GULLS’-AGLEH
Bv Joe Agler.
B irmingham, ala., May 3—The
Cracker* triumphed over Blr-
ham yesterday 9 to R and are
now after Mobile, the league leaders.
Starting lo-morrow we clash with the
Gulls in a four-game series and watch
the dust fly.
AM of us are going into this series
In a "do or die” spirit and unless I
am very' hiuch mistaken we will cop
three of the four battles. We want
to regain the lead we lost last week
and you can bet that the boys will
fight every minute of the time.
It will be Paul Musser on the hur
ling hill" in the first game. Gunn
will do the catching. Musser Is feel
ing flue now. and the way the boys
played against Molesworth’s squad
we should have little trouble In giving
Paul a nice lead to work on.
Bislanri has strengthened the
Crackers 25 per cent. We have been
looking for a good boy to cover the
short field for some time and I think
Bisland will fill the bill.
The Barons put up a good fight
against us for a time to-day, but the
boys finally got to FHtery and forced
his banishment. We made five runs
in the fifth Inning.
Jim Brady was going great after he
struck his stride He blanked Bir
mingham in tile las. three innings.
The victory gives us the edge on the
series with three of the four games
to our credit.
EMORY COLLEGE WANTS
INTERCOLLEGIATE SPORTS
“Emory College needs and should have
intercollegiate athletics." This is the
slogan of most of the Emory alumni
throughout, the entire South and a great
movement is on foot to have the fa
mous old school entered In the S. I. A. A.
At a meeting held at the University
Club of this city last night the matter
was taken up by the alumni and
speeches were made by men in all walks
of life. They were unanimous in their
declaration for intercollegiate sports at
their alma mater.
A short time ago the under gradu
ates of the school sent out 1,200 letters
to alumni all over the United States,
and the replies were 12 to 1 in favor of
intercollegiate athletics.
EXPERT SAYS MARATHON
RUNNING IS BENEFICIAL
BOSTON. May 3.—Marathon races
are beneficial to young athletes rather
than Injurious, in the opinion of Dr.
J. H. Cunningham, Jr., an expert ex
aminer of the Boston Athletic Asso
ciation, as given In the current Issue
of the association’s official organ.
Dr. Cunningham says that during
the seventeen years he has had med- f
leal supervision of the contestants in
the association's annual Marathon he
has not had a single case of even
slight injurious effects resulting from
the race. "**
"The best physical condition is es
sential." said Dr. Cunningham. "In
fact, the conditions of the runners
finishing this 25-mile race are quite
as good as usually seen in runners
after a quarter, half or mile run."
PICTURE SHOWS IN BALL PARK.
CINCINNATI, May 3.— Redland park,
the home of the Cincinnati club, will
be turned into an open-air moving pic
ture theater on evenings from May 5 to
October 1. A screen will be erected in
front of the right field bleachers, and
movies will be shown during the sum
mer nights. Frank Bancroft, the vet
eran secretary of the Reds, is manager
of the enterprise.
BOOE MAY SUPPLANT HOFFMAN.
PITTSBURG, May 3.—If Ar
Hoffman, now covering center field
for the Pirates, falls off in his work
Fred Clarke will supplant him tvitn
a youngster pamed Everett Booe, who
is said to be a speed merchant and
a corking good hitter. Smoky City
critics seem to think that Booe w'Jl
displace Hoffman before Decoration
Day.
COMISKEY TO INCREASE
CAPACITY OF SOX PARK
CHICAGO, May 3.—President Comis-
key, of the Chicago Americans, plans lo
increase the capacity of the South Side
baseball park from 30.000 to 45,000 for
the season of 1914. When the enlarge
ment has been completed the White Sox
park will have the largest capacity of
any baseball plant in the country. Ac
cording to the plans, the grandstand will
seat 25,000. the 50-cent pavilion 10,000
and the 25-cent bleachers. 10,000. The
improvements will cost $150,000.

Carpentier Still an
Idol, Despite Defeats
The Premier French Fighter Pos
sesses a Very Fascinating
Personality.
PARiS. May 3.—-George S. Carpen
tier the pugilistic idol of La Belle
France, possesses a very fascinating
personality. His well-proportioned
frame and handsome features are far
removed from the ordinary conception
of a pugilist. He is a brilliant conver
sationalist and a good all-round
sportsman. Carpentier is a very
wealthy man as a result of his many
fistic combats.
So popular Is he with the fair sex
that hundreds of ladies are invariably
present at any content In which he
figures as a principal.
Not yet twenty years of age. he hat-
had a wonderful ring career. Just
now lie is at the zenith of his fame,
and in all probability he and the
English heavyweight champion. Bom
bardier Wells, will oppose each other
in the near future. His contemplated
return match with Frank Klaus has
