12 THE 'ATLANTA GEORGIAN. TUESDAY, JULY, 17, 1906. \ . . , - ^ . . 1 1 | PENNANT RACrC EDITED BY PERCY H. WHITING GROWS WARMER j II S: ft ■ - HOME SERIES IS OPENED WITH CLEAN-CUT VICTORY On Monday afternoon, juat aa a starter for tba borne series of fifteen fames which the Atlanta fans will hire the pleasure of seelof durfnf the next two and a half weeks, the Firecrackers trounced the Sffre- gatlon of ball tossers from Little Rock to the tans of 8 to 1. And the mighty Brady was In the Imx for the visitors at that. It was Atlanta's fame from the first Inntof, snd It was simply a question as to bow larfe the score would be at the finish. The fame was marked by clean, fast playlnf. Only one error was cbalkinl afalnst each team. Until the last part of the contest. It looked like a hitless shut out, but "Doc" Childs finally let down a little, with the result that the visitors bunched the hits and scored a lonesome run In the eighth. A base on balls to Msany and two singles by DeArmoud and Donglass did the trick. Atlanta bnncbed her runs In the first and third Innings. In the first, Otto Jor dan . started the fun by singling. Then, with two out, Rid' Smith singled, scoring Jordan, and Whltey Morse did the same, scoring Smith. Of course. Fox was there with hts double, and Morse scored. In the third Inning, and while It drls- xled In a threatening manner, the spirits of the Little 'Ilock delegation were still further dampened by a bunch of hits, and four runs for the home team. Winters ^lt to second and beat It out. Hid flmlth and Morse each singled, and then, with the bases full, Fox bit n cute one past second, scoring Winters and Smith. Wal lace got a punk hit In the fnfleld, and then a hot one by Archer peat second scored Morse and Fox. Not content with the number of Mna already set against the home team on the score board, one mors was added In the seventh. A pretty two-bagger by Winters and n single by Umlth gave Winters the needed opportunity to score on the throw- in, when Morse filed‘out to left field.

ONE DAY’S DOPE HARVEST The Pelican team la without a doubt the atrongeat In the league right now, Tou can't get around It, and If the boy. don't win the pennant It will be be cause of the disadvantage, they will be put to. If Manager Frank get. an other pitcher the team will loom up al most aa strong above the others as last year's team did.—New Orleans Item. Tea, maybe, but Charley Frank la up against the same proposition that Mc- Qraw la In the National League—every other team la pulling against him. Exoept, maybe, Memphis. When It cornea to a hard worker and an all around good backstock, you'll have to take your hat off to Matthews. "Matty" never says die, but Is at It hammer and tongs at all times. He la one of the moat popular players that visits this city.—Nashville American. Same for Atlanta. Everybody likes Matty—In hla more peaceful momenta. Bobble Qllka, the promiscuous talker, says that Birmingham will ny the trophy this season.—Birmingham Age- Herald. Billy Smith regrets to report that he la not of the same opinion. "I can't see that team for the pen nant," said Billy. "They are hitting right now, but I don’t see how they can win." Nashville has landed O'NelU and Fleet, two players from Indiana. Finn la trying hard to strengthen the toam. The funny part of the matter Is that It la not New Orleans that the players fear, but Atlanta. The Peli cans all have tho "21" sign up Is the opinion of the local players and the united opinion Is that Atlanta will be the boys to mnke the run with Birm ingham. While this Is the opinion of the players, all are glad that this Is a true condition. The players of these two clubs are most friendly and It , would Indeed be a pleasure If Blnnlng- . ham could fly the rag and Atlanta land .second—Birmingham News. Birmingham baseball writers havo a boost for Atlanta players and a knock for Atlanta writers. However, If tho Take this, for example, from The Birmingham News: "The high school boy on The Atlanta Georgian has called attention to a grammatical er ror which was made In haste In these columns a few days ago." Pardon us, though. It was our mis, take. We agreed to swear off. Billy Smith Is not popular here, but the Atlanta Association la well thought of by all. Billy appears to be one of those “I’m It" kind.—Birmingham News. That's a sweet-tempered dope artist The News has. Billy Smith Is still signing new men. Come on, Billy, you can't get too many, as you will have to beat three teams to win that rag.—Birmingham Ledger. President Kavanaugh says that fif teen Is too many, but maybe he Is prejudiced. jeiMMHHMMHIHIHtMHOMMMtMtlHHMHIi ' League Standings leseeeeeeeeseeeeeeeei SOUTHERN.

