AFTER SHEGKARD
ID MGE CLUB
Dobbs Likely to Go to Pels, and
Elberfeld Seems Certain To Be
Left Out—Other Gossip.
BILL SMITH, manager of the
champion Crackers, is at home
again after a rather strenuous
session in Cincinnati, where there was
much awarding of drafts and such.
“There was only one Southern
League manager not present at the
meeting.” Bill said this morning.
"Everybody was showing a lot of in
terest in the proceedings. Looked
as if there were something up every -
body's sleeve, though nothing fell out
while the meeting was on.”
Sheckard to Lookouts?
Fill said President Andrews, of the
Chattanooga club, was after Jimmy
Sheckard to manage the Lookouts he
coming year, but there was no cer
tainty about the deal.
Another move was the attempt of
the Montgomery management to get
Stovall to head the Billikens.
"Stovall put the kihnsh on that,
however.” said Bill. "He says. ‘Say.
I'm not ready for exile yet. no matter
what happens.’ So I guess it won’t be
Stovall.”
About J. Dobbs.
Thon there is the case of Johnny
Dobbs, and about him and St.
Louis rumor Bill Smith had quite a
little talk with President Hedges, of
the Browns.
"I asked Mr. Hedges right out if
Johnny was going to manage th
Browns next year, and this is exactly
what he said: ‘Not next year.’ Now.
you can figure that out to suit your
self, but it sort of sounded to me as
if he might have added. ‘Not yet—but
soon!’ ”
And Bill went on to say that the
most probable berth for Johnny in
1914 was in New Orleans.
What About the “Kid?”
"Which will have Kid Elberfeld
sort of out in the cold,” said Bill,
with reference to what is *o-day the
managerial mystery of the Southern
League—that is. where does Elberfeld
stand with reference to the Pelicans.
Take it all around. Bill seemed
much pleased with his visit in Cin
cinnati, but for what special reason.
If any. Bill really wasn’t saying. Bi’l
i» not worrying about the job ques
tion. of course. And it is a pretty fair
hunch that the foxy boss of the
Crackers didn’t spend the better part
of a week in that dear Clncinnit!
without nutting over something to
ward the pennant chase of 1914.
Georgia Cancels
Louisiana Battle
ATHENS, GA., Sept. 19. After mo
tioning. amending and voting for a
couple of hours, the board of directors
of the University of Georgia Athletic
Association passed a resolution at their
meeting last night canceling the Louis
iana State University game here on Oc
tober 11. Dahlonega will be played on
this date, instead of September ><.
It was expected that the Louisiana
State University game would be played
after it had been taker, up again by
the board and an announcemnt to this
effect had been made, but in executive
session it was finally disposed of
Georgia probably will have to pay a
forfeit of S2OO.
CORNELL DEFENSE WEAK.
ITHACA, N. Y.. Sept. 19.—1 n the first
test of defensive strength of the Cornell
varsity team here, the first team showed
up poorly, being unable to withstand
the plunging of the s» .*<»nd team s backs,
Gilbert. Sprague and Shock, when the
ball was inside of the 10-yard line. The
guards and tackles played loosely, and
but few advances wore blocked.

No Rickeys for B.
Rickey, of Browns
ST. LOVIS, Sept. 19. —The St. Louis
Browns'. with Branch Rickey at the
managerial helm, will probably' be the
most unique baseball team in either
of the major leagues. Branch Rickey'.
a , a leading Y. M A. worker and
Sunday school teacher, has some fixed
ideas regarding the running of a
baseball team that undoubtedly will
conflict with the Ideas of the men.
In other words, the team will be run
on Sunday school principles
Rickey objects to Sunday baseball
and. in his major league career, never
took part in a Sunday contest. He
believes in Ids players keeping ear y
hours and reporting for work ear.y
in the morning. No more wine sup
pers. no more joy rides, for the
Browns.
Every member of the .earn wil he
expected to breakfast at 8 o’clock in
the morning and not at 11. He be
lieves that no player can be at his
best in the afternoon If be whiles
away the morning in sleep.

TN reply, let me say that
1 Sewanee did want Patten, and
they wanted him mighty bad.
A story was born in Chattanooga
saying Sewanee int mded to protest
Patten’s right to play because of pro
fessionalism.
The story was either false or Se
wanee changed their mind when they
saw’ they *ere put in an unsports
man light by protesting a player they
themselves were after but lost.
Patten will not play on any Tech
team unless he can make good in his
studies.
Patten will not be "laboring under
any HANDICAP of Heismans influ
ence and tactics."
This same Heisman knows more
football than any man In the South,

T'HE season of 1913 In American
1 football promises to be one of
radical types of play on the part of
all teams. We are not far enough
away from the old line plunge game
to relegate that brand of play to the
background, but more and more the
spectacular open play will be used.
There will be as many Innovations
as there are coaches, in the attempt
to reap the full benefit of th® new
type of play which brought so many
surprises in 1912.
Last year was the banner year for
the smaller colleges where they had
competition against the big teams of
the country, the light, speedy team. ,
under the new’ typ»- of play, getting
the start on the larger and heavier
type. That can hardly be true this
year. The mistakes of last year will
be profited by Some of the big teams
last year changed in the middle of
the season in the effort to regain lost
prestige, and in ea< h case the result*,
justified the change.
• • •
VERSATILITY will mark this sea
• 5-on’s games Trick plays, speedy
and shifty tactics, will put a pre
mium < n the man with brains in
stead of excessive brawn. Os course,
the ideal is a t ombination of the two.
Less time consumed in the recovery
from the pile-up and the ability to
get Into the scrimmage formation
quicker, is proving it.-- advantage

Browns Sign a Kid
Wonder in McCabe
FARMINGTON. MO., Sept 19
Charlie Barrett, scout for the St.
Louis Americans, to-day signed Tim
McCabe, an amateur pitcher, of Gran
iteville. Mo., for the 1914 season of the
St. Louis club. Barrett heard of Mc-
Cabe through the manager of the
Farmington team and came here yes
terday to watch him pitch against i
team of semi-pros from St. Louis. In
the game McCabe got sixteen j-nrlke
outs, and his work so impressed the !
! St. Louis scout that the player was
signed by the major league team to-
i day. McCabe is 18 years old

C’atching the other team unprepared
on the line was responsible for many
scores last year.
The forward pass, with fewer re
strictions, Is going to lend itself tn
an even greater advance alonp the
line of open play, and coupled with
this conies that new liberty that may
give some big surprises this year
the privilege of being diowed to kick
the ball from any distance back of
the line, the kicker not being re
quired to be five yards back. In fact,
kicking opens up all sorts of possi
bilities in the open type of piny which
were not so evident a few years ago
when kirks from formation were in
vogue.
THE spectators continue to benefit
more and more each year, for
now they can see some of the play
and even though unversed In the in
ner workings of the game, can read
ily understand the reason for the
progress of the ball and appreciate
th< strategic display of otYense and
defense.
Prejudice against the game is being
eliminated very markedly and In no
phase of the good old sport Is this
more true than in the making of
the game clean. Open play means
clean play, and the dirtv player finds
himself uncovered and subject to th«
judgments of players, officers and
spectators alike.
"Sport fox sport’s sake, and make p
clean," will come to be the slogan
In football as in nil sports.
