WJ ELCHONCE hud design* for a
** first bats** position, but Steuben- !
ville had another ffood first aacker
bo Harry was shifted to the outfield.
Though pretty raw in those days he
v/as put in the first regular game and
he smashed it up with h three-base
hit in the fourteenth inning, with
two on bases. After that he had
- job cinched.
Seldom has a player broken into
baseball ns brilliantly as Welchonoe
He hit .325 and fielded .981 his first
year out, and that was in the snappy
little O. and P. League
It might be worth noting that the
Steubenville Club led the O. and P.
League In batting that year and fin
ished next to last in which it bears
sad resemblance to the Cracker Club
of 1912.
1 chonce forced himself so strongly
on the attention of big league scouts
that the Philadelphia National - bought
him that .all. Hut of course he was
a shade green to win a permanent
place in the big leagues his second
year out. He didn’t even get a fair
chance to show what he had. In a
practice game at Southern Pines that
spring Welchonoe twisted his shoul
der and had to give up baseball for
two months. Naturally that put him
out of the National League. The
Phillies shot him to South Bend and
there he languished for a season. In
the Central League. It wasn’t alto
gether a wasted year though, for he
managed to hit .315 and field .904.
• * •
T HK hard luck that sent Welchonce
back to the minor leagues in 1910
pursued him still In 1911. H«- was
called back to the Phillies at the
. lose of his season at South Bend
and came South with the club in the
spring. He was going strong until
he reached Birmingham. In a prac
tice game there he was hit in the
head with a terrific fast ball, thrown
by Earl Moore. The blow knocked
him cold and he was rushed to a hos
pital. where In* remained two weeks,
recovering from the effects of the
wallop.
When Harry could gel around
again he took up his practice and in
ihe very first practice gam** he again
faced K ill Moor . Instead of being
worried by the fact that Earl had
sent him to the hospital he crowded
right up to the Hate iff his old-time
way and smashed out two hits in
'hat spuim.
When the National League season
started Welchonce was noi given a
regular job. but was stuck in as pinch
hitter flow and then. The first four
times lie was used in a pinch he de
livered with a single. When the hot
weather arrived Harry slumped in
hatting and he w«xs shifted to Nash
ville.
Harry'* first year in the Southern
was ;*. brilliant one. He fielded well
and batted .8«4, a healthy average
for that season—or any season.
* * *
| AST y ear with Nashville Wei-
chonce wa.s i marvel. The team,
it will be retailed, was shot to pieces
and most of the members were joy
riding. But not so with Welchonce.
He attended strictly to business and
by dint of conbistent slugging he
wound ui ih season with the decid
edly healthy average of .825—and the
league leadership.

Southern League has
performed more wonders with the
willow than Harry Welchonce.
You never happened to set* the
Steuben\ ille ball park, maybe.
\\ t 11. they have a right field fence
that i.« high and far.
In tin* good year 1909 Welchonce
leaned again.-1 :* fast shoot tnd sailed
•the ball over the fence and into an
oil derrick beyond. Nobody had ever
hit one there before. Nobody has
ever hit one over that fence since.
And o this day they call it We]

H i\V 'bout six bits In one game for
a record! Welchonce pulled that
In Birmingham in August, 3911. Bill
Brough and Speer were the op
posing pitchers. The swatting includ
'd a triple, a double and four singles.
In one of the innings, before
Prough was removed, Welchonce
made two hits. In this momentous in
ning Lindsay had the distinction of
being put out twice—finishing the
first and second out. Between the
time of the first and the second the
team batted around.
Never was quite such an inning be
fore. Not only did Welchonce muke
two hits in the inning but so did
Harry Bay. Also "Red” Munson hit
a homer with the base.* full. The
only reason they pulled out Bill
■ Prough was because they were afraid
the game would never end.
rAs far as is known Welchonce’s
mark of aix hits in one nine-inning
game has never been surpassed. This
is the way it looked that day;

