Five Games in Three Days at
Home, Then the Final
Road Trip.
Rv 0. B. Keeler.
SO,‘THERE YOU ARE!
Oh, something's got into the eyes of
the Crackers,
A-smoking the lamps of our sterling
pill-whackers ;
Long, agonized shrieks emanate from
their hackers
Far away in the distance acview-
ing it;
can't get a line on their recent
futility;
lie know they are swatters of sten
ting ability.
Who pepper the pill with excessive
virility—
nutthchelofltistheyain'tdoingit!
D
SSPITE the charitable interfer
ence of the weather man on a
number of occasions, our brave
la-a-ads (tremolo stop) continue to
skid recklessly toward the second di
vision. Only the Barons remain be
twixt them and the lid, which position
is thinly occupied by the dejected
Lookouts.
It would be entirely possible, de
pending: on what happens to Birming
ham and Chattanooga, for the Crack
ers to detrain in this town Thursday,
installed as leaders of the basement
quartet.
Of course, the Gulls and their do
ings cut the deepest Into the calcu
lations. They have been tough for
the Crackers all season, and, with the
race in its present scrambled condi
tion, there is no reason to suspect
they will suddenly become docile.
Passing over the Gulls with a re
spectful nod, then, It may be Just as
well to look over the remaining pros
pects of the season.
• * •
N O matter in what shape the Smith -
men return Thursday, they will
confront the proposition of taking on
the Volunteers for live games in three
days, the same being Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday.
The situation of the Vols in the
league standing is not dignified
enough to inspire much reverence.
But it must be recalled that Schwartz
has some raw material on hand which
he naturally will be eager to shoot.
And some of it may be loaded.
Then there is the question of two-
ply entertainments.
, In the face of what happened re
cently in Montgomery, we insist that
the conventional method of prorating
a double bill is for each side to take
one. And that is precisely what the
Crackers do not require just now—
and won’t require the latter part of
this week.
Five or six games back of the lend.
Bill Smith’s hands need two out of
. three from now on—and a shade more
wouldn’t hurt.
one double-header lr regulnriy
scheduled for Friday afternoon. The
league program Is responsible for
that. Then there is a tie contest
holding over from the last visit of the
Vols. That probably will be shot off
Thursday, by way of openers.
Anyway, if the sky can be caulked,
there’s a furious little series booked
for the last three days in this week.
...
T HEN the Crackers hit the "Trail
of the Lonesome Nine" once
more.
Chattanooga first, for three games,
August 4, 5 and 6. Then the final vis
it to Nashville, which may witness
the playing off of the well known dis
puted contest earlier in the season.
The closing road games of the season
of 1913 will be played In Birmingham,
August 11, 12 and 13.
...
H OME again, for a little house par
ty at which every club in th£
league will be on the guest list ex
cept Nashville.
There are 22 games scheduled for
the grand finale, and four tied or
postponed affairs. They will be
played in this order: Chattanooga 4;
Birmingham 3; New Orleans 6: Mo
bile 4; and Chattanooga again for
one game. September 6.
But in the meantime, there is Mo
bile.
...
AND it is possible that Billy Smith
■is was figuring on that long home
wind-up, with the chance to land the
'flag in a grueling finish, when he
• signed the giant southpaw, Love,
leading slabman of the Cotton States
League.
Love will make the third fork-
hander on the Cracker firing line.
With an equal number of right-hand
ers, Billy can settle down on the
home lot and dare all of ’em to knock
off the chip. It won’t make much
difference whether the opposition
■< eports a majority of portalders i.r
not. Bill will be loaded for both
kinds of game.
• • •
T HE new cock-eye is six and a half
feet long and comes up with a
savory reputation that includes 20
firsts out of 29 starts in the Cotton
States. He has a no-hit, no-run
game on his list, and four consecu
tive shut-outs, in the directing of
which he issued only three bases on
balls. Control is said to be his best
bet.
That sounds encouraging, anyway.
POOR ABIE IS THROUGH;
HAS LITTLE CLASS LEFT
NEW YORK, July 28,—Able Attell
had better give up the Queensberry pas
time. Abe has something left in the
ducking and the nodding of the head in
getting away from some wicked punches,
but that Is about all.
