T HE won Bor of It fi that the
Pelicans have won those
thirteen names that now
grace their records! How did they
get them 0 What happened? The
'Felder Mystery” is as nothing
compared with It
On what the Pelicans showed
here yesterday, w'hen they lost
to the Crackers 8 to 3, they
wouldn’t be entitled to win thir
teen games in ten years
According to Charley Frank his
club isn’t altogether to blame. As
is the case with most tail-end
clubs injuries have done their
devastating work. Both of the
Pelicans' catchers have been shot
away—and Yanta Is out of the
game for a year with a broken leg.
Manush's bum knee has gone
wrong again and he Is out of It
—for an indefinite stay. It is
possible that he will never be ills
old self again. They think so in
Toledo, where the accident hap
pened.
The Pelicans are complaining of
another affliction of the tail-
enders—their nerve is gone. They
couldn't take a game If It was
handed to them. They are the
Worst fielders in the league and
they did not improve their aver
ages any in Monday’p game.

P LLIOTT DENT more or less
vindicated himself Monday.
Bill Smith slipped him in and In-
beat the Pelicans He weakened
f fraction in the eighth and ninth
hut he showed a lot better than
his last out. With plenty of work
this man may prove a star. He
does not seem at his best yet. but
maybe the next time he is worked
he will be able to go nil the way
through.

'PHIS Cast-Off's Revenge stuff
* is getting to be a howling
farce '•Rebel” Williams, a
Cracker-for-a-day a while back,
turned up Monday with the
fiercest sort of hatting and laced
out four hits in four times up.
He had hut one fielding chance,
which he looked out for in good
style
William’s regular hatting stride
is so far below that which he
showed yesterday as to make the
whole thing a blooming burlesque.
But it always happens. Generally
the cast-offs win the game. May
be the fact that Williams was an
Involuntary cast-off saved the
Crackers from that misfortune.
* * ♦
VXMLLIAMS was not the only
man who did some surpris
ing batting Another was Pitcher
Dent, who scratched a couple
through the infield and heat them
to first.
Snedecor put a scratch and a
double to his credit. He and
Williams made three-fifths of the
Pels* hits.
Welchonce put a single and a
very timely three-bagger on the
l*eoords. Welchonce had Dunn
and Dent on bases and. of course,
something ferocious was needed
to score them. Welchonce hit it
all right and both of the speed
merchants tallied.
Harry Welchonce made six nice
put-outs yesterday and added to
the half-dozen he made the day
before, gave him twelve put-outs
In two dayp. His batting was
timely but lie made one of those
old-time “Atlanta bunts”—a wal
loping drive to Evans which re
sulted In a put-out at second.
THE Crackers have tw’o more
games with the Pelicans and
ought to win them both, unless
the Pels show' a tremendous im
provement Charley Frank has
no pitcher calculated to stop the
local bathers and his fielders are
pretty much to the had.
Thursday Montgomery turns up
for four games. On Friday, be
• aiise of Federal Decoration Day,
there will be two games.

a w vITU h band concert an-
\/V nounced for Sunday and with
the date for the opening set
for Friday night, June t>. and with
l he board motordrome at the old oi
t us grounds pretty well finished. At
lanta's season of motorcycle racing
in the ‘ giant washtub” is closing in.
And vou get the idea of what is
going to happen from the expression
racing in a giant washtub.” That’s
exactly what it is like. Jack Prinee’s
new track is little more and jio less
than a board track set on edge.
Instead of riding on the floor of the
tub the racers hurtle around on the
inside of the sides, like cockroaches
on the kitchen wall, setting laws of
gravity at naught and affording to
the spectators the most spectacular
form of racing the world has ever
known.
.lack Prince really lias a big offer
ing for the Atlanta public. His track
is the latest and best board track in
the world. It represents the last word
in the building of board tracks. Jack
has gathered in Atlanta already the
best motorcycle racers in the world.
He has more on tlie way. He is erect
ing comfortable seats, every one of
which commands a view of the big
inclosure. He has engaged a hand
He has arranged for a corking car
service a service that will take the
patrons of the motordrome from Five
Points to the track in barely more
than five minutes. He has an at
tractive program for opening night.
As a result he will be greeted by one
of the largest gatherings that ever
witnessed a motorcycle race in Amer
ica. A

Tom Jones says he will bet $10,000 on

Gunboat Smith again. Mr. Jones shows
his business acumen by speaking thus.
It would cost him at least $7.50 to hire

Not that we care to queer an honest
