THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY, MAY 19. 1913. I LAST OF LEAVE VOLS And Now Jeff Is Back to the Silk Hat Again By “Bud” Fisher N ashville, tptnn., May i» — The passing of Hard Luck Char lie from the Volunteers, marks the exit of the last of the old guard, w4io, under the Bernhard re glme. brought in 190* the last piece of bunting that has floated in Sulphur Dell The new manager for the Turtles brought Chick to Nashville from the Pirates and it was due in a great measure to his grand twirling during that gruelling campaign with the Pelicans that enabled the Vols to flash under the wire ahead. It would be a strange prank of Fate did the season which pent Case to Montgomery allow history to re peat itself and give the gonfalon to the Schwartzmen. It must be admitted that the Vols are displaying a bunch of nerve in harping- on pennants with their box- men doddering along and being blis tered with wallops day after day. but if Schwartz ever should be able to gather a quintet of steady hurlers it would be hard to figure hit crew among the flag contenders. To the naked eye the advantage gained by either Nashville or Mont gomery in the trade of Case for Pig gy Paige is not visible. Charlie is on his way, and has travelled a good distance toward the other end. while Paige is about through Either will have to travel quite a bit before they meet a first-class twirler coming out. Wanted to Join Turtles. Case would have preferred to land with the Turtles and it would no doubt have been better for him. for he and Bernhard are great pals and Big Bill certainly did in.lect 1n some mysterious manner into Doc Sea- bough new life when he looked to be down for the count. Fleharty is the only veteran re maining for slab duty and the b*an- ball artist has not proved of any great j value to the club no far. If Schwartz can land d high-grade mound artist, Earl will be invited to visit i hie home folks But the Vols are having a tough time landing depend- \ able flingers, having already hired and fired a list of alleged pitchers an long as the delinquent tax roll. The Reds continue to hang on to j Chick Smith, although they have sold this southpaw to the Vols. and, despite the gaping holes In the slab corps, he has failed to put in an appear ance. He ought to bolster up the Vaff considerably since a number of the Southern League Clubs this sea son appear to he helpless against portsiders, the most conspicuous of the bunch being the Vols themselves, for any left-hander wfho waves his glove in the faces of the Schwartz men has them beat to a frazzle. New Pitcher on the Job. Jack Dandridge, the big righthand- ; ei who was signed as a free agent, is In town awaiting the return of the club from the present road trip. He j was with Vernon last season, won a majority of his games and is in good shape. Bill Schwartz appears to have foz- zled when he turned down Rudy ; Summers, on account of the boy’s health, sinct h< has baan aatting th< league afire for the Lookouts, crack ing George Beck’s winning streak to say nothing of bustftig up the Gulls' long string Schwartz had the dope of Rudy all wrong, for he figured he couldn’t last in this cli- marfe another season, for the little fellow waps always on the sick list while with the Vols. Surely a grand pitcher for a boy billed to the undertakers Willisms Going Immense. The sudden return to form of Lefty William* and his f«at of, defeating the fast going Gulls twice in three days, one game running for eleven innings with only one scratch hit off his delivery, is the most encouraging happening of the present road trip. The Springfield. Mo., boy stood a great chance of finding a pink paper in his mail Just when he began to deliver the goods. He crowded right up Into the select circle that so far ha* been monopolized b> Beck, for whom the Red*- ottered 7,500 reg ular dollars and Reuben Benton. Of course the Vols’ treasury Is too small to accommodate such a swarm of dollars and there is no place on the team for Benton. Of course not. Time enough when the season is over to turn this trick and Reek will be worth Just as much then as be would bring now if he keeps up bis brilliant work. and there is little chance of his going the draft route for too many of the majors will be after him for that to happen. The quickest way for Hirsig to wreck baseball In Nashville would be to dispose of .Beck, and Hirsig is too much interested in collecting the eggs to investigate the anatomy of the goose. It's a great temptation, ad mitted. but the goose eats entirely too little to warrant any undue cu riosity CT»$ TirAE Tt> CALL IN TH0S€ STttfr THt 15™ O* *S*Y LAST CALL.

CAL., May 19.— The fight that he will make against Joe Mandot next Tues day night will either “make or break” Young Bud Anderson. The Medford hoy will either leave the ring as one of the host lightweight cards in the country or an exploded "comer” with nothing better than second grade dates in store for him. Anderson and Mandot are matched to box twenty rounds before the Pa cific Athletic dub at Vernon on Tuesday night. The weight Is 133 pounds at K o’clock. There 1s no choice In the betting, which is at even money. Just at* Joe Rivers began an un known and fought hlmpelf Into a fol lowing of thousands, so Anderson is building for himself, anil should be win decisively over Mandot. a match between Bud and the Mexican would necessitate the enlarging of the arena building. Bud's Best Punch Left Hook. Manager Dick Donald made an in teresting talk to-day concerning the chances of hip protege. "Anderson's best punch is his left hook." said Donald. "He bad little or no chance to use this blow against Brown, as 'Kayo' fights with Ms right hand extended. We realize that Man- dot is a fast and clever boxer. Were we foolish enough to try to outbox him, we probably would be outpointed in every round. What we intend to do ip to keep on top of Mandot and make him fight every inch of the way. I am as sure that Bud will stop Joe inside the limit as I am thRt 1 am standing here.” Mandot. wot king at Venice, has trained faithfully. Joe figures that Anderson has been greatly overesti mated and takes it for granted that he will have an easy time of It with the Oregon youth. Mandot’s Manager Confident. "We know exactly where we stand in this affair." said Manager Tommy Walsh. Monday. "We have been brought out here to act as a trial horse. We are willing to be called a trial horse so long as it gets us the money. Mandot is a more scientific man, is a better ring general, and has had much more experience than An derson. He will make this young eh,to look like a boob. "We figure, though, that by stop ping a young fellow like thlp boy that .loe will he in line for another crack at Rivers. We are easy to do busi ness with. Wednesday morning will find us ready to sign articles with either Rivers, Ritchie. Welsh, Cross or Murphy." The towing of a distant row.

