DOUBLE HEADER -FIRST GAME 2:15
DeLeon Park
TROY, N. Y., Aug. 1 P. Vedder
Sitton, former Atlanta pitcher, now
with the Troy club, of the* New York
State League, shut Wilkesbarre out
without a run or hit yesterday after
noon. Not one of the visiting play
ers reached second base, and only
three reached first, each on a base on
bells.
Litton received brilliant support.
SiUon one of those ball players
whom the finger of fate seems to
touch at widely separated intervals,
and with something like a caress.
He is remembered around the
Southern League as the chap who
helped to win two pennants in a sin
gle year, and came within a game of
making it three.
In 1908, Sltton's work on the slab
was responsible for the pennant in
the Sally League. Then he went to
Nashville, and pitched the final game
of tiie season, on w hich the pennant
depended, beating Breitenstein of
New Orleans. 1 to 0. Then the
youngster went to Cleveland, making
its best attempt to win an American
League pennant. But Cleveland lost
out in the last pair of games.
Since then Sitton has been drifting
about the country, pitching grand
ball in flashes and streaks.

Bill Bailey Placed
On Ineligible List
Bill Bailey, plucky Cracker outfielder,
has been placed on the ineligible list
by the management, for the next ten
days, and at the expiration of that time
it is probable he will be released, if
•waivers have been obtained. This move
was made necessary by the signing ot
Harry Holland, the Tech third base
man
Bailey had been unfortunate all sea
son. He has suffered from pains in
Ids side, and a pitched hall, striking
him in the same place during the New
Orleans series, tore loose a couple of
ihs and practically disabled him.
Bailey expects to return to his home
in a few days and will play no more hall
this season.

m BIT TO
s
HIS SEASON
By Sam Crane.
C HICAGO, ILL., Aug. 1.—Christy
Mathewson, who was quite an
old fellow in baseball as play
ers go several years before Charlie
Ebbets declared that the game was
only in its infancy, finds it necessary
to step out and give a real exhibition
of the art of pitching every now and
then to convince some folks that he
ha>* not gone into decay.
Matty is not usually prone to
amassing records. He discovered
some time back in the dark ages of
the game that a well-preserved arm.
protected from the strain of getting
records, paid dividends longer than
one that Hashed all its best stuff in
a short time and then went out like
a flame on a wet s*tick. But if these
records persist in forcing themselves
upon him. he will not purposely step
aside to avoid them.
The Old Master is out to bag 30
victories this season. This is not a
record by any means, for Matty him
self has done better several times in
the years gone hy. but for a man
pitching in his thirteenth year in the
big league, it is strong evidence that
he is still there or thereabouts.

Mr. Fogle says that either Pied

an ideal place for fly-casting tour

tiest sporting events to be seen any
where to-day. The ultimate object
of the club would be affiliation with

FOILED.
A bandit placed a gatling gun against j
a stranger's brow.
The stranger merely smiled at him\
and said: "Poo/?. Pooh, for thou! |
Pooh, Pooh for thou, and likewise
Fudge and also Pish and Tush !
I do not fear the gatling gun that
stares me in the mush.
For I have been in baseball parks
where peanut merchants ply,
And / hare sat there unafraid and
looked them in the eye,
And though they poked me in the
stats and gave me bitter pain,
And though they walked upon m-y
corns, they tortured me in vain.
What chance have you. an amateur
to make me tremble nowf
Again I say Pooh, Pooh, and Tush
and likewise Fudge for thou!”
The bandit slowly went his way, and
sore at heart was he.
“What chance is there” he sadly said
"for bush league guys like met”
Quoth the London Dally Express:
"The monotony of defeat becomes de
pressing. " This sounds as if It were
written by a baseball scribe In St. Louis.
Frank Navin is of the few mag
nates who have the Interests of the pub
lic at heart. Realizing that the good
citizens of Detroit wanted some regu
lar baseball, he staged a game between
Buffalo and Providence.
It is said, that Bill Carrlgan will be
given a free hand In Boston. In other
words, he rViay do as he pleases, as long
as he pleases J. McAleer.
A baseball manager these days is al
most as sure of his job as a President of
Mexico.
Ever and anon a scout unearths what
he calls a slugging outfielder, but he
falls to inform us whether said out
fielder slugs the ball, the umpire or his
fellow athletes.
OUR BLUE LAWS.
Mother, may / go out to swim?
Yes, my darling daughter.
Hut wear a skirt and an overcoat
When you go in the water.
It is hoped that none of the Giant
pitchers will attempt to bean the Great
Zim. If Mr. Zim were hit on the head
; with sufficient force, It would sprain his
ankle.
"Boxers Seek Work,” quoth a head
line, but it fails to tell us whom they
seek to work.
As a wise old gent once remarked, a
man is known by the guys he hangs out
with. After consorting with Tom Jones
for a few years, Ad Wolgast bets $25,000
a throw as if he really meant it.
Just to show that he is a versatile
manager, Joe Tinker occasionally loses
two games a day instead of one.
Even if Horace Fogel’s new league
does not pari out, he can make a good
living hy hiring out as a model in a
phonograph factory.
Sittling in his Morris chair in New
York, Jim Corbett hands us a vivid de
scription of the Williams-Ledoux con
flict in Los Angeles, thereby demon
strating that he Is the greatest long dis
tance eyewitness in captivity.
HUMAN NATURE.
Were I a baseball magnate
And owned a team or two.
Fd hunt the golden kale, l fear.
And walk upon the public's ear
The same as magnates do.
No, Rudolph; there is no truth In the
report that Roger Bresnahan and John
Evers will double up In a vaudeville
stunt next winter.
Castro Starts “Regular” Club
Bv Left Hook.
C IPRIANO CASTRO, an exiled personage, was a rank bush
leaguer compared to his nephew, Count Lou Castro, when it
came to promoting. Cipriano tried to promote matters down
in Venezuela, but he couldn’t get away with it. Not so with Count
Lou.
Count Lou got it into his bonnet that boxing could be made
to pay in this hustling burg. The Count believes in high-class af
fairs, high-class clubhouse, high-class mixers and a high-class lo
cation.
Result:
Charley White will meet Frank Whitney in a ten-round bo'Jt
here on the evening of August 13.
On the same program will be two other high-class battles. In
one, Mike Saul will endeavor to sfibw Eddie Hanlon where he gets
off. In the other, Kid Young will try to avenge a recent beating
by turning the tables on Charley Lee.
The bouts will be staged at the Ponce DeLeon skating rink.
The ring will be adorned with plush ropes and highly-polished
brass posts.
The Count will referee himself, and will be decorated in a
Tuxedo.
A
LL of which proves our assertion that the Count is going to
show his uncle up. Cipriauio never got away with anything
as big as this.
And on Labor Day the Count plans to send the winner of the
White-Whitney scrap right back at Jack Britton. Within two or
three months he believes he will have a championship battle here.
# # # *
A S for the main bout, let us whisper that it is by far the classiest
ever offered Atlanta fans. White is a neaV champion. He
made a tremendous hit here when he stopped Jake Abel in less
than two rounds.
Whitney is the most popular boxer who ever displayed wares
here. He is tough and rugged, and will give the Chicagoan a merry
time of it for ten rounds.
Both boys will be here within a few days. They want to be
come acclimated, and realize that they must have at least ten days
