Y. — () — With the men’s and women's ten nig singles championship postpon ed three days because of rain, the tennis hungry had turned today to erystal gazing into the possible lineup of America’'s “first ten” for 1935. The first five places appear to be a cut and dried issue among five players—Don Tudge of Oak land, Calif., Wilmer Allison of Aus tin, Texas, Frank Shields and Sid ney B. Wood, jr,, of New York and Bryan M. (Bitsy) Grant, jr., of At lanta. The next five will involye a scramble amonz a dozen play ers. Budge ond Gram appeer slated for the biggest nrvomuticns. They rank ninth and ten'h respetively. Budge is a popula® hunch {0 sue ceed Allison as the “h-ail ‘man)” but in order to gain that distinction the California iled-head must gain the final round of the tournament. Besides ' eing slated for a higher ranking, Grant alrealy is being considerad for the 1926 Daviz Cup wars as the result of his vietories over Frankie Parker and @ Shields in winning the Eastern .Grass courts title. For sevewal yearg Grant has been little regarded as a grass player. He's been rated more highly for his exploits on had survaces. The U. S, L. T. A, sadly in need of inter national talent, gradually is dis carding this theory. - The future of Wood and Shields, No. 2 and No. 3 on this year's list, is up to the Gods of chance. Shield's big moment will arrive when he} ‘meets Perry in one of the quarter finals. ] The committee today contempl ated ts third attempt to put on five men's fourth round maches; three women's third and one quar ter-final. Before yesrerday’'s down pour, Allison won the first two sets, 6-2, 6-0, and was trailing 2-3 in the third in his match against’ Gene Mako.

NEIL (Associated Press Sports Wriler) WHST POINT:; N. ¥, — (@) - Football ig coming out into the open this season as never before, says Lieut. Gar Davidson, cam mander-in-chief of the Army grid irons, and sad indeed will he the major league coach who hasn’t his laterals and forward passes ready for the test. “The -way Alabama passed and ran Stanford into rout in the Rose Bowl was the preview of the kind of attack yow're going to see every where all fall,” he says. ‘“l've got my men playing touch football as much as possible, pass ing the ball around all the time, getting used to handling it and plucking it “out of the air from all. angles. I'm hoping they’ll de velop to a point where they’'ll hand le laterals instinctively. We're go ing all the way on a passing at tack.” I Davidson is concentrating on aI forward-passing combination tha.t_l‘ looks spectacular. Joe Nazarro o£| Brooklyn, who didn’t fit into last vear's combination headed by Jack Buckler and Joe Stancock, is the finest passer Army hag boasted in years. On the ends are two bril liant receivers, Capt. Bill Shuler and Maurice Preston. There’s no bluff in Army’s aerial threat. ‘ A Dbigger, faster line than last vear's combination, a plentitude of backs with none of Buckler's out standing ability, gives Davidson a chance to mould a more versatile eleven. He's going in heavily for single wing-back formations, and a -running attack that moves as fre quently to the right as to the left. The schedule includes only nine %games ingtead of the customary ten: October 5, William and Mavy: 12, Gettysburg; 19, Harvard; 26, Yale at New Haven; November 2, Miss issippi State; 9, Pittsburgh at Pittsburgh; 16, Notre Dame at New York; 23, Vermont; 30, Navy at Philadelphia.

