T1IK ATLANTA CiEORGTAN AND NEWS, TUESDAY. MAY 20. 1010.
TEAM BUILDER
By Otto ('. Kioto.
W HILE viewing with regret the
poor showing that such popu
lar men as Chance and Tinker
are making this year we often won
der whether there is a distinction be
tween a great manager and a builder
of a successful baseball team. There
must be something to this* contention
or else why does it constantly flash
[i across our think pan?
There is ho one will deny but that
Frank Chance is a great manager;
I that he can get more out of the same
I men under his charge than any other
one individual out of a hundred that
try. Yet he’s an absolute failure to
| date with New York. Why? Because
he did not build the team he com-
* mands. Scouts were sent abroad to
| bring home the recruits, and from
i present observation the scouts faiied
in their missions. Added to this is
the poor luck that has greeted the
team for the past four or five years.
To play a whole series against all
the clubs in the Eastern division of
the American League and not win a
.‘■•ingle game—well, we are at a loss
to explain it. Yet that’s the record,
and that’s the verdict that will go down
against the Peerless Leader in future
|| discussions.
* * *
TV/TIND, no one expected Chance to
make good in a single season, nor
in two or three seasons for that mat
ter. But we surely looked for bet
ter results than have been brought
to date. A lot of wooden Indians, fre
quently Avon as advertisements in
front of cigar stores, could have ac
complished no less.
It’s now up to Chance to demon
strate to us that he can “build” as
well as manage. He has proven to
us beyond a doubt that the manage
rial abilities are his—won in actual
contest time and time again in the
severest kind o/ battle. With mana
ger. he must .vhow that he is really
all his friends have claimed for him.
He must weed out the dead and re
place them with live and winning ma
terial. When he has done this well
shout bravo!
* * •
PHA.NTE did not build up the great
machine that won four National
League and two world’s champion
ships. He was part of the machine
Jpefore it was handed over to him,
’but the late Frank Selee gathered
Tinker. Kllng. Schulte. Evers. Her
man and the rest of the bunch that
stood so gallantly by the P. L. in all
those now historic struggles. Selee
had to step down and out owing to
poor health, and Chance stepped in
and developed the heirlooms that his
manager left to him.
True. Chance made some advan
tageous trades that still further
strengthened his machine. But. the
> men traded were all gathered by Se
lee and proved such alluring bait to
the other clubs that the swap which
brought Brown. Shekard and others
into the Cub fold was comparatively
easy. So without taking any credit
away from Chance, all he had to do
In this instance was to keep the well-
organized machine moving. This he
did with wonderful results. He suc
ceeded where another man might have
failed.
* * *
TAKE Clark Griffith, of the Was*h-
* ington team. He is one of the
best managers in the business. Time
and time again he has proved this.
But we ask, is he a builder? To a
certain extent we believe him to be.
fie surely showed such ability when
he organized the Highlanders for
their first appearance in the Ameri
can League. Things, however, w’ere
father easy at that time because
the younger league was grabbing all
the stars from the National. When
he got Chesbro he had pretty nearly
a team.
He failed to make much of a show
with Cincinnati. (But so do all the
others.) In Washington last year as
well as this he is* doing wonders. But
in figuring matters remember that
it was Cantillon who got Johnson
to come there, and the other half of
the team was helped along by Jim
my McAleer. (’lark, however, is get
ting every ounce out of them.

MANDOT IO-TO-8 CHOICE
OVER ANDERSON TO-NIGHT
L( 'S ANGELES, May 20.—The expe
rience and ring generalship of Joe Man-
dot, the New Orleans lightweight, has
caused a flood of money to be offered by
bis admirers at the eleventh hour, and
just twelve hours before he is due to
enter the Vernon ring to box i.ud An
dersen. of Medford. Oreg., the Southern

With their training concluded in the
best of shape, both boys are in per
fect condition and confident. Mandot
frieling sure he will redeem himself, and
Anderson certain that he will add an

x -r tSDNESDAY is Ad Men’s Day
\l\/ at Ponce DeLeop ball park.
