SHAKY IN MAJORS
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.)
New York —Leaders in the major league
pennant races found the going hard last
week with New York challenged for first
tfr?- N»hf tonal -hr ,St, L-Ptti* arid
Chicago and Boston fighting hard in the
American. Except for Cleveland ann
Philadelphia, in the American, the I big
league teams were about evenly matched.
Six in the National and four in the Am
erican broke even on games lost ana
won. Inclement weather caused the
ponement of 13 games in the two leagues.-
New York, in the .National, could only
break even on the four games played.
The series with Boston ended with a vic
tory and the series with Philadelphia be
gan with the defeat of Alexander. The
temporary absence of Herzog and
merman, the leading batsmen, probably
affected the playing of the Giants, St.
Louis had a hard series with Pittsburgh
and broke even in the four games, two
of which went ten innings. The Cardi
nals appear to be playing better ball than
any of the other Western teams.
Brooklyn and Boston renewed hostili
ties for 1017 on Wednesday and battled
for 12 innings to a 6-fco-G tie game. Sat
urday the Braves won through the ef
fective pitching of Tyler. Cincinnati was
the only National League team o tun
more games than it lost. The Reds took
three out of five with Chicago and broke
even in two games against Pittsburgh.
Philadelphia, in the American League,
showed their heels to the other teams
by winning throe out of four games. One
victory was gained over Washington and
two over New York. Bush pitched the
Mackmen to victory Monday and Satur
day. Chicago failed to keep up its pre
vious good pace 3nd lost three games in
a row to Cleveland. Howland s men aie
not hitting hard and the three games
thev won were each gained by one run.
The loading Eastern teams. Boston and
New York, each broke even on four
games. The Yankees took two games
from Boston early in the week, one be
ing a no-bit game by Mogridge. But
the Red Sox came back by beating Wash
ington while New York was falling before
Philadelphia. Cleveland improved and
the Indians give fair promise of repeat
ing their performance of 1916.
GULLS AND ROSES .
ARE GOINS STRONG
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.)
Savannah. —Charleston came through
the second week of play in the South At
lantic League still in the lead, hut close
ly pressed by Jacksonville, the Hoses
being only one game behind. Columbia,
with only one less win and one more de
feat than Jacksonville, completed the
first division. All. the leaders won the
same number of games during the week,
five out of seven, but results of the first
short week’s play gave the advantage in
standing to Charleston and Jacksonville.
The three leaders played most of their
games during the week with the three
second division clubs, which have not yet
hit their stride. Of the latter, Augusta,
with a dependable pitcher in Styles, won
3 and lost 4 games; Macon chalked up
2 out of a total of 7 contests, and Co
lumbus managed to get only one victory
In seven starts. The Foxes came in a
game \vhen they were outhit, 4 to 1, and
reports showed it due to Nolan, left
hander. left by Pittsburgh, who kept his
eight hits well scattered. Rube Zellars
for Macon did not do so well in the sec
ond week and the Tigers, who are trying
to strengthen their club, as are several
others, showed poorly.
The Gulls, Roses and Gamecocks were
In fine fettle, the first two having lined
up reliable pitching sU:Ts and ( olumbia
having a strong pitcher in Swartje, and
with good promises in several others.
Jacksonville fans were claiming last week
that Fulton. Hodge, Horne and Schatz
man were the class of the league
ing staff and the performances of the
four gave promise that they will make
the team feared during the season. The
Gulls also have a strong pitching staff.
Cox. Meador and Tillman showing par
ticularly well in the last six games.
First division teams will play the sec
ond division teams entirely during the
coming week and unless the elrorts to
brace up begin to show in their play
the second division Clubs will see them
selves still further away from the top
round before next Sunday. The Gulls
take on the Foxes at Columbus for three
games, then go to Macon for three more.
Jacksonville spends the week at borne
plaving first, with Augusta and then with
Columbus. Columbia will be on the road,
going first to Macon and winding up the
week at Augusta.

HIGH CLASH TODAY
AT WARREN PARK

pastime this afternoon and Tuesday af
ternoon when the Academy of Richmond
County and the Savannah High School
clash at Warren Park. The games will
be called promptly at 4 o’clock and the
contest will he underway.
Between the Academy and Savannah
High there is the keenest of rivalry. The
two schools are the oldest In the state
and endeavor to surpass each other in
every respect. Reports from the Savan
nah oarnp state that the Savannahians
are a fast bunch* while reports from the
local camp have it that the Academy
team is in prime condition, eager for the
fray. it is understood that the teams
are about evenly matched, which will
keep the contest in throughout.
The Academy rooters, however, are con
fident that when the dust of battle has
cleared away that' the locals will be the
victors. The exhibition will he fast, clean
and snappy, devoid of professionalism,
and those who like real baseball should
not fail to attend and support the locals.
Tickets are on sale at Miller’s Cigar Com
pany and the admission is the minimum,
15 and 25 cents.
Coach Hitchcock of the Academy an
nounced that Lamar will twirl for the
locals today; while In all probability Kelly

