LOCAL CARS MAY
JOIN IN A RUN
TO CHARLOTTE
ONE OR TWO FIGURING ON TRIP
TO BE MADE NEXT
MONTH.
Run Is to Be Made For Purpose of
Establishing Road From FIcrija 20
Charlotte. = Brunswick Is On .he
Proposed Route.

1t is more than likely that Bruins
wick will be represented in that big
automobile run arranged BY the Sa-
vannah auto club for the early part
of May, witch will he participated
in by q large number of Savannah
autoists and several machines from
Jacksonville and otter points in
Florida.
The run is TIE most attractive yet
arranged, and will be from Savannah
to Charlotte and thence TO New Ycrk.
At least Cne Brunswick machine is
figuring strongly on entering the run,
while one or two Others are also
considering tie trip.
All of the machines will leave from
Savannah and go to Charlotte, travel
ing the route used from New York to
Florida. At Charlotte a couple OF
days will be spent and the trip will
then be continued on to New York,
though q number of the machines may
go only as far as Charlotte.
The purpose Of this automobile run
is to establish north and south high
way, tapping the national Highway at
Charlotte, thus giving the people from
the north an excellent route to Flor
ida. The route south from Charlotte
is via Pinehurst, Camden, Columbia,
Aiken, Augusta, Savannah, Brunswick
and Jacksonville.
The Savannah auto club has sent
invitations to the automobile clubs
in all of the cities mentioned and
most of them will have cars in the
s. run. 1t is to lie hoped that Bruins
wick will be represented by at least
one car, inasmuch as this city is on
the most important. automobile higt-
way in the south.

BOATS WILL BE
OPERATED BY
PEOPLES LINE
LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL AGAIN
BE OPPOSITION TO ISLAND
THIS SUMMER.
If Supreme Court Decides Against the
Peoples Line, Case Will Likely Be
Appealed to the United State Su-
preme Court.

VIII there be an opposition boat
line to St Simon this season?
While the officers of the Peoples
Line, which operated the steamers
Ellen and Atlantic to the island
throughout last summer, nave not any
thing to say on the subject, it is un,
derstood that they are getting ready
Tor the season and will again have
the Ellen on the run regularly while
the Atlantic will make Sunday trips.

which has been in the courts for al
most year, is still Icing fought out.
ana although most of the decisions
have favored the St Simon Transit
Company, still there are many who
believe the other line will yet win ont.
The case is at present before the
supreme court. A decision from that
body is awaited with interest. It is
rumored that if the case is again de-
cidl1 III favor of the st. Simon Tran
sit company that the Peoples Line
will give bond and then appeal the
case to the United States court, which
will enable them to operate steamers
until the highest tribunal in the coun-
try decides the case.
The points involved in the case are
among TIE most interesting that have
ever been. up before the state courts
and the case has attracted more than
usual attention. In the first,fight the
transit company won out and the de.
clsion of the lower court was sustain.
ed by the supreme court. Then an
other case was brought and again it
was carried to the higher court. but
sas vet no decision has been rendered.
It is understood that the owners
ot the steamer Ellen will shorty make
number of improvements on the
Doat and that she will Re ready for
operation to~tle island by May first.

Sox. and Henley, of Philadelphia, had
turned the trick in 1904 and 1905.
Young came back in 1908 and repeated.
Addie Joss, of Cleveland (now dead)
shared the 1908 honors with Young
and again pitched a no-hit game in
1915. That same year Bender, of Phil
delphia, hung up his record perform
ance. 1t was the last no-hit game un-
til Woods recent great exhibition.
Twenty-one Stars; Three No-hfts.
Among these 81 stars, only three
have a chieved a no-hit game more
than cnce in their careers. They are
Mathewson, Young and Joss, each of
whom uncorked two spotless perform

Several times this year pitchers have
COZ faultless work for number OF
innings, so that it seemed more tnan
likely that a no-hit game would re-
suit. Exactly a month ago George
HOOPS Wiltse, of the New York
Giants held the ST. Louis Cardinals
l;itless for six innings. Then Roger
Bresnahan came TO bat and cracked
out a two-bagger that spoiled an oth-
erwise perfect performance. A day
later Nan Rucker, of Brooklyn, prob
ably the greatest southpaw in the
game today, opposed Cincinnati. For
eight innings he kept the hard-hitting
red-legs from counting a safe clout.
In the ninth, gigantic Larry Mclean
was the first at bat. He struck out
So did pitcher Frank Smith. Bobby
Bescher's turn came next and the Boil
ger fans were preparing to score
no-hit game for Rucker. Bescher was
all that stood between him and the COW
eted honor. What did Bescher do?
Tfe knocked a slow one over second
base that the sluggish Brooklyn In
firlders could not reach. and Fuckers
remarkable work was set at naught, so
far as getting a no-hit game was con-
cernsd.
All No-Hits Are Shutouts.,
1t so happens that all no-hit games
in the big leagues have been shutouts.
That may seem like a waste of words
the average fan always considers a
no hit game shutout as matter of
course Far be it from such. Several
instances in the minor leagues can be
cited where a team failed to get a
single hit, but yet won the game. Err
rors, bases on balls and the like did
the work, although the opposing fling
er was not hit safely during the en-
tire game. What the aforementioned
fan is really thinking of. although he
may not know it, is a no-man-to-first-
base game.
One That is More Rare.
While the no-hit game is surely a
rare enough bird, the o-man-to-first-
base game is almost unheard Of Fact
is, there have been only two such
performances in the history of modern
league baseball And the authors of
them also have another no-hit to their
credit-just to show it was no f1uke.
They are Cy Young. the grand old
man of basebal1'-long may he live
and Addie Joss-long live his memory.