And for the first time this
season the people of Atlanta will be
given an opportunity to show that
they appreciate what the Ad Men
have done for them and what they
are planning to do.
“What have they done?” you ask
Well, for one thing, they have,
within the year, raised more than
$100,000 for various good causes in
Atlanta. The Y. M. C. A., the Cham
ber of Commerce and goodness knows
how many charitable organizations
have been helped by money they
have raised.
This spring when it appeared that
Atlanta was to lose the honor of
turning out the largest opening day
crowd, the Ad Men’s Club whirled in
and whooped things up with a result
tfiat all Southern League records for
all time were fractured.
At every convention of Ad Men’s
Clubs which they have attended they
have whooped up Atlanta in some
really spectacular way that has put
the Gate City before the delegates
in a most favorable light.
“Wht will they do with the money
they raise?” you inquire.
Just this—they will use it to boost
Atlanta at the Baltimore convention.
They don’t want their ear fare paid
They are ail blowing themselves to
that. They don’t waril it for enter
tainment or for themselves in any
way.
They want it for Atlanta.
The scheme is this. The big feature
of the convention will be a night
parade. There will be 10ft motor
truck floats, prepared by national
advertisers. There will he bands ga
lore. And every Ad Men’s Club rep
resented there will march in uniform
in the parade. The local men are
going to buy their uniforms—and it
will cost them about $35 apiece for
this. They need money, however, to
buy big. white parasols, on which the
word, "Atlanta” will be printed in
huge, red letters. They need money
also for big elec tric flash lamps, which
will be provided with huge glass
globes, on which, in red, will be the
words "Atlanta Always Ahead.” They
need money for a band. In other words
they need it to boost Atlanta at Bal
timore.
The cause is a worthy one.
The Ad Men do just as much to
boost Atlanta as any organization
here. They take over all the odd jobs
that the Chamber of Commerce is too
dignified to handle, and any good
osting organization needs support.
CHARLIE WHITE STOPS
THOMAS IN TWO ROUNDS
NEW ORLEANS. May 20.—Charlie
White stopped Joe Thomas in the
second round of their 10-round bout
last night. The -local boy was an
easy victim for the Chicago star.
Thomas was knocked down for the
count of nine in the' first round, after
going down two other times, the bell
saving him the 'last time.
At the opening of the second,
Thomas appeared to have regained
his strength, but a few well directed
rights and lefts put him groggy
again, and after about one minute of
the second round the referee. Dick
Burke, raised White’s hand and mo
tioned Thomas to his corner.

White City Park Nov; Open
By Rube Marquard
(Holder of the World’s Record of
Nineteen Consecutive Victories.)
S O many startling surprises have
developed in the first month of
the major league campaigns it is
hard to figure out where it will all
end.
By the looks of things anything is
liable to happen. The “dope” has
been upset in so many surprising
manners that it seems after all as if
there is some “jinx” attached to the
magic “13” of this year of grace.
However, there are enough beacons
shining through the gloom of uncer
tainty to re-establish faith in ability
as opposed to superstition.
We do not have to travel very far
just now to find the one real beacon
of Giant hope. His name is Christy
Mathewson. His work alone is
enough to break ail the charms of
“jinxes” and “hoodoos,” for he arises
in the thirteenth year of his career
as a Giant and a major league per
former to a height of perfection that
in any other pitcher would be re
garded as miraculous. Mathewson
has been the great bulwarK of the
Giant pitching staff so long that the
public has come to regard his won
derful brilliancy as a matter of com
mon habit.
To none other than the great mas
ter of pitching science may New York
contratulate itself upon being as well
to the front in the 1913 National
League race. So far he has been
the only reliable pitching asset of the
veteran talent. Matty is confident
that this will be his greatest year, and
I share the belief with him.
