To-day we print It is a bright, breezy IcttcSund ough the Crackers trill follow. Greenville. Pa., Dec. 2, 1913. W. S, Farnsworth, Sporting Editor The Georgian: Dear Bill—Received your letter a few days ago requesting a story from me as to rny doings since leaving At lanta. I hardly know how to start this, but will do the best 1 can to give you at least a varied account of same. of course, you have all the dope on our series at Knoxville after 0or 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 lime getting a draw with them in the three games playecf. Of course, he boys were mighty lirt'd after ou • hard finish, and did not play with the dash and vim that characterized their work during the last two weeks of play, for if they had it would have been curtains for the Class.D outfit from the start. But in speaking of this 1 do not want to take any cred it from them, as they 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 rectly North and joined the inde pendent team at this place, which w-.s at that time making history in inde pendent circles. 1 played ten games with them before the close of their e. a soil. I hit an even .400 and fielded lets given j 1,000. and then fore had the honor af yt for the j leading the club In hitting. V.*« ;«>n comes 1 trimmed the Indianapolis (Federal ‘‘fleet that i League club) two out of three, an i f*u" players j th : s was the club that won the pen- was man- nant in the Federal. The Pittsburg »f the 191$ j Federal a managed to win one game i out of five from us. The Indianapolis finish bet- dub really had about a second-divi- t race and j $ion club in a Class A league, but the f the best j Pittsburg club well, the least said, k in trim, the better—about Class c would unt for the ; catch them. This club here won 53 games, lost 7 and tied 2. meeting all comers, re- pp-p cordless of class even holding the IjOI <3 ants to a 7-to-4 score, and mak- > T . § ini? one of the greatest records ever ? l\i 1 T1P 1 established in independent baseball j x j_».V4 After the final game here we were treated to a ten-day vacation at the Notre Dame favorite summer resort of Pennsv'- m> Urn a vania. namely. Conneaut Lake, which wii" applj lias son up beautiful scenery and Is on^ 1 t ijtererce of the prettiest lakes in the country, 1 k it lne ; ‘^bounding in all kinds or game fish. action 8 can j ^ e certainly enjoyed ourselves to tho t until 1 he ! 1'Diit at this resort, having every- ling of the ! essential to do so at our com-' b« referred j mand. due to the liberality of Mr ’arious con- Prt'wn. owner of the club, who saved do expense to make our stay there one ,, c ; long to be remembered. Sailor Md '\ ' ‘ v *’re not very successful in "h * to fishing line, as it was our ambition to some big ones, but from two fo 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” and a "grinder” in each combination. This policy has always tended here tofore to keep the riders hustling all the time. As the men wno 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. THE MODERN HOLDOUT, brainy second baseman in fesh. The ancient holdout used to Kay: “I'll join my old profession”— ! bluff that always filled us with fatigue; But note he never mentions work, but joins the big procession That mulcts a bluff to join the Federal League. Those who have heard Doc White in the act of singing predict that ‘Fippo w jl| bQ plenty of harmony on his new ball team. while we were there that weighed 57 pounds -but we were not in on the killing. After returning from this vacation I resumed duty with the Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad at this point, it being the chief iron-ore carrying road of the United States Steel Cor poration. I have been kept pretry busy ever since. This road has its headquarters here, and rny experi ence during the winter months fo* the past few years, also before my debut as a professional ball player, has earned for me the title of J&cx- of-All-Trades, and one day mav fini me in the dispatcher’s office, etc. I exppet to continue here until it is time to report for spring practice, which I wish was to-morrow, and then I hone 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 the second time in two years in a league the caliber of the Southern, where there are always so many really good pitchers as 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 Joo from the jump and hope to do as well (if not better) than during the past season. While the loss of Smith, Bis- land. Conzelman and company is quite a blow, I look for the Crackers again to be a formidable bunch, ca pable of holding their own with any of them and in the running all the time. Let’s hope that the never-die spir it will continue to be the motto through the 1914 season, and that some more baseball history will be made before the curtain is rung down on the same.

Yester day he was asked to give his opinion of the Mexican’s chances against Champion Willie Ritchie -** By dames J. Jeffries. T OS ANGELES, Dec. 4. —Joe Riv- 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 thar Cross put up would win nin* battles out of ten I can not say that no was outclassed, but Rivers proved i.'ni sei f cleverer, faster, a better punch* r and equally as cool headed. Any other sort of a battle would have produced different results for Rivers, no doubt. While he was al- wavs leading by at least a slight margin. Cross was ever alert, watch 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 1 shrewd ring general, and Rivers had to keep his head w ith him all the time to assure victory for himself. Rivers clearly Won the right to de mand a return match with Ritchie by his showing, and I would like to see these boys matched for a bout here. without fear Gu&ran^ teed i<> stricture.
