TTTP ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. ONLYTHHEE LEFT OF COBS’ By 0. B. Keeler. A COUPLE of days ago the papers carried a bit of baseball news to the effect that Edward Reulbach had been traded by the Cubs for Eddie Stack, of Brooklyn. Of itself, that wasn’t a very ex citing bit of information. Neither Mr. Stuck nor Mr. Reulbach has been exceeding any speed limits this year —even in Philadelphia. But aside from that— Say. did you notice a queer little nip of regret when you read that small item? T T just marked the passing of one 1 more of the few remaining origi nal Cubs; the wonderful clan gath ered by Frank Selee and molded by Frank Chance into what many will always believe to have been the great est baseball machine of all time. And those who sing the praises of the Ath letics and the rest have at last to admit that Connie Mack and the others have yet to win 116 games in a season. B UT that’s by the way. You remember the Original Cubs, don’t you? Let’s see—can we recall the line-up of the smashing years of 1906-7-8? Well, back of the wood was Johnny Kling, aided and abetted by Pat Mo ran—what little aiding and abetting Johnny needed in thoee halcyon days. The slab staff? We'll match that, now, against any in history. Brown. Reulbach, Overall and Pfeister for tne regulars, with Chick Frazer and Carl Lundgren In reserve. Frazer was a celebrated chicken fancier, you re member, and Carl could pitch better with the thermometer at 32 than most pitchers could on July 4. The Infield—Chance and Evers and Tinker and Steinfeldt; and the rip and swing of the old Tinker-to-Evers- to-Chance that made the pace for all their day. _ . The Outfield—Schulte and Slagle and Sheckard; the celebrated S. S &. combination, with the Rabbit to top the batting list and Artie Hofman to fill In on occasion. * * * W ELL, well—we’ll take stock of the remains. . _ , _ _ Schulte and Ever?, and Orvle Over all, who is plugging along on the come-back trail after a couple of years’ defection. , .. . Reulbach made the fourth of the Old Guard, until the other day. Big Ed hadn’t done much the last few years. But don’t forget that three times Big Ed topped the whole list of slabmen In the National League, and that when Brown and Mathew- son were in their prime. Four fighting Grizzlies, Sturdy as can be Big Ed was traded, Then there were three. Who’ll be the next of the Old Guard to pass on? W ITH brief reference to the lat est chapter in that sad serial. “Losing ’Em by One Run ” it appears from a somewhat .scrambled telegraphic account that Bill Smith and Gilbert I r Jp e carne to gether In a bean-on collision aftei yesterday’s game in Nashville. Price appears to have been the one to bounce back. In fact, the report has it that Smith ordered him out of his uniform Indefinitely. The row was about the curve ball Price dealt to Callahan in the tentti inning, on which Dave Callahan dou bled for the winning run. At this distance, far be it from us to make wise criticisms of either Price or his manager. Except this much. If Price crossed up the manager on explicit instructions, he deserves all h On the other hand. If Smith took out on his pitcher the soreness inci dent to losing a hard-fought battle— Price having been sent in cold and doing his best—it looks as if the manager was overly severe. CHANCE TURNS ACTOR WITH MOVING PICTURE CONCERN NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—Frank Chance, manager of the-Highlanders, is now an actor. He has been engaged by a mov ing picture company to take the leading part in a scenario entitled “The F’eer- leas Leader,” some of the scenes of which will be laid at the Polo Grounds. New York. Chance has hen rehearsing the role In a Jersey City studio since Monday. Catcher Sweeney, Outfielder Daniels and Hartzell will also appear in the film Us Boys Registered United Rtxt** Patent Office.

