THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. LOSS OF ITS AUBURN TEAM Five Linemen and Two Great Backfield Stars of 1912 Will Be Missing. By Mike Donahue. (Coach Auburn Eleven.) A uburn, ala., sept. 11.—with new students coming In and matriculating in unprecedent- Auburn begun to ^ thou ehts toward erti ' The Prospects in gen- br thf, nd H*. e P roba ble return of this t .u* rtleular p]aypr are the ques- , over *adow everything Th e players that are already cnntt h . a / e be 5Y n 11 practice, whicii consists mainly of forward passing and punting. Auburn will have some heavy losses to make good in the non-return, for various reasons, of some of her most famous stars Any line would be hard 7i t „^ y A be * 0PS of su cb players as Lamb, Meadows, Burns. Pitts ar.d Lockwood, and any backfield would feel the loss of Major’s punting and Ressjjac s line plunging. Of these Lamb and Major are the tonly ones that have played their time out. Ressijac, Burns. Meadows and •Lockwood have graduated. Pitts has gone to Annapolis, where he will make the Navy a good man. Lock- wood may return, and it is to be de voutly hoped by all Auburn support ers that he will return to bolster up any weak spots that may be in the Auburn line. His weight, experience and quickness would be of invaluable help. Some New Men Useful. These losses seem enough to wreck any team, but there were some good men on the scrubs last year, who were Ineligible because they lacked the necessary number of units and with some varsity substitutes that will be ready for regular berths this year that will make Auburn’s team com* up to the usual standard. There ap pears to be some new material com ing in that will be useful the first year, which is something unusual in Auburn’s football history. Cleveland, of Mobile; Hairston, of Marion, and Prendergast. of Texas, are some of the most prominent mentioned. The severity of the football sched ule and the reports coming from the different hostile camps are what is giving Auburn the most concern just now. Of the eight S. I. A. A. games on the schedule, six are hard and they come on consecutive Saturdays. The first two, with Mercer and Florida, might be said to be good practice games, but that can not be said of any of the others. After these two games, which are on the campus, the team journeys to Clemson to play the “Tigers” on their native soil. The Carolinians are .claiming a heavy and strong team this year, which means trouble for all opponents. The next game is with Mississippi A. & M in Birmingham, and everyone knows, by past experience, what to expect there. They lose Williams, but to the average layman it i?> hard to see any loss there, otherwise, they claim 'that they will be much stronger. Then a journey will be made to Mobile, where Louisiana State Uni versity will be played. They return every player of last year’s team, to gether with the captain, who was in jured most of last year, and they are not at all bashful in their claims. Auburn players reported them last year as having the best looking ma terial in the South. No chance to ease up there. Hear Tech Is Strong. The annual game with the Black smiths. of Atlanta, comes next, and in their reports they are already con testing the Southern championship ■with Vanderbilt. They have corralled a lot of prep stars and they will un doubtedly have one of the most for midable aggregations ever turned out by Tech. On November 15 comes the Commo dores to battle with Auburn in Bir mingham, Last year’s r.ame still ran kles and they are vowing dire things. No further comment is necessary. The following Saturday Georgia will be played in Atlanta. They hav^ lost a good many players, but they still have McWhorter. The chances are. however, that they will not he quite as formidable as last year, when they slipped one over on the over confident Auburnltes. On the whole, it appears as if the teams in the S. I. A. A. would be more closely matched than usual, and some sterling sport ought to be the result with the interest far greater than ever before.