In the deciding game of this great

every golf club
has some member who has kill
ed a bird on the wing with a
golf ball or has done a particular hole
in one stroke, or who has done some
unusually extraordinary thing.
Of course Atlanta claims a player
who had the misfortune to nave a
good shot stopped by a Hying bird,
and the first and third holes have
both been made several times in one
stroke, and other unusual things have
happened, which the players like to
tell about, but there was one thing
which happened on the East I.j&ke
course which I do not believe ever
happened at tiny other place.
One afternoon about two years ago
Sam Williams was playing in ;« four
some. and in driving from the fif
teenth tee he sliced his hull slightly
over into the twelfth fairy* n, which
runs parallel with the fifteenth. Ham
ilton^ Block was playing the twelfth
hole and had much* a good drive and
was preparing to play his second shot
as Williams drove. Seeing that his
hall was likely to Hit Block on t^ie
11 v, Williams yelled “fore” at the top
of his, voice, but Block evidently
didn’t hear him. but continued to
play his shot. Just as Block’s iron
reached a position on his down swing
almost to the ball he was playing
Williams’ hall struck the iron square
on the face and Block knocked Wil
liams’ hall over the fence to the left
of the twelfth fairgreen, which is out
of bounds.
Ball Went Out of Bounds.
The worst part of it was that Wil
liams had to go back to the tea and
play the ball as out of bounds, be
cause "if a ball in motion be stopped
or deflected by any agency outside of
the match, or by a fore-caddy, it is a
rub of the green’ and the ball shall
he played from the spot where it
lies." As a bull out of bounds can
not he played and as the rules pro
vide “if a ball lie out of bounds, the
player shall play his next stroke as
nearly as possible at the spot from
which the ball which is out of bounds
was played,” it was necessary for
Williams to walk back to the tee,
180 yards or more, and play his sec
ond shot.
This incident cost him a stroke, but
it gave both of them a story to (ell
when they reached the nineteenth
hole.
Caddy Gets Tired.
The last time the Southern cham
pionship was held in Memphis, which,
1 think, was 1902. there was one of
the old guard who hud failed to
qualify.
One morning he started out for t
round and us he would make a shot he
would drop his club on the ground for
the caddv to pick up. This did not
please the caddy, and he proceeded to
show his distaste for this extra work
bv lagging farther behind the rest of
the bunch. At least as he stooped
down to pick up a club he mumbled
out. 'Tae tired of pickin’ up dese
clubs." At that. 1h> turned upon him
and said, “1 will not reply to you; 1
am in a perfectly beautiful humor and
1 will not ruffle my temper.” Since
that time his many friends have been
looking for the “brand” which could
he guaranteed so highly.
Could Not Find Ball.
flhortl> after the East Lake course
was built two golfers just taking to
the game went out rather late one
afternoon for a round. At the eight
eenth hole they were all square aitfl
they decided to put a little something
extra on the match. Neither of thorn
got away a sufficiently good enough
drive to warrant them in attempting
to cross the lake on the second Shot,
so they both played a short shot dow n
to the edge of the lake. As it was
getting rather dark both of them sent
their caddies acrora the lake to he
sure to find their hall, as it was too
dark to follow* the flight of the ball.
