t THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, MONDAY, MAY 12, 1013. I ILL GET E ’Twas Crool, but Jeff Couldn’t Help It By “Bud” Fisher E —JOE AGLER. M emphis, tenn.. May 12.— Billy Smith will use Chap- pelle or Brady to open up the Memphis series, with Graham catch ing. The Crackers romped on the Billi- ken hurlers yesterday and scored an easy victory, Gilbert Price won both games won by the Crackers in this series. We hit the ball to all corners of the lot, for home runs, three-base hits, two-base hits and singles. Harry Welchonce had a great day, both at bat and in the. field* He got four hits out of four Hips to the plate, one being a home run, and pulled down line drives that looked' impossible. He had a great day. Tommy Long nearly hit the “bull” again. His home run just missed the. big sign by inches.. Bill Bailey got back in the game and was robbed of a home run by a gTeat catch by Kutina. Take it all in all, the Crackers hit the ball as they should, and we feel confident we will keep going, now that we have started. Wally Smith turned his ankle and will probably be out of the game for a few days. George Rohe will go to third until Wally is able to cavort around Jiis old position. The Crackers travel nearly 1.400 miles in tha next week, including Montgomery to Memphis, then to New Orleans and back to Atlanta. The Crackers do not hope to re gain first position till we reach home, but will hold second place, and when Mobile gets on the road they will not win so many games. With us at home we should regain the position Billy Smith's ball club should hold. Baseball Summaries. SOUTHERN LEAGUE. Games Monday. Atlanta at Memphis. Chattanooga at New Orleans.

Standing of the Clubs. Season's Sensation Is W. Johnson »|*#*j* ^*#4* *$•••£• Dodgers Stir Things Up a Bit, Too By Percy H. Whiting. F AR be it from us to embark on that time-honoTed and worn argument as to the Greatest Pitcher in the World, BUT— Just back from a chain-lightning jaunt through the upper right-hand corner of the big league territory, we voice one fact-proved conclusion: that Walter Johnson is the only genu ine sensation of a good, brisk season. When Johnson at Chicago Satur day completed 52 2-3 innings with out allowing a run he added further proof to a well-known fact, said w.-k. fact being that there’s only one great est pitcher in the world alive to-day, and his initials are W. J. Don’t forget, in giving Johnson his due that Walter’s support is nothing amazing. The Senators lack about ten ball players of having a great ball club. The catching staff has wabbled for years. Schaeffer at first is no Daubert. Laporte is—well, he's just Laporte, which isn’t anything so marvelous. The outfield consists largely of Milan. McBride is a grand fielder, but a fright at hitting. When Walter Johnson wins a ball game he wins it all by himself. And it takes a pretty good pitcher to do that in anybody’s league. * * * RTHE SENATORS play good ball * behind Johnson,” you say. Sure they do. W r hy shouldn’t they? Any old team cab play pretty good ball behind a pitcher who NEVER flickers. But it is thunder to pitch ball all The time that's air-tight. That’s the advantage Mathewson has had all these years. His team now and then won a game FOR HIM. Johnson, when he does win, takes no chances, but keeps ’em won all the wav. Three and a third more runless in nings and Johnson reaches Doc White's world’s record. • • • N EW YORK, it appear^ to me /as a bit bilious on the subject of baseball. With the Yanks last, the Giants nowhere and Brooklyn be neath their dignity, the fans of the metropolis haven’t a blamed thing to console them. The opinion prevails that the Giants are ,a problem. As for the. Yanks, everybody seems to feel that Chance will make a team of them in due time. It really is amazing the confidence they feel in the Peerless Leader. As to just what’s the matter with the Yanks, not evep Chance him self seems to know. They are joy- scouting a trifle too much, no doubt. Chance’s recent order against morn ing poker games took out one of the many kinks. The team was bottling itself up every