Whiting, u W/ 1 ' i J i‘ s° " hen oyiT \a/ pitcher* get right.” So said ' Bill Smith before Monday- game. “Nobody need think we re Beared. 1 never saw team playing better ball and- lowing in my life than the Cracker* did on their trip And they never lost their nerve if the pitchers come through we’ll win in a walk. And you needn’t worry. They’re coming.” One of the pitchers came through Monday and it was plain sailing for the Crackers. • * • THE Crackers have the best infield * and outfield < ombination that the Southern League ever saw. That’s positively official. There's nothing else In the world to It. Bailey. Welchonce and Long form the best outfield ever ween In the Southern League. Agler. Alperman, Bisland and Smith constitute an infield the like of which was never seen before in Dixie. The catching staff will do as it sound* to-day. and if it doesn't con tinue standing right Bill Smith will kick it overboard and load up with some men who can deliver. That's official too and right from Bill Smith. The pitchers are Smith'w only trouble. “At that they look pretty good,” says Billy. “This Gilbert Price Is a positive marvel. I never in all my day* saw a hurier with more stuff. Efe seems t<> weaken sometimes at the end of a game. I don’t know whether he gets overconfident or weakens physically. If he get* to lasting all the way they couldn’t beat him in fifty years. • “Bill Chappelle showed us a good game his last out and will win for us I think. Brady’s work is perfect ly satisfactory. If this Dent goes all right I'll take my chances.” • • * AS for Paul Musser, he showed that ** he was there with everything in the catalogue yesterday He allow ed five hits, one a scratch home run. If Tommy Long Hadn't misjudged this hall badly only one run would have been made off Musser. His control was vastly better than usual and he looked a great pitcher. As for the <’rackers*—they played the ball they have been playing al most all the season. They got to Pitcher Kissinger of the Turtle team only twice but it was enough. In the third Graham slipped one by Kissinger. Musser bunted safe— a peach of a performance for a pitch er—and Bailey cleaned up with a single. In the fourth Bisland put across a clean home run that won the game. After that time the locals made hut one hit. But they did not need even that one. • * % 'THE new man. Bisland. looked like * a legacy from your rich uncle. Be sides hitting the homer that won the game he fielded neatly and he looks so much like a big league ball player you couldn't detect him from the real thing in the broad daylight. Wally Smith kept right on looking like the wonder of the league. And Whitey Alperman surely had a big day. In the eighth he actually flew after Ward’s liner and in the ninth In* nipped what might have been a rally by grabbing down Absteln's aw ful poke. • * * THE game was played in one hour A and forty-six minutes, which is amazingly fa.<*t considering how other contests of the year have lagged. Urn pires Bill Hart and Dan Pfennlnger seemed to have developed some pep per in their old age and kept things hustling That the good work will be continued is the earnest hope of the fans. Draggy baseball game? don't please anybody. DIABETES NO LONGER FEARED f Peculiar Action of a Remarkable Remedy In Controlling Liver Action.

II takes nint* men to win ball in any fast league. It has been the case in the past, and it will be ever thus in the future A pitcher of Walsh or Johnson's caliber may figure con spicuously in the winning of a game, but at that they must have fielding and ruivgetting powers in their teams to make them winners. But let one thing be impressed on the public mind—players may come and go, but the game will go on for ever Had Cobb not returned to the Detroit team, the continued losings of the club would have been laid to his absence, but it was a great vic tory and eye-opener both for the De troit people in all parts of America that he did return, to show the super ficial and unsophisticated how little one man figures In the game, and especially an ou:fielder. To look at Cobb, or Cobbism, from a dispassionate and Impartial stand point, let us see wlmt Cobb's status is in the game. I grant he has the right to ask for an\ salary he thinks his services are worth; he realizes that he is a drawing card at home and abroad. knows the owners of the club look at him from a com mercial standpoint, and he views them in the same light. He knows also that there Is a time limit to his playing days, and he wants to make the most of it. The home press and the unsophisticated press throughout the United States have been burning incense to his greatness and telling him that he is the one hall player in the history of the game, which he never was. But as Detroit made him a drawing card, in their slopology. he had a right to make them pay for It. Which he has. Infielder More Important. Let us sec where he figures as a ball player, compared with the play ers of the past and present. He is playing In the outer works of the game as a fielder, averaging abopt two fly balls to a game, with plenty of time to think what he wifi do af ter catching a fly hall or the ground er that is bounding toward him. No outfielder can he compared with an Infielder or a catcher, as their posi tions are entirely different in the na ture of the work they have to per form. An inflelder's brain i» in per petual action from the time the pitcher delivers the ball, and he has a fraction of a second to think. inly so quick does the machinery of the Infield work. * Cobb is the best run getter in the profession to-day. Run getting is the combination of hitting and base run ning Ba«e running has ever been the spectacular part of a ball player's work, with all other thipgH nearly equal. To say Cobb was the great est ball player in the history of the game would be like telling a man who saw the Mississippi River that the Il linois River vv^s the longest and larg est In the United States, or to