The Yanks are scheduled to play at

their only Atlanta engagement this

II The afternoon is reasonably clear.

big crowd out to enjoy the privilege

HighIanders at the very moderate
price of two bits per throw, and SIT

A MoNG the celebrities win be the

who won four pennants and two
worlds championships with the
Cubs, and who now is confronted
with the stupendous problem or max

our old friend ed Sweeney, and plen-

Barring much rain, a good crowd
should witness the performance.
| ID EvERTING to the Crackers win
IN ming streak, we foot 1t up that they
have COPIED six out of seven practice
games and tied one OF these games.
two were not exactly orthodox bat
ties, being waged with very amateur
teams.
But of the Ave remaining contests.
one was tie with big league team
- Cleveland-one series of two games
was divided with Louisville, Of the
American Association; and the other
two games, with Newark, were mar
row victories. Both Louisville and
Newark are Glass IA teams, rank
ing ahead of the Southern.

ter In the second game against the
| Indians than at any other start this
year. Schwind's errors. aided by a
Wild peg by Joe Dunn caused a ma :
iority of the scoring against him,
although two resounding blows in the
I ninth made three runs out of base
on balls and a scratch hit that d
hard hearted scorer might have list
ed as a sixth error against the unfor-
sunate Schwind.
Tor sehwind was unfortunate
4 and hard working. The fast lit
I tie chap got thirteen chances, not
/ counting a brace Of scratch hits that
he reached. You might call it fifteen
| In all: and he was going after every
( thing in sight. His misdeeds were
ali OF commission; he loafed on
nothing. And they were all on tough
chances and hurried pegs. II would
be sorry work to penaiize a young
infleidersfor suffering over the tough
ones and for errors resulting from
fast play when it had to be fast OF
net at all.
co we are going to permit Mr.. B
- Smith TO do any fussing at Mr.
Schwind that is to be done, while we
take occasion TO mention the SHARP
fielding and savage walloping Of Mr.
| Lynch. The red top got three clean
/ hits, one a triple, and base on balls
in Ave attempts. His work in the
! field Is not clean-cut as yet, but he is
fast and aggresslve-and he can
throw.
