Byrd Defeats Tilson and Captures Trawick Trophy F. G. Byrd Is the winner of the Trawick cup of 190(1, and has agsln proved his claim to the title of champion golfer of Atlanta. Mr. Byrd won his final match Thursday, defeating W. J. Tilson by a score of 8 up and 6 to play. The affair was all but n slaughter. Mr. Byrd waa playing the phenomenal golf which haa characterised his game through the entire match, and had easy sailing nil the day. Ills long game was reinorknhlo and his short game steady and effective. In his match against Mr. Tilson he was In the lead from the very start. He took the first and second holes nnd only n phe nomenal put- by Mr. Tilson kept him from winning the first five straight, ns he did from Mr. Hill on the previous day. Ills work when his ball got In trouble was ea- peclally noteworthy, and his recovery on the ninth hole, out of the mud, was the best that has Iteen seen during the tourna ment. Mr. Byrd's score for the first nine holes was 43, which Is phenomenal, considering the bog-llke condition on the greens and the cyclonic efforts of the wind, which was tearing across the course at a 50-mlle clip. The match ended at the twelfth hole, when Mr. Byrd waa eight up. W. V. Hill, mho waa defeated by Mr. Byrd Thursday by a sedre of 4 up and 3 to play, perpetrated the prlxe imn mot of the tournament after the Byrd-Tllaon match, when he aald: "Byrd humiliated me, but be disgraced Tilton." The score on Trawick cups at present stands: Byrd 2. Illll 2. Mr. Byrd won In 1904 nnd 1906 and Mr. Hill In 1903 nnd 1906. By a strange coincidence, l>oth times Mr. Illll won the match In which he heat Mr. Byrd lasted 20 holes, nnd both times Mr. Byrd bent Mr. Illll he did It by a score of 4 up nnd 3 to go. Nnm Trawick, the donor of the Trawick cup, Is In Ccdortown at present on a visit, but will return to Atlanta Saturday night at 7:56 o'clock. Immediately thereafter the thirty-two players who took part In the tournament, together with any other mem bers of the Atlanta Athletic Club Interested In golf, will meet at the town club house, where the cup will he presented Sain Trawick lias offered another Trawick enp to be played for over the Atlanta Ath letic Club's course at East Lake In the fall f 1907. The Trawick cup haa been an an- mini feature of the local golfing world for four years, and the golfers of the city are deeply indebted to Mr Trawick for the cups and the plensure which has been afforded In playing for them. The local golfers aro already making plans to descend In a body on the Birmingham golf club next month for the Invitation tofarnnmont which will he held there the second week In October. Handsome prises hnvo been offered, and It Is reported that the course Is In first-elnss condition. A delegation of ten or a dosen men will prob ably go over from Atlanta.

New York, Sept. 28.—The Vanderbilt cup commission decided yesterday to rescind their decision disqualifying the Pope-Toledo car with Lytle a* a driver, as a contestant In 0ie International race, to be held on October 6. The action of the cup commission disqualifying the car was baaed on the protest of the Frayer-Mlller car mak ers, who protested that the Lytle ma chine broke down In the race last Sat urday at tbe Hair Pin Turn, and had to be pushed over the course two hun dred feet by pedestrians In violation of the racing rules. Lytle nnd Dlngley, who were the me chanics of the Pope-Toledo car In the race, tiled over a dozen nltldavlta with the cup commission, which showed that It was not their enr that broke down on the course, but waa the Frayer-Mlller car, with Lawwcll driving.

EDDIE HANLON HOT FAVORITE Bnn Francslco, 8opt. 28.—During the whole of yesterday, Eddie Hanlon was a strong favorite for tomorrow night's fight. Before night, odds of 10 to 8% were offer- ed agiiliist Dick Hyland, and the Hyland money came In very small lota. J sporting man express*! It, most of the men who bet most heavily on contests of this nature wanted to back lianlou, while the majority of such aa make $5 and 910 bets, faurled the other. The winner of tomorrow'a event will be asked to meet Kid Herman, of Chicago, within the next few week*. The looer will be erased from the Hat of attractions. The knowledge of what tomorrow will reveal lu the mutter of loat or added prestige will probably help to make tbe dash spirited. Hyland nnd Hanlon will weigh lu at 7 p. m.

IS Decatur 6L Kimball Hous* WEIRD DOUBLE IS EXECUTED It Isn't often that a man starts a dou ble play and geta an assist by being hit on the head with a batted ball all the the same time, but Cameron, of Boston, did it the other day. The Na tionals were playing against St. Louis and O'Hara scratched out a single and Burch followed him at bat. Came ron pitched him a high one and he lined It down toward ttyi pitcher's box. It came so fast that Cameron could not dodge and the, ball cracked him right on top of the head. Fortunately for Boston, it bounded high and back In the direction of home plate aud Catch er O’Neill went under It and caught It before It touched the ground. That put Burch out and when O'Neill threw to first O'Hara waa easily retired. Cameron got an assist for his part In Se play, but he had to retire from the game, suffering with a bad headache. NEXT GLIDDEN TOUR MAY BE RUN THROUGH SOUTH ,Washington, D. C„ Sept. 28.—If the Glldden automobile tour Is to be over a Virginia route next year with Nor folk and tho Jamestown Exposition the goal, the cars entered for the trip will meet with great obstacles and bad roads, according to C. Royce Hough, manager of the Pope Manufacturing Company, who was one of the party of three which made the trip from here to Norfolk last week. "It will be a question of the survival of tho Attest.” said Mr. Hough today. “There will be no perfect scores. Of course the route Is possible for the tour, but I don't believe any but the best cars will go the whole trip. Many of them will have to ship. I drove our party every foot of the way. At one time, down there In the swamps near Norfolk I was going steadily for three hours and a half and made only 22 miles. That shows you how hard the going la." It waa proposed to have the Glldden tour start next year from Chicago. In dianapolis and St. Louis with the goal at Norfolk, so that the tourists could lake In the Jameatown Exposition at the end of their 1,000-mlIe run. With a view to flndlng out the advisability of this route through Virginia, Mr. Hough and Mr. Claudy made the trip. In my opinion," aald Mr. Hough, “It Is a fairly good route for the Glld den tour, because of the very fact that there will be no perfect scores. But also there will be no easy driving be tween Richmond and Norfolk, nnd I think it will be Impossible for thef Double and Triple Passes Features of Tech Practice Tech field was a busy spot Thursday afternoon and In spite of the rain and wind a large squad of players were out and working like beavers under the direction of Coach Heisman and Assistant Coach Bean. One feature of the practice which brought wonderment to the followers of football who saw the practice on Thursday for the first time was the be wildering array of passes which were dished out by the Tech team. Double passes, triple passes, for ward and back, this way and. that— they were all worked by the Tech can didates and already the members of the team are beginning to take kindly to this novel development of the game. Coach Heisman may or may not work fancy pass plays In the frames this sea son, hut he Is certainly giving the play a thorough try-out In practice. The hardest thing for the spectators to reconcile themselves to Is the for- ward pass. It Is so contrary to all the old rules and precedents that when the ball goes shooting up the field In x forward pass It seems Inevitable that some fatal mistake has been made, and that the team will be sent back and penalised for that breach of football etlquet. In spite of the fast work that If be ing done by the Tech team It Is obvious that the material Is not up standard, and that Coach Heisman will have to do wonders to develop a win ner this season.
