Two Games Nearer Pennant
After the Double-Header
Both Atlsnts and. Little Rock got what they were looking for Wednesday after
noon at Piedmont park. 'Atlanta won two games, and the Travelers collected quite
a bit of money out of the big crowd which turned out to see tbd slaughter.
So everybody, was satisfied. Of course, Zimmer would have been glad to bars
hid tha games, but ths mighty maiuma was what coanted.
Atlanta won liy all-round playing which wss better than that of Little Rock.
Zeller and Duggan bid altogether the best of tha pltchlog, and ths Atlsnts plsysrs
bit birder and oftsner and fielded In errorless fashion.
The event of the day was tbe debut of Duggan, the southpaw, wonder of ths
Inter-State League—now defunct. Elmer was shout tha most mystifying pussier that
IJtlls Rock has stacked np against this year. Up to the last Inning, when two men
were out, only one bit was registered, Bud that was s hot liner which went right Into
Otto Jordan'i hinds, but which wns too hot to handle. In the last Inning, with tbe
game won s dosen ways, "Johnny Dusgan's Little Brother" let np s bit sad two
more tingles wars counted. But no Traveler could score, tnd the game wss s
triumph for the new twlrler.

Tbe referee tapped him add ordered him
to break It, but he paid no attention. In
the meantime, Olaen waa getting In dis
tress, and tbe police took a hgnd. They
descended on the men and tried to pull
them apart. It proved to be a. trouble
some Job, however, and while they were
working, tbe crowd rose and started for the
center of activity.
After some strenuous doings, the men
were separated, and the bout was awarded
to Olaen.
At tbe door there waa n fierce attempt on

and things quieted down. Finally (he man

Philadelphia, July 1*.—Al Kaufman Is dy

Jack O'Bries. In a challenge today, this
promising Californian says be can whip
either, and do It handily. He also says
tbty are afraid of him.
"Barger," said Kaufman, "Is* In Nsw

the way to the const, and I have no chance
at elthsr him or O'Brien. Both promised
to meet me, but I guess they have changed

'O'Brien lieat me once. I waa s green

and today I am 100 per rent better. O’Brien
knows this, and h* has prepared for s

"I used to train with Ifcrger, and no men
on earth knows that I am his hts master
better than he knows this himself."
O'nrlen beard of Kaufman's remarks, and
ramo Iwok at him thus:
"I thought as much. It Just happens that
I am not going on tbnt Australian tour of

arc right, I will give Kaufman nil the show
he wants. He Is about as good n taxer as
Berger, but he hits s little stlffer."
Bob Desdy,-Kaufman's manager, Is work

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OUR 8TANDING CORRECT. O
In answer to the queries of O
several: O
The standing of the South- O
ern League, ns published In O
The Atlanta Georgian Wednes- O
day, was chrrect. O
The Georgian makes an cape- O
rial effort to keep Ite standings O
right, and they can be relied O
upon. O
O
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODOOOO
Mnnager Hanlon Is still making changes
on the Cincinnati tram. Keep It op, Ned.
There are thousands of fans who would Uke
to see the Ited tags * winner.
Ilimston wins the pennant for ths,first
half of the South Texas League season.
The second half Is now on.
TRY A WANT AD
IN THE GEORGIAN
According to Ths Atlanta Georgian,
Smith has already begun the making
of excunes. He declares that he will be
up against It good and stout In Au
gust, ns In that month he has but
seven games at home. Montgomery Is
In that fix, too, and this will practical
ly remove from Birmingham two stout
contenders. It looks then that Birming
ham, Nsw Orleans and Shreveport wilt
continue In the lead Birmingham
Age-Herald.
Billy did say that August waa going
to be a hard month, but he never Inti
mated that he did not think he would
finish It with a better standing than
Birmingham.
In spite of the fact that Frank has
strengthened, both Birmingham and
Atlanta should leave him In the rut
on this trip. If they don't, then danger
will be Imminent, as Frank will go
back home with a good standing. To
a man up a tree It looks like Frank
has derided to get the rag In spite of
everything and he will bend every ef
fort toward this end.—Birmingham
News.
From here It lookg as though Atlanta
Is about the only team In the league
which has any chance of winning the
K nnant from Frank. It will probably
the Pelicans or the Crackers--
Said Babb In Birmingham:
“If Memphis, New Orleans or Shreve
port hss a highly successful trip, either
one will have a good chance at the
rag. In other words. If these three
western clubs play fortunate on this
trip all the riuba now contending for
the pennant will stand on an equal
basla.
“As It la at present the eastern clube
near the top have tbe advantage of
schedule, and If they don't make hay
while the sun shines, they will be oust
ed from the first position.”
Atlanta Itoa certainly been right there