morning and absorb ing too much tobacco smoke and too little oxygen. The real trouble with the Yanks lies deep. It must be due to rotten spirit somewhere. Chance will fire a lot of men or tlfrow the fear of Gehenna into them before he gets a ball club. M AYBE you don’t think that placid burg of Brooklyn isn't "hawg wild” over its Dixie-developed ball club. The idea of Brooklyn sticking right up around the top, with the season a month advanced, is hard to appreciate. About all Dahlin needs now is for "Red” Smith’s annual hitting streak to cr6p out. That is all that is lack ing. Jake Daubert and Zack Wheat, two other former Southern Leaguers pn the same team, are decidedly off in hitting, too; but they are the sort who always manage to get back on after a bit. Jake is suffering from an attack of "lambasteit,” and when he eases off a shade in his efforts, his average will go up like a baloon—and stay up. Bob Fisher, the Nashville kid, is not only as good as he ever was. but he’s considerably better. The stride he is hitting now will bring him high honors. Of Rucker, nothing need be said, except thJM. he shows no sign what ever of fading. Lefty Allen, late of Mobile, is rather better this year than ever. Strange to say, these grand southpaws have not won a game yet. Rucker has dropped three tough ones. Allen Is always a slow starter. Dahlen still believes he can make something out of “Bull” Wagner, his New Orleans recruit. This one is big and tough, and may develop. Of all the Southerners on Dahlen’s staff, none has been quite the surprise this season that Charley Stengel, the ex-Billikin, has. This lad has won several games with timely, screaming hits; has cracked out two that nicked the “bull” sign and has fielded sen sationally. 1 can’t help feeling that Stengel is playing a good bit over his stride and is due a slump. But, then, you can’t tell. No rules hold in Brooklyn. Look at Zack Wheat as an example— a shine in the Southern, a star in the National. It would be a fine, amazing thing if the Brooklyn club should make a big showing. But, then, Washington did last year, so you never can tell. Sporting Food i —By GEORGE E. PHAIR > HAS BEEN. Time was when Jimmy tiheckard took his stand And lowbrows hit the hall to heat the hand. He ncvei' moved, hut stood there with a smile And waited as it nestled in his hand. Tims was when Mordy Brown stood on the mound; The sacks were full and no one could be found To stop the swats—he shot them at the plate And Cobb and Crawford rolled them on the ground. * l sit to-day and freeze my youthful frame, And yell till my esophagus is lame, But, Oh! to see Jim Sheekard out in left As Brown comes walking in to save the game. There are several things which fail to excite our ambition, one of which is to throw the first ball at the first game of the Federal League. George Stovall is a rude person and all that. The chief fault to be found with him is that he played with the wrong team. If Mr. 8t,ovall had been playing with a New York team he would have been slapped on the wrist and suspended a whole day—if the day happened to fall on Sunday. It is well to make an example of a ball player if he plays for a magnate who will stand for It. The fact that St. Louis lost the first game in the Federal league is merely a reversion to type. St. Ix)uis does not feel comfortable unless it is at the bottom of things. One is not surprised to hear that Ritchie demands $15,000 for a conflict in New York. If Willie does not have a care he may get himself into a fight. We arc about to have motorcycle races in our midst. We presume that they will be attended by the same persons who pay regular money to see wrestling matches. It is getting so these days that a team that Frank Chance beats Is accused of having the milk of human kindness. Bonesetter Reese bursts out with the information that dandelion greens will cure liver trouble, but he fails to state what will cure dandelion grec*ns. Frank cnance arises to remark that he will not trade Hal Chase for Ty Cobb. Even David Harum would find It hard to trade a jackknife for a Derby winner. W. L. P C.

