Coach Hei«mun is a little undec!d»>j about his battery nv»n. but will utry cither Pitts or Eubanks on the. slab, probably the former. Gordon prob ably will work for Seva nee. The rejuvenated Jackets trounced the Tigers yesterday to the tune of 13 to 0 in a game replete with hits and errors, mostly hits. The Techites had their batting clothes on and rapped Eggleston from the box in the second inning. McGoddwln. who re placed him, fared little better and was relieved by Hammond in the sixth. Hammond pitched better ball and managed to hold the swatting Jackets to one hit for the remainder of the game. Eubanks pitched stellar ball for Tech for four innings, allowing no bits, but was replaced by Gambill. who was touched up for a total of live, two of them being slow infield hits. Second Inning Was BIG. In the second inning, when the Jackets pm across their swat fest, Montague was given a free pass to first and was advanced to second when Malone landed safe at first on Hammond's error. A mason beat out an infield hit and was safe with the bases full. Attridgo bingled to left, scoring the First two runs of tin gam-. T. Montague was next safe on Ham mond’s error, which scored Amason and Attridgo. Montague managed to reach third on this play and stole home. Wooten placed one in the con fer garden, taking second on Moore's sacrifice, and was scored by Pitts' single to right. F. Montague hied out to Fanning and the agony was over. Hits did it, coupled with the Jackets' daring and heady base running. A story of the whole game would re el much the same. But the contest wtp won right then and further details would be only adding Insult to insu't. The fielding of both teams was bright in patches, despite a few misplays. while the batting of Tech was a great improvement o\Vr other games this season. Their base running showed up well.

SYRACUSE BUYS VICKERS. SYRACUSE, >-. 1 —Th Syracuse New York State Loagu • Baseball Club has purchased Rub.* Vickers, who pitched for the Balti more team in the International League last season. T HE passing from the Southern League of Otto Jordan, for years a landmark and in his prime the greatest fielder the league ever knew, recalls again to mind the old truth that youth and speed, not age and brains, win in baseball. This year 1ms been a hard one on old timers in Dixie. Harry Matthews tried it down in New Orleans but they couldn’t* see him. The old noodle was working, the arm'wasn’t; his head knew the rules but his legs had for gotten how to run. Tommy Fisher was going to try a come back but he changed his min i. Lew McAllister, one of the world's best in his day, came to Atlanta, tried out and went back again. Teddy Bair and Dock Moskiman refused to report to the Vols rather than ex hibit the infirmities due to advancing years; the Lookouts are about ready to part with Bill Chappelle, a fine old timer; Maloney, once a marvellous player, has just passed from the Mo bile team. It’s the Same in Big Leagues. In the major leagues also each passing year chants out the swan song of some battle-scarred veteran. The demands of age cannot be ig nored; youth will be served, and ev ery little while taps are being sound ed for the retirement of one more dia mond hero who has doffed his hat for tht* last time to the plaudits of thou sands. This year tends one to believe that the death knell of one shortstop av least is dangerously near the sound ing point. This time it seems to be that grand player. Rhotiie Wallace, of the St. Louis Browns. Then, too, reports from Pittsburg, though opti mistic, still have a tang of foreboding about them that cannot be ignored. Wagner’s knee is good to-day. Hoi* long will it last? the fans ask. For physicians, appear to be a unit in de claring that, injuries to one’s knee* have a discomfiting habit of bobbing up a long time after everything seems to have been covered .over about thf. member. • » The fact that Frank Chance prefers to sit on the bench rather than stand in the vicinity of first base shows that the cure is complete.

WOLGAST TO GET $2,500 FOR FRANKIE BURNS GO SAX FRANCISCO, May 3.—Aci Wolgast has signed for another fight. He was matched in San Francisco yesterday to meet Frankie Burns, lightweight, of Oakland. Cal., in a ton-round battle at Oakland May 21. The men will battle at 133 pounds and weigh in at 3 p. m. Wolgast is guaranteed $2,500, with the privilege of accepting 50 per cent of the gross receipts. where he left off. All men are willing to concede that Ping Bodie is a heavy hitter, but his heaviness is not in his hitting. One is led to wonder where Frank Chance would land if some one were to kick the bottom out of the league. J. DUNN MAKING A TWO-BASE HIT. There ires a youth in our town Who had a wondrous bludgeon, lie knocked the hall a hundred miles And still the youth is trudgeon. Luther McCarty’s threat to quit the fighting game leads the innocent by stander to wonder when he ever began. This noise anent the revision of weights in pugilism compels us to note that, as pugilists, 100 per cent of our heavyweights are lightweights. SPEAKING CF THE “NEVER AGAIN” CLUB.
