THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN, FRIDAY OCTOBER, 19. 1006. UP-TO-DATE NEWS OF SPORTING WORLD TECH READY FOR FOE TECH SEWANEE BATTLE SHOULD BE A WARM ONE Tech Team Does a Little Final Work Friday Afternoon—Sewanee Team on Way to Atlanta. After Friday afternoon'* llcht prac tice the Tech team nlll rest on It* arm* In preparation for the flrat real championship battle of the year, which take* place at Tech park tomor row afternoon between the Smithies and the Purple Tiger* from Bewanoe. The Sewanee team I* already on Its way to Atlanta, and will arlre here early Saturday morning. No game* In Atlanta thl* season, out aide poxlbly of the Georgia and Van derbilt games, will attract a* much at tention aa thl* contest. Undoubtedly more people will see the game than all the rest of the season thus far pul together. A rather good Indication of the In terest the battle Is attracting Is the decidedly lively betting which I* going on. The odds rang* from even money to 4 to 5. and when any odds are given the Sewanee backers have to put up the long end. The under current of feeling seem* to be that Sewanee has a shade the better chance, but owing to the un certainty of the game under the new mien, and because of the confidence of all Tech men in Coach Heisman. the Sewenee backers do not have to go far In the way of giving odds before their money I* snapped up. The probable line up of the two team* In the game Saturday afternoon follows: Tech. Position. Sewanee. Monroe renter. Watkins, (copt.) Henderson ..right guard ....Lumpkin Sweet left guard Evan* Rucker McCarty right tackle....Harris Luck left tackle Stone Hill light end Lewis Brown left end .. ..Williams Robert quarterback.'. ..Elserle Hightower left half.. ..Markley Davies (rapt) ..right half Shipp Means fullback Barrett <( Doc” Payne Tells Players To Loaf During Winter By JAME8 E. (DOC.) PAYNE.' (Local bassbalf fans who got out to see the early doings of th* bass- ball teams in Atlanta last spring and th* on* before, will remember “Doe'' Payne, th* big, good natured, ex-pugilist who acted as trainer, rubber and general jollier for th* Cleveland team. Below will be found a bunch of hot sir from him, about what ball olsyers should do in winter in order to be in th* best condition for spring practlo*. It appeared first in the Cleveland News.) - Having learned something of the human anatomy In fifteen years of the constant training of the various types of athletes, piixeflghtera, wrestlers and ball Mayers, I am tempted to raise my voice In protest when I hear of such- and-such a ball player "keeping In training" through the winter by bowling, and other forms of special ised activity, with the Intention of “keeping In shape" certain muscles which he la In the habit of using and depending on during his active sea son on the diamond. Th* ball player who does this Is doing himself more harm than good. A boll player In the winter time should, generally speaking, lust loaf. He should do only enough exercising to keep himself In health, and above all things, he should not keep any one set of muscles on edge through the off season. Those muscles should be given a rest. He should take only exercise of a general nature, and let Himself grow fat If he keeps In training all win ter he Is certain to be stale In the spring when he should be ready to begin, not to leave off, training. He should return gradually to hard work of the diamond, not stick at It all winter. He should take It very easy at first, and be careful not to overexert himself at the start, as hosts of them do through misguided seal and anxiety to get Into shape as soon aa possible. uninstructed ball player will work himself Into chsrley horse at practice th* first days at some kind of muscular training that pleaaes his fancy, Instead of loosening up all the muscles of hie body by grad ually Increasing gonsral exercise. A boll player, a* a matter of fact, should not be trained down to a fine point. Ilk* a prise fighter, a wrestler or a sprinter at any time. He should exercise hard and breathe deeply out of doors: but he need not strive to become 'long-winded.' He always has ample time for recuperation between his short spurts of activity. Because a ball player appears to be fat naturally, he need not worry over It. Because he Is stout Is by no means an Indication that he Is out of condi tion. Take Bocks Seybold, for In stance, or Cy Young. They are always In perfect trim, yet they look to be anything but athletes because of their bulk. Very often a ball player's physical condition Is held responsible for a streak of poor playing, when It Is really a trouble In a far different quarter. Sometime* his feelings are hurt by harsh rrltlclsm. . I make It a part of my business as masseur and trainer of the team to be always In a good hu mor with the players, and to encour age them with a little jolly now and then. I have found that all athletes need It, so I say. while perhaps rubbing a player who Is falling off In his hitting: "Well, old boy, I'm rubbing In a three- bnso hit now." It pleases him. en courages him. and shows that some body has confidence In him, and ho goes out forthwith possessed of a new courage. During the time I was training Kid McCoy and taking car* of him fn th* ting In his flgHts, he would Invariably ask me for advice between round*. He simply yearned to be directed, encour aged, and jollied along. It Is so with all of them. An ounce of encourage ment Is worth a pound of abuse. Her* arc the three cardinal princi ples which I should set down for the ball player who would know how best to spend his winters so ns to be In the best shape for the Work of the coming spring: First—Take enough exercise of a general nature to cause you to eat and sleep well, and In general, retain good sound health, without, however, being "In training." Second—Do not diet nor refrain from the use of any healthful food which agrees with you and which you en joy. Third—Loaf enough to get a little fat on your muscles, which will provide something to work off In the spring training.

