j nr. Ait/Aix ift <irAmuiAAi a.'vji incwo.
By 0. B. Keeler.
A COUPLE of days ago the papers
carried a bit of baseball news
to the effect that Edward
Reulbaeh 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. Stack nor Mr. Reulbaeh 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 just marked the passing of one
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 thos>e halcyon days.
The slab staff? We’ll match that,
now, against any in history. Brown.
Reulbaeh, Overall and Pfeister for the
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
^Th/outfleld—Schulte and Slagle
and Sheckard; the celebrated S. a 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 Evers, and Orvie Over
all, who Is plugging along on the
come-back trail after a couple of
years’ defection. .
Reulbaeh made the fourth of tn»
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 lighting Grizzlies,
Sturdy as cun he—
Big Fd runs 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 Price came to-
fr-thci 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 .tenth
inning, on which Dave Callahan dou
bled for the winning run.
-\t 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 0t the other hand, if Smith took
out on his pitcher the soreness inci
dent to losing a hard-fought battle
Pnce 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 Peer

which will be laid at the Polo Grounds,

Frank Whitney Due Here To-day
+•+ -J-»-5- +*-5- +•+
Charley White Arrives Saturday
Bv Left Hook.
F rank whitnbt, the fighting
carpenter from Cedar Rapids-
Iowa, is due here at 11 o’clock
this morning for his coming 10-rounJ
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 res* 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 opponent 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 fer during the
past year.
• * *
O N the other hand. Charley White
is now the most watched boxer
in the world to-day. Toni 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,
but Nate Lewis wants his protege
to pick up a few pounds in weight be
fore sending him after the bigger
boys.

PHARLEY is still young and has
a bright future. White was
22 vears 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 haw 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.
• • *
YVf HITNFY is a fighter of the oppo-
vv site tvpe to Charley. Frank
loves to bore in and fight at close
quarters. Once inside a man’s guard
he works his .hands 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 hoy
who was sppn here about a year ago.
Since leaving here F*rank had about*
ten battles and managed to win them
all.
• M •
T HE C£dar Rapids hoy 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 he at the Atlanta
Athletic Club working out for the
match.
Charley 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 completed
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 sgreed 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. SI.
$1.50 and S2.
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
cjirry him through to victory.

to-day for his 10-round engagement with
Charlie White at the Auditorium-Ar
mory on Wednesday, August 13. White
will be here some time to-morrow.

GILBERT Pffit
SUSPENDED
AFTER GAME
N ashville, texn., Aug. s.—
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 which Price
pitched to Callahan in the tenth in
ning. Dave parted 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 Jtid
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.

NOT TRUE.
O NE day I wrote a story—a real
pippin, on the square—
And clubs were formed to root for
me: they boosted yne for fair.
They bought up all the papers and
wrote letters to my Boss;
They told him how they loved me
and how much they'd feel my
loss.
I had a fair young “saVry"—it was
doubled twice and thrice;
They presented me with autos and
tons of shirt-front ice;
1 had eleven loving cups, 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 mitt ing Woodrow, when
/ heard the bell-hop's call!
I'd dreamed, instead of batting

Timid Kid Asked Griff for a Job
Engel Promises to Become a Star
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.
• • •
'THE youth appeared, went to the
1 hill and pitched during the hat
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
speed, 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 one down around
the knees and the fast break high on
the inside.
After ft few lessons Griff and the
players were surprised. In a few
weeks the batters began popping the
fast ones and hitting easy grounders
on the curves.
• • •
\U HEN it came time to make the
** first trip Griffith asked his
strange tosser how he’d like to make
a trip with the team.
“Do you think I can pitch?’’ was
his answer.
“I don’t know; I’ll try you out,”
returned the boss.
The Nationals made several trips,
and when a game was practically lost
the kid got a change to show himself.
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 heat the St.
Louis Browns 2 to 1 with three scat
tered hits, and, according to press
accounts of the game, showed almost
as 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
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 ndw existing between the
Senators and the Crackers.
It is not understood that there is any
disputed point to be settled, or that any
thing Ik to be done with reference to
Clark an<l Long, hut 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

Roche. Calgary catcher, seems sure to
go to one of the big league teams. The
White Box, Cubs, Cardinals and Yankees