Both played over and one of them
found his ball very quickly, but the
other one and his caddy could not find
his ball. The one who had already
found his ball helped in the search for
a minute or two and then sat down.
The other one and the two caddies
looked and looked, hut in the darkness
they couldn’t see a ball anywhere. At
last the one who had found his ball
said: "Bill. I think your time is about
up, but I’ll give, you a minute more to
rind your ball or it is my hole.” Bill
kicked around in the rough and just
as the minute \vas up he broke forth
with. "Here it is; I've found it.”
"You are much mistaken,” said the
other (at least that is the polite way
to put it), "for I’ve been sitting by it
all of the time."
Caddy Nearly Froze.
Judge Marcus \V. Beck, of the Su
preme Court, says that one afternoon
a couple of winters ago he aud Judge
Ben Hill, of the Court of Appeal--,
decided that they would go out ;•*
When they reached the lake and the
wind got a good sweep at them, they
were impressed with the fact that it
was pretty cold, to say the least of ’t.
In fact, Judge Hill was so impressed
with this fact that he decided not to
play. Judge Beck, on the other hand,
was not to he so easily deterred. He j
put orr a couple of sweaters and got
him a caddy and darted out. All j
of the way around not a soul did he
meet. He had the course all ta him
self. When he reached the thirteenth
green, which is the nearest to the
club house of any of the grqens *>n
th«' second side, except, of course, the
eighteenth, the caddy, just as he was i
placing the flag in the hole, said to
him; ".lodge, when is you gwine t->
quit?" “Quit?” said Judge Beck -
"quit—why. I expect to keep playing
until you -ate frozen stiff.”
“Well, jedge,” said the caddy, “if
dat’a what you waitin' on, you kin
quit right nowf”
And lie did.
Davidson Had Many Clubs.
When Walter J. Travis, the grand
old man of golf, was in Atlanta some
two years ago a bunch of golfers were
discussing his game and the number
of tournaments ho had won, when one
of them expressed the desire to know
how many cups he had. In answer (o
this query, one of the number ven
tured the assertion that he had 100.
“That’s nothing." said Archie David
son, who had Just joined the crowd;
I’ve 40 myself.”
"Where did you win 40 cups—we’d
like to know?” asked one of the
bunch.
“Oh. h— 1!” said Davy, “I thought
you said clubs—not cups.”
Boys’ High Tennis
Tourney Nears End
Finals Postponed Unti,l To-morrow
Afternoon—Starr and Harris
Lead in Doubles.
The annual tennis tournament now
being hold at East Lake by the stu
dents of the Boys’ High School is rap
idly nearing a close. The finals were
to have been played oft’ yesterday
morning, but the Inclement weather
made good play impossible, so it was
I postponed until to-morrow afternoon.
Starr and Harris are away ahead
j in the doubles. They have played six
matches and have won every .set.
Candler and Jones will no doubt he
the runners-up in the doubles, as they
are now close t«> the leaders.
There were fourteen entries in the
singles, and seven of them still re
main to fight it out for first place.
In all probability, first honors will go
to one of the following three men:
Starr, Harris and Jones.
This tournament w ill be an annual
affair hereafter, as a great amount of
interest has been shown in this event
by the students of Boys’ High. Offi
cial High School athletic sweaters will
be given to the winners in the dou
bles and the singles. Many lesser
prizes will be awarded to th’e run
ners-up In each event.

