GAINESVILLE, Ga. — (Special
to The Banner-Herald.)—Athens
High’s brilliant crew of basket-
eers dropped over last night for a
battle with Gainesville High and
won easily by the score of 43 to
20. The visitors presented a
most dazzling offenso which was
led by their mighty captain, Paul
Nicholson. Although Gainesville
High fought tenaciously they wero
bewildered by the speedy visitors’
pass work and all round floor
work.
Capt. Nicholson of the invaders
led the field in scoring with a to
tal of fifteen markers. Nicholson
branded himself as the greatest
high school forward who ever per
formed here in many moons. Ho
was ably supported by little Davis

Stancill was the big gun for
the locals and next in line came

Athens High Girls Defeated By
Marietta Girls in Fast Game
Game Opens With a Rush
and Red and White
Makes Scores, Only to
Lose Later.
BY HAL JACKSON
Launching a mighty attack in
the first half but failing to get
going in the final period, Athens'
High girl qtintet went down be
fore the Marietta five here last
night by a tf to 1 wore. It was a
fine game all the way and Athens
High has no reason to feel bad
over this defeat for they played a
great game and fought a great
f'ght.
The memorable clash began
with a rush and the Red and
White clan snatched an early lead
which they maintained by steadj
play and good work by the guards.
Aided by some beautiful shots by
Miss Louise Knowles and Cecil
Jones the home team tallied six
points to nought for the invad
ers.
While the Red and White clan
was amassing these points Mari
etta High, however, was gradual
ly hitting their stride and it
could be seen there was yet to be
some stormy seas for the locals to
traverse. The invaders had
ball and they were simply out- good deal of hard luck on their
classed by the phenomenal visi
tors. Athens High has about the
fastest quintet that ever perform
ed here and should continue their
long string of victories.

A CORRECTION
kW
V
In the statement made before the Kiwanis club on Thurs
day and in the report in the Banner-Herald of Friday, the
cost of producing and delivering each Kilowatt hour was
stated as 1.52 cents. This was an error which we wish to
correct inasmuch as the proper figure should have been 1.31
cents leaving a profit of one mill instead of a loss—the aver
age receipts per kilowatt hour being 1.41 cents as stated. It
must be remembered, however, that this profit of one mill is
on the amount of energy distributed for power and should bo
sufficient to care for the interest on 80 per cent of the total
investment of the company in its generating, transmission
and distributing equipment.
The error was due to including an item on the cost that
was really a fixed charge and therefore should not, have
been considered in this connection, although in the last analy
sis it must be met out of the net earnings.
- We wish this correction to have as wide publicity as the
original statement.

Where did Coach Bill White
of the baseball teams get that
right arm? .
That’s a question that his
hundreds of friends here are
asking after taking a peep at
their schedule posters “Dopey”
Costa has issued for this sec
tion of the state.
On this poster a large pic
ture showing baseball action
on Sanford Geld has Bill rap
ping out n stinging groundc
to the infield with a right
hand grasping the willow and
his left arm dangling as the
useless member.
BUI hasn't lmd the use of a
right hand and arm since a
day in his youth when, ns a
boy. he was shooting rabbits
In South Georgia and stumbled
over a wire fence or some
thing. ,
’ But there ho Is In that pic
ture, Just as clear as printers
Ink can make, the possessor
of a perfectly normal right
hand and arm, and you
wouldn't doubt your own eyes
would yon?
And—
Bill says. “Why all this
switching of wings after I
.have trained that left handed
lunch grabber to function ns It
does; don’t work on me, I
can’t play. Turn the trick on
some right hander for box
work, we need a good portslde
pitcher.”
In the meantime "Dopey”
Costa Is trying to figure out
how In the Samhlll the thing
happened.
Mail Deliveries to Be
Stopped At Places

Almost every ball club, especial
ly In the big leagues, has at least
one “set up" In its battle front.
That Is a player who never casts
much fear Into tho opposition
whenever he steps to plate because

In other words, fellows who do
well to massHgo the ngato around
the .225 mark.
It Is doubtful It there was ever
a more lamentably weak hitter to
grace a big league plato than was
George McBride, former manager
of the Washington club, and for
many years shortstop on tbe same
team
In the parlance of tho game,
Georg i couldn't "hit the size of his
hat,” and barters throughout the
American League had a happy fao-
ulty of passing men, when In «
pinch, jest sc as to get at Mc
Bride, and invariably the strategy
worked »o perfection.
■iMac” almply couldn’t swat tho
old apple. He wasn’t what might
be termed a “whlffor," usually be
ing able tn make connections with
the ball, but was either popping
out or sending measly little taps
to tho infield.
McBride was a consistent ’’200”
hitter, seldom getting much above
that figure. In Ills second season
In the main canopy he accrued a
batting average of but .1(9, making
53 hits In '0 games Incidentally
that "stunning’’ stick work earned
him his release from the St. Louie
Cardinals. That was In 1906. Two
years later he got on with Wash
ington, whore be finished his ma
jor league playing days.
Coupled to Ms batting shortcom
ings, McBride was anything but a
fast man on the aacks, seldom pil
fering over 15 cushions a season.
Nor was ho a good “waiter.” All
of which probably accounts for tbe
fact that McBride usually batted
in eighth position in the Nationals'
lineup.

basketeera copped a double bill
from tbe Invading Washington
High crew here Friday night, the
lassies winning 23 to 4 while the
local lads downed their opponents
42 to 26. Both games were rather
one sided due to the home teams
marked supperiority. Although
Washington fought hard all the
way they were unable to cope with
the nne team work of the home
teams.
The girls fracas; the first of the
evening was slow and uninterest
ing as tbe Athens High crew led
all the way and were never threat
ened. Fine pass work and good
shooting marked the locals play
during tbe entire game. The local
lassies snatched an early lead and
continued on the way to their over
whelming victory.
The visitors fought hard but
they were unable to tally a single
Held goal during the entire battle.
For tbe greater part of the game
they were on the defense and had