His latest opponent was Willie Beech
er the well-known mitt man of the
East Side, and the contest took place
at the Atlantic Athletic Club of Rock-
away There was a rather good gather
ing of the. tight fans. They were of the
opinion that Abe would hand out some
of that old championship stuff that
made him famous in the day's of long
R ,r 0 The person who suffered the most
a” the bout was Referee Draycott.
Abe’s Judgment of distance was bad in
the fifth, sixth and eighth rounds, and
he whanged the Judge three times.
The winner of the bout was Beecher.
The latter, after finding out that At
tell was not there any more, chased
Abe around the ring, and Beecher had a
difficult time in catching his opponent.
Beecher did his best work In the sixth
and seventh rounds. From the fifth
round to the finish. Beecher was the
busy man and he had enough lead In
the first five to give him the fight.
All that Abe had was a bad lip as he
came out of the ring.

GREAT HELP TO
JOE BOEOLING
By Senator.
W ASHINGTON, July 28.—Quiet,
observing: everything, but
saying little, always ready
with a cheering word for some young
ster to turn a rebuke into a Joke. Jack
Ryan, the veteran backstop and scout,
is one of the uplifting influences
among the Washington Senators. He
Isn’t going around with banners fly
ing, proclaiming his deeds from every
housetop, but he is the man who has
made it possible for Joe Boehling to
pitch winning ball.
After much haggling to no end, the
writer succeeded in getting Ryan to
explain the system he has taught
Boehling and is now teaching Joe
Engel. He belittled even tha.t sys
tem. notwithstanding Boehling’s suc
cess since he began following the
veteran’s advice.
“It's a simple thing,” finally broke
out Ryan. ‘I began teaching those
two kids this spring at Charlottes
ville. They were wild as hawks and
careless of following directions. I
noticed that all they ever did when
they went into the box was to wind
up and let her go. They didn’t take 5
even enough time to see where the
plate was.
* • •
HCO I said to Boehling one day:
^ ‘Take your time. Think about
every ball you pitch. Try to do some
thing with it. Aim at something.
Pay the closest attention to your
stride. Then you will get control, and
that’s all you need to ge a good pitch
er.’
,r Well. at first Boehling couldn’t un
derstand these directions. He would
forget what he had to do. Griff kept
me working with him constantly
however, and finally I got Joe whet*
he could think of all these things at
the same time. Immediately he be
gan to pitch winning ball, and he
will continue Just so long as he fol
lows those directions.
"It was the same way with Engel.
He is fully equipped to be a win
ning pitcher. .1 never saw a better-
looking youngster in baseball. But
he didn’t know' anything about his
lob. He never considered what he
had to do. He pitched into the stride
used by the other pitcher, even if it
w r ere two feet short of his own. It
was impossible for him to win that
way. * He couldn’t get hjs Muff’ on
the ball. I kept insisting on his using
proper stride and thinking about
every ball that left his hand. That’s
all pitching amounts to, granting that
you have speed and a curve ball. But
it Was hard for those kids to under
stand this, and it took a lot of time
before they got it into their heads. *
And this is all that Jack Ryan ha?
to say about his making two good
pitchers for the Climbers.
• * *
\17HEN you think it over, Ryan
vv ought to be a wise counselor
for young fellow’s. He has been in
baseball 28 years, starting when* a
mere kid. In all that time he has
never learned to drink or smoke. His
personal habits are Irreproachable, his
example for young players a thing for
the gods. Manager Griffith could not
have ogtained a Letter coach for his
youngsters. Seldom does he use a
harsh word, never a profane. Never
doe* he criticise a player on any
other team.
Ryan’s la*?t active service was as
manager of the-Jers^y City club of the
Eastern, now the Internationa l
Eeague. There he worked behind
the bat regularly, always maintain
ing a high average. He broke in with
the Baltimore team when it was com
posed of thugs and knockout men. Al
ways quiet, he had to fight to remain
with the Orioles. And he fought and
stayed. Later he saw several years
of service under Frank Pelee on the
Boston club. He was captain of the
Detroit American League team in
1902. finally drifting to the mjnorp,
where he managed several teams,
ending with Jersey City,
Tt jw OBILE, ALA., July 28.—Whitey
1V1 Alperman, field captain and
second baseman of the Crack
ers, was operated on this noon in a
local hospital for appendicitis.