CHANCE WOULD GIVE BIG
AMOUNT FOR JOE TINKER
BOSTON. April 26. Manager
Frank Chance, of the Yankees, de
plored the fact this afternoon that
shortstop is the weakest position in
the Yankees’ infield. He said:
“1 would give $10,000—or more to
have Joe Tinker on my team. It
would make the team. Joe is a won
der. and there Is nothing about the
shortstopping position that he does
not know—nothing that he can not
do.”
Tinker just now D manager of the
Cincinnati Reds.
South as
cent article in the Southern Sports
man, she says:
"Boys, learn boxing. Prepare your
selves so that if necessity brings
trouble you won’t have to drag out
a pistol and ‘shoot it out.’ That’s
not manly ah’d above all, you want
to be manly men.
“I’m a girl, but there’s no more
enthusiastic supporter of the great
sport of boxing than Fannie Ed wards.
1 have three brothers and they’re ail
crack-a-jack amateur boxers and l
glory in their prowess.
“Let me tel! you how i happened
to become interested in boxing and
that wil| explain why boys should
neglect no opportunity to learn what
they may of self-defense.
"in our Texas home jve. had a
•gym’ fitted out and 1 remember the
athletic aspirations of my three
1 rot hers and myself at an early age ;
I took an active interest and sought
to encourage them in muscular de
velopment, that they would feel phy
sically equal to any man and not
get the ’pistol toting’ habit charac
teristic of the average boy of this
part of the country.
Brothers Are Boxers.
"Now, I dearly love athletics and
approve of my brothers’ athletic in
clinations—and they are mine, which
makes us ‘pals; 1 they are clever ‘box
ers’—not prize-fighters. The term
prize-tight’ was always offensive
to me. and I think belongs
to the age of bare-knuckles,
■ lower classes indulge in boxing. This
is not a fact. I argue that the so
ciety element should become inter
ested and ve rsed in fisticuffs in ofder
to defend themselves against insolent
aggression. I believe that ‘boxing’
here to stay, it cannot be stamped
out, but we can control it and place
it on a higher plane.
“1 believe it is possible for man
to In adept with ‘nature’s weapons.’
and yet, be as much a gentleman as
the* ot’nker. the merchant, the phy
sician or th.* lawyer.
“There is a law against carrying
concealed ilre-annr or deadly wen pi
ons of any kind, but there is no law
against science and physical prowess
to defend yourself.
Admires A Manly Mari.
“Any normal man admires a
womanly woman, and on the other
hand any woman of sterling qualities
admires a manly man; we all admire
symmetricl outlines and uniform pro
portions. Symmetry, grace, strength
and beauty should be taught from
our birth—it is the inalienable right
of every child, and we should strive
to fill nature’s measurements.
"I think boxing is teh most
practical and fascinating branch of
athletics; it is mind over matter, the
mind planning and the physical ma
chinery responding—a concentration
of mental and physical energies, the
entile ‘being’ in action.
"The science of self-defense is
gaining in popular favor and with
c lean handling would soon become the
most popular amusement among all
blanches of athletics.”
COMPANY of an association
closely akin to the boy scouts
—perhaps it is a French idea
of the same thing—has been formed
among the caddies of La Boulie, the
golf course of Golf de Paris, near
Versailles. The organization of this
section of cadets eclaireurs. has
struck the popular Gallic fancy and
will probably be adopted by other
French clubs.
This little union, with its special
ized rules of conduct, is exnected to
Imnrove directly the condition of the
caddies themselves and incidentally
the service they render their em
ployers.
Tf the little French caddy is able to
live up to the loi de 1’eclaireur he is a
most superior sort of a youngster.
Great stress isf laid upon honor and
truthfulness, politeness and obe
dience and the cadets-edaireurs
promise "upon their honor,’’ to ob
serve these virtues.
The French caddies, like the Ameri
can. ore mostly young boys and ther?
is no doubt this movement will have*
a tendency to raise the standard of
boyish ideals of conduct.
A company of boy scouts has also
been formed among the caddies at in
English club, and there is a wi<: -
spread general tendency toward as
sociations for the benefit of caddies
Whether such organizations won't!
prove successful in America could
only be determined by experience.
These foreign experiments promise to
by interesting and may be worthy of
adoption by our own laddies of the
links.

WESLEY SWAMPS S. V. D.
In a one-sided same Wesley romped
over S. V D. at Piedmont Park by a
score of 16 to 2. The features of the
game were the timely hitting of the
Wesley team and the pitching of
Thompson, who struck out 14 and al
lowed only two hits. The game was
exciting from start to finish.

The Final Choice of the
Discriminating Purchaser
After trying out several different types of motor trucks
for the pa& two years, The Atlantic Ice and Coal
Corporation, of Atlanta, Georgia, has recently ordered
fifteen White Trucks for immediate delivery.
Responsible firms prefer to purchase truck equipment
from responsible manufacturers. This is one of the
reasons why the final choice of ; the discriminating
. purchaser, is. invariably White.
Another point of importance is the fadt that White
Owners continue to buy White Trucks. When Whites
are used, experimentation ceases.
White Trucks are the mofl economical trucks to operate.
