CROWD 10 GIVE
RECORD II TILT
Bv Percy H. WTiiting.
I F the weather at* fame time this
afternoon Is «rufficiently salubrious
(Noah Webster please write) we
are likely to give Birmingham some
thing more to think about in the
matter of attendance. It wouldn’t
be surprising if the mid-week record
got a Jar.
For there will certainly be some
few enthusiasts at Ponce DeLeon ball
park.
This is Grocers’ and Butchers’ Day.
The grocers, butchers and a lot of
wholesalers will close this afternoon
for the first time and are going to
celebrate in various ways, but chief
ly by going to the ball park.
The local team has gone to con
siderable expense in getting the
Montgomery club here and expects
a big crowd for the occasion.
D IGHT now. while the local crowds
are standing up close around the
high water mark and the league is
more prosperous than ever before in
its career It might be well to pro
pound the question:
"Are Southern League clubs being
run on a business basis and If they
aren't what’s going to become of
them?”
Carleton Molesworth sounded a note
of warning the other day in the fol
lowing statement:
The managers in this league are
Spending too much money for
the receipts they get. The atten
dance does not justify the dis
bursements now being made.
Three cities in the league are
drawing well and they are Mobile,
Atlanta and Birmingham. Others
are hardly paying the guarantee
except on holidays.
The next big change in the
league is bound to be a curtail
ment of expenses and it may come
quicker than we expect. I have
no kick to offer in Birmingham
because the people there certainly
support a ball club superbly.
Whether you are winning or los
ing, they attend the game. It’s
a big place and we have a great
population to draw from.
• * •
A F course here in Atlanta we
^ haven’t sprung any worry-wrin
kles nor will we for the next 50
years. The local club is well backed.
And Atlanta ip a real baseball town.
That is more than can be said of
some of The other cities in the lengue,
including at least one—Memphis—
which has size enough to turn out
any old crowd.
• • *
YEAR In and year out the average
1 Southern League clubs spend too
much for their teams. Year in and
year out the Southern League loses
money—that is, the total of profits of
all clubs is less than the total of
losses.
Either the league cities have got to
grow r mighty fast to catch up with
the salary limit or else the league
will come a cropper some day.
In the meantime, I guess we should
not lose sleep over it.
* • •
\X7ITH new pitchers coming Crack-
er prospects are looking up
again. Not in years, if ever, hap a
Southern club bought as many and
as high-priced pitchers and secured
such a weak staff Look at the slather
of them that Bill Smith had at the
first of the year and how well they
were recommended. And look at
what’s left now and what they have
been doing.
It would be extremely helpful If
this guy Counzelman turned out to
be a bear. The other man Pittsburg
sent down here, under optional agree
ment—Blsland—turned out to be a
corker Maybe /"ounzelman will do
equally well. /
While the Crackers were disap
pointed not to get the unrestricted
ownership of Counzelman’s* services it
is an encouraging sign that Barney
Dreyfuss would not sell him outright.
It was apparent that he expected the
man to make a real pitcher some day.
Otherwise he would have preferred
money to his services.
• * *
1V/1 AVRIC the blight of punk pitchers
Inflicted <>n Atlanta by the fates
was a blessing In disguise and de
signed to keep up the interest In base
ball.
Even without pitchers Bill Smith
has been able to keep his club right
up In the race. The Crackers are
In such a position that with a little
hurling help they can set sail for
the Gulls, with every chance In the
world of overtaking them.
I’m looking for a close finish this
year.
The Crackers are going to get their
stride after a bit and start winning
Their slump has to end after n bit.
They are In a good position to make
the race. Give them the pitchers and
watch them fly!

By J. W. TIeisman.
T HIS is the time of the year when
the college player gets out a
copy of the rules of the South
ern Intercollegiate Athletic Associa
tion, and reviews them all carefully.
Either he does this with the idea of
refreshing his mind regarding the
things he must not do if he wishes to
be eligible for college playing again
next spring, or to see if he cannot
work out a way to go and play where
and how r he pleases, this summer, and
yet not violate the letter of the laws.
For years the college players all
over the country have been strain
ing at the leash and trying to get
away from the hard and fast rules
that all colleges now lay down re
garding summer baseball by their stu
dents; but thus far there has been
no lengthening of the chain any
where In fact at every meeting of
the S. I. A. A. some new law Is passed
which only shortens the restraining
rope still more.
* * *
TT Is a well understood rule all over
* the country that one who takes
money for participation in any ath
letic event whatsoever above his nec
essary expenses thereby profession
alizes himself, for which reason he is
debarred from further athletic asso
ciation with amateurs, in England
they go very much further still. There
only "gentlemen” can be amateurs;
and n gentleman, in this sense, is
defined to be one who has never
worked for a living—that is, one who
has never earned money by work, no
matter what kind of work. This
strikes us as the height of absurdity,
and It Is safe to say that such a defi
nition of the amateur will never take
foothold In America.
But while young Americans in
this day and time understand full
well that it is against the rules of
amateur sport to accept money for
work of this kind, there are many
each year who do accept it. and who
still i xpect to engage er continue in
amateur sports, and In college sports
as well. Sometimes they Just bald
ly lie about It when it comes to fill
ing out blanks regarding these points.
But generally, they salve antf save
their consciences by making a sale
of an old pair of suspenders, or a
cigar, or a pocket knife to some offi
cer of the summer team with which
they are playing for the trifling sum
of $50 or $100. as the case may re
quire. Or they will sit in a little
poker game for ten minutes and have
such a run of luck (?) as will net
them, say $50.15 or $100.30. Or the
stipulated remuneration is sent by
the manner of the club to the boyk?
brother, father or friend, and so
neither ho nor any other official of
the summer team has given him a
cent; it Is the relative or friend who
has given it to him.
* * •
T HEN there is another rule, that
gives the boys even more trou
ble. This provides that after a boy
has once entered college he shall
not thereafter during the summer va
cation play upon or with any but
his "home” team; and his home team
Is defined to be one that is In, or
belongs to, the county in which that
boy has legal residence, and has had
that legal residence for at least one
year before the playing of said sum-

