THE ATLANTA. GEORGIAN AND NEWS. T GARDEN tin By Chick Evans. C HICAOO, Sept. 12.—In the re- cent National Championship at Garden City there were many noticeable upset* of form and the prophets were more at fault than usual. The course was very difficult for the Western players, becauwe they have nothing: like it at homo and for that reason found it hard to over come the peculiar difficulties it pre sented. The failure of Mason Phelps K L. Ames and W. J. MacDonald, of < alumet, as well a* the high scores of other Western players, might be attributed to unaccustomed play over a course vastly dissimilar to those in the Chicago district, but the fail ure of Oswald Kirkby. Gilman Tif fany and other first-class Eastern players, however, seems to prove that the course presented very serious In trinsic difficulties. The Garden City links is not for the wooden club. There are few shots from the tee in which the good iron player did not have the better of it. for the course J* so severely trapped, the way so narrow and straight, that the least deviation from the lin* meets with the heaviest punishment. Every shot must be well placed and the golfers play under a heavy strain. The fact that no British players entered, except Mr. Maude, who en tered as a matter of courtesy (being here on business and out of prac tice) was much regretted by the Americans. We were partly consoled, however, by the appearance at Gar den City of two famous golf writers. Bernard Darwin, whose name has a strangely familiar sound, and Henry Leach, who has visited us before and is always welcome. This is Mr. Dar win's first visit to America, and hs Is making himself extraordinarily popular here. I am glad to announce that he Intends to visit Chicago, and I know there will be much pleasur able anticipation. Before Journeying Westward, Mr. Darwin will go to Brookline to view the open championship. That event will be one of the greatest ever known in America and we are all hoping that our own players will make a good showing against the foreign in vaders. In any event most of us can learn much from the British and French professionals, and it is a big help to one’s own game to see how the great players make their good shots. If we can see the game? and read what the various golf writers say about them we shall be doubly blessod, but if we can only read about them we can still find both pleasure and profit. It may be of advantage to learn what the writers of each nationality think of the players of other lands.

Sept 12.—Four of the leading heavyweights met Manager Gib son in the Garden yesterday and vainly tried to arrange matches. Gunboat Smith was ready to sign articles to box Frank Mdfran, but the latter refused to post a $1,000 forfeit which caused a hitch. Sam Langford and Joe Jeannette were apparently ready to agree upon terms, but when Gibson produced pen and ink Langford's manager, Joe Woodman, could not be found. Gibson will make another attempt to-day to bring Smith and Moran together, also to sign up the Tar Babv and his ancient rival.

Mur phy, boss of the Cubs. It happened yesterday, when Ed Reulbach, one of his cast-off twirlers, now pitching with the Dodgers, had a rather easy time defeating his old-time teammates. • * • The Tigers hammered the offerings of three Red Sox twirlers to all portions of the lot yesterday, clubbing out twenty safeties for a total of fifteen runs, while Dauss, the Tiger pitcher, held the Bos tonians to five hits and two runs. • • * The Yankees gave McHaJe, the new twirl er. gilt-edged support yesterday, with the result that tne New Yorkers shut out the Browns and once more are on the point of emerging from the cellar position in the American league and shoving the Browns therein. • • • Chief Meyers' war club was a factor In the Giants’ 4 to 1 victory over the Pirates. Demaree’s own error pre vented him from coating the Plttsburg- ers with whitewash. • * • In a game characterized by slow field ing and heavy hitting, the Reds defeat ed the Braves yesterday. The Reds used fhree twirlers and the Braves two. The former made fifteen hits and twelve runs, while the Braves laced out nine teen safeties and eleven tallies. • • • Timely hitting gave the Athletics a 4 to 1 victory yesterday over the White Sox. Shawkey, the Athletics’ recruit, was taken out of the game in the sev enth inning, but gets credit for the vic tory. He was wabbling badly just then and Chief Bender took up the pitching role and held* the Chicagoans safe. • • • Those Cleveland merchants who pledged themselves to turn over $100,000 In real money to the Naps provided they won the pennant