/ THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, THURSDAY. MAY 22, 1013. IS BETTER THAN C LEVELAND, May 22—"Fred Falkenberg has a better fade- ball than Christy Mathew- son. Left-handed batters can hit Mathewson but And it almost impos sible to get even a single off Falk enberg." Such is the declaration made by Frank Baker, home-run hitter ex traordinary and hero of the world’s series of 1911. Baker mad* baseball history when he hit Math ew son for four basc« in one of the games between the Athletics and Giants for the world's championship. He hatted against Mathewson In three games of that memorable series. He has made the work of opposing pitchers a study. For that reason, his comparison of the two most famous exponents of the fadeaway are of great' value. "Mclnnis and I were talking about Falkenberg in our room the other .night," Baker continued. “Stuffy said he believed a right-hander could hit Falkenberg easier than a left-hander and I believe he is right. To tell the truth, I would like to see how many hits a team composed entirely of left-handed batters would make off Fred. I’ll bet he would come mighty close to pitching a no-hit game." Ira Thomas, member of Connie Mack’s famous strategy board, is an other admirer of Falkenberg. I have not batted against Fred this year," says Thomas, “but from observation, I would say he has the best fadeaway delivery ever pitched. Matty’s fadeaway comes up to the batter rather slow. He works it as a change of pace. Falkenberg throws his fast ball and fadeaway with the same motion. The batter does not know which it is until he swings and misses. The fadeaway comes up much faster than Matty’s fadeaway, and for that reason is harder to hit. Fred is also the owner of more speed than Matty now has. I would rate Fred as one of the five best pitchers in the country.” Baker’s intimation that left-hand ed batters in particular find Falken berg a puzzle is correct. Falkenberg has pitched and won seven games. In one of those games he was not right, the contest at Chicago when the mer cury registered about 36 and Fred could not get warmed up until he had pitched to at least one batter in each inning. A3 a result, the lead- off man In each round, generally a left-handed batter, was greeting Fred with a hit. Excluding this one game, Fred has held the left-handed batters to 11 hits in 96 times at bat, an average of .114. Counting the Chicago game he has held the portside sluggers to 18 hits in 109 times at bat, an aver age of 165. For a right-handed pitcher this is a phenomenal record. JOE MAN DOT’S'R! B~ WAS BROKEN IN SECOND ROUND LOS ANGELES, May W.—Joe Mandot will not fight again for many months. He will spend that time getting over his encounter with Bud Anderson, who knocked him out at the Vernon arena. Fight fans learned to-day for the first time the terrific handicap under which Joe fought. In he second round Ander son fractured one of Mandot’s ribs, mak ing loe'a famous left useless during the emainlng ten rounds. Mandot is going to the mountain*: uhI will not enter the ring for six month*. He has called off all future PICATO MAY MEET WATSON IN LONG BOUT ON COAST MUTWJIR 'COLUMN* SAN FRANCISCO. May 22.— Charles Plcato, the youngest of the three brothers of the Los> Angeles family of fighters, is In the city look ing for bouts. IAke his brother, Charles Is a lightweight, and will probably make his local debut in the four-round game. Babe, who has boxed here before and made good against the best of the local four-’ rounders, may be matched with Red Watson for a 30-round bout before Jim Griffin’s club in June. EDMONTON OFFERS $25,000 FOR RITCHIE-WELSH BOUT EDMONTON, ALBERTA, May 22 - The Edmonton Athletic Club announced to-lay that it would offer $25,000 for a championship bout between Freddie faelsh and Willie Ritchie. Harry Pol- lock has accepted for Welsh. Pollock also wired Tommy Carey and Jim Cof- froth offering to let Welsh meet Ritchie in California, the winner to take all, with a $6,000 side bet. Welsh is soon to pick up $9,000 in soft money in Western Canada for four bouts $3.50 Reoipe Free, For Weak Mon. Send Name and Address To-day— You Can Have It Free and Be Strong and Vigorous. I have In my possession a prescrip tion for nervous debility, lack of vig or, weakened manhood, falling mem ory and lame back, brought on by excesses, unnatural drains, or the fol lies of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right in their own homes—without any additional help or medicine—that I think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility, quickly and quiet ly, should have a copy. So I have determined to send a copy of the prescription free of charge, in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope, to any man who will write me for it. This prescription comes from a phy sician who has made a special study of men. and I am convinced it is the surest-acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor failure ever put together. I think I owe it to my fellow men to send them a copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who is weak and discouraged with repeated failures may stop drugging himself with harmful patent medicines, se cure what I believe is the quickest acting restorative. upbuilding.