Certainly Looks So From the Fact That Series Scheduled For Little Rock Has Been Transferred to New Orleans—Manager Smith . Will'Take Action to PreventFrank From Taking Advantage. la Cbarlsy Frank back at bis old tricks! Gas of Little Bock’s home series has been transferred to New Orleans and President Kavanaugh has uotlfled Manager Zimmer, of. Little Rock, of this change. Unless one of the nerlea between Little Rock and the Pelicans In the Crescent City transferred back to little Hock—and Zimmer bee heard of no such transfer—the league Is ranght In tha act of doing juat wbnt Atlanta has protested against tuoat bitterly for a couple of years—giving New Orleans more games at horns than they have on the road. By giving them more at home the league helpa Charley Frank In hla race for the pennant and propor tionally handicaps the other clubs In their efforts along the ume line. New Orlenoa la scheduled to play at Lit tle Rock August 6, 7 and 8. But Manager Zimmer has been notified to go to Now Orleann for thta series. Union, tbe three games which the Trnvaleri are scheduled to play In New Orleans July 3, 30 and 31 are tranaferred to the Arkansas capital— and no one on earth bus any Idea that they wljl be transferred—then eomebody Is giv ing Charley Frank tn advantage over other teams In the league. Moat of the talk about Charley Frank and hit position aa "Dictator of the iMgne" has been unadulterated both, but If he can dictate to the league where gamee are to be ployed It lotas pretty bed. Manager Smith was up Ip arms when In formed of tho Intended switch. "We'll have to do,something,” he said. 'Til write to Harry Vaughan and find out what be knows about It. Birmingham and Atlanta Will have to hang together on thta deal.” When Manager Zimmer was naked admit It he said: "I only know that we have been ordered by tbe president of tho longue to play thosb games In New Orleans, In stead of In Little Rock, where they ere scheduled. And we have not been Informed of any ewttehlng of gemes back to Little Bock to make up for It, so' I tako It that we Juat lose those home games." Manager Zimmer, of Little Book, teemed glad to land In Atlanta Monday and ap peared relieved that he had eacaped from Now Orloani. When be was asked If he saw any evi dences of "robber" balls 111 Pellcsntovrn he •till: "I guess It Is the old cnee down there —■punk bolls’ or ‘Iced balls' wbsn the via-. Itor/nre at bat. 'live balls' when tho homo team comen In. But of course I can't prove It. "It la none of my easiness," continued the Chief, "but If I wan President Kava- naugh 1 would go down tbore myself and when thlugi looked suspicions I would go right on the field, get tbe ball and cot It open." Zimmer was unusually enthusiastic over his new man, Kleth, of Untvernlty of Arkansas fame. "He la the find of the season," he said, "and he will go higher." Wallace, the new recruit, took hip first turn In the field yeaterday and made a hit with the fans. If he continues to do well be will be retained. If be doee not Billy 8mlth eayn that he la going to try to go back In the game. "I talked the matter over with, Harry Vaughan," he eald, "and we decided that there wee nothing In the constitution or by-lawn of the league, and nothing tn tbe rule* of the National Association or the rules of baseball which prevented ms from going In and out when I pleased I think thnt President Kavanaugh wan wrong when he warned Vnnghan and me that If we went out again we could not go back. In case It la naceseary we will teat that ruling." Manager Smith was much pleased at the •howlug of Chillis In Monday's game. "He did not try to pitch hla head off In the first two or three Inologe the way he has other times,” said Manager Billy, “and In consequence be lasted better," When naked about Duggan and bin chances of making tbs team. Manager Smith Mid:'"! don’t know what about Dug gan, bat one thing Is certain, he will got t fair trial with aa." By TAD. By Private Leased Wire. Philadelphia, July "l7.