ICHESNUTT MEASURED UP I
FULLY TO EXPECTATIONS |
Scott Chesnutt has had a trying time
luring the past three days. There Is prob
ibly no harder task for an umpire or
ilayer than to perform before home folks
or the first time. The sensations are
'arled and the man who works for the
irst time before his fellow townsmen Is
tept on a strain lest he should make
;ome eiTor that will bring down the wrath
if the fans on his head.
Chesnutt has umpired here before. But
his was In practice games and counted
ittle. His real exhibition came on Thurs
lay, Friday and Saturday, when he a«>
leared here for the first time as a regu
ar Southern league arbiter, and he
teamed through with colors flying. Ches
lutt worked both In the field and behind
he plate, and In both positions he gave
entire satisfaction. Of course ttiere were
several times when the fans did not agree
with him In decisions, but a man who
never makes a mistake has no place in
the- Southern or any other league, minor
or major, for that matter.
He gave the best exhibition that has
been seen In Birmingham this year, and
h'5 fully measured up to the standard that
has been created for him by scribes in
other cities. He put ginger Into the game
and prodded the players for faster work.
He gave his decisions in such a crisp man
ner that there were never any uncertainty
about them. i
Such glowing reports of his work had
come into the city during the past sev
eral weeks that fans were anxious to see
whether or not they were deserved. Ches
nutt did not disappoint them and gave
ample proof that he Is really the capable
umpire that he has been reported.
■MEMPHIS HORSE SETS NEW
I RECORD IN LOUISVILLE RACE
Louisville. May 23.—Clipping three
econds off the track record for the dls
ance, Luke McLuke, the licet 3-year
ld son of Ultimus and Midge, owned
y J. W. Schorr of Memphis, won the
Kentucky handicap at a mile and a
uarter by half a length at Douglas
ark this afternoon. Rodulfo was sec
nd and Solar Star, a held horse, third,
'lie winner’s time was 2:02 4-3; three
econds faster than the record set by
tudolfo, which won the event last
ear.
Ten speedy thoroughbreds of all ages
iced the starter and the race was
eenly contested throughout. Duke Mc
uke, in rare form, was, a slight favor
e in the betting, notwithstanding this
as only his third start, but almost all
le entries were liberally supported, the
Inner paying three to one.
Solar Star set the pace and led to the
alf mile post, with Luke McLuke close
p and Hodge third, Rudolfo trailing In
fth position. At tbe half Jockey A.
eylon. astride the son of _ Ultimus,
rged the colt forward and he had a
iree lengths lead when the three
uarters was reached. As the horses
irned Into the stretch KUdolfo came
p -with a ruph from eut of the field
id Neylon plied the lash to hist mount,
issiuc undar the wlrs with Rudolfo
lapped on the Schorr colt's saddle
girth.
The purse, with $10,000 added money,
amounted to approximately $14,000, of
which the winner received $11,600. Go
well, Donerail, Clubs, Bello C.p G. If.
Miller and Samuel R. Meyer also ran.
Hawaiian Heiress in Hurry
From the San Francisco Examiner.
Mrs. Marie K. King, a Hawaiian heiress,
now in Honolulu, Is probably the first
woman who ever received a divorce by
wireless. She got it the other day, In
order that she might marry at once an
other man.
Mrs. King was the wife of S. G. O.
King, secretary of the Junction Oil com
pany. She IS rich in her own name, and a
member of the old Plllol family, of Ha
waii. a
The Kings separated in 1909, and Mrs.
King sued for divorce, charging desertion.
The interlocutory decree was granted
April 1, 1919, in Oakland, and Mrs. King
returned to Honolulu. There she met a
wealthy man and decided to remarry, but
at the last minute she remembered that
the final recree of divorce from King had
never been granted. She sent frantic
wireless messages to her attorney here,
and as a result Judge William H. Dona
hue, of Oakland, signed the decree.
Should Be Straight
From the Boston Evening Transcript.
“Even the honey we get Is adulterated."
"Why mention that particularly?”
“Well, ywa ha Idly expect eng one In
the bee-line to be crooked, a^ you |now.”
| AUGUSTA CLUB HAS SENT FOUR
BIG STARS TO MAJOR LEAGUES
Fortunes of four major league teams are closely followed by "fans” In Augusta, Ga., and It is doubtful If am
minor league city In the country can boast of such sound reasons for deep Interest In the White Sox. Tigers and Red
Sox, of the American, and the Dodgers, of the National League. "Eddie” Cicotte, "Ty” Cob, Clyde Engle ami "Nap
Rocker, of the teams mentioned above, all played in Augusta on the team representing that city in the South Atlanlii
league In 1905. No other minor league outfit ever sent np In a single season such a rich crop of playing talent.
Cobb was Jnst showing evidence of a brilliant future when he was with the "Sally” league team here nine years
ago. Cicotte had been picked up in Detroit, where he had been a “sand Iotter” of promise and determination. Rucker
and Engle were also Just beginning to head toward the top ranks.
There is wide interest 1n many sections throughout Georgia when Cicotte is pitching for the While Sox or Ruckei
is in the box for the Dodgers, but at all times Tigers, .White Sox, Red Sox and Dodgers have stanch rooters ir
Augusta.
