day aftermoon, when it embarked
upon the flight over the sea, the
most hazardous part of the jour
ney. \
A commission was appointed to
go to Leningrad and inspect the
plane when it Janded in an effort
to determine the cause of the
trouble.
Piloting .the mane, the Soviet
built “UR. 8. 8. 25" was Sig
mund Levanecsky, Russian aerial
hero. He was accompanied in the
one-motored craft by Co-Pilot
George Baidukeff and Navigator
Victor Liychencko.
The failure of the flight caused
bitter disappointment _.here, but
the general reaction was a belief
Levaneffsky was wise in turning
back. Z 3 ’
A 1,600-mile stretch remained
between the fliers and the North
Pole when they turned back.
They would have had to cover
1,050 miles from the pole to reach
Prince Patriek Island, the first
land they “would have seen on the
North American continent.

Legion Team Scheduled To
. Battle Newnan Wednesday
Game Will Start at 3:30
On Sanford Field: No
. Admission Charge
| The Athens American Legion
Ibaseban team will engage a team
‘from Newnan here Wednesday
afternoon on Sanford ifield at 3:30.
"l‘he Newnan team, although com
{‘bosed of boys of L.eague age, is
| not the team that represented that
| town in the state tournament.
I Coach W. A. Hodgson, of the
| local team, made arrangements
)fur the game with Newnan with
Luke Forrest, recently. Mr. For
irest saw the Athens team play
iLaGrange in the tournament, and
. Was impressed with the ability of
!the local aggregation. He began
Inegotiat!ons with Coach Hodgson
| immediately to arrange the game.
Although‘beaten by a big score
in the first game of the tourney
at Rome, the Athens team drew
much praise from officials, and
‘fans, and with a little more luck
might have won the first game.
Coach Hodgsun _ announced he
wopld start the same team against
lthe Newnan aggregation as he
' did in the state tournament. The
announcement means that Teddy
Lundy, young . fast ball _ hurler,
‘will be on the mound for Athens,
with Jim Booth behind the plate.
Lundy is one of the finest
tyou'ng prospects in the state, and
already several professional scouts
lhave their eyes focused on him.
In fact, it would not be surpris
ing if one of them did not show
sup for the game Wednesday.
Although still young, Lundy has
shown. signs of blossoming into a
real star within .the next few
years, and with a little experi
}\ence he will be ready for pro ball
in another two years. Right now,
‘he- is considering entering a uni
versity next fall, probably Ogle
thorpe. St
“At first base on the Athens
‘team . will be Roland Condon;
with Ralph Roberts on second;
iCyril Hammond, short, and Lamar
Bryant, third base. In the out
field will be “Peanut” Trousdale,
'Ed Cunningham, and either John
'D. Storey or Hubert Edwards.
~ All members of the Legion
squad are urged to attend prac
tice Monday afternoon about 3
o'clock on Sanford field. Practice
~will be held Monday and Tuesday,
in order to get the boys’ batting
eyes, and to get the ‘“feel” of the
ball again. It has been almost two
- weeks since most of the boys
have played a game of baseball.,
- In event the game #¥s rained out,
it will be played on the next
day, probably. 2
There will be no admission
price to the game, and the publie
.is cordially invited to atiend,

TO ENTER TOURNEY
(Continued from page four.)
ond only to the big tourney.
It is hoped that <“all local golf
ers will play their qualifying
round before Wednesday morning
to give visiters the use of the
course. Charles E. Martin, who is
handling publicity for the tourney,
said Saturday :hat if all local
‘golfers who are expecting to enter
the meet, would qualify before
Wednesday, it would be of great
aid to the officials.
Invitations have been sent to
approximately 75 outstanding am
ateur golfers in the state, and
about 60 of them will accept the
invitations. Bjll Zimmerman, youth
ful Augusta sharp-shooter, who
won the state crown at Rome a
few weeks ago, is expected to be
one of those entered.
Atlanta will have several golf
ers in the tournament, and Mon
roe, Covington, Commerce, Hart
well, Gainesville, Winder, and oth
er cities in this section will prob
ably send large delegations:
Just who is the pre-tourney fa
vorite cannot be determined as
yvet, because it is not known just
who will enter. However, if Zim
merman does enter, he will be a
heavy faworite to capture the
meet.