MAND0T AND ANDERSON WORK HARD FOR SCRAP I,OS ANGELES, .May 12.—Joe Man- dot and Bud Anderson ‘hoth went, through hard workouts yesterday for their scheduled 20-round contest a week from to-morrow nipht at Ver non. * Johnny Dundee and his manager. Scotty Monteith, returned yesterday morning from the East. Dundee will shortly take up quarters al Verde- to train for hi:, match at Vernon with Ad Wolgast on Jimu m. FODDER FOR FANS By shutting out the White Sox Sat urday Walter Johnson, of the Senators, annexed a record of 52 2-3 scoreless in nings. breaking the old record of 4a. But just as soon as Johnson had turned the trick somebody in Chicago declared that “Doc” W'hite, nine years ago, had pitched 54 or 66 innings without being scored upon. * ♦ * Joe Jackson, of the Naps, hammered out a four-base swat yesterday when the bases were filled. He also got a double and two singles out of four times up. * « » For the benefit of those interested it may be said that C. Webb Murphy has not as vet looped the loop from the top of the Brooklyn grandstand, in keeping with his promise. Nor is there any rea son to hope that he will. • • * Otis Clymer's inability to play with the. Cubs Saturday was due to the fact that he ate a $3 steak in one of the gilded grills fn New York and right away got ptomaine poisoning, * * * The Naps so far have refused to "crack,” as has been widely predicted. Maybe after all, they’ve discarded their old and famous trick, and- will become real pennant contenders. While dis cussing the Naps, It might be well to look into the record of one J. Birming ham, manager. * • * When Birmingham took charge of the Naps late last season they were trying their hardest to skid out T>f the per centage column. Immediately thereafter they started^ to win and when* the sea son' ended they had a record of 26 vic tories against 6 defeats. * * * Jack Coombs, the star twirler of the Athletics, is recovering from his ill - nee*, but will not he able to get back into thfc game until June. * . * • The Red Sox came up from behind in the game with , the Tigers yesterday, making three runt>. tying the sepre in tho;.ninth inning. They scored the win ning run in the tenth. * * * Falkonberg's victory for tlm Naps over the Yankees yesterday makes his sixth straight win of the season. Only Walter Johnson, of the Senators, with seveti victories, leads this twirling rec ord. * * * The showing Jim Thorpe, the dis qualified Olympic athlete, has made in exhibition gatne9 has caused Giant fans to be.g .\frGraw to place him in the regular line-up. * * * -** Shouldn’t the Cubs be called the veterans? In their line-up are Schulte, F.vers, Keulbach, Ritchie, Archer. Cor- riden, Bresnahan and a few others who have been playing for several genera tions. * * * Speaker, Lewis and Hendriksen. of the Red Sox, are poling for a combined average of about .360, yet the team is down in sixth place. * * * The Browns, without the aid of their suspended manager, Georg<\ Stovall, had an easy time trimming the Senators yesterday. * • * Ed Walsh pitched for the Sox yester day against he Athletics, and won. SIX THOUSAND FANS TURN OUT AT MOBILE MOB1I.E, ABA., May 12—Mobile and Chattanooga broke even in yes terday’s double-header. The crow/d was almost equal to that of the Sun day’s opener between Atlanta and the locals. It was estimated at near ly 6,000. , Chattanooga took the first game by a score of 1 to 0, while the last was a veritable batfest for the locals, who garnered hit after hit from Troy's delivery and piled up thirteen. Hogg lost his first game of the season. He was found for five singles, fanned four and walked three. There are various reasons why Charlie Dooin's team should win this year, one of which is that Horace Fogel is not in the way. “A club owner must think,” quoth Charles Webb Murphy. If Charles thinks before he speaks he does a heluva lot of thinking. Some day we shall scrape up nerve enough to ask a motorcyclist whether he has been sentenced to it or whether It is his own free will. THE ANCIENT MARINER.

May 12.— The triangular Harvard-Princeton- ldiversity of Pennsylvania race, post poned from Saturday, will be rowed to-day at 4 p. m. Dr. flpaeth, of Princeton, early to-day endeavored to persuade Dean Briggs, of Harvard, to allow the race to be rowed at 7 or 10 a. m. All three crews were willing to row at the last mentioned time. The dean refused, claiming that it would hurt the attendance in the college classes. DENNY VS. BRONSON.

