4 C3 Ji TUT HE IS IT Sure Jeff Can Sail, but i How Far ?--- By “Bud ” Fisher Suffering From Bad Ankle, He Plays When Ordered to Rest and Clouts Ball Hard, By Bill Bailey. C hicago, sept. 8.—Hal chase, the White Sox first sacker is quite certain that the goddess that rules baseball is an admirer of gameness. The first baseman maybe wouldn’t make such a confession, but Manager Callahan, who entertains the same notion, is willing, and in Man ager Callahan's present state of mind he would take oath upon it. Cor it was the gameness of the ?o S sb b nTT n his domination wanted * the Chtcago fans that he wanted to play with the Sox and iff",L SP hiS detorminatton not to jus- w " ho Proclaimed him a sul ci’ * hat Kaye Hal his best play of tne jear and one of the most meri torious of his career. Chase Clouts Ball Hard. nl n game of the session at eland. Chase walked to the pla’e OnJ ’Ttw He rirove out four hits. ihfi K f the ? 1 was a terrific wallop that bumped the fence in left center and went for a home run. Another was a vicious drive along the right foul line that netted him three bases, h'till another was a line single into center, while the final one was a hard line smash into right. Every time Ha! came up he hit and every time he pot one he scored. " hat Chase did is told merely by way of introduction. What led up to his doing it forms the story. A wav back in the spring: he journeyed to Bermuda with the New York High- landers While i oere he injured hi** ankle his left one. Chase was han dicapped by that ankle. He could not show his real speed. It would pne way on him. But in New York they thought it merely an excuse They said that Chase was “laying down on Chance that caused him to How up. And he was traded to the Sox. Thev hooted and hissed him in New York when he appeared with the South Side crew. And they predicted that .Manager Callahan would have muen trouble with the star. Plays Though Crippled. Well, that ankle became worse and when Cleveland was reached it looked a certainty that Hal would have to pet out of the game. Did he? He did not. He played first base al though it was torture. He didn’t walk to the Sox bench between in nings during the Labor Day games. It meant-'too much pain. He hobbled after the balls hit in his direction. But he stuck. Manager Callahan wired for Rousch and expected to send him to the out field and John Collins to first. You see. Fournie hjso was on the hospita’ squad and could not run. When the Sox took the field for the final practice Collins started for first and Rousch to the outfield. “What’s the idea?” queried Chase of Collin®. “Manager told me to play first,” answered Shano. “What’s the matter? Can’t I play first to suit you?” queried. Chase of Callahan. “You can’t play,” was the answer. “Your ankle is too bad.” “I’ll play, all right,” was Hal’s re tort. And back in his brain was the thought that he would show those ready to say “I told you so.” Ankle a Handicap. • Oh, yes. Chase played. He wasn’t his old self. Every time he stepped he limped and it was very noticeable as he ran out his hits. His homer was a terrific wallop and had he been free of pain he would have been in the vicinity of the plate before th? outfielders ever got near the ball. Do you still doubt Chaw? It’s difficult to see how a man could give a stronger proof of his faithfulness And don’t you believe that the fate that rules the game is fair? For Chase certainly deserved all the plaudits that came his way Atlanta Autodrome A Hit With Race Fans All OverU.S. Atlanta’s new Autodrome is creating a new sensation through out the United States, and Is being talked about Ymm the Atlantic to the Pacific. That the Autodromo will put Atlanta before the eyes of the world is evidenced by correspondence from Barney Oldfield, now on the Pacific coast to Wiley West. Oldfield says. “Your Autodrome is being talked about with much enthu siasm on the coast.” Recent letters received bv Mark Nabors from R. B. Van Dyke, gen eral manager for tbe automobile de partment of the American Locomotlv* 3 Company, of New York. says. “Your new Autodrome will put Atlanta in the limelight of all civilization?” Another expert who handed a boost to the project is Earnev Morons. who, In a recent letter to Frank Weldon, says. J’The new Autodrome will un doubtedly be the sensation of the age in the eyes of the world and will bring more visitors to your city- than anything else you might undertake, and will give Atlanta more public comment than a million dollars would buy.” That the Autodrome will prove be yond a doubt the biggest success pos sible is evidenced bv the fact that over 200 of Atlanta’s leading busi ness men have already subscribed to stock and are behind it in every sense of the word to push it with all rapid ity to completion. The first big meet is scheduled for three davs during th<^ second week of November. All of the most famous drivers in the United States have been secured for this meet, which prom ises to be the greatest and most sen sational autodrome races the world has ovt»r seen, — ‘3AY, *A<JYT, >*M<vr DO YOU YMlMy;?