F rank whitney, the fighting carpenter from Cedar Rapids. Iowa, is due here at 11 o’clock this morning for his coming 10-round bout with Charley White at the Audi torium-Armory Wednesday night. A wire from Nate Lewis, manager of Charley White, Informs us that the Chicago boy will be here to-mor row morning. With both fighters on the battle ground local fans will have a chance to see the coming rivals in their training grind. Whitney will pitch his tent at once in the Atlanta Athletic Club, where he intends to do the rest of his pre liminary work for what he considers to be the most important fight of his career. Frank will do most of his boxing with Jimmy Perry, and the welterweight should be a valuable aid to him. The Cedar Rapids boy will also get a couple of lighter boys to box with. W HAT Whitney is after is speed. Frank learned while in Chicago that his coming oy^onent is about the best piece of fighting machinery in the world. He also realizes that a victory over Charley will put him among the leaders of the 133-pound ers. Chances of this kind don’t come to boxers every day. The promoters of the Atlanta Athletic Association have given Whitney the opportunity he has been pinning for during the past year. C HARLEY is still young and has a bright future. White was 22 years old March 25 and has been boxing five years. During that period never has a boxer succeeded in stop ping him. or better than that, no boxer has ever even floored him. When it is taken into considera tion that White has met the tough est lightweights in the world, this record is surely a remarkable one. XITHITNEY is a fighter of the oppo- ** site type to Charley. Frank loves to bore in and fight at close quarters. Once inside a man’s guard he works his handsi like a pair of piston rods, hoping to bring his man to the canvas. It Is also a fact that Whitney is a much improved boxer over the boy who was seen here about a year ago. Since leaving here Frank had about ten battles and munaged to win them all. O N the other hand, Charley White is now the most watched boxer in the world to-day. Tom McCarey has his eyes on him. Tom is serious ly thinking of putting White on with the winner of the Cross-Rivers set- to on Labor Day. and a victory over Whitney will be another feather in the Chicago boy’s cap. Jim Coffroth wants White to box Tommy Murphy in his arena, but is awaiting the out come of Charley’s scrap with Whit ney. The Western promoters have been after White for the past year, hut Nate Lewis wants his protege to pick up a few pounds in weight be fore sending him after the bigger boys. T HE Cedar Rapids boy is also aware of the fact that he is getting along in years and knows that if he Intends to get any place in the box ing world now is the time. Next Wednesday Whitney will get his chance. If he loses, fans can rest as sured that he will give them the very best he has. Whitney has yet to dis appoint a fight gathering. This after noon Whitney will be at the Atlanta Athletic Club working out for the match. ChaHey will arrive here to-mor row morning and arrangements have already been made to have him do his training in the Ponce De Leon ball park. T HE other two bouts to be staged Wednesday have been competed. Charley Lee and Kid Young signed for their return engagement yester day and these boys are expected to put up a corking mill. The semi-wind-up will be between Mike Saul and Eddie Hanlon. The boys have agreed to weigh 138 pounds at 6 o’clock, and at this weight Mike should have a great chance of winning. Both bouts are scheduled to go 10 rounds, making 30 rounds of boxing for the evening’s entertain ment. Tickets for the boxing show were placed on sale yesterday. Prices, $1, $1.50 and $2. Gunboat Smith, of California, and Fireman Jim Flynn, of Pueblo, Colo., will clash in a 10-round bout at Madison Square Garden, New York, to-night. Betting fans have made Smith a 6 to 5 favorite, but admirers of Flynn think that the fireman’s bulldog courage will , . ai ...... carry him through to victory. Frank Whitney is expected to arrive to-day for his 10-round engagement with Charlie White at the Auditorlum-Ar- rrory on Wednesday, August 13. White will be here some time to-morrow. Eddie Hanlon started hard work yes terday for his coming 10-round set-to " ’ * w- j — leroay iui mo ^ with Mike Saul next Wednesday. Han lon wants to be in the best of shape as he realizes that a victory over Mike will put him in line for some big matches. They have posted a $50 for feit to weigh 138 pounds at 6 o’clock. for twenty rounds about a month ago. Ad Wolgast has agreed to meet the winner some time in September. Billy Nolan, former manager of WMllie Ritchie, says that the champion will never meet Ad Wolgast. Nolan says that Willie fears Ad and does not want any more of his game. Over in Paris they are certainly pick ing the lemons for Georges Carpentier. Yesterday they pitted the Frenchman against a boxer named Williams and Carpentier stopped him in Tour rounds Who next? Mike Kelly, Indianapolis feather weight, is in Atlanta at the present time in search of matches with some of our 122-pounders. Kelly says he is willing to meet some of the lesser lights first in order to prove to local fans that he is made of tne right stuff. Coast fans are showing much Interest in the coming Jack White-Johnny Kil- bane bout scheduled to take place in Tom MeCarey’s arena on August 12 These two boys pat up a corking mill Leach Cross and Rivers have agreed to weigh 135 pounds ringside for their 20-round affair at Los Angeles on I^abor 1 >ay. Each boxer is to receive 30 per cent of the gross receipts. The winner will probably be sent against Willie Ritchie Jack (Twin) Sullivan, of Boston, has signed articles to box Soldier Kearns, the Brooklyn heavyweight, In a 10-round go at the Queensberrv A. C., Philadel phia, on the night of August 22. Kid Young is getting Into great shape nir for his coming battle with Charlie Lee The “fighting newsboy” is doing his boxing with Mike Saul and they certain ly arc going at it in real fashion* Baseball Summary SOUTHERN LEAGUE.

