7 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1913. L PLAY ILL IT By W. R. Tiehenor. B irmingham. ala., May 9.— Georg* C. Oliver, of Birming ham, won the low medal score in the qualifying round of the invi tation tournament held over the oourme 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 Oltver again did seventy- four, beating Stahlman by four strokes. Smith Cullum, of Birmingham, had a fine chance to win the low score prise, 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 first, was over with his second and then missed an easy one, which would have put him In the tie. Captain JE. 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- 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 DOWNSCLEMSON 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. Eaell, Clemson's premier pitcher, started with a rush, pitching no-run. no-hit bail 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 cincli the game in the eighth Harris singled, Davenport fol lowed with an infield hit, but Harris was thrown out overrunning third. Is^cke was safe on a muff by Corator. and Davenport scored on Williams’ two-bagger; Graydon hit safely, scor ing Locke and Williams, and scored a ninth run later on Loulselle’s drive on second. OTTO JORDAN MAKES A BIG HIT WITH VALDOSTA FANS VALDOSTA, GA„ May 9.—Otto .Iordan made good here with a ven geance Thursday. Valdosta fans never saw such pepper as the locals displayed, with the old Atlanta second baseman cavorting around the key stone sack. Otto played an error less game, got two hits, stole a base and scored a run. Heretofore the locals have been in different. but Otto swears that he will "can” the first man he thinks is loafing. Ferris. th,e new first baseman brought here by Jordan. looks good. Valdosta business men will back the new manager to the limit, and if players of championship caliber are available the money Is here to pur chase them. THURSDAY'S GAME. The Box Score.

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 Smthi 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 trying to secure Becker from us. He could use him now. as ho has no port- side pitcher on his staff. Dobbs sai l j 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 1 In and win ball games for the Crack ers. We also expect Harry Bailey to ; b»- 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 sta: J pitcher, E. Brown. He is on the sicK 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 j needs more experience.

Thtmcs 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 flag. Johnson is pitching wonderful ball, the l>est of Ills career. The Athletics and Red Sox are alarmed. ”1 thought he was good last year,” an American League player told me the other day In discussing Johnson, "but 1 never saw anything like the way he ts traveling this season. He has gone forty-two innings without l>elng scored on. ami the chances are he will go forty-two more. He has everything in the world, and his fast ball bas 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, liecause I was batting against him. He has been calling what tie Intends to throw against opposing batters. He did tills repeatedly in the series with the Yankees. “ Look out,’ he would say. Here comes a fast one.’ "Then he would shoot up the hall with the old jump on it. And the batter missed it just as widely as if he had no nolion of file prescription. That is going some when (he pitch er can tip the hatter off to his’stuff and get away with it. *< r T' HE Washington A of team is full <f dash and ginger, and is playing fast ball. They will give the Athletics a great fight, but 1 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 nis 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. I he 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?" 1 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, hut the sup ply won’t last through the season. The boys are hound 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." * * * KTTOW about the Athletics?" I I •• 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 his temperature has been up around 104 for several days. John has never been right since* “"£j d ““ of "coombs’ illness; but' let << \ Ll the young pitchers look pretty good, and -we are bound to get at least one man from the flock to help out Bender and Plank. Houck has been twirling good ball so far. and the other squabs have the ability, hut 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 hud any Injured players 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 lvind of shape before the middle of the sum mer. ‘Connie’ Is worried about hint. 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 ts completed. That is what al ways tells on the clubs—the long trips away from home (Copyright, 1913. by the McClure News paper Syndicate.) FODDER FOR FANS Johnson, tlie 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- betts 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 Cuba yesterday, are now within 9 points of second place and 25 points of first place. * • * * The White Sox Jumped all over thp Senators’ pitchers yesterday and romped home easy winners • • • 'I’be lowly Braves bumped the Pirates again yesterday and the Pittsburg ions 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 athlete#* * * # Johnnie Evers, the “Keystone King, put up a wierd fielding exhibition yes terca.v, making three errors, two of which resulted In runs for the Dodgers, enough to give them a victory. * • * A great hatting rally In the ninth 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 Giants and Pirates 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 far down In the second division and the Naps and White Sox, who weren’t 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 S T. LOUIS, May Leach Cross, of New York, hero of many ring battle*, gave Harry Trendall, 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 to the home boy. The best that even Trendall’s own friends looked for was a draw, and the round by round notes taken by experts showed Cross had a good margin. Trendall left the ring a badly marked up man, both as to his* fa. e and body, while Cross went' to his dressing room without a scratch. WHITE AND BRITTON BOUT WANTED BY G0THAN CLUB CHICAGO, May 9.—A Charlie White-Jack Britton match now is likely. It would 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 guide* 1 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 a match between White and Britton. The terms are perfectly satisfac tory to Lewis and nothing 1s more pleasing to him than to land such a battle, but he must go through with the Southern battle. Lewis lost no time In answering Boag. in the hope of securing n later date. JOHNSON WITHIN THREE INNINGS OF A RECORD CHICAGO, May 9.—Walter Johnson needs to pitch only three more scorn* less innings to excel Jack Coombi^ great 1910 record of 46 successive runless 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 INVISIBLE BIFOCALS See the opera through a pair of Kryptok Lenses.