The initial skirmish will give Coaehes Hollis and Clayton Bow ers their first look at many of the boys under fire, and should also serve to reveal how many of the veterans of last season may be expected to perform: during the fast-apprecaching games. Fads were donned for the first time yesterday afternoon, as the players had their initial taste of rough work. The backs and ends were sent through a long block ing session under Hollis, while Bowers directed the guards and tackles in lunging work. Punting Yesterday Robert Hodgson and Grover Presnell were doing the punting job in yesterday’'s practice, and }both boys were getting off good kicks for so early in the year. ] Receiving the boots of Hodgson la.nd Presnell were Rudy Guest, Dave Paddock, Harold Tiller and Ed Dottery. Lee Secrest, a promising re serve tackle from last year's eleven; is out with an infected foot, but expects to be able to go into action in the next day or so. A short sketch of the ten letter men around whom this fall's team will be built follows: Marion Wilkes—One of the most outstanding centers ever to play on a Maroon team; will be a se nior this year, and made his letter as a freshman, sophomore, and junior; weighs around 162; prom ises to be one of the best linemen during the coming year; is a hard worker, and the kind of boy who never says ‘‘die.” Bobby Daniels — Another hard worker; plays guard, and made 'hls first letter last year; tips the scales at about 163; seems to be almost a certain bet for first team this fall; will be a junior in-schol astic work, and has shown great development since taking up gridiron work. Frank Crane—A boy who s expected to come through in fine form, and make Daniels a good running mate at guard; weighs around 170, and is the biggest re turning letterman; will be a senior in school work, and earned his | letter during the '34 season; if he l;utilizos all of his ability he should Ibe plenty tough on the opposi | tien. | John D. Storey—Should make l(:apable aid for Wilkes at the pivot post; a hard worKer and a real battler, weighing in at 142; was a very valuable man on thef leieven last season, and will be a] senior in school. A James Bailey—Can play either lend or halfback, and is expected to see service at both positions during the coming season; weigh ing about 138, he will be a senior in scholastics, and should make Hollis a jam-up player; is a hard | fighter all the way. ! Robert Hodgson—This big boy , tips the scales a taround 165, and lis expected to be a real star at % quarterback this fall;, a great | punter, and a brilliant passer, he | will be playing his ‘fourth and | final year on the team; he is un | doubtedly one of the best all-! 'round athletes ever to go to Ath [ens High, and is expected to come into his own as a star after three years of reserve service. Rudolph Guest-—Here is another outstanding all-round athlete, and football heads the list of the many sports he participates in; weigh ing around 150, he has more fight than most of the boys on the squad, and makes a fine halfback; in addition to his ball carrying ability, Rudy is a standout at bassing, and no slouch on block ing and defensive play; he will be a senior this year, and seems cer tain of winning his third letter in football. Dave Paddock—Wi‘h the addi tion of weight, Paddock semes headed for a great year; a fine broken-field runner, his passing shows signs of improvement; as an offensive half, he excels at traipsing around end for long gains; Paddock tips the scales at 'about 140, and will be playing his last year under, the Red and ’ White. ~ Grover Presnell — This boy should be invaluable to the team this fall; his punting and defen sive work is fine, and his ball lugging is not bad; Presnell will perform at half, and is a senior; weighing about 148, his experi ‘ence in past years should serve him to great advantage. Dick Upchurch—A certain bet for fullback; -weighs in at 150, and can hit the line like a ton of brick; he probably has more drive than any other back on the squad, and his defensive play is equal to that of the other back field men; Upchurch will *finish Athens High next June, and has already earned two letters for| THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA Rough Work Slated For Bulldogs; Spirited Drill Held This Morning Bond and Anderson Con tinue Brilliant Passing; Causey Only One Ailing By GUY TILLER. JR. This afternoon, if weather per mits, the Georgia Bulldogs will have their first encounter with the charging sled. The boys say they are really going to give the machine, the once over and show ed much enthusiasm over their first real hard work. s In the morning workout today the cloud laden sky, the cool weather, and ‘the stiff- breeze seemed to add pep and zip to the candidates as they went through their chores. The usual morning drill of punting and passing and a lenghty signal practice was helq this morning. Coach Mehre had four teams running all the plays in the sys tem. Many faults were pointej out and several minor changes effected. Mehre seems determined that every player know. his; duties thoroughly in order to make the offense more unified and more ef fective. e John Bond and: Alf Anderson continued their brilliant passing, and Andy Roddenberry showed vast improvement over last spring. The plucky Macon spphomore ran signals both at left halfback and quarterback. Paul Causey is nursing a recurrence to