FIVE MEN FOR
[
SILK HAT HARRY’S DIVORCE SUIT
T
*HE SewRnop Tigrra open n iwo-
girnie seri^fl thl® afternoon with
the Yellow Jackets at Grant I
Field.
The Tech line-up probably will be
weakened on account of the big cut
last week, but then again it may not. 1
The rumor was out this morning
that the five players recently sus- i
pended and sent to the *rrub team by
(‘oach Heisman would be given a
chance to redeem themselves in this
game to-day. Whether this is going
to happen or not w ill be determined !
when the teams trot on the field this
afternoon—and not before.
The Tigers have just come from a
long road trip to Gainesville, Fla.,
where they met the University of
Florida team 1n two ciosely contest- .
ed games. They also played in Ma- j
con, where they broke even with Mer. i
cer.
This defeat of Mercer by Sewarn e !
gives them a slight edge on the Jack
ote, for Mercer managed to make if j
three out of four from Tech.
Since the defeat tendered the team
by Wake Forest Monday Coach Heia-
man has been laying special stress on |
base running and batting. With the I
improvement that has been made j
Tech will doubtless be a different j
team than that which met and lost »o j
Alabama last week. The big shake-
up which occurred last week and cu*. |
off Moore, Fielder, Montague, Pound
md Donaldson was caused by 111 spir
it on the part of the players, (’oach
Heisman took this method of disci- I
plinlng his men more as an example
to others than anything else.
The Tech and Sewanee teams are
about evenly matched, although Ho -
wanee might have a shade the better
1n the twirling line Eubanks prob
ably will do the pitching for Tech to
day and Gordon for Sewanee.
Of local interest is the appearance !
of Pat Dinkins, of Atlanta, for three
years a star catcher on the Marfst
team, who will do the receiving far j
the Tigers.
This is Pat s first season in college j
baseball, and he is fast proving him-
s»Mf one of the beet of the bunch a i
one <\f the leading catchers in college
ball.
The game will be called at 3: »Q

This was the gist of what Chance

Jake Stahl talking "1 want a first

BASEBALL SUMMARIES.
N ;
KW Vi >KK. May l!. From all sides I have heard discouraging talk about the Giants
lieeause the team is not out In front by several games now. It is true the club has
not taken the leap which many of us expected It would, but the spell of rainy weather
that lasted almost a week at the beginning of the race set the Giants back quite a little. The
club came home in the best shape that I ever saw a team get back from the South, but the rain
hurt some of the players considerably, men who need work.
It showed its effect on Tesreau, for Instance. But with the layoff he lost ground, and
lias not showed much since the season began, although with a little warm weather he wdll lie the sensation of
the lengue, I believe. He needs warm weather to work at his best. There was only one home run made off
Tesreau all Iasi season, whereas two have been registered against him already. Of course, that is no indication
of anything, liecituse most home runs come under the head of a “lucky wallop.”
Nobody questions the real strength
of the Giants. They will win tilt 1
pennant, 1 lielieve, but not by as big
it margin as they did last year. The
pitching stall' is the best in the league,
taking it front end to end. Deraaree
pitched it game against Philadelphia
last week that stamps hltn as lielng
one of the coining stars of the league,
and lie is coming fast. too. The re
cruit lias all t.lie marks of a big
leaguer, and docs not get nervous In
the box in a tight game, such as lie
encountered last week against Alex
under. Most young fellows would
have cracked under the strain of that
tight witli Philadelphia. Iiemaree 1ms
notiiing to say alxmt it until after the
game, and then lie showed his disap
polntment. He wanted to go out and
purchase a gun and indulge In a little
target practice, with Mr. Klein, ttie
umpire, playing the part of the target.

'T'HK Giants should have received
1 credit
for that game, and if we
should lose the flag this year by one
contest, there would he an awful
howl, and that decision and game
would come In for a lot of discussion.
The closer the race, the more impor

cision. If wo should lose the cham

will not come true-—It would lx> the

The “Amateur” Meet
By Right Cross.
He had waited long for the stirring
song
Of drumming hoofs on the track;
He carted his pay out to far Rock-
sway
To welcome the ponies back.
The rent was due and the outlook
blue;
He yearned to fasten hts hooks
In the fat bank rolls, and harry' the
souls
Of the "gentleman’s meeting" b?ioks.
j He didn't forget that never a bet
Had won In the long, past years.
But an “AMATEUR meet!" He
picked up hts feet
And lammed for the track with
cheers.
Hts "dope" was great—he found a
slate
With a "pipe” at ten to one.
He bet every cent that he hadn’t
spent.
And settled to watch the fun.
Well, the horse came In! He grinned
a grin—
It really was almost a crime!
But he learned on u iook for that
"amateur" book
That ttie "boob" had been gone

ing the game had been won. Mc
Cormick was out under the shower in
the clubhouse when one of the substi
tutes rushed in and said:
“Hurry back on the field. That hit
does not count.”
“Aw, quit your kidding,” answered
McCormick. “What, do you want to
do, get me out from under this shower
so you can use It V”
“No; it's on tile level,” replied the
substitute.
McCormick would not believe him,
and a committee lmd to bring an
affidavit from MeGraw to get the
pinch-hitter back on the field again.
When Hie game was readjusted and
the players once more resumed ttieir
places, it was getting very dark, and
tlie bail was hard to see. McCormick
could not repeat, and hit into a double
play.
MeGraw, who has a great memory
for detail at once, recalled a decision
which he says set uji a precedent,
and "Mac" maintains that Klein re
versed himself on this judgment he
gave last week. MeGraw pulled in
on Klein at once.
"It was in a game that I put De
vore in to run for Meyers,” asserted
“Mac," in the clubhouse later. “Josh
was caught napping off first base by
a throw from the pitcher, but Klem
had forgotten to make the announce
ment. Devore was in the game, so
I kicked, and told the umpire he
could not call a man out when he
had not conceded him to be in the
contest. Klem refused to listen to
the argument, and put Devore out."
This does look like a parallel case.
Klem could have put it up to Orth,
the umpire on the bases, to say
whether, the hit had been entirely
proper, as "Smiling Al” was watch
ing the play closely when McCor
mick hit the ball. That looks to be
like the logical course to follow. It

I T'S funny how pitchers will pre
tend to be out of form when they
are really in the best of shape. It
is an old trick of twirlers, and I
have done it. myself. Before the
first game of the season with Bos
ton I was shaking hands with "Hub”
Perdue.
“How is the wing this season,
Hub?” I asked.
"Very bad," he answered. "I
don’t think 1 could last a game
through.”
Then he went, out and pitched the
battle of his life.
Before the tie game with Alex
ander, some one asked him what
kind of shape he was in this season.
"Rotten," he promptly replied.
Then look what he did.
“I hate to hear an opposing pitch
er complaining before a game,” said
MeGraw once. "Look out for a no
