THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TRY TO STOP By Joe Agler. M obile, ala., July 29.—The Gulls seemed to have such a liking for right-hand dealing that Manager Smith decided last night to flip from the other side of the deck, so he turned up George Clarke, who will work this afternoon. Dunn will catch the game out, pro vided he can control his conversation. The jinx still pursues us. Whitey Alperman's operation for appendicitis yesterday was said to have been just in time, and, at that, Whitey had about as close a call as possible. We hear he is resting well to-day, and that the chances are in his favor. But. of course, he won’t be able to play ball any more this season. The Crackers held a little meeting ^ yesterday and Billy Smith appointed Wally Smith to be field captain in Whitey's place. Wally also will play second base, and Frank Manush will go to third. Bill Bailey’s , injury leaves an outfield Job vacant, and Smith is going to try out a recruit from Selma in the Cotton States League; a big chap named Holz, who came along with Pitcher Love. Holz pegs right handed and hits 'from the p».rt side of the platter. He is said to be a good batter and a fast fielder, and we are hoping he will help to brace our crippled line up. There isn’t much to say about the game yesterday. The Gulls got to Thompson for a big lead, and then we got to Pug Cavet and made it all square, only to lose out, 6 to 5, in the ninth inning. We did manage to deliver a kick or two, which is en couraging. Maybe we will win a ball game by one run some day. the way we have been losing therfi all lately. .

O NE gleam penetrates the Stygian gloom of the situation. The Crackers* finally deliver ed a kick. It may have been a dying kick. But a kick’s a kick, for a’ that. With a shot-to-pieces line-up, with Alperman in the hospital minus an appendix. Bill Bailey carrying a cou ple of ribs in a sling. Wally Smith at second base, Manush at third and Chapman playing right field without his mitt, the disheveled Smithies col lected themselves yesterday afternoon and landed a solid punch on the rev ered Pug Cavet. The trouble was that the Gulls kick ed Thompson first—and last. And now the Town Boys are crouching on the rim of Lower Four, wondering how soon the porter will turn out the lights. * * * LITERARY TIP FROM WHITEY. Believe we, bops, this is no nonsense: When none tummy again and again kicks. Don't foot irith the Tabic of Con tents— Look it up in the blamed old Ap pendix! • • • T OUGH luck for Whitey Al- permann. And tough luck for the Crackers. Whitey’s wise old noodle and time- I ly bat are bound to be sadly missed j in the final drive. Not that Wally Smith isn’t a good, heady player and a man who, as field captain, will keep I his mates well on their toes. Wally is all of that. But the combination, of necessity, will be unsettled for a bit. Bill Bai ley also is out of the game and a Cotton States rookie. Holz. will ap pear in right field this afternoon. Manush will play third and Wally Smith second. On the other hand, the shakeup may shift the breaks, which cer tainly haven’t been coming our way lately. Anyway, we’re in for it. And in stead of blubbering over the latest handicap for the Crackers, let’s just cheer up over the report that good old Whitey, in a tough sprint against the Old Boy with the Sickle, is pull ing ahead to-da* * * * T URNING the burglar-finder on the little club that has supplanted the Town Boys at the dizzy elevation of third nlace. we discern without much difficulty that odd equine anomaly, the Dark Horee. Gladys Molesworth is up. and how d. h. can run at all is by us. Gladys’ managerial worries seem to sit lightly on his embonpoint. The real point, however, is that the Barons* have bludgeoned their way upward from seventh place since June S. That achievement was largely at the expense of Montgomery. Mobile. New Orleans and Memphis. The lat ter pair are thrown in merely a? lagniappe. because anv club that can trim the Billikens and the Gulls this year would find a pleasant relaxation plaving the rest of the bunch. * * * r I?E Baronial collection is one that might be expected to speed up toward the vhank of the season. No fewer than eleven of Molesworth’s hands have worn the spangles of the big show at one time or another. Of these. Foxen, Mayer, Moley, McDonald and Kniselev moved for very re spectable periods in select company. And with the advent of the real hot ness In weather circles, and the time of year when the old strain begins to turn the edge of the younger genera tion’s dash and daring, the old boys are rounding to. We decline to count Gladys out yet. * * * S WITCHING to politics, it seems Colonel Robert Lee Hedges— sometimes known as the Sick Man of Baseball because he is unfortunate enough to be responsible for the St. Louis Browns—it seems Ccfionel Hedges is hedging. The report persists that the Colonel is going to finance the Montgomery club of the Southern League. He is even accused of intending to buy the Billikens’ franchise outright. That is carrying things rather far. But the Billies need help, and Col onel Hedges cap afford it. in spite of the Browns. On the whole, intimate diplomatic relations between Montgomery and the Browns mightn’t be a bad idea at all. If the Browns continue to evince a disposition to travel farther south than eighth place in the American League, Colonel Hedges might swap them for the Billikens. • • • MOW some statistician is trying to ^ show that because New York bugs persist in packing the Polo Grounds* to see the Giants clean up on the pop-eyed Cardinals, St. Louis is enabled by the cut in the "gate” to stick in the league with a club that is totally unable to give any pangs of joy to the wretched fans on the home lot. It* is said the Cardinals carried away $3 2,500 as their share of a re cent series at the Polo Ground." McGraw should worry. BASEBALL SUMMARY Results of Every Game of Im portance Played Yesterday.