M IKE FINN is a warm personal friend of mine, and I think a lot of him. I thought he was going to win a pennant this year, sure, and while I’m true to Atlanta, I would rather have seen the rag go to Mike than to anybody else outside of Billy Smith. But here’s u point I want to make: I’m glad the last game at Mobile went the way it did. because it proved that baseball, the best and biggest sport in the world, also is the clean est; that there is not, never has been, and never will be, dishonesty in base ball. • * * CO far as I atn concerned—and I ^ have been playing the game six teen years—I never have had a doubt of the honesty of baseball, and I never have seen anything to make me think there might be a doubt of it. In this last series. I have heard fel lows I supposed were true fans and good sports say that in their opinion the race would be MADE to end in a tie, so that a special series could be played off. for the money that would be in it for both clubs. Well, if the result of the game in Mobile yesterday doesn’t nail those opinions for what they are worth, I don’t know anything about baseball,' or honesty', or anything else. * * * T AKE another instance; In the South Atlantic League this season, Savannah won both pen nants. If the directors of this club had been out for the money alone, they certainly would have “pulled” a little In that second race, and there by made possible the seven-game se ries that is played extra when two different clubs win the flag in that league. It would have been mighty easy money, if you believe the knockers of honestv of baseball BUT SAVANNAH WON BOTH PENNANTS. • * * 'J’HERE really isn’t any need for me to discuss the uselessness of trying to “fix” a ball club so it will lose, but while on this topic I would just like to say a few words from a ball player’s standpoint. Nobody ever had any luck trying to “fix” a game, and nobody ever will. Nobody would dare try to fix nine or ten men. And suppose a pitcher was dishonest enough to lis ten to quch a proposal—as soon as he showed signs of going bad or playing off, he would be yanked with out delay. The same applies to a catcher or any other player—and no one man can “throw” a ball game. * * * O X the other hand, if the manager himself was bought, he would have to issue orders to his men to let the game go—and can you imagine a worse position for any human being than that of a manager with his men knowing such a thing about him, and absolutely without respect for him. and always having something “on” him. as long as he was in baseball, or on the face of the earth? T’HKRE’S nothing to this thing of * framing up” baseball. The men who are at the head of baseball organizations may not be anv better than any otner business man -but they are no fools, eitner. And they know, as busines.-i men. that the first hint of “fixed baseball” would not them out of business, and send th. greatest sport on earth on the way of horse racing and wrestling. Get that—these mogul persons may not be arty more particular in moral-’ than other bysiness men. but they are not fools. * • • A VI) one more viewpoint—just that ** of the plain, every-day ball play er. out there in the field, or at bat. Talk about booting or_? in the pine 1 ?, or fanning purposely, or willfully dropping a throw? Nothing to it. Deep in the he of every hall player is that old t »!1 plaving instinct. just like the instinct of the blood hound that will follow a scent till he drops. Take it from me, when a ball player is out there, with blood in his eyes and sweat on his face, and facing a tight game in the pinch, that ball player is going to give the best he has in the shop to every play that comes up—because he can’t help it! No man ever need tell me a true ball player will let one go by in the pinch, for money or anything else. It’s the old instinct—and it’s as true as steel. In fact, there’s so little in this fool talk of dishonesty in baseball that I’m surprised that I have written this much about it. PLAY BY PLAY STORY OF PEL GULL BATTLE First Inning.

Brunswick Seeks Major Team Visits BRUNSWICK, GA.. Sept. 8. — Brunswick is going after a big league ball club for the spring training quar ters. During the next week the at tention of every manager of the major leagues will be called to the advan tages offered by Brunswick. George Stallings of the Boston Nationals, and Frank Navifi, • the owner of the Detroit American Leaguers, were in this city last winter and they botr expressed themselves as pleased with Brunswick as a training place. With a good ball park, a hotel ca pacity accommodating all the play ers, a climate unequaled, and every other advantage, there is no reason why Brunswick should not secure at leant one big league club during the coming year, and the BrunswicK Board of Trade will take the matter up with the managers of all the clubs. CHANGE IN RACING CARD. MACON* Sept. 8.—A change has been made in the racing program of the Georgia State F*alr that will be of interest to racing men throughout the South. The free-for-all race has been changed to a 2:20 trot, three heats The winner of this race will receive a purse of $1,000. It is an nounced by the Fair Association that public betting will not be tolerated at the race*. RETAINS TENNIS TITLE OF L L 0. C ARLETON SMITH retained his title as tennis champion of the Atlanta Athletic Club by de feating the 1913 challenger. E. V’. Carter, and Bryan Grant and Carter won the club championship in dou bles by beating Carl Ramspeck and J. K. Orr, Jr., in the closing matches of the club tournament, which^ has just ended. The tourney was full of interest and close matches, and there was more than #ne upset in the prelimi nary dope that always precedes a club meet, where players of known and established rating are entered. Carter was the winner of the tour nament in singles, defeating E. S. Mansfield In the finals,* 8-6. 2-6, 7-5. after a great struggle. He gave Smith a grand bhttle in the opening set of the challenge match, but the champiop overmatched him from that point on, though every set was sharp ly contested. The scores were 7-5, 6-2, 6-2. Grant and Carter got away with their first two sets against Ramspeck and Orr in comparatively easy fash ion, but encountered a desperate re sistance in the last set, when the younger players rallied and by some of the most brilliant tennis seen on the A. A. C. courts this year forced their veteran opponents to go the limit to win. The scores were 6-2, 6-3, 7-5. Baseball Summary. SOUTHERN LEAGUE. Final Standing. W. L. Pet. I W. L. Pet.