A great many doctors would charge 13.00 to $5.00 for merely writing out a prescription like this—but I ser.d it entirely free. T OM SHARKEY, who aspired to be heavyweight champion of the world before he became the keeper of a public house and tips the scales at 225 pounds, wouldn’t ad mit that he had been knocked out by a 120-pounder, as published in the New York papers the other day. But he bought wine! Sharkey was acting cashier in his saloon when a reporter asked him: "How about that story that you were knocked out, Tom?" Tom gave a right hook and left jab at the cash register, rang up $2.50 and called: "Bring us a quart of wine!" The wine was brought and Sharkey, again was asked about the report that he was* knocked out. "By that skinny greeaer?” he ex claimed. "Say, did you ever see a picture of my babies?” and he dragged down it photograph of four horses and added: "These are my babies." "But how about that knockout, Tom ?" Strawberries Are Fine, Too. "Say. you ought to see my straw berry* patch at Sheepsheacl Bay," he said, ignoring the question. "I’m go ing to get 150 quarts this summer." "But how about the knockout?" the reporter persisted. "Pretty good wine, that." the heavy weight suggested! "Don’t often come across like that." "But the knockout?” "Let’s have another bottle on me." Sharkey said, still ignoring the ques tion. "Won’t you have another? Well, let me tell you, son. I’m think ing of going back into the fighting business. I’m as good as ever and a real white hope." "But did ‘Yellow’ knock you out?” "It’s a shame you won’t have an other bottle on the house. Good stuff it is. too," and pointing to a painting of himself in fighting tdgs Sharkey remarked: "That’s the way a man should look in the ring." Then he gave the cash register an other wallop and rang up the second bottle of wine. And the reporter fled. According to the story about the knockout Sharkey was telling friends of his pugilistic career in the rear room of his saloon in East Four teenth Street. “Yellow” Puts Him Out. He got to his fight with Fitzsim mons when he came out second best, and banging bis big fist on the table, shouted: “I can lick any man between Four teenth Street and the Battery!" "You couldn’t lick a postage stamp." came from George Davis, known as "Yellow, the Newsboy.” That statement was too much for Sharkey, and he challenged Davis, a featherweight, to fight. The men. so the story ran, peeled oft their coats and in’ a ring formed of chairs' they began sparring. Sud denly Davis delivered a vicious kick, which caught Sharkey in the pit of the stomach. He went down in a heap and stayed down. He was knocked out. The police came, hut the fighter said hp didn’t need medical attention. He had an awful headache. * * * T HE Harvard varsity crew, dissat isfied with the quality of food served on the training tables at the Harvard Varsity Club, struck the other dav for better edibles. The oars men in both eights* returned to the clubs and places where they were accustomed to eat before going into active training. * «■ ■» I ONG ago, when there was a run- ner on second, it was* a favorite diversion with Mike K<lly and Buck Ewing to let the ball > de through their paws, turn frantically round, and give a thrilling imitation of it maddened catcher pursuing a passed ball. The runner, with a loud cackle of joy, would immediately light out for third, whereupon the catcher, calmly picking up the hall from be hind his heel, would chuck to the waiting third sacker for a certain killing. Tricks of that kind were often put over in those ancient days —but the modern catchers nev seem to think of such devices. • • * CTATISTIGLa v athletics at ^ Princeton University haw entered a claim for .1 M. Mann '76, as the discoverer of the art of curve pitch ing. According to baseball lore avail able at Princeton, Mann was the star pitcher of the college team known as the Nassau nine at that time. During the fall of 1874 Mann pitched several game** in one week and his peculiar delivery wore the skin from the tip of his fingers. In the final contest of the week he was obliged to play third base. Late in the game he was forced to relieve the pitcher in order to save the game. Owing to the tender condition of his fingers Mann was obliged to throw the ball with little or no grip. He immediate ly noticed that his delivery was break ing in an odd manner, which caused opposing batters to strike out. Dur ing the winter months* he continued to experiment and in the spring blos somed out as a pitcher with a real ouleurve at his command. * * * 'C'DDIE A INSMITH is the only ■*-' catcher of recent years to be credited with a putout at first base. The Washington first sacker made the putout at St. Louis, and it goes to him because he was the only man on