Tennis Tournament
Attracts Many
Mr. Bonner, Physical Director Re
ports Fine Prospects With
Great Enthusiasm Voiced
With the announcement last
week by Mr. Bonner, West Geor
gia College physical director, to
the effect that a tournament will
be held shortly to determine the
tennis team to represent the
school during the coming season,
the tennis enthusiastics responded
immediately by a large group ol
coth men and women students.
The tournament will probably
be neld, Mr. Bonner said, at the
end Oj. six weens, in which time he
expects all entrants to get into
men best form. Then the team
will make several trips, playing
jL.n.or and senior colleges, and the
major prep schools of the state.
The men s list brought out sev
eral new'comers in the game, as
well as some veterans of this sec
tion. The t>.o favorites are o;nar
Hay and Leveny wampoell, both
of whom much is expected. Hay,
with his terriac service and Camp
bell, with his w r onderful ability for
placement locs, will make a siead
ly double combination.
In the women's ranks there are
several stars, the leader being
Hazel Jones, who has a beautiful
serve and who can cut the ball
with an accuracy which wall be
hard to cope with, no matter w'ho
the opposition may be. However,
there are many other stars, who
with practice will furnish abun
dant material for a good tennis
team.
The tournament will be played
on the courts in front of the wo
men s dormitory. The men will
play for the best 3 out of 5 sets in
Loth singles an ddoubles. The w’o
men will only play for the best 2
out of 3 sets.
With the widespread interest
tnd abundance of good material,
ir. Bonner expects a good tennis
jam, capable, he says, of holding
s own from the start with that of
y in the state.

‘Sports In Review'
It is my whole-hearted intension
to attribute my best abilities to
the composing of this college
paper, as the sports correspond
ent i will do my best to serve the
stuaent body and all readers of
the w est Georgian. Our editor,
Mr. marker, oesmwed this nonor
upon me mid i must that I can ful
fill his continence in me.
The emblem “Hill-billies” w'as
voted on by the majority of the
students, this decision was an
nounced in the cnapel exercises,
and within an hour after tne an
nouime~mn„ petitions were circu
lating in favor ot changing the em
blem to "cufialo,’ Orphans of 'the
Storm,” “Wild-cat” and other vi
cious names. Phis is very, very
hard to understand.
Preparations are being made for
the fall tennis tournament which
will ue held witnin the next ten
days according to the Athletic Di
rector, Coach Bonner. The match
es will be held on the two best
courts and a large number of fans
are c.vpoCieu to turn out for the
occasion, xiairis "oc Hay, city
champion of this year, should ha\e
little trouble in disposing of the
opp< o.Liuii. ii.t; urawings will take
place the first oi next week.
A certain Mr. Taylor noncahant
ly dropped the undersized basket
ball unough the goal Ironx a point
very near the center of the court.
“I can t shoot this bail - he said,
and meant it. Several more such
shot occurred with the same reply
—he missed occasionally. I can t
wait to see this man lay hands on
the real thing, somethings bound
to happen.
Judging from the prospects, the
team will be very formidable. Fif
ty men are expected to report next
month and it w r il] be hard to select
five men from such a number of
basketeers. Basketball will be play
ed intercollegiately, as I under
stand it. Here’s hoping West Geor
gia College starts early in acclaim
ing honors for herself.
Freshmen Will Test
Sophs in Frist Speed
Ball Contest
Here’s something stirring! The
Freshman will endeavor to give
the Sophs a severe trimming in
the first speed-ball game ever play
ed in the state of Georgia, or
might be right in saying tne whole
of the southern states. This game
is an exciting and strategic one
and is seemingly a combination of
football, hocney and soccer. Each
side is composed of eleven men,
the position names have not yet
been learned. .Little is known of
the game yet, but it is being adopt
ed by several higii scnools and col
leges in Georgia. This game will
oe played only among our stud
ents for the present, out we hope
to schedule with other
teams soon. '
