Cannot Mobile Do It?

Throw Chattanooga out of the league and Mobile would probably cop the 1912 Southern league flag. For the Gulls have lost only to Chattanooga since July 6. At that they have fared exceedingly well, so well, in fact. that by winning IT of the last ao games. they have picked up six and one-half games on Birmingham and are now only six games behind Bir- mlngham. Another three weeks of play
 like that and chances are Mobile will take the lead. But it's an awful strain. and it's asking too much to expect Mickey Finns crowd to continue that heartbreaking pace. .. a

Atlanta's Bright Hope

Local fans will have their last chance to lamp the probable winners of the 1912 Southern league pennant race in action when the Birmingham Barons come here Thursday for series of five games. This will be Blrmingham's last appearance this season on Georgia soil. and the next to last time that they meet the Crackers.
 Two double headers will be played with the men of Molesworth. one on Thursday in all probab ability,. and another on. Fri day. This will make four double bills for the Crackers in one week, or 10 games in six days.
 Alperman's lads will make a strong bid for the odd against the Rickwooders. To date this season there has been noth- ing to it but the Barons whenever they have met the Crackers, but there is a large likelihood that the figures will tell different tale on the coming oocasion.- Atlanta Journal.
