STUDIE8 IN EXPRE88ION BY CARTOONIST BREWERTON.
SMITH WILL SCOUT THROUGH CENTRAL
WHEN SOUTHERN SEASON HAS ENDED
Manager Billy Smith la spending a lot of
time these days studying Central league
schedule* and consulting time tables of
the railroads which VIII carry him to
Grand Itaplds, Kprlngtteld. Canton, Dayton,
Wheeling. Rrsnsvlllc, South Itend and
Terre Haute. As soon as the season ends,
he Is going to dash Into the Central
League and see If anything Is stirring In
the line of available players.
Manager Hinltti believes that there Is a
lot of good material In the Central I^cague,
and that he can land some good players
by draft. Anyway, he Is going up there to
take a look around and to take a shy at
the game.
The Central League Is made up of good-
slsed cities and fine baseball Is played
there. All the teams ore fast, and most
of the players In that league would rnuk
pretty well with any players In the South
ern League. Yet the Central League Is
in Class II, and Is. therefore, subject to |
draft from the Southern. Also, the Cen- !
tral League teams can lose two players, |
Instead of one as In the Southern. lu con- !
sequence, the Atlanta team Is likely to
"have some ex-Centml Leaguers on . r t wbiu f
•he next seal on opens.
Tom Hughes, the best Atlanta plt.'her, I
will figure In the wind-up of the Ameri- -
cat: League season, and possibly in tbo 1
world’a championship. Hughes will report |
to 1 he New York team September la tti j
Washington. Ho will protubly pitch his >
last game In the Southern about September t
IS, and will Jump right for Washington.
With Clark (Irifflth straining every nerve
In his attempt to win the Amerlcau
League pennant, and with his pitchers
pretty well worked out. It Is likely that
lie will use Hughes quite a hit during the
four weeks which will Intervene between
the time Hughes reports and the end of
the season.
If New York wins the American league
pennant, as now looks reasonably probable,
and If Hughes pitches good ball for New
York. It Is among the possibilities that
the Atlanta player may figure lu
world's championship. a* Dygert, of New
Orleans, did last year—only more promi
nently. Dygert was only there for a divi
sion of spoils, while Hughes may get In the
actual combat. .
Spade has not reported up to yet, and
It Is not likely that he will during the
renmluder of the senton. Ills arm was
hurt lu one of the games in Augusta, and
he Is not In shape to pitch at present.
Manager Smith bus about closed with
John Fox to pitch a game or two before
the sen Am ends. He needs a man to
take Doc Cbllds’ place, and John Fox
seems to t»e the man.

WARMEST INTEREST FELT IN ENGLAND AND AMERICA
OVER SATURDAY’S CAMBRIDGE-HARVARD BOAT RACE
By PrlTiti- Ixnwil tvir«-.
Putney. Sept. 7.—An the time net for
the rowing content between Cambridge
and Harvard drawn near, lnterent In
the American oaremen Increaaee. A
great many complimentary thlngn are
being said about the Yankees and a
great many foollnh things ns well. The
greatest Interest Is being expressed on
the condition of the men and consider
able mystery surrounds their method
of training. Rumor hna It that the men
are given a sort of "training mixture-
each night, composed of a tablespoon
ful of brimstone nnd treacle.
Report la to the effect that night and
morning men pnrtake of thick gruel
and cod liver oil.
When this report was told to one of
the members of.the Harvard crew, who
xvaa also to tell the secret of their fit
ness, he snld: "I guess you'd like to
know what It Is, all right, but you see
' It's a dead secret. Nobody will ex
cept ourselves until after the race. It
will come as a greet surprlsc.”
(Srent Interest ts manifested In Lon
don In the race, which will take place
tomorrow, over the historic Thumoa
course, from Mortlake to I-utney. Ever
since the arrival of the Harvard crew
In England the pnpere here have de
voted columns to the work of the two
. rights. In speaking of the event to
day a representative of the Harvard
crew said:
"The Harvard men are In excellent
condition and we are confident of vic
tory tomorrow. While we naturally
regret thnt (Hass will not be able to
row, we regard Morgan as a satisfac
tory substitute. We are entirely sat
isfied with the course and with the ar
rangements thnt hnve been made.”
Regret Is.expressed that King Ed
Ward will be unable to attend the race.
The royul family will be represented,
however, and It Is safe to say that
there will be no more Interested spec
tator among the thousands who will
line the bunks of tho Thames than
Prince Edward of Wales, who hus
taken the Ilvellret Interest In the Har
vard crew ever since Its arrival here.
It Is believed that If the eight from tile
other side of the Atlantic loses the race
there will be a young scion of royalty
minus some pocket money, though this
Is u matter of which the young prince
refuses to speak.
Mnny high British officials have ac
cepted Invitations to attend the race,
nnd Ambassador Held and nil Hie at
taches of the Amerlcnn embassy will
be present. It Is tbs evident Intention
of the English promoters of the contest
to make It an International rather than
n merely nthlftlc event. In the hope of
thereby fostering the friendly rivalry
of the two countries.
Tho Cnmhrldge oarsmen are a strong,
wiry crew with plenty of exporlenco
and u good command of watermanship.
The striking difference between tho
llarvnrd nnd Cambridge crews Is that
the Cambridge oarsmen catch much
harder and at the finish go much far-
A STORY ABOUT ARUNDEL
Did any of you readers ever hear the story of -Tug" Arundel, the
' famous Chicago catcher, and how he lost a game some years, ago by
giving chase to a struck-out batter? MrOraw Is reaisinslble for the
tale, and If you have any doubts about It, ask him.
The baees were full at the time, and Baltimore beetled three runs
to win. Steve Brodle came up ami, after swinging viciously, mlssetl
the third strike. Arundel always believed he could bent Hrodle running,
and after ho dropped that third strike lie was determined to show him.
"Tug" refused to throw the bull lo llfst, bill, living Into a rage,
yelled "1 can catch you with web feet!" nnd started nfter the fleeing
Brodle lo touch him with the hull.
The teem wae yolllng like mad nt Arundel to throw the hall, but his'
mind waa fsot" Past first they went like two thoroughbreds, and around
the diamond the sprint continued. Brodle kept two feet ahead until they
reached the home plate, and then for the first time Arundel realized thnt
he bad chased In four runs und lost tho game.—New York Evening