J., Aug. 8.—Frank Kramer, the world’s champion cyclist, proved his right to the title when he deffeated Jackie Clarke, the Australi an “Rocket” in two out of three heats of a one-mile match race at the Vel- drume kttru laat night. GILBERT PRICE SUSPENDED KFTER GAME N ashville, tenn., Aug. 8.— It is understood nere that Manager Billy Smith of the Crackers and Gilbert Price, his star left-hand hurler, had a warm argu ment after yesterday’s game, regard ing the curve ball whl(?h Price pitched to Callahan in the tenth in ning. Dave pasted the pill for a couple of bases and the winning run. Price had been sent in by Smith to take Dent’s place in front of Callahan, who is a left-hand hit ter, and Spratt, also batting from that side. It is not plain just what the con tention was, but it seems the man ager told Price at the end of it that he was under suspension. Price went to the slab without much time to warm up, and that was the rea son generally ascribed to his lack of effectiveness, but Smith seemed to take another view of it. Smith had a short conference with Manager Schwartz concerning Jud Daley, but the boss of the Vols was not in the mood to shake up his team, and the result of the first game probably cemented that posi tion. JACK BARRY FIRST OF MACKMEN TO BE HURT PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 8.—The first serious accidr-nt of the season to Connie Mack’s famous infield has re sulted in Shortstop Jack Barry being put on the hospital list with a bad shoulder, caused by his bumping into Catcher O’Neil at the plate in Wed nesday’s game. Barry probably will be unable to play for a week. OTHER RESULTS. Virginia League. Petersburg 5, Portsmouth 2. Norfolk 4 Newport News 2. Roanoke 2, Richmond 1. Carolina Association.

O XE day / wrote a story—a real pippin, on the square— And clubs were formed to root for me; they boosted me for fair. They bought up all the papers and rerote letters to my Boss; They told him how they loved me and how much they’d feel my loss. I had a fair young “sorry”—it was doubled twice and thrice; They presented me with autos and tons of shirt-front ice; 1 had eleven loving imps, a house and lot—a prize— And I was chased with offers from a lot of vaudeville guys. Then Senator O’Gorman, with an other tony gent, Insisted I should call at once upon the President. I just was mitting Woodrow, when I heard the bell-hop's call!

