Crackers Home M;nday; Lost Six Games on Road by One-R un M largin
y
Two Youngsters Pitched Great
Ball—Team Won 7, Lost 7.
At Home for TwentyiGames.
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 dis
pose of seevn contests, evcluding to
day's affair, while they were helping
themselves to half a dozen 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 eighth place,
we 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
a fan's viewpoint, were the great 23-
Yinning struggle with the Lookout
¥riday, which ended 2 to 2, and the
wonderful pitching of Ray l}oberts
and Dan Boone throughout thé jour
ney.
KEvery game that he 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
soo impressive, but his games have
been remarkable for a youngster
playing his first year of Class A balll‘
Boone has come through in a walk.
On the road, the big boy twirled twol
shut-outs, one against Nashville and
the other against Chattanooga, win
ning 1 to 0 and 4 to 0, while in Mem
phis, he relieved Roberts in time to
save a game. |
’ LOST BY ONE RUN. |
Of the fifteen games on- the
road trip, six were lost by mar
gins 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 wilß a cracked leg
for a week or more, and that the reg
ular first-sacker, Griffin, who has
also 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 harness 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. Lefty 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 up «-nnsidembh:.. 1t
they do not make a noise like a first
division outfit, we will be lost. Near
lv a hundred games remain tp be
played before the curtain descends,
and that’s quite some streteh, but
there's no use letting the other fel-
Jows get too big a lead. Only 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
circuit this season, or we miss our
guess. There is not a team in the
league that is hopelessly out of the
fighting. Even the lowly Vols and
l.ookouts have a chance, and any
elub in the second bracket could
elimb right into the select circle by
putting a few victories under its belt.
The Volunicets are here Menday,
opening a .three days’ stay. Then
come the Lookouts for three; Mem
phis for (our games in three days;
the Travelers for a trio, New Orleans
tor the same number; Mobile for four
engagements in three days and then
the KFrank brigade hits the road once
more, going to New Orleans and Mo
bile before returning to Atlanta,

BY ED. DANFORTH
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
~—cQunt '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!

Golf is a winter and sum
mer sport in a lot of ways.
Take Clarence Angier for
instance, who declares he
will never get 01, as long
as he chases the tricky little
pellet—he is no more enthu
siastic golfer than Sam, Jr.,
the little son of Mr. and
Mrs. Sam C. Watkins, 302
Angier avenue. The little
fellow insists on playing
every day his mother or his
father will take him out to
East Lake. He has a set of
clubs that just fit.

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, who came in from the out
field to essay, the pitching role for
the first time this season, tared even
worse than his predecessor, as the
box score will attest. The Crackers
hit both heavers at will,
BRATCHI DONATES TRIPLE.
Adams pitched grand ball for the
Georgians and had not Bratchi prac
tically denated Anderson a triple to
start the seventh he would have
scored a shutout. Higgins' single fol
lowed; producing the local tally. Loh
man was donated thefts of second and
third in the ninth, the Crackers grow
ing positively philanthropic in the
face of their overwhelming lead.
lA\dvms' support was just as bril
.@nt on both the offense and defense
as was his own mound work. ']‘hcl
Crackers hit in clusters, ficlded in er
rorless fashion and ran the bases in
wonderful style. Dykes and Griffin
negotiated two double steals, while
Bratchi in the seventh scored all the
way from second on Dykes' squeeze
bunt, which the latier beat out for a
hit,
' The Crackers sewed up the game
in the fourth when they annexed their
first quintet. After Moore had flied
to center Bratchi lived on Demoe's
error and Galloway, Herndon, Dykes
and Griffin singled in rapid succes
slon, producing four runs, with the
aid of a wild peg to the plate hy
Lacey to Nab Herndon, scoring on

Griftin, Adams whiffed for the final
out,

Kelly, Moore, Bratchi and Galloway
beg. infield hits in succession, Hern

SCOREBOARD GROANS,
The seventh saw the Crackers hang
up six additional tallies on the groan

a double and after Galloway had
popped out, Herndon walked and
Dykes, Griffin, Styles, Niederkorn,
Adams and Moore sgingled in succes

World Mark Is Set as Packard
Sails Past Mulford at Sheeps
head Bay—Two Other Records
(By International News Service.)
SHEEPSHEAD BAY, L. 1, June 14,
Approximately 25,000 auto race fans
saw Ralph DePalma, in his favorite
Packard Special, win the 50-mile race,
the feature event on the local speed«
way, today from a field of a dozen
starters. DePalma’s time was 26 min.
utes 23.2 seconds, with a new world's
record for that distance. Dave Lewis,
in a Meteor Special, finished second,
and Joe Boyer, in a Frontenac, was
third.
DePalma’s masterly driving and the
condition of his ear convinced the au
dience he had held himself in reserve
in the three preceding events. After
waging a fierce battle for the first 11
miles with Ralph Mulford, DePalma
forged to the front when Mulford re
tired with a flat tire, and was never
headed.
The day was ideal for racing, andl
the crowd an enthusiastic one, ale
though there were none of the cus
tomary thrills. Two other records
also were smashed during the aftere
noon. The other results follow:
First Event—Ten miles: Milton,
first; Mulford, second; Resta, third.
Time, 5:20.2. The time .eclipses the
previous track record by 3 minutes
and 3-5 second, established by Deas
Palma in 1918,
Second Wvent-——Thirty miles: Mule
ford, first; DePalma, second; Lewis,
third; Thomas, fourth, Time, 16;:20 3-4,
This also is a new record, the former
time being 16:31.2, also established by
DePalma one vear ago.
Third Evént—Ten miles: Mulford,
first: Boyer, second; DePaima, third;
Lewis, fourth, Time, 5:42.2,
