RULES FAIL TO PROVE
CLAIM OF ATLANTA FIVE

The claims of the Atlanta players that
they we're robbed of last nights game
with the Birmingham Athletic club
through the partality of the referee,
Coach Courleux of the Birmingham high
school is absurd. The visitors claim that
the majority of the fouls called on them
We're not justifiable. and also that Cour-
leux stop calling fouls on the local team
when he found that Forbes could shoot
the goal every time.
These are entirely groundless. The
fouls that were called ON them We're near
ly every time plainly evident that the
spectators even noticed them.
The Atlanta players let their desire for
victory get the best of them and forgot
the friendly rivalry that was supposed
to exist.
Nany fouls were called on the Atlanta
team, more than ON the locals, yet the
reason for this is easily forthcoming.
the club played the cleaner game.
Five of the fouls called on Atlanta

the referee throws the ball up between
two players neither player can under any
circumstances catch the ball until 1t has
been played by some other player Yet
the Atlanta players claim that when they
caught the ball in the toss-up 1t was not
foul.
The Atlanta players also became dis
grunted over the enthusiastic cheering Of
supporters of the local team because
Coach Courleux refused to order it
stopped. CourleuN contended that there
was no rule governing this, In this con-
tention he was correct for the only rule

NARROWLY ESCAPE DEFEAT AT HANDS OF A
Federal League Will Remain
Intact AS Recently Organised

Chicago. January 1.-THE Federal
league of baseball clubs will remain
intact as recently organized, 1t was
said tonight as result Of a long Sc
cret meeting of club owners. During
the day many rumors were afloat that
the new league was about to break
up, but harmony eventually prevailed.
The rumor that caused most discus
sion was that Charles Weeghmam of
Chicago had announced his intention TO
withdraw from the Federal league and
buy the st. Louis club of the Amer
lean league.
This threat was due to reports that
other club owners in the Federal league
had not made Sufficiently energetic
efforts to place their teams on a par
with major league baseball teams.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-01-18

From the very first it was case of
Greek meet Greek with both sides ap-
parently evenly matched. During the
early stages of the game it was clearly
evident that the fight would be strenuous
until the very end and that neither team
would have cinch in coping honors
The visitors opened with a rush that
was almost Irresistible and for a time
they had Coach Nespor's stalwarts in the
air. but later, however. they quickly
came to earth and rapidly closed up the
gap that the Atlanta team had made.
During the greater part of the initial
part of the game the score changed con-
siderably, first one side working to the
front and then the other. The Atlanta
boys finally succeeded in emerging from
the first half, leading by lone tally,
the score being 16 to 10 in their favor.
With the opening of the second half the
struggle for supremacy commenced with
added zest, the club team battling des-
perately to overcome the one point lead,
and that of Atlanta strenuously resisting
the advances of their opponents. In the
early part of the fracas the visitors drew
first blood when Forbes rung foul goal
b. A. c. Forges to Front
Intrepid work on the part of Tommy
MCGOWAN, which resulted in a field goal,
enabled the club team to pull ahead for
the first time during the game. The in
vaders. however, quickly tied things up
and for time both teams battled along
with neither possessing the punch neces-
sary to shove over a counter. The At
lanta then forged, ahead, but was prompt
ly overtaken by the locals.
Entering the last five minutes of play
with the score tie both teams brought
all of their reserve strength into play.
The Atlanta players failed hewever, to
keep pace with the desperate playing OF
the club aggregation and by dent of hard
work Birmingham garnered three field
goals and a foul goal which proved to
be the winning points.
With all due credit to Joe Bean and his
scrappy aggregation it must be said tnat
the club boys failed to display the brand
of ball which they are capable of deliv-
ering. On the defense they played up
to the usual standard, but on the offense
they fell down miserably. Fumbles, poor
passing and faulty judgment were all
clearly apparent in their playing.
Battle Marred by Wrangling
The latter part of the battle was marred
somewhat by the constant wrangling of
the Atlanta players over fouls that were
called on them. Each time when Coach

called foul storm of protest would be
showered upon him by the Atlanta play
ers, who claimed that he was being par
tial to the locals. Although Courleux
called more fouls ON the visitors than on
the locals he did not show any partiality
whatsoever. In fact he was rather lenient
with them for had he called every foul
committed the total would have been
swelled to enormous proportions.
MCGOWAN and Seals OF Birmingham,
and Forbes of Atlanta, We're the stellar
performers of the game. Throughout the
entire combat this trio was conspicuous.
Although all are veterans, each played
as If he was in the heyday of his career.
