THE ATLANTA GP20RGIAN AND NEWS. FRIDAY. MAY 9, 1913. L PLAY ILL IT By W. R. Tichenor. B irmingham, ala.. May 9.— George C. Oliver, of Birming ham, won the low medal score in the qualifying round of the Invi tation tournament held over the cour.se 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- four, beating Stahlman by four strokes. Smith Cullutn, 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 fcwo putts for a seventy-three. He '^vas short on his first, 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. Howry Arnold did a seventy-nine and yours truly did an eighty, w-hich 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- ditch qualified In. the third flight and are drawn against each other for the first 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 CLEM SON IN FIRST GAME; SCORE 9 TO 3 AUBURN, ALA., May 9.-7With 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 w’ith 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 three 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 was thrown out overrunning third. Locke was safe on a muff by Oorator, and Davenport scored on Williams’ two-bagger; Graydon hit safely, scor ing Locke and Williams, and scored a ninth run later on Louiselle’s drive on second. CAZEAU AND LE MARIN WIN NEW YORK WRESTLING BOUT NEW YORK, May 9 —George Lu- r!ch, the Russian heavyweight wres tler, Inst two out of three falls to Raymond Cazeau here last night.

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 clash and vim than they displayed in their last four games put together. The final score was: Crackers. 7; Blllikens, 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 ttying to secure Becker from us. He could use him now, as he has no port- side pitcher on his staff. Dobbs said 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 be in the game any day now. The Billikens are without their star pitcher, E. Brown. He is on the sic a ; list, and it looks as if it will be some time before he will be able to don a uniform. Snyder, who twirled against us yesterday, is but a youngster and ( needs more experience. GOTCH AND ZBYSZKO MAY MEET ON MAT IN GOTHAM NEW YORK, May 9.—Plans were laid here to-day for the Frank Gotch- etanislaus Zbyszko championship wrestling match here, and the syn dicate that is back of the proposed plan is almost certain to land th<- clash. It became known here that Gotch has practically given his con- . sent to such a meeting, and Man ager Herman, who guides the affairs * of the Pole, is only too anxious to accept. A purse of $26,000 has been offered for the battle. Virginia League. Roanoke 2. Petersburg 0. Norfolk 2. Newport News 1. Portsmouth 8. Richmond 7. Texas League. Dallas 4. Houston 1.

May 9.—Things have not chaiiwxl grout ly 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 flag. Johnson is pitching wonderful hall, the lx'st of Ids career. The Athletic* 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. lie has gone forty-two Innings without being scored on. and the chances are he will go forty-two more. He has everything in the world, aud his fast ball 1ms 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 liest or worst, it looked like the worst to me. because I was batting against him. He has been calling what he intends to throw against opposing batters. He did this repeatedly in the series with the Yankees. “ ‘Look 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 stuff and get away with it. (I’T’HK Washington team is A of dash and gin full ginger, and is playing fast ball. They will give the Athletics a great light, 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 wlltf 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.” • * * (ITT OW about the Athletics?” iT “We’re In pretty fair shape. Our pitching department caused the 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 hts temperature has been up around 104 for several days. John has never been right since that time he hurt himself in the world’s series with the Giants. His 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. << \ LL the young pitchers look -lx pretty good, and we are bound to get at least one man from the Hock to help out. Bender aud Plank. Houck has been twirling good ball so far, and the other squabs have the ability, but get nervous when the game becomes tight. They will outgrow this. The club is hitting the ball hard, and playing together well. So far we have not had any injured players outside of Coombs’ illness; but let me touch wood, quick." A good line on the strength of the teams In each league can he drawn when the present intersectional se ries is completed. That is what al ways tells on the clubs—the long trips away from home. (Copyright. 1913, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.) S T. LOUIS, May 9.—Leach Cross, of New York, hero of many ring battles, gave Harry Trendali, St. Louis' best lightweight, a sound beating in the feature battle at the Coliseum last night, only to have Ref eree Harry Sharpe hand the verdict iO the home boy. The best that even Trends!!'*, o\v n friends looked for was a draw, and the round by round notes taken by experts showed Cross had a good margin. Trendali left the ring a. badly marked up man. both ns to his t i e and body, while Cross went to hi: dressing room without a scratch. 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 Rede’ five victories. * * • Everybody laughed at Charley Eb- bets last winter when he built a base ball plant with a capacity of 35,000. And now Ebbets is laughing at the erst while laughers. If the Dodgers keep up their winning streak, Ebbets will have to enlarge his park. • * * The Dodgers, by beating the Cubs yesterday, are now within 9 points of second place and 25 points of first place. • • • The White Sox jumped all over the Senators' pitchers yesterday and romped home easy winners. • • • The Jowly Braves bumped the Pirates again yesterday and the Pittsburg fans are wondering Just when their pets are going to stop skidding * * * The Athletics’ victory over the Browns yesterday made the sixth straight win for the Quakertown athletes • • • Johnnie Evers, the “Keystone King.' f >ut up a weird fielding exhibition yes- erday, making three errors, two of which resulted In runB for the Dodgers, enough to give them a victory * • • A great batting rally In the ninth I enabled the Cardinals to snatch a 5 to 4 victory from the Phillies. * * * The major league baseball season to date has furnished some big surprises. In the National league the (Hants and 1'lratc.H were doped to fight it out for first place all the way. Instead, they are wallowing around in the second divi sion, and the Cardinals and Dodgers, who were accorded cellar places, are within a few points of first place. • * * In the American, the Boston Red Sox were expected to repeat All the dope- sters treated them to a flying start. However, the Boston boys are fur down in the second division and the Naps and White Sox, who wereift figured to have a look* in. are snugly ensconced in first division places, within hailing distance of the leading Athletics. • • * But the season is still young WHITE AND BRITTON BOUT WANTED BY G0THAN CLUB CHICAGO. May 9.—A Charlie White-Jack Britton match now Is likely. It w'ould be a certainty but for the fact that the local feather weight is matched to battle Joe Thomas, of New Orleans, In a return go in the latter’s city on May 19. Nate Lewis, who guides' the pugilistic destinies of White, to-day received a wire from Gil Boag, of the Forty-fifth Avenue Athletic Club in New York, offering him May 20 as the date for u match between White and Britton. The terms are perfectly satisfac tory to Lewis and nothing is more pleasing to him than to land such a battle, but he must go through with the Southern battle. Lewi* lost no time in answering Boag, in the hope of securing a later date. 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 rimless rounds. Johnson went to En gel’s rescue Monday against Boston and 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. 'KRYPTOK Old Kyte KRYPTOK INVISIBLE BIFOCALS See the opera through a pair of Kryptok Lenses.
