HFARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN- BASEBALL AND OTHER SPORTS SUNDAY, MAY 2.'. 101H
G ET ’em; get out and get ’em.
It's easy enough if you have
the coin to burn, and If you
haven’t, edee over a bit of the wise
stuff on the other guy. thereby dem
onstrating that you are a real man
ager.
That’s about how the situation
shapes up from a baseball standpoint
at present in the circuit over which
the eminent jurist from Arkansas
holds sway. Practically one-quarter
of the present season is now on its
way to regions that know no ‘‘come
backs.” and managers and owners fig
ure that the proper move is to plug
up holes right now. or else settle down
to as comfortable place as possible in
the bunch and talk hopefully of next
year.
Already practically every team in
the circuit has had a chance to take
a wallop at every other. As a re
sult, some very clear conclusions have
been reached that r eam? of go )d
white copy paper have been wasted
during the past two months telling of
the promise of aspiring candidates, in
practically every burg holding a fran
chise in the major circuit of Dixie.
Wherefore, the tip has been passed
to strengthen, fortify, brace ’em up.
where they are wavering, and you can
take a casual slant a1 the situation
and see that they are all doing it.
Major league managers are turning
loose the “near-goods” and some that
do not rate so high, and some swift,
snappy grabbing is being done.
Right here at home (’olonel Bill
Smith is doing an awful lot of pon-
o'ering on just how to round out a
club tiiat will draw brackets. The
first proposition that cropped out
boldly was that of filling in at the
short field. Len Dobard and Walter
Keating weer driven full opportunities
to possess themselves of the job, but
neither filled the order. Following
them, Rebel Williams was assigned to
the task until h* was awarded to the
Pelicans, though it may as well be
stated that he didn’t look over-
promising while working here.
Bislsnd Fills Position.
It looks, however, ns though Bill
has landed the man suited to the pp-
sition in Bisland. The ex-Pirate has
been going great, and it may be that
a real successor to our old friend
Scotty Walker has come to dwell in
our midst. Probably Mr. Bisland
does n’t know Mr. Walker, never hav
ing been members of the same club
that is. at the same time—but it may
be said that this intended as a com
pliment.
But the seizure ot a good shortstop
/has not entirely dispelled Williams
perplexity. There is still some spec-
nation on the local gunners. Smith
i ; y< arning for a couple of dependable
hurlers. fcu‘ as yet has not been able
to get the men he is after.
ft is generally admitted that no
!• • ss than thj’ee of the present layout
t ;n be called dependable, though
reit'-ar ra.nk^ <°s a star. Another
should come through strong on past
* performances, but the coming is yet
l> due. The new acquisition has not
drawn a thorough test and no deduc
tions c an be made.
Elberfeld After Hurler.
Over ,n Chattanooga Kid Elberfeld
Is likewise doing a bit of shuffling in
an effort to frame a winning combi
nation. A couple of pre-season pho-
iioms from lower circuits have been
lu.bel -d “no good” and turned back,
while others are drawing chances.
Pi teller Troy was given transporta
tion back to Detroit, and Roy Golden
was likewise reassigned to the mer
ries of Manager Huggins, of the Car
dinals. He lias added Rudy Sum
mers, formerly with Nashville, and is
on the lookout for other likely-looking
hurler?.
He has also passed up Otto Jordan
rnd has just recently turned loose
Dug Harbison. who, by the way, was
secured after the season opened. In
their places he has signed up Flick, a
youngster, for the keystone bag, and
now has added a third baseman in
the person of Williams, secured from
Montreal. In addition to these, he has
taken on Outfielder Betcher. from
Newark; Kelly, from Jer.-ey City, and
Johnson, from Spokane, together # \vlth
Pitcher Jimmy Dygert, recently with
Toledo.
Dobbs Makes Changes.
Johhny Dobbs has likewise been
doing a bit of shifting over Montgom
ery way. Jack Spratt failed to do the
- expected at the short field, and has
been replaced by Cotton Knaupp, ob
tained from the Pelicans. Bobby
Tarleton has passed from the Alaba
ma capital to York, in the Tri-State
1 League, and has been replaced by
Kutina, secured from the St. Louis
Orovvns. Also the Billikcn manager
recently put over a trade whereby
Piggy Paige was turned loose for
Charlie Case.
Fp in Nashville, Bill Schwartz and
President Hersig are shelling the
woods. The chief quest seems to be
for hurlers. Earl Fleharty and
George Beck have been traveling
pretty well, and Kid Williams is ex-
•peeted to fall into line, but the rest
have been unsatisfactory. Charlie
Case has been traded to Montgomery
for Paige, but no great things may
be expected from Piggy. The Cincin
nati Reds have handed over two.
slabmen in Dahlgren and McManus,
but neither of those have shown
enough to make Nashville fans grow
enthusiastic. Besides hurlers, The
Boy Manager has recently purchased
Catcher George Gibson, presumably
to replace Bill Ludwig.
Barons in Need of Infielders.
Manager Molesworth appears to
have confined his efforts to plugging
holes in his inner works as well as
in the outfield, being evidently pretty
well pleased with the manner in
which his hurlers are going. In the
place of Benno and Bodus, the two
youngsters who made the initial trip
to this city as gardeners, he has se
en red Kniselv, who came down from
the Cubs.* He also obtained from the
same source McDonald, who is ex
pected to fill in the vacancy left by
Rafael Almeida. This, no doubt,
means that Carroll is to be carried as
utility, while Herndon, leading batter
of the South Atlantic last year, will
be let out. He has also added Catcher
Clifton to help Mayer in the absence
of Dilger. who is out with an attack
of appendicitis.
Bernhard Is Satisfied.
.4.1 Memphis Silent Bill Bernhard
appears to be pretty well satisfied
with tbr way his dub shapes up. de
spite a lot of howling before the bar
rier was sprung on the race. Bil!
has a knack of getting.about all there
is in a ball club out pt it, with a little
added for good measure, and he will
no doubt keep his bunch up in the
i ace. H* has for the most part a
bunch of experienced players, and

