THE ATLANTA GjlOLGI^xV aSu NEWS, FANS BELIEVE CHIPPELLE 1 “B’ By Percy H. Whiting. IG Bill *Ch« him the chance. 1s going to he the sensation of the Southern Teague season,” says an Old-Time Fan (No, they neve# want their names used but this one is a genuine wlss guy). *'He is going to be the Bartley, the Maxwell and the Demar* e of the 1913 reason” * • • AND It. might happen. Stranger -” things have. For Instance, take the historic ease of Bill Bartley. Wil liam was a grand looking pitcher once—bo good that even Connie Mack lilted him and carted him around^ awhile. He was a fine, big, handsome blue-eyed, ladies'-day-hero sort of a chap but he didn't have a lot of stuff, it seemed. Bill dropped back to the Eastern League but he didn't show a lot there and Charley Frank, who had owned his services before, grabbed him. Frank gave him a thorough trial and then paseed this verdict: "All Bill Bartley has left Is his looks.” And then he sold him to BUI Smith. Atlanta manager. That was In 1909, when Bill was putting up a great fight for the pennant, but he was In some thing the same fix as this year Bill had everything but pitchers. The league figured It a fine Joke that Frank had played on Bill Smith. They chuckled over It mightily. Nobody knows what happened but Bartley came to life the day he hit Atlanta. With good support he couldn't lose a game. For the whole season he piled up a mark of 19 won and 11 lost But several of his de feat* came before Smith bought Tilm. The rest came after the pennant was cinched. While the battle was at Its wannest he hardly lost a game Not even Johns and Fisher did more, than Bartley In cinching the rag • • • /CONSIDER then the case of Bert V' Maxwell. Tne tall Arkansas chap got a big league trial and was turn ed back to the Southern where he was kicked around like a second hand football. Atlanta had him In 1909 but he couldn't make it here and was turned over to New Orleans, where he did little. He stack there the rest of 1909, all of 1910 and part of 1911. And all the while he was going bad. Then he was handed to Birmingham for a eonR. Right than Maxwell came to life. Ko pitcher the league has ever known Showed more stuff He was tin reigning sensation. And so good did he look that the Giants bought him for a stiff price. He showed but little for McGr&w and was turned lover to the International League, where he has since remained He wasn't "good" for long, but while he wae he made a punk ball club look J treat . . . C OMING down to morp recent times there is the celebrated case of A1 Demarne. He couldn’t show anything much for Chattanooga and the Crack *rs thought so little of him that af ter they got him on a deni they didn’t trouble to have him report. Last Near Demaree went to Mobile. He didn’t have a lot of team behind him. but he set the league ablaze and transformed the naturaJly weak GuH* into a dangerous team. • • • ■^OTICE the similarity between ' these cases and that of Bill Chap- Jwlle. Bill has been to the big leagues He has looked good but per formed indifferently for several clubs - of the league. He Is shifted to At lanta when the team Is In distress. True, Chappelle hasn't set the " league to smoldering yet. but he hasn't pitched a bad game for the Crackers, and he seems ready to win a bunch "of them when he gets the right sup- * port. *' Chappelle has the size and the strength to be a great pitcher There never was any question about his "speed” and he has a lot of other "’ stuff besides. But somehow he hasn't fitted Into any of the teams he has been with lately. Bill Smith and his players believe * that Chappelle Is sure to be one of ’ the sensations of the season. Maybe so, maybe not. It' would •'help a lot If he happened to get go- - Ing right. And, as was remarked before, stran ger things have happened. ;don’T scratch t V you only knew how quickly and easily > Tettanre cum *c*cma. wharf everything ) t 1m (alls, you wouldn t suffer and acratch Tetterine Cures Eczema gead what Vlra Thomas Thompson.