Oct. 19.—A romance that had Its Inception nt the Cnrllsle Indian school, culminated here In the inHrrlnge of Frank Jude nnd Daisy Dyke, both of them full-blooded Indians. Jude also lias a brilliant record on the rldlron. having played end on the Car* * Indian team for several years. crldl lisle Alabama May Cancel Her Game Against Vanderbilt Unlverelty, Ala., Oct. 1#.—With the hardest game of the season only one day off, the University ot Alabama football team finds Itself In the poor est condition It haa been In alnce the Initial practice. The slump which has occurred has been as sudden as un expected, and can for the most part be traced to the Howard college game of last Saturday. In that contest, Neill's coTlar bone was fractured al most In the first scrimmage; but he managed to continue playing till the close. He is now out of the game, however, for several weeks at least. Curtis Is In bed with a very severe "cholly-horee,” while Franklin and Garrett are suffering from lighter at tacks of the same complaint. Burk* has a bad knee, which will prevent him from playlng^anythlng like hli usual game. In the face of all these untoward circumstances. It Is not at all unlikely that Manager Caffey will en- deavor to cancel the game with Van derbilt, which Is scheduled for Sat- urday. If the Commodores refuse to cancel, Coach Pollard will be com. pelled to send up the second team to represent Alabama, a* at least on.. half of the regulars are out of th. game temporarily. It now seems more than likely that the Sewanee Tigers will meet the Uni versity team -on the campus Satur- day, October 27. The negotiation, have not yet been brought to a dose, however. CR0ZIER AND JORDAN TO OPEN NEW SODA AND CANDY STORE Dick Crozler’s and Otto Jordan's Ice cream and soda water and candy emporium Is going to be thrown open to the public Saturday about noon, and the "Home Plate,” as It may be called, will be the mecca of all lovers of basebsll, candy, soda water and the like. Otto and Dick have made a world of personal friends In Atlanta, and a thousand times as many baseball friends, and the whole bunch will turn out tomorrow to show their appreciation for the ball playing that the two stars have done by visiting the new place of business. The new store Is located on Peachtree street In the new building Just below the Aragon hotel, and Is easily the handsomest of Its kind In At lanta. The soda fountain Is the latest and most beautiful product nf the fountain-maker's art that money could buy, and the fittings of the place are right In the class with the fountain. “We are going to give the public the best soda. Ice cream and candy that money can buy," said Dick Crosier, In speaking of the place, "And we are going to try our best to please the public."

Jack Foy Posts His Side Bet, But No Staten Money Shows Born, time ago Jack Foy, th* At lanta pugilist, challenged Harry Sta ten, the Fighting Grocer, also ot At lanta, for a bout. On Wednesday Joe Elllotte, manager *f Staten, came to The Georgian office, accepted the challenge on behalf nf his men, stated that any conditions were agreeable, and that he would Cover any aide-bat from S100 to 1500 which would be posted by Foy. Ho dosed hi* remarks with the statement, “It Is up to Foy. Money talks." Thursday morning Manager Ventura, who looks after Foy's Interests, posted COO with the snorting editor ot The Georgian as the Foy slde-bct. Mr. Elllotte, who was present nt the time, stated that he would cover the bet with cash or a certified check at 2 p. m. But at 2 o'clock Mr. Elllotte did not show up. He stated to Foy, however, that If he could not be there at that time he would be at a certain centrally located cigar ptore at ! o'clock Thursday night. Btaten kept that appointment, but Elllotte and the certified check did not show up. It la now up to Elllotte. In the words of B. Ventura, "He said 'Money talk*.' Well, we’re listening." The meeting between Foy and Sta ten Thursday night was not entirely satisfactory, as the two men could not .agree to term*. Foy wants to hit in the dlnchei and the breakaway.