Within a Year
(By Monte.)


New York, N. Y. Aug ia no
hit camel" The clamor of the crowd,
the hero worshippers of their idol, the
star pitcher Of the hum team" is
ever thus. Half a dozen, two, even one
hitless inning, and the fans are up on
their toes shouting for column of
ciphers in the III part of the inyad
ers' box score.
And do these same fans realize the
magnitude of the task they are de-
manding and what 1t means to the
pitcher? Seldom. 1t means fame and
glory to the pftcher-that his name
will go down in baseball history as
one of the greatest OF them all. 1t
means that he will be one among the
other 26 who have accomplished the
feat since the advent of the twentieth
century-an average of less than one
a year in each of the big leagues And
consider the great" pitchers who
have never turned the trick!
Joe Woods No Hit Game.
When Joe Wood twirled no-hit
game against the ST. Louis Browns in
the last series between the Boston Red
Sox and the celler champions of the
American league many passed over the
performance with the remark: "Oh.
there's nothing wonderful in doing
that to the Browns" These people are
mistaken There is something won
derful In doing that to the Browns, or
any other team for that matter. Every
year the champion clubs have met the
tail-enders. The best have opposed
the worst some 20 odd times each sea-
son. And yet not once year, on the
average, has the under-dog failed to
register hit.

that had existed since May 10 of last
year when CHIEF Bender of the Ath-
leties, pitched hitless ball against
Cleveland. Woods performance made
the count during the last IL seasons
IL for the American as against 10 for
the National.
Hahn the First.
Hahn, of Cincinnati, was the first
pitcher of the century to be credited
with a no-hit game. He did it against
the Phillies on July II, 1900. Next
year came Christy Mathewson. then in
his teens who retired the st. Louis
Cardinals without a bingle. No Ma
tional Lacquer achieved the feat in
1902, but In 1903 Chick Fraser, of
Philadelphia. made the Cubs victims

Mathewson repeated his 1901 perform

of Philadelphia, and Nal Eason, of
Brooklyn, enter the honor list In
1907 Fred Pfeffer, of Boston, and Mad
dox, of Pittsburg. were the heroes.
George Wiltse, of the New York
Giants, held the Phillies hitless for 10
innings on July 2, 1908, and Map Ruck-
er, of Brooklyn, was the performer in
the last no-hit game he pitched in the
National league when he downed the
then fairly strong Boston team on
September 5, 1908.

comeback In baseball history was

brought the Boston Red Sox into
the limelight. Connie Mack's Athletics

w ILL the New York boxing
w clubs make the same mistake
w that has been made in some
game now, that the boxing contests
have been legalized by the state legis-
lature? From information at hand 1t
is evident that some of the promoters
in the big city are falling into a hole
that may make trouble for them later
on, and it is hoped, for the good OF
the game, that they will see their mis-
take before it is too late
Chicago Killed 1t.
The game in Chicago would be going
today If 1t were not for the fact that
the promoters themselves always made
ii impossible for the authorities there
to countenance 1t. The same trouble
has been experienced in other cities
but not to such a great extent, and
now there is danger OF the New York
promoters making the same mistake.
The commission appointed by Gov. Dix
of New York, and which is made up
of very conservative men, has not had
an opportunity yet to operate, but the
chances are that when 1t does begin
there will be something doing, and
there will also be some very explicit
advice given to promoters in that city.
who are inclined to overstep their
bounds.
Has Big Advantage.
There is no doubt that New York
has the edge on all other cities in
handling high class matches, for they
have the population to draw from, and
class Of men who will pay good
prices to witness a good contest. The
conditions. however, are similar to
baseball; that is, when New York is
strong for baseball 1t is a pretty good
sign that the rest of the country fol-
lows, so it Is with boxing.
With the fistie game legalized in
New York state. 1t should prove a
great boom to the game all over the
country, and IL will not be surprising
to see other states fall in line and
legalize this sport, where the bouts
are limited to not more than ten
rounds. In the meantime let us hope
that the New York promoters win not
try to kill the goose that laid the
golden egg. the same as was done when
the Horton law was in vogue
Matt Wells II "Put Ont.
Matt Wells, the English lightweight
champion, who came over to this coun-
try under the management of George
Mcdonald, with the express object Of
getting on with Ad Wolgast, or
EdCA6y. MCr dTid4ds Is very muCA put
out because he is obliged to lay around
and wait the pleasure of the two
American stars.
From boxing standpoint there is
NO doubt that Wells Is the niau who
shovld be favored in battle with
Wclsast, for the reason that he is the
legitimate champion Of Great Britain.
and has a right to demand contest
for the worlds title. He should get
first call over Freddy Welsh. whom,
he defeated for the championship Of
Great Britain, but IN this case he has
been sidetracked. as Wolgast has prac-
tically arranged match with Welsh.
for Thanksgiving day, at Los Angeles.
Wells claims that he can make the
same weight that Mcfarland Is making
for Wolgast, for their match Septem-
Der Is in Milwaukee. and that IL
necessary he can do even a lower
weight.
Why Is Itf
Tt is a problem to understand why
the New York sports should install Ad
Wolgast a two to one favorite over
Packey Mcfarland, in their ten round
