THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEATS.
Q)
Bv 0. B. Keeler.
T HE Crackers came through this
morning and stuck to the Last
Chance, kicking the lining out
of the fluttering Pels 6 to 0, while the
Pepper Kids were coming to the front
with a clean smash at the twittering
Gulls.
That cut the Mobile lead over the
Crackers to four games, and, inci
dentally, put it all up to the p. m.
games.
The morning affair at Ponce DeLeon
was a huge success. Carl Thompson
pitched air-tight ball all the way,
while the Pelicans, with “Dixie” Wal
ker on the slab, sat steady in the boat
for six rounds and jumped overboard
with a despairing slash in the cele
brated seventh.
One Round Settled It.
That heroic round settled It, al
though, with Carl operating In his
cleverest vein, the two runs scraped
together earlier figured out one run
more than was necessary.
Joe Agler got himself a home run
in the third inning, his hard drive
-streaking down the right field foul
line and hiding itself under the Bull,
so that Mr. R. F. Green had to go
around behind that gigantic animal to
retrieve the pellet. Joe scored the
second run on a base on balls, an
out, Welchonce’s scratch single and
Wally Smith’s sacrifice fly.
The seventh inning was a scream.
Crowd Was Joyous.
Just before it began, the score of the
Chattanooga-Mobile game was post
ed, and the big assembly went into a
series of joyous spasms. Everything
that happened from then on was
greeted with whoops of delight—and
there was a lot happened.
Two were out in the seventh, when
■ Welchonce got another hit, reducing
the record’s lead on him to five blows.
Smith hit to the unfortunate Erwin,
who was after the error record for
one game, and he made a two-base
throw into right field, on which Harry,
legging it on the hit-and-run signal,
reached the platter. A wild pitch to
Bisland scored Smith, after which
Rivington singled. He went to third
on Holland’s hit, and the pair then
pulled a double steal, Harry reaching
third when Adams fumbled the return
to the plate.
Holland Stole Home.
Then Harry stole home cleanly, just
to keep things moving. Nixon ended
the session by a grounder to Hendryx.
Most of the features of the game
were compressed in the seventh in
ning, so far as our attack was con
cerned. Walker pitched pretty good
ball at other times, and Thompson
was in grand form. A gloved hand
catch of a line drive, performed by
Hendryx in the first round, robbed
Welchonce of a hit, but Harry got a
pair after that.
Between 3,000 and 4,000 saw the
game.

HENRICKSEN RECOVERING.
BOSTON. Sept. 1.—Olaf Henriok-

very nicely,
CHICAGO, Sept. 1.—If Johnny
Griffith, the Akron lightweight, can
make the showing against Charlie
White Labor Day afternoon at Can
ton, Ohio, that his admirers think he
can. Charlie will have to start his
ring career all over again.
Ohio scribes, particularly those In
Cleveland, are hailing this Akron boy
as a wonder and a sure conqueror of
the local Hebrew, and a knockout
victory Is even predicted by one. So
sure do the Cleveland people feel that
Griffith will win that they are won
dering if it will be wise to send their
hope against Willie Ritchie. That
Griffith is one of the most promising
youngsters of the game goes without
saying. He Is fa*<t, clever and can
deliver a stiff kick with either hand.
He has been getting bigger and
stronger steadily and with his grow
ing has improved his finer points of
the game. He is going to give White
a stiff argument, that much can be
looked for, but there Is doubt that he
will be able to do as well as draw
with the local lad.
Just now Charlie is at his best and
without question the best 128-pound
er in the business. He has shown
Cleveland his worth by making Kil-
bane go the limit to get an even break
and he polished Kid Julian off in
handy style
White’s one-two punch, the most
effective in his repertory, did deadly
execution. He used it with such ex
cellent Judgment that Julian never
knew when to expect it, and as a con
sequence he was not prepared for the
! jolt when White launched It.
i White is a good two-handed boxer.
I He is without doubt the most formid
able boy that Griffith has yet been
called upon to do battle with, and
I should the Akron boy happen to win
i the dopesters could not help conced
ing him the right to step out into the
swiftest of lightweight company and
to*s his hat into the ring with the
championship contenders, for White
has defeated boys who have fought
for championships. Owen Moran, the
noted English lightweight, among the
■ number
