He is a big, huskr chap, inclined to run to fat. It is hard enough for him to keep in . nndition, under the most favor able circumstances. And lately, be- ,.,msi of n sprained ankle, lie has been unable to work at all. He lasted three innings fine and with the score 11 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 d Elberfeid drove in three runs with a triple into the center lield 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 lie will get it. His next out may be highly im pressive. * * * THE score was tied when Price * ,vc-nt in and it stuck there about two minutes, after which Elberfeid sowed on Massey’s sacrifice fly.

VICTOR MUNOZ WOULD FORM CUBAN BALL LEAGUE Baseball Fans Side With Cobb; © O © © Q © 0 Many Clubs Would Pay $15,000 KODAKS The Best Finishing and Enlarq- inn That Can Be Produced."

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, Cienfuegos a nil Santiago. He says that the game has not advanced far enough vet for the idea to be popular, out that in a few years' time he vvi.l have such a league play on the is land every winter. LORD TO LEAD BALTIMORE. BALTIMORE. MIX, April 25.- Jack Dunn of the Baltlmdre team, has decided to have tt (1-dd captain after Ih". and Briscoe Lord will get the I appointment. Dropping all the peeiflage that in fests both sides of the Ty Cobb argu ment, there are only two practical questions that concern us outsiders': 1. Is the Gem of Georgia worth $15,000 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 other 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 got 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 in a sample: The writer met a rich old "fan” recently—the old- fashioned vested interests "bug,” w'no 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 I go to the ball game every pleasant afternoon. It’s my recreation. I pay a good dollar almost every day to sec- 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 fellows (the mag nates) to give us the best there is. They can afford it. Why. loo_k at that crowd! (He pointed to 7,<)()(' "fans.”) They paid about $4,000 to see thin game. If they gave Ty Cobb $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 f' ver who gives us the run fer 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 epent in the game. But what's that to me” I only pay five times as much to see opera as to see a bail 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 shame to keep a fellow like Cobb from playing baseball. Is Baseball Slavery? On the other hand, a working man who 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 boss gives them, or quit playing altogether. It's slavery. They’re bought and sold like so many eatle. 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 what you can get. It’s the skill with which they do it that gets them the good salaries. Only a few at the top, in base ball, 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 for a fel low who gives up only four hours a dav six months in a year to the game. But what of It? How about the doctor whose skill gets him $1,000 for an operation that takes but 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 league 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 players are all there is to the game, and they’re entitled to a fair share of the profits and to work for whom they please. The Middle-of-the-Road “Fab.” Then there Is the half-way-between I “fan"—the fellow who isn't worried J one way or the other about other ' people’s business or abstract econo- I mlc problems. Here’s what one of them -aid: What's it'to me? If Cobb pulls BASEBALL Diamond News and Gossip tho money In a! 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-*o happens to own the team. No. they go to see rous ing baseball—the kind that keeps you excited. If Detroit can’t make enough off Cobb 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, wherever he prefers to go. That’s all I care about it. Burring influences “higher up.’’ it is safe to say that there are at least four clubs, and probably more, that would be glad bf the opportunity to hire Ty Cobb at $15,000 a year—re gardless of what the owners of these clubs might say publicly on the'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. He declared, emphatically: Would I? Well, you give me a chance and see. Would Cobb make trouble for mo 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 ami llie Detroit Club, solely, as it stands. It is a good guess that any one of the clubs that could and would tak- 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’ public. What the “Fans” Want. It is a good guess that while most “fans” appreciate the benefits of baseball so organized as to assure 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 C**bb in particular, most of them seem to be willing to admit that whether 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 lo pfay In some city that CAN afford to pay him that sum. Cobb is certainly a 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 tht “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. ST.

Empire Kerin displayed some of the finest voices in the game yesterday and looked like a pretty good umpire with it. Wally Smith surely burns the ball to first when there is need of hurry lie nearly telescoped Agler on a couple yesterday. * * * Whoever told Elberfeid bis men could steal at random < n Dunn crossed him. They tried it at tbn start of the game, and Dunn threw them out, one by one. by about ten feet apiece. * * * When Elston t.rled to steal in the sec ond. .Mperman got the ball and stood twiddling bis thumbs, waiting foA the runner to get near enough to be tagged out. Elberfeid is the wise guy about his pitchers. He will not announce them until just before the game starts. This would be all right if it made any differ ence, but not with the Kid’s staff. * * m Dunn earned his pay. Both Bausewein and Price gave him a couple to stop that were right on the ground The sewer had a big day yesterday, j and the smell whew! * * * Detroit got 21 men to first in a recent game. twt>lve to second, six to third and only three to home plate • * * Detroit papers are panning the Tigers HARD • * * Now they say Hal Chase is to go U) center field.

