Herman looked at Ats*» release, signed hy
the owner of the Los Angeles cltih, nnd he
bridal that, as far os he could see, Ats
free to sign with anybody. Ats then
I' ► kc*l him what he ought to do about It

l'rnnk. "I don't aee hour they can bold

clubs out there are cutting salaries, which
[ they have no right to do In the middle of
the ."mmson, without the ptnyera* consent.
1 don't see how the players ran revert
liack to the league any way. That can only
Bj^yiappen In case the tium does not pay
an sties, nut Ats la paid In full.
4P’lt Is up to Ats. I can't sign him unless
^MUrretary Farrell says so, nml that's Just
Y what Farrell don't say."
The latest minor In regard to n meeting
settle the protests lieforo the league ami
S to attend to whatever business Is likely
Ep|4 anno up Is that there will Ite a direct ora*
iMbttUf In itlruiliighnui Haturday. How*
L ever, no official notification of such a meet-
‘ lug has reached Atlantn.
Theo •Breltenateln Is out of the game for
■ the present. He was taken sick In Nash-
* rllle and has been under the doctor’s care
V ever since. He ban not Iktii confined to
1 .< bed nt auy time, but has lieeu In no
ftuipe to play ball. Thla cuts New Orleans*
► : ply of pitchers so low that Frank la
m badly handicapped.
If the peraon who loat a very hnndaoine
!*•• ket nt the baseball grounds Monday will
ap|4y. tp Manager Smith he or she will be
pleasantly surprise*!.
Ef' Cbarlej Frank says he has It on the Mont-
emery club. "Those people dickered with
Holly," he said Tuesday mornltig. "and 1
jk eaugbt them with the gmxls on. While he
m be hinged to me, they offered him more
'
money than I was paying. I have It In
black nnd white. Ho naturally I put In n
kick. Their dealings made Holly Jump to
the outlaws, and I lost a good man."
Saturday afternoon's game will again tie
called at 3 o'clock Instead of 4. This will
l»e done to allow the Atlanta team to catch
a train for Shreveport, where they ore due
to play Sunday. »
In order to have a pitcher In good condi
tion for the game Sunday and not tired to
death by the long ride from Atlanta to
Shreveport, Manager Smith will probably
ship one out of Atlanta Friday night and
give hltn plenty of time to reat up liefore
the hard contest Sunday. Just which pitcher
will- go will be decided later.
That the whole state of Georgia Is pulling
for the victory of Hilly Smith nnd the
Crackers was brought out Monday when
the mniingcr received a letter from Carl
Lloyd, n Senoln rooter, who Is, to Judga
by the letter, it little hoy.
Inclosed was what was guaranteed to be
the "b ft hind leg" of the proverbial "grave
yard rabbit" caught by a horned owl.
Hilly Smith whs much tickled over the
gift and In return sent l.loyd a baseball.
■\ H. nnd N. II.—The manager, however,
..—a not agree to make n regular habit
of trading baseballs for rabbits 7 feet.
