Suffering From Bad Ankle, He
Plays When Ordered to Rest
and Clouts Ball Hard.
By Bi. Tailey.
C hicago, sept. 8.—Hai chas.-,
fhe 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, bui
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
?^ St .v, baaem c n and hls determination
he , Ch!Cag ° fans ,hat he
,7 ar d 1°. P> a v with the Sox. and
w ' se h's determination not to lus
fjy V? 0 * 5 who proclaimed him a sul-
ker, that gave Hal his best play of
tne year and one of the most meri
torious of hls career.
Chase Clouts Ball Hard.
?ame of ,he session at
? d ’ Ch £ SP waIked t0 ‘he pla’e
*1”!!’ He drove out four hits.
One of them was a terrific wallop
that bumped the fence in left center
and went for a home run. Another
fa 0 ? 8 drlve alonK ‘he right
foul line that netted him three bales
btill another was a line single into
center, while the final one was a hard
line smash into right. Every time
Hal came up he hit and every time he
got one he scored.
W hat Chase did Is told merely by
way of Introduction. What led up
to his doing - it forms the «ifory. Away
back in the spring he journeyed to
Bermuda with the New York High
landers While Mere he injured hls
ankle his left one. Chase was han
dicapped by that ankle. He could
not show his real speed. Tt would
give wav 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
slow up.
And he was traded to the Sot. Thev
hooted and hissed him in New* York
when he appeared with the South
hide crew. And they predicted tha*
Manager Callahan would have mucn
trouble with the star
Plays Though Crippled.
^Well. that ankle became worse and
when Cleveland was reached ti looked
a certainty that Hal would have to
get 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 Pousch
and expected to send him to the out-
fi Id and John Collins to first. You
see. Fournie ..so was on the hosplta’
sound and could not run.
When the Sox took the field for the
final nractlce Collins started for first
and Jtmiseh to the outfield.
"What's the idea?" queried Chase
of Collins.
'■Manager told me to play first,”
answered Shano.
"What’s the matter? Can’t I play
first tc suit you?” queried Chase of
Callahan.
"You can’t olav,” was the answer.
“Your ank e is too bad.”
“I’ll pla\ all right.” was Hal’s re
tort. And back in his orain 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
hls 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 the
outfielders ever got near the bail.
Do you still doubt Chaw? It’s
difficult to see how a mao 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 ail the
plaudits that came his way
Atlanta Autodrome
A Hit With Race
Fans All Over U. S.
Atlanta’s new Autodrome Is
creating a new sen^tion through
out the United States, and Is
being talked about from the
Atlantic to the Pacific. That the
Autodrome will put Atlanta before
the eyes of the world la 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
Nabor.« frofn R. B. Van Dvke. gen
eral manager for the automobile de
partment of the American Locomotlv®
Companv. of New York, says. ‘‘Your
new Autodrome will put Atlanta in
the llrrlelierht of all civilization.”
Another expert who handed a boost
to the project is Earnev Moross. who,
!n a recent letter to Frank Weldon,
« avs “The new Autodrome will un-
oub*edlv be the sensation of the asre
In the eyes of the world and will
bring more visitors to vour city than
anything else you might undertake,
and will g’ve Atlanta more public
comment than a million dollars would
buv.”
That the Autodrome will prove be
yond a doubt the biggest success pos
sible is evidenced b -1- 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 the second week
of November. All of the most famous
drivers in the United States have bee i
secured for this meet, which prom
ises to be the greatest and most sen
national autodrome races the world
has ever seen.

