Silver Bat
and Ball Be
Presented
Winding Up ol Sallie Season Here
Manager “Babe” Brouthers will pitot
his crew of Combacks back to Augusta
today in order to play the last series of
baseball in the South Atlantic League
season in this city during the first part
of this week. The Savannah Indians will
also prance into this region along with
the local club, being the contestants.
Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday will
be the last chance that the fans in this
section will have to see a Sallie game
in this city this season. Now tlie se
ries with the Indians is the last chance
for the Combacks to get their “revenge”
—for the treatment received in Savannah
in regards to that Shaw matter and then
for the defeats suffered down there. As
the prospects look it is going to be some
war, the main battle coming Monday.
“General” Brouthers will probably use
his “big gun,” Winohell, to fire the first
shot.
Now, from the angle of the bug, its
thought that the local club has done won
derfully under the circumstances and de
serves a great deal of praise and that
the fans should show their appreciation
of the sact —not referring to the few that
have stuck by the baseball association
through “thick and thin” —but a few
fans that go once in a while to witness
the games; all go down to the park for
these three remaining games, filling the
stands, it’ll help towards wining that pen
nant next year.
Take for example, Columbia: The
Comer moguls had plenty of monev to
start on, which the Augusta club did not,
yet the Combacks have fared better than
a team that started under the same con
dition as they did, and then a little cash
to back them up with. Yet the ham
mer-slingers are working for all they are
worth. Funny life, itsn’t it? Think this
proposition over, giving it deep thought,
and the only conclusion that can ba
Silver Bat and Ball Be Presented

Who is the Most Valuable Player on the Team?---Come Down
to the Park Monday Afternoon and Not Only “Find Out,”
But Also See the Presentation. President Kalbfleisch’s
Letter to Committee
Directly after the first game of the
series with the Savannah Indians to
morrow afternoon, the silver bat and
ball, given by Mr. L. J. Schaul to the
most valuable player on the Augusta
team, will he presented.
Here's a copy of the letter sent to the
presentation committee by President
Kalbfleisch:
Messrs. C. Henry Cohen, H. C. Roney,
W. J. Cooney, Bernard Stulb and Dec
Cotter, Augusta, Ga.
Gentlemen: The last series of games
of the Augusta baseball club will be
played at home beginning Monday, Au
gust 24th, and upon the part of the man
agement I beg to herewith request that

