TTHAT would you say if you
w heard that Norman Elber-
field, the Stormy Petrol OF
Southern League baseball, probably
would be shortstopping for the Dodg
ers when the flag drops for the start
of the National League. season?
That's what we hear, anyway.
The report rolls over from the
Brooklyn training camp at Augusta
that Manager Robinson is losing nc
sleep over Kirkpatrick's jump back to
the Federal League.
1.-THE best shortstop the Yankees
ever had in their best days is coach
ing our boys here now" Robinson is
reported to have said, "and I'll back
him to- day against most of the high
priced performers in that position in
either league"
OF course, Robinson was talking
~ about the Tabasco Kid. The first
hunch was that the Kid was going
to coach the green 'uns in the gentle
art of juggling the leather, hitting
the dirt, and allied accomplishments
Now it seems likely that the scrappy
veteran will be seen in the spangles
once more, and in the center ring-oI

FEDS DISPUTE
OVER DIVISION
Of BALL TALENT
Tinker and Knabe Object to Gill
more's Plan to Award Play
ers by Lot.
By w. j. McBeth.

~HICAGO, Feb. 27.-James A.
Y Gilmore, the energetic presi-
dent of the Federal League,
must hurdle a real obstacle at the
meeting here tomorrow He has
called meeting of his followers, at
which he proposes to arrange among
them me amicable settlement rela-
tive to division of talent that Wal
best balance his field of eight clubs.
President Gilmore has said repeat
edly, and still sticks to it. that the dia-
mond athletes will be pooled in such
a manner as to divide playing strength
as evenly as possible. Otto Knabe
and Joe Tinker have both declared
they will not cOuntenance such a
move. They say they have hustled
all winter for the best available tai
ent, and that less energetic CLUBS
should not profit at their expense.
Ned Hanlon, the moving spirit OF
the Federal League, would not eN-
press final views upon the matter, but
intimated that he would oppose pool
ing on any whole sale form
I'VE are in better shape. so far as
players are concerned, than some OF
our rivals" said Mr.. Hanlon. But
we are not going to let sentimen'
stand in the way of giving Baltimore
the very best we possibly can. Per-
haps we can spare few of our play
ers to bolster up the less fortunate
clubs, and will be only too willing TO
do go But such must be content with
our surplus They need expect none
of our best men,.

as near that coveted spot as the Dodg-
ers can shove themselves.
g OUTHERN LEAGUE fans are
- unlikely to forget the fussy little
chap that came so near to knocking
the Crackers off the pennant tree last
year with a big Pole.
Elberfeld came near to setting a
record for getting fired from games.
1t was suggested toward the latter
part of the season that, instead of
mentioning the fact that Elberfed
was chased for disputing decisions, it
should be noted particularly that Ell
berfeld was NOT canned-on the in
frequent occasions when he stuck out
the nine innings.
RUT he isn't a bad little Pepper
ID Kid at that, and he certainly
makes the game lively. Also, he is
one keen little infielder, and we have
an idea that Wilbert Robinson could
go farther and fare a good deal worse
in picking a shortstop than by install
ing Mr.. Elberfeld in that job.

latter defeated Georgia in Athens
and Georgia did defeat Atlanta on
the latter's own court, which was
more than the DISCOVERIES could do;
from which facts we argue that the
record of the Red and Black team
is shade better than that of CO.
lumbus, or any other Southern
team.
But when we come to study the
mere wins and losses of the teams
we find it impossible to declare a
championship for any team.
1t may be argued that inasmuch
as Atlanta, Birmingham and Co
lumbus each lost three games dur
ing the season, whereas Georgia only
lost two, therefore the latter is en-
titled to the laurel; but, as before
: pointed out, Georgia only played one
game with Atlanta and none at all
with Birmingham; and it is rather
probable that she would have lost
one game, at any rate, out of the
three had she played these extra
three games, and then her record of
losses would have been the same as
that of the other three teams.
Entirely apart from all champions

erers to say in no mincing way that
they are entitled to very great credit
indeed for the way they stuck in the
game and won out over Georgia in
the very last game of their season
on strange court
Fuller reports from Columbus
show plainly that the team fell from
grace almost entirely because of
numerous severe injuries suffered in
the last couple of weeks by the play
ers, among whom there was hardly
one sound man in the lot. Now, of
course, no man and no team can per-
form at best form when all are
crippled up, and the real wonder is
that they got through as well as they
did.

