And they surely perspired profusely before it was .iver The game was scheduled for the try-out of George Bausewein, the Charlotte wonder. And don’t hold it against him. He Is a big, husky chap, inclined to run to fat. It is hard enough for him to keep in condition, under the most favor able circumstances. And lately, be cause of a sprained ankle, he has been unable to work at all. He .listed three innings fine and with the score 3 to 0 in favor of Atlanta it appeared that the game was on ice —where it belonged, for the day was warm. In the fourth Coyle beat out a hit through Dobard, Flick and King walked and Elberfeld drove in three runs with a triple into the center field ditch. That last hit ended Bausewein's try-out. But don't consider that any sure indication that Bausewein is not go ing to be one of Atlanta's pitchers. He needs work and he will get it. His next out may be highly im pressive. * * * 'T’HE score was tied when Price * went in and it stuck there about two minutes, after which Elberfeld scored on Massey’s sacrifice fly. Then the Crackers started bid ding for the lead again. They got ; one on in the fifth and then Kid Troy, wno was hurling for the El- lerkids, struck out Welchonee and Bailey, the league batting leaders "f i912 and considerable hitters this year, b'gosh. In the sixth Smith ! aced out a triple, with one down. But Dobard and Dunn couldn't de liver. * * * IN good time came the seventh 1 inning. Price grounded to Elber- feld and the Kid errored. Agler sacrificed. And then came Alper- man. Be it noted that Alperman had al- ! v ady made three singles in succes sion out of three times up. It was & little too much to expect that he could t single again. But he did. a clean blow to right field, and Price romped home with the run that tied *t up. ‘ Whitey” went to sec- on the throw to the plate and S'-ored when Welchonce singled. This run gave Atlanta the game. * * * THIS Alperman is a bad hitter. He kno< keG • ha ball to all four 1 rners of the lot yesterday and •rywhere the fielders went for him 'Tossed them. Once, when they him figured out. he drove such ; ' terrific lick ro Elberfeld that it spilled the Kid all over the dia- ! mond. ^nd speaking of Elberfeld. you have hand it to him for trying to play I ! h" whole diamond. He goes to the f°r bunts, he goes to the out- Md.for flies, he goes to third for 1 hard plays and nobody will be Tprised if he covers home plate or puris few in a pinch.

VICTOR MUNOZ WOULD FORM CUBAN BALL LEAGUE 1 (,s ANGELES, CAL., April 25.— Victor Munoz, the Havana base ball writer, is behind a movement to form a Cuban baseball league, composed of three teams in Havana and others in Matanzas, ( lenfuegns and Santiago. He says that the game has not advanced far enough vet for the idea to be popular, but that in a few years’ time he aid have such a league play on the is land every winter. LORDLY) LEAD BALTIMORE.

Baseball Fans Side With Cobb Q O O O 0 © © Many Clubs Would Pay $15,000 Dropping ail the pei’ifiage that in fests both sides of the Ty Cobb argu ment, there are only two practical questions that concern us outsiders 1 : 1. Is the Gem of Georgia worth $15,COO a year to the Detroit Baseball Club? 2. If Cobb is not worth $15,000 a year to Detroit, is it fair to Cobb or to the "fans" to prevent him from playing where he may be worth $15,* 000? There is a bunch of oth«r questions hanging upon the above—such as "the future of organized baseball," the hazardous returns on baseball invest ments. the manner in which Cobb and Navin handled their respective sides of the argument, etc.—but these ques tions are of no real practical concern to the public. You can’t get the "fans" heated up about any of these side arguments. The meat of it. to them, is served up above in two chunks. What the “Fans" Think of It. Here i>* a sample: The writer met a rich old "fan" recently—the old- fashioned vested interests "bug,” who is a foe to the organization of em ployees for any purpose whatever. He looked like the right kind of a man to approach for an anti-Cobb argu ment. This is what he said: An outrage—an outrage, sir! I go to the ball game every pleasant afternoon. I s my recreation. I pay a good dollar almost every day to set baseball. There- are thousands more like me We are entitled to the best baseball there is. in return for our money. It is up to those fellowk (the mag nates i to give us the best there is. They can afford it. Why. look at that crowd! (He pointed to 7,000 "fans.") They paid about $4,000 to see thi^ game. If they gave Ty Cobh $15,000 a year it would amount to about $100 a game If we pay $4,000 to see a ball game—wnich is a moderate day at most big parks—$100 a game is little enough to pay a player who gives us the run for our money we get from Cobb. That is, if they can’t get Cobb for less. I know some of the baseball sal aries are mighty good money for the time s<pent in the game. But what’s that to me? I only pay five times as much to see opera as to see a ball game, and