teli a person who saw he summit of Pike's Peak that the range of the Allegheny was higher - . I suppose it will be the same In the next generation of ball players. They will b* a* skeptical of the baseball prowess of Cobb. Wagner and Lajole, as the present ones are of the great ness of Mike Kelly, Ewing and Wil liamson. As a fielder and thrower Cobb could not stand comparison with Fogarty. Curt Welsh, Bill Lange, and a few others of the past and he is not to-day the superior as a fielder and thrower of Graney of Cleveland and Moeller of Washington. Thinks Keeler Was Better. TlU*re is a little modest man who left the ball field two years ago, namely, William Keeler, who did not wear sleigh bells around a hotel to let people know he was around, but he was the superior of Cobb, as ver satile a batter. But to say that. Cobb was the equal of the three great ball players of the pa ft. namely. Ewing, WiMiamson, and Mike Kelly, would be ridiculous. Williamson was a third baseman and a shortstop. He was one of the greatest base runnels in the history of the game. Besides being ohe of tin- greatest inflelders that ever lived, he was also a ditcher and a pitcher. Buck Ewing was undoubtedly the greatest throwing, hitting and base running catcher of them all. But to compare t’obb. the outfielder, to the immortal’ Kelly, who was the craftiest base runner of all times, be sides being one of the best batters and catchers thRt ever lived, would be like comparing a 2:40 horsfe to a 2:10 one To use a hyperbole, it could be said that Mike Kelly behind the. bat and on the bases In the crucial con test of a game sweat mrjre baseball cells into the rim of bfcs cap than some players of to-day have in their skulls. If Tv Colfb is guilty t>f the alleged prima-donna breaks In wanting ex tra hotels and extra rooms from other players and practicing when he wants to—-no one Is to blame but the De troit management themselves. They have petted and coddled him as much as an indulgent mother does to a child she has spoiled. CHRISTY MATBEWSON'S BIG HAGUE GOSSIP N K\V YORK. May Jo. I have deckled to .give milch space hi this article to the fast- going Phillies and Dodgers. The Phillies merit considerable analysis. When the Giants played them recently. I never saw a Philadelphia team playing lietter. and. as there has always been plenty of feeling between the two clubs, they were very Kind to clean up on New York as they did. The team is benefiting from much better conditions tins season than have existed in Philadelphia for many years, and these are mainly re sponsible for the marked improvement, as it will be noted that practically the same men arc appearing in the batting order that landed the team in ttie second division last summer. William kooks, the new president of the club. Is a practical baseball man. and he is giving Dooin a chance to manage the team without wonting him with a lot of trivialities. The result is that Dooin is getting good baseball out of his men, the best that is in each individual, t Again the Quakers have advanced so far into the season without any of the regulars suffering serious injuries and being out of the game, almost a record for the club. It is not likely the team will go through the race with this rosy record, and an injured regular or two will slow (he club up a good deal because Dooin is not well fortified with substitutes. ' I'HE real strength of the team lies in the excellent pitching stall whicli is the unexcelled feature of the .league at this writing. When either Alexander, Chalmers or Sea ton has been working, it has been practically impossible for an oppos ing club to do any hitting. It is this great pitching which has permitted the Phillies to make the good show ing that they have, because they are not a crowd of hard batters them selves. They win their games by small scores, depending on the pitch ers and smooth fielding to prevent the. other side from rolling up many runs. Now. when this pitching staff begins to wdlt under the strain of the race and the heat of the summer, as it is liable to do, the Quakers are going to find a very much harder road to travel. They would have a good chauce for the pennant with more sturdy hatters. As it is now, they are depending on their twirlers and have not better than an outside opportunity for the championship. T the surprise of the race. In Its ante-season performances, it made a very poor showing, being eas.\ for both the Athletics and Washington teams of the American League. From those scores, the Quakers looked like the same old hunch, dead on their feet, as they have always been, but with the opening of the race on their own circuit, they jumped away in good style and are playing fast ball, it is their speed and pitching that have held them up so far. << w HERE will Brooklyn stop?' stirring the baseball followingxpor tion of the populace now. One of these days the Brooklyn team is going to wake up and dis cover that it is rated as a great ball olub. tremble at the idea and start to lose. The Brooklyn boys should finish in the first division. They have talent at present to warrant such a prediction, but they should not crowd the winner of the pennant in September. That is merely -my opinion. Perhaps it is based on the years of mediocre baseball played in Brooklyn and Philadelphia will find it harder traveling Vvhen they start away from home and invade the West. Not that they will encounter particularly tough competition in the West, but. the handicap of playing away from home diamonds and home crowds is going to be a big one. It will be observed that most of the suc cesses of both these teams have been made at home under the watchful eye of home crowds. The Brooklyn club has set its admirers crazy, and men who have not been able to raise FORMWALT AND EDGEWOOD CLASH IN DECIDING GAME Form wait and Edge wood schools will meet in their deciding game of the public school championship series at the Marist College grounds Wed nesday afternoon.

