BALL HARD, BUT

MONTGOMERY, ALA. May 20
That it doesn't pay pitcher to get hits

erys erratic twirer, managed to get
hits both times up. Once he got ali the
way around Another time he got to
the third station Both times he had TO
run his blooming legs off The result
was that he was chased to a point of
exhaustion and he weakened As soon
as he did the Cracker club got to him

dilemma and sent in the reliable joey

Crackers safe and as the local players
found Paige easy they rang UP vic
tory, 2 to 4.
The Billikens piled UP enough runs in
the first and second innings to win the
game. After that thew Just breezed
along and watched the heroic but en-
tirely futile efforts of the Crackers to
deliver the goods.
The hitting Of the Billikens was
amazing Eleven hits were made out OF
80 times at bat, and among them were

Union Of Ball Players VIII Result From Cobb Row
Baseball Trust Takes Hot Fight on Its Hands

Baseball has become great in
America because it is decent
sport. Do you suppose it Will stay
great IL the patrons are to expect
now and then that a player will
climb over into the stands and
whale a spectator? Or that spec
tators will be allowed to use foul
language? If such things are to be,
ladies will desert the game. And
when their support is withdrawn
baseball begins its decline.
The solution of the trouble is for
the owners of baseball teams to af-
ford the players protection from
abusive spectators. This can be
easily done. Such protection will
go double-it will protect fans and
players alike from foul and pro-
fame language, 1t will remove from
the players any excuse for attacks
on patrons.
The first time baseball sinks to
the plane of prize fighting, wres
Ting and the like, its decline begins
1t behooves not only baseball mag
mates, who have their money tied
up, but players as well, who have
their livelihood involved, to see that
the game Is kept decent. Once 1t
becomes a pastime too coarse to be
worthy the patronage of ladies its
decline begins.
COLLEGE boys used to have
y pleasant little ways with each
other a few years ago. A bunch
from one college would go to an
other college to witness game.
They went always prepared for
fight and usually they got 1t. At
the very best, the supporters of the
opposing teams would hurl billings
gate and assorted vituperation at
each other Usually they took the
thing in earnest. though, and hurled
bricks, rocks, bottles and such.
Free fights were regular occur
renee This isn't an eXaggeration
It hardly puts the situation strong
enough.
Gradually there has been a change
in sentiment and a desire has
sprung up to treat visitors from
other colleges as guests. This
change was well shown in the re
cent Tech Georgia series. Through
the great work of the athletic au-
thorities and the alumni Of both
colleges. with occasionally some
help from the newspapers, the best
kind Of feeling has been developed
This was particularly apparent
when the big delegation of Tech
men went to Athens Saturday
They were most royalty entertained
and most courteously treated.
When. after the third straight
defeat of the Jackets, the Tech
band and the Georgia band
marched shoulder to shoulder

- III IL w III I'LL p
TIME baseball trust will soon
find itself opposed by play
ers union. No man can say
what the ultimate and complete
outcome of the Cobb rucus will be.
But the thing that Is as certain as
election day Is that a union of the
players must come. The players
have needed q union for long
time, OF late they have had to de-
pend on the fairness of few men,
mostly rich, for everything-their
wage scale" the conditions of
their contract, playing conditions,
playing rules everything. And vow
all know what chance the average
citizen has at the hands of any
small group Of men. mostly rich.
There is a baseball trust 1t has
been fairly run, in the main, and
the players have received a rea-
sonably fair deal AS the years roll
on. though, the players-if unpro-
tected-would slowly but surely get
little the worst of it each year
until the baseball trust had them
all where it wanted them There is
one way for the players to avoid
this, and this is by the organization
of a strong union. 1t can easily be
done, and it will be done.
Once unionized, the ball players
could get anything they wanted
:
strike of all players in organized
ball would bring the magnates to
time on the run
A baseball union will grow out Of
the Cobb incident, sure as fate.
OF course, the popular way of
~ treating this Cobb matter is to
laud the Georgia lad for his act of
jumping on a Spectator and to
make a great hero out of him.
Sober considera ton of the mat
ter demonstrates that Cobb had re-
dress under the laws of baseball
and those of the state of New York
for the insults of the man he at
tackled. And. heaven knows, as civ
ilization advances we are getting
further and further away from the
good old fist and gun method of
settling disagreements.
On the other hand the provoca-
ton was great and Cobb has never
been one to hold himself in hand
when the circumstances provoked
him to anger.
What does loom big, though. is
that the baseball players are enti-
tied to better protection from the
gibes and abuses of fans than they
get. All states are doubtless pro-
vided with laws to punish those
who use foul and abusive language.
The arrest and prosecution of a few
fans who overstep the bounds
would do worlds of good.

MEN OBLIGED
 TO THAW OUT PIPE.
Caused Trouble in Frozen Condition to
 Gable 1t Contained.

Freezing weather like that of the past few weeks makes trouble for the telephone people in a source that few would suspect. but which was indi- cated this week when a force of the telephone employees was at work in the conduit in Broadway near the Otis H. brary. With big furnace for making steam they were thaWing out the pie which runs from the main conduit to the telegraph pole in the sidewalk in front of the Y. NJ. c. A. building.
 Rain water enters the open top tf the pipe, runs down and settles in ths bend underground and freezes up when the frost strikes down as far as that The freezing congresses the cable, causing trouble on the lines there. the remedy being to send a Jet of steam from the furnace through the pipe and thaw out ice that has been formed at the same time drawing out the water.
 In continued cold weather like the present this freezing has been a ire duent source of trouble on the lines locally and all over the state.
