PAGE FOUR SP()TLIGHTIN G \ SPORTS - POTENTIALLY THE BEST %fiu Potentially, the University of @;f“*()eorgili has the greatest track ath. Ef‘?it\te in the south today, and prob g;.:Lal»l_\' the ‘best who every performed ~ belowthe Mason-Dixon line. %{ Forrest - “Spec” Townes, of ~ Augusta, Ga, is the boy who is ? going’ to make the southland " forget "the great Percy Beard, ? the notorious Edd Hamm, the %c nationally known Jack Torran ce, and numerous others who Y . have set records on the track 7 while .« representing southern Y colleges. ? No less authority than Weems ‘é Baskin, Georgia coach, says Townes bis farther advanced in the art of g._high hurdling, as a sophomore, than ‘.‘Perfl Beard was when he was a & Junior’at Auburn. Other track ex %: perts Wwho have seen this boy per " form wonder at his ability. % Townes runs the high and low b hurdles for Georgia, high jumps g and last Saturday ran the 100 . yard dash for the first time in . his life. He streaked the cen ~ tury in exactly 9.9 seconds. * But high, hurdling is his spec " jalty. “ In two races here he has @j‘{hmken two long standing Georgia _ records, and on both occasions the ;%i‘”!veather conditions were very un ~ favorable, Townes run the hurdles ;f?-jagflinst Presbyterian college in 15.2 ;;:g;:.‘{fiueoonds.fm a track that had ab ~ sorbed about 3 inches of water in @}iilwn days previous to the meet, ~ The next Saturday he ran the ~ hurdles in 16.1 seconds, with a strong wind blowing across the ~ track, and the thermometor ~ down to about 45 degrees. ~ Note:; This column is heing writ '%én before the meet vesterday with § Auburp, o his time in that rac _ cannot be included, * Like all great hurdlers, “Spec” " never attempted to run them until : came to college. Long and 5 angy, and posssssing a lot of . speed, he immediately attracted " Coach Baskin's attention and im rf‘i to the Georgia tutor very ~ much. . Bagkin, himsel!, was one of i the ‘best high hurdlers in the «;f"'”mtfi,' and made his living for ~ a few years after graduating ~ from Auburn by captilizing on ~ his ability to top the timbers. :;;,lt; wasn't easy for Townes to be ;“_me the great hurdier he is, and it took hard work, both on the part ”': ' Coach Baskin and the Augustan, ‘g E%A‘qcmm)lish what he had done. B a freshman, Townes would ar k ve at;the track a lang time before ~any other candidates for the var ~'or-‘tteshman team, and he re £ mained-there until after all others ‘had gone. ~ For the first month it was ~ very, very hard for the boy, and ~he was continuously getting ~ epills, but he kept trying and he began to improve steadily. At the end of his freshman year * he was good enough to win the ; A. U. title in Atlanta. ww’ha is the most valued man B LT on Gebrgia’'s team, and if he is _able to duplicate the feat through gut the season that he did against Furman, Georgia should have the * Vest track team in the south. Town @& accounted for 19 points;, winning fifst place in the high and low ! beh.‘ the 100 yard dash and tie dng for first in the high jump. WE WONDER = Right now every baseball fan in %fi;’thfi state is singing praises for the ~ Atlanta Crackers, who started the Southern league season off in great v _tm. What this department would like to know, is what will these " same fans be singing in August. b For the past four years the ~ Crackers have had the best . team since 19256 — at the first of the gsason. But before the e ¢lmpaiqn was haif over the ¢ champions had fizzled and ~ generally were sitting on the ~ bottom. We hope nothing like © this will happen to the Atlanta _ team this year. , - ® Frankly, we don't believe the “Crackess have the best team in the . deague,~but we certainly do hope { 80. The<Atlanta owners have spent money every year—in fact they @re the only ones who have parted | With any dollars in the league. They ; deserve a winner, and maybe this _is the vear. . If tAtlanta should win ths . Southern league pennant this _ year, it would be beneficial to " every other club in the loop. It .n&% bhas fever been argued that At hntqsfhas the best drawing po ~« wer Of any other team.