ther back than their opponent*. An
other very marked difference between
the two crew* I* in the body awing.
The Cambridge oarsmen go no further
forward, but at the flnlsh they swing
much further back than the Harvard
men. The theory of this stroke I* that
when the oarsmen get tired and their
arms, legs and backs are hardly able
to work, the weight of their bodies will
still move the oars through the water
and send the boat along.
To compensate for their shorter body
awing the Harvard men have a longer*
slide. The Cambridge slides are rigged
for 16 Inches and Harvard's for 2t
Inches. Neither crew uses all the dis
tance It can use, but Harvard probably
slides five or six Inches further than
Cambridge. Whether this additional

The Cambridge crew Is practically

with the exception of the substitute
for Glass, Is the same as that which
was victorious over Yale at New Lon

which only rowing experts are able to
answer.
The equipment of the two crews
does not differ much. The Cambridge

1’p to the eighth Inning, Atluntn had only two rmrs, which were brtrd earned
by MU|M'rlor baseball—or, perhaps, because of Little Rock's Inferior playing.

15 Decatur SL Kimball Housn
It was with deep regret that the
members of the Atlanta Athletic Club
and the many tennis enthusiasts In
Atlanta learned of the defeat of Nat
Thornton in Cincinnati Thursday by
Robert LeRoy, of New York. The lo
cal man waa downed by scores of
6-2, 6-2.
In many ways the showing of Thorn
ton was the best ever made by any
Southern tennis player. The Cincin
nati tournament was the largest ever
held on clay courts In this country
and the class of the entries was very
high.
Krelgh Collins, the man Thornton
beat Wednesday, has been tanked for
the past eight years among the first
tennis players In the United States,
and he was one of the men sent to
England this year In quest of the Dlvls
trophy. To down a man of this cali-
Thore seemed to lie something nliout the
corves nnd shoots of Keith that Just suited
Otto Jordan, for “Dutch" hit the ball three
of the four times he was at bat. Aim* he
stole home with neatness nnd dispatch
wheu Fox wandered In on apparently aim-
lesa manner off first base and kept the
whole bunch of Traveler/ Interested for the
desired length of time. ■
No better throw from the outfield has
been made nt Piedmont park thla year than
thnt of Wallace Thursday, when he caught
Dougins' fly nnd doubled Kenitnerllng nt
the plate. Smith stepped right where he
wnnted the ball to come before Wallace
had It In Ills hands, nnd Bob turned the
ball back to him on . the fly nnd with such
good atm that Sld did not have to move out
of his tracks.
.Poor Keminerllng was oat'so far that It
was quite pitiful to see him trying to get
home.
Dick Ilarley Just naturally didn't
ber was certainly a high honor for any
Southern player.
The showing of Thornton Is en
couraging, as It show’s what Southern
players have a chance to do on dirt
courts. In the past Southern players
Invading the North have gone to New
port or elsewhere, where grass courts
were used. These courts were entirely
different from the ones which South
ern players outside of New Orleans
were used to, and they were so greatly
handicapped by the change from one
kind of a court to another that they
never mode much of a showing. The
work of Thornton leads Southern play
ers to believe that they would have a
good chance with any player* of simi
lar experience In any part of the
country.
The officials of the Southern Tennis
Association are much encouraged at
the showing of the players sent from
the South and will have a team In
the trl-state tournament every year
hereafter.
