BASEBALL
Diamond News and Gossip
Umpire 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 hall to
first when there is need of hurry. He
nearly telescoped Agler on a couple
yesterday.
* * *
Whoever told Elberfeld his men could
steal at random on Dunn crossed him.
They tried ii at the start of the game,
and Dunn threw them out, one by one,
by about ten feet apiece.
* * •
When Elston tried to steal in the sec
ond, Alperman got the ball and stood
twiddling his thumbs, waiting for the
runner to get near enough to be tagged
out.
* * •
Klberfeld is the wise guy about his
pitchers, lie 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
* * *
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,
and the smell—whew!
* * *
Detroit got 21 men to first in a recent
game, twelve to second, *ix to third
and only three to home plate.
* * *
Detroit papers ar»* panning the Tigers
HARD.
* ♦ *
Now they say Hal Chase is to go to
center field. It is pretty generally ad
mitted now that he can’t play second
base.
4> * *
Wilbert Robinson is working .km
Thorpe with a spitball every morning,
and believe me he may yet develop the
Redmap into a fair slabster.
A S nearly as we can make out
from the comments of the base
ball moguls on the resolution to
investigate the Cobb case in Congress,
these gentlemen arc better money-
grabbers than lawyers.
Cobb is the most popular hall play
er ^in the world to-day, and as he
was about to be frozen out of bns< -
ball in spite of the fact that thousands i
of fans go to the ball parks of eight j
cities every summer to see him play, \
the method by which this was brought]
about is worth a look or even two]
looks.
Cobb demanded a nalarv of $15,004 j
from the Detroit Club this year and .
was told to behave and be glad to!
take what he was offered. Cobb re-j
fused to sign as suggested, and lie J
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 the.
opening of the season, 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 for
his services. To at least a dozen ,
of these clubs Cobb is 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 ,>f a heavy fine.
Observe, gentle reader, Cobb is 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 makes]
the length of contract a farce. They
can sign him up for a minute, a month |
or a decade, and it .makes no differ * ,
ence 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 piny
the national game of the American
people without permission of Ban
Johnson, Garry Herrmann. Tom
Lynch and others is promptly de
clared "outlawed.” is boycotted I
and systematically wrecked. In much I
the same fashion as the National)
Cash Register Company’s officers
showed prospective creditors the
"boneyard,” filled with the remains
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
one thinks it is a sport but the fan
who pays his money to see good bail
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 as possible.
Do you suppose 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 League
thought he was clone? You can bet
—but not inside a ball park thar
they didn't. Yet seven club owner?
in the National League waived on
Chance or he could not have gone
to New York.
The heads of the organization .‘••ay
that they will be glad to huv. an in-
Guthrle.

dHTMIK reserve clause in players'
* contracts," said President Lynch,
of the National League, “is .the foun
dation uf baseball.” Now. that just
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, sport"manshln and pluck
were the foundations of baseball. But
.Mr Lynch means that the reserve
clause is the foundation of the base

TEl TO-DAY
rj > HE Tech Yellow Jackets cross
j bats with the Alabama boys
to-day in Tuscaloosa. 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. Attridge will catch one of
the games. Amason, the lad from
Stone Mountain, will play the initial
sack. The remainder of 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 been working with a vim for
weeks.
The team left last night and will
return Monday morning. They will
play the hoys from Wake Forest here
Monday. This should be a good game
as Wake Forest has been playing ex
tra good hall this season. The new
diamond is in good shape, the recent
hot weather having given the workers
a chance to smooth and pack it. It is
now one of the fastest diamonds in
