SUNDAY, AUGUST 23. JERRY ON THE JOB ..... Guess This Cobbler Wasn't a Wise One; Oh, No / \ _ 'gffi I \MEU--l . i_ ' raMB lv - lißiiMi-• * rBWw 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 To Most Valuable Augusta Player Tomorrow Directly Alter Game 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 your committee decide and be prepared to present after the same Monday after noon, to the most valuable player on the 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. Snyder Also Contributed 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.
