Hjp. I.M. .iii.fa.~Si I THE ATLjVNTA GEORGIAN AN7> NEWS. 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! — — Silk Hat Harry’s Divorce Suit • • • • Copyright, 1911.

Newnan at LaGrange. Gadsden at Opelika. Anniston at Talladega. 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- Standina W.

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. * ♦ * Young Shrugrue and Sam Robideau will don the gloves Ur u scheduled. 10 round battle in Madison Square Garden, New York.

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. © O O' ©> Atlantans Star in Golf Tourney TUESDAY’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.

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. White City Park Now Open Just pack it —that’s all! The freezer will do the rest.