The Academy team will line-up as fol
lows: Rountree, catch; Benton, rightfleld;
Guill, second base; Lamar, pitch; Sharpe
or Hatch, leftfleld; Miller, centerfleld;
Dodge, third base; Slocum, shortstop;
Benson, first bafce.
WATCHING THE
SCOREBOARD
Yesterday’s Hero: Willie Mitchell. He
heaves the Tigers to their first victory
of the season over the White Sox—a shut
out.
It was Ty Cobb’s triple and a sacrifice
fly following which really doomed the
Sox.
Another youth rescued the Pirates. His
name is Carlson and he shut out the
Reds, 3 to D
# The Browns smashed out twelve hits to
fourteen by the Indians, but were vic
torious, 6 to 5.
Tris Speaker contributed to the after
noon with two bingles out of three ef
forts.
It required three pitchers and eleven
innings to do it, but the Cubs turned back
the Cardinals, 6 to 5.
The Yankees, Braves and Dodgers were
not satisfied with a week of it, so they
ran it over into Sunday exhibition games.
APPROXIMATELY 214 OF
BIG LEAGUE PLAYERS TO
GO BY CONSCRIPTION ACT
(OY THE UNITED PRESS.)
New York. —Baseball, to use the words
of Ban Johnson, will be honored and glo
rified by a war call to its young men who
are eligtble, according to present plans
of the war department.
Someone asked Ban if baseball would
“suffer" through selective conscription
and Johnson instantly resented the word.
Approximately 214 men In both big
leagues will he drafted, If the call goes
out before the end of the aeason. One
hundred ajid thirteen of these will come
from the American and 101 from Gov
ernor Tener’s circuit.
The fact that the American League
clubs, for the most part, are being drilled
constantly will have little effect, for what
they are learning In baseball drilling
camps would be only a beginning to the
instruction they would receive In a big
army encampment.
The only hope for a respite seems to
lie in the fact that mobilization at the
camps probably will not begin until Sep
tember, when the baseball season is rap
idly drawing near the' end. A month
might be granted the men to finish and
then report. The world's series might
suffer badly.
Among the stars of the game who are
believed to he eligible to service are
Benny Kauff of the Giants, Howard
Ehmke of the Tigers, Dave Davenport
and Allan Sothnron of the Browns, Joe
Judge and Harry Harper of the Senators,
Jesse Barnes, Walter Margnvllle, Arthur
Nehf and Bill James of the Braves, Leon
Cadore of the Dodgers. Ruther and Wort

SEVERAL AUGUSTANS
TRY FOR OFFICERS
TRAINING CAMP
Several young men of Augusta, have
returned from Atlanta where they have
been making application for entrance
to the officer's training camp to he
held at that place. Eleven of the
young men stood the examination
Sunday, and have great hopes of hav
ing passed the physical requirement.
They returned to Augusta Sunday
night. Other Augustans will leave Au
gusta during the day and night for
Atlanta.
The young Augustans who returned
Sunday night report most excellent
treatment. They were accorded ev
ery courtesy, and were examined Im
mediately upon request, and the state
ment that they desired to return to
Augusta as soon as possible.
They report that the first thing an
applicant should do should be apply
directly to Captain Heidt. Some Au
gustans have been making a try for
commissions by applying to the de
partment at tiovernor's Island. It is
pointed out though that better and
quicker results can now be obtained
by applying directly to Atlanta.
The young Augustans who have
been through the experience advise all
applicants to secure three letters of
recommendation from leading Au
gustans and catch the earliest train
for Atlanta. There are certain quali
fications which an applicant must
have. To be eligible an applicant must
be a college graduate, an under
graduate or a clearly well educated
man, and must have demonstrated In
some field of activity, either business,
atheletlcs or otherwise ability to
handle men. Certain age limits are
also In force. A man cannot be a
second lieutenant after he has passed
32, a first lieutenant after 36, a cap
tain after 40, or major after 45.
The officer's training camps at At
lanta and other points in the country
are for the purpose of supplying of
ficers for the first increment of troops
authorized by congress. About 10,000
men will be selected from the men
training at the various camps, and it
Is considered a most porpitious op
portunity for the young men of Au
gusta and of Georgia and the country
generally to secure commissions. The
Atlanta camp which will be at Fort
McPherson Is for Georgia, Florida and
Alabama. It is polqted out, however,
that unless the applications from
these states do not supply the quota
that can be accommodated, the gaps
will be tilled up by overflow applica
tions from other camps.
The training camp at Atlanta will
open on the 14th, the opening having
been postponed owing to the rush of
applicants. It is understood, although
the fact Is unconfirmed, that the men
training at the camp will be paid, a
movement now being on foot for leg
islation for that purpose.
Memorial Exercises
of U. C. T.*s Sunday
The local order of United Commercial
Travelers held memorial services Sunday
afternoon at the council hall. About two
hundred members of the organization to-
? ether with members of their families and
rlends were present to pay honor to
the memory or departed brothers. The
memoplal meeting is neld annually by
members of the order.
Rev. Z. F. Bond delivered the address
of the occasion. His subject was "Tem
perance, Unity and Charity," whlcti he
spoke on most interestingly and enter
tainingly. Mr. L. A. Dorr also made an
address In which he eulogized the mem
ory of the departed brothers. The choir
or the Second Baptist church furnished
music for the occasion.
