I have been kept pretty busy ever since. This road has its headquarters here, and my experi ence during the winter months for the past few years, also before my debut as a professional ball player, has earned for me the title of Jacu- of-All-Trades, and one day may flnJ me in the dispatcher’s office, etc. I .expect to continue* here until it is lime to report for spring practice, which I wish was to-morrow, and then I hope to take up where I left off the past season. Now that the official averages of the Southern League have been re leased. I can’t help but feel just a little proud of being declared the leading hitter for tlie second time in two years in a league, the caliber of the Southern, where there are always so many really good pitchers ;fs has been the case since 1 joined their ranks. Now that I have been honored with the position of captain of the Crack ers for the coming season by Man ager Smith, I expect to be on the job from the jump and hope to do as well (if not better) than during the pasi season. \Vhil< the loss of‘Smith.

To-day we print Letter Xu. 1. It is from Harry Welch once t captain of nc.rt season's team. It is a bright, breezy letter and ought to be rare fond for the real dyed-in-the-wool fans. Other letters from the Crackers will follow. Greenville. Pa., Dec-. 2. 1913. W. S. Farnsworth, Sporting Editor The Georgian: Dear BUI—-Received your letter a few’ days ago requesting a story from me .as to my doings since leaving At lanta. I hardly "know how to start this, but will do the best I can to give you at least a varied account of same. Of course, you have all the dope on our series at Knoxville after our departure from Atlanta, but I might state that it was another case of “a short series is no proof of the strength of a ball club," as we had a hard* time getting a draw with them in the three games played. Of course, tlie boys were mighty tfred after ou.’ hard finish, and did not play with the dash and vim tl.at characterized their work during the last two weeks of play, for if they had it would have been curtains for the (’lass D outfit from the start. But 1n speaking of this I do not want to take any cred it from them, as tlu y were strength ened with other players from the Ap palachian. and no >ubt were the class of their league After leaving Knoxville, I came di- | reetly North and joined t4- ind r> - j pendent team at this place, which was I at that time making history in indo- j pendent circles. I played ten games with them before the close of their I season. 1 hit an even .400 and fielded I 1.000. and therefore had the honor of | leading the club in hitting. We trimmed the Indianapolis (Federal league club) two out' of three. nn| this was the club that won the pen nant in the Federal. The Pittsburg Foderals managed to win one game out of five from us. The Indianapolis club really bad about a second-divi sion club in a Class A league, but the Pittsburg club—well, the least said, the better about Class C would catch them. This club here won 53 games, lost 7 and tied 2. meeting all comers, re gardless of class, even 'holding the Giants To a 7-to-4 score, and mak ing one of the greatest records ever established In independent baseball. After the final game here we were treated to a ten-day vacation at the favorite summer resort o;’ Pennsyl vania. namely, Conneaut Lake, which has some beautiful scenery and is one I of the prettiest lakes in the country, abounding in all kinds of game fish. I We certainly enjoyed ourselves to !he j limit it this resort, having ever.v- j thing essential to do so at our com- I mand. due to the liberality of Mr. Brown, owner of the dub. who saved j no expense to make our stay there one long to be remembered. We were not very successful In ho fishing line, as it was our ambition to land some big ones, but from two to four pound bass were our limit, Al though they landed one muscallonge ! while we w ere there that weighed 57 j pounds—but w e were not in on the j killing After returning from this vacation I resumed duty with the Bessemer jand T.ake Frio Railroad at this point, it bring the chief iron-ore carrying 17 Teams to Compete In Six-Day Bike Race At New York Sunday NEW YORK, Dec. 4 - Seventeen teams will comprise the field of the twenty-first annual international six- day bike race, which will begin one minute after midnight Sunday at Madison Square Garden. In the pair ings of the men every consideration has§ been made to arrange matters in such fashion that there will be a “sprinter” ajud a "grinder” in each combination. This policy has always tended here tofore to keep the riders hustling all the time. As the men who will com pete this, season are the very best professional performers of the world, and as special prizes will be hung up as an incentive toward speed, it is expected that a new record will re sult. Hedges Worried Over His Players Signing | With Federal League ST LOVIS. MO., Dec. 4—Alarmed by j the jumps and rumors of jumps of some of his crack players to the Federal League. Robert Lee Hedges, of fh© St. Louis Americans, has cut short his trip through the Southwest. Agnew. the Brown’s best catcher, has admitted sign- I ing with the Federals, and Hedges now is worried over the reports that Baum- j gardner, Williams. Weilmah and several j others have joined or intend to join the new league. THE MODERN HOLDOUT. The ancient holdout used to say: "I'll join my old profession”— A bluff that always filled us with fatigue; But now he never mentions work, but joins the big procession That makes a bluff to join the Federal League.

J IM JEFFRIES, former heavy weight champion, witnessed the Cross-Rivers battle in Los An geles on Thanksgiving Day. Yester day he was asked to give his opinion of the Mexican's chances against Champion Willie Ritchie. Jeff sum med up the entire Turke\ Day fight in the following story, and declares Joe deserves another crack at the ti tle. By Janies J. Jeffries. I ()S ANGELES, Dec. 4.—Joe Riv- ers fought like a champion, and his victory over Leach Cross was a natural result. Ar.v time that Rivers puts up such a fight he is worth a bet against any lightweight living. It was the best battle l ever saw. and in going back over the fight by rounds I am unable to otfer a single criticism of his tactics or of his con duct in the ring. Throughout the battle he kept .• cool head on his shoulders and us*- ; more brains in directing his efforts than I previously had given him cred it for having. He fought a perfect battle in every respect. Refusing to be rattled or to lose his head by the taunts of Cross, carefully planning his battle a* he went along and box ing and fighting at his best form, ne was Invincible. There never was a time when I feared that he might lose, especially after the first three rounds Rivers' one big fault in e past b^s i'cea bis carelessness lit tUc ring, .id proneness to lose his head when stung and leave himself open to at tack by a wise ring general. Cross used every device known to him in an effort to get Rivers’ goat, but tne Mexican was steady* at all times and refused to fall for any of it. In my opinion, this was one of the big fac tors in his victory. I can not criticise the battle that Cross put up. He fully lived up to his reputation for cleverness. brains, punch and courage, and is entitled to a great deal of credit for the showing he made against odds. The battle that Cross put up would win nine battles out of ten. I can not say that he was outclassed, but Rivers proved him self cleverer, taster, a better puncher, and equally as cool headed. Any other sort of a battle would have produced different results f.»r Rivers, no doubt. While he was al ways leading by at least a slight margin. Cross w as* ever alert, w atch ing constantly for a chance to get over his right and win the fight in a -single punch, and he was willing to mix it and take a chance. He is a shrewd ring generai, and Rivers had to keep his head with him all the time to assure victory for himself. Rivers clearly won the right to de mand a return match with Ritchie bv his showing, and I would like to see these boys matched for a bout here.
