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 Regiment. The meeting Is important from the fart that It will in all probability oe the forerunner of a Southern polo cir cuit. with at least one crack team here to compete with quartets from other cities and clubs. Spectators at the first match may be assured of seeing an excellent ex hibition. The Atlanta team will be 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.

ANGEMEIER IS LET OUT.

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. T0 2:30 V GRAND T0 .^ 0MT CARNEGIE MUSEUM ALASKA-SIBERIA PICTURES And High-Class First Run Movies Mat.lOc; Night 10c, 15c & 25c 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. Dsve Fultz srlsee to remark that hs Is not afraid of losing his job as head of the Baseball Fraternity. But why ahould any man be afraid of losing his Job as head of the Baseball Fraternity? Dent Will Hurl Against Vols JEFF PFEFFEF HAS GREAT RECORD; TO JOIN DODGERS +*+ +•+ +*+ +*4- Harry Holland By Joe Agler. to Play Second Horace Fogel avers that he will bust up organized baseball, but he la not do ing as much work In that direction as some of the magnates who live by the said organized baseball. When Jimmy Archer is not traveling ' • pit from the hospital to the ball yard, he is traveling from the ball yard to the hos pital. James would save money by char tering an ambulance by the year ADMIRAL OF THE ICE BOX. It is a youthful admiral mariner. He saileth on a yacht. A guy doth swear: “Get busy t;+eret" He answers: *7 will not !** Though he is not a commodore, A captain or a mate, He laughs, Ho! Ho! while breezes blow And sits in royal state. 7 hold the key,*' respondeth he, And roared a gladsome roar. 7 hold the key and none save me Can swing the ice box door!" 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 And all wore looks of fear. And one man spake: “The ship may breaks 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.
