' All of the winners had hard hnt-l tles before copturing the games, and the fe:lg'ue shows promise of being one of the most interesting ever organized here. All the teams are evenly match ed, it appeared in las;y weeks games, and the race f{or the win ners should be ~lose and ‘excitihg. The outcome will be in doubt unti] the final games, if the results of the games alrcady played can be used ag examples. The game between Winder and Statham was the most interesting of the opening day's play. These two teams fought eleven innings betor% a crowd of over 500 peaple beforg the Barrow county téam could! push over a score to win, 11 to 10! So gfar as real baseball is con cerned, the witnesses to the Ath ens- itehall. and the Bishop- Crawjord games saw almost flaw less %aseball, RBoth these games ended 'n similar scores, §to 0, but the tcome of each was uncertain until §the last man was out in the ninth? inning.

By F. M. WILLIAMS The second boxing card, in as! many weeks, promoted by K. O Franks, will be held tonight at the' Athens arena, 142 Clayton street, and -the fighters are anxiousi,\'l I'aWaitmg the opening gong. Ad- | ‘mission to the fights will be 25 ‘and 40 cents, and men, women and | \chfldren gre assured’ a ‘night of | ‘thrilling entertainment at the fight The entertainment begins at 8:00 o'¢lock. Promoter Franks has devised a ‘splendid program for this week, and feelg sure that the people of Athens. willl “gét their money’s worth” in witnessing these leath er-slugging conteésts. ! " Buster Wages, for several years one of the best fighters in. this section, will meet Al Moran in, a return matoh is the main fight of the night. Both of these boys| are in the middleweight class, and | the fight will be with the regula tion four ounce gloves. I The fight will be an eight-round. er, and will be a ‘“winner-take- . all” affair.;, It is being fought on | these termsg by request of Moran, ‘who lest a six-round decision to Wages last week. i After the fight last Friday, Mo ran ' challenged Wages to thksi ‘fight, and like the sport he ds. “Buster” accepted. } Other Good Matches i Besides the main go, five other tights and a Dbattle royal have heen annotnced on the card, which contains 30} rounds of sparkling action, and the battle royal, which | is held first—maybe to get the fans im a good humor. I The battle royal is fought be tween Xgur little Negroes, and the real fighting is left off until "the fans starg pitching small coins into the ring. Pete 'l'arginuy. formerly of Ath ens, but now located at Fort Me- | Pherson, will fight a heavy-hit ting Commerce boy, Woodrow ‘Strickland, in -the semi-windup, and the battle should be a ‘“‘cork ‘er! Both boys are of the slugger type, and the battle 4hould be full of action. Two local boys, Ralph Hardy and Jack Thomas, are matched up in one of the four round tights Both boys are well known here . and are the “rough-and-tumble” type of fighters. That is the kind of fight most fans like to see, and they should be one of ¢he best matched pair on the program. Hugh Tarpley meets Arthur “Kid” Ingram In the other fout round affair. These boys are in the 135 pound class and will offer plenty of actien. Tarpley, who . fought on the last week's card, shows promisel of being one of the best fighters in this section.

A reward of $1,500 was offered immediately after the Frank lynch ing for the conviction of the par ticipants. A coroner’s jury later returned a verdict that the mob men were unknown. A grand jury also inyestigated the case without result. Many claims of Frank’'s inno cence were made, <oelni g Twice Frank carried his legal fight for life to the United States supreme court. Was Famous Case The murder of 14-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory employe of At lanta, appeared at first to be a crime of only local importance. But the fight of Frank and his friends to clear his name develop ed nation-wide interest. The Phagan girl was slain April 26, 1913, on a Southern holiday in observance of Confederate Memo rial day. Shortly after noon that day she was seen to enter the pen cil factory, where she had goneto collect wages due her. Her body was found next morning in the basement of the factory, a cord tied about her neck. Frank was superintendent of the factory. He was arrested three davs later. Tom Linder, secretary to Gover nor Eugene Talmadge of Georgia, said in Atlanta that Georgia would not take steps to return Lockhart until it was seen what ILouisiana would do with him. He said if Lockhart was sentenced te death or given life imprisonment there would not be any need of Georgia seeking his return. “What if he doesn’t get as much as life?” Linder was asked. “I don't think we need to worry about that,” he answered.

P Mr. Mitchell's prog; well-chosen, with » E\f\':;mywu, numbers, and the ””*"’l'n-\au“f of several of them revealed ron artistry. Opening the ’]ff“'r:u was a group of four numb(rhs lm the classic forms: K, »p E" ‘Bach’s “Solfeggio,” with its .tech“ nical brilliance; D'Alberts vy mande,” a Scarlatti Sonata a.:d the Allegro from Beethoveny 86: nata opus 2, No. 1. < The second group consisted of five. Chopin selections. The Nags turne in ¥ which opened thi ject‘éon of the program was playey with a depth of feeling ang great emotional content. The migq, section, Wwith its difficult lefta hand passages, received cleul treatment. :‘ The preludes in F ang ¢ gug ‘the pianist opportunity to display ’technh:al facility, with right-hay runs in the first and left-hang quns in the second. Brief, theg two selections were neverthelesg high lights of the program, wit their cameo-like brilliance. The Etude in E minor played with finess, the gif. cult grace notes being clear, fg the most part, while the middlg section with the singing melogy in the lower register and the . companiment of broken chos was played with a subdued brjl. liance that .was highly moving. |The Fantasie Impromptu clogeg this group. : ‘The third section of the pro. gram was composed of four mod ern numbers: Olsen's ‘“Papillong” Albeniz’'s “Tango” and “Seguidjl. lia,” and Amani’'s “Oriental” While the “Papillons” seemd a bit heavy under Mr. Mitchells Iha.nds. the “Tango” was played | with exquigite taste. A bit slower | than we had uswually heard this 'numher, the rendition Thursday *evemng had a swing and plain | tiveness which is too seldom brought out. The last portion of the program | comsisted of Cesar Franck's “Symphonic Variations” with Mr. Hodgson playing the orches jtral part on a second piano. This tnumber gave full sway to the var ied talents of Mr. Mitchell, and he displayed strength, emotjon, ‘warmth, and brilliance in the | varied moods of this magnificent | number. Mr. Mitchell's playing is mas culine without being cold, and has warmth and feeling without ‘being effeminate. What his play ing seems to lack in technique he makes up in the sensitivity of in terpretation and the imaginative restraint which is displayed. As an encore for the third group, he played the Liszt ar rangement of the “Flying Dutch man,” “Spinning Song.” —B. 0. K.
