SATURDAY, MAY 2U.
IN BRILLIANT TWELVE INNING GAME
< THE SENATORS AND TOURISTS TIE
Fighting An Up-Hill Battle the Locals Tie in Eighth---Three
Double Plays By Senators and Catches By Burrus and
McDuff Feature the Contest.
Playing a brilliant up-hill game,
Tourists yesterday tied Montgomery in
the eighth inning and carried the game
to twelve innings for a 4-to-4 tie. The
game was marred by few errors and feat
ured in the main by brilliant fielding
on the part of both teams. Both the
Senators and the locals had several
chances to win but great fielding and
steady pitching in every case retired the
side.
The fielding features were a one-hand
ed stab of a hard hit line ball which
Burrus got with one hand and a left
handed stop by McDuff of a ground ball
from McClesky’s bat. The ball was la
beled hit but McDuff disagreed with the
label and after making a wonderful stop
he made an equally wonderful recovery
and throw, getting the left-gardner of
the visitors at first base.
Augusta had a fine chance to win the
game in the ninth. After Eubanks had
flown out to center. Brooks hit to Hutch
ens, who threw wild to Hodge, the lat
ter covering first. Brooks went to sec
ond. Brazier hit one between short and
third that was safe. Brooks tried to
come home on the hit and was thrown
out at the plate. Clare whipped the ball
to second and Brazier was tagged, com
pleting a beautiful double play. In the
twelfth after Brazier had walked Heck
flew out to right field and Propst threw
to Hutchens completing another double
play.
The Senators threw a scare into some
thousan drabid fans in the eleventh rack
when Bowden .first man up. singled
cleanly to right. McCiesxy and Crowell
eased things by flying out. Clare, who
had just presented Augusta with the ty
ing run in the eighth, singled to left,
Bowden, bearing a great resemblance to
a greased streak, tore to third. He was
going too fast to use the emergency and
over-ran third. He «ras thrown out—
Brazier to Burrus to Heck.
The Senators’ Runs.
In the first inning, with one out, Par
ker drew four balls and ambled to first.
Bowden hit for two bases, landing Par
ker on third. McClesky singled to cen
ter and Bowden and Parker counted in.
Clare fanned.
In the second rack Hutchens singled to
right, went to second on Ward’s sacri
fice. Ward was out to Brouthers, unas
sisted. Hodge couldn’t connect with
Brooks’ delivery. Propst singled, scoring
Hutchens. Propst tried to steal and
thereby retired the side.
The visitors secured their last tally in
the fourth. Crowell singled. Clare bunt
ed to Brooks who threw low to Brouth
ers and both runners were safe. Hutch
ens singled again and Crowell scored.
Ward’s sacrifice landed Hutchens on sec
ond and Clare on third. Hodge hit to
Heck and Clare was out at the plate,
Hodge being safe on a fielder’s choice.
Hutchens was caught off third, Eubanks

Only fast .active fellows belong on
the short-field. You must be a good
sprinter, quick to start and stop, an
accurate thrower, and, In general, act
as emegency second and third-sacker.
Oftentimes you will be required to
field the ball on the dead run and make
ea dead stop In order to make a fast
pey to first.
Oet Into the plays when a runner is
caught between buses. Don't make too
many throws In play. .Start at full
speed and get the runner In action and
then throw to the fielder in front of
the m«n.
Learn all the signals of the team
thoroughly. Memorize those used be
tween the catcher and the first, and sec
ond baseman so that you will he posted
on approaching plays and able to back
them up promptly.
Playing short offers many chances
for individual star plays and the work
of a good man will have a great effect
on the score card.
Don’t throw the ball until you urn
sure you are going to get It In the bands
of the man who is waiting to receive
it. Don't be overanxious.

YELLOWJAGKETS GO
DOWN TO GEORGIA
(By Hal Reynolds.)
Between 4,000 and 5,000 fans saw Geor
gia defeat Tech yesterday afternoon at
Grant field, the score being 4 to 2. This
victory for Georgia gives them a big edge
on the series, as the two teams split the
two games in Athens.
There was not the slightest ill feeling
exhibited between the two student bodies
or any individual partisans of the two
teams. On the contrary, the best of
spirit prevailed during me game and
after the contest was over.
The Georgia band was over in force and
started the afternoon’s music with
"Rambling Wreck.’’ followed by a yell
for Tech by the Red and Black rooters.
The Tech musicians immediately came
back with "Glory to Old Georgia,” fol
lowed by a yell for Georgia.
Pitchers In Form.
Westbrook, for Georgia, and Bryant,
for Tech, were the hurling selections of
the two couches. Contrary to tne fusil
lade of hits that each was accorded in
Athens last week, they had the batters
of both teams guessing continuously yes
terday. Taking into consideration the
fact that Bryant was facing the strong
er batting line-up, there was very lit
tle to choose between tho two.
After Bryant had been hit in the open
ing inning for three doubles ho steadied
down and twirled good ball. Two other
runs were scored by Georgia in the
-fourth, —but tfresfr Tame through an er
ror. Bryant fanned eight men, most
of those coming when runnners wore
within scoring distance of the plate. Out
side of the hits, Georgia sent but two
other balls to the outfield.
Bryant came out of a bad hole in the
fifth inning when, with but one man
down, Georgia had runners on second
and third. The next hatter, Gillis.
was retired on an infield out, and the
succeeding hitter, Rawson. fanned.
Westbrook hurled a steady and care
ful game throughout the nine rounds.
Outside of the two men who scored, no
Tech man got any farther than second
base. Toward tlie latto* naif of tho
game, Tech got to hitting him rather
sharply, hut ad of their smashes carried
straight to some Georgia fielder, who
promptly throw the runner out.
Both teams backed up their hurler in !
fast form, although the stops by Georgia ,
bordered on tin* sensational. Clements
especially threw out a number of Tech
men on had bounding balls.
Clements put up a great game for
Georgia, both on the at lack and in the
field. lie started the Georgia scoring
in the first inning l»y counting after
sending a double to right. Hi.- other hit
was a v oil-placed bunt down the third
base line.
Holden made two nice stops of hard hit
balls that were headed for left field.
Hill pulled off some flashy fielding on
some hard chances. Once he went back
Into short left field, stopped Henderson’s
grounder and made a quick throw to J.
.Smith, catching Davis, who was on sec
ond. Another time ho scooped up a
grounder, tagged second and threw to
Preas, completing a double play.
Preas was the only Tech man to hit
Westbrook for more than one hit, he get
ting two.
The Runs.
Georgia jumped into a two-run lead In
the opening inning by hitting Bryant for
three doubles before he was garmed up
good. With one down, Clements double
to right, which was followed by two two
base clouts to left field oy Henderson
and Erwin, scoring two runs.
The Red and Black got their other two
