this 1912 baseball season in the
South. The race in old Dixie major
this year has been extremely close.
Any time any one of five teams
made a rush it could have threat
ened first place. And yet, barring
Mobile, no team has made a real
rush this season. The Barons took
an early lead and have held it right
along by a small margin. They
have never had things all to them
selves. Any team in the league that
could have spurted could have pass
ed the Barons. But no teau
spurted.
This race has been one of the
odd affairs when the teams ran
punched all the way. with only a
little distance separating them but
with few changes in relative posi-
ton.
Even the justly lamented Crack
ers have been where they could get
not only out of last place, but out
of the second division if they could
only have won a half dozen games
in a row But they have plugged
right along. winning just enough to
keep within hailing distance but
not enough to pass any other
teams.
Yea. verify, it has been a blighted
season.

Jordan Doesn't Want the Chattanooga ManagemeH Says

{ CHATTANOOGA papers are quot
ing O. b. Andrews. president
Of the Chattanooga club. in sting
ing interviews. denouncing Bill
Smith for saying that he was 60
ing to buy Otto Jordan for use in
Atlanta next year Andrews claims
that he wouldn't sell Jordan under
any circumstances.
OF course this is a typical An
drews interview. AS a matter of
fact, Atlanta papers started the
idea that Jordan would come back,
and all Bill Smith ever said for
publication on the subject was that
if Jordan was for sale he would
buy him.
1t can probably be taken for
granted that Bill knows the base
ball rules and customs full as well
as Mr.. Andrews.
1t is also corking guess that
Otto Jordan will be back in Atlanta
next season. He wants to come
back so bad it hurts him, and what
Otto wants he usually gets-bar-
ring pennants.

FODDER FOR FANS

The Mansfield team of the Ohio State
league has on its lineup Pitcher Black,
Catcher Blue and Fielder Redman. And
yet it is not coored nine.
If there is post-series game between
the American league pennant winners and
picked team, which is likely, Clark
Griffith will lead the picked team.
The Louisville team is next to last, but
Manager Jack Hayden has been signed
tor 1913. They are going to give him
another chance.
Owing to the illness of Umpire Bier
halter, Bob Spade was summoned on
short notice to take up job as umpire
in the American association. Evidently
he did not last long at that managerial
job he had.
The indianapolis team has an amateur
owner and a bush league manager. But
it might get going, even with that com
bination Billy Smith was known as the
Bush League Manager when he took
over the Atlanta team. After he won two
pennants they forgot that title.
Somebody sent out from Atlanta the in

for Atlanta in 1908 and 1910. OF course
he didn't win pennants either of those

he doomed to go through his base
ball career without recognition as
a star. and this despite the fact
that he is one of the steadiest ball
players in the American league,
Rath is referred to by his mates
as the brains Of the White SoN in
field. This title was given him by
Matty Mcintyre in a spirit of kid

In the International league last
season Rath hit well over 800. In

TT is only comparatively recently
that golf has been doomed. as it
were. yet it is now played in
every country of the civilized world.

that have achieved success at this

sport.
The golfer only wants the slight
est possible excuse to neglect bust
ness and home ties to fly off to his
favorite course and forget every
thing except how he is to get his
handicap reduced or improve his
previous low score of the links. but
the unfortunate individual who is
not a golfer and has not played
the game-perhaps only seen it

it whatever; thinks it is an old