—Raro Berger n* Jerk O'Brien and whiled him to a stand still In their elx-ronnd bout last night. Berger went after him the moment the bell rlanred and every minute during tbe six rounds he betted the Philadelphian, was the surprise of O'Brien's life. Iqetesd of the big soft lad—a rammer at the game—he found one with a wallop that toil and etnng. O'Brien tried to Jump and Jab. He wen welted In tbe body. He tried to slog, bnt was fought beck to the ropes. He tried to feint, bat fonnd an opponent who wss ns cool is be. O'Brien was'beaten at every tom. Berger never for n moment lost hla con fident sir. Its ths referee motioned to the men Berger walked np and met O'Brien, whose heed wee cocked on the aide. The bell dinged after the talk and they went St It Berger, with his lips tightly closed, met the Qnaker In the center of the ring end the very first crack slammed him on tbe jaw with a left. He wan crouching slightly and went after O'Brien, who Im mediately ntarted his "Jumping Jock" tac tics, sending hie left over to Berger'e fare. Berger had stndled thin te he had watched O'Brien In former battles and as O'Brien Jomped he shifted his head to the •tde and tore bla left Into the Quaker's body with terrific force. He did it again and again. Surprised at the esse with which he locsted the Qusker, Berger went after him and whaled away with both hands. Ths crowd wss In' an nproar. O'Brien bad met a man who hit him In every ex change. Ill danced In and ont, from aide to aide, and while dancing to the right ho met a left of Berger's that sent him to the ropes, and raised n lump Ilka An olive over hla right eye. Berger's seconds were wildly yelling for him to keep at O'Brien end Berger was there like "Johnny behind tbe rock.” He forced tbe Qnaker all over tbe ring, taking Jabs to smash the body with either band, and jetting n pace that wan killing. O'Brien opened tbe eecond by nmasblng bln left to Berger's noae, drawing blood, but tbe latter never stopped. He ripped left Into O'Brien's stomach that lifted the latter off the floor nnd aa O'Brien dneked tn Imaginary left Berger welted him on tbe eye with n right hook that tore n gash sn Inch wide In the Quaker's eyebrow. Blood flowed down O'Brien's facs, over his •honlder and down hln chest In a stream. Barger's glove wae toon bloody and avery time be smashed the Qnaker he left a red mark, so' thnt In n few momenta O'Brien looked more like tn Indian than a white man. In the third Berger was fighting mainly for the body. O'Brien elonted Bergv, l»th aides of tbe Jaw with left and rl*£ and was stun, twice In the body tor trouble. Berger smashed a right O'Brien's sore eye, and started the blend flowing again. O'Brien inrun, t wlrkJ left over on Berger’s eye, which e„t 7 nnd thkn there was blood on both Berger, maddened at tbe punch, O'Brien to a corner end drove a left In th. letter's stomach that mads Jack grunt and pull hi* face In as though he had bitten . quince. * foortfl wae about the worn: m uc4 of the fight for the greet O'Brien. lie,,., opened tho gash over O'Brien', left again and started the wood flowing Ties bo rushed Is as O'Brien jumped at hits and drove both left nnd right to tbe bod. O'Brien felt that more now than be bed before, and almost swung around to Ber gar'* back aa he Jabbed and held on Berger Jabbed Q'Brien In the face a second Inter O'Brien sent Ham', bred back with a left that bfonght the crowd to Its feet There was a wild jell , nl then Berger doubled np hit man with is. other left. He landed two rights to Berger'. j. T one after the other, but they had no effect* He seemed to have lost his pnneh. In ths fifth both slowed np n trifle, .Min ing to bold out for the last round. Hfrpr did not force much nnd O'Brien made f beat showing of the fight. There wae fierce mix on the ropes at tbe bell. They shook hands as the gong called theta to the center In the sixth and Berger start, od "kidding" O'Brien. The latter tried to oroM n right over aa Burger sent hla left roaming. Neither landed. O'Brien Jumped In with a left, getting a right on tbe back of the head that sent him honoring to th* ropea. He came back and jumped In at Berger again, but got a right In tbe riba that sounded all over the building. It hurt O'Brien and Berger jumped at hint, soaking right* and lefts to the bod; and Jaw so fsst that O'Brien seemed at sea. He bold like a leech until McGnlgnn broke them and started to dance away as Berger malted again. They fell Into a clinch and on the order to break, O'Brien booked Berger on the note, starting the blood again. The crowd hooted at the foul and O'Brien stopped ■ left on the Jaw tbit seemed to Mtlsfy Berger for the clout. Berger rushed O'Brien around the ring, •winging hln left to the body and laughing at the feeble jabs of hla opponent. The crowd yelled for n finish, but