probably figures that they will be long
on the headwork, even if they are
slow-moving.
Thanks to a running start. Mike
Finn has not seen fit to do a great
deaf of (hanging so far. His chief
acquisitions have been Robertson and
Jacobson in the outfield. Mike no
doubt figured that Big Jake would re
vert as soon as the glamor of the
getaway in the National League wore
away, and evidently had a place saved
out for him. In order to make way
for Home Run Robertson, he found it
necessary to shelve old Bill Maloney.
As long as they are going well, Mike
is inclined to let well enough do, but
now that his crew looks to be skid
ding. it is a safe bet that personal
communication bearing a Mobile post
mark will be landing in more than
one big league mogul's office before

Frank Refuses to Worry.
Strange as it may seem. Charlie
Frank has not bothered to do any
great amount of hiring and firing, al
though his club is anchored in the
last notch. He turned Knaupp over
to the Billikens and is working Rebel
Williams in his place. He has also
taken over Pitcher Wilson from
Cleveland. As evidence that Lharlie
is not worrying to any great extent,
attention may be called to the fact
that he allowed Boston to turn Jay
Kirke over to Toledo, although he
knows the valu ' of Kirke’s big stick,
and could no doubt have landed him,
had he v.anted him or felt that he
needed him.

CHATTANOOGA, TLN.V. Ma 24
New Orleans got a three-run lead ; ri
the first inning to-day, but the lo
cals immediately evened it in their
half and then hammered Brenton so
heavily that the fray resolved itself
into a farce. The game was called
at the end of the sixth to allow the
visitors to catch a train for Mobile.
The hitting of King and Coyle fea
tured. Coveleskie allowed but twj
scratch hits after the opening inning.

Elberfeld’s Lads Look Good Now
C HATTANOOGA. TENN. May 24.
—It's jusl about as difficult to
convince the individual mem
bers of the Lookout squad that they
will not capture the 1913 bunting of
Father Kavanaugh's free-for-all as it
is for William Jennings to convince
the pestiferous Japs that the Webb
land bill is not a contravention of the
treaty rights between the Flowery
Kingdom and Uncle Sam land. There
is not a member of the Noogan con
tingent from the baf boy to the Kid
who does not sincerely believe that
the locals will be in the lead when
taps are blown for the season.
The majority of the Elberfeldians
are expressing their sincere belief
merely by their actions and by the
joyous consistency of their ef
fective work upon the battle field hut
‘‘Gabby” Street has gone so far as to
place himself on record as being will
ing to wage some few of his simo-
1 leons without odds that the locals will
distribute the choking dust over the
rest of the field. The maker of Wal
ter Johnson has but one qualification
in the terms of his wager and this is
that Lefty Hunt shall prove an ef
fective hurler.
All Depends On Hunt.
Seriously, if Hunt sustains the re
putation given him by Herre Meek,
upon whose recommendation he was
purchased, the locals w r ill have a
hurling staff that will be tremendously
formidable and it will have the fur
ther advantage of having southpaws
in the majority. According to Elber
feld this is of inestimable importance.
Coveleskie, Sommers and More are
now going grandly and with Dygert
in the relief role ordinary pitching
alone from Hunt is necessary to forti
fy the club to an almost invincible
degree in the region of the mound.
Coveleskie is in even grander form
than in 1910. In his last three games
the Pole has allowed but seven hits
or an average of but two and one-
third per game. When it is taken
Into consideration that the Pelicans.
Turtles and Dobbers were his oppon
ents his effectiveness will be fully ap
preciated. Two of the frays were
shutouts, one against Rube Evans and
the other against (’. Brown, while
the third was a 4 to 1 victory over
Doc Newton—nor was the marker
earned. Sommers and More are go
ing practically as well, although the
average of hits, of course, is slight
ly higher. Jimmy Dygert is rapidly
rounding into form and is prepared
to answer any number of S. O. S.
calls.
Williams Utility Man.
The addition of Williams appears
to have satisfactorily solved the left
field problem and with King and Els
ton both going in grand form it is a
puzzle to decide what will be done
with Johnson. The only solution
which offers itself, and the one which
will undoubtedly be adopted, consists
of placing Williams in the utility role.
This will necessitate the release of
Betcher.
The infield is now going Immense.
In fact this department has played
flawless ball since the departure of
Otto Jordan and the addition of
Flick from the Athletics. The un
derstudy of Eddie Collins has devel
oped into a wonderful ball player un
der the Kid's guidance and the finan
cial ailments of the local magnates
will find Carl’s sale an effective pan
acea.
Elberfeld is playing as grand a
game as ever in his brilliant career
and with Coyle and Gillespie going
good the Kid should not worry about
the innfm defense.
Street Deserves Credit.
In Street the locals have this year
for the first time secured a real
receiver and the work of Gabby is
given at least 25 per cent of the
credit for the grand showing of the
club during the past two weeks. The
effect of Street upon the hurling
corps, and Coveleskie especially, has
been little short of marvelous.
As it now stands the Kid considers
the Noogan aggregation about the
classiest in the league and he is ad
monishing about seven different pilots
in the league to look out for the
Lookouts!
GREENSBORO WINS.
GREENSBORO. GA„ May 24. —Greens
boro defeated the fast Woodville first
nine by the score of 9 to 5.
