Bv Jop Aglf-r.
M emphis, tens., May it.
Fuechner will try to stop the
Crackers’ losing streak to-day.
with Dunn receiving Bernhard will
rely on Kroh or Newton to take the
last game of the series.
The Trackers were defeated yester
day in the lust two innings after
having made seven runs.
Smith sent Price, his lone south
paw, to the mound at the start, but
he weakened in the eighth and was
pounded to all corners of the lot.
Musser was put in to check the rally,
but he, was wild and passed one man
and made a wild pitch, so Chappelle
was rushed to the rescue and he, too,
was liberal. The base on balls habit
must be catching, as “Big Bill” passed
a man with the bases full and tied
up the game. Then a long sacrifice
fly to center won the game for Mem
phis and we were defeated In another
one of those hard luck games.
Smith changed his batting order
yesterday, but it made no difference.
\Ya could not make enough runs to
win In the last three games we have
made 21 runs, hut were defeated In
all three.
Wally Smith continues to hit the
hall hard, and he is respected by the
pitchers. He was given his base on
balls twice yesterday when a hit
meant runs.
We are fighting hard to win and
hope to stay above the .500 mark. If
our pitchers can hold the Turtles to
four or five runs we will probably
win to-day's battle.

Georgia Batting Order Is Changed
© © Q © ©' 0 ©
Morris Picked to Pitch Saturday
A thens. ga„ May 15.—since
Georgia has been forced to the
last ditch and has been put on
the defensive by their ant lent and
honorable technological rivals in At
lanta, the team and everybody in
Athens have taken on a Napoleonic
spirit and are more determined now
than ever to win the Friday and
Saturday battles.
Hundreds of loyal fans will accom
pany the team to Atlanta Friday
morning, while Saturday the town
will be practically depopulated. A
sjseclal train will carry the Georgia
students over for the day.
Coach Plans Attack.
Coach Cunningham is planning his
attack for these games as carefully
as a general would the maneuvers
upon which depended the freedom of
Ms country. He lectures to his men
every afternoon as diligently as a
college professor does to a class of
freshmen and no angle of the ene
my’s style of play is escaping his no
tice.
Cunningham has switched his hat
ting order and, in the attempt to get
more effective hit*era on the team,
has rammed Bowden in right field
and shoved him into second place in
tiie batting list. This gives him three
fast men in (linn, Bowden and Mc
Whorter to “get on.” with Hutchens
and Henderson to hit them in Both
the last two did good work wit^i the
ash in the games here and they are
counted on to keep up their heavy
batting in Georgia’s last desperate
effort to land the Southern Intercol
legiate Association championship.
CdHty Hurls One Game.
Corley will do the hurling in the
first game, while Morris will try to
redeem himself in the battle Satur
day.
Cunningham stated last night that
there was no foundation for the re
port that Corley would work both
days. The coach considers Morris his
premier hurler and he will be re
lied on to win Saturday’s game. Both
have recovered from the fright oc
casioned by their first 'big Tech
games” and have steadied down.
Upon them Georgia is still staking her
all.
Manager Carter received a chal
lenge from tiie University of Texas
for a .championship series for the
Southeast and Southwest yesterday,
to be played early in June in Texas,
but it will hardly he considered by
Georgia, as the final examinations
are in full blast at that time.

BIG LEAGUt GOSSIP
N
|- I'lW YORK. May l.V The blgKewt sun>i'i|c of the bUMeball season so far is the Krook
lyn elul), which is playing wonderful boll rlsht now. The team Is not wlnuiiu; through
luck, but Iwcause it is hitting hard, fielding smoothly and getting good pitching. I
ran Into Joe Tinker, the manager of the Cincinnati Kcds, tiie other night after his dob
liud met Brooklyn in a couple of games. It is always good to get tlie angle of a smart
player like Tinker.
“What do you think of Brooklyn.” I asked Tinker.
“They're diving and taking all kinds of chances,” he replied. “I would rather meet the Ciants rigid now
than the Brooklyn club. Tiie players have got thHt winning bug, anil it gives them self-confidence. You can’t
stop them. I had a man stealing second Imse by ten feet in the game to-day. and be took a (live at the bag and
nearly cut my leg off in an effort to make it. That’s what is winning ball games for them. It is the first time
I ever saw such spirit in a Brooklyn
club.”
“Oo you think they'll hold up
through the season'/”
"I can’t see the team as a pennant
winner. If the club should get up in
tiie race for the jtennnnt, the strain
of the tight .would crack a lot of
those players. But they are certain
ly playing great baseball now."

