TIPS FROM OTHERS.

Billy Byrne In the Memphis CONNER
cial-Appeal, declares that Harry Vaughn
is installing politics into the game; that
he is whispering charges against other
managers in the Southern league. and
that the local press, in publishing these
whispered charges. are doing the game
no good. Percy Whiting, in the Atlanta
Georgian, agrees with Billy Byrne.
The charge that Manager Vaughn die
tates to the press of Birmingham is alb
surd 1t surprises the local fans that
the Commercial-Appeal and the Atlanta
Georgian would indulge in the rot that
Charlie Lee and Charlie Fox are doping
out from New Orleans. Everyone around
the circuit knows that Birmingham is
the best behaved club in the league. Billy
Smith has caused more scandals, and
Manager Babb has recently incensed the
fans OF Memphis by following the die
tates of Charlie Frank in the Breitensten
affair. As far as strictly attending to his
own business, Vaughn has both of the
above managers skinned a block"

coming from the writer of the above,
1t seems that another of the alleged
New Orleans dopists would like to wallow
in a little gore. Over In Alabama 1t is not
believed that any of the three does for
that matter.
Around the Southern league circuit II
is generally admitted that with six OF
the eight clubs. the salary limit is
farce. Another farce is the fourteen men
reserve limit clause. This is to be re-
GREETED, but 1t is none the less true. The
exceptions are Memphis and Nashville
Memphis News-Scimitar.
Everybody Is bad but me- said the
little boy who robbed the birds nest.
Such a statement as that would Indicate
that the writer is blessed with an abund-
ant and we'll developed wit. The idea that
Memphis is guilty of no wrong 1t looks
like Little Rock would be more properly
under that head than the men of Babb.
The New Orleans Democrat takes
it's usual fling at the Atlanta team. New
Orleans is sore because Smith charged
that rubber balls were used. and now the
writer's from that city are fiinging every
thing obtainable at the Gate City. The
papers referred to thinks that Billy Smith
is incompetent. and suggests that Frank.
Vaughn or Gilks would make a better
leader.
The writer suggests that Frank be en-
ployed, given a sufficient amount of
money to go on. and then be turned loose
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1906-07-20

altogether to follow his natural inclina-
tons. All of this would indicate that
Frank is accustomed TO spending money
as he sees fit, and in just what quant
ties he desires. 1t is a virtual admission,
too, that Frank is accustomed to doing
what he pleases for the furtherance of his
schemes. All of which the eastern writer's
have contended was true.
In referring to the fact that the vest
ern managers are complaining that the
schedule is against them, Mique Finn is
quoted as follows:
1.-THE facts of the case are that up to
this point the western clubs have had by
far the best of the home game PROPOSE
tion and they cannot but expect that
the eastern teams should have the better

Otis Stockdale, in speaking of the won
derful game that he pitched Sunday, de-
clared that he threw them over the plate,
and trusted to the men behind him. He
also paid splendid compliments to Hick-
man. and declared that as soon as he
added the spit ball to his stock, nothing
can touch him. He thinks that Hickman
Is destined for the big leagues.
The Atlanta News declares that the
game that Wilhelm pitched. and the two
ad cnr1es that Shreveport pulled off with
Memphis and Nashville will proabbly go
on record as being the best of the sea-
son.

In recounting the various accomplish
ments of the president of the Southern
league, the New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat says:
What is all this talk about Judge Kav-
anaugh giving up the presidency of the
Southern league? The judge is regarded
throughout the country as one OF the
best baseball league presidents. and every
body should insist that he remain where
he is. It was Kavanaugh that brought the
Southern league up to its high standing;
It was Kavanaugh that had the Southern
league taken out of Class B by the ma
tional association and placed in Class A.
and 1t was Kavanaugh that firmly I'M
pressed the big leaguers with the fact that
the Southern leagues interests would
have to be respected. Yet Walter Taylor
and various Atlanta and Birmingham
parties have been whooping about replace
ing Judge Kavanaugh with I1owery Ar
mold. Who is Lowery Arnold. anyway
The statements are very nice concern
ing the president. nicer and truer, in fact
than it was thought the New Orleans
writer's were capable of. 1t is a character
istic of that crew, however, to spoil some
thing nice by a stab and a sting. Lowery
Arnold is an excellent gentleman, with
residence in Atlanta. and would make the
league a valuable man In case he is ever
elected to the presidency. 1t is hardly
probable, however. that he will ever be
so honored. and It Is very improbable. in
fact, that he would have the job.

pended Breitenstein. | had hoped that

up to me where I must take cognizance
of the matter. l must insist upon more