As a result of the operation, Alper
man will not be able to play again
this season. This is a severe blow to
Manager Billy Smith, as it practical
ly kills whatever chance the Atlanta
team has of w inning the pennant.
. Alperman was out of the game yes
terday. He complained of severe pains
in his right side. Last night a local
physician wafc called, but was unable
to diagnose the case until this morn
ing.

YACHTING DE LUXE.
Oh, would I were a sailor
Upon the rolling seas,
And beat it hence from spot to spot
Upon my large and gilded yacht,
Nor cared for any breeze.
Oh. would I were a sailor
Upon the billows blest,
And l could say: “Come hither,
Steve!
I have a thirst thou shouldst re
trieve”
And h>3 would do the rest.
Oh, would I were a sailor
And owned a yacht of steam.
But one must be a pirate bold
And trim the landsman of his poll
To realize that dream.
Every time a fight manager offers to
bet $10,000 one is lad to wonder whether
Confederate money still is being used.
A doctor having discovered that no
bones are broken in Heinie Zlm’s ankle,
the inference is that his ankle bones are
made of the seme substance as his head.
An X-Ray examination of the Great
Zim reveals the fact that his tempera
ment is suffering from a malignant at
tack of gout.
When one learns that Hal Chase has
made five boots In one game, one will
not be surprised to hear that Joe Dunn
has swiped ’five bases In the same In
terval.
The latest scandal In the Sport of
Kings in England merely reflects the
spirit of the times. A king these days Is
looked upon generally as a nine-spot.
It is claimed in England that the prev
alence of foul riding there is due to the
American style of wearing short stir
rups. Even our English brethren have
learned to pa-ss the buck.
Bill Peet, a Washington scout, says
he discovered Joe Boehling. and seven
American League teams have discovered
that Bill Peet Is some discoverer.
Suggestion to Milwaukee sporting
editors: Why not organize a few boxing
clubs?
It still Is early to pass Judgment on
Laverne Chappelle. but up to date he
has earned approximately $1.75 of his
purchase price.
Members of Frank Chance’s team
wear black sweaters, but even that does
not fill the bill. What they need is crepe.
On the theory that misery loves com
pany, Boston and St. Louis baseball
bugs may organise a Mutual Sympathy
Society.

How Fogel Will Wreck Majors GULLS DRAW
^•*r •*!* v#*f* __ __
Dryden Makes Big “Discovery”
Charles Dryden.
H onorable Horace foghl
is getting ready to absorb bo*h
big circuits and put the mag
nates on the bum. He has said it,
and what Horace says goes. As the
present major leagues are a joke.
Horace will start a lieutenant-colonel
league for a change, grabbing off all
the star talent now employed grinding
out the national pastime.
The new organization should be ac
complished without much trouble.
Mr. Fogel talked himself out of the
old league, and he' is now engaged
asking himself into the new one. or
lieutenant-colonel league, to dis
tinguish it from the old majors.
Horace has his towns for the circuit
booke4 out already yet once. They
are New York. Philadelphia, Balti
more, Pittsburg. Cleveland, Chicago
and St. Louis. That makes seven, and
they need one more. The eighth city
will be either Boston. Indianapolis or
Kansas City. If Horace Included both
Boston and Kansas City, look what a
fine jump the athletes would have
from Boston to play a Sunday game
at Kansas City.
Backers of New League Named.
The financial backers of the lieu
tenant-colonel league ere said to be
Otto Steifel, of St. Louis, and Jeff
Livingston, the well-known pickle ex
pert of Cincinnati. Mr. Stelfe! is be
hind the Federal League at St. Louis,
and Mr. Livingston is in the pickle
and tomato ketchup line at Clncy.
They are to furnish the money, and
Horace will supply the words. It is
claimed that Horace has landed all
the stars worth having in the two
major circuits, but the statement is
discredited, because Tom Needham
has not been signed by the lieutenant-
colonels. We are Inclined to believe
that if there were anything in the
new organization, Mr. Needham would
not have been overlooked. If Toni
is not a star, where could they find
one?