THE WAR AGAINST GAM- bling in baseball is carried on re lentlessly. The magnates will stand for nothing but a sure thing. MR. MURPHY SAYS THAT Evers is not to be relieved of the managership of the Cubs His sen tence has not yet expired. THE FACT THAT BOMBAR- dier Wells has knocked out one Pat O’Keefe arouses no emotion except ing a lively curiosity to see O’Keefe. THE NATIONAL COMMISSION is about to take steps to prohibit ball players from riding in autos. It is held that no ball player has a right to be injured where anyone can see the accident for nothing. LEACH CROSS HAS BEEN matched with Joe Rivers, and it behooves him to work gently. A few more knock-outs and be will be barred on the ground that he has an international reputation. IN THAT CONNECTION there is some comfort in the thought that Champions Kilbane and Ritchie are about to circle the globe. They will undoubtedly be black listed when they return. W ASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—During the early spring days of 1912 a young ball tosser applied for admittance to the ball park in Washington, where Clark Griffith, Walter Johnson, Herman Schaefer and other Nationals were romping about. He was too bashful to speak to anybody, just watched the athletes perform. The next morning the same kid was on hand. He had read about the great Johnson, Walsh, Coombs, Ben der, Wood and other pitchers. He was a pitcher, too. Rather, on the lots In Washington he curved ’em for the semi-pro teams, and as he usual ly won, he thought he’d like to be come acquainted with the big leaguers. The kid chatted with members of the Nationals, asked who was man ager, and if he could talk to him. “Griffith is manager; he's standing over there,” informed one athlete to the youngster. The kid walked over to Griffith. “I’m a pitcher. I’d like to toss a few to your hitters,” was his opening sentence to Griffith. “Where do you hail from?” flashed back the Fox. “Right here! Pitch on Saturdays and haven’t lost a game for a year,” returned the youngster. "Go to the dressing room, put on a suit and let me take a look at you,” answered Griffith. Sometimes he got away all right, sometimes he didn't. The 1912 season was over. The kid had a bunch of experience. This past spring he was a regular member of the team, was along on the practice tour and watched every movement made by his favorite, Johnson. Finally the kid got a chance to show himself at the start. .. He won, allowing only a few hits and a run or two. Then it was that Griffith realized he had a wonderful pitcher. Recently Joe Engel beat the St. Louis Browns 2 to 1 with three scat tered hits, and, according to press accounts of the game, showed almost rh much stuff as Walter Johnson. Joe Engel was the timid kid who intro duced himself to Griffith in the spring of 1912. MAJOR CALLAWAY OFF TO SEE CLARK GRIFFITH NOW THE youth appeared, went to the 1 hill and pitched during the bat ting practice. The players gave Griff the merry ha-ha. They wanted to know where the boss plucked the novice. When the ball came near the plate usually the sluggers lifted it over the heads of the outfielders. All the time,though, Griff was watching his new entrant. He saw that he had a lot of speed and a fast breaking curve. But the kid was awk ward and didn’t have the proper de livery. As the youngster Improved with each day and began to show dazzing sp‘*ed, he was introduced to his idol, Walter Johnson. Always chummy with aspiring kids, Johnson took an interest in the new acquisition. He showed him how to throw the fast one, the movement with the shoulder, how to curve the on e down around the knees and the fast break high on the Inside. After a few lessons GrifT and the players were surprised. In a few weeks the batters began popping the fast ones and hitting easy grounders on the curves. Major Frank Callaway, president of the Atlanta ball club, is a lively little traveler these days. Yesterday Major Callaway, who had Just returned from Chattanooga, set out for Washington to confer with Clark Griffith concerning the terms of the agreement now existing between the Senators and the Crackers. It is not understood that there is any disputed point to be settled, or that any thing Is to be done with reference to Clark and JL/ong, but that with the claim ing date close at hand Major Callaway wished to be in perfect accord with the Old Fox as to all the provisions of the treaty, so that the Atlanta club could deal intelligently with all its players. ANOTHER PHEN0M MAY GO UP TO MAJOR LEAGUES CALGARY, ALBERTA, Aug. ..—Jack Roche. Calgary catcher, seems sure to go to one of the big league teams. The White Sox, Cubs, Cardinals and Yankees are all bidding for the youngster. He is batting .354 and fielding .986. Comlskey made the first bid, but no price was set. Murphy has since requested the price, but has been asked to make an offer. Indianapolis, Louisville. Mobile and I^os Angeles also ore after him. The sale is likely to be made to-day. r—~ THE OLD RELIABLE" PLANTEN l S oR Bl ack C Sr CAPSULES R E M E PYfor MEN W HEN it came time to make the i first trip Griffith asked his j strange tosser how he’d like to make j a trip with the team. “Do you think I can pitch?” was ( his answer. ”1 don’t know; I’ll try you out,” j returned the boss. The Nationals made several trips, and when a game was practically lost the kid got a chance to show himself. AT DRUGGI8T8.0RTRIAL BOX BY MAILCOv FROM PIAMTEN 93 HENRY ST.