TENN., July 29 Fans in this burg just at pres ent are considerably worried over the possibility of Gabby Street not being with the Lookouts next season. The apparent removal of the Lookouts from the ranks of the 1913 pennant contenders has centered practically all local baseball interest on the prospects for the 1914 season. Just at present there is no deal closed for Gabby's services for next season, nor are there any which are on the verge of consummation This is encouraging in a way. and would remove to a great extent all qualms of the local fanatics*, were It not for the fact that Gabby has stated re peatedly that he will not play an other season for the sum of $300 per. The present season has been an ex. perimental on6 for the star receiver of the league, as he agreed to the stipend which he is receiving solely for the purpose of settling in his own mind the question of whether or not he was passed, so far as big league baseball is concerned. Gabby’s answer to the question is that he is not through with the big ring: that is, if ability can secure him a berth; and. as a result, he is practically decided to appear in the big rhow next season or not at all. The one cause of Street’s drop from the majors was the rheumatism in his system, and during the last few weeks he was with Washington he was forced to go to Nova Scotia for treatment. The malady stiffened his Joints to a great degree One year in the Southern, however, beneath the direct and beneficial rays of the 5*un, has completely routed Street’s arch enemy, and to-day he is as capable a receiver as ever he was in his career. Realizing this. Gabby is practically decided that It is the majors or nothing for him. A per manent minor league berth does not appear attractive to Charles where the maximum stipend is but $300 a month. MONDAY’S GAME. Atlanta. ab. r. h. po. a. e. Monday’s Results.

Colonel Hedges, who perpetrates the Browns on an Innocent public, avers that he has three of the greatest southpaws In captivity. All the Colonel needs now is a baseball team. We have given up all hope that Ad Wolgast will come back. Jones has quit him. and Tom never gave up a meal ticket until the meals were all punched.

That is. he will enter the ring In Los Angeles. Even his bitterest enemies never would accuse him of fighting.

Sold by all druggists. By Rube Marquard. S T. LOUIS, July 29.—As I write these lines a feeling of exulta tion is upon me. 1 feel like shouting for very joy. I know deep down in my heart that the Giants are assured a third straight pen nant. and 1 am not so well fortified financially that the spoils of a world’s series fail to Interest me. I realize that the fight is not yet won. New York has a very advan tageous lead, and should increase rather than lose this fine advantage as the season progresses. Yet then* is nothing so uncertain as baseball, and until the title is won beyond pos sibility of refutation, I shall'stand al ways ready to pitch my arm off. fig uratively. for McGraw and our cause. Personally, I am imbued with a de sire to win as many games as pos sible while the enemy presents some form of rebuttal to our challenge. I think I reflect the sentiments of my teammates when 1 sav that I would welcome even stiffer opposition than our club has encountered within the past six weeks. Victories easily earned are not of a nature to develop the very best form for the classic struggle in Oc tober. And it is to the world’s series, rather than a league championship, that McGraw and my fellows are bending every energy. Some people may try to tell you that there is no sentiment in profes sional sport. I do not believe that this applies to baseball, at any rate. We all like to do well in our chosen profession. Rut I am certain as can he that the great majority of the Giants think more of the opportunity for a world’s championship pennant than of the money entailed in the struggle for such. Third Try at Title. We Just naturally feel that we owe it to McGraw and to our most en thusiastic supporters. The past two years we have been disappointments even to ourselves. And the prospect of a third trial this fall has been one of the chief spurs to our ambition from the start of the season. My club Is so determined to annex the greatest honors* of baseball this fall that the boys will be scarcely able to hold up their heads for shame If we are disappointed the third straight time. And. believe me. there is some consolation, in dollars and cents, for the losing end. It might sound like braggadocio were I at this time to make any j predictions as to the outcome of the world’s 5*eries. especially as the Giants have not yet cinched their claim to the National League title Yet I believe I may be pardoned a guess as to the ultimate winner in our set. For six weeks we have set as rapid a pace as any major league club has shown within the past decade. And we have done this without the ac customed deadly hitting of our gal lant captain. Larry Doyle. It strikes me at* only a question of time be fore our sterling second baseman will come out of his slump, and then the team, should be possessed of such ad ditional power as to guarantee against any eleventh hour slip-up. Have Score W»th Athletics. • New York, at least, ha? as good a chance to figure in the world’? series as have the Athletics, and few at this moment are prepared to deny Connie Mack’s claim to such distinc tion From a financial aspect there might be more affable opposition, so far as we are concerned. A New York-Chicago or a New York-Cleveland tilt would undoubt edly attract more gate money be cause Quaker Town has not only been pretty well glutted with Ath letic triumphs, but is in addition at heart a 25-cent patronage. If the question were merely one of a straight pennant, and I had the selection of an opponent in the world’s serie?, I should choose none other than Mack’s Athletics. All we Giants feel that we have a score to settle for our disappoint ment of the ^ast two seasons. The sporting world conceded last fall that the Red Sox outlucked us. Cir cuit wallops by "Home Run” Baker turned the tide again;* us in 1911. We are curious to see if the Trappe, Md., slugger can cheat us out of out reward again. I see that Jack Coombs expects to be back In harness about Labor Day. I sincerely hope that he may. though his presence might reasonably be sup posed to work to our disadvantage if we happen to be lucky enough to tilt with Philadelphia in the great classic this* fall. 4 Coombs Is one of the finest pitchers in the business. If the Giants are to meet the Athletics, every one of us wishes Mack’s men to be possessed of every possible strength. We have never offered An alibi, and if we win we wish to win against the very best that the foe can present. TIGERS BUY PITCHER. ASHEVILLE. N. C., July 29.—Rus sell Betsill, of Enoree, S.