mer ball (not one year before play
ing college ball with his college team
the spring following his playing with
the summer team).
Well, some of the boys happen to
live In towns or counties where they
don’t have a team of any kind. That’s
a tough proposition, and formerly it
was covered by the' vice president
giving a boy permission under such
conditions to play with some other
nearby team. But of late years the
tendency has more and more been
for the vice president to refuse such
permits, and that leaves such boys
high and dry.
But in any case most every boy
gets a chance, yes, several chances,
to play with some team outside his
own county during the summer, and
generally he wants to take the
chance.
Why? Because often enough
there’s money in it. But whether
there is or not, show’ me the base
ball boy w'ho won’t miss even . his
meals to get into a game of ball most
anywhere whether in the Amazonian
jungles or on Wpitzbergen. Then
when he comes back to college and
wants to play the following spring
he has either to fib about it or au
tomatically rule himself out of college
ball for that spring by declining to’
answer every question and to sign
his blank.
Some boys go off to play with a
team not from their home countv
and change their true names for that
game. But this has also now been
covered by express and adverse leg
islation. Sometimes they strike a
compact with players from other col
leges whom they find with their OAvn
or the. opposition team, and all agree
to "keep mum” about it; and some
times these packs are kept, while
again they are not.
Of course before* a boy goes to
college at all he can play with any
team he pleases, whether it comes
from or belongs in his home coun
ty or not. This is a point not always
understood by the prep players, and
for their benefit I state it.
* * •
A NOTHER rule is that one must
never have nlayed even for so
much as a single inning with a team
that is a member of an organized
professional league; and this ap
plies to the boy who has not yet
gone to colleg(> as Well as to the one
who has already been to college a
session or two. Nor does it make
any difference that he was "only try
ing out” with the professionals and
failed to make good, or that he re
ceived no money whatever for such
P 1 a y i n g. Any PROFESSIONAL
LEAGUE playing knocks him out for
| all time and without further ado.
But it is all right to play against
| a professional team or professional
players on the same team with the
amateur, .so long as it is not a pro
fessional league. But competing
against a professional in other sports,
like foot racing, would knocw the am
ateur out.
• * *
T HE foregoing is merely an outline
of the college rules written for
the Information and benefit of those
who do not happen to be familiar
with them.
In a future article I will have mor* 3
to say regarding the ethical side of
these rules, and f hat changes, if
any, might with profit be made.
Rube Bush Wins Low Score Prize
RINGSIDE NO TES
Jhn Flynn, the Pueblo fireman, who
battles Jim Savagt at the Auditorium-
Armory here on June 13, is the most
sought after heavyweight in the game
to-day. New York wants Flynn to meet
Gunboat Smith: Boston is after the
Pueblo heavyweight to take on Frank
Moran, while MeCarey would match
Flynn against either "Willard or Smith.
Although Flynn has been before the
public for many years he is still one
of the greatest drawing cards among
the boxers of to-day. His style of fight
ing closely resembles that of Battling
Nelson He is always on top of his
opponent and gives the fans some real
milling.
When Battling Nelson coined the term
"cheese champion'’ and hung it on Wil
lie Ritchie, he said a mouthful and
one that is enduring In fact, quite a
lot of our present champions are falling
all over themselves in their effort to
grab a similar title.
Emil Thiry, manager of Packey Mc
Farland. has accepted the management
of Ernie Zanders, the Chicago welter
weight. Already Emil is busy trying to
close a match with Mike Gibbons, the
St. Paul sensation.

