I N less than one week polo In At

fact. A match is scheduled for
next Wednesday afternoon at the pa
rade ground at Fort McPherson, when
a quartet representing the city will
meet a crack team of the Seventeenth

captained by Captain J. O. Seamans,
of the Governor's Horse Guard, who
played the game in the army. Al
bert S. J. Tucker, of I>exington, Va„
E. M. Landrum, of Pensacola, Fla .
end Milton Wise, of New York, will
complete the four, with Lamar Hill
and Tom Weaver, of Atlanta, as sub
stitutes. who stand a good chance to
get in the game before Its close in
case of an accident.
The list of officials includes ex-
Mayor R. F. Maddox, timer; Wilm^r i
L. Moore, scorer, and James R Gray
and Clark Howell, goal Judges. The
always responsible position of refere.
will be filled by Colonel M E. Car-
thew-Yorstoun, retired British Army
officer, who played the game for j
twenty years while in the Indian
service.
Motion pictures of the game are to
be made, and there will be gymk
hana sports as features of the after
noon—a tug of war, wrestrling on
horseback, and so on. The regiment'll
band will furnish music, and the
Glee Club of Company M will be
heard.

Crackers Come Limping Home

Pennant Hope Wanes on Jaunt
By O. B. Keeler.
Sporting Food
By QKOROI ft. PHAI*» >
I N the matter of a welcome for the
homing Crackers, sentiment wa«
divided to-day between meeting
them with a posse or ar. ambulance.
Nobody swld anything about a band.
Thirteen contests were played on
the disastrous road trip, the Crack
ers losing nine games, two ball play
ers, third place and substantially all
hope of a pennant for 1913.
The long run totted up six defeats
in a row, most of them by one run.
An even break with the pop-eyed
Pelicans was the best thing the
Crackers* did on the Jaunt.
Memphis took two out of three.
Montgomery captured the only two
games played there, and the Gulls
rounded off the diabolical business
yesterday, making It nearly unani
mous.
T HERE doesn't seem to be much
satisfaction in a post-mortem,
and alibis are not In atyle any mors.
But It w*as plain, even from this
distance, that Smith's men weren’t
getting the breaks. Maybe thev didn’t
deserve to. It has been our observa
tion that the edge In luck generally
la wMth the club that Is on its toes,
fighting all the way.
Certainly the hitting slumped. And
on the few occasions when the hit
ters revived, the pitching collapsed.
Which Is a fine little combination
for losing ball games.
• • .
VITHITEY ALPERMAN’S Illness
vv will be felt from now on, but
It came too late In the trip to be
charged with much of the damage.
Bill Bailey's busted rib may carry a
share of the blame, but not much.
Anyway, the fans here will have a
chance to look over some new ma
terial. In the highly condensed flve-
games-ln-three-davs series with the
Volunteers.
George Clarke and the giant Love,
southpaw slabmen, will make their
bow. Outfielder Holtz, too. is a new
one.
And that brings us to Harry Hol
land. Tech’s great lnflelder.

THE Idea Is that the star college
1 player signed with the Crackers
largely out of loyalty to the town.
It is certain that In the last two years
Holland has had many a chance to
try his lurk In the big show*. Connie
Mack, Clark Griffith and others have
angled vainly for him.
His folks didn’t want him to play
professional ball.
Bo Harry stayed off—until patriot
ism collaborated with the cal) of the
game
And now* the announcement i« that
Tech’s greatest hall player will work
around second base in the present se
ries
More power to him!
13 EVERTING orce more to the trou-
bles of C. Frank, some sorrow
ful Dutchman, it may be taken as
faintly significant that the roll of
sev.re injuries to the Pelicans in the
season of 1913 now shows a total of
thirteen.
Here Is the list:
Pitcher Williams, wrenched knee.
Shortstop Knaupp, spiked hand.
Catcher Yantz, fractured leg
lnflelder Manush, wrenched knee.
lnflelder Williams, sprained ankle.
Second Baseman McDowell, twisted
knee.
Pitcher Weaver, lame arm.
lnflelder Atz, thumb dislocated.
Pitcher Walker, bruised hand.
Outfielder James, broken shoulder.
Catcher Angemeler. spiked hand.
lnflelder Atz, sprained ankle.
Catcher Adams, broken finger.
These casualties include only such
as have put players out of the game
for periods affecting the team’s work
seriously.
Also it may be noted that Ange
meler has Just been released by Prank,
who was forced to do something by
a actuation which caused him to use
& pitcher in the field, while having
eighteen players nominally on hand.
Yantz's leg Is about well once more,
and he will soon be ready to relieve
Adams, who Is catching with a wrap
ped digits
It seems other people have eome
troubles, too.
UMPIRE REFUSES TO EJECT
FAN WHO INSULTED COBB
NEW YORK, July 31.—The unsuccess
ful attempt of Ty Cobb to have a spec
tator removed from the stands at Phil
adelphla on Tuesday during the Detrolt-
Athletic8 game is to be made the sub
Ject of an investigation by the Baseball
Players' Fraternity.
According to Cobb, the spectator ad
dressed objectionable language to him.
Cobb called upon the umpire to eject
the objectionable person. This method
was suggested by the National Commis
sion, according to Fultz, of the Frater
nity
Evidently It did not work satisfac
torily in Philadelphia for Fultz, in iia-
cusslng the affair, said:
"The fact that the scpectator was al
lowed to remain In the stand proves
that the method adopted by organized
baseball for handling this evil Is gross
ly inadequate.
rne Players fraternity has repeat
edly made suggestions, which, if adopt
ed. would prove of much benefit, but the
National Commission has so far disre
garded them."
MILLEN BEATS EAST POINT.
MILLEN, GA., July 31.—In the second
game of the series, Millen defeated East
Point here to-day by a score of 4 to 0.
Daniel, for the locals, twirled splendid
ball, fanning ten men and giving up
only five scattered hits. The feature of
the game was the fielding of Doc Ray
at short for Millen.
THE CUBS.
Peace! Peace! Peace!
They smile and they say: “Ahem!"
And they would that their tongues
could utter
The thoughts that arise in them.
O, well for the John McOraws
As they hammer the horsehide pill!
O, well for the Connie Macks
With hats that never are still!
And the schedule ambles on
And they feel like a bunch of bums,
And yearn for a hand in the gate re
ceipts
When the big world series comes.
Peace! Peace! Peace!
It's a heluva peaceful crowd,
And they think of the guy who owns
the club
But they never will think aloud.
The report from Los Angeles that
Rlt« ‘ ’
Messrs. Ritchie and Wolgast are betting
at the rate of $25,000 per throw leads
one to suspect that the silly season has
•truck Los Angeles In a virulent form.
Still, ene must admit that Messrs.
Ritchie and Wolgaet are hitting at least
.360 In the Press Agent League.
The report that C. Hercules Ebbeta
la out on a scouting trip leads one to
suspect that C. Hercules Is looking for
another excuse to perpetrate a dedica
tion ceremony.

