THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, By Joe Afrler. N ashville, tenn., June We "win*’ an easy game at last. We've played 48 hard jrame* this season, winning: two dozen and lowing two dozen. And we’ve had to wrestle with every one of them. Yesterday we took one when there wasn't even any team there to offer resistance. I think we'll make It stick, too. The VoLs didn’t even show up at the park, and we had to get In by joshing the groundkoeper. We put on our uniforms and lined up at 4 o’clock. Manager Smith named Joe Dunn umpire and Price and Chap man furnished the battery. Price pitched the customary three strikes, Umpire Dunn declared the game for feited to us and we went hack to the hotel. It was pretty soft I don't know how the row will end, but it will be put right up to Presi dent Kavanaugh, and he will doubt less decide it right away. Manager Smith bases his conten tion that the Vols should play us to-day on the following letter he re ceived in Atlanta from President Hirsig: May 26, 1913 Mr. William Smith, Manager At lanta Pall Club, Atlanta: Dear Sir—Received your letter in reference to your playing here next Sunday, and beg advise that we are making arrangements ac cordingly. We will have our schedule ready June 1, 2 and 3, but 1 think really it would be best to play on 3d and 4th. How ever, it might rain on one of these days. We will have all of the week and can easily arrange this after you arrive here. Yours truly, WILLIAM HIRSIG, President. As soon as Billy saw that there was going to be a kick he wired all par ticulars to President Kavanaugh and received from him this telegram: Little Rock, June 1, 1913. William Smith. Manager Atlanta Baseball Club, Duncan Hotel, Nashville. Tenn.: Original schedule calls for games June 2. 3 and 4. If .any change-s in schedule were made, it was done without notice to this office. However, had I been con sulted, 1 would have consented to any changes which the two clubs had agreed to. Show this to umpires and Hirsig, and say to them that games must be played according to agreement, between you and them, whatevor it was. WILLIAM K. KAVANAUGH. That’s the way it stands now. In my personal opinion. there isn’t a chance now for the club to lose the protest. ‘King’’ Brady will work to-day, with Chapman catching. Bill Schwartz will send Beck against us, with Gibson catching. It ought to be a great battle. We leave to-night and expect to play a postponed game with Mont gomery in Atlanta Wednesday after noon. ELBERFELD NOW HAS LEFT-HANDERS ON STAFF CHATTANOOGA, TENN., June 3.— Manager Llberfeld has purchased Pitch er Kroh from the Memphis club. Hunt, secured from Victoria, was re turned.

I T is an odd fact that folks who would not willingly monkey with a buzz saw or wittingly Juggle cans of nitro-glycerine while they were standing still will blithely flirt with death at high speed and seem to enjoy it. The riders gathered for the open ing of Jack Prince’s Motordrome Fri day night must necessarily graze death every time they practice or race. Theirs is one of the most dan gerous callings in the world. A man would naturally suppose that they would not risk their necks unless they were called on to do it. Yet they do. Yesterday afternoon Wilmer Rich ard. known to the neck-breaking pro fession as “Tex,” and Harry Swartz— "Mile-High Harry” of Denver gave an exhibition of riding double that for sheer foolhardiness could not he equalled outside the ranks of aero plane artists. And they did it "just for fun.’’ Rode Double at High Speed. Several times in the past they have ridden “double,” with Swartz in the saddle and Richards dangling off be hind. seated on a flimsy luggage car rier, with no place to put his feet and no place to put his hands, save on the shoulders of Swartz. But in the past they took the track at a moderate speed. Monday, however, thev went out in a race with Harry Glenn and for mile after mile they raced at the full speed of the ma chine—which must have been a good bit better than 70 miles an hour— riding all the way on the 58-degree part of the track, with the machine and their bodies at right angles to the tilted track and practically par allel with the ground. Slipped—Just in Time. Finally Mrs. Swartz waived her husband down and he obediently stopped to And that the rear tire of the machine had just sustained a puncture and that another circle of the track would undoubtedly have meant a nasty accident and perhaps a fatality. Mrs. Swartz, the bride of less than a month, had played one of her life-staving presentments and had stopped her husband just in time to save him a bad tumble. Later in the afternoon Richards, “Jock” McNeil and Harry Glenn, riding road machines, engaged in a combination endurance run-steeple- chase-go-as-you-pleaso race, in which McNeil had the advantage in speed, but Glenn in endurance. The At lanta rider circled the track until it was almost totally dark and then stopped only because he was ordered off. He Vnust have ridden consider ably over a hundred miles during the afternoon—which seems like a good bit of riding under ordinary circum stances, but which is not so much when you go safely at a speed of 70 miles an hour. Excelsior (Machine Coming. Word was received Monday about the missing Excelsior racing machine, and it should be at the track this afternoon. This is Harry Swartzs machine and he is anxious to get it in time to have it perfectly tuned by Friday night. Marty Graves and Georges Renel, whose machines reached the track Saturday afternoon, spent Monday in getting their sheds in order and in working on their machines. Renel the famous Frenchman, hns stablisned himself as though he in- nded to stay all summer, with every ool neatly placed in its own especial ack on the wall and with the interior >f his shed fixed up as neatly as a urgeon’s instrument case. The ticket sale progressed well vesterday. Manager Prince has ar ranged tickets with a rain check at tached so that anybody buying a ticket will be sure to get an admis sion Friday night or some other night for his money. W. L.

M ontgomery, ala., June 3.— A field of enormous propor tions got away this morning in the twelfth annual tournament of the Southern Golf Association. So large is the field that it will take steady work all the day to get them qualified. Early indications were that more players would tee off to-day than ever faced the starter before in a S. G. A. event. A big field put in a final day of practice yesteTday. It was estimated that about 175 players circled th© course once or twice. Strange to relate, no exceptionally good scores were recorded, despite the fact that the course was fast and Jack Edrington. of Memphis, cham pion of 1910, who is regarded as a dangerous contender this year for th© honors held by W. P. Stewart, of New Orleans, turned in an 82 for his only round of the day. Match play will start to-morrow and will continue all the week. The field for this event seems a pe culiarly representative one. Several Texas golfers are on hand, as well as representatives from one or more clubs from every State represented in the S. G. A. territory. White City Park Now Open OLYMPIC HERO IN GREAT FEAT.