Bill’s first idea was that the promotion of his alleged candidacy was a big joke. Yesterday he decided the joke wa9 being carried too far. So Bill, who is an open and onward sort of man, came right out with his side of it. and anybody who can un derstand the United States language will have no difficulty in finding out where Bill stands. “This is all blamed foolishness." began William Andrew. "It may be more than that; I’m not prepared to saw But it’s blamed foolishness, to say the least and the best about it. “Me in politics? Why. here I am 42 year?i old, and I never even voted but once in my life. I don’t know anything about politics, and 1 don’t want to know anything about politics. Baseball is enough of a business for me, and until I get through with base ball you can bet I’m not going to mix ur> in any other business—particu larly politics." Bill admits that he registered as a voting citizen of Atlanta. “But that had nothing to do with that Sixth Ward Councilman thing." Bill say a "Atlanta has paid me the compliment of keeping me to manage the Atlanta baseball club for a couple of years. This will be my home for that length of time, and it seemed to me only right that I should be a full- fledged. regular citizen of Atlanta. I might even vote. although I don't know of anything to vote about very- much now. "But so far as running for any of fice, or letting myself be run for any office, or getting mixed up in politics in any way—why, you just say for Bill Smith that his entire business is keeping Atlanta supplied with a reg ular ball club, and that will keep him out of politics and other mischief, and you can bet on it." BOXING News of the Ring Game Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion, is coming Chicago-way to give Charlie White a chance to show’ his worth against a kingpin battler. * • ♦ Willie to-day' wired Nate Lewis, man ager of White, that he would leave Fris co on Friday or Saturday for the East, stopping off in Chicago long enough to look over the ground and go ten rounds with White. * * • Milwaukee is ready to take the match, three of the promotes already having accepted Lewis’ offer. Ben Steinel like ly will get the match if he can con vince Ritchie to fight on a percentage. • * * White is one of the best boys in the middle West and. pound for pound, he is considered the best lightweight in that class. * * * Charlie never goes more than 129 pounds, though he takes on boys at 134 pounds at 3 o’clock. * • • White and Ritchie would draw at least $25,000 in the Beer City. * * • Packey McFarland is going to get Into action again. His manager. Emil Thiry. to-dav accepted a match with Young Nitchie. of Philadelphia, and, while no club has yet booked the affair, it is al most certain Kenosha will close to-day. • * • Nitchie has fought all of the best boys in and around New York and he believes he can hold Packey to a stlfr game.

Ben Steinel, matchmaker of the South Side Athletic Club, of Milwaukee, who Is staging the Eddie McGoorty-Frank Klaus match on September 22, has de cided to give a championship belt to the winner, making the match a sort of an elimination contest.

Mr. Bodie will now take hie foun tain pen in hand and write "The Worst Bonehead Play I Ever Made.” While Ping does most of his bat ting after the game, he can point with pride to the fact that he is the only .600 batter in the American League. Looking over the results of the Sonder yacht races one is convinced that as yachtsmen the Germans are good skat players. It might interest Al Palzer to learn that farm hands are in great demand in Kansas. Not that it causes us any worry, but it is almost time for someone to break in with the discovery that Jim Jeffries was doped. WHEREFORE? Are you out upon a strike, Heine Zimf Tell us, for the love of Mike, Heine Zim. You have been so meek and tame Several days have went and came Since they chased you from the game, Heine Zim. Napoleon Lajoie denies the report that he will enter politics. He refuses to see his reputation blackened after an honorable career of lo! these many years. One of the beauties of the closing of the baseball season is that the ath letes do not have to visit St. Louis any more. A power boat is a useful little con trivance except for the fact that it spends most of its time on the bottom of the lake. It is said that football will be an improved aame this season. It is also said that tnere was plenty of room for improvement. WHITE HOPES. There arc those who like to see a pair of heavies in a scrap As they flop around the ring and try to spoil each other's map. There arc those who like to sec a fight between a pair of hopes As they stumble on each other's feet