T INKER’S dlugnoHiM looks to me
like it good one. It is not my
opinion that the Brooklyn team has a
chance for the championship, but
there is no getting around the fact
that the boys are playing high-class
baseball now. I haven’t seen them in
action since they really ran into this
winning streak, because the Giants
made out pretty well In the last series
we played across the bridge, but
h.'vers and the rest of the managers
who have bumped into Dahlen’s
crowd recently declare they are tak
ing all kinds of chances and getting
away with them. Two or three of
the pitchers have developed in good
shape, ton. Rucker, of course, is a
wonder among left-handers, although
for a long time he lias always pitch
ed in hard luck and received poor
support. Uagon, Curtis and Stack
have shown surprisingly good form
this season.

7 HAT do you think of the
Giants?” I asked Tinker,
continuing our interview.
•'Same trouble as the Cults had in
T.IOil, and that the Athletics develop
ed last year." he answered. “There
is too much confidence. The players
go out every day with this thought
in their minds:
••’Oh. pshaw, we’ve got the bull
club. Wait until we once get start
l'd ! We are the goods.’
"And then there will come a time
when they will have to get started
or lose out, and the club won’t be
aide to get. away with if. It Is the
hardest thing in the world for a
manager to contend with this feeling
of snug satisfaction. MeGraw is do
ing all that he can to correct it. and
lu> should accomplish his purpose if
anyone can. because he is a game
guy. The Giants are playing laid
hail now. There is uo doubt about
that. The pitchers are not going
well, and no play is certain.
"Some of the men are taking
throws with one hand when they
could grab the hall with two without
ant trouble and make It sure. I
think MeGraw will drive the team
together eventually, and if he does,
it looks like the Is'st club in the
league to me. It has not the rttgged-
ness it displayed last year, however."
* * *
i i XI OW about your club, Joe?” I
1 1 inquired.
“Chance and I have been up
against much the same kind of a
proposition this year. I saw Frank
just liefore the Yankees left New
York for their Western trip and had
a long talk with him.
Jin'.' he said, the /Hub's not in
very good shaiie. but the worst fault
is that nobody ever made them play
base ball liefore. No manager ever
rode them since Griffith left. They
have las'll doing as they pleased, and
i am trying to make them play my
sort of baseball, and tfiey don’t know
what to make of it. There ts one
pitcher on the club who wants hts
four days’ rest, and he hollered the
other day because 1 stuck him in to
finish a game.’
“1 have a pitcher like that, my
self,” continued Tinker. “He was
one of those onee-in-every-four-duys
hoys. After he pitched he didn’t
even want to put on a uniform the
next afternoon.
” ‘Why, I never had to do tt be
fore.’ he protested the first time I
ordered him to report the next day
after pitching.
“ ‘Well, you're going to do it if
you stay with this ball club,' 1 told
him. T might want you to get out
there nnd finish a game of ball for
me to-morrow.’
“A lot of the Cincinnati players
won’t think. And my pitchers have
gone had on me. Two of the veter
ans I expected to do the best box
work have fallen down badly. One
lias a sore arm and the other is out
of condition all around. As soon ns
these pitchers work around into some
kind of slm|>e there should not be
any question about the club climbing.
My hardest Jolt now is throwing the
fear of discipline into the hearts of
the players. I have instructed every
man to be in the dining room not
later than half past nine each morn
ing when the team is on the road.
* * *
<( Cl 17 HAT do you want me down
Y v by half past nine for?’
whined one player the other day. ‘We
never had to get up that early before.’
“ ‘You’ll get up that early if you
are going to work for me,' was my
answer.
“I believe in bnll players getting up
early. You cannot expect a man to lie
In lied until noon nnd then get out
on the field full of ‘pep’ nnd ready to
play good baseball at 2 or 3 o’clock.
If they sleep late, they are bound to
sit up lute, which is a bad thing, since
late hours lead to the only places
which are open, mostly saloons. I
am not trying to spring any alibis for
the Cincinnati team. Matty, because I
have pulled some ‘hones’ myself since
taking charge, but I am trying to
teu< h my players baseball.
"If a pitcher looks kind of bad. i’ll
tell a player to go up and take a
strike. He takes it and then looks
over to the bench at me.
“ ‘Go on and hit,’ I nod to him.
“Maybe he swings and misses one.
It's two and nothing on him. He gets
the count two and two, and then fans
out.
“ ‘What’s the matter?’ I say to him
when he comes back to the tench,
“‘If you’d let me hit that first one,
I’d have knocked it nut the lot.’ he
answers. ‘It was right where I like
them. No manager ever made me
take one before.'
“It’s tough work polishing off a
team which has had this sort of
training, and it can’t te done in a
month or two. Some of the players
don’t understand why I want them to
take one. and then after they do they
know they have an alibi for.not hit
ting it when they come hack to the
bench, and maybe they ain’t up there
fighting all the time. Outside of my
pitching staff, my club looks good, and
we are bound to rise,"