Here is a pitcher who very wisely
has conserved every ounce of vital
ity. By the use of his head he has
been able to shine year after year
with the very least possible strain
to his arm. And I believe that Chris
ty Mathewson will live to as ripe an
age of efficiency as did the vener
able Cy Young. To-day Mathewson
is better than he has ever been be
fore.
Illness Sets “Rube” Back.
Mathewson has had to shoulder the
great bulk of the pitching responsi
bility so far this season, but I think
there will be plenty of help for him
from now on. My chief regret for
Mathewson McGrow and all my fel
low players has been that I am not
capable of doing my share toward
making it three pennants in a row.
I offer no excuses, for T know in my
heart that very soon I will be back
into my proper stride. I was just
hitting my pace when an attack of
tonsilitis set me back.
By the time I am on my feet once
more—and that will not be very long,
1 can tell you—the Giants should be
as well provided with pitching ma
terial as any club could desire. T
know from the condition in which
the men returned from Texas that
a week or two of summer weather
would put all our pitchers in first-
class shape.
Our club is not the only one that
has suffered in this respect. Pitch
ing, as a general rule. has been
very unsatisfactory so far in both
leagues. With very few exceptions—
principally Mathewson. Johnson and
Plank—pitchers usually the most re
liable have been most unsteady. By
every law of precedent this condi
tion should not obtain when the vet
eran pitchers finally round into
shape.
Having ^een all out* rivals but St.
Louis, I am more convinced than ever
that the Giants should win the pen
nant. it will not be the runaway that
most of our supporters presumed be
fore the .start. It will mean a good,
steady fight through the whole course,
a condition that s lould make the cur
rent season a most memorable one.
League Strength in East.
The strength of the National
League, as evidenced in the first
month’s play, centered in the East,
just as it does in the American. Phil
adelphia and Brooklyn, rather than
Pittsburg and Chicago. seem bent
upon most forcibly debating the
championship with tlie Giants.
With Hans Wagner back in the
game the Pirates arc •almost bound
to greatly improve their standing
Fred Clarke's pitchers have been woe
fully off color all along, and this
condition has resulted in a very se
vere handicap for his learn. Pitts
burg will undoubtedly get back
among the leaders, but has so much
ground to make up that It can not now
he seriously regarded as a challenger
of the Giants.
Chicago has a very good Iboking
club outside its pitchers, but is so
weak in box material that it can not
hope, under present conditions, to
cope with any one of the three
strongest Eastern clubs.
Cincinnati is in the same boat as
Chicago. The Indian. Johnston, has
been Tinker’s only reliable pitcher so
far. Yet there is fair .strength in the
Reds’ staff if the men ever get to
working properly. Chicago can not
muster as much twirling strength as
Cincinnati, though Evers' team in all
other respects is superior.
A very pleasing circumstance to the
Giants is the manner in which George
Stallings has resurrected the Boston
Braves. . Out of practically nothing
he has shaped a collection capable of
giving the best a very stiff argument.
This will prove of great help to the
Giants, no doubt, as Boston will be
able to stop New York’s rivals once
In a while. Heretofore Boston al
ways managed somehow to make
things interesting enough for New
York, but never did a groat deal
against Pittsburg ana Chicago.
Giants in Lead Soon.
1 think that inside of a very shol’t
time the Giants will step out into the
lead, and once there our club will
never be dislodged. It Is a fact that
we have not played the game of which
we are capable. Tho fault did not lie
wholly in poor pitching, either. We
have lost many games because we (lid
not get the most out of our hitting
ability and speed.
I suppose we looked too lightly
upon the other teams. But if so w<
have learned a good lesson, for every
Giant player will try his very best
from now until the season Is over
Over-confidence is blamed for the
loss of a pennant to the Athletics
last year. It will not be our sad lot
this season. McGraxy i« a man wh(
will not stand for trifling.