Nobody could see any good in that team before the race opened, with the possible exception of Stal lings, the manager, and .lames Gaff ney, the owner, and yet it is playing ball and becoming the talk of the town in place of the declining Red Sox. Stallings is responsible for It, because he is a manager who builds up a club. Within a year or two the Boston team is going to be one to take into the pennant reckoning 1 believe. The manager is digging up new material which suits his pur-1 poses and developing it. One thing he is looking for and which no other Boston team has possessed for a good many years is speed. His sys tem very closely resembles that fol lowed by McGraw.

"You're a great little, pinch error maker," admitted McGraw. * * ♦ T T must not be thought that I am -I slighting the American League, but there has been little change during the week in that organization. The Athletics are still piling along with a comfortable lead, and Boston is crashing down through the stand ing. giving little indication of having even a look-in for the flag. The Wash ington club is the worst sufferer. Griffith has had some hard luck that has slowed up his team and hurt his chances for the pennant very largely. Foster, who within a year developed into one of the best third basemen in the league, is laid up with typhoid fever and will be out of the game for pretty nearly two months any way. This destroys the smooth work ing of the infield, because Laporte is slow. Johnson, the pitcher, is the won der of the Season. He established his record of fifty-six scoreless in nings last week. To my mind, he is not only the greatest in the gamd to-day, but the greatest in the game has ever produced. He did not make i this record against easy teams, but | against clubs composed of the hard I est hitters in the country. Griffith J did not pick any "spots" for him My hat is off to him. By Jim Glover T O select an all-star baseball team from the prep schools of Atlanta this year is not as difficult as it has been in past seasons. This year there is a star for almost every po sition who is so much better than his near* st competitor that there* is lit tle chance for any disagreement. Here are the names of the players, the positions that they are given and the schools which they represent ed the past season. Name Position School Armistead catcher (Capt.) Boys High Fox pitcher. . Boys.High Weston pitcher .... Teen High Callahan pitcher Marist Lowery first base Marist Bedell second base . Tech High Allen third base Marist Spurlock shortstop.. Boys High Laird left field Tech High Rennolds ... center field .. Tech High Wells right field . . Peacock J. Parks utility Tech High Sam Armis»tead, of Boys High, is without a doubt the best backstop in the league-this year. He steadies a pitcher, leads the league in batting and seldom allows a. man to steal a base. He js made captain of the nine :im lie knows the game thoroughly. Fox Leading Pitcher. The pitching staff is the only prob lem on the tepm. Fox has shown up the best this year, but one man t is not enough to do the twirling for a team, so another had to be selected; and right here is where the rub comes in. Weston and Callahan are so nearly equal in ability that it is nec essary to name both. Callahan iy a pitcher of the sensational style, a pitcher who often fans the first nine or ten men who face him and then when his support weakens blows up and loses- the game. Weston has pitched in only two games this year but his showing in both contests was line. Besides his pitching he is the best batting and fielding twirler of them all. Jim Lowery gets the job at first base without any trouble. He is steady player and about the only man on the Marist team who has not “spilled the beans” in some game. Bill Bedell is the right man for second base. He is fast and has swiped more bases this year than any man in the league. He is also a good batter. Charlie Allen, of Marist, has not played quite up to his usual standard at third base this year, hut. neverthe less. his playing and hitting has beer; good enough to warrant him a place on the all-star team. Weston and Parks, of Tech High, are also crack third slackers, but Weston is also a pitcher and Parks has been given the utility job. Spurlock Crack Shortstop. ^ Spurlock is in a class by himself when it comes to playing shortstop He has* a good head and can hit an l field well. He is just what a short - ' stop should be. Harry Rennolds is the best outfielder in the bunch and is given a place at center. His field ing average for the season is .996 and he is always there with the stick. Johnny Laird is another good out fielder and is especially good on dif ficult balls. The other outfield posi tion is given to Wells, of Peacock, al- r / though he is a shortstop. He is too ^ good a man to be kept off the team and could play the outfield as well as any of them. Jim Parks, of Tech High, gets the position of utility man, fohich is just as important a place as any other one on a team. Parks’ is a good pitcher, crack infielder and a slugger, one of t4te best in the league, and he would be a great asset to this team-. ‘WILD BILL’ CLARK SIGNS TO TWIRL FOR CORDELE COLUMBIA. S.
