We would not support Wordsworth for
another term unless we thought he could
deliver the goods on a second trial.
And feeling we do. we nominate him
this morning We suggest to the asso-
citation his election, and ask that he be
placed at the head of the team-not
nominally-but in truth.
1t would be wise to authorize Moles-
worth TO eineh certain deals that are
hanging fire for next season players.
Then go ahead and build a new park.
Get the fans satisfied and sit steady in
the boat.
1t is hoped that by another season the
fans will have developed a spirit of pa
triotsm and that they will rally to the
support of the team as they did some
years ago. Until they do there will never
be a winning aggregation in Birmingham
Unless Wordsworth is elected. it is hoped
the association will go into the big
leagues and bring down man who can
play ball himself and who can inspire
in the minds of the fans confidence in
his ability.
In other words. we insist that no ex-
pertinent be made.
In the south today there are but two
men whom we would willingly see placed
in charge of the team next season
Wordsworth first and Billy Smith of At
lanta second
Heisman, president of the Atlanta club,
will take charge next season. and Bill
is going to kick over the traces, as Bill
should do.
other than these two, none will do.
We believe some action should be taken
at the present time.
The daily attacks made on Wordsworth
with the view of rafting him to such
an extent that he will appear to disad-
vantage and, in an unsettled state OF
mind, lose more games than he would
otherwise, will not be checked until some
nositive conclusion is reached.
So let's settle the business one way
or the other as early as possible.

Newport Tennis Reaches Semi-FinaIs
Stage.


Newport, r. T., August A.-The east
the national lawn tennis tournament on
the Newport Casino courts tomorrow.
From today's play in the sixth round
three emerged victorious. William
Clothier of Philadelphia, winner OF the
national title in 1906; Thomas C. Bundy of
Los Angeles, M. q. Mclaughlin of San
Francisco, holder with G. J. James Of
the Pacific coast doubles championship,
and G. F. Touchard of New York. To-
morrow Clothier will meet Bundy and
but one of today's matches were decided
in straight sets, Clothier dsposing of E.
H. Whitney, the young Longwood player
and Harvard interscholastic champion
Bundy defeating w. b. Cragin, Jr.. the
New York miltiaman, who yesterday sur
prised the gallery by winning from T. r.
Pelf and Mclaughlin putting r. Palmer
the New Jersey champion, out of the
tournament The fourth match between
Touchard and F. c. Inman of New York,
the metropolitan champion, was hotly
contested, and went full Ave sets.
Among the followers of the game the
chief interest In the game today was the
triumphal progress through the various
rounds of Mclaughlin, the speedy young
Californian. In only one of the FIVE
matches he has played in this event has
he failed to win in straight sets, the ex-
ception being his FIVE set match against
his fellow Californian, Melville II. Long
which stands out as the best contest Of
the tournament thus far.

Last night The -Herald's New Or
leans correspondent inquired for instruc-
tons as to whether or not he should send
a story 10 the effect that George Robe,
Pelican third baseman. will manage the
Barons next season.
Because the story from beginning to
end. is fake. it was not ordered. So
foolish did it appear in fact that no in
curry was made among the members of
the local association. 1t was simply pat
ent that the item contained no truth.
The report to the effect that Robe is
slated for the management of the Barons
next season was born in the fertile brain
of Charlie Frank and narrated by the
fluent tongue Of Charlie Frank to the sec
rotary of the chubby Dutehman, Hamil-
ton. the gossip of the Item.
The Age Herald has already informed
the fans as to the reason Frank spread
this tale 1t was to excuse his action i'm
attempting to cut Rohe adrift. For the
same reason Frank told Hamilton an
other bit of gossip which was fabrica-
ton out of the whole coth-and that was
that Birmingham had offered $500 and
Rafts for Robe when matter of fact
the boot was offered by Frank.
And the allegation that Wordsworth
checked the Raftis- Rome deal because the
manager had fear that Rohe would sup
plant him as manager is another fabrica-
ton, pure and simple, and is worthy only
of such a fellow as Dutch Charlie.
As a matter of fact. Wordsworth was
very anxious for the deal to go through.
1t was a very advantageous deal for Br-
lningham. Raftis was admittedly laying
down on the association because the as
ISOLATION refused TO pay him for the 10
DAYS he spent in New York with his wife
Raftis was playing bone head variety
of baseball and making an error every
day in a critical moment Fool plays by
Raftis, In fact, aroused the suspicion of
some of the other players, and caused his
dismissal from active service and his ses-
sion on the bench.
And another Molesworth is not
CRYING for another term as manager of
the Barons From conversation that we
have had with him he would like to re-
turn. but he has not asked for the job
another term, nor will he do so.