Local Star Also Hopes to
Enter Mect Held in
South Carolina
Walter Sams, jr., ace of the
Athens Gun club, plans to enter
two outstanding skeet meets and
one championshin trap shooting
affair in the near future, accord
ing to a statement made by the
star gunman yesterday afternoon.
Although it is still somewhat
doubtful, Sams hopes to enter the
South Carolina +State champion
ship in Spartanburg next week
end.
The biggest snoots, however,
will take place later in the month
when the young gun ace goes to
Ohio to participate in two of the
country’'s largest shoots. He has
already registered and it is cer
tain that he will go to these two.
The first will be the Grand Am
erican Trap Handicap champion
ship near Dayton, August 19
through the 23rd, while from there
Sams will go to the National
Skeet Championship in Cleveland,
which will last from the 2bth
through the 31st.
The Grand American Trap
shoot will attract gunmen from
all over the world, and is the
biggest thing held as far as trap
shooting is concerned.
Although Sams’ only trap shoot
ing has been done in big meets
in Atlanta—there being no trap
equipment here—he stands a good
chance of winning as he will be in
Class “C.” There are six groups
in this affair, going from “AA’"}
down to “E,”” and around 800
shooters are expected to take
part in the meet. §
There will be unusually large
prizes awarded to the winners,
including cash and trophies.
The skeet championships in
Cleveland will also attract many
outstanding stars, and Sams is
given a good chance to place in
this affair also.
The local shooter was recently
elected vice-president of the Sou
thern Skeet ShootTrTg association,
which covers the nine southern |
states, at a big meeting a.nd4
shoot in Birmingham.
EXTRA SESSION OF
LEGISLATURE ASKED
(Conimucd From Page One)
eroy of the Fulton county superior
court Saturday threw out on
grounds that the petitioners had
not shown an actual interest in
the issues. He also sustained the
state's demurrer which contended
the case was actually a suit
against the state, which had not
consented to the suit.
Almand said the governor can't
levy an ‘“ad valorem property"
tax and collect it without an ap
propriation bill. The general as
sembly, he said, must anticipate
the cost of running the state
government during 1936 and 1937
in an act fixing the amount of
money to be paid to the state
agencies for operation during that
period.
Citing from the 1933 Georgia
code, Almand said the ad valorem
must bhe “sufficient to raise a net
amount of SIOO,OOO as a sinking
fund to pay off” valid outstanding
bonds of the state as they fall
due. Under the constitution, he
-said, the governor may in addi
tion assess an additional levy on
property “as may be necessary to
meet the operation of the general
assembly of Georgia and the state
gevernment for each successive
vear.”
He said that if the legislature
fails to enact a general appropria
tion bill, the counties cannot levy
and collect a property tax, be
cause “the law says ad valorem
taxes assessed and collected by
local authorities must be based
on a percentage of the rate levied
by the state to pay governmental
cost expenses.”

Shipman Suggests
- - »
Campaign to Bring
-
Tourists to Area
An active campaign, designed to
bring motor tourists into this com»
munity and immediately adjacent
territory by publicizing the loeal
advantages and attractions was
recommended by W. F. Shipman,
‘executive vice president of the
East Georgia Motor club which
ig affiliated with the AAA.
i Mr. Shipman declared that ex
‘perien(se of the AAA over a long
period of years proves that the
states and cities that are imost
guccessful in attracting tourist
trade make a constant business of
it; those communities that do not
concentrate on such a program in
evitably lose out because of the
intense competition from existing
tourist-attraction centers and be
lcause of the new areas constantly
being opened up. He continued:
~ “There is every reason why our
local community should do every
thing in its power to advertise ou
principal attractions — our omnt
'standing points of historical intfer
est and our more notable spots of
scenic beauty and grandeur. Of
great importance in stimulating
tourist trade is the provision of
play and recreation facilities, parks,
golf courses, tennis courts, swims
ming pools and so on.
~ “It should be borne in mind that
with the great mobility afforded
the tourist by hig automobile, he
will visit and remain only at those
places which meet his entire ap
proval. At the least’ dissatisfao
tion, the motorist wili get into his
car and go in search of another
place more to his liking.
“Therefore, efforts should be di
rected not only towards attracting
the tourists but also toward mak
ing his stay entirely pleasant and
enjoyable. Experience has proved
that expenditure of time and ener<
gy in this direction is more than
repaid by the results that are ob
tained.”