two ball clubs! who was wife to what was going on. Agnew was at hat and hit the ball. It hit his foot and rolled in fair ter ritory to Laporte at third. Agnew did not run but sat down and rubbed his foot. Laporte did not throw. Finally he chucked the ball to Schae fer who was playing first. Herman stood still with the ball in his hand and did not touch first. Ainsmith, the only man besides the umpires who realized that Agnew' had hit a fair ball, walked down to firs'!, took the ball from Schaefer ' and stepped on the bag. Umpire Fergu son called Agnew out. The play went Laporte to Schaefer to Ainsmith. * «• * O UR old pal Bitin’ Dan Dixon is all ready for his fight with Cy clops Sam. We received the follow ing letter from him this morning: Mr. Mutt and Mr. Jeff, Atlanta Geor gian: Bud Stebblns, the town constubel stir- ed up an afful muss out to Joshua when he took that feller Ike Mann to the town lockup. Bud must have stopped several times on his way home and had some more ri hi balls, and the stuff that those country taverns sell is some squir rel climbing medicine, well 1 gess. Bud was in terribel shape when he got home, and bein’ that it was so late Bud couldent get in the lockup caws justis scriby keeps the keys, so Bud locks poor Iky by the handcuffs to the cooler door and left him there ‘bout mid night and after Bud had gone Ike did some tall yellin’ and woke up the hull town and among the rest that rushed to the jail was .Judge Scriby, so Ike told him the hole story and the judge was powerful mad. They couldent anyone find Bud till he next roomin' caws Bud had climb ed into the haymow, not darin' to go home; anyway they got the key to the lanricuffs and unlocked poor Ike and let him go. -the Judge told Dad that bee was goin to town and serve an njunction on the flte so as to stop the further disgracln the beautiful hamlet d Joshua, through me fitin a prize fite. >ad told the Judge that I was goin «i pay off the mortgage with the money it I won on the fite and as the Judge ilds the mortgage on the farm it * erned to cool him off some and the fite 'll come off just the same, my manager got word that Cyclops -1 was all rite and the flte is com- in of as per date and ill rite you all bout the file In my next letter. im glad that Sam has had that stufnmic ubbel caws that Is where I’ll get In most of my wallops and if I get home one or two of my haymakers in lunch room Sam will have stummic it ubbel a long time to come. ! ain’t feelin any to well myself and last 12 telefone poles i climbed yesterday was the dog gondest hardest - i ever done.

Work of Local Hurlers Keeps Race Exciting ® O Q Q o ® QO @ & Q Crackers Win Games; Pitchers Toss Them Off White City Park Now Open By Percy H. Whiting. A H yes, as we said before: If the Atlanta pitchers were even moderately effective, the othsr Dixie League clubs would have to take out an injunction to win.a fame from the Crackers Yes, indeed—IF THEY WERE But they AREN’T. It really was accommodating of the Cracker hurlers to turn out a little worse than everybody expected. It cheers up the race so. * • * MOW take this Mobile team, which ^ is here for three battles with the Crackers. It’s largely a lobster team, outside of the slab men and one awful slugger. But the hurlers have been going good and with a lit tle support they have won an awful lot of games. The Gulls have reached Atlanta with a five and a half game lead over tne Crackers. The coming ■se ries can’t pull them out of first place even if the Crackers make a clean sweep of it. But then it can warp their lead an awful lot. If the Atlanta pitchers go even fairly well lt‘s a cinch—but you can’t tell. * • • TAKE yesterday’s game, which the * Crackers failed to take, 7 to 6. Bill Smith eased Pitcher Dent into the bickering. For six Innings lie held the Memphis team runless. And while he was doing it the busy little Crackers presented him with a com fortable five run lead. Now any pitcher who kisses off a lead of five runs has something the matter with the old throwing mech anism—something blamed serious. And that’s just what Dent did in the seventh. The first three men wno faced him singled. Joe Agler then contributed an error. After which came a three bagger and a single. * * * O F course this does not necessv- rlly prove that Dent will not do. But it is a strong indication that he’ll have to cheer up a lot his next time out. A pitcher who can’t win with a five run lead is considerably to the bad. Gilbert Price was sent in after the game was gone. He walked the first two men who faced him. let the next single and then escaped with only one run against him. Parsons started for the Turtles and after losing the game had it hand. l back to him on the bats of his team mates. With a pinch on in the ninth Kissinger