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.

Evidently Chance ha** in his brief experience in the Amer ican League nicely sized up the John son talent. He deman<is Speaker and Wood for Chase. This is braw jst utT. as we Scotchmen say. There is just a possibility, old top, that Chance and Chase may rout out a ball club for Farrell. "Jake Stahl came down to the hotel and made a bid for Chase." was the way Husk Chance related it. "Jake must have a little of the Greek in him. He wanted me to give him Hal Chase for an outfielder, a catcher and a couple more. The conversation di 1 not last long." This was the gist of what Chance had to say about the famous Missouri compromise. He fanned a little more, and what we gathered was as hence: Jake Stahl talking "1 want a first baseman, preferably Chase.” "Well, old boy. I’m open to any good trade " Jake Stahl—“Frank, I’ll give you Hendrickson and Bill Carrigan. Bill may be bald headed, but what you need Is a steady backstop. In addi tion to that I’ll shift you four young sters." “Wiiat'cha going to do with Wood and Speaker?’ asked Husk, inclining his honorable right ear. "You mean to say that you want Wood or Speaker for Chase?" crioJ Jake. "I want both of them,” observed Honorable Chance, "and strike crooked, boys, there more after that.” sans CHRISTY MATHEWSOK’S BIG HAGUE GOSSIP BOXING News of the Ring Game 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 tance will be attached to that de cision. If wo should lose the cham pionship liy that game which I hope will not come true-—It would lx> the second pennant to go through a tech nicality. Personally, I believe Klein was wrong In ills decision, and Mc- Graw, realizing the importance of it. has protested the game. it was in the tenth inning, with three men on the bases and none out. that McGrow picked Iiemaree out of the game and placed McCormick in the box score to bat for him.

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 some rime! 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 YOUR LIVER AID BOWELS? ! If You Axe Taking Hot Springs Liver Buttons They Are no Doubt in Splendid Condition.

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.
