The Yyounger you are when, you acquire good timing the bet- | ter chance you will have at any ! sport. Exercise ' Think of other muscles beside | your arms. In most sports strong legs play the most important part. You must be sure you have strong and efficient legs as well as good stomach muscles, back muscles, and arms and shoulders, When vou exercise have a purpose in mind. Make your exercise as nat ural as possible. By that 1T mean do matural movements. If you find that other boys your age can run faster than you ask yourself why. Are his legs stronger? Does he think faster? If so you should ex ercise the running muscles in the legs. If you find you can’t hit a baseball as far as others your age and weight you should strengthen your arms, shoulders, back and side muscles. ! From The Inside ‘ Some youngsters fail to develop strength even though they exer-{ cise ‘diligently. If this is true they should have @ thorough physical; examination by the doctor. This type will need special training. He should place himself under a com petent instructor. Oftentimes it is found some vyoungsters don’t di gest their food mproperly. They may meed a special diet. Be sure there is no “little things” respon sible for your failure to develop. There are sometimes a lot of things to take into consideration and for this reason you should seek advice from those who have had year's of experience in train ing boys. : If you are reasonably strong for your age you should have a sports program that will give you some= thing to do at all times. If, how ever, you don’t have the opportun ity to practice or play regularly enough you should exercise your muscles some other way. The bhoy who wants to train will mever want for the opportunity.

CUNNINGHAM, ‘ Physical Director, Athens Y. M. C. A. CINGINNATI TEAM NEAR LEAGUE TOP Red's Pound Out Second Victory in Two Days Over Pirates BY HUGH 8. FULLERTON, JR. (Associated Press Sports Writer) Cincinnati's Reds, to whom the experts almost unanimously award ed the cellar berth in the National league this season, were only a step from the first place today. The hustling aggregation of voungsters assembled by Chuek Dressen and Larry MacPhail blast ed out their second victory in three starts against Pittsburgh 9 to 4 vesterday. Altogether, they got 14 hits off five pitchers. Jim Bottomley, and Sammy Byrd, former American leaguer, led the parade with three blows. Boston and the New York Giants did not play because of cold weather. Two World Series heroes, Paul Dean and Joe (Ducky) Medwick, gave St, Louis a 1 to 0 triumph over the Cubs. Brother Paul hurled an eight-hit shoutout in a Kkeen duel with Larry French, and Med wick belted a homer in the sixth for the only run. The Phils had to go ten innings to gain a 10-9 decision over Brook lyn in a home run carnival which saw seven blows, two by Dolph Camilli, sail out of the “bandbox” park. The Senators rang up their sec ond straight victory in the Ameri can league despite Jimmie Foxx's feat of slamming his second homer in as many days, edging out the Athletics 6 to 5. The Yankees knocked the Boston Red Sox off the peak with a 4 to 0 triumph. Detroit’s champion Tigers evenedi the count against Chicage, winning 5 to 4 largely because of th& wild ness of the SoX’s pitchers. | The Indians and Braves remained undefeated with one victory apiece as_cold weather forced the post ponement of their games with the Browns and Giants, respectively. FEDERAL COURT : ATLANTA — (® — Disposition of approximately 185 cases was recorded in the northern district of federal court as it prepared to move to Gainesville next week = where nearly 100 cases are on the calen. dar.

