Tommy pitched a corking good game

Acting Manager Alperman is confident
that he will repeat today.

In about 80 per cent Of the games
this season If the Crackers got off
TO bad start they never saw day
light again. If they ever got into
extra innings they always lost.
They did not have as much come
back to them as Jim Jeffries little
toe.
In yesterdays game-it may have
been due to the change in manage
ment or it may have been due TO
the weather-the Crackers made a
wretched get away-and then won
the game. The start was as de-
pressing as a dirge The Billikens

looked like a repetition of the old,
old story.
Whether Whitley" got the team
together or whether they just came
to life themselves history does not
necord, but it does mention that 1t
was Manager Charles A. Alperman
who drove out the home run, with
two on bases. that turned the tide.
IF the Crackers have developed a
little recuperative power. a lit
tie Of the old come back stuff and
a wallop they viii yet run one
two-three in the Southern league
race. It's a good race yet. Only
$50 points separate the leaders from
the tail enders-and the Crackers
aren't the tail enders today. OF
course the Atlanta team is 16 full
games out of the league leadership.
But 1t Is only six games out of the
first division and only one and one
half behind the Volunteers, who are
Immediately above them.
If Alperman can keep the Crackers
running as they ran Yesterday. he
wins steady Job as manager and
Atlanta has a ball team after all.

formation about the life and
battles of Pat Donahue. the slim
Irishman who is playing such cork

Crackers leads 10 the belief that
there may be some interest in his
history. Pat was born in Spring

Utica team. His big league expert

Mr. Jones says that there is too much
worry to being president of the organ

because he has his other official duties

Manager Forsyth Theater.)


TN picking my all-star team,
Cobb and Jackson are selected
because they are without ri
walls, and Jones is placed in the
other garden position, despite the
fact there is another outfielder as
great as he, for the simple reason
that my left fielder would be
world of value in leading off the
batting order. If 1t wasn't for
Fielder's great leading off ability,
l would have given Iris Speaker
the job.
The infeld, think, is superior to
any that could be collected. even
though there may be other players
who have shown more in the past
am sure that Collins will never
go back, while the other three men,
particularly Barry, have displayed
wonderful improvement in every
series that has been played this
season.
Ask any major league ball player
who he thinks is the greatest in
fielder now playing, and he will
tell you Jack Barry He is not a
f1ashy performer, but he covers a
heap of ground, both to his left and
to his right. And there never was
better pinch hitter, either.
At first, Daubert is conner.
Right now he may not be as spec
tacular as Hal Chase, but he is
more consistent, and in a year or

base runners dread seeing either

The two best pitchers that ever
