B irmingham, ala., May
George C. Oliver, of Birming
ham, won the low medal score
in the qualifying round of the invi
tation tournament held over the
course of the Birmingham Country
Club.
In the first round Oliver and F.
C. Stahlman, of Nashville, tied with
seventy-fours. In the play off in the
afternoon Oliver again did seventy-
fotir, beating Stahlman by four
strokes.
Smith Cullum, of Birmingham, had
a fine chance to win the low score
prize, as he was on the eighteenth
green within ten feet of the cup with
two putts for a seventy-three. He
was short on his flr6t, was over with
his second and then missed an easy
one, which would have put him in the
tie.
Captain E. T. Winston led the
Atlanta golfers with a seventy-seven.
He was fifty. Lowry Arnold did a
seventy-nine and yours truly did an
eighty, which puts three Atlanta play
ers in the first flight.
F. G. Byrd and G. W. Adair did
eighty-four and qualified in the sec
ond flight. D. Brown and C. J. Hol-
dltch qualified in the third flight and
are drawn against each other for the
ftr6t match Friday morning.
Walton Griffith also qualified in the
third flight, as did C. E. Corwin. R.
P. Jones and T. B. Paine qualified in
the fourth flight. Dr. Frank Holland
found lots of trouble on his round
and qualified In the fifth flight.
Players from New Orleans, Chat
tanooga, Nashville, Montgomery and
Atlanta are in attendance. The course'
is in good shape and many low-
scores are likely to be made in the
matches to be played.
AUBURN DOWNS CLEMSON IN
FIRST GAME; SCORE 9 TO 3
AUBURN, ALA., May 9.—With
Davis on the mound twirling sensa
tional ball, Auburn won the first game

BILLS TWIT
By Joe Agler.
Crackers* First Baseman.
M ontgomery, ala.. May 9.—
The Crackers finally broke
their losing streak yesterday
and now- hope to win a number of
successive games. The boys played
great ball yesterday and showed more
dash and vim than they displayed in
their last four games put together.
The final score was: Crackers, 7;
Billikens, 3.
Long and Smith divided the honors
of the day, although Gilbert Price
twirled good ball. The former pair
pounded out home runs and helped
pile up runs to our credit.
I look for Bill Smith to send “Buck”
Weaver to the slab this afternoon,
with Graham catching. The latter
has had a long rest and should show
some of his old stuff. Manager Dobbs
Is in a hard way for pitchers and is
Lying to secure Becker from us. He
could use him now, as he has no port
side pitcher on his staff. Dobbs sai i
this morning that he did not know
whom he would use against us this
afternoon.
“Big Bill” Chappelle joined us. yes
terday and looks fit and ready to go
in and win ball games for the Crack
ers. We also expect Harry Bailey to
be with us soon. His ankle Is com
ing around fast now. and he should
in the game any day now.
The Billikens are without their st:i-
pitcher, E. Brown. He is on the sick
list, and it looks as if it will be some j
time before he will be able to don a
uniform. Snyder, who twirled against
us yesterday, is but a youngster and I
needs more experience.

MATHIOTS
BIG LIAGUl GOSSIP
N EW YORK. May 9.—Things have not changed greatly In the American League this week,
except that the Washington club is holding up with a persistence that makes It look
like a strong contender for the ting. Johnson Is pitching wonderful ball, the lH»st of his
career. The Athletics and Red Sox are alarmed.
"I thought he was good last year." an American League player told me the other day In
discussing Johnson, “but I never saw anything like the way he Is traveling this season. He
has gone forty-two Innings without being scored on, and the chances are lie will go forty-two
more. He has everything in the world, and his fast ball has the speed of a bullet and the worst jump or the.
best I ever looked at. It depends upon the point of view whether It is the best or worst. It looked like the
worst to me, because I was hatting against him. He has l>een calling what he intends to throw against opposing
batters. He did this repeatedly in the series with the Yankees. ,
“ 'book out.’ he would say. Here
comes a fast one.’
"Then he would shoot up the ball
with the old jump on it. And the
batter missed it just as widely as if
he had no notion of the prescription.
That Is going some when the pitch
er can tip the batter off to his stufT
and get away with It.

clash. It became known here that

most ante-season fretting. Plank is
going fine, and Bender seems to be
rounding Into form now. Coombs is
the member of the veteran trio who
is to the bad. He is laid up in bed
in Philadelphia with a high fever,
and I don't know what is the mat
ter with him. He has some kind of
fever, and his temperature has been
up around 104 for several days
John has never been right
of dash and ginger, and is that tirae he hurt himself in the
playing fast hall. They will give the | world's series with the Giants. His
Athletics a great fight., but I do not
expect to see the Senators hold the
pace they are setting now.''
That is the opinion of a veteran
American Leaguer, who did not
want his name mentioned.
After pitching in Philadelphia on
Saturday and losing because Cra-
vath, who is hitting very hard this
season.- pumped a home run into the
bleachers. I returned to New York
on Sunday and met “Eddie” Col
lins. the second baseman of the Ath
letics, with whom I have been ac
quainted for some time.
“How does the race look in the
American League?” I asked him,
“talking shop" as usual.
“The Washington club is the one
we’ve got to beat, and I think we
can do it," he said. "They are car
rying lots of ‘pep’ now, but the sup
ply won't last through the season.
The boys- are bound to slow down.
If anything should happen to John
son. they are gone, because he is
carrying the club. Besides Johnson,
Hughes is the only other pitcher we
have had a look at so far. Groom
seems to be traveling along pretty
well, judging from the scores against
other clubs. Cashion is too wild
right now to be of much value. The
rest of the team looks good, with
every man playing at his best at,
present. Let them hit a little slump,
however, and it is going to take a
lot of the pepper out of them.”
• • •
KIT OW about the Athletics?”
rl “We’re in pretty fair shape.
Our pitching department caused the
health has been bad, and during that
rainy spell when we were In Wash
ington he was taken ill and had to
be sent home. It Is problematical
whether he will be in any kind of
shape before the middle of the sum
mer. ‘Connie’ Is worried about him.
ii /\ LL the young pitchers look
jY pretty good, and we are
bound to get at least one man from
the dock to help out Bender ■ and
Plank. Houck has been twirling
good ball so far, and the other
squat's have the ability, but get
nervous when the game becomes
tight. They will outgrow this. The
club is hitting the hall hard, and
playing together well. So far we
have not had any injured players
since ol|ts jq e of Coombs’ Illness, hut let
me touch wood, quick.'
A good line on the strength of the
teams in each league can he drawn
when the present lntersectlonal se
ries is completed. That is what al
ways tells on the clubs—the long
trips away from homo.

FODDER FOR FANS
Johnson, the Indian pitching recruit
of the Reds, looks like one of the best
pitching finds In recent years. He's
won all of the Reds’ five victories.

Everybody laughed at Charley Eb-

The major league baseball season to

In the National League the Giants ami

who were accorded cellar places, are
within a few points of first place.
