SOUTH ATLANTIC LEAGUES
PENNANT PLAY-OFF TODAY.

AUGUSTA, Ga. Sept. 1s.~-The South
Atlantic League directors held a warm
meeting yesterday in which the CON
troversy between the Augusta and
Chattanooga teams was aired. The de
cision went against the Augusta team.
The am forfeited to Augusta on Fri
day, September 10, WAS thrown out.
The securing of Pitcher Helm from
Columbus and Pitcher Demaree, of
Savannah, was also taken up. These
players each bought their own release
from their clubs. and then, as they
were free agents, were at liberty to
sign with Chattanooga. The Chatta-
nooga team was fined $50 by the league
for using Demaree and Helm before
their release was secured.
The action of the directors makes
three games to Chattanooga's credit
and two to Augustus. If Chattanooga
wins today the series will be over, but
If Augusta wins there will have to be a
seventh game played.

"Any player can understand a fast

has been engaged to finish the season
with the Tigers, because of the injury
TO Joe Crisp. Larkin is well thought
of by Connie Mack; in fact, this should
go without saying, as any man that
the astute Cornelius McGilicuddy car

time must have the goods or display

Ginnity made strenuous efforts to se-
cure Jack Lapp from the Athletics, but
baseball law would not permit Lapp to
return to Newark again this season.
1t is about settled that Harry VOL

next season. Wolverton has some ex-

asked Joe McGinnity TO set a price
upon his release. The price has been
named and 1t is probable that within
a few days something definite regard

sion that Wolverton would not be at

men accept it as a fact that the box

Knockout blow by Governor Hughes,
whose action prevented the Ketchel-

HUGHEY DUFFY HAS MADE
\ GOOD AS MINOR MANAGER
Great Diamond Star Should Go Higher Hi,
Opinion Of Bal-playerS That Compose a Team,
Shows His Class as Leader.

- RUGHEY DUFFY should know as much about
the great national game of baseball as any man
- - identified with the sport. He was one Of the
greatest players ever known to the game. and it must be
conceded that he is one of the successful managers;
in fact, 1t is a certainty that Duffy will not remain in
the Eastern Leagu any great length of time, but will
take charge of a major league club. Hughey believes
that If Blackburn had not been injured his team
would have won the Eastern League championship, ale
though the Grays' leader has by no means given up the
hunt. He is not one of those men who quit. His early
baseball training would not permit of any display of the
white feather, and Hughey can be permitted to go the
route, no matter whether the prospects are roseate or
of a dull-colored hue.
Duffy says that brains are what figure in baseball.
He can forgive errors Of commission but dumb plays
never. at would rather have n club composed of but
.20 batters, but still understanding players, than a
bunch who can be depended upon to hit around 300, but
could not tell thei own name If they were forced to give
a quick answer. Blackburn and Moran are two heady