The meet was called off by Georgia faculty, who base their claim on the fact that most of the track stars are on the baseball team and a meet at this time would interfere with the team's chances in the games with Tech in Atlanta next Friday and Saturday. The Georgia boys have devoted most of their time to baseball practice and the track team is not in shape to meet any one right now. FOUR MOTORCYCLE RIDERS ARRIVE FOR THE BIG MEET Four of the speed merchants who will compete on Jack Prince’s motor cycle track on the old circus grounds arrived in the city Sunday, and were on the roads around Atlanta all dur ing the day, tuning up their racing machines. The one-quarter-mile saucer will be in readiness for them to practice on by Friday. Mr. Prince announced last night that he would have the track proper completed by that time and would then start work on the seating. Most of the famous motorcycle rid ers of this country will be in At lanta for the race meet, and some fine sport is promised. Records are also sure to go glimmering. Mr. Prince estimates that the riders will average 90 miles an hour on the saucer. SHERIDAN DECIDES TO GIVE UP ALL ATHLETICS NEW YORK. May 12. Because it interferes with his job. Martin Sheri dan, policeman, former champion discus thrower, has decided to drop out of athletics. “You can state positively for me,” Sheridan is accredited with saying, “that I am through with competition for good. I would like to take part in the games, but I find it inter feres with my job, so I have decided to cut it out. There is no doubt I could go back into competition and do as well as I did. I went out to Celtic Park the other day and throw the discus 13 feet with all my clothes on. 1 will probably go out there sometimes for exercise, but that will be all. ELBERFELD ATTACKED BY FANS; “KID” WINS MOBILE, ALA., May 12. Fred Murphy and Sam Pritchard, two young white men, were arrested on the other side of the ball park yes terday after the double-header, ap/ docketed for disorderly conducL^v, the police station. Ft seems tha# n took it upon themselves to/get at Manager Elberfeld, of the Chatta nooga team, for the mixup with Stock in the game, and assailed him.

Evans Writes of Eyesight in Golf *J«#*{* •»*•*!* *1*§4* *£••*1* vt*h MostPlayersDependOn One Optic By “Chick” Evans. C HICAGO, ILL., May 10.—There has been a great deal of dis cussion of late in the British golf magazines and newspapers con cerning what is called the “master eye in golf.” This phrase seems to indicate that each player has one eye which serves better than the other in the all-important act of keeping the eye on the ball. British periodi cals therefore discourse at length upon the subject and advise a study of one's best optic. An unintentional experiment was made in England a short time ago during a team match by a member of the Cambridge Uni versity team. One eye of the gentle man had been undergoing medical treatment and at the time of the competition was bandaged closely. In spite of this handicap he halved the match with his opponent and played splendid golf at times; on occasion, however, he found difficulty in judg ing distances. • • • B EING interested in thh subject I made a few experiments myself to determine which was my master eye, and 1 have concluded that it is my left. Perhaps 1 cock my head back a little on the back swing and on the down swung to the actual hitting; at any rate, I seemed in my experiment to make a greater use of my left eye. I think Valle’s weight testing machine could bo used profit ably in this discussion, because if a player sways backward the line from his left eye to the ball is shorter and less oblique. ,In any inclination there is a tendency to shorten the line from the left eye to the hall. Of course, I am arguing from the standpoint of a right-handed golfer. I should think the right eye would he more impor tant to the left-handed player. In the execution of the longer shots the ball is played so far away from the body that one can not get both eyes immediately over the hall and allow the club to lie naturally, which, by the way, is one of the most im portant things to be borne in mind. In cases where there is a marked dis crepancy iii the strength of the eyes the stronger must be necessarily most favored. • • * O NE of my great little rules has always been to keep my eyes In such a position that lines of equal length drawn from each eye will meet at a certain point on the ball. In thin case, of course, no eye can be called the master eye. In putting, the hardr e.st shot of the game, 1 try to keep my eyes directly over the ball. The stroke is so short that it would be hard for me to tell which eye is the better one. Maybe I could do bet ter with only one eye; that seems to be the only thing I have not tried in my fruitless efforts to learn how to putt. Those players who wear glasses must have special difficulties to over come when playing golf, and it would be enlightening to know what these are and how they are surmounted; for the whole subject of the applica tion of sight to golf playing is an in teresting one. EDDIE M’GOORTY SIGNS FOR BOUT WITH HOUCK DENVER, COLO., May 12.—Eddie McGoorty, of Oshkosh, has feigned to meet Leo Houck, of Boston, in a 10- round bout May 27.

