Mrs. Rummy Takes in the Ball Game
By Joe A trier.
N ’ASHV'lI.LE, TENN, June 3.—
We "win" an ea*y game at
last. We've played 43 hard
games this season, winning two
dozen and losing 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 groundkeeper. 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 iiattery. Price
pitched the customary three strikes.
Umpire Dunn declared the game for
feited to us and we went back 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 Kav&naugh, and he will doubt
less decide it right away.
Manager Smith bases his conten
tion that the Vols should play us
to-dav on the following letter he re
ceived in Atlanta from President
Hirstg:
May 2«, 1913
Mr. William Smith, Manager At
lanta Bill Chib, 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 X, 2 and 3,
but 1 think really it would bo
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 ean easily arrange
this after you arrive here. Yours
truly.
WILLIAM HIRSIO, lhveident.
As soon as Billy saw that there was
going to be a kick be wired all par
ticulars to President Kavanaugh and
received from him this telegram:
Little Book, 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
changes In schedule were made, it
was done without notice to this
office. However, had 1 been con
sulted, I would have consented to
any changes which the two
clubs had agreed to. Show this
to umpires and Hlrslg. and say
to them that games must be
plaved according to agreement,
between you and them, whatever
it was
WILLIAM K. KAVANAUGH.
That's Jhe 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

I T is an r>dd fart that folks who
would not willingly monkey with
a buzz saw or wittingly Juggle
cans of nitro-glyoerine while they
were standing still will blithely flirt
with death at high speed and seem
to enjoy It. v
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 workl. 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 be
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-
tier. with no place to put his feet
and no place to put his hands, save
on the shoulders of Swartz. Hut in
the past they took the track at a
moderate speed. Monday, however,
they went out in a race with Harry
Olfcnn 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 find that the rear tire
of the machine had Just sustained a
puncture and that another circle of
the track would undoubtedly have
cant u nasty accident and perhaps
fatality. Mrs. Swartz, the bride
’ less than a month, had played one
of her life-saving presentments and
had stopped her husband Just in
ime to save him a bad tumble.
Eater in the afternoon Richards,
•jock" McNeil and Harry Glenn,
riding road machines, engaged in a
►ination endurance run-steeple
chase-go-as-you-please 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 must 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 Maohine Coming.
Word was received Monday about
the missing Excelsior racing machine,
and it should be at the track this
afternoon. This is Harry Swartz’s
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
corking on their machines.
Renel the famous Frenchman, has
tablished himself as though he in-
nded to stay all summer, with every
ol neatly placed in its own especial
u k on the wall and with the interior
f his shed fixed up as neatly as a
rgeon's instrument case.
The ticket sale progressed well
i-sterday. Manager Prince has ar-
,nged tickets with a rain check at-
ached so that anybody buying a
ticket will be sure to get an admis-
ion Friday night or some other night
for his money.

game at Ponce DeLeon Park Wed
nesday afternoon.
The Montgomery club accepted the
offer of the Crackers to come to At
lanta for the game that day and will
be here in good order Wednesday
morning. The Crackers will blow At
lanta after Tuesday’s game and will
take a chance that they will not be
called to account for the game origi
nally scheduled for Nashville on Wed
nesday. There is the off possibility
that the game may be forfeited
against them, but the local club is
going to risk it, in order to put on the
special feature for the grocers and
butchers to celebrate their first Wed
nesday afternoon off.
EMORY' COLLEGE, OXFORD, GA.,
June 3.—Key Perryman, the elongated
preacher-pitcher of Emory College, who
was placed upon the ineligible list by the
National Commission, for failing to re
port to Manager McGraw, of the New
York Giants, has been reinstated and
farmed to Roanoke, of the Virginia
League.
Perryman received a telegTam this
morning from the Roanoke manager urg
ing him to report as soon as Emory
closed and instructing him to get thor
ough work-outs every day. Roanoke is
leading the Virginia League, and as Per
ryman has been the sensation of this
league for the past two years, he will
no doubt have a banner season.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND., June 3.—
Jimmy Clabby, the Hammond. Ind.,
middleweight boxer, and Jack Dillon,
of Indianapolis, have signed to fight
here July 4. The fight, which Is sched
uled for ten rounds, probably will be
held at the American Association
baseball park.

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 fnore 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 yesterday. It was estimated
that about 175 players circled the
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 the
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.