they think nothing of paying from $1,000 to $3,000 a performance to an ar tist who is as great a star in opera as Cobb is in baseball. No, sir! We want what we pay for. It’s a Hhame to keep a fellow like Cobb from .playing baseball. Is Baseball Slavery? On the other hand, a working man w ho holds just the opposite economic views was tackled He opined: Those baseball players are the worst kind of victims of wage slavery. They have to toe the mark for their employers, and take what the bos-s gives them, or quit playing altogether. It's slavery. They’re bought and sold like so many catle. I know they get good money for the time they spend and the amount of actual work they do. But it's the principle of the thing that’s at stake—the right to sell your labor where and when you please, and for ,vhat you can get. It’s the skill with which they do it that pets them the good salaries. Only a few at the top. in base- bail comparatively, are good enough to get the good jobs with the best paying clubs. And they only last a few years. Yes, $15,000 a year—or $100 a game—is a lot of money fur a fel low who gives up only four hours a day six months in a year to the game. Hut w hat of it? How about the doctor whose skill gets 1 him $1,000 for an operation that takes hut fifteen minutes? He didn’t spend any more time learning how to perform that operation than the baseball player did in learning how to play the game skillfully enough to become a big ieague star. And he lasts longer than the star. And if it weren’t for fellows like Cobb you wouldn't see those jammed grandstands and the magnates wouldn't be taking for tunes in at the gates. The player* are all ther^ is to the game, and they're entitled to a fair share of the profits and to work for whom they please. The Middl«-of-the-Road “Fan.” Then there is the half-way-betwecn "fan”—the fellow who isn't worried one way or the other about other people’s business or abstract econo mic problems. Here’s what one of them -aid: What’s it to me? If Cqbb pulls the money in at the gate they ought to pay him for it, oughtn't they? I’m blamed sure nobody goes to see ball games because so-and-so happens to own the team. No. they go to sec rous ing baseball—the kind that keeps you excited. If Detroit can't make enough off <’obb to afford to pay him $15,000 a year, and some other city can. let him go to the other city. If none of the magnates can afford to pay such a salary and make a good profit, then let 'em pay him less, and if he isn’t satisfied with that, let him go to —well, w herever he prefers to go. That’s all I care about it. Barring influences "higher up." it is safe to say that there are at least four clubs, and probably more, that would be glad of the opportunity to hire Ty Cobb at $15,000 a year—re gardless of what the owners of these clubs might say publicly on tho ques tion at this time. These clubs are: Boston Americans. Chicago Americans. New York Americans. New York Nationals. It is likely that two or three oth ers would slip in a bid at those fig ures if Cobb were a "free agent.” Magnates Want the Cobbs. A magnate heavily interested in one of these clubs was asked what he thought of the Cobb proposition, and whether he would like to engage Cobb. Hi* declared, emphatically: Would I? Well, you give me a chance and see. Would Cobb make trouble for me and my team by his erratic ways and his influence on the team? I don't care. I'd take a long chance on that. But whether Cobb gets $15,000 a year is a question be tween him and the Detroit Club, solely, as it stands. It is a good guess that any one of the clubs that could and would take Cobb at a record salary would be willing to give Detroit in exchange enough valuable players to materially strengthen Jennings’ ball team. But the Detroit magnates are loth to sell or trade Cobb for fear of the effect it would have on the Detroit basebal 1 public. What the "Fans” Want. It is a good guess that while most "fans" appreciate the benefits of baseball so organized as to assume good contests, they are willing to let the magnates wrestle with that fea ture of it. About the only practical concern most of them have in the game is. first, they want the best baseball that can be produced, play ed by the best players obtainable, and. second, they want the magnates to pay whatever they have to, in or der to give them that kind of sport. Concerning Cobb in particular, most of them seem to be willing to admit that whethe r Navin can afford to pay Cobb $15,000 is A question for Navin to decide, but if he can't, then Cobb ought to be allowed to play in some city that ('AN afford to pay him that sum. Cobb is certainly n good enough drawing card to return a big profit on $15,000 a year In several cities, his personal eccentricities to the* con trary notwithstanding. And the- "fans” want to see all the Cobbs that can be produced right out there on the diamond. You can’t bring 'em on fast enough to suit the base ball "bugs.” MORRIS STOPS BELMONT. SI’. LOUIS.

