Combacks Going After the Scalps of
the Wilderites—Shaw Arrived in
Augusta This Afternoon
When Manager Brouthers’ aggre
gation of baseball players marched
out on the diamond this afternoon
they all had blood in their eyes. Of
course this is only a slang phrase in
tended to convey the idea that the
Combacks are going after the scalps
of the Wilderites, for which they are.
Now that Manager “Babe” Brouth
ers ar.d his set of fighters have suc
ceeded in putting two clubs under foot
during last week's battles, the only
thing to do this week is to keep up
the mighty stride and at least put
Albany beneath (by defeating Jack
sonville) in the same manner in whicn
she did the Macon Tigers as well as
the Columbus Foxes.
As the dope stands now this little
matter will be accomplished and in a
surprisingly short space of time.
Shaw Here.
Outfielder Shaw, from Montgomery
of the Southern League, arrived in
Augusta this afternoon at 2:25 o’clock
and stated that he was in good form

MORMAN CAR AT
HIGH RATE OF SPEED
DRIVEN BV JOE DAWSON
No motor car had ever traveled at
as high a rate of speed on the Indian
apolis Speedway as did Joe Dawson
in the Marmon last Friday, when he
traversed the two and one-half miles
oval in the record breaking time of
1:36 2-5, lowering the track record
made by Louis Strang in 1910, when
he hurled his 200 horsepower Flat
around the course in 1:37 flat.
Dawson's achievement is noteworthy
for more reasons than one. In the
first place the car he drives is four
years old and has been driven in some
of the longest and hardest races, hav
ing finished fifth in the first five hun
dred mile race in 1911. The A. L.
A. M. rating is only 32 horsepower.
When it is recalled that this was
Dawson's second appearance on tb£
speedway in a racing car since 1912
his feat is a most Temarkable one.

and was ready to jump into the game
this afternoon. It has not been defi
nitely decided as to whether Brouthers
would use him in this afternoon's
game or not, but one thing is certain,
he will be used in tomorrow's game.
Shaw has played 136 games in a Class
A league and has a batting average of
.325. He will be a great addition to
the local club as he is a good man in
Montgomery but on account of having
too great a number of fielders he was
transferred to this club.
Fine Shape.
The local ball club could not be in
better shape than it is at present and
frow now until the season is over
It is going to furnish the fans in this
zone some article of ball.
Now that "Babe” has recovered suf
ficiently from his case of Charlie
Horse he puts himself back into the
game. This places Mackert into the
outer garden. Well, let’s all root for
the team that is rapidly “coming
back” although it has been handi
capped from the start.

Jake Daubert May Again Be
Rated Most Valuable Player
Brooklyn Captain and First Baseman Hitting Hard and
Fielding Well. Is Now 29 Years of Age.
(By ERNEST J. LANIGAN.)
Had the Superbas played at home
May 15th, instead of in Chicago Col
onel Ebberts could have had a Jake
Daubert Day, for the Brooklyn cap
tain then was celebrating hiß 29th
birthday. If Jake keeps up his pres
ent gait at the bat and in the field,
he stands an excellent, chance of
again being voted the player most
valuable to his team in the National
League and consequently in line to
get another Chalmers car. In his
lirlit sixteen games Robinson’s first
lieutenant amassed a batting average
of .424, going without a safety only
in one fourth of these contests. Dau
bert lias been bunching his wallops
this year, having made one Hit in
each of three games, two hits in each
of five games and three hits in each
of four games. Jake reached the
quarter century pole in base hits in
Chicago on Wednesday. Of his 25
safeties three have been doubles,
three tbriples and two home runs.
Figures show that Daubert has
been getting more than his propor
tion of Brooklyn’s hits and runs. The
Superbas have crossed the plate 75
times, Daubert having made 14 round
trips or almost 20 per cent, of the
Robbins’ tallies. The figures as to
base hits show that the Robins have
to their credit 152, of which Daubert
claims 25 —or about 10 per cent, if
Daubert had been content to matfe
just one-ninth of his team's runs and
hits he would have been credited at
the present time with a trifle more
than eight tallies and a trifle more
than sixteen hits.
Daubert is fielding this year at a
.994 clip, making only one error In
the first sixteen games he played.
This bobble did not come up intil
after he had handled 126 chances
without a break. Daubert has taken
a hand in ten duplex killings, though
he hasn’t started any.
Daubert played his first game In
the National League on April 14,
1910, in Philadelphia. Then batting
against George Washington McQuil
lan, now with the Pirates. Jake went
hitless. Then next day Daubert jar
red Lew Moran, the millionaire kid,
for a brace of singles. He failed to
get a hit on the day he made his de
but locally, which was April 20, 1910,
McQuillan pitching for the enemy
and he also failed to do any damage
to I.ow Moran's delivery on Ajiril 21.
Moving over to the Polo Grounds,
Daubert hit like a fiend, paying par
ticular attention to the manufactur
ing of triples and soon the talk about
his not being as good as Tom Jordan
died.
Another able athelete who had a
birthday May 15th, was Tony Smith,
former Supertta shortstop, now with
Sioux City Tony then was thirty
years old Secretary Herman Nicker
son of the Boston Braves is today
celebrating his forty-fourth birthday
and Business Manager Charley Wil
liams of the Chicago Feds is cele
brating his forty-third. Ere the
month ends these prominent pas
tinjers will he older:
Elmer Steele, former Superba
pitcher, will be 29 In May 17th.
Babe Adams of the Pirates, will be
31 on May 18th.
Ed. Walsh of the White Sox, will
he 32 on May 19th,
Eddie Grant of the Giants, will be
31 on May 21st.
Zach Wheat of the Superbas, will be
26 on May 24th.
Fred Jacklltsch of the Terrapins,
will be 36 on May 24th.
D. Leroy Reeves, secretary to Na
tlonal League President John Tener,
will he 32 on May 27th.
Jim Thorpe of the Giants, will be
26 on May 28th.
Mike Donlin of the Giants, will he
36 on May 30th.
“Rube” Oldring of the White Ele
phants, will be 30 on May 30th.