THIS TEAR'S PLATERS WHO
WILL BE HERE NEXT SEASON
Augusta Baseball Association Now Owns Eight Players, All
Who Will Go Towards Representing This City During
1915 Season-- Manager Br outliers Will Be a Free Agent
After the 20th of This Month---He’s Been a Good Pilot,
Making Good, Though Greatly Handicapped
The Augusta Baseball Association had
a great deal of trouble this season In tile
matter of the "money question" but has
succeeded In owning the following play
ers, wtvoae name* are given below. Theae
men will go towards composing the team
next season. Here's eight that belong
to the association:
Pitchers—N'lenhouse, Stone, Wlneholl,
Barker.
Fielders —Kelly, Burgess, Smith, Ber
ger, iprobable)
Brouthers.
Manager "Babe" Brouthera was signed
up under a year’s contract, his time ex
piring on the 29th. After this time he
will be a free agent. No statement has
been made either by Manager Brouthers
or President Kalfbleisch as to whether he
will again manage the club next year,
however, there's still plenty of time to
get together on this proposition, In fact,
a long time.
It can be said, without a doubt, re
gardless of what a few of the tuunmer
sllngera have pulled off, that Manager
'■.Brouthers Is a No. 1 pilot and that the
Augusta club could have procured no
betted- man to preside over the desllnee
of the Comba< ks
Brouthere took this proposition (the
local team) starting on absolutely noth
ing and whipped It into shape, making
It a team that Is known throughout the
circuit as a "good one." It c* n t>e
truthfully said that obliterating the
"m'x-up" that occurred about a monln
ago. that "Babe" would have come
Combacks vs. Indians Tomorrow
reached is, that the Combacks are
“there.” Now that it is decided that
they are “there.” lets all go down to tlie
park for this last series and give the
club something to start on next season.
It was gleaned from a reliable source,
that there will be no post-season affair
next year. We should “ka-bibble” in
regards to this piece of information—
It’ll mean a “longer run for the money.”
Maybe Mackert. the Augusta cast-off
hasn’t been working hard to “show-up”
the Combacks during the past series
down in Charleston —attempted 10 snove
Smith’s face in one day ayd then turns
around the next day and scores from
second while Stone is tagging out a run
ner, almost at the home plate. Mac
should use a little judgment about that
face of Smith’s, for the local outgaruner
need that ornament. And thenagain,
Smith should think of Miic’s side, mayoe
—sometimes.
Well, lets concnestrate a little thought
on the three last games in Augusta
then for the pigskin.
Only one msre series apiece to each
South Atlantic League city will be dis
tributed. Here’s how they wind up:
Savannah at Augusta; Columbia at
Charleston; Augusta at Columbia; Char
leston at Savannah; Jacksonville at Al
ba nv; Albany at Columbus; Mac m at
Jacksonville and Columbus at Macon.
That’s the entire schedule for the Sal ie.
Then comes the championship series o c
the league.
About Wednesday, as the season closes
here then, President Kalbfleisch will
give the Herald, for publication, a stae
ment of the finances of the Augusta club
—said staement will show where every
dollar has been spent.
Augusta club, the silver trophy offered
by Mr. L. J. Schaul.
The question as to who is the most
valuable player, the presentation, etc.,
to be entirely conducted by your com
mittee.
Yours very truly,
E. G. KALBFLEISCH,
President.
Just who will get the “sets” could not
be learned by The Herald. Thefre are
several players who have been working
hard lately, and then there are several
more who have been working hard
throughout the season.
Now who is the most valuable man on
the team? Well, be down to the park
Monday afternoon, you will not only find
out, but will also see the presentation.
mighty close to copping this second half.
Where he got the players that he did
get hold of, and good ones at that,
can't be learned—at least that's his bus
iness—he certainly knows how to get
them.
K nockert.
There are a certain set of knockers In
this town that are hitting Brouthers for
all they are worth, and for what? Noth
ing! Of course he made a few errors,
they all do. But when the work that
he ha* done, building the team up from
the ground Is taken into consld'Tatlon,
why there’s nothing to it but that
"Babe” is the one and only manager in
the South Atlantic League that can real
ly he put down at a pilot that looks
after the Interests of the town he rep
resents.”
It ha* all been carefully gone over, his
few had points, and his many good ones,
and the conclusion is that '■B.ibe”
Brouthers Is wanted back here to man
age the Augusta club during the 1913
season. If he doe*, the good old city of
Augusta Is certainly due to have a
! pennant winner He ha* the material
to start on next year: he did not have
It till* season. Things are going to he
different in 1915.
Brouthers is hitting just ns hard as
the rest of them: fielding just as good
and with all that has hullt upa club that
has held a prominent part In the race.
Our motto: ’ Babe’’ Brouthers aa man
ager during the 1915 season.

a Lost to the Sea Gulls
Combacks Went Down to Defeat Yesterday Afternoon For
Third Consecutive Time at the Hands of Charleston Boys,
Losing By a Score of Five to Two -Game Was Featured
By Many Pretty Plays
Charleston, S. C.—The Augusta Corn
backs went down to defeat again yester
day afternoon for the third consecutive
time at the hands of the CharU‘Ston Sea
Gulls, the home boys winning out in
this instance by the score of 5 to 2. The
victory with Albany’s defeat at Macon

Gulls.
The game wns featured by many pret
ty plays, In which Burgess’ one-hand
running catch was the prize starring
event. Four doubles, two at a time, a
pair of singles, two sacrifice infield outs
and an error scored Charleston’s five
•runs. Two hits, a batter hit. a wild
pitch and a sacrifice counted the visitors*
tallies.
Taken all-in-all, the bunch from Au
gusta put up a good exhibition and a
hard fight, however Manager Hamilton
just simply had to get into that promi
nent position at the head of the per
centage column.
Immediately after the game Manager
Brouthers boarded the train for Augusta,
in order to open the i*rst game of the
last series in that city Monday.
