Pretty Flowers
Blooming Here :
We wish all of you could find a
chance to go by Mrs. Minnie
White's .on Hancock avenue, and
‘see her cactus plant. It's in a pot
and isn't so very big, but it has
over sixty blooms on it. Mrs.
‘White said she counted up to sixty
five and then got tired. Many of
the blooms are double—that is,
there are two blooms to many of
the stems. The shade of the flower
is a Adelicate pink, which is a cros
between salmon and rose. Mrs,
White raised it from a cutting—
not from a root, and it's grown to

ed by Mr. X. One member of the
grand jury—a man who hag been
on several grand juries in the past
few years—had an inspiration.
“Wasn't this fellow up before the
grand jury theree years ago for
the same offense®™ he asked. Mr.
X smiled. “I ghould guess so,” he
said. ‘1 was on the grand jury
that indicted him then!”
Speaking of Juries
And So Forth
Mentioning the grand jury re
minds us of a rather unusual
fact. The criminal docket for the
Sueprior court this term containg
no statutory offenses. The list of
erime ranges irom burglary to po-~
sessing liquor, but none of these
cases which invariably draw a
Jarge audience — primarily, of
gourse, those who are interested in
law and order—are on the docket.
Theatrical Entertainment
During This Week
Athens hag a fine lot of theatri
cal entertainment on the schedule
for them. Wednesday afternoon
and night the Freiburg Passion
Play is to be yresented in the
Physical luducation Building on
thé campus and in the morning
“Little Women” will open a three
day run at the Palace. Katherine
Hepburn who flashed to phenome
nal success in “A Bill of Divorce
ment” is star-ing in this—and all
we've got to say about it -is, “It
hasg to be good!” We haven't been
fortunate enough to see it yet, but
friends who saw i during the hol
idays report that it's the . finest
thing they've witnessed on the
sereen yet, Iy broke records in
New York city, which rather star
fid those who think of New York
as the hard-boiled, sophisticated

this movie to Athens so soon after

| Doubleheaders Here Fri
t day and Saturday
BY JACK REID
The Atheng High basketball team
will play two home games this
week-end, clashing with the Wash-}
jington Figh school quintet Friday
night and the strong Lavonia five
on Saturday night. These games,
will be the first time that the lo
| calg have played either Washing
ton or Lavonia, but two fast, close |
and exciting games are exlnc-(:ted.l
{ The Athens girls will also meet
the girls teams of both of these
schools, and both of the double
headers will start at 7:45 P‘riday’
and Saturday nights. All of the,
games will be played in the Ath~'
ens High school gymnasium, and
admis#ion v@ll be 10 and 20 cents
Coach Sam Gardener's team
which was supposed to be rather
weak at the first of the season,
promises to. be one of the best
fivés in this district as it shows
improvement every week and
should win most of itg games dur
ign the rest of the season.
The Maroon quintet has played
nine games so far this season, win
ning seven of them and losing but
two. The locals jhave defeated
Winterville twice, Commerce two
times, Watkinsville, Elberton and
Arnoldsville, while they lost to
Jefferson and Watkinsville.,
Jefferson had by far the best
quintet that the Maroons have
played and the boys from Martin
Institute defeated the Atheng five
to the tune of 44 to 18.
The Watkinsville boys barely
edged out the locals by the close
score of 24 to 21. L
The Maroons won their first
game of the season easier than any
of the others, defeating Winterville
by the score of 37 to 11.

Bulldogs Play
Games Here
Meet Florida Wednesday
And Thursday; Tech
Here Saturday
By CARL HANCOCK
The Georgia Bulldogs meet their
first Southeastern conference op
ponents of the season here Wed
nesday night when they take on
the Unviersity of Florida ’Gators
at Woodruff hall. The contest
starts at 8:00 o’clock and the ad
mission will be 60 cents.
The Georgia five looked fairly
good in the wto games with Chat
tanooga last week-end, but Coach
Rex Enright saw plenty of rough
spots in the play of the Bulldogs,
and he is spending the first two
days of this week in an endeavor
to polish these up.
Three hard games are on the
slate for the Bulldogs this week.
They meet Florida again on Thurs
day night, and then do battle with
the Georgia Tech Engineers here
Saturday. Neither the 'Gators nor
the Jackets have looked especially
impressive iin their games so far,
but early season appearances are
deceptive more often than not.
Tech lost a close game to the
strong Vanderbilt five last Satur
day. ;
The Bulldogs won both games
last week, defeating thé Univer
sity of Chattanoga Mocecasins Fri
day, 23 to 16, and coming back
Saturday to win again, 32-18,
The Georgians looked rather slow
in the first game, but showed
iflmi:hes of real form in Saturday
night's melee.
‘ New Faces
- The opéning Gerogia lineup
against Chattanooga showed three
faces unfamiliar to basketball
fans of last season. The three
were Harrison Anderson and
lFrank Johnson, forwards, and Hal
Gibson, guard. Johnson, a sopho
more, was a reserve guard on this
season’'s football squad, and at the
end of the season was in there
battling for a regular post.: As a
basketball player he also shows
great promise, appearing perfectly
at home on the court.
Anderson is a junior in school,
but this is his first season with
the varsity. He is a natural bas
ketball player, and when he gains
more confidence in himself, he will
be one of the mainstays of the
team. Gibson, alsé a sophomore,
has been teaming with Brown
Wilder at guard since the first of
the season, and now seems to be
a fixture there.
Athens fans have a treat in store
for them in the form of three
games this week, all of which
should be close, hard fought bat
tles. They will do much toward
determining the strength of this
yvear's Bulldog quintet.