Crackers, Gulls, Lookouts, Barons and Billikens All Factors in 1913 Race SOUTHERN SEES FIRST FIVE CLUBFINISH By Fuzzy Woodruff." N ineteen - thirteen, hoodoo year, year of Democratic suc cess, year of women voters, slit skirts, the tango, and every other impossibility, has been most rema’Yk- able in the South from the Southerr, League baseball race. Never .has such a battle been fought. Never will such another be waged. When the league was reorganized in 1901, Newt Fisher galloped in with Nashville. In 1902, he repeated, with Little Rock his only contender. Jn 1903 Charley Frank led Memphis to victory by the narrowest margin above Little Rock. Nobody else was near. In 1904 Memphis repeated, with Atlanta crowding, but only New Or leans was in sight. In 1905 Frank and his Pelicans made a runaway race, with Ike Durrett’s Montgomery club finishing close up in the last two weeks of the race, but the i«nue was never in doubt. In 1906 Harry Vaughn won, with Birmingham on the chin strap, and in 1907 Bill Smith came in pretty much the same way with Atlanta after a grueling finish with Charley Babb, df Memphis. In 1908 Nashville, under Bill Bern hardt, nosed out New Orleans in the final game, but nobody else was close. Atlanta's victory in 1909 was easy, i ; and in 1910, New Orleans was never crowded In 1911 Montgomery and Birmingham each gave the Pelicans a battle, but neither ever happened to be seriously dangerous. In 1912 the Barons won as they pleased. * * * D I T in this year of 1913 the Craek- ers won from five teams. From the drop of the flag until the wire was crossed there were five teams in the race. Atlanta, Mobile, Chattanooga, Birmingham and Montgomery were factors from start to finish. As far as thrills go. its equal has never been seen. Atlanta started with a rush, but In ferior pitching soon put the Crackers in a position that made them forlorn hopes. Mobile had been furnished an ex cellent foundation for a ball club by the Giants. Robertson’s hitting. Hogg’s unexpected effectiveness as a pitcher. Cavet’s improved form, and the stellar work of Paulet, Starr and Stock, made the Gulls the odds-on favorites. * • • T HE Gulls assumed the lead In May. They were never headed until Johnny Dobbs made his sensational bid for honors in July and early August. Dobbs' race was sensational. He had an inferior ball club He had one great pitcher.

It iR definitely settled that Bernhard will not return here, al though he has proven a satisfactory manager. What the local officials want is a man with major league connections. Hence the offers to Dobbs or Finn. It is expected that something definite as regards the managership will be made public this week, as Finn or Dobbs is due to visit President Cole man to-day or to-morrow. piyde Wares and Jack Manning, members of the Montgomery club, left last night for New York, where they are to join the St. Louis Browns to-morrow. Secretary Adolph Jacobson, of the Southern League, who was a visitor to-day, dates that there is a move ment on foot in Little Roc to inter est the league club owners in a cam paign to oust Montgomery from the league. A1 Chichester, an Arkansas baseball enthusiast, is getting up the petition, which, according to the sec retary, will be submitted to the va rious magnates during the next two weeks. The Little Rock sportsmen are prepared to offer $15,000 for the franchise and state they will pay $10,000 to put in a winning club. SAIER IS “U N LUCK I EST MAN.” Vic Saier, the Cub first baseman, thinks he's the unluckiest man in base ball It had been arranged for the Cubs to play in loosing, Mich., Vic’s home town, one day last week. The fans purchased a loving cup and filled it with currency and silver and planned to pre sent it to Saier The day before it rained in St. Louis and the Cubs had to play the St. I^tuis game the next day the day they were scheduled to play with Lansing. There’s no further chance of the Cubs playing in Lansing this season and Vic’ has a 'bunch'’ that he'll never g*t the cup or its much de sired cop tents.