and move around like'mopes. There are those who like to see a giant flopped upon his back, But I'd rather see two freight ears knock each other off the track. To our jaded notion, a scrap be tween two heavyweights is about as inspiring as a foot race between two cows. \ BRUTALITY. "ft is a brutal, vicious game,” he said. And from the football field his motor sped. His auto ran across a stranger's neck And left him there, a shattered, hope less wreck. And. as hr left the stranger there for dead.. “This football is a brutal game he said. I T seems there is no end to football material at Tech this season. New men are reporting every day now. Two cracks from Louisville prep schools* will lie here in a few days. They are. Mallory, a fast backfield man. and Murphree. a big tackle, who is also a punter and gofd baseball Ditcher. They are both corking men and will give somebody a hard fight for a place on the team Gene Hill and Carl Stone. two old Tech baseball stars, got busy and dug these men up down in Louisville. Two moic new men from Chatta nooga are coming to Tech Patter son. one of the men. and all-city cen ter from Chattanooga High School., is said to be a good man, while Kander, the other man, a speedy halfback from the University of Chattanooga, circle* the ends almost at will. Kan der is also a trackman and baseball player. Both men will report for prac tice this week. There are two other men, who, if secured, arc sure to beat *omebody out of a place on the varsity. One of them is a big fullback who punts 55 and 60 yards with ease. He stand* 6 feet 2 and weighs about 195 pounds. He is some man. The other is a heavy lineman with a lot of expe rience. This season bids fair to be one of the greatest in the history of Tech, Boy Wins Quarter Swimming Title NEW YORK, Sept. 11.- The 440- vard national swimming champion ship was captured at Travers Island by J. C. Wheatley, a New York youth, who entered the competition unat tached and who has never figured In a chaYnpionship meet before. Wheat- ley had to beat such stars as Gilbert Tomlinson, the boy wonder of Phila delphia, and the veteran L. B. Good win. Wheatley’s time was 6 minutes 4 2-5 seconds. At the end of the race Goodwin, who finished fourth, announced his retirement from swimming Wells Knocked Out Moir in 5 Rounds LONDON, Sept. 11.—Bombardier Wells, heavyweight champion of Eng land, last night retrieved his previous defeat at the hands of “Gunner" Jim Moir. the ex-chamnion, by knocking him out in the fifth round. The fight took place in Canterbury Music Hall. No More Pop-Pop Racing Until a Week From Next Saturday GRAVES, RICHARDS AND SWARTZ WIN FINALS T HE final performance of the mo torcycle racers at the Motor drome before their trip to Chattanooga was marked by desper ate riding by all hands, and it is no*, to be charged to prudence that the squad was able to make the trip all in one section to the Mountain City, where the members will race during the G. A. R. reunion. Morty Grave.* arid Tex Richards had it out again, and Morty and his Excelsior rather put it over Tex. The latter, however, took hold of another leg on Bill Stoddard's cup when Vie copped the Southern championship race for the second time. Tex has only to win once more in this event and the cup will be his—unless some body sneaks in and wins it three times in a row before he can put it over. Harry Schwartz had a rather easy time in the sweepstakes, run under the French point system. He was first in all three heats, for a score of 3ft points. Lockner was second each time, and made IS, while Glenn achieved two third places and Renel got the other. Baseball Summary NATIONAL LEAGUE. Games To-day.

C. Frank Cup Fund Up to $75 Now John D. Harrington announces the growth of the Charley Frank fun 1 for a loving cup to be $75. "1 think we can get a suitable token of our appreciation with a fund of $100.’" Mr. Harrington said yesterday, "and that is the aim l have set for this collection. The fans certainly seem to want to do something for the Dutchman who had so much to do with the pennant coming to Atlanta. ’ The riders will be back in Atlanta a week from Sunday, after which the races will be run Saturday after noons. Manager Hudson Is persuad ed that the afternoons will be cool enough now for racing In the day time. When the bunch comes back, there will be several new faces, and among them will be some of the best men who ever whirled around a saucer tra<k. Samuelson brothers, from Salt Lake City. Mike Caflrella, from Rome, Italy, and Chappelle, from Brighton Beach, hailed as the champion of all motorcycle riders, are among those due to race in Atlanta in addition to the fast men already here.
