ITH the last echoes of u rou#- ing baseball season dying away, and not yet extinct, like the dodo and Pholly Murphy's bluff and some other tilings', »uch a switching of managerial talent is under way in the Southern I/eague as very likely never was witnessed before. One would fancy all the contracts expired about th<? name tick of the clock the same tick having Just ticked. Oddly, enough, too, there will not be a single little stranger in the new deal. All will be old and well-remembered maps. • • • THE Atlanta club, of course. Is 1 standing pat. Going a bit fur ther, In fact. That little contract with William Andrew Smith originally was dated to expire with the croaking of the 1914 season. But when Billy Smith projected the Atlanta club from the lowest rung on the ladder to the pinnacle of a pennant in one year— customarily known under such cir cumstances as a "short” year, al though it is, calendarically speaking, Jurt as long as any other year when Bill Smith did this, the directors k hauled out the seldom-used Silver Plater and presented on same a cod icil or extension to the contract, by which same was to run through, and including the year of grace 1915. • • • CO Atlanta will have Billy Smith again next year, and the year after that; and if Billy doesn’t win a gonfalon either of those years, he still will have a batting average of .500 per cent, which, in the Pennant League, ia considered pome what bet ter than fair. Billlken*. At least, the present lay out looks that way. Chattanooga, having lost Kid Kl- berfeld, will welcome Johnny with open arms, while ('holly Frank, hav ing had scandalously little luck run ning his old ball club this year, is equally glad to retire majestically to the presidency of the Pelicans and from that altitude watch the Pepper Kid Injecting paprika into the old machine witere It will do the most good. VTOBILE, Memphis, *** Montgomery and Chattanooga, New Orleans, then, will start under different man agers In 1914, and the race will be an interesting one to watch, for prac tically all of the new bosses have a close line on other clubs in the circuit—and an overweening ajnbition to lick them, whlfh will probably give rise to .» highly-complicated and Interesting situation. All of which is good for the fans and the Grand Old Game. W" ; . note with pleasure that the Mobile fans, wiio put up a sub stantial purse for the Gulls when they looked sure to win the pennant, are going through with It, and will slip It to them in the hour of defeat. Every once In a while, the fan bunch comes through with a glitter of sportsmanship entirelv worthy of the game th6y patronize. Pelky Quits Burns; Brands Him Taker PORTLAND. ORE., Sept. 12. — Stung by a guilty conscience and smarting under alleged mistreatment by Tommy Burns, Arthur Pelky, world’s heavyweight title claimant, to-day canceled Bums’ managerial contract and simultaneously unbos omed .i confession. In ;t signed state ment Pelky makes the charge that he and Burns,'the former at one time world’s champion, faked their six- round light at Calgary. March 26. Pelky alleges that Burns lured him Weft from Chatham, Ont.. and then finding him broke, forced him into a “fixed” match and staged night re hearsals of the battle in a garret. The expose was drafted In Portland several days ago. signed and sealed by Pelky and deli vert'd over for re lease .September 9. The breaking of the seal to-day revealed the con tents. Pelky stopped In Portland en route to Calgary to close accounts w ith Burns. It was at Calgary, anu under Burns’ wing, that Pelky fought Luther McCarty, the white champion. McCarty expired shortly after Pelky knocked him out. "Our six-round fight was called a draw,” says Pelky in his confession, speaking of his» match with Bums. “But we had it all ‘framed’ up. I could have whipped him easily, but he wanted to make a good showing before his friends' there, and made me take two knock-downs to one for him. Prom that time on he made me virtually a slave to his w'hims.’* Overall Explains Minor Hurling BLANTON BLATS +#*!* *!••*!• “As Hard as Major Pitching” TIEPENBfl il SEMI-FINALS w.