fully for the future. My information
is that the team has been none too
well prepared for a run of hard luck
of this character. Besides, it is not
unlikely that some of their older
players will before lcRg drop out of
the game, and other and younger
blood will be needed to fill in. Co.
lumbus would do well to start
searching for young players to fill
the positions that will no doubt be
left open by older heads.
At the same time it is worth while
pointing out that after all there need
be no great surprise felt on the. part
of the sporting public if the Column
bus team had lost some games this
season without having the alibi of
injuries to account for the defeats.
| have spoken before of the great
improvement being shown by va
rious teams of the South, particu-
larly the college teams, and it stands
10 reason that Columbus can no
more stand pre-eminent in basketball
forever than can the Athletics, Har-
ward. Cornell or any other teams in
their specialties.

And now that they did make an

about this old Southern champion
ship business? It's pretty badly
balled up skein of yarn.
Having broken even with all three
of the possible contenders- Atlanta,
Birmingham, and Georgia-and not
lost the complete series to anybody,
it would seem that Columbus is as
much entitled to tie claim for first
honqrs as anybody else. And, tech
nically speaking, that is about the
size and shape of the whole propo-
sition.
Still, it must be borne in mind
that Georgia did defeat Atlanta
and on the latter's court-and did
not suffer a defeat in return, as is
the historical record between CO.
lumbus and Atlanta. But that may
only have been because no return

Thrilling Rescue of
Captain and His Crew
By Associated Press

Washington, ID. c., Sept 30.-De-
tails of the thrilling rescue by the men
of the Brazos Texas, life saving sta
ton of the captain and crew of the
schooner Emily p. Wright, wrecked
August 23 off the Mexican coast, were
received to-day by the Department of
Commerce. August 81 one of the
schooner's crew, blistered, the skin off
his feet and in an exhausted condition.
arrived at the station and told of the
disaster to the schooner about 100
miles south of the Rio Grande. He
said he and his companions had
reached the shore in a small boat and
had started walking for assistance.
The station keeper, Wallace l.. Reed,
and his men started for the Mexican
coast in q small surf boat. Working
south they picked up all of the lschoon-
ers crew except the captain. They
were i'll from having gone five days
without food and some were without
clothes They told Reed it probably
would be impossible to find the cap
tain. as he was old and had given up
forty miles north of the wreck After
. few hours rest the life savers again
manned the surf boat and went in
search of the captain. Pulling and
sailing against hard winds, they landed
on the Mexican coast and after tramp
ing more than three hours found the
captain, terribly exhausted. He was
given nourishment and carried back to
the surf boat, more than twenty miles,
and taken to the station at Brazos.

Terrific Fighting
Continues Along Left
of Allies in France

London, Sept. 80, 1.5S p. m.-For
the first time in this war of nine ma
tions there is to-day some concord
ance in the drift of the reports from
tho headquarters of the three armies
holding the center of the stage in
where the most important operations
are in progress. 1t is, however, to he
noted that corroboration by one side
of the claims of the other is largely
negative. .-'
The French advances from Verdun
and Toul have been renewed" is the
German official report of yesterdays
fighting on the eastern end of the
line. and the communication of Cen
eral Joffre, commander-in-chief of
the French forces, agrees with ii in
the statement that his troops have
made slight progress" in that field.
At the other end of $50 mile line
the allies 'are holding their own" is
the report from British headquarters,
and the Berlin announcement seems
indirectly to admit this claim by an
nouncing that the battles on this end
have been indecisive.
In the center the French comnian-
der-in-chief claims slight progress.
According to another version of the
report from the German headquarters
the French attacks from Verdun and
Toul have been repulsed.
Confirmation of a news agency story
that the German right wing had been
broken and was in fight is still lack
ing. Commentators show much skep-
ticism of this report, although they
consider the breaking of the German
right wing would be only natural re-
suit of the great turning movement,
the present status of which Is pic
tured by the French official announce
ment of yesterday. This shows that
the allies have pushed back the in
vaders in this region until the Ger
man right wing is virtually at right
angles with the rest of the line.
The fact that the German headquar-
ters admit that their great efforts to
throw back the pressure of the al
lies have proved indecisive is regarded
in England as significant.
