Crackers Home Monday; Lost Six Games on Road by One-Run Margin
i
A g —_.-.
Two Youngsters Pitched Great
Ball—Team Won 7, Lost 7.
At Home for Twen_ty Games,
By GUY BUTLER.
Our frequently mentioned warriors
of the diamond, those Crackers, four
teen strong, will kick in Monday, aft
er three weeks on foreign soil, dur
ing which time they managed to dig-!
pose of seevn contests, evcluding to
day's affair, while they were hPlpin:'
themselves to half a dozén and one.
Seven won and seven lost isn’t so ter?
ribly worse. Just think, we might
have lost the whole darned bunch.
When Captain Mayer led his gal
lant crew to the old Union shed on
Tuesday, May 27, to grab off a rat
tler, we were restling uncomfortably
in fifth place, sharing it with the
Nashville Vols, who have since taken
a nose dive into the cellar. We took
one, too, but because of the close
ness of the battle for cighth place,
wé crawled out in one victory. We
are now resting in the same climate
as we were upon our departure.
FEATURES OF TRIP,
The features of our road trip, from
é fan's viewpoint, were the great 23-
inning struggle with the Lookouts
Friday, which ended 2 to 2, and the
wonderful pitching of Ray Roberts
and Dan Boone throughout the jour
ney.
Every game that ne twirls carries
Ray Roberts deeper into the hearts of
the Atlanta fans. Ray is just a young
ster, coming up, and no man ever
made a bigger hit with local fandom
by his sensational twirling than has
Ray. His won and lost record isn't
80 impressive, but his games have
been remarkable for a youngster
rllg'ing his first year of Class A ball.
oone has come through in a walk.
On the road, the big boy twirled two
shut-outs, one against Nashville and
the other against Chattanooga, win
ning 1 to 0 and 4 to 0, while in Mem
phis, he reliewved Roberts in time to
save a game.
LOST BY ONE RUN.
Of the fifteen games on the
road trip, six were lost by mar
ging of one run, which shows
the club played good ball. When you
consider that the captain and star
outfielder, Sammy Mayer, who is also
one of the leading hitters of the team,
has been laid up with a cracked leg
for a week or more, and that the reg
ular first-sacker, Griffin, who has
alsé been hitting hard, was out of
the line-up for several games, the
Crackers made a very good showing,
and it indicates that they will come
through in much better fashion when
Sammy and Ivy do get back into reg
ular harnecs and the team returns
to Poncey.
Another feature of the road trip
was tHe good work by Lefty Suggs,
who has not yet appeared before a
friendly audience. lL.efty won one
game, 4 to 3, and dropped one, 3 to 2,
which isn’'t bad pitching.
The team comes back to Ponce de
l.eon Monday for 20 games in as
many days, and during that time
they should pick uap considerably. If
they do not make a noise like 3 first
¢ division outfit, we will be lost, 'Near
lv & hundred games remain to be
played before the ecurtain descends,
and that's quite some stretch, but
there's no use. letting the other fel
lows get too big a lead. Onmly six
or seven games separate the Crackers
and the first place club, and with the
locals playing good baseball for a
couple of weeks, we could get right
up among the leaders. »
GREAT RACE PROMISED.
President Martin is certainly going
to see a stiff race in his little old
ecircuit this season, or we miss our
guess. There is not x team in the
league that is hopelessly oul of the
fighting. Even the lowly Vols and
Lookouts have a chance, and any
club in the second bracket could
'('llmb right into the select circle by
putting a few victories under its helt.
The Volunteers are here Mconday,
opening a three days' stay. Then
come the Lookouts so, three; Mem
phis for four games in three days;
the Travelers for a trio, New Crleans
for the same number; Mohile for four
engagements in three days and then
the I'rank brigade hits the road once
more, going to New Orleans and Mo
bile before returning to Atlanta.

The Crackers will spend July 1 at
home. Tables have been reserved at
several of the leading soda fountains
where our boys will watch the old
order of things pass away and see
the birth of the purified era. For they
are coming back Monday for a stay
on the old home lot of twenty days
—count 'em-—twenty.
It is a fine chance for the Frank
men to pick up-a lot of standing in
this man's league. The distance sep
arating the leaders and the cellarites
is negligible. Three or four straight
wins will put any club most any
where. More power to their maces!

Charles Shonesy announces that
Elmer Oliphant really is on his way

and it looks like he will win in a
lwulk. .

tanooga dropped from the sublime
yesterday to the ridiculous this aft

third of the series by the top-heavy
score of 15 to 1. |
Noel, who opened for the Lookouts,
lasted but four innings, when, with
six hits and five runs charged against
him, he retired in place of Herbert
Kelly, a former Cracker. The Irish
southpaw, wiho came in from the out
field to essay the pitching role for
the first time this scason, fared eVen
worse than his predecessor, as the
box score will attest. The Crackers
hit both heavers at will '
BRATCHI DONATES TRIPLE.
Adams piteched grand ball for the
Georgians and had not Bratchi prac
tically dcnated Anderson a triple to
start the seventh he would have
scored a shutout. Higgins' single fol
lowed, producing the local tally. L.oh
man was donatecd thefts of second and
third in the ninth, the Crackers grow- |
ing positively philanthropic in the
face of their overwhelming lead.
Adems’ support was just as bril
-dant on both the offense and defense
as was his own mound work. The
Crackers hit in clusters, fielded in er
rorless fashion and ran the bases in
wonderful style. Dykes and Griflin
negotiated two double steals, while
Bratchi in the seventh scored all the
way from second on Dykes' squeeze
bunt, which the latter beat out for a
hit.
The Crackers sewed up the game
in the fourth when they annexed their
lirst quintet. After Moore had flied
to center Bratchi lived on Demoe's
error and Galloway, Herndon, Dylkes
and Griffin singled in rapid succes
sion, producing four runs, with lhc‘
aid of a wild peg to the plate by
Lacey to Nab Herndon, scoring on
Griffin’s single, Styles then grounded
out, but Niederkorn singled, counting
Grifhn, Adams whiffed for the final
out,
Thren more came in the fifth off
Kelly. Moore, Bratchi and Galloway
bea. infield hits in succession. Hern
don and Dykes forced Moore and
Bratchi, respectively at (he plate, on
casy taps to Demoe, but Griflin sin
gled to right, scoring Galloway and
Herndon, and Dykes then counted on
a double steal with Griftin,
SCOREBOARD GROANS.
The ceventh saw the Crackers hang
up six additional tallies on the groan
ing scoreboard. Bratchi opened with
a double and after Galloway had
popped ont, Herndon walked and|
Dykeg, CGriffin, Styles, Niederkorn,
Adams and Moore singled in succes
sion Bratchi and Galloway, coming
up for the second time in the frame,

How He'd Handle Nupfials
Tex Rickard, following his suc-~
cessful press-agenting of the Willard-
Dempsey fight, was retained as 80-
cial secretary to Mrs. J. Biscult
Dough, a newly rich matron, who had
social ambitions for her daughter,
Fluffy Dough. Tex agreed, for a con
sideration of SIOO,OOO, his favorite
figure, to stage a recording-breaking
wedding providing the engagement
was arrived at by Fluffy herself. She
did. So did Tex.
~ Here are clippings from his press
‘campalxn:
~ Bangor, Me., April s—Tex Rickard,

championship fight between Jc?‘Wll

Bangor's younger Set, has been
matched with Gerald Donald Whit
tlesby, who won the checker title at
Hale University last year., The date
and place of the weddifig will be an
nounced later,
Bangor, Me., April 14—Tex Rick

forged to tue front when Mulford re
tired with a flat tire, and was never