Abstinence Will Bring Success

Shun Tobacco, Says Frank Chance
By Frank U Chanop
This is my sixteenth year in major
league baseball. For fifteen of those
years I was connected with the Chi
cago club. In that time I have served
at practically everything, from all
round utility man to manager.
And. Incidentally. I believe that I
have about sized up the situation in
regard to ball players. In the first
place, it is essential that tobacco and
drink be left alone. If drink is ta
booed it naturally follows that late
hours also will be tabooed. It is nec
essary for a youngster aspiring to
succeed in baseball to see to it that
his constitution is made strong and
that he does nothing to interfere with
his physical development.
I have come to the conclusion that
a man is not fully developed until ne
has reached 3ft years of age. Possi-
| blv after that the moderate use cf
tobacco will not do him any great in
jury.
So much for my advice to young
sters who aspire to make baseball i
profession.
“My advent into baseball was prob-
| ably- as Inauspicious as an event of
such a nature could possibly be. There
I w ere no brass bands to meel me at
the station, and, as I remember, the
newspapers of Chicago devoted a
short paragraph—maybe it was only a
sentence—to the fact that the Chicago
team had signed a young catcher.
I But 1 am getting a bit ahead of the
story. In 1894-96 I played ball on the
Washington College (California)
team. With me was a young fellow,
also a student at the college, named
“Rod” Wagner. During the summer
months he was manager or had some
thing to do with a town team at
Sullivan. Ill. He asked me how I would
like to play ball there. He told me
I could get $4ft a month and my
board and lodging.
At that time 1 was only 1ft. and $lft
a week sounded- pretty good to me,
J so I accepted. The club didn't make
' any money and I was “done" out of
my pay.
FODDER FOR FANS
C. Webb Murphy, disgusted with the
weakness of his pitching staff, sent
eight scouts to different parts of the
country yesterday with orders to gather
in some pitchers.
* •*
The Reds defeated the Braves yester
day in a ten-inning battle that was
characterized by considerable slugging
and many errors.
• * *
The wonderful showing made this sea
son by the Phillies has necessitated the
building of six additional ticket booths
to facilitate the handling of the crowds.
* * *
And perhaps Horace Kogel. who used
to own the Phillies, isn't experiencing
a seasick feeling when he notes that
the daily attendance figures at the Phil
lies' grounds is double and treble what
they were last year.
* * *
The Dodgers again beat the Cardinals,
but failed to move into first place be
cause the Phillies had an easy time de
feating the Cubs.
• • •
“Smoky Joe’’ Wood seems to be back j
in form again. He held the White Sox
to one run yesterday, while his own
club piled up ten.
Ty Cobb's three hits out of three times
up were big factors in the defeat of the
.\thietics by the Tigers.
* * *
Eddie Collins, who is near the top of
the American League batting column,
harvested four hits nut of four times up
yesterday.
“.lake" Daubert, the Dodgers' first
packer, continues to slug the ball. He
made a single and a triple yesterday.
* • *
Falkenberg. the elongated ‘come
back'' ’.wirier for the Naps, added an
other victory to his string yesterday,
making eight in a row
» * * 4
With the bases full in the eighth in
ning, Manager (’banco up for the second
lime in that inning, batted out of turn.
; singled and scored the two runs that
| won the game for the Yankees from
the Browns. When the Browns pro
tested the trick it was too late to be
availing.
* * *
j The most thrilling game staged on
the Polo grounds for a long time was
that of yesterday, which the Giants won
in the fourteenth 3 to 2. Time and
again the pitchers for both the Giants
and the Pirates were in “holes." but
wonderful fielding pulled them cut. The
, Pirates used fourteen and the Giants
| eighteen players.
* * *
• ‘ Helnie” Zimmerman and Manager
Evers, of the Cubs, had a wordy battle
on the field yesterday which may result
in Evers suspending the third sacker,
who, it is said, objects to playing under
Evers.