Jack O’Connor will manage the St. Louis club in the Federal League which ought to assure the success of the team, the league, disorganized base ball, the earth and the universe. Jack was sure a grand manager in bis South ern League days. * * * It may not be entirely due to an. im-, provement in John McGraw’s eyesight that he is able to announce he can see the weaker teams of the National League have improved. * <• * If Congress is going to investigate baseball, why not begin with the Chat tanooga team. <« s * The Cubs have a scheme for banishing tho batting jinx. When they can’t hit. they mix the bats all up and pick a stick at random. It always results in a batting rally. * * * “Heinie” Zimmerman recently made an exceptionally successful steal <>f home, except that the umpire didn’t allow it. * * • The Cincinnati fans have an odd sys tem for keeping their courage up. They say that last year the Hurtling Hanks made a fine start and then fell dead. This year the team has started so slow ly that it ought to ksep moving all the season. * * • Rube Waddell and Bill Ijelivelt (the latter late of the Southern League) have been shipped by the .Minneapolis tenrn of the American Association to the Minneapolis team of the Northern League. * * • Think of Rube Waddell in the North ern League! * * • Davenport says the New Yorks are running for Sweeney instead of for Chance. • • • * Baseball is becoming popular in France—which should not be held against the game in any way. * • • In speaking the name of Cleveland's new pitcher, Glavenich, accent it on the last syllabic. • * * If Dolly' Stark could get hold of the moneys spent on his carfare recently he would be able to retire. From San An tonio to * Cleveland, to Dayton, to the Southern League, to Brooklyn, to Buf falo. to Sacramento is nothing for him.

'When Smith fancies a catcher he surely works him. MUTWJirr COLUMN- A S nearly as we van make out ! front the comments of the base- j ball n^oguls on the resolution to ) investigate the Cobb case in Congress. \ these gentlemen are better money- I grabber® than lawyer.®. Cobb is the most popular hall plav- ) er in the world to-day. and as he was about to be frozen out of has - ball in spite of the fact that thousands of fans go to the ball parks of eight cities every summer to see him play, 1 the method by which this was brought 1 about is worth a look or even t \ e looks. Cobb demanded a Halarv of $15.0o ' from the Detroit Club this year an 1 was told to behave and be glad to take what he was offered. Cobb re-J fused to sign as suggested, and !t*» | is now automatically suspended. If a player does not sign at whatever , figure the club sees fit to appraise him at. within ten days after thi. opening of the reason, he cannot play baseball anywhere for money until he is reinstated bv the National Com- mission. No other club of the 225 in tho gigantic baseball trust will bid for his services. To at least a dozen J of these clubs Cobb is worth a pur chase price of $25,000 and a salary of $15,000. hut none of them is al lowed to negotiate with him on pen alty of a heavy fine. Observe, gentle reader. Cobb It* 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 club just the same and make? the length of contract a farce. They can sign him up for a minute, a month or a decade, and if makes no differ ence to their title They own him for us 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 tho “bonevaril,” filled with the remains of others who tried to fiaht 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 one thinks it is a sport but the fan who pays his money to see good.ball playing, and he has to see Jus»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 as possible. Do you puppose it is an accident that McGraw is able to buy nearly any ball player he fancies, or merely because he van 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 eot out of I the National League? Do you think) no one wanted the man who had won three world's championships? Think everybody in the National League thought he was done? You can bet —but not inside a ball park—that they didn’t. Yet seven club owners In the National League waived on Chance or he could not have gone to New York. The heads of the organization pay that they will be glad to have an in vestigation. Ball nlavers would prob ably be even more glad and the pub- lie ought to be tickled to 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 titan that to get a 1 inon wlmt 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 $20,000 j for a meal that the bandite charged him All he had to do was quit eat ing. * • • “'T^’IIE reserve clause in players’ ‘ contracts.’’ said President Lvnch, 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 a century the American public has been going along in the blind belief that skill, sportfmmnshlo and pluck were the 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.

The University of Alabama has not play ed Tech since 1911, and they are de termined to* get away with the se ries. Pitts will pitch the opener and Eu banks will try out his whip in the last game. Both of these men are going good in practice, and there is no reason why they should slump in games. At,tridge will catch one of the games. A mason, the lad from Stone Mountain, wifi play the initial sack. The remainder or the line-up will be 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 the men have bean working with a vim for weeks. The team left last night and will return Monday morning. They will play the boys from Wake Forest here Monday. This should be a good game as Wake Forest has been playing ex tra good ball this season.