W ELL, we’re home again, and
mighty glad to be here, if
only for a short visit full of
double-headers.
We are not proud of the last tTip,
but we are nr* going to cry about it,
either. We had tough luck, and lost
a bigger percentage of games by a
single run than I remember ever see
ing before. Also, we lost two mighty
valuable players by injury and ap
pendicitis. That isn’t all. Several
others on this club are working main
ly on their nerve, suffering from all
kinds of minor Injuries.
But we are going to keep at it, and
you may be prepared to watch us go
some when we finally come home to
roost at Ponce DeLeon for the last
long series.
The first game with the Gulls yes
terday was the same old story—we
would make a run and the Gulls
would se It and raise us one. Clark
pitched good ball, but we couldn’t
get him enough runs to win.
In the second game, Joe Conzelman
and Bradley Hogg had a fine pitching
duel up to the last inning. Then
Harry Welchonce stepped up *and
leaned against one of Bradley’s fast
ones, kicking it clean out of the lot,
scoring Tommy Long ahead of him,
and the score ended 4 to 2 in our
favor. Harry had a regular field day,
getting two singles and a double in
addition to his four-ply mash in the
ninth.
W e all went over to inquire about
Whitey Alperman before leaving Mo
bile. The doctors say he is quite out
of danger and improving rapidly,
which makes us all feel better.
I understand Harry Holland, the
Tech infielder, is a member of the
club now and that he may work to
day. The fellows who know all agree
he is a wonder, both in the field and
at the platter, and we will welcome
him as a member of the wrecking
crew. If he plays second base, that
w’ill enable Smith to return to his
regular job at third and leave Ma
nush available in the event of more
damage to our long-suffering aggre
gation.
Besides Holland, we have Clark and
Love, new* left-hand pitchers, and
Outfielder Holtz to show* the fans.
Clark is a pitcher of undoubted class
and Love shows a barrel of stufT in
practice. He may get a chance In one
of the games here against the Volun
teers. Holtz played yesterday. He
did not bat very heavily, but showed
accuracy and class in the field and in
The sailors then tcere silent men

But spare that case of beer!"
the second game did some flashy
work on the towpath, stealing two
bases.
Manager Smith said this morning
he expected to use Dent in the open
ing game this afternoon, with Chap
man catching. Elliott is in fine shape
and should give the Vols a bad time.
That club, however, has been hard for
the Crackers all season, and we don’t
look for any walk-over, even when
it is in the role of chopping block
for the rest of the clubs.
We will catch the double-headers
to-morrow and Saturday, unless it
rains, as I understand it has been
doing pretty regularly around here.
BASEBALL
Diamond News and Gossip
The Cardinals shook up their batting
order. They played like champions,
stinging the ball hard and driving two
pitchers from the box. The Braves were
helpless before Harmon.
The Phillies tried In a desperate ninth
inning rally to beat out the Reus, but
failed short of one run. Incidentally
Ames helped his old teammates when
he defeated the runners-up.
Rube Benton’s motorcycle accident
will prove a costly one for the Reds’
star pitcher. Not only will he likely be
out of the game for the rest of the
season, but he will not draw his salary
while away from the team. President
Herrman of the Reds, said he had
warned Benton to quit cycling during
the ball season and says Benton must
suffer for his injustice to the club.
