THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. FRIDAY. MAY 0, HUH. LIU PHI ILL IT Oh, It’s Great to Be Married! • • • • • • • • Copyright, 1I1J, International New* Service. • • • • • • • • By George McManus By W. R. Tirhenor. 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 of the series from Clemson here by a score of 9 to 3. Ezell. Clemson’s premier pitcher, started with a rush, pitching no-run. no-hit ball until the fifth inning, striking out ten out of the first sev enteen men before him. He weak ened in the sixth and the Auburn team scored thr«e runs by bunching a single and two two-base hits with an error. With the score tied in the sixth in ning Auburn went ahead in the sev enth. scoring two runs on a hit and a wild throw' to second In order to cinch the game in the eighth Harris singled. Davenport fol lowed with an infield hit, but Harris wns thrown out overrunning third. Locke was':-.ife on a muff by Corator, and Davenport scored on Williams’ two-bagger; Oravdon hit safely, scor ing Locke and Williams, and scored a ninth run later on Loulselle’s drive on second.

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.

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. * * * << r J''HE Washington learn is full Phila. Ch’go. B’klyn. W. L.

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.

Tiie best that even Trendall’s o wi friends looked for was a draw, and the round by round notes taken oy experts showed Cross had a go d margin. Trendall left the ring a hardy marked up man, both as to his fa c and body, while Crow went to his dressing room without a scratch. JOHNSON WITHIN THREE INNINGS OF A -RECORD CHICAGO, May 9.—Walter Johnson needs to pitch only three more score less innings to excel Jack Coombs’ great 1910 record of 46 successive runless rounds. Johnson went to En gel's rescue Monday against Boston aqd blanked the Red Sox for five stanzas, while his helpmates were able to score two runs and win in the twelfth round. Johnson has not yielded an earned run this season, although he was scored on his first inning out.