Follow-‘ ing the experiments performed by Coach Weems Baskin with his ca.n-] didates in the Furman meet andl with the bitter rivalry existing be-1 tween the Plainsmen and the Bull-. dogs, some few records may be top-! pled, | Last week Wes Calhoun, one of; Georgia’s best 440 men in years, (as a matter of fact he holds the Geor gia record) was used in the 220 and not in either the 440 or 886, the latter which he has participat ed in some number of times. To make the rejuvenation more complete Coach Baskin ran Shorter Rankin, sophomore half-miler whe won the A, A. U. race last year whiie a freshman, in the mile. Ran kin coasted through in remarkable time for his first attempt and mdy be called upon to run the sama event Saturday. | Townes Outstanding ,[ However, the wsurprise of the transformations was the brilliant ‘time accomplished by Forrest “‘h‘pe(-" Townes, lanky sophomore hurdler, in the 100 yard dash. ' Townes skipped down the century [strvluh in 9.9 seconds to top first Eplavv. Not satisfied with this | Townes lowered his recently set record in the high hurdles from |IS.3 seconds, to 15.1 seconds, won | the 220 low hurdles and tied with lHarry Harman in the high jump. i ‘Whether the entrance of these performers in the new events will lhe permanent will be largely de ' termined by their showing against lthe strong cinder team represent ing Auburn. The Tigers consist ently have one of the leading teams in the south and until thai sudden rise of L., S. U. was the, qutstundivng producer of fine track teams in the conference, { i Short Sprints ‘ Pinky Mooere and Glenn Johnson | will again be available in the short. | sprints., Whether Ben Boulware; Isnphf more, will be the lone Geor | sia representative in the 440 is l unknown. Calhoun may appear in | this event and Johnsop may be | pushed up into the race. | | Fenton Cox and Rankin showed | up fine enough into the mile and lwill likely be back in there again Saturday. KEvan Major is the ace |twn miler of the squad but will face tough Tiger opposition. Townes and Jones will be in the high hurdles with Townes and Johnny Bond in the lows. Townes will very likely again appear with the 100 yvard dash men. Maurice Green, Harry Harman, and Buck Chapman are the weight men. Green and Harman will enter the broad jump. Townes and Harman are the high jumpers with Edwin ]]'{nundtr(-p and John MecKnight do ing the vaulting. Roundtree reach |ed 11 feet 10 inches against Fur gman and will give the Tigers !plr'm,\' of trouble. With the basebal’ team playing |(‘lemson in South Carolina the track meet features the sport card for the week and an unusually large crowd is expected. Athens Golfers to Play Richmond Here Tomerrow Afternoon Athens High's golf team will make it’s fourth effort to score a victory tomorrow afternoon at about 2 o'clock against the strong Richmond Academy foursome. The Maroons have won once and lost twice in previous matches. Athens and Richmond have mot plaved one another before, but a keen rivalry exists between the two schools, and a close match is ex pected. Coach Howell Hollis, of the local team, said this morning that arrangements would be made Sat urday for a retur nmatch with Riehmond. Athens won its first match of the! vear, from Boys High, but lost its next two starts to Tech High of At lanta by huge scores. Tech High, however, has not lost a match in over three vears, and hold the championship for Georgia High schools. » Jimmy Dudley is captain and No, 1 player for the Maroons. Other members of the team are Robert Hodgson, Bobby Wilson and Reid Harris. HIGHWAY SYSTEM COLUMBIA, 8.

They faced the 17th all even. This hole was a long par three of 190 yards. A cross-wind made holding the green difficult, Selecting a No. 2 iron, Cooper hooked his tee shot into the rough, 70 feet fromt he green. Laffoon put his first one on, and had two putts for a par. To lose a stroke here probably meant losing the match for Coo per. On approaching his ball to play his second out of the rough, Cooper found the pellet on a bank. This position called for a shot to be played from a hanging lie, Forced to stand above the ball, the En glishman played the shot with a niblick, scpoped the sphere out, and laid it three feet from the cup. He sank the putt and kept the match alive, Threes were scored on the 18th, and each’ finished with a card of 67, forcing the playoff into ano ther 18 holes, in which Cobper de feated his younger opponent, 66 to 69. “It was the greatest shot I play ed in the tournament,” Cooper re- Jates, ",’[(')he contour of the ground call ed ¥or a shot that had to be hit from | the inside.

Hatfield, Republican, who op posed Holt last November. The protest claimed Holt was ineligible for the seat because he has not vet reached the age of 30 required by the constitution.