HUGHES North Broad St., Atlanta. Ga. iposlte Third National Bank. NER HONOR 1 \ / WHAT VWEfcE' -IIS MAhJ UWttt U UCKJN&- By “Chick” Evans. A BOUT twenty miles north of the city of Detroit, on the road be tween Detroit and Pontiac, are the beautiful Bloomfield Hill*. De troit Itself Is situated on a bit of flat land and for that reason these hills come upon one in the nature of a surprise. Two .years ago a golf club was formed by qome sport-lov ing citizens of Detroit and a site for the course was selected out among the Bloomfield Hills. A great deal of money has been spent on the links; the course has been gradually worked Into excellent shape and from a scenic standpoint, few places excel It. The course can be conveniently reached either by the Interurban, which runs through there hills from Detroit on the way to Pontiac, or by an automobile ’ or carriage. As It happened to be my lucky day, I went out to the course a few weeks ago In an automobile with Thomas Neal, Joel Stockard. Standish Backus and Gilbert Waldo, who Is known as "the man who beat Hilton.” The ride w-as an especially pleasant one, through the residence part of the city, then past large automobile factories and finally a delightful run through a little real country. Soon the road, which I was told had been rising Im perceptibly ever since we left the city, made a bold Hope upward and we found ourselves among the hills, and on every side were beautiful houses with s|>aclous lawns. At last, through a little valley, I saw the club house, gayly bedecked with flags, and I heard irregularly across the hills the strains of murlc. Then we turned up a little driveway and found our selves 1st full view of the golf club on Its formal opening day. Fine View From Club House, The club house Is new and situated on an eminence, and from every side it commands beautiful views of hill and valley and handsome residences. It was a vision to make glad the heart of any golfer, and the wanderer from Chicago, after doing full justice to a delicious luncheon, fairly jumped Into his golfing clothes and made for the links. The first three holes were long and a bit strenuous. They were two wood en shots and brassle for me, and then came a shorter hole. The third hole presents an apple orchard as an un usual carry from the tee Fancy driv ing across that orchard pink with bloom In the spring, or of sending a ball crashing through fruit In au tumn. The seventh is one of the best nat ural holes I ever saw. The tee Is set In the woods and the drive is out and through a widening avenue of trees, and then there is a hill with a plateau which covers the right hand half and another a. little farther up which covers the left-hand side. The good and daring driver plays to carry onto this plateau, but the player who pulls too much runs off and the one who cannot reach ends up In a hollow. The next shot Is Just a vary ing mashie chip Links Not Yet Bunkered. Of course the links are not trapped or bunkered vet and, therefore, not a green is guarded nor is a pulled or sliced shot penalized. Another bad feature is the neurness of the holes and the paralleling which permits wide tee shots to land unpenalized on another course. It seems to me that there are too many blind holes. It might be a good Idea to force the player of a poor shot to make a blind one but the good player should have a fair chance to show his skill. It was interesting to look over the Bloomfield Hills course and see that H S Colt had been there. For a moment, as I looked at the stakes that mark s-uggested Improvements, I thought I was back on Chicago Golf At the seventh hole Mr. Colt advises the digging away of the faces of two hills to make hazards. The ninth Is a difficult and pretty hole ending near the club house and the eighteenth gives a long finishing hole dlrectlv in front of the club house Detroit has some excellent golfers and in their company mv day on the I beaut-'ul Bloomfield links war a very | enjoy„ ole one Y.

Kilbane in that city July 4 White City Park Now Open CHWSTY MATMWSCM'S BIG LL LEAGUE GOSSIP C INCINNATI, June 2.—The Giants are not beaten .vet. You cannot beat a ball club like the New York team In May. The recent defeats have awakened the players to the ne cessity of hustling, and they are starting West determined to fight their way to the top, as the team did back in 1911 when we won the pennant In the eventual dash to the tvire. “What is Philadelphia going to do?” is the question that is stirring those interested In baseball now. The Quakers got a good start, and were in the race until July back in 1911, but they began to slip after lhat, and finished entirely out of the running for first place. The Giants played a series with the Quakers in the first part of July in that year, and they won four out of five games from us. The carping critics declared that the Giants were gone after those battles, and began to recite our obituaries ( but the team flashed through the West in a final sprint, inspired by the fighting spirit of McGraw, and won the pennant, al though it was said broadcast that it could not be done. * * • T HERE is one factor on the New York team with which most folks do not reckon when considering the season's prospects. This is John McGraw. No ball club in the world can go through a season and not play the game for him if he has to shake it from the roots to the top. McGraw admits and concedes that the Giants are playing bad ball now, but he is not letting it go at that. If you could listen to some of his post-morteitfs in the clubhouse after rhe games you would consider a blast of dynamite to he a nerve soother compared to his conversation. He picks the games apart and shows where they were lost. He lias done a lot of picking lately, too. What the Giants lack at present is the old hitting punch in the pinches which they had carried for two years and which had made them famous and champions, too. The greatest tonic the team could have at present would be four or five more victories, and these wins are bound to come right now, in my opinion. We move along