After n winter of hibernation, things are beginning to hap- The spring meeting of the Southern League is the big event of this week. At this meeting a schedule will lie adopted and plans made for the coming season. This week will also see the unlmttiing of spring practice for practically nil the college and prep school teams in the South. Tech and Georgia have bee,, „( jt f or weeks. Auburn starts today. Spring work is beginning at Vanderbilt. Tennessee is getting busy. And taken altogether the real awakening has come in college baseball. Ten days more remain in this month and when they are gone the winter of sports is officially over. For when the first full week of March begins the tirst baseball team will report in At lanta for work. In addition to the baseball meeting on February there will lie the automobile hill climb, which from the spectator’s viewpoint, will be the more spectacular stunt. The prospects now are for a decidedly lively tilt between the many ears which will be entered and it aeems certain that the coming hill climb will be one of the most entertaining events of the sporting season. The writer took a spin over the proposed, course. And if ever a hill was well suited for n climb the llapeville Hill is it. At the foot of the hill is a nice little down-slant which af fords the contesting ears a good start. At the foot of the slant is a curve and then the road opens away right up hill for a couple of miles. It is enough of a hill to be a test of the hill- climbing capacity of any car and-yet uot steep enough to cut down a ear’s goxig anility to a crawl. The road is broad and good and there will be no danger from interference from pass ing horses. In addition to the baseball meeting and the bill climb them may be other events on Washington's birthday. Quite probably there will be the usual holiday shoot at the Atlanta Gun Club and possibly a golf tournament over the Fast Lake course of the Atlnntn Athletic Club. played: Hoph 4.