this year may now pro ceed to spend that money on them selves. The Naps are seven and one-half games in the rear of the leaders and nothing outside of a # miracle will give them the pennant. • • • The Naps, by the way, when oppos ing the Senators ought to change their name to Snaps. The Washington ag gregation handed the Clevelanders a fourth straight defeat yesterday, and now are right on the heels of the sec ond place Clevelanders. « • • The Senators-Naps game yesterday, by the way, was about as weird a bat ting game as ever was staged. The Senators got only four hits off rhe Nap twirlers. yet won in easy fashion. The Naps were leading in the seventh in ning, 3 to 0, when the Senators went to bat. Although the Senators got only two hits in that inning they pushed seven runs across the plate. Reason: The Nap pitchers donated six bases on balls in that session. • • * Hopper, a new pitcher of the Cardi nals. made his debut against the Phil lies yesterday, ami the Phillies prompt ly de-butted him for six singles, two triples, two home runs, eight tallies, and the game. • * • Daubert, of the Dodgers, who is run ning Cravath, of the Phillies, a close race for batting honors in the old league, made a slight gain yesterday, getting a .5-00 batting average for the day. while Cravath had to content himself with .333. Sparkling Tennis on Display (MTS ED ID +•+ +•+ -rs-F Grant and Carter Lose in Doubles U NLESS present indications go far afield, Carleton Smith will win the singles title in the cotton States tennis championships, in progress at East Lake, and Smith and Mansfield will capture the dou bles. It also appears likely that the same combinations will travel through the challenge events successfully and be returned the new champions of the Cotton States tourney. Carleton Smith won his match with Bryan Grant yesterday in clever fashion, his Lawford stroke sweep ing off the opposition after the style of the well-known new broom. The scores were 6-0, 6-3. The doubles engagement between Mansfield and Smith and their most active competitors. Grant and Carter, produced a match that fairly scintil lated in brilliant play, and also went the limit for erratic performance and game rallies. Grant and Carter won the opening game of the second set, on Mansfield’s service, and then went suddenly wild in their placed shots, dropping the next five games in an unbroken string. Confronted with a 6-1 score against them, in addition to the open ing set—played the day before—the losing team, within one game of de feat in the match, put on a rally that fairly lifted the gallery ofT Its benches. Six games in a row Grant and Car ter reeled off with the speed and ac curacy of a machine, and the set went to them, 7-6. Encouraged by this showing. they started with a rush on decisive set. taking three of the first four games. Here. however Mansfield and Smith duplicated their opponents’ run of the previous engagement and took the next five games straight, giving them the set, 6-3, and the match. The finals in singles and doubles probably will be played this after noon. with the challenge round in singles Saturday morning and in dou bles in the afternoon. Let Allen Brooks, of Birmingham, is here to de fend his title of champion against the winner of the singles finals. and Brooks and Bartlett, also of Birming ham. will play the winner of the dou bles.

N EW YORK, Sept. 12. —-If any fans are losing sleep over the probabilities of the Giants being beaten out of the Hag, it might in terest them to know that all the Giants need to reasonably clinch the pennant Is to travel at a .600 clip until the end of the season. Even should they play at a .400 gait for the remainder of the campaign they are reasonably sure < f the flag. This morning the Giants have won 89 games and lost 43. The club still has 22 games to play. The Phillies have wonu 78 games and lost 49. They still must play 27 games. Should the Giants break even on their re maining 22 gained, they would have 100 victories against 54 defeats. In order to beat this performance, the Phillies would have to win 23 of their remaining 27 games, an .852 clip. Should they win only 21 of their games and the Giants break even on their 22, New York still would win by a game. If the Giants played .400 per cent ball between now and the end of the season, they would finish with 98 vic tories and 56 defeats. To defeat them the Phillies would have to win 21 and loe only 6, a .778 clip. If they only won 19 and lost 8, they would be de feated by a game. The Giants still can be beaten out, but there is very little chance left to head them off.