to St. Louis from here, where we should encounter fairly easy trav- elnig in spite of the fact that the Car dinals gave us a tough argument in New fork. Their pitchers are not go ing as well now as they were. From St. Louis the Giants go to Chicago, and that brings us to the discussion of another team. • • • T HE Cubs are a good ball club out side of their pitchers, and Evers has one top-notch man, Cheney, who is showing signs of overwork at pres ent. Lavender and Kiehi eboth look ed like fair performers last season, but they have not been able to make any impression on the National League this spring. Perhaps it is the weather. All pitchers blame the weather when they are slow in start ing. It is an inexhaustible alibi. Lavender and Kiehie both looked very bad against the Giants when the Cubs were in New York, Lavender lacking any semblance of control. Richie, as is well known, has always been most effective when working against the New y York club. Evers’ best chance to get a winning hall club is to have Overall return to his old fojm. He showed a flash of that in a recent battle. With Overall and Cheney in good condition, then Evers could piece out the r£st of his pitching from Lavender. Richie and Reulbach experimenting with these boys until one of them touched some thing like winning form. The rest of the club is as good both at the bat and in the field as any team in the league. The catching staff is with out a peer in the country. The team is well balanced, and works smooth ly if interna] dissension can be avoided. B UT the Cubs are up against three clubs which will develop great pitching staffs before the schedule is played out, and I do not honestly fig ure how they are going to compete with this sort of high-class twirling. Philadelphia has already shown box- men who have stood all the other teams on their heads, and both New York and Pittsburg have pitchers who are bound to come find be big winners. Besides these two teams, Brooklyn has been receiving good pitching, and Boston gets occasional outbursts of effective twirling. The way the Cubs crashed down through the league when they were making their recent tour of the East indicated that they could not stand the doses of pitching being administered by the Eastern clubs. • * • M R. CHARLES W. MURPHY gave out a recent statement, declar ing that I had attacked the Cubs in these articles because he had refused to iet me insure the players on the team on whom he had taken out poli cies. That looks to me like a poor alibi, but it is not my intention to get into any controversy with Mr. Murphy, because 1 need my wind for pitching, since he spoke the truth when he said I would have to work to win my own games from this point along. T have always had to w-ork to win them. Also I know Mr. Mur phy’s endurance record for long-dis tance talking, and could not hope even to tie him. I gave what was an honest opinion of the Cubs after w'atcblng them play and lose three games out of four in New York. Evers is a friend of mine and his success so long its it did not crowd the Giants would gratify me. He is a game ball player, but he ran into a hard situation in Chicago when he took hold of the team. Mr. Mur phy had made many enemies for the Cubs by the way in which he treated some of his old stars last fall. But that is his business and not mine. T HE Phillies deserve some con sideration right here, because they are leading the league at pres ent, no matter where they finish. Dooin has a good ball club, but his main strength lies in four star pitch ers—Alexander, Rixey, Chalmers and Seaton. This quartet is moving at top speed now, but should any one of them slow up for a minute or two Dooin is going to have a difficult time when he runs into the cluster of dou ble headers that he will be forced to face. By the addition of Fromme. McGraw is well stocked with twirl- ers for these double bills later along. He has five competent performers. It is my notion that the Quakers will fall back on the road trip, al though these may be merely the ob servations of an optimist. They do not move as wgjl away from home as they do on their own diamond, as was shown by the fact that we out played the club in New York, while they trimmed us handily in Phila delphia.

Young Shugrue and Sam Robideau were matched yesterday to box ten rounds in Madison Square Garden, New York, June 5. B ROOKLYN has already started to drop back toward us, and the St. Louis club cannot hold up. Their two star pitchers, Harmon and Sallee, were both beaten last week and these two have been keeping the team in the race. * * * P ITTSBURG is still a dangerous club, and will come strong to ward the end, as it did last season. There is lots of fight in that team, but, like the Giants, the Pirates have not been able to get going. They have good pitching and good hitting, and are bound to come. It is my opinion that the battle will finally be between the Giants and Pirates. It is a long way to the finish, and both of these teams have the best staying qualities, to my mind.

June 2.— Parris Smith, an 18-year-old high school student, who was hit on the head by a baseball while playing in a match game here, died to-day in a hospital. Milo Stock, aged 23. who was struck by a pitched ball in the same game, suffered the loss of an eye and may die. B‘ OSTON, MASS., June 2.—Forget ting the early season series be tween the Boston Nationals and the New York, Brooklyn and Phila delphia teams as one would forget a nightmare, it may be said that George Stallings’ team has been going well enough lately to suit the most rabid partisan. His kid players have turned the trick. When the pitching is good, nine times out of ten, the team behind the pitching will play good ball, and it will be gingered up so that It can bat out the winning run. The batting of the Boston team has not been particularly brilliant. On the contrary, it has been below' the average, but it must be remembered most of the men played in the minor leagues last year, and It will take time for them to get accustomed to big league pitching.