! Evers, by the way. may soon hear
! other highly uncomplimentary things
! about his future. President Murphy is
! on his way to Boston for a confab with
■ his manager, and it is not likely that
C. Webb will wax enthusiastic over the
miserable showing the Cubs have made
i so far in the East.
GEORGIA TACKLE DIES
FROM TYPHOID FEVER
ATHENS, (JA., May 20.—William
Luther Arnett, of Odessa, a member
of the junior law class of the Univer
sity of Georgia, died after an illness
of four days here this morning from
typhoid fever. 11 is body was carried
to his home this afternoon, the law
< lass following the casket in a body.
He was 26 years old, and in the final
games of football last fall he was a
star tackle. He was one of the best
men physically, mentally and morally
in the University.
I returned to college in 1897 and
took part in a big amateur baseball
tournament held in California for
youths under 18 years of age. Some
of the fellows who entered it of course
cheated, but that has nothing to do
with my case.
“(’ill" McYey, who one time was a
member of the Cincinnati team, saw
me play and recommended me to
“Cap” Anson, who was then manager
of the Chicago club. Anton refused to
give me a trial. That was either in
the spring or early summer of 1897.
In the autumn of the same year Mc-
Vey wrote to “Jim” Hart, who had
succeeded Anson, and Hart sent for
me.
1 was signed ns an extra catcher,
hut after I had been in Chicago for
a while it seemed to me as if 1 had
been signed as a sort of make-vour-
self-uteful around the ball park. Any
little odd jobs that were to be done
and there wasn’t anybody else handy
to do them I was ordered to pitch in.
If the hat hoys didn’t show up. I
had to look after the bats. If there
was no one else to carry the bats
from the “bus” into the ball park, or
from the ball park to the "bus.” I did
it. If Hart or some of the veteran
players on the club forgot anything,
such as gloves and the like, T was
sent after them. Even some of the
“bushers” who were Just breaking in
pretty much the same as I was. but
who happened to be my seniors by a
couple of years, employed me as er
rand boy for them.
But I stood it. I was in the big shov*
and I was determined to make good.
1 realized that the best way to mak •
good was to stick around as long as
they would let- me and watch the
eavortings of those who knew. I did.
and eventually my tlm»‘ came. And 1
guess 1 must have made good.
The club was in need of a first base
man. and 1 was delegated to cower
the bag.
It was In 1996 that 1 was made
manager of the Cubs, after nine year*
of service. Of course, the rest is
what might be called modern history
and there Is no use rehashing that.
RINGSIDE NOTES
By XV. XV. Naughton.
S AN FRANCISCO, May 20.—In
James W. CofTroth’s Eighth Ave
nue arena to-nighi a couple of
huskies wlU have designs on the
world’s championship. They are
heavyweights and their names are
Jess Willard and Gunboat Smith.
Did they belong in any other class
there w r ould be haggling and maybe
claiming of forfeit if one man scaled
a few ounces over a stipulated notch.
As it is, Willard will have fifty pdlinds
the better of the poundage and Smith
will have no redress, for the laws
of the ring, so far as they bear upon
avoirdupois, do not hold “north of
’58.” Smith has been made favorite,
the price this morning being 1ft to
8. This is in pursuance of San Fran
cisco's policy,of pinning its faith to
the man It knows when a local fight
er and a stranger become embroiled.
Just what the odd* would be if
the heavies met in the East is not
known, but it is doubtful if Smith
would be installed first choice. The
Gunner’s best performance there was
his victory over Bombardier Wells,
and Willard outboxed Luther McCar
ty, who beat A1 Palzer, who beat
Bombardier Wells.
Roth Willard and Smith are well
thought of around New York and are
regarded as fit candidates for the
world’s championship. Willard lacks
the experience of Smith, and this is
one reason of the San Francisco fight
followers’ liking for Smith. Gunboat’s
vaunted knockout punch is another,
li may be that Willard also possesses
a knockout punch, but San Francisco
has no knowledge of the fact. He
certainly has not been advertised in
that direction to the same extent as
Smith.