I t HE difference between big league pitching and minor league work is very slight Of course It i* hard to win in the big leagues, but or other cities nr** going to try a new deal. Beginning with the runner-up. Mo bile, which was parlous near to dy ing the bunting this year. It appears that Sir Miguel Finn is tired of the meddling of directors, or the direc tors arc tired of Sir Miguel’s being tired of being meddled with, or both, and 'there Is going to be a change. Sir Miguel is going to take a whirl with tm Memphis Turtles, who are alated to lose Bill Bernhard. And in place of Sir Miguel in OulTvtlle there will be a fine little manager with a square chin, who, it appears to us, certainly would not have been selected by the aforesaid directors with a view to working a meddle on him. His name is Bobby Gtlks. He for merly managed the old Shreveport club, and this season he was a scout for Cleveland, also lust season, and the season before. Also, he is a good old scout—and a prime manager. • • • O PR old friend Johnny Dobbs is going from Montgomery to Chattanooga, and Captain Bill El- wert will get his Job piloting th* CHANGE Suburban Schedule Central of Georgia Railway Effective September 14, suburban train No. 108 will leave Atlanta 6:15 p. m. instead of 6 10 p. m. Arrive Jonesboro 7:15 p. m. Adv \ the pitcher of major league caliber who Is under the impression that he can win with comparative ease in the minors is not fully cognizant of the conditions that prevail in the minors. You have to work just as hard In the minor leagues to win as you do in faster company. I have heard several big league pitchers of little or no minor league experience assume an air of brag gadocio in regard to minor league pitching. They were imbued with thf idea that it is Just us easy to win in the lower leagues as it Is to pluck strawberries in June. A few of these pitchers will see the folly of their talk when they are turned back. Different Baseball. But, to get back to the distinction between big league pitching and minor league work—it Is simply this —they play different baseball, and. as a result the pitcher has to adapt him self to the style of hi>» team. In the big leagues they play more for one run than they do in the minors, and this puts more of a burden on the pitchers. Then, again, the big league pitcher has better batters to face— men who are superior to the class of batters in the minor league. A pitcher has to bring into play all the cunning at his command to fool some of them. Control Necessary. In the big leagues a pitcher has to have control. That is the most im portant requisite. It is the first point that the managers look fer If the pitcher is wild In moat cases* ho has a hard time to get a proper trial, but on the other hand, if he shows con trol he is in line for immediate work The big league pitcher has to be able to stick the ball over the plate at any and all times as the batters wh< face you are under Instructions not to hit at any bad pitched balls. I have seen minor league batters hit with two and nothing and three and one In fact, it f» a common oc currence; but you will not see it in the big league If you have two and nothing on the batter he will make \ you pitch the next two right he w ill not offer at them. Curves in Minors. Therefore, It is essential that the big league pitchers have splendid control. A good fast ball and control is ail that is necessary. In the minors it i» more curve ball pitching. I never saw ?*> many curve balls in my life until 1 invaded the minors. Walter Johnson Is a notable ex ample of the big league pitcher. He can pitch the ball any place ha wants to. Johnson rarely ever uses a curve ball. Christy Mathewson is the same way, though be is using more curves this reason than he ever did. The pitching in the big league i? a trifle harder and the impositions on the heaver more severe, but you can tak» it from me that w orking in the minors is no sinecure. I think that a successful pitcher in the minor leagues can win in the big leagues. Branch Rickey Will Lead Lowly Browns ST. LOUIS, Sept 12.—Branch Rickey and Colonel Robert Hedges, owner of the Browns, have come to terms anti the former will pilot the destinies of the team the rest of the season. Rickey will take formal charge following the draft ing meeting held at Cincinnati Septem ber 15. The terms of Rickey's contract are kept secret, but it is believed a bonus was given. Rickey was offered the ntah- agersnlp the other day when George Stovall was ousted, but held out for a share of the club stock, which was re fused. R.

The death of Coach Cunningham’s wife and his absence In Kentucky for the past several days caused many of the players who were to be here on the 10th to delay their arrival several daya. By Monday there will be practically all the material on hand. But how much of the old team is to return and how promising the new men will pan out Is yet unsolved. Both classes seem rather slow in reporting. The players out in uniform yester day were Captain McWhorter. Dor sey, last year’s sub quarter, Fullback Thompson, Sub Haifa Broyles and Da vidson. Among the new men were Howard McWhorter, from Gordon, where he was captain; Thrash, also of Gordon; Sldberry, of Riverside, and the Smith brothers of Riverside. Assistant Coach Ketron, who is to .have charge of the line, Is expected this week from Washington. Pea cock, captain of last year’s team, is already on hand and will take charge of the subs. Training quarters have been opened In Lumpkin Hall, where a training table is being inetalled. Practice will be held every afternoon and the work will grow more strenuous as more of the men report. Paddock. Henderson and Malont are expected by Monday. Hitchcock will be on hand for an end, while Powell is now on his way from Eu rope. where he has been bicycling all summer. Georgia loses for a certainty this year Bowden. Covington, Peacock, Lucas, Arnett, Harrell, Wheatley and Sancken. The schedule Is a heavy one, North Carolina, Virginia and L. S. U. being on the list. The L. S. U. game, how ever, is to be canceled, leaving Octo ber 11 an open date. BigGI Core* !n 1 to 5 dayi unnatural discharges.
