Coaching changes urged as Crackers cling to last place
A sports column blames manager Hemphill for the Crackers poor showing while praising rival teams and calling for leadership change. It notes high batting and fielding, low runs, and dwindling attendance at Ponce de Leon Park as the season progresses. The piece urges pep and a team-wide boost to lift Atlanta from the cellar. It also mentions the upcoming Georgia Railway and Power Company benefit game at the park and references Connie Mack’s breaking-up signals.

Questions Answered By The Sporting Editor
The sporting editor answers queries on baseball scoring rules and attendance figures. A fielder's choice does not credit a hit. Thompson, formerly at Georgia, is with the New York Americans.