each team is allowed the privilege OF i'm
porting as many men as possible Both
teams have taken advantage of this and

IF I look younger than I am"
stated he, ut is because l have always
taken exercise, nd have always given
freedom to the physical man."
DIR. Anderson talks Interestingly of
sport and athletics at Yale
There is a tendency on the part of
the bigger universities to fall away to
a certain extent from basketball. The
Basketball Intercollegiate association
has gone to pieces. At Yale the sport
has many friends, of course, and the
team of the ensuing season will proba-
bly, be a better one than that of last.
Football and baseball are on boom
of course, as they always are. Foot
ball was a success last fall and base
ball this spring. The great Coe, per-
haps the greatest exponent of the grid
iron game, will be returned this fall.
and he is almost a team within him
self.
Crews Too Light.
at is pretty generally admitted that
Yale has made a mistake during the
last several years in having the Nom
bers of it's crews too light. 1t Is safe
to say that the men making the crews
next season will be heavier than those
the past season. As is remembered, at
the conclusion of the Harvard races
this year the captain of the Yale crew
fell exhausted. OF course, the size of
our crew did not directly cause our
downfall before Harvard. Harvard
simply had us outclassed In this re-
spect, although We are going after our
mortal enemies another year. The cry
at Yale now is Down with the crew OF
Harvard and Harvard's crew Will be
downed, 1t is our opinion"

Detroit August 24-After the Philadei-

day, scoring four runs before Detroit
counted, the locals knocked Krause on

an error and a base on balls, and result

The game ended to in Detroit's favor
and WAS a free hitting contest. with con-
siderable loose play on both sides. An
opportunity for the visitors to win the
game was offered In the ninth inning,
which closed with the bases filed.
The batting of Hartsei and the timely
hitting of Crawford, Cobb and Murphy,
were notable features Delehanty made

Anderson Great Athlete.
Mr.. Anderson is a great gymnast, and

1t is the intention of the governors

There was a gathering yesterday after

Wordsworth has been a very sensible
ball player. He has saved his money and
is not dependent on his salary. He states
that he would go into some other business
if he could make more money by so do
ing. He states that at the close of the
present season he will have about $4,000
in cash and he owns little farm up in
Maryland So if Wordsworth is not re-
turned as manager he viii simply retire
from the game and settle down to farm
ing.
lie will not play baseball in Birming-
ham under the management of another.
But returning to the subject
Whereas the association has done many
things which. in our opinion, were I'M
wise, It cannot be possible that the Robe
matter is given serious consideration.
Rohe is broken down as a player, and
Will not be in the league next season. He
has never given any signs of managerial
ability. although he possesses such abil-
ity. it is possible.
But should the association in some mo-
ment of mental alteration turn the reins
over to the Pelican third-saeker, then the
association will have laid on the straw
which breaks the cameFs back.
Should the association make a cndnSe,
it is hardly possible that any other save
a big man is obtained.
To experiment means the suicide of
profits.
1t will cause a spirit of disbursement
before the cracking of the season, and
will scatter the present friends of base
ball in Birmingham to the four winds of
the heavens.
We favor Wordsworth for another term
as manager
He has learned a great deal this season
and this experience will stand him well
in hand.
Experience is necessary in the making
of a manager as in the rounding out Of
ball players.
Wordsworth has been conscientious to a
degree, and has been up against one of
the stiffest propositions imaginable. He
has never had the support of the fans
nor of the press. He has been knocked
from the opening of the season to the
present He was criticised even a month
before the beginning of the race.
Then he has had other troubles. He
has been interfered with in the man
agement of the club. And he has had
about the toughest luck of any man in
the league.