Tricks May Count Against Georgia
ICT'CNNY. <
F run in
hanee and you should
going,” said I to Tinker.
“I saw Mr. Farrell the other day,”
answered .Toe. “and we were talking
about Chance.
“ ‘You’ve got the smartest baseball
mauager in the world,’ I told the own
er of the New York Americans. ‘Give
him time, and he’ll give you a ball

"Wait until Chance gets in the
game himself and starts riding those
pitchers out there from first base,”
predicted Joe, in conclusion. “Just
wait.”
(Copyright, 1913,"by the McClure News-
paper Syndicate.)
G EORGIA is putting in a strenu
ous week batting and running
bases, according to reports
from Athens. Tiie Tech team, on the
other hand, is leading a quiet though
busy life out at Grant Field.
Coach Heisrnan is exercising great
care to keep his men from going stale.
This is especially true of the pitchers,
who are just throwing enough to keep
in trim.
The Jackets were a little weak on
base running and fielding last week,
and these departments are getting
their quota of attention from Coach
Heisman. Making the little pellet
stick in the pesky glove was another
jinx that seemed to bother the Jack
ets in their contests with the uni
versity boys, and several times after
men were out the ball was dropped.
The Tech players are getting lots of
practice at “squeezing it” this week
and should show an improvement.
Tech Hurlers Loafing.
Titts and Eubanks, the Tech
hurlers, are only keeping their arms
in trim and are saving their best stuff
for the coming games. Pitts will play
right field in one game, probably the
first, and Malone in the other. Pitts
is a good fielder and so far has out-
hit any man on the team. In practice,
Malone is one of the best hitters on
the team, but has failed to get a sin
gle hit the whole season. One rea
son is because he never played a
whole game until the last Georgia
game, byt was several times put in
for a pinch hitter.
Team Works on Tricks.
Coach Heisman will probably show
some new tricks in base running and
throws in the games Friday and Sat
urday. The team is practicing some
clever tricks.
Extra seats are being put up now
at Grant Field and there will be a*
seating capacity for about 3,000
people.
A new umpire has been chosen—
Harris Cope. He will umpire both
games.
Eubanks Works Friday.
It is settled that Eubanks will twirl
the first game and Pitts will work on
Saturday. Attridge will be behind the
AMERICUS BASEBALL TEAM
UNDERGOES BIG SHAKE-UP
bat in both contests for the Jackets
Amazon on first base is playing
good form and during last week’s se
ries displayed some up-to-the-minute
stuff. He is fast developing into m
ready successor to the one and onl-
“Goat” Holliday. He has the “bn . ’
but ground balls are not hard fo^ hi 1
to nab. He spears them right and ,: •
and has as* long a reach as was ev ■
seen on Grant Field. For a flrst-ye i •
man he is decidedly cool and collected
and doesn’t blow up. He is swatting
the pill some, too. Last week he hit
for what looked like extra bases a 1 -
most every time up, but each time
McWhorter laid way back in tne
shadows and gathered them all in.
It is thought that comparatively few
extra base hits* will be made on the
Jackets’ diamond, owing to the level
ness of the field and the closeness of
the banks which form this amphi
theater. The outfield is soft and not
packed down and a ball does not roll
as it should. However, if a ball does
chance to be batted over the out
fielders’ head?', it is good for two sacks
anyway, and for a fast man, more.
“Scrappy” Moore managed to land
on the spheroid for one homer on
Grant Field, and several others for
triplets; so extra base hits are not
impossible.