MHTWJirr COLUMN- A S nearly as we can make out from the comments of the base ball moguls on the resolution to investigate the Gobb case In Congress, tljese gentlemen arc better money- grabbers than lawyers. Cobb is the most popular ball play er in the world to-day. and as he was about to be frozen out of has - hall in spite of the fact that thousands of fans go to the ball narks of eight cities every summer to see him p ay. the method by which this was brought t^bout is worth a look nr even two looks. Cobb demanded a ealarv of $15,he frpm the Detroit Club this year and was told to behave and be glad to take what he was offered. Cobb re fused to sign as suggested, and In* is now automatically suspended. If a player does not sign at whatever figure the club sees fit to appraise him at, within ten da vs after th opening of the reason, he cannot p!ay baseball anywhere for money until he is reinstated by the National Com. mission. No other club of the 325 in the gigantic baseball trust will bid tor Ills services. To at least a dozen of these clubs Cobb in worth a pur chase price of $25,000 and a salary of $15,000. but none of them is al lowed to negotiate with him on pen alty of a heavy fine. Observe, gentle reader. Cobb ie not now under any contract. His agree ment with the Detroit Club has ex pired But there is a reserve clause which makes him the property of the dub just tin same and make? the length of contract a farce. They can sign him up for a minute, a mqnth or a decade, and it makes no <1 ifft r- f nee to their title. They own him for as long as they want him. and no one else can even make him an offer. Any league that is organized to play the national game of the American people without permission of Bar, Johnson, Garry Herrmann, Tom Lynch and others Is promptly de clared "outlawed.” It Is boycotted and systematically wrecked. In much the same fashion as the National Cash Register Company's officers showed prospective creditors the “boneyard." filled with the remain* of others who tried to fight them, the heads of organized baseball can point to the long trail of wrecked leagues that have tried to play Independent baseball in the United States. Baseball is no longer a sport. No on*- thinks it Is a sport hut th** fan who pays his money to see good hall playing, and he has to see ju*t the kind of ball playing that the bosses of the trust see fit to give him or stay away. It is a purely commercial proposition, organized and conducted for the sole purpose of making as much and as quickly ns possible Do you *uppose it is an accident that McGraw is able* to buy nearly any ball player he fancies, or merely because he can afford to pay more? Well, it isn’t. It is to the interest of both leagues to have a winning club in New York. Then they can all make more money. How do you suppose Frank -Chance got out of the National League? Do you think no one wanted the man who had won three world’s championships? Think everybody in the National Lea gin- thought h* was done? You ran bet — but rfot inside a ball park—that they didn't. Ye; seven club owner 1 * In the National League waived on Chance or he could not have gone to New York. The heads of tin* organization *»y that they will he glad to have an in ti vestigation. Ball plnvers would prob ably be even more glad and tin* pub lic ought to be tickled :o death. The right of contract in the case of the ball player has been utterly suspend ed You don't have to go any further than that to get a line on what an investigation would show, of course he doesn’t have to .sign unless he wants to. Danglars in the bandits' cave didn't have to pay the $20,0<mi for a meal that the bandit* charged him. All he had to do was quit eat ing. * * * T HE reserve clause in players' * contracts,” said President Lvneh, of the National League, "is the foun dation of baseball.” Now. that jus! shows how a false impression will gain ground. Here for a quarter of ji century the American public has been going along in the blind belief that skill, sportemanshin and pluck were th** foundations of baseball. But Mr Lynch means that the reserve clause is the foundation of the base ball monopoly. HUGGINS' FATHER DEAD. CINCINNATI. April 24. James T.

TECH CLASHES WITH ALABAMA “ TEAM TO-DAY T HE Tech Yellow' Jackets cross bats with the Alabama buys to-day in Tuscaloose. The University of Alabama has not play ed Tech since 1911. and they are de termined to get away with the se ries. Fitts will pitch the opener and Eu banks will try out his whin in the last game. Both of these men are going good in practice, and there is no reason why they should slump in gamps. Attridge will catch one of the games. A mason, the lad from Stone Mountain, will play the initial sack. The remainder or the line-up will he the same as used in all pre vious games. Tech this year has rounded into great shape. There has been very lit tle lagging in practice, and th" men have been working with a vim for weeks. The team left last night and will return Monday morning.