CHRISTY MATHEWSONS BIG LLAGUl GOSSIP N EW YORK, May 1S>.—Tile race in the National League so far this season has been the most unsettled one I have seen since 1 came into the big league. The going of the first three clubs in the American League has been steadier and more according to tlie dope. The National league has been crowded with upsets and surprises. Of the two teams that were leading the National League through the first weeks of the race, one is holding up, but none too strongly, and the other has wilted. The Cubs and Phila delphia made the early going, and the Phillies spent last week struggling to keep ahead of the plunging Brooklyn boys. The Chicago club has cracked badly since invading the East, and I cannot see it as a pennant contender. It looks like a bad road club, and the traveling ability of the old Chicago machines was what won the pennants for them. Mr McGraw called Mr. Klem a cat- j fish, (hereby offering a deadly insult to an innocent fish. The St. Louis baseball magnate who was amputated from $5,000 Is on the road to recovery, but he never will look the same. THERE IS HOPE. There, little Cub, don't cry! You ore hitting the hump*. I know. And ii winning streak that would lout a week Is a thing of the long ago. You MAY he a winner when horses tin. So theie. little Cub, don't cry! Under the workmen’s compensation •ft. T> Cobb is entitled to $19 wefelc while hors du combat Under the pres ent circumstances the rest of the team Is entitled to that amount while play ing The consensus of opinion Is that the United States League died of infantile paralysis cp HE percentage table is still all 1 tangled up. and the teams have shown Utile inclination to straighten themselves out in the order it was expected they would before the season opened. The Giants were the only rated contenders who approached 'their natural form last week. The New York club bucked up consider ably and settled to something like its normal stride, although it is still very unsteady In the field. McGraw. fighting Die old over-confi dence which was holding the team down, tore the club apart and shook up his batting order until it now looks ns if lie had found a strong combination. By sticking Shafer in center field lie has propped up the club in the hitting department, and seems to have slipped a plug in the right place. Shafer lias been batting as hard as anybody on the team this season, and is playing wonderful ball. If we mistake not. the United States League once offered Ty Cobb $15,000 a year. Still. It was a great little offer, T HE pitchers are returning to form. Tesreau showed some of hts last season’s stuff in a game against the Cubs last week, when he delivered the best battle he has pitch ed so far this season. Demaree is a great addition to the staff, but has been working in very hard luck so far, giving few hits and losing many games through bad support. Mar- quard Is not himself yet, but he has hardly recovered entirely from weak ness following the attack of tonsilitis. Naturally, I cannot see any club but the Giants for the pennant. I know we hare the stuff there, and the team is better this year than last. The aggregations we have to heat to get into first place now are the Brook lyn and Philadelphia clubs, and it does not strike me that either one can hold up through a gruelling race. They should eause us little worry. Brooklyn has been playing great ball, the dashing, irresistible, winning sort, but it is not a pennant team. PERSONALLY, I still have faith in the Pittsburg club. I appreciate that I am in the small minority, even many of the Pittsburg fans having deserted the ship after the team had lost seven straight games in the East, four of those going to Boston. Hav ing played against the Pirates. I know them for battlers. They are like the Giants. They have not got going, but their poor start has brought no tears of sorrow to our eyes, because it is generally realized among us how they are liable to fin ish. The team is playing bad ball, but it is only necessary to read over tlie list of the names of the men asso ciated with the Pittsburg movement to realize it will play better ball very shortly. Sports and Such MATTY THE MARVEL. JlfiHEN Earth's last ball game is r V finis finished and the leagues are busted and done, When the fattest magnate has wilted and no longer gum shoes for spon, We shall rest—go back to the bushes and lie up a season or so Till the master of all the magnates announces the real big show. And those that were hugs shall be happy—they shall sit in a ten-rent seat (The which shall be back of the catcher) and have free pea nuts to eat. They shall have new umps to cuss at—nice targets, broadlike and tall; They shall peg bottles at them for hours and never be tired at all. TEN-ROUNDERS T (Copyright, 1913, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.) And none of our hunch shall make bobbles and all of our bunch shall make hits; They shall fall on the enemy’s twirlers and pummel them all into bits: And there with his “smoke” and his “fader"—this is the sure thing of all— We shall see the same trusty old Matty still pitching Ms old shut-ball! FAKE. Though the motorbikes were scooting And the frenzied crowd was rooting, Not a single man was seen to break his back. ‘The’/ are all a hunch of fakers!"
