(By Ira Hall.)

The Industrial Leaguers did the right thing last evening in inaugural ing thelr fifth successive season, by enjoying an automobile trip about the city. Twenty-Five cars, loaned by various citizens of the city, carried the boys and the league directors, to the number of 175. The speedometers registered a trip of IS 1-2 miles, taking two hours to burn up that distance.
 The big parade, headed by Mayor Buckingham's car, with the Mayor himself at the wheel, followed by the press car and the Blue Ribbon truck carrying the Graphophone Drum Corps. left the City Hall at o'clock. The first round of the trip brought the boys through the center of the city to the North End. Along the line many a family whose stalwart son was a member of one of the clubs, burned red fire in honor of the trip. From the North End the procession wended it's noisy march to East Bridgeport Shooting across town the caravan of autos footed itself into the West End and the Brooklawn district. where red fire was burned in a mum Der of places. The final stretch brought the ball players into the South End.
 The line of march in this section of the city was somewhat varied. The boys went among the South Finders by way of Park avenue, thence to

New Haven, May 13-Yale is picked to win this afternoons track meet with Harvard at Yale Field.

SENATOR'S
 GET JUMP ON
 M'CANN'S MEN Red Waller Goes We'll After
 Fatal First Inning
(By Wagner.)


 Getting the jump on the other fel- -ow is a grea. thing in baseball. That's just what Tom Ccnnery's 8 Hartford league leaders did to Bridgeport yesterday. They clouted Ped Waller for three runs in the opening session and thereby put the Mechanics in a. hole. McCann' s brigands fought hard but were never able to overcome that lead because Lefty Iaverenz was twirling a pretty smooth brand of ball.
 After his first inning Waller went along pretty we'll He was tapped for Is hits and had men on bases in almost every stanza but he pre- vented the Senators from connecting with tne pinch swrt until the 10th. Bridgeport is in bad shape without Jimmy Hall. Not only does the ab- a batting and fielding standpoint but the JOSS of Chief Snyder from the box is a hard blow to the team. He was the leading twirler, with four victories and no defeats.
 That Hartford crowd looks strong. Connery has collected a good bunch of stickers and he inspired them with his own aggressive spirit. High in left field looks like g. coming star and Hickey in right appears to be some sluggerino. He made five hits in five times up.
 Red Waller did what he could to help along his cause by cracking out a triple and single and driving in two of the runs. With the score 3 to in the 10th and two out and

nobody on the paths, Hartford won out. Moves bolted single and Hickey sent him to third with another clout. Then Hickey ambled down to second. Billy Vann, who had previously fail ed to connect, shot one to left and Moves scored the winning run. Hickey tried to tally but was nailed at the plate on Skipper Eley's good throw.
 In the last half of the inning Hi Ladd led off with merry crack for @ base. Benny Kauff famed and Bob Stowe forced Ladd at second. Bob then stole the midway station. Chief Snyder knocked a few fouls and was then called out on 8. third strike that was over his head. The game was over. The score:

San Francisco, July 15.-Ethel Bar
rymore has cancelled her coast en-
gagements and is going back to New

Nothing at all to say" is the only
explanation she vouchsafes, but COS
sip explains that it is either to begin
her battle for divorce from Russell

last coast engagement July 1 5 and
Immediately return to New York, She
had been booked to appear in Port

Friends of Miss Barrymore insist
that her real trouble is only slight
misunderstanding with her husband,

THE MACON TELEGRAPH SHOULD
LEAD AGGRESSIVELY FOR
SOUTH GEORGIA.

Elsewhere we reproduce an editorial
appearing in the Macon Telegraph,
on the gubernatorial situation, with
especial reference to South Georgia
and the position of the Telegraph
The impression that the Telegraph
was lining up behind the Constitution
and the Augusta Chronicle was de-
rived from the general tenor of its
Atlanta dispatches, and a prevalent
impression existing in political cir
cles in Atlanta during the fore part Of
the week, that these three papers in
tended to make a fight for Brown fo3
another term.
If an injustice was done the Tele-
graph no one regrets it more than The
Times Recorder, which appreciates the
vital need for the leadership of such a
paper in South Georgia if this section
| is ever to come into its own politically
and cease acting the part Of a vermi-
form appendix to North Georgia con-
troll in state affairs.
The Telegraph is in error, though. in
suposing that the Times-Recorder's re-
marks were governed by natural To-
cal sentiment here favorable to Com
missioner Hudson,
Ut is not a matter of Hudson, or
! pon, prCv-r ~, prop+lnv ca ,,,,rh q 9
it is a matter Of South Georgia taking
a decided stand against further domi-
nation Of the state by the North Geor-
gia crowd, to the utter exclusion 81
South Georgia when the governorshiT
and the senatorships are under con
sideration.
The Times-Recorder did not have
Hudson in mind any more than other
gentlemen of South Georgia whose
names have been used in connection
with the goyernorship when it stated
, that the Telegraph would have no reas-
on to expect South Georgia to rally &C
its aid if it failed to support South
Georgia candidates. 1t was simply AZ
expression of this papers belief thai
the time has come for South Georgia
papers to stand together and not divide
the people of this section by allowing
North Georgia politicians to utilize
them to boost North Georgia candi
dates or divide their support of South
Georgia candidates to such an extent
E as to prevent them from achieving sue
cess.
South Georgia is too great part 5f
Georgia, too important part, and
should be too proud a part, to forever
1play into the hands of the North Geor-
gia politicians.
This sentiment is rapidly spreading.
The Macon Telegraph could be
strong factor-we might say the
strongest-in uniting the people of
South Georgia on this line, if it would
