PIRATES FAIL TO LAND THE TREASURE.
G1LKS TO LEAD A TEAM
INTO “DARKEST HAVANA”
Manager Gllka Is as busy as a hill of
ant* theso days, getting together the
team which he will carry to Cuba on a
barnstorming trip.
The backers of baseball In Havana
opened negotiations ' with Manager
Frank, of New Orleans, but Charley
did not want the Job and turned It over
to Bobby Gllks, who Is now enlisting
his team.
Already Lee Garvin and "Little Eva"
Wilhelm have signed for the engage
ment. and probably a couple of men
will be taken from the Shreveport
team. Manager Gllks wanted Absteln
and Byrne, but the former la going to
Pittsburg and the latter Is not In good
condition. Gllks will also do a little
canvassing among the local players. He
would like to land Fox to cover first
base for him.
The team leaves the United States
October 15 and will be gone six weeks.
Practically all of the lime will be spent
In Havana, playing with the Innumer
able teams In that city.
Manager Gllks made his first trip to
Cuba as a ball player some fifteen
years ago, and says that the game was
pretty rough down there then.
He Is not worried that the present
excitement In Cuba will bother his
baseball team- As they play In Havana
and as Cuban revolutions are seldom of
sufficient seriousness to be- worthy of
great notice. Manager Gllks believes
that his team will play to good crowds
—revolution or no revolution.
Will Play Twice Wednesday
If Crackers Win Tuesday
A double-header la on at Piedmont
park Tuesday and perhaps one. will be
played Wednesday, to decide the game
wjilch was left unsettled at sunset
Monday.
The question of a game Wednesday
will not be settled Until Tuesday night.
If Atlanta wins both games cf Tues
day's double-header, then the Crackers
will still be In the race for second
place, and Manager Smith will play a
double-header Wednesday. If the
team loses both games Tuesday, then
no more double-headers with Shreve
port.
HUGO KELLY VS. SAILOR BURKE.
Special to The Georgian. ,
Boston, Sept. 11.—A fifteen-round bout be
tween Hugo Kelly and Bailor Burke Is the
scheduled attraction arranged by the Lin
coln Club of Cholsea for Its patrons to
night. A lively contest Is anticipated, ns
both Kelly and Burke have recently shown
up well. Kelly dlxtlngulshed himself two
weeks ngo by knocking out Tony Cnponl,
while Burke still rests on his reputation ac
quired by knocking out Joe Grim.
SIBLEY BACK
AT STONE NT.
Jesse Sibley, one of the best nil-round
athletes who ever graduated from.Vander
bilt, will be at the University School it
Stone Mountain this year as Instructor and
will assist Coach Beaver In devloping the
football teadi. He will also coach the base
ball team In the spring.
Mr. Sibley .will not go. back to Vanderbilt
this year, ns waa reported from Nashville.
He may, however, do post-graduate work
at Johns Hopkins next year.
G. M. L Football Team Starts
Work With Fair Prospects
The Georgln Military Academy football
team linn gone to work In earnest under the
direction of Coach Patterson, the strenuous
dlsdple of Dan McGuIgsn, Hurry-up Yost's
trusted lieutenant.
Pour of Inst year's regulars, two of last
year's tuba and a doxen likely looking new
men are on hand and it seema probable that
n team will be turned out which will be n
credit to the college, though It will mean
plenty of hard work for the coach, the regu
lars and the scrubs.
The old men who are back are Houghton,
Whitley, Merrln and Clarke, while the aubs
who will try for the regular team tbla year
re Doty ntid Forbes.
Among the new men who look promising
are Kupperbush, Byrd. Willingham. Akins,
Summerlnnd, Alford, Mny, Griffin, Wilson,
Colley, anil Hnlnes.
For the present Coach Patterson la. put
ting his men through only the very lightest
work nnd the candidates will not be hur
ried for severnl weeks. Patterson Is a firm
believer In slow development nnd will take
his time with the O. M. A. team.
Mr. Patterson, who has studied football
under three different caaehes nnd played
with Vanderbilt against teams •from Michi
gan, to Texns, does not take much stock
Iti tlie new rules.
“There nppenr to be two sets of rules this
year—one for the public and the other for
the players. As far ns I can see, the com
mlttee has not done much. The rules re
quire two umpires, but you can have oue If
you wnnt; the rules allow a forward pass,
but If tbe ball touches the ground it
over, nnd the new rules require your team
to make ten yards on three downs Instead
of five yards, so that the players will have
to work twice ns bard ns before. I don’t
look for any radical chunges under the
new rules."

could not finish In the money. He was

Belmont's Don Enrique, 30 to 1, sec
ond and Horace E. third.