EY LOANED TO SALARIED MEN AT LAWFUL RATES ON PROMISSORY NOTES Without Endorsement Without Collateral Security Without Real Estate Security NATIONAL DISCOUNT GO. 1211-12 Fourth National Bank Bid*. Forty Gridiron Men Start Work at Yale NEW HAVEN. CONN., Sept. 12 —The thu<’ of the pigskin was heard on Yale grounds yesterday. About forty candi dates on the Blues 1913 eleven reported for practice under direction of Head Coach Howard Jones, Yale’s first sal aried resident football Instructor. Pre liminary training has been under way since the first of the month at Siascon- set and Newport. As Head Coach Jones’ assistants there were Captain Douglas Beimelsler, an all-American end, and Carl Gallauer, who played In the line in last year’s eleven. Prospects for a strong eleven are somewhat better than usual. There is much seasoned material. The hardest problem is to find a quarterback, a po sition at which Yale was weak all last year. The team will have two good drop kickers Pumpelly, whose wonder ful hooting defeated the Princeton team last year, ahd Guernsey, who showed ap titude as a freshman. Food for Sport Fans L By GEORQft B. PH AIR. AUTUMN. The word autumn is derived from the English noun autumn, which mean* autumn.. Another reason why It Is called autumn Is that it appears In the almanac every autumn under that name. Autumn Is a season densely populated by football, which same Is a pastime entirely surrounded by noise. Foot ball is not necessary to noise, but noise Is absolutely necessary to football. For example: If you were to meet an enemy In a dark alley and proceed to kick a few lungs and esophagi out of hla system you would be arrested for assault w>*h Intent to kill. But If you performed the same operation In a stadium with 20,000 leather-lunged youths chanting his requiem, you would be carried off the field amid glad hosan nas. your photograph would be hung In the college gym and you would be made a member of the AH-Amerlcan team (provided you were a student at Yale). Still, football Is not without Its re deeming qualities. We know a young man whose parents once gave him up as a bum Job. But the lure of foot ball was eo strong that he entered college, studied assiduously for four years and now holds the proud position of bouncer In one of our leading tango Joints. Autumn Is also the time when base ball players cease from grumbling over meals at $2 per scoff and browse In nectar and ambrosia at 25 cents per browse. P S.—They pay the 25 cents, them selves Speaking of football, a scribe arises to wonder whether Walter Camp has tiicked his All-American team. It might be said without f^ar of successful con tradiction that Mr. Camp will not do thusiy until he has learned who will play on the Yale team Looking over recent box scores one is led to suspect that Rollie Zeider has developed bunions on his fielding aver age. Just as we begin to congratulate our selves that the Balkan trouble Is over In walks Yussif MahmOuta. As C. Dry- den would say, Cursesl Louis Hellbroner, who runs the Cen tral League, has Issued an edict against comical baseball. It Is a good thing St Louis is not on Louie’s circuit. Some one has started a rumor that Jake Stahl will be the next manager of the Browns. Gosh, Jake, but some body hates youl Miller Huggins is said to be suffer ing from a bad cold. It is also rumored that he is suffering from a bad Job. THE ANCIENT PANHANDLER. A stranger stopped me on the street. “/litre you a match?" quoth he. And as l paused the stranger laid a grimy hand on me. Hut when I offered him a match he looked a look of scorn. And said, “I have not had a hit to eat since Monday morn." And at the stranger's tale. / felt a sympathetic thrill. “Oh. take this match hot, sir," said /, "and you may cat your fill" A slant at the standing of those Bos ton Braves reminds Us that even the worm sometimes sits up and makes a holler. FATE. Four years hr trod the football field and heat the foe full sore. He fractured forty foemen's arms and twenty ankles more. He walked upon a hundred necks and broke a dozen spines, Ami chortled as his fallen foes were carried to the lines. Four years he battled safe and sound, nor ever split his Up, And then one day he passed away a victim of the pip. J. Bean Vacationing In Little Old N. Y, Joe Bean, general director of ath letics at the State University, and erstwhile famous coach at Marist College, sends greetings to The Georgian from New York, where he is spending a well-earned vacation. "Good for the Crackers," says Joe. who has been noting progress in the daily prints, even bo far from home. “They certainly deserved to win," ho adds, showing how well he has kept up with the situation. EMPIRE LEAGUE if ELECT W AYfRoas, GA., Sept. 12- There Is a strong probabllit; of Umpire Derrick, oneofth Empire League umpires during- th season recently closed, becoming pres Went of the Empire League. Till statement was made here to-day b baseball enthusiasts who he • ■ bee: discussing the matter with uirector for a week. The performance of Umpire Der rick made many friends for him, am the fans here and in several othe cities of the league are known t favor his selection for president. I is quite likely that the directors wi] nettle the president matter at a meet lng to be held In October. If Der rlek Is not named it is certain a non resident of the members of the leagu will be named One of the most important change to be made in the league rules, ar cording to the advance dope, will b the increase in salary limit fror $1,000 to $1,200. or an amendment t the salary limit providing for a liml of $1,000. excepting the salary fo a manager. It is quite certain als that the league will open in Apri probably about the 20th. Instead o May 1, clo‘1ng earlier. The schedul for the 1914 season is going to b carefully planned and such mix-up as resulted from the 1913 schedul will be avoided. There is no doubt whatever of th league lasting now. Several citie are clamoring for admission. Chie among these are Dothan. Ala., an Dublin, Qa. Both cities want to ge in and the suggestion has been mad to make the le 'ue an eight-tear one by taking in Dothan and Dubli: or two towns in which baseball i desired. The present members of th league will all stick. TWO YANK HURLERS GO.
