G REAT preparations are under
way for the first scries of the
Tech-Georgia baseball games
at Athens on Friday and Saturday of
this week.
At Tech Flats yesterday morning .*
monster demonstration of the ever
lasting, never-say-dle spirit was
made at chapel when all the students
signified their intention of attending
the Saturday game.
A special train will „be chartered
and, with the band, the trio to Ath
ens will be made at 11 o’clock. Stu
dents will be excused from classes on
this special occasion, and Athens will
be virtually overrun with the Yellow
Jackets. A goodly number will leave
on Friday to be on hand for the Fri
day game.
Jackets Going Strong.
The Jackets were given a stiff
workout yesterday afternoon and
showed up well after their struggle
with Sewanee on Saturday. The reg
ular varsity line-up was played, with
the exception of E. Montague, whose
place at the second sack is ably taken
care of by Captain F. Montague.
Pitts, the Jackets’ southpaw, had a
good workout and showed up well.
He will doubtless get a chance either
Friday or Saturday to prove his
worth. He is steady, has plenty of
1 speed and is a strong batter, which
is something unusual for a pitcher,
ff not on the mound, he will probably
gather them up in right field, and he
, can do that, too.
Dope Doesn’t Count Here.
A comparison or even a near-com
parison of any sort of a Tech-Georgia
game is not worth the ink it would
take to print it, and baseball is ni
exception. All previous rlope, luck,
material and general all-round play
ing are cast to the four winds before
i the schedule of these games Is even
made up.
However, this year Georgia has the
only advantage in having played and
! won more games, while Tech has omv
won the series from Sewanee and
! Clemson, with single games from
^Mercer and Auburn. Georgia has won
from all these, coupled with wins
from other teams and a long, hard
; knock on the road which abounded in
| experience. Naturallv, this fills the
! lads from Athens with confidence.
Already touted as the Southern cham
pions. they are anxious to keep up the
name, and this they will try to do
aaginst the Jackets. They have every,
thing to lose, while the Techs have
nothing.
Since the Alabama Tames the Jack
ets have been fighting harder and
stronger than ever before, and rt
, present are showing the goods. Their
■ batting, base running and general all -
round playing has developed wonder
fully, and they are bound to be in
| top-notch condition by the first game
j on Friday.
Georgia’s Pitchers Strong.
Post-season dope had it that
neither team has pitchers that cou;d
be depended upon. That has been
knocked aside by Corley and Morris,
of the Red and Black aggregation,
who have been pitching good ba'l.
The latter pitched a no-hit game
against Vanderbilt, and Corley also
has pitched Jam-up ball all season.
Eubanks has proved himself to be
a steady pitcher, ready to go in at
any pinch. During Hie Sewanee se
ries he pitched thirteen innings, or
part of two games, allowing but three
hits. All season he has been keep
ing his opponents’ hits well scattered
and has not allowed over seven hits
in any game. Pitts is also on the up
grade and can be expected to cut
loose some stuff when oaJled on.

THE NS, GA., May 6.—For one
time during the many years
that Tech and Georgia have
met in battle for athletic supremacy
there is a feeling of confidence in the
Red and Black camp that Georgia
will take the series from the Yellow
Jackets this season, and should do it
i handily. Although such a feeling as
this pervades the entire atmosphere
around the Classic City it does not
mean that Cunningham and his slug
gers are going into the series over
confident.
That old story of upset dope is lia
ble to be called In to make explana
tions after most any old game when
Georgia and Tech are contenders, yet
there is even money here that Geor
gia will make a clean sweep of the
four games.
The Red and Black team will miss
the services of Covington on third
base, as he has been the sensation of
two seasons at this corner and pos
sesses one of the best baseball beads
and batting eyes on the squad. Hol
den, captain of the scrubs, has filled
the place creditably in the most se
ries. but is woefully weak with the
stick, and his inexperience on foreign
territory will be a point in favor
of the Jackets, who usually want to
swarm and buzz very evidently on
the third base line.
Henderson May Play Third.
Henderson has about recovered
from his case of mumps, and Cun
ningham has announced that he will
give him a try-out in Covington’s old
place. Since Bowden has gone to first
he has been leading the team in bat
ting, and the placing of Henderson
on third will give him another effec
tive hitter* especially against Tech’s
southpaw*. “Tiny” has fattened his
average against every left-hander he
has faced this season.
If the Georgia men can keep up
their w r onderful batting it will take
great playing to head them off.
Team Hits Terrifically.
Though the twenty games played
to the Washington and Lee series,
eight regulars were batting over .300,
while the average for the entire team
was 310. A total of 222 hits have
been made by the Georgians, which
counted for 137 runs.
Davis, of Auburn, has been the only
Southern pitcher that has been able
to halfway stop the terrific slugging
of McW r horter’s “Southern Champs,”
as they are now being called by loyal
Georgians far and near.
Corley will be Cunningham’s se
lection on the mound i#i the opening
game here Friday, while big John
Morris will hurl the second. The
fact that the men of Athens have run
off with every series played is not
allaying any of the spirit, and the
chances are that the largest, crowds
that have ever visited Sanford Field
will be on hand for the contests, es
pecially w’ith Saturday a gala day.
TIMMY SIIECKARD compiled a record in a game lafet week that
probably never has been duplicated and never will. He went to
/ bat four times, had 24 balls pitched to him, still never made
a single swing and the Ump had to call every pitch.
In the first with three on, Jim had two successive strikes call
ed on him, and then waited for four successive balls, forcing Hug
gins home with a run. In the third Jim waited for another 3-2
count and then was called out on a strike that easily was 6 inches
on the inside.
And It was the same in the sixth
and seventh. The two reached
3-2, when Carnnitz dished up wide
ones on each occasion and Sheckard
walked, getting three free passes to
first, a strike-out, 24 balls pitched
to him and without swinging at a
single one.