Boys To Participate in Long Event Athens' first six day bike race pitting the Chi Phi fraternity against the 8. A, E. fraternity, will begin this afternoon at 3:00 o'clock in front of the Athens Sport ing Goods store. Night and day, regardless of the weather, the race will continue un til next Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock, with each fraternity hav ing posted SIOO forfeit money to guarantee that they will finish the race, regardless of what happens. Each time a rider finishes a lap he mus: sigp his name on a book to be kept 24 hours at the Phi Phi house and 24 hours at the S, A, E. house. It has been decided that if either one fails to complete the race, the money will be given to charity. After starting in front of the Sporting Goods Store, the race will continue on oue Prince aveénue, up Hill and down Milledge to Lump kin. The racers will then preceed down Lumpkin back to town, and start the same course over again. The Banner-Herald was inform ed by the two frats last night that th'e paving of Lumpkin would make no difference, as only a small stretch would be torn ap by the workers and that at that stretch the bike riders would take to the sidewalk. One fraternity pointed out that the work en Lumpkin street would be in favor of the race as the traffic on that street would be cut down almost to nothing and that the teams would have no automo biles to combat. And getting down to the prize of the race, the losing group will set the winners up to a big ban quet at the Georgian Hotel. There has been one change in just how long each man can ride. At first it was decided to let ev ery rider go for an hour, but last night it was announced that the rule had been changed and that each participant can ride just as many ‘hours at a time as he wish es. The participants must ride one ‘hour at least, though. The public is invited to see the grand start this afternoon, and much interest will be shown, Philly Slugger In Great Shape ’ k. fi e % 7 % fifif&w : :7 o B 2 :: g i i i Lo Lk oo ; e, D % .f;.v S 2i N P S K ;& - o e ; A s Al ki i, B .

S Hair-pulling, Kicking, scratching, biting and slapping galore are ex pected to feature the main attrac tion between Misses Billie Devette and Flora Latour. These two females should give women wrestling a first-class place among the Athens boxing and grap pling fans and the two members of the fairer sex are expected to stage a fine show, In another one of the bone bending contests, Sgt. Harry Nix on, a tough old army man, will take on the famous Mohammed Ali the Arabian champ. So confident are both of the participants of victory, that this match will be staged on a winner take-all basis, and this bount pro mises to be one of the best ever put on in the local arena. Ali has yet to lose a match here, and is not intending to do so Wed nesday, and will go into the match a slight favorite. He will put o6ut all that he has in an effart to pin the broad shoulders of Nixon to the mat. . 3 Unlike his foe, Nixon has never fought here before, but is very po pular in Atlanta and other southern wrestling circles, where he has built up a great reputation, In the first match of the evening, Bull Schmidt and Totem Pole An derson will mix it up and should put on another great exhibition. On last week’s card, Schmidt was winner via a foul while Anderson’s first appearance here was spoiled when Ali took his measure. Anderson, who hails from the frozen north, is, however, a much better performer than he looked to be last week and will give Atlanta's Schmidt a real tussle. The card will start at 8:15 o'clock and all ladies’ accompanied by a paid 40 cent ticket, will be admitted free, Rubber Spiked Shoe For Softball Players Sold at Rosenthal’s Rosenthal’s Shoe store has some thing new in the shoe line.

WILLIAMS Coach Wilbur Hutsell and his Auburn track. team has made an other successful invasion of Ath ens. y The Plainsmen, although scor ing only six first places to Geor zia's eight, took enough seconds and thirds to score T 0 points against the Bulldogs here Satur day, and thereby walked off with the meet, 70 to 56. It was the elev enth win Auburn has scored in 14 years of competition with Geor gia. The other three ended in ties. It was a close affair, with the teams deadlocked at 54-54 with two events to be finished, but Auburn placed first and second in each, while Georgia managed to get third in both. The events were the broad jump and the 880- yard run. The track was not in very good condition, due to a rain early in the day, but some very good times were set. The feature of the entire meet was the 100-yard dash, won by Wright, of Auburn. There were six men entered in the meet, and they were grouped so clogely it was nearly impossible to judge the race. 3 Shorter Rankin, converted 880 star, won the mile race for Geor gia., with the fine time-of 4 min utes and 31 seconds, beating the Southeastern conferencg cham pion, Pihl, of Auburn, by about 30 vards. Evan Major defeated the same man in the two mile run, chalking up a time of 10 minutes, 21.1 seconds. > “Spec” Townes, Georgia's high scorer with 14 points, ran the 220- vard low hurdles in 25.5 seconds, just 2.1 seconds above the South eastern record. In the opinion of Percy Beard, world champion hurdler, who saw the meet, Townes is one of the best pros pects in the world. g Auburn and Georgia have met | on the: track every year since 1921, { and Auburn has won 11 meets.
