I o TTTF ATLANTA GFIORffrAN AND NEWS ■ MLD’SSEHES By Allen Sangree. N rEW YORK, S< J te the hardest fought world's serU s* that the country * »■ e «r Been.” observed the long-legged, silent Cornetiue MacGiWcuddy, the other night at the hotel where his club puts ut> In New York. Mack is as talkative as a crutch. The only way Friend Writer could fret him started was by remarking that the Giants will cop this *1913 pennant through superior pitching. “I have some young pitchers who will give the Giants a tussle,'* broke open the silent Irishman, "and they are Brown, Shaw key, Houck and Bush. Now. mind you. I am going to have in this world's series two old- timers. Plank and the Indian, Bender. These veterans took part in the fir®i battle that I had with McGraw. also the' second, and they are going to be features in this series, providing Mc Graw and I win out In our respective leagues.” "1 realize that McGraw’* club is stronger than it was in 1911,” con tinued the Philadelphia strategist, "and I can see that my men have a battle ahead of them Depends on “Break of Luck.” "No, I won’t Bay that the Athletics will out hit New York. I suppose a good deal will depend upon the break of luck. Now, I want to tell you about the first time my club bumped up against New York. You can draw your own conclusions. No manager Is going to knock an opposing club in a world’s .series, nor Is he going to alibi. But here were the facts in 1906: “I had Topsy Hartsel, Lord and ‘Socks' Reybold in the outfield and the Cross brothers, Danny Murphy and Harry Davis in the infh Id. I will say that all those boys were worn out when we tackled the Giant*. Why, just Imagine we won tlie cham pionship of the American League on \ one day before the eeanon closed. "Of course, I figured on pitching Rube Waddell in the game and that erratic southpaw threw me down. The ball players were all bustng up one another's straw hats. Rube, who couid outbox anybody on the club, broke half a dozen hat* and then a certain member of the club soaked Rube with a uniform bag. It Injured the southpaw's arm. That is the truth, so far as Waddell’s failure to appear In the 1906 series Is concerned. "Mathswwon shut us out three games in that ries and McGinaity did it once. Bender ulso shut out the Giants, and I don’t mind predicting *hat he is just a» good now a?-* he was then. Plank's games were 1-0 and 3-0. I had great pitching !n that 1905 series, but Waddell’s absence handi capped me. Outplayed Giants in 1911. "Well, you want to hear something about the contest in 1911? Say, 1 don’t j*. what the American public cares to know about the Inside «'tufi on that We outplayed the Giants in everv department. “The experts thought my club would fall down in the catching end. Say, Thomas and Lapp both caught excellent hall, and 1 have a youngster now, this Schang. who will deliver the goods, no worry. “No. neither Danny Murphy nor Harry Davis will get Into this com ing series, but they will be thers with some tinvly advice. My club fought the Giants in a disabled con dition in their first battles. They were right in 1911. and. although It is doubtful whether Coomb* can corn" back, 1 will have a well-conditioned club to fight this yeai “McGraw's club looks so much bet ter than it did in 1911. that if I were a betting man 1 would say that it is an even wager between these two clubs, always supposing that each cops the pennant."

F ^ OR once in the history of base ball, the opposing pitcher posed as a pinch hitter for the enemy. And it was with two gone in the last of the ninth, the bases full, pnd the score a tie that Friend Poddy of the Pels touched off a roaring crowd of ten thousand persons with the Pinch Hit that gave the Crackers the game, and the right to win the 1913 pennant—if they could lick the Gulls four games In a row r . Mr. Peddy was the pinch hitter, as remarked above. Mr. Wally Smith was the pinch hittee. And the Pinch Hit landed on the hittee a few de grees below where he would have buttoned his suspenders, if he hail been wearing suspenders. Ordinarily, that kind of a Pinch IIit does not arouse any violent enthu- ■ slasm. But at this particular junc ture a home run over the whisky sign wouldn't have caused any more of an explosion—and wouldn’t have won the game* a bit more effectually.

"If. through the fault of either ves- siel, the other be destroyed or so in jured as to be incapable of repair, and the latter shall be free from fault, the match shall be awarded to her. “A representative «,»f each contestant will be present at the measurements of the other’s vessel and will remain on the other yacht during the races. The measurements will be made at least a week prior to the first race. “If either yacht in any way increa. c «e her spar measurements, as officially taken, she must obtain a remeasure ment by special appointment before the next race, or, failing this, must report the alteration to the measurer at the clubhouse by 10 p. m. of the day before the race following such alterations, and must arrange with him for remeasurement and. if re quired. be in the Erie Banin by 7 o'clock a. m. of the da>* of said race, and there remain until 8 o’clock a. m if necessary for purposes of inspec tion of marks or remeasurement. The Defender Not Announced. "If either yacht shall take in or re move ballast or dead weight 9he mus\ notify the measurer and be at his dis position for inspection of marks or remeasurernent as above described A measurement taken, as provided above, shall be final and not be sub jected to protest by either party." Most of the other conditions refer to what the yachts shall carry. The Shamrock IV will be the chal lenger’s vessel.

Then a few minutes later, Graves, riding the second heat of the special match race with Richards, spun off the eight laps in 1:22. Both races were wildly received by the big crowd that marked the Labor Day attendance, and, in fact, all the races were excellent and marked by fast time and hard rid ing. Renel, the French rider, scored 22 points in the Labor Day sweepstakes and was awarded the race, the scor ing being under the French system. Richards won the Australian pursuit race, which was an exciting affair. Following is a summary of the events: Southern Championship. HEATS 1 MILE, FINAL 2 MILES.

P AUL HUNTER, as every one knows, gladdened the hearts of his friends by winning the Lake Geneva tournament and many of the adjuncts thereto. Wo were not pleased because he defeated some of our other iriends, but because he plays such de serving golf and has had so mucb undeserved bad luck. It seemed high time that such good playing should meet its just deserts. Paul Hunter comes of a strong golfing family. His mother is much interested in his game. His father, C. L. Hunter, is a very good player him self, and his couttin, Robert Hunter, is a player of the highest class, who, unfortunately, haB not been seen on local links this year. It appears that a certain facility in golf playing runs in families, most notable examples, in addition to the Hunters, being the Gardners apd the Edwardls. Paul, who is almost exactly my age, has played golf since his earliest childhood, and for years has been con sidered one of our very best players. Long before I began to play in public I saw pictures of Paul Hunter, a very small lad, with a goU club in his hand, in newspapers and golf magazines. He did marvelous things in those days and is still doing them. He plays in perfect form, a fine, free, wide open, easy style, and command's one of the longe.Mt iron shots I ever saw played. He is a strong, big fellow as golfers go. and gets his strength into the ball to the fullest advantage. He seems to play, however, in the most exasperating hard luck. When he loses it is almost always by the narrowest of margins, and almost al ways there is some rather spectacular bit of misfortune connected with his defeats. For that reason as well as many others, I am sure that no one grudged Paul his “clean-up” at Lake Geneva, least of all, that good sportsman, Ken neth Edwards, the runner-up of the event. Hooray!