was sent tn. The Crackers made an awful effort to rout Kissinger. Joe Dunn got on the coaching line and called him "old monkey face” so loud and vigorously that Umpire Hart canned him. Despite all the efforts to rattle him Kissinger landed Smith and Blsland. Then Joe Agler strdde out, kicked the bats into a disorderly pile, picked out one at random, stalked to the plate and atoned for his error with a beautiful two bagger. This left the fate of the series res f - ing between Graham and Kissinger, and the Rube got the better of the argument, forcing Pat to pop a weak one. • » * TN any close ball game that Mem- *■ phis team needs a guide. They have pulled some ferocious hones at various times in the series, but Par sons nearly uncorked the prize. With the bases full of Crackers Wednesday Alperman grounded to him. And Parsons started to throw TO FIRST. It was only the wild shrieks of his teammates, "Throw it home, throw it home,” that saved him from making a miscalculation that would have been a classic. * • * WEDNESDAY was Ad Men’s Day v ' at the park and a very consil- erable sum of money was raised to ward their Baltimore convention fund. The members ot the club went to the park In automobile trucks and cut up f like a lot of college boys, with cheer ing and stunts, throughout the con test. • * • A S an old family friend we again gratuitously offer the suggestion that the Crackers either practice bunting or cut it out of the cata logue of plays. -It is the one play that regularly goes wrong, and it b’ a pity to see men who can do ev erything else in the world poking up miserable pops. Anybody can learn to bunt—-with practice. RED SOX MAKE FORTUNE EVEN IF THEY FAIL TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP AGAIN SOUTHERN LEAGUE. Games Thursday.

R. Murdoch B OSTON, May 22.—With their sea son just about one-fifth finished the world’s champion Red Sox have played before about a quarter of a million spectators. If the team returns to anything like its old form It should have no difficulty in keeping up this attendance throughout the season. That would mean a total at tendance for the year of about one million and a quarter. Should the Sox gradually improve until they finally strike their old gait, thereby getting actually Into another pennant race in the final month or two of the season, this attendance would Jump tremendously. A close finish throughout the final weeks of the season -would mean crowds of enormous size day after day. and the figure would go beyond a million and a half. So you see the winning of th*> championship of the world In baseball means very much more than the re ceipts of the year in which the title is taken. It means greater profits the succeeding year, even if the tea.n falls behind its standard of the tri umphant season. A total attendance of a million and a quarter means receipts of more than three-quarters of a million dol lars. A million and a half will leave about $900,000 at the gate. The Red Sox will receive consider ably more than half of the total -e- ceipts. because their home crowds will be greater than those on foreign fields. It is safe to predict that the Red Sox this year, not considering the possibility of a world series, will make a greater profit than they did last year when a world series and its net gain of about $90,000 left about a quarter of a million dollrs "velvet" in the club treasury. The group of men who invested in a half interest in the Red Sox a year ago last winter—among them James R. Me A leer, Robert B. Me Roy. C. M. Randall, of Chicago. Jake Stahl, Ban Johnson (presumably) and some of their friends—made nearly enough profit last year to return them their investment. Of course all the profits were not divided. But they atand to the own ers’ credit, neverthleas. So what th* club makes this year will be prin cipally "velvet” to the men mentioned above who own one-half, and to the Taylor Interest#, who hold title te Fenway Park and a half interest ia the club. This is the reason why the mag nates who control the world’s cham pions are not stricken with worry over the slump of the club. Of course* they want to win again, both for the increased profits that another victory would bring, and for the sake of good sportsmanship, as well. But they s*tanu to make a fortune, win or lose. The relation of this is meant to show' th t the Sox owners have a tre mendous interest in this year’s club from now on. The team will eoms home June 3 for a long stay. Every J club In the league will visit Fenway Park before they go West again. The showing of the club in the next two weeks will determine the size of the early crowds at FVsnway Park. An! the work of the Sox. after they return home, will affect thousands of later daily attendants, one way or the other.
