scored one in the second and one
in the third. Then they paused.
Schwartz's men tailed one in

two in the sixth, picking up a four
run lead. Then they hesitated.
Whereupon the Crackers turned
loose all they had on Case and

diminutive Bair. And when the
merry go-round stuff had ended

Young laced out triple. Lindsay
drew four sad ones and then a

Catcher Reynolds answered with
wild heave to second and Young
counted. That was enough to win,

by way of cinching it Lindsay went
on to third when HARRISON heaved
poorly in that direction and scored
when Elliott beat out an infield
hit.
1t was a day of tremendous slug
ging. Daley, Elliott, Agler and

advantage.

TINE Southern League season
is narrowing down When
todays game is out of the
way but four more playing days
remain for Atlanta. Nashville will
furnish the opposition today and
tomorrow. Next Monday the
Chattanooga club opens here for
a three days stay. With Wednes-
days game out of the way they'll
put up the shutters at Poncey
park, nail up the gates and heave
sigh of relief-not unmingled
with sadness.
1t has been an awful season.
There are those who. with a little
encouragement, will argue with you
as to whether this year or last
year was worse Personally we
vote right now that this one was
the sadder Of the two-and the
reason is that it gave so much
greater announcement at the start.
n NE thing is encouraging about
- these closing DAYS, and that is
that. thanks to the fact that no
Atlanta players bought under OPP
tional agreement were recalled and
that some of the new men look
promising, prospects for next year
aren't half bad. Bill Smith viii
have some real ball players left
over from this years club to be-
gin on.
Atlanta fans ask no better first
baseman than Joe Agler, no better
second baseman and field captain
than Whitley Alperman, and no
more promising recruit shortstop
than HARRISON. Humpty Noel
.veen has shown most marked i'm
provement of late and is going
strong. With the right sort of
start next spring he is likely to de-
velop into the fast, hard hitting
third baseman of his earlier DAYS

"Crucial" Game Lost Locals Must Finish Last
Crackers VIII Tackle Volunteers Again Today

in the Southern. Bailey is a good
enough outfielder for any mans
league. Reynolds, with the Smith
brand of coaching, will become a
catcher of real repute. Just what
Smith will make out of the pres

foolhardy to guess But certainly

can bat and his first out as pitch

other man who may be a wonder
under Smith handling. And there's
no telling what Bill will be able
to do with the rest-but it might
he something big.
At a rough estimate not less
than seven of this years tail-end

for pennant winner next year.
OF course that means that Smith
will have to recruit eight more
good men from somewhere. But
