ably in the best condition of his|,
career, and Gregory will have Lo |
be plenty good to stick with him.
Gregory has nat been in the box
ing game for so long a time, ale ]
though' he has heen fighting longer

iSeven Candidates Out for|
. Pitching on First Day
! Of 1935 Practice ’
1 l
Nineteen answered the first call
‘ior baseball practice at the Uni- |
versity of Georgia, yesterday :11‘~:
’tornoon. Cy Grant, captain of the|
|loam this year, had charge of the|
{ light workout, and will continue
ttn do so until football ends Friday. |
i There were several boys out fnr{
’pitching assignments, the one phc«-,
the Bulldogs are weak. Seven can- |
‘did:itos for mound duty were onl
{ hand. ‘There were J. D. Marable,
’Julius Bishop, Geer, Benamin, .\.l
{G. Foster, Harold Halstrand and
| “Lefty” Nichols,
{ Of this crew, only one man, Nich
gols‘ was a starter last season.’
. Marable, Bishop. Geer and Hal-]|
%snund were candidates for pitch-i
; ing duties, but did not see much |
| service. !
| Frank Johnson, baskethall :mdl
| football star, is expected to re]mrti
for baseball after Friday. Jnhnsnni
i“ being counteg on to come through
{as a hurler.
! The Bulldogs have evervthing it!
itakes to make a great basehalli
j team this vear, with the exception
of pitching. There are .plenty ,of
heavy hitters, and great fielders,
‘ and an excellent catching corp.
ing but exercise your arms. There
is a limit to your muscular ex
pectancy in proportion to . the slzei
of your bones. In this same sense
if one is afraid exercise will give
him wrists too large let me assure
you that this is almost an impos
sibility. Remember we are talk
ing of muscle tissue and not fat.
Among the largest and best de
veloped men in the world, none of
them wenre able to increase the
gize of their wrist more than 10
per cent. It is safe to say there
fore that the size of the bones of
the body seem to be determined
by inheritance and that grown
people can increase the size of
their bones very little by exercise.
For thig reason we should strive
for a symmetrical body in pro
portion to the size of your frame.
The forearm shoud ymeasure 1.7
times the wrist. As g general rule
we might say that in the well
proportioned man his upper arm,
his calf, and his neck should meas
ure approximately the same.
The next time you hear a man
boast of having arms measuring
“too large” ask him to let you
measure his wrist. If he claims
to have more than twice that for
his upper arm you can safely bet
he is slightly boasting. Again, fat
doesn’t count. Poor old fat just
doesn't count anywhere. It cer
tainly does more to destroy the
good proportions of the body than|
anything else, ‘
Letters asking advice on health
problems should be addressed to

gest day. Six games will be play
ed the last day, with semi-finals in

ing played during the day, and the
finals at night.
- It is the second guccessive year
' that Athens High has represented
the Tenth district in the “B” di
vision, hut Colbert is entering its
first state tournament. Colbert
won the “C™ title in this district.
l The Maroons are not given
' much chance at the title, but Col

tion, and are favored to win the
championship.

“Devil Dogs of the
Air” Thrills Large
Audiences at Palace
Athenians who like a movie in
wiich is includeq numor and ex
citement, the love element and
danger, have a chance to enjoy
“Devil Dogs of the Air’ showing
at the Palace today and tonight for
the last time.
Large addiences viewed the pic
ture yesterday and last night and
were kept busy laughing at the
antics of Jimmy Cagney and Frank
McHugh, “the man with a mission
in life,” following the theme of
tender love interest which runs
through the picture, or sitting on
the edges of the seats as the Mar
ine planes zoomed through all
sorts of amazing formations,
The wonderful picture, and it is
really wonderful, was made pos
sible through the cooperation of
the United States Marine Corps
and the United States Navy. Fleet
.maneuvers in the Pacific with the
16-inch guns booming, the air fleet
laying smoke screens for Marine
landing parties will increase your
respect for Uncle Sam’s defensive
agencies,
¢ pposite Cagney is Pat O’Brien
as the other male lead, and once
more they make the perfect team.
The love interest is injected ‘into
the picture in the very personable
Margaret Lindsay.
The picture is well worth seeing
so den’t miss it.