During Week
FIRST 3 HOLES
IN FOUR UNDER PAR—
AND NOT A PUTT
By NEA Servce
LOS ANGELES — IFour under
par for the first three holes—and
not a single putt!
That's the record of Walter
Marsh, manager or a public links
golf shop here.
Walter's feat started on the first
hole of his round. No., 1 a par 4
of 415 yards, saw him hole out a
mashie shot for an eagle tow from
a distance of 1656 yards. On the
second hole, a per § measuring
535 yards, he holed out a mashie
niblick of 30 yards for a birdie.
Another mashie-niblick shot, this
one of 60 yards, wag holed out on
No, 3 hole for another birdie.
Vines Prepares For
Professional Debut
Against Bill Tilden
NEW YORK.—(AP)—Shortening
odds Tuesday reflected the ‘fine
showing KEllsworth Vines has been
making in practice for his profes
sional tennis debut against Big
Bill Tilden in Madison Square
Garden Wednesday night. y
Working out Monday with Bruce
Barnes, another member of ithe
pro troupe, the tall Californian
showed bursts of superlative speed
and power in his hitting although
Barnes was leading when the
match was called, 6-4, 4-6, 3-2,
Tilden came out on the practice
court a short time later and mop
ped up blonde Sidney B. Wood, a
leading amateur, 6-0, 6-3.
Promoters of the match announ
ced the advancé sale had reached
about $12,000 and predicted close
to a capacity crowd of 16,000. The
Garden is ‘“scaled” to bring a
“gate” of $40,000 in the event of
a sell-out. Tilden and Karel Koze
luh attracted the record profes
sional tennis crowd in 1931 with
14,000 spectators paying about
$30,000.

PROPOSED BOXING
BOUT CALLED OFF
Jacob Wants Too Muck
Money for Schmeling to
Fight Levinsky
By CHARLES DUNKLEY
(Associated Press Sports Writer.)
CHICAGO.— (AP) —The black
eves of Leaping Lena Levy, sister-
Levinsky, snapped fire Tuesday as
Levinsky ,snapped fire Tuesday as
she moaned the loss of a fight with
Max Schmeling, slated for the Chi
cago stadium, February 16.
The ‘proposed bout fell through
Monday night after a row over the
divigsion of the purse.
Joe Jacobs, manager of the Ger
man, had demanded 37% percent,
with the expectation that Levinsky
would accept 22% percent, but Ja
cobs didn't figure Leaping Lena in
his expectation. She wyelled and
screamed that the XKingfish, her
big brother, the conqueror of Jack
Dempsey, was entitled to just as
wuch money as Schmeling. Unless
she gets it, she said, there will be
no fight.
“Why, the idea,” she yelled,
‘“svhy should that big Dutchman
gel more money than the King?
Ain’t he just as much of an attrac
tion? Didn’t he fight 30 rounds
with Max Baer and never get
knocked off his feet? And didn’t
Baer knock that Schmeling out?{
I'm telling the cockeyed world, hel
did. And didn’t Jack Sharkey beat
Schmeling? And didn’t the King
fish give Sharkey the pasting of
his life? I'm telling you he did.”
“That’s right, Lena, you tel]
’em,” chimed in the Kingfish, rais
ing his 206 pounds out of the chair.
“That guy don’t want-to fight me,
that's all, He’s just another suck
er like that McCorkindale. The
old Kingfish would belt him on the
whiskers with .this right hand and
he’'d hit the deck just like that
MeCorkindale did. Boy, that guy
was down seven times. Schmeling
don’t want to fight me, that’'s why
he wants all the money. The
Kingfish would murder him, punch
him right full of holes—llike this.”
And the Kingfish took a mighty
swing with his right fist, nearly
falling on his face from the force
of the swing.
With the Levinsky-Schmeling
bout off, at least temporarily, Ja
cobs was preparing to sign for a