Players Like to Win Too Much to “Throw” Game, Says Lou Castro
PEL VICTORY PROVES BASEBALL HONEST GAME
By Lou Castro.
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 a point I want to make -
I’m glad the last game at Mobile
went the way It did, because tt 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 am concerned—and T
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 tha*
league.
It would have been mighty easy
money. If you believe the knockers of
honestv of baseball
BUT SAVANNAH WON BOTH
PENNANTS.
• • •
'Y’HERE reallv isn’t any need for
me to discuss the uselessness of
‘rving to “fix” a ball club so It will
lose, but while on this topic 1 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
nine or ten men. And suppose a
nitcher was dishonest enough to lis
ten to »suoh 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 nc
one man can “throw’’ a ball game.
• • •
O N the other hand, if the manager
himself was bought, he would
Tave to issue orders to his m^n to
let the game go—and can you imagine
a worse position for any hiupian hems'
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?
TTHERE'S nothing to this thing of
* “framine’ up” baseball
The men who are at the head of
baseball organizations may not be anv
better than any otr.er business man
—'but they are no fools, either. And
they know, as business mm, that the
first hint of "fixed baseball” would not
them out of business, and send the
greatest sport on earth on the way
of horse racing and wresvling.
Get that—these mogul persons mav
not be any more oarticular in moral-'
than other business men, but they art
not fools.
• • •
A ND 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.- 1n the pinch,
or fanning purposely, or willfully
dropping a throw?
Nothing to it.
Deep in the he of everv ball
player is that old ball pis vine insinct.
just like the instinct of the blood
hound that will follow a scent till
he drops.
Take it from me. when a ball plaver
is out there, with blood in his eyes
and sweat on hls face, and facing a
tight game in the pinch, that ball
player is going to give the best he ha*
in the shop to every play that eome>
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 ns
true as steel.
In fact, there’s so little in thin fool
talk of dishonesty in baseball that I'm
surprised that I have written this
much about it

N INETEKN - THIRTEEN, hoodoo
year, year of Democratic suc
cess, year of women voters, slit
skirts the tango, and every other
impossibility, has been most remark
able in the South from the Southern
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 19u2. he repeated, with
Little Ruck his only contender. In
1903 Charley Frank led Memphis to
victory by the narrowest margin
above Little Rock. Nobody else was
near
In 1904 Memphis repeated, with
Atlan f a 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 clos'* up in the last
two weeks of the race, but the issue
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, of 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 wns easy,
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.
• • •
B UT in this year of 1913 the Crack
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 staft to finlMh.
As far as thrills go. its equal has
never been seen.
Atlanta started with a rush, but In •
ferior pitching soon put the Cracker*
in a position that made them forlorn
hopes.
Mobile had been furnished an ex
cellent foundation for a ball club by
the Giants. Robert Mon’s hitting.
Hogg’* unexpet \ed > ffcctlveness as a
pitcher, Cavet’s Improved form, and
the stellar work of Paulet, Starr and
S;ock, 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 eariy
August.
Dobbs' race was sensational. He
had an inferior ball club.
He had one great % pitcher. Elmer
Brown, and he used him to such ad
vantage that he gradually crawled
up on Mobile until he assumed to lead
for n few brief days.
Brown was then worn to a frazzle,
and when the crucial •cries with the
Gulls came he was helpless.
Montgomery was routed.
Even the courageous Dobbs lost
heart and from that time on Mont
gomery was an easy team for the sec
ond division clubs.
Elberfeld, with Chattanooga, off to
a bad start, fought well throughout
the season, and although he was never
an actual pennant possibility, he was
always to be feared, and he was al
ways feared.
The same could be said of Birming
ham. Moles worth suffered from the
slump of McGilvray in hitting and
the absence of the swatsmanship of
Almeida or he would have been just
as good as he was when he won the
pennant. But these factors were
missing and the Barons were lucky to
finish in tha first division.
• • •
A TLANTA never really began its
race until the final month of the
season. ,
Then Bill Smith drew his baton.
Then the spur>» were applied.
Then the team showed.
The finish is dramatic enough to
be the background of a magazine
story.
It will live in Southern League
history.

New Champs to Play Wednesday
•F#«l* •!*•+
Benefit Game at Ponce DeLeon
A H soon as it was a nettled mat
ter that New Orleans had beat
the Gulls yesterday afternoon
and that nothing could take the gon
falon of 1913 from the Crackers, Billy
Smith, the celebrated ‘‘crab mana
ger,” made a wild dash for an out
going train and hauled therefrom
nearly a dozen Atlanta players who
were starting for home.
‘‘Come back, champs!” shouted Bill.
“There’s work for you to do.”
This is the Job:
Wednesday afternoon, at 3 o’clock,
at Ponce DeLeon Park, the cham
pions of 1913 will be on exhibition to
tHeir admiring friends in a game for
the championship of Atlanta, which
is the championship city of the
South.
Wallop Smith will captain one
team, and Rlvington Blsland, com
monly known as the Best Shortstop
in the World, will head the other, and
it is going to be some desperate bat
