, a noted slugger a few seasons back, who handed out the same lweaned with a thunderbolt, which was the somewhat uncouth but effective way of blacklisting a rambunctious athlete in those days. The magnates of this enlightened age are more refined. They merely starve a man to death. In this case the magnates are up against a nasty proposition even for them to handle. Gobb is not a pauper. lie has made a lot of money playing ; baseball and a lot more with his baseball earnings. An auto manufacturer or two would like to have him engage to bunk the citizenship of the United ! States into riding in motor-cars. And ihe gate receipts of the Detroit club on the road will undoubtedly fall off to a marked extent. If any athlete lmd to iusnrge for his rights Gobb was the best man who could be picked.

Baseball Contest Winners Named © 0 © © © © O Homer George Gets First Prize T By -J. W. Heisnian. iCH dropped two out of there down at Auburn last week, and this puts it definitely out of the running for pennant honors. At that it remains somewhat of a 1 puzzle to many who saw the games why Tech did not win the series, for at all stages they appeared, even in the opinion of the Auournites. to have the better team. They lost both the first and the third games in the very last inning of each, and by a single run, and in both instances the winning run was scored by virtue of the catcher dropping a perfect throw to the plate, which would have re tired the runner for a certainty. And yet there was plenty of excuse for both Witheringion and Attridge. the catchers who performed. In the seventh inning of Friday’s game Witheringion had a finger dislocated by a foul tip, and it pained him so for the rest of the game that he scarcely knew whether he was hold ing a ball or not. During the early part of the third game Attridge had a finger nail torn loose at the root by another foul tip. and this left him in about The same condition as was Witherington the day before. And these two injured fingers had to cost Tech two games by one run each and the series. In the game Tech won they got out their batting togs and landed on that pitcher, Davis, for about 14 hits, more or less. In the three games thev scored J6 runs to Auburn’s 11. Both Amason and Tyler Montague. Tech's new men in the line-up, played su perbly. each getting four hit® in the three games. Amason performed bril liantly on first, accepting about 30 chances Without an error. The Auburn diamond is a particu larly hard and uneven one. and about as difficult to play good ball on as can be found; but the Yellow Jackets kept up their fine defensive game, in spite of the wonderful home run hit ting of Williams and Davenport, with result that they kept their record of no higher than four runs for oppo nents in any one game intact. Auburn has a better team than it has had in some time, Davenport at first, and Williams behind the plate, being especially serviceable men. Moulton, at short, is another good man. Davis is undoubtedly a very good pitcher when in condition, but he was under the handicap of a sprained ankle in the game he lost to Tech. Moore and Donaldson played ball that was much admired throughout the series. The whole Tech team seems to have awakened and from this time on 1 expect to see them making it very rough going for every team they meet. * * * EORGIA’S clean cut defeat of Ala- ^ bama in two straight games, and the latter’s similar performance against Mercer in Macon, clears up the atmosphere considerably. Doubt less the effectiveness of the Georgia pitchers had much to do. if not most, with Alabama’s inability to wrest a game from the Athenians; but all that is a part of baseball and must go in the summary. The fact that Ala bama could turn around and put it over Mercer in so clever a fashic.i makes the performance of the Refj and Black warriors all the more mer itorious. There can be no question but what at this stage of the game Georgia looks to have the strongest college team in Dixie, and their chances are extra good for grabbing the rag. it is true they have played nearly • M their games on home grounds btr. unless 1 mistake, nearly all of their schedule that remains is to be run off in Athens also, so there is not much chance of an upset on that score. * * * IVAGRCER is also definitely out of all pretensions to championship honors for this year, having dropped a series to Florida and a second to Alabama. Without Moses the Bap tists* are weak in the box, and are making a pretty good showing with what they have left, all things con sidered. It should be a hard fought series between them and Auburn the last of this week, but 1 hardly think their pitchers will be able to stop Au burn's heavy sluggers. * • # \7AXDERBILT turned around and * administered sound drubbings to Tennessee in the return series of games. This shows that the Commo dores are coming out of the depths. But as news comes that Collins has just signed a big ’eague contract I incline to think that his loss will leave the team In a greatly weakened condition, in which they will fall a prey to some other association team yet.

TECH THUG rar-ii H OMER GEORGE manager of the Atlanta Theater and sport en thusiast of many years’ stand ing. was the winner of the big prize in the Georgian’s baseball contest. With a story that would do credit to any baseball writer in America he copped off two free season tickets to the Atlanta baseball park at Ponce DeLeon. Alter him were bunched eight At lantans with baseball yarns of such equal merit that it was impossible to decide among them. The order in which they appear above is not intended to show their ranking. The judges of the contest—Messrs. Oal- lawav, Ryan and Nunnaliy, directors of the baseball association—grew gray headed under the strain of awarding a first. Then they lost a lot more- in cutting the contestants down to the limit. Said President Frank Callaway af ter announcing the awards, "I was amazed at the excellence of the stor ies which were in competition for the prizes. There was very little to choose among the first fifteen. We tried to judge them all by the stand ard of the sort of story that a live fpn would want to read about a game such as ihe one indicated. It was a more difficult task than I suppos ed. It took but a little time to read the stories but it took a lot to de cide the best one. Mr. George’s story is a particularly good one and well deserves the first prize. The others were excellent also. We were sorry that any had to be thrown out and we admit that we were forced to de clare out many that we considered of great merit, though not quite up .fielder and is batting in the clean-up to the class of the winners.” J position.