Cardinal Contract Sent
Back Unsigned By Foster
Julian Foster Says He
Is Not Holdout, But
Wants to Wait
BY F. M. WJILLIAMS
Julian Foster, former football,
basketball and baseball star at
Vanderbilt university, and now a
professional bsaeball star, has re
turned an unsigned contract to the
St Louis Cardinals, it was learned
vesterday.
Julian, who has been in pro base
ball since his graduation from
Vandy in 1932, says he is not a
holdout, but believed it hest to talk
things over with Branch Rickey,
before he puts his name on the
«dotted line.
“Unless something unforseen
comes up, I will report to Avon
Park, Florida, March 17,” he said,
Columbus, Ohio, of the American
Association, and Number One farm
of the Cards, will train at Avon
Park this spring.
Foster played with Houston of
the Texas league last year, and had
a good season, hitting well over
.300. He started the season with
CGreensboro, N. C., but was sent to
Houston after a few weeks of the
season,
Best Football Player
“The greatest college football
player that 1 ever met on the grid
iron was Beattie Feathers, of Ten
nessee,” Foster said in reply to a
question on that subject. “The
best college baseball player that 1
played against was Freddie- Sing
ton, of Alabama,” he continued.
Foster is of the opinion that night
baseball will eventually make its
way into the majors, and when it
does, he believes, it will be suc
cessful. In the Texas league, the
majority of games are played at
night, and it attracts many more
people than a day game, he said.
“Night ball is bad for a player,
but the fans like it, and will pay
to see it, so we juse as well make
up our ming to play at night)”
Foster said. ‘lt is mighty tough
on a fellow’'s eyes, however,” he
said.
Foster, who is a student at the
University law school, had plenty
to say about Harold Epps, the local
baseball star, who will train with
Columbus this year, He. needs a
little more experience, however, the
former Vandy star believes,
‘g Praises Epps
“¥e'll be ready in one more
‘year,” Foster said, regarding Epps.
“Ile has speed, can hit, and can
throw, but he will have to improve
on his fielding, I think. I believe
he will go on up,” Julian said.
“Epps reminds me of Ty Cobb,
in a way,” said Foster. Julian said
he had seen the famous Georgia
Peach play many time, and that
Epps had just as much speed.
Asked what was his biggest thrill
in sports, Foster said he couldn’t
say. However, he said, his biggest
tarill in football was when Vandy
beat Minnesota 33 to 7.
“My biggest thrill in baseball
came in my first professional game,
I was playing in an exhibition
against the Yankees, and managed
to get three hits,” he said. “That
was certainly thrilling, because the
Yankees were world's champions
then.
In relating some of his exper=
jences in baseball, Foster told of
one incident that was unusual, and
one that we had never read or
heard before.
Unusual Story
“When I was playing ball in the
Geargia State league, in 1933 there
was a boy in the league named
“Chief” York, he began, “York was
a catcher. Along about the end of
the season, some scout picked him
up and he was sent to Beaumont.
“For the remainder of the 1932
season he failed to get into a game,
and in 1934 he again reporteq to
Beaumont. Beaumont, however did
not have room for him .on its
roster, and he was ‘loaned” to
Fort Worth, subject to be recalled
at any time. :
“About a month after the season
started, one of Fort Worth's out
fielders was injured, and York was
sent in to play. He played for!
‘about two months, and hit 26
home runs, and Detroit, who uses}
Beaumont for a farm, called him
in just before the season ended.l
The Tigers won the pennant, and |
York managed to get into a couple
of World Series games as a pinch
hitter,” Julian related.
It is something unusual, when a
ball player goes from a semi-pro
league to the majors in a year.

MAROON GRIDSTERS
STANNAGENCADIY
Yesterday afternoon, Coach
Howell Hollis, the head-man of
Athens High school football, broke
thg suspense that has been hang
ing over the Maroon football camp
for weeks and let his candidates
losse . for their first football
serimmage of the spring session.
It is needless to say that the
boys showed the usual “first
serimmage” form, they always do
when they get down to what they
consider the “real football” work.
However, during the long
serimmage, it was wvery easy. to
see that some of the boys, though
small in statue, know plenty of
foothall and all that remains is
for Hollis to bring it out wigh the
finer points and plenty of practice.
There is no scrimmage expected
this gfternoon, but a hard workout
will probably fill the card with the
second skirmish coming about
Wednesday and another perhaps
Thursday or Friday.
Eobby Daniels, guard was the
orly returning ctterman who touk
part in yesterday’s scrimmage, but
several others are expected soon,
especially after the announcement
that at least one spring game with
Grenesboro is a certainty.
The lone veteran gave a good
account of himself in the work
yesterday, as did “Coot” Bryant,
Wheeler Hawkins, Jack Cooper, C.
B. Guest, Jimmy Stephenson, Jack
Davis, and several others.
The only mishap of the serim
mae hefell Mell Bray, when he
broke his arm. All other candi
dates came out of the serimmage
with scuh minor ailments as
bruises, scratches, cuts. Bray will
be out for the remainder of the
spring, it was announced.

The most extensive tennis sche
dule in recent years was announced
vesterday by the TUniversity of
Georgia officials. Not gince the days

even, then, did ithe tennis team
face such competitors as Tech,
Clemson, Alabama, Mississippi, Da

ble foes.
Georgia has several veterahs re
turning, including Bud Lindsay and
the prospects are bright, although
there is little chance for a cham
pionship team. Wade Hoyt, Ed
mund Laudau, Fhij Jordan, Frank
Swift, and Aaron Cohn sophomore
candidate, are among the expert
racquet weilders.
The team will open its schedule
April 3 and will devote the remain
ing time from now to that date to
improving their games and work
ing hard on doubles play. The
Bulldogs will enter the conference
net tourney in Atlanta May 17 and
18. Six matches prior to the tour

| Annual Tournament
l This is the annual “Y”-DBanner-
Herald torunament, and is expec
!ted to be the best held since the
fdays of the Northeast Georgia
tournament. The awards are
valued at S2OO, and they are avail
' ble only because so many tourna
ments use medals from this com
pany,
~ Because there was not a regular
' basketball league during the past
year, there is not an abundance of
'teams, as has been in the past
years. However, L. H. Cunning
iham, physical director, believes
' that the tournament will be a suc-
Cess.
' There must be at least eight
‘te&ms in the tourney before it can
be staged. This number, however
.is practically assured.
. Teams desiring to enter (he
tournament, and have not hecelv
ed an entry blank, can do so by
contacting L. H. Cunningham a
the “Y” or F. M. Williams, at the
Banner-Herald. Don’t forget, en
!tries close Saturday night at?
o’clock.
l All medals have already been Té
' ceived, and anyone desiring to sef
lthem by calling by the Y. M. C
' A. As soon as_enough teams enter
| to make certain that the tourna
’mem w'll go over, thc medals will
lbe rur on display.