O NCE upon a Time a Promoter
grew Tired of standing on the
Side Lines and Rubbering while Oth
ers sent their Treasurers to the
Banks with .Gate Receipts, and after
having a Cnat with Himself He de
cided that he would Tear the Velvet
off his Antlers and Hj>rn into the Di
vision of the Spoils. • Despite the Pro
tests of the Frayed and Ragged Mag
nates He got the Hunch that there
was Room for Another to starve in
the Baseball World.
Staking Himself to a Handful ot
Schedules and a Cluster of Railroad
Routes He took a load off his Feet,
and a brief Half Hour with the Pen
cil and Slate gave him a List of
Towns that were Starving for the
National Game. Able to read, He
was Hep to all of the Stuff that was
Annoying to the Expert Scribes and
the Common Run of Fanatics, and
being Anxious to Please he Framed
up the Nifty Stunt of cutting It all
out.
There would be no White Slaves in
his Grand Aggregation. The Reserve
Clause would be Sidestepped, and at
the End of a Season the Performers
could go out and get Jobs with other
Teams or with the Street Cleaning
Department. At the Swell Beaneries
the Rube Performers would be
taught how to Stab Peas and other
Rolling Food with a Fork. Tango
Dancing would be made a Cinch for
Them to Fritter away Their Hours
of Leisure, and ao< for the Fanatics,
Real Seats would be Held when Re
served, and Gun Men Ushers would
be barred from the Ball Yards. If
there was Anything left undone thu
Fanatics would always find the Man
agement willing to Remedy the De
fects.
All in All, the Promoter haul a
Grand Little Idea, and then He pre
pared to get Busy. His Announce
ment was sent to the Press and the
next Morning Sixteen Funny Men in
Sixteen Separate and Distinct Sec
tions of the Country took a Crack
at the Wild Idea. The Frost that
was spattered about the collection
of States wouldn’t have given His
League a Chance if the Performers
had been Gum Prop Fed Guides from
the Far North* The Managers of
the News Services checked up and
found that it would Tear still more
from Their Appropriations if They
sent out the Stories of the Games
and the Word was given to Forget
the New League.
Learning of all this the Frayed aiifl
Ragged Baseball Bosses, who had be
come Horny Handed through dealing
out the Kale necessary to provide
Entertainment for the Beloved Fa
natics, rejoiced because Popular Ap
proval had been Withheld, and One
who would have become a Brother
to Them had been Forced to keep
his Money.

Candler and Street
Car Officials Confer
Company Reported Willing to Meet
Rush Traffic Suggestions More
Than Half Way.
P. S. Arkwright, president, and the
traffic officials of the Georgia Rail
way and Power Company held a long
conference with C. M. Candler, chair
man of the Georgia Railroad Com
mission, in reference to the conges
tion of street car traffic in Atlanta
during rush hours.
Statistics recently given the com
mission, showing the fare register
readings at terminals and cross
town points for a period of a week,
were considered. -
Mr. Candler submitted suggestions
and criticisms. It is understood that
the officials are ready to meet the
commission's suggestions more than
half-way. Increased service, it is
said, has bien delayed only to see
what the commission intended to
order. •

Rabun County is at white heat, and
the old feud between the towns of
Wiley and Mathis is at its height. The
vital question of which place gets a
regular railroad station with an agent
in charge is to be determined this
week by the Georgia Railroad Com
mission.
Wiley claims the greater population.
Within a radius of one mile from
Wiley there are 23 persons living, it
has been «hown conclusively. It claims
also to be “the natural center of the
cow movement,” whatever that may
mean.
Mathis claims that it is due to be
come a great summer resort because
of the beauty of the lake created there
by the Georgia Railway and Power
Company’s dara.
Photographs of the surrounding
country, letters from almost every
State between Ohio and the District
of Columbia, a mass of evidence and
many personal appeals have reached
the Railroad Commission on the sub
ject.