O'Rrlen held to tenacioualy that there was little chance for a mix. The bell eounded as Berger had him In the comer. O'Brien was booted aa he left tbe ring. Cheers tlone were lor Berger. Atlantans Are Winning in Augusta Tennis Matches SOME CHORTLES FROM A CHEERFUL GAME Not no bid for a (tarter, eh! It wan a long game, made more no by the slow manner In which the vletton tossed around the bell In the early tubings when It looked ns though J. Pluvlnn would help them ont with n downpour of rain. After the fifth they played much faster bell. All eye* were on Wallace, tbe new fielder Billy Smith landed while the teem wae sway; snd when be walked to the plgte In the Ant he got the glad hand from the crowd In n truly warm welcome. And when be got n pretty tingle nnd slid 3 feet to make second on the throw-ln maybe ho didn't deserve the applauee he got. After n little nervounnesn Is worn off and he becomes better acquainted with hts teammates he will undoubtedly he ns good at the beet of them In his position. Jim Fox appeared at the plate with a new bat and the crowd was "on" In n minute. Tbe tat le evidently filled with n new supply of hits, for tbe Ul! boy got tingle tod doable Joet when they were wanted. . Doc" pitched greet tall, and with tbe good support bad tbe game well In band at nil stages. In the tint Inning be retired the nlde in one-two-three order nnd he re peated the ntnnt eeveral times. Just to show low Msy tt was. If hs hadn't let np the Inst fsw Inning* he could have won no-hlt game. One of the funniest plays that has oc curred on the local diamond this year was that In the third Inning. Archer wee ou Bret nnd Wallace on third, nobody was out and Child! won nt the tat. A doable steal was attempted, Archer starting for second and Wallace for home. Archer got to sec ond nil right, at tbe attention of tbe vte- ttora wee given entirely to Wallace, who was caught between third nnd home. Archer k'«t on coming, however, .and although Wallace mfely retreated to third, he landed there nt the Mtne time Archer did, und the Utter was tagged out. Every man In the Infield got an MSlet on the piny. Brady wan credited with n punk hit In the fifth that wee entirely dne to a mlncne by Chi Ids . Hickey wae on first, and when Brady hit an cany grounder to pitcher, Childs threw to third, although nobody wan ever dreaming of going to that corner of the dUtaond. Juat what nude Childs do tbe stunt le hard to explain, although some body on the coaching line undoubtedly blundered. No damage was done by tbe pUy, anyway, so what’s the nset visitors In the neventb, and It wan a mighty pretty one, too. , The next three men were easy outs, however, nnd no again, what's the neel It anre did look like rain In the second nnd third Innings nnd the little sprinkling that did come only added to the feert of the font. No doubt the visitors were offer ing silent prayer* for rain before the fifth Inning, but It wan not to be and not a moment wan lost on account of the drixxle. Wallace accepted hla foor chances In a very professional manner, nnd with hi* two hits made a good Impression upon tbe local crowd, who expect great things to develop from the new youngiter. Wallace le built like Httnaon and bill* fair to become the Idol of the ladle*. Ilia t'mps Rndderham had abont the caeleet time of any official who hat held that difficult position on the local diamond thin teaaon, for not once were hie decisions questioned. And considering the Mveral fast pUys that were made and the close decisions rendered It was Indeed food work for hla amp*. The crowd wan not what wan expected for the opening day of the new home series, but the stay thU time In no long that the fenn will have. nil kinds of opportunities to tee the local boya straggle for the pen nant. Tuesday In Udles' day, and It I* tn assured fact that with any kind of de cent weather' the attendance will be np to the top notch. Far be It from na to discourage any legitimate rooting, bnt the uee of cow talln for that purpose-la very much to the Way- ernes. A fen who ha* no connlderntlon for those around him Is an undesirable addition to any tall park. Greek Throws Western Man In Fierce Wrestling Match Before a crowd of nearly 800 > follower* of the art of wrvetllng, n majority of whom were Greeks, two of the beet wrestling matches ever seen In thle vicinity were pnlled off at the Peatalres auditorium Monday night.