Leach Cross' last fight before he meets
ILL LOOKOUTS
NEED. SUS KID
C HATTANOOGA, June 4.—"Give
me three good left handers,”
said Kid Elberfeld as soon as
he had analyzed the permanent line
ups of his leading rivals, "and I'll
capture the rag.” The Kid said this
two months ago, and he says it now.
To be more exact Elberfeld needs
at present but one southpaw to have
his wish fulfilled. He has already
Summers and Coveleskie. If Kroh,
w-ho Iras just been secured from the
Turtles, lives up to expectations, the
Kid will have no alibi if he falls to
annex the 1913 gonfalon, for the three
southpaws asked will be at his dis
posal.
* * *
•THE acquisition of Kroh did not oc-
A casion any great amount of sur
prise locally as both Andrews and
Elberfeld had had their eyes on the
Turtle hurler since first he was seen
in action. The Kid believes that he
is a corking good man. Coveleskie and
Summers can’t be surpassed, and if
the latest addition does 75 per cent as
well as his brother portslders the
Kid will be eminently satisfied.
The sensational winning streaks of
Covelefckie who has won 10 and lost
3 and Summers, who has won 7 and
lost 2 seem to substantiate absolutely
the assertion of Elberfeld that the
Southern this year is a southpaw’s
league.

MONTREAL. QUEBEC. June 4.—Wal

was hit in the head by a line drive in
yesterday’s game. He was removed to a
hospital in an unconscious condition.
By W. R. Tichenor.
M ontgomery, ala., June 4.—
The twelfth annual tourna
ment of the Southern Golf
Association began here yesterday with
an entry of 180 players. Early in
the day Louis Jacoby, of Dallas, Tex
as, turned in a card of 76. Later
this was tied by Nelson Whitney, a
former champion, whose qualifying
round was the first he had ever played
over the course. For almost all day
it looked as if Whitney and Jacoby
would have to play off the tie ^for
the low qualifying score prize, but
in the afternoon, when nearly all of
the cards were in, R. G. Bush, of New
Orleans, finished his round with s
75, which was the lowest score i»-
the tournament.
R. R. Brooke had a fine chance to
beat Bush’s score when he got "out”
in 36, but he went bad on the last
four holes coming home, taking three
punts to each of the greens and fin
ished with 7.7.
Audubon Team Wins.
In the team match' the Audubon
Club, of New Orleans, was again the
winner, with a total of 310; the Dal
las Country Club was second with
317; Atlanta was third with 32S.
Seven Atlanta players qualified in
the championship division. Of this
number W. R. Tichenor led with SO
and W. H. Rowan was second with 81.
The other scores made by Atlantans
were: G. W. Adair, 83; Dowdell
Brown, 84; R. G. Blanton, 84; C. E.
Cowan, 85; H. Block, 86.
The Atlanta players who qualified
in the second division were W. Grif
fith, 89; C. V. Rainwater, 89; D. E.
Root, 88; R. P. Jones, 91; W. P. Ha
zelwood. 91. Captain E. T. Winston,
T. B. Paine, Ormond Smith, C. E.
Rose and Dr. Joe Eby failed to qual
ify.
The going in the tournament is
faster than it has ever been in any
former Southern championship. A
difference of only sixteen strokes was
shown between the first and the nine-
! ty-sixth man.
It took as good a c an 87 to get into
I the championship division, which will
contain 64 players this year. It re
quired 91 to get into the second divi
sion, which is composed of 32 players.

Savage Knocks Out
Alien in 2 Rounds
NEW YORK. June 4.—Jim Savage,
the New Jersey heavyweight, who is to
fight Jim Flynn at Atlanta on June 13,
stopped Whitey Allen, of this city, in
the second round of a bout here last
night.
Savage put up a great fight and hand
ed his opponent a severe lacing. His
cleverness completely dazzled Allen, who
was unable to lay a glove on him.
Savage also showed that he possesses
a -wallop. He used a right-hand upper
cut with veiling effect and displayed
good use of his left hand when it came
to jabbing,
After the bout Savage stated that he
expected to defeat Flynn when the two
came togeher. He is already in good
shape.

Pitcher=President Hands
Himself Own Release
G RAND RAPIDS. MICH., June
4.—To hand your own release
to yourself Is an unusual oc
currence. Yet this is what took
place here when Pitcher William
E. Esslck was released by the
Grand Rapid9 Central League
club. He was the onl£ member of
the pitching staff not yet In con
dition, and as it was necessary to
reduce the number of players to
conform with the league limit, Es
slck was the victim.
The release was drawn up by
President William E. Esslck, of
the Grand Rapids club, with all
the customary details. President
Essick then placed himself before
a mirror and made a speech in
which he expressed his regret that
the league rules made it necessa
ry for him to release his favorite
pitcher.
The document was tendered by
the president's right hand and ac
cepted by his left. Thus President
Essick released himself as a pitch
er of the team of which he is pres
ident and majority stockholder.
Essick is a warm weather pitch
er and says he probably will sign
himself again in midseason.

Be Wise! Make YourOwn ice Cream
Of course, you know that home-made ice creams, sherbets or ices are
superior from every viewpoint. They are always sweet, pure and
wholesome; there is a flavor and genuine goodness about them that is
not found in the general run cf factory products. Besides that, when
you make your own preparations you know that the ingredients are
always pure, and that the can clean and sanitary. The main reason
why icecream is made in but comparatively few homes, is the work and
bother connected with the old-
fashioned crank freezer. That
