May in — The pa^fnK of Hard Lurk Char lie C.iie. from the Volunteers, marks the exit of the last of the old guard, \\ho. under the Bernhard re- trinje. brought In 19"* the last piece of hunting that has floated in Sulphur Dell The new manager for the Turtles Drought Chick to Nashville from the Pirates and it was due in a great neasure to his grand twirling during that gruelling campaign with the Pelicans that enabled the Vols to hash under the wire ahead. It would be a strange prank of Fate did the season whioh F*ent 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 wallop* day after day. but .if Schwartz ever should be able to gather a quintet of steady huriers it would be hard to Ugure his crew among the flag contenders. To the naked eye the advantage gained by either Nashville or Mont gomery in the trade of Case for FMg- ey Paige is not visible. Charlie is on his wav. and has travelled a good distance toward the other end. while Paige is about through Kit her will have to travel quite a bit before they meet a first-class tuirler 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 i»als and Big Bill certainly did inject in 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 bean- bafl artist has not proved <>f any great value to the club so far. If Schwartz can land a high-grade mound artist. Karl will be invited to visit hlfr home folks Rut the Vols arc having a tough time landing depend able dingers, having already hired and fired a list of alleged pitchers as long as the delinquent tax roll. The Reds continue to hang on to Chirk Smith, although they have sold this southpaw to the Vols, and, despite the gaping holey in the slab corps, he ha- failed to put In an appear ance. He ought to bolster up the staff considerably since a number <»f the Southern League Clubs this sea son appear to be helpless against portsiders, the most conspicuous of the bunch b< ing the Vols themselves, for any left-hander w'ho waves his glove in the faces of the Hehwartz- mmi has them heat to a frazzle. New Pitcher on the Job. Jack Dandridge. the big righthand er who was signed as a free agent, is in town awaiting the return of the club from the present road trip. He 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, since he has been setting the league afire for the Lookouts, crack ing George Beck's winning streak to say nothing of busting up the Gulls' long string Schwartz had the dope of Rudt all wrong, for oe figured he couldn't last in this cli mate another season, f<>r the little fellow was always on the sick list while with the Vols. Surely a grand pitcher for a hoy billed to the undertakers Williams Going Immense. The sudden return to form of Lefty Williams and his feat of defeating the fast going Gulls twice in three davs. one game running for eleven Innings with onlv one scratch hit off his delivery, is the most encouraging happening of the present road trip. The Springfield. M<* . hoy stood a grpat chanc* 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 by Beck. tot whom the Reds offered 7,BOO 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 Beck will be worth just as much then as he 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 t<> 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 JGP-F,vt«5 ~tin\6 To CAU- in TWostE.

L OS A NOBLER, GAL., 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 best lightweight cards in the country or an exploded “comer” with nothing belter than second grade dates in store for him. Anderson and Mandot are matched to box twenty rounds before the P.i eifle Athletic Flub at Vernon on Tuesday night. The weight is 133 pounds at K o’clock. There is no choice in the betting, which is at even money. Just as Joe Rivers began an un known and fought himself into a fol lowing of thousands, so Anderson Is building for himself, and should he 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 his protege. ‘ Anderson's best punch is his left hook.” said Donald. "He had little or no chance to use this blow against Brown, as ‘Kayo' fights with h1s 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 Is 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 that I am standing here.” Mandot, working at Venice, has trained faithfully. Joe figures that Anderson has been greatly overesti mated and takes it for granted that he will havh 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 arc 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 chap look like a bool). "We figure, though, that by stop ping a young fellow like this boy that Joe will be in line for another cra< k at Rivers. We are easy to do busi ness with. Wednesday mornfng wid tind us ready to sign articles with either Rivers, Ritchie. Welsh, Cross or Murphy."

The going of the first three clubs in the American League has been steadier and more according to the 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 tlie 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. .aafc-.— rp HE percentage table is still all -4 tangled up, and the teams have shown little inclination to straighten themselves out iri the order it was expected they would liefore 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. Mefiraw, fighting the old over-confi dence which was holding the team tlown. tore Ihe club apart and shook up his hatting order until it now looks as if he had found a strong combination. By sticking Shafer in center field he has propped up the club in the hitting department, and | seems to have slipped a plug in Hie right place. Shafer has been hatting as hard as anybody on the team this season, and Is playing wonderful ball. T ‘HE pitchers arc returning; to form. Tesreau showed some of his 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 l>een working lu very hard luck so far, giving few hits and losing many games through had support. Mar quart! 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 have 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, ami it does not strike me that either one can hold up through a gruelling race. They should cause us little worry. Brooklyn has been playing great ball. the dashing, irresistible, winning sort, but it is not a pennant team. * * e P ERSONALLY, I still have faith ill 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 Imd lost seven straight games in the East, four of these going to Boston. Hat 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 had ball, but it is only necessary to read over the list of the names of the men asso ciated with the Pittsburg movement to realize it will play better hall very shortly.