The contestants numbered up into the thousands and the preliminary job of thinning out the worst ones, preparatory to the real work of judg ing was monumental. It was done with extreme care, however and it is felt that the nine prize winners were the nine men whose stories came nearest to representing what the av erage fan wants to read about a ball game. * # * THE prizes will all be distributed * in time to-day so that the lucky winner can attend the game this aft ernoon. If your name is in the list come to the Georgian, climb one pair of stairs and go to the sporting edi tor's desk. You will find your free tickets awaiting you. PREP LEAGUE NOTES Joe Bean, of Marist, says that if the authorities are willing the annual prep meet scheduled to take place at Tech Flats or May 9 can be held on the field at Marist. This would be a good idea, as the Tech Flats are not in condition yet to hold a meet of this sort, and the Tech upper campus is not a fit place to hold this event on. Bean says he will have a six-lap track laid off and many other conveniences for the ath letes if the meet is held at Marist. * w * Bean thinks that his team will cop ihe prize at this annual meet. He is working the boys hard every, day, and has developed some classy sprinters and hurdlers. The only department in which the school is weak is the field events, and Joe will turn his atten tion to these from now on. * * * Allen and Lewis are iwo stars at Marist in the 100-yard dash, and in practice they look like they could give any of the boys at Tech High or Bovs High an awful chase. Both Allen and l ewis have records of less than 11 seconds for the century run * * * Riverside made it twelve straight \ ic- tories for the season when they Iv-at I>ahionega Monday at Gainesville The game wem ten innings, and Riverside wen 3 to 2. Dahionega was ahead un til Ihe eighth inning, when Riverside tied tlie score. A single and a base on balls, coupled with a safe hunt, •cored the winning run in ihe lentil. * * * Ross Haines, who was pitching for tlie Bovs High team last .'ear. is plat ing with Riverside. Haines is making good. too. and it is largely through His splendid twirling that the Gainesville lads have been able to win so many games this season. The term has not yet been defeated. * * • Rome High School galloped away with everything at the Seventh District high school meet at Cartersviile yesterday. Nine schools were entered in this meet. Track events, baseball games and even debates were on the program. Rome High came first in everything. The members of the track team will be sen. to Athens for the State meet Jury i • • * This afternoon Marist and Peacock will meet on the Marist diamond. This will be the first meeting of the twd teams this year. Judg<ng by the games that both have played so far, Marist should have little trouble in winning this game. * * * T^ockridge is being looked upon as the chief point winner for Bovs High in the big prep meet May 9. He is a crack sprinter, and won three firsts in the meet last Friday between Tech and Boys High schools. • • • v Bill Bedell, .of Tech High, appears to be the best all around athlete among ihe prop schools of this section. It is seldom that a man can win in the sprints and weight events both, as these two do not usually go together. Bedell won the hammer throw and the 100- yard dash in the meet last Friday. So far this season the leading bat ters are on the Tech High team. Be dell and Parks have higher averages than any other players in the league. Allen, of Marist, and Armistead, of Boys High, are close on their heels in number of safeties gathered. Bedell also holds the stolen base record so far this season. Boys High is trying to make arrange ments with Marist to play off their tie game on Friday of this week at Tech Plats. Boys High has won three games and lost none. If Piedmont Park is opened early enough this year. Boys High will have a polo team. Many of the athletes are expert swimmers, and a good team could be organized. If all arrangements can be made satisfactorily, some aquatic meets will be scheduled with some of the pren schools that have teams. * * * Candler and .lories are the favorites in the Boys High tennis tournament which will take place at East Lake this week. The tournament will com mence Thursday and end on Saturday. year. It is due to a great extent to Donaldson's coolness and steadiness that the Tech infield is as steady as it is under fire. The pitchers are going good n<u' and when the hot. weather breaks for good. Tech will be right there with the goods. Pitts is a warm weather man. Eubanks is another one of those hot weather men. He has about as much blood in his system as a lizard and it takes “sure enough” ho: weather to get him going. The outfield is going along with a good pace. With Capt. Montagu; holding dow r n the left garden, his brother Tyler in the center position and Wooten in right the pitchers have no fear of anything big getting by. OHIO WESLEYAN DEFEATS UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA DELAWARE, OHIO. April 23 Two runs in the second and another pair in the lucky seventh gave Ohio Wesleyan enough tallies to win from the University of Georgia yesterday 4 to 3. The Southerners took the jump in the second frame, when Henderson Hitchcock and Clements bingled fo' three runs, but after that the boys from Ty Cobb’s Commonwealth wen unable to connect in bunches. Hitchcock loosened up in the sec ond period, allowing a couple of sin gles, and again in the third round he became generous, giving two walk?, a hit by pitcher and a single. The additional runs came in the seventh frame, when Hyer and Need ham. for Wesleyan, w’orked the hit- and-run game to the extent of vic tory. Henderson, for Georgia, ano Potts, for the Ohio Methodists, were most effective with the stick.