May 12.-Gun boat Smith, in training here for hi?' bout with Jess Willard, hunted around to-day for more oparring partners. Smith has battered up all the avail able huskies and none of the aspir ing pugilists in this section care about swapping punches with him.

May 12.—Luther Mc Carty’s bout with Arthur Pclkey at Calgary on May 24, will be nothing more than a training stunt, accord ing to the champion, who is in Chi- cdgo-iwith Manager MeCarney. On his arrival here, MeCarney found • telegrams awaiting him from Promoters Coffroth and MeCarney of the Pacific Coast clubs asking the chiimpion to meet the winner of the “Gunboat” Smith-Jess' Willard fight to be staged in San Francisco, May 17. MeCarney said he thought Smith rto great attraction on the coast, and that of the two fighters he preferred .to have„his< man meet Willard. While on the Pacific Coast read the San Francisco Examiner i A CHILD SAVED FROM A HORRIBLE DEATH LITTLE ANNIE DONALDSON, AGE 8 YEARS, NO. 7 RICHARDS ST.. CORNER TOMBLIN ST., LITTLE DAUGHTER OF MR. AND MRS. S. P. DONALDSON, AFTER 3 YEARS’ BATTLE SAVED AS IF BY A MIRACLE. Words can not describe or express the supreme feeling of joy and happi ness which to-day Mlled the hearts of Mr. and Mrs. S. P. Donaldson, who re side at No. 7 Richards Street, New Era division,* this city. Little Annie, 8 years old. not larger than an ordi nary child of 5 years, was saved from death and restored to perfect health in a seemingly miraculous manner. For three ’"ears this little child has been surc-ring from some inexplain- able cause Her stomach would at times bloat to immense proportions, high fevers would frequently attack her. followed by dreadful chills or bilious attacks, her mind was clear, but her memory weak, her sleep rest less. sometimes screaming out, almost frightened to death. Her breath, es pecially in the mornings, was very foul, dark circles under the eyes, very nervous, her appetite was changeable, ravenously hungry at times, at other times the sight of food was nauseating. All the careful attention which loving parents could bestow was given to her, and all modest attempts were resorted to, but the child's condition grew worse The mother did what hundreds of other people were doing. She called at Coursey & Munn’s drug store and obtained a treatment of the Quaker Extract. With anxious mind she watched for results, after the child began taking the wonderful remedy, and what were the results? To the amazement of the whole family, the child expelled a monster tapeworm, head and all complete, alive and- squirming. It is hard to believe this monster is 41 feet in length How many children and people are being tortured by parasites" and how they go on for years dosing and doping for what they think is some form of stomach trouble when it really Is worms of some kind that Is causing all your trouble! If it is worms, Quaker Extract will expel them. Tf it is caused from other causes, such as catarrh. Indigestion, constipation, the Quaker Extras will do more for you than any other remedies on the market to-day. This case is so remarkable that many people will doubt it, yet all are at libertv to investigate, write, phone, wire or cal. at the child’s residence, the above address. The father is a camenter by occupation, was born and lived most of his life here in At lanta, and he has a host of friends and they will vouch for his word. The Health Teacher said the people would soon realize the power ot the Quaker Remedies, and such cases as this should certainly convince every sensible person. Once more the Health Teacher recommends the Quaker Extract and Oil of Balm to anv person who may suffer with rheu matism. kidney, liver, stomach, blad der* or blood trouble, and will expel worms. So call to-day at Coursey A Munn’s drug store, 29 Marietta Street, and obtain these wonderful Quaker Rem edies. We, prepay express charges on all orders of $3 or over.