COLORADO SPRINGS — ® — John Eareckson, Baltimore, Md., wrestler, staggered 15 miles through a blinding overnight blizzard from near the top of Pikes Peak to reach safety Thursday at a miner's shack ‘near Cripple Creek. ~ Between 30 and 40 cars also were recovered from snow drifts along ‘the Divide-Cripple Creek highway ‘where they had been marconed all mt’ sR i o iSe i T R B Final Game to Be Played Tomorrow on Clemson Baseball Field After gaining an even break in two games played here last week the Georgia Bulldogs left today to invade the Jlodine State for a re turn series with the Clemson base ball aggregation. The games will be played at Clemson college today and Saturday. The Bulldogs thus far have been very inconsistent. The team was very impressive in the opening game when it battered out a vic tory over the Buford semi-pros. Against the world champion Cardi nals the Georgia boys looked about as good as any college team would against the pace setters of the ma jors. Then games in the collegiate cir cle began. Georgia tossed the first to Auburn on errors but came back to win the second. When the two teams met here the sophomore Keystone combination, of Ander son and Watkins, went haywire and the Bulldogs bowed. The sec ond game was rained out and the Clemson series followed. Johnson’s Hurling As Frank Johnson hurled five hit ball to give a very dazzling show on the mound the Georgia infield and outfield played errorless ball and snagged many blows that ap peared to be certain hits. However in the second game the team again looked ragged and the South Caro linians won out, In practice this week the team has kept up its inconsistency. One day the infield fields like the well organized unit representing St. Louis in the National league and the next day reminds one of a light hearted crew of green high school rookies. Coach Smith, who has worked hard with his rookies and his none too potent mound staff, is hoping for the best in the forthcoming series. The team packs punch but with three sophomores, Anderson, Moore and Watkins, in the infield the defense is none too good. Not Best Form Alf Anderson, the outstanding of the trio of new men, has not reach. ed his best form. The Decatur boy played far better while a member of the frosh team last year. Jimmy Moore, the hot corner guardian, is at a new position and is fielding well but is somewhat weak at the plate. Ward Watkins who replaced Treadaway when the Georgia ace was ruled ineligible, is improving but is not quite the best in the world around the keystone sack. “Lefty” Nichols, who has re ceived poor support this season, and Frank Johnson, converted soft ball twirler, are the two likely mound choices against the Tigers. Julius Bishop, who relieved Nich olg in the game with Clemson here last Saturday, may be called in for relief duty. Bishop is an Athens bov. “T'he line-up that faced the Tigers will be intact when the two teams encounter again. Maurice Carter will be the receiver. Harrison An derson, first base; Ward Watkins, Alf Anderson, and Jimmy Moore comprise the infield. Captain Cy Grant, who secured two triples in the last game, Henry Wagnon, and Jordan Ennis will be the fly chas. ing trio. Birmingham Barons Lead in Southern; Atlanta Is Winner ‘The Birmingham Barons, rated among the lowly of the Southern association by pre-season dopes ters, today had three convincing victories over ;he champion New Orleans club. The latest came yesterday when Birmingham chalked up a 5 to 1 victory with the aid of Abe White's three hit pitching. The Barons and Pelicans meet again tomorrow at New Orleans. Delighting 8,433 fans, Memphis whipped Eittle Rock 3 to 2 yester day. It was the first game of the season at Memphis. Atlanta best ted Knoxville 9 to 4 and Chattan ooga got the better of Nashville, 8 to 4. Atlanta plays again at Knoxville, Little Rock at Memphis and Chat tanooga goes to Nashville in the only games on teday’s schedule. HOOVER GETS LETTERS WASHINGTON — (#) — Law rence Richey, long associated with former President Hoover, disclosed Thursday that thousands of letters addressed to Mr. Hoover have ar rived at his office recently. The letters indicate the writers are “very keen” for Mr. Hoover and are in sympathy with his views, Richey said. In response to a question, he des. cribed the letters as “99 per cent” in favor of Mr. Hoover accepting the Republican nomination for president next year if it is offered to him. Richey has been forwarding the letters to the Hoover home in Cali- B e e WHITEHALL - STARTS DEFENGE OF TITLE WITH BISHOP GAME Athens to Play Eatonton On Latter’s Grounds Tomorrow at 3:30 The cover of the 1935 Georgia Piedmont league will be lifted to morrow afternoon on four differ ent diamonds as the eight con testants, comprising the strongest amateur loop ever to be held in this section, swing into action after the first half crown. The defending Whitehall team will perform on home grounds, facing a reported strengthened Bishop nine managed by Lee Boyd. B. H. Roberts, using practical ly the same group of classy per formers who took the first half of the loop last year and won the final “play-off, is sure to put an other strong aggregation on.:the field.’ Two new entries, the Athens CCC group and Greensboro, get their first taste of league action on the CCC camp diamond, and it is with intevest that this game is watched. Though both R. W. Clayton, Greensboro, and W. W, Thornton, Athens CCC, are expected to show teams that will give any in the league plenty of opposition, tomor row’s tilt will afford the first time for them to display their strength. Charley Orr's Ajgfens outfit eagerly awaits its opening clash in Eatonton to get away with the rest of the pack in the big first half chase. Playing in the league for the first time, KEatonton, managed by R. W. Stone, promises to have a nine “that will be a real test for any Piedmont opposition. As for Athens, a league veteran, their strength is expected to be pres ent just as much as ever, which is plenty. In the fourth batt‘e of the day, Lowe Malcolm will lead his Good Hope charges to Statham for a battle against C. C. Thomag nine. Both veterans in the loop, the two teams are expected to put up a real show and the game should be one of the best of the day. Practically all games are expect ed to begin at around 3:30 o’clock, with the admission being about 15 and 20 cents. Last year’s league was one great success, but with the eight teams about evenly balanced and the league should get away to a flying start tomor row afternoon and be close for both halves. The™ first half will continue through Saturday, June 29, with the final session beginning socon after and lasting until late in August. Paul Hodgson Shoots One Under Par to Eliminate Soule by 3 and 2 Covering the 18-hole course in one under perfect figures, Paul Hodgson yesterday ¢liminated Mur ray Soule, 3-2, in the semi-finals of the Athens Country eclub golf tournament. to win a place in the championship finals.