Be that as It may. the lieutenant-
colonel league will be in full opera
tion next spring, and the magnate.-
of the two so-called major leagues
will he begging for peanut concessions
and hot dog stands in the parks* of
the new baseball body. They made
a goat of Horace, and now he is get
ting hack at them.
His Investigation Sidetracked.
His investigation of the trust was
sidetracked, and just for that the Na
tional and American must get out of
business for all time. By next Fourth
of July we will hear of Pittsburg, New
Yor# and Cleveland selling their new’
steel stands for old iron. It is an aw
ful picture to contemplate, but the
magnates showed Horace no mercy,
and he is determined not to spare
them in the hour • of retribution
Otherwise Horace is a mighty good
fellow’.
P. S.—Mr Fogel has prepared an
advance statement of 8.000 words In
reference to the new league, which
statement wms to have been released
simultaneously with a lot of papers
on July 7.
Double P. S.—We do not know wh r
the statement was not released on
July 7.

Will Introduce Game August 6
By -Toe Agler.
M OMILE. ALA., July 28.—The
Gulls, ably assisted by a per
son named Monk, who was
not in uniform, managed to cop the
Jump game of this series yesterday in
spite of a grand exhibition of pitching
by Dent and plucky defensive play by
a badly crippled Cracker team.
Thompson and Dunn will be the bat
tery to-day, and we are going to try
to get even.
Dent pitched one of his best gam?n
since Joining the Crackers, and de
served to win. But the attack of nis
mates was not sufficient to overcome
a one-run ledd, and Hogg, who also
pitched excellent ball, finished In
front, 2 to 1, the result setting the
Crackers down another full game in
the pennant chaee, as Montgomery
also won.
Bill Bailey was examined by an
X-ray specialist here and it was
shown that he Is suffering from a
fractured rib, which will keep him
out of the line-up several- days.
Whitey Alperman was taken sudden
ly ill with what appeared to be a
touch of appendicitis, and was unable
to play yesterday, but probably will
try to work in this afternoon’s game.
The worst feature of the contest
yesterday wag the arrest of Joe Dunn,
at the instance of a person named
Monk, who is interested in the Mobile
club, the way I understand the mat
ter. Joe was charged with swearing
while arguing with Umpire Wright
about a hit Joe thought was foul.
Wright says Joe didn’t swear, Catch
er Schmidt Says the same thing end
so do all the players who were in
hearing of the argument. But Jo-3
was lugged off the field and Chapman
had to come in from right to take his
place, while Gilbert Price went to the
outer works.
Joe wasn’t locked up. Friends
promptly arranged for bond, and ne
will be back in the game thin after
noon.
T IE most rabid pololst * appetite
will be aatiafled at Fort McPher
son on Wednesday afternoon,
August 6.
Here are some of the events carded
by those interested In the plan to
form the Atlanta Polo Club:
Polo match between the Fort
McPherson quartet and an All-
Southern team, which will consist
of Tom Weaver, Lamar Hill, Dr.
J. O. Seamans, local players, and
expert** from surrounding South
ern clubs.
A tug-of-war on polo ponies.
A polo pony race.
A "polo pony” musical pro
gram furnished by the Fort Mc
Pherson military band.
A “polo pony” concert by Com
pany M Glee Club.
And In hope of encouraging those
who will be unable to attend to be
come interested in the game, mov
ing picture* will be taken of the
struggle and thrown on local screens
a day or two after the match.
It will be the biggest society event
ever held in Atlanta. It Is to be
hoped that the game will "take
strong.” for if it does, the Atlanta
Polo Club will surely be formed,
A big tract of land will be pur
chased and a clubhouse erected.
There are enough Atlantans who
play the game to form an excellent
team with very little coaching. With
in p. very few rrfbnths the local club
could arrange games w ith teams from
all parts of the country, and not be
afraid of defeat.
A worthy aim would be to develop
players for the International Cup
team. New Yorkers have had this all
to themselves for some time, but At
lanta. like Camden, Augusta and
Jacksonville, could In time probably
develop some “big leaguers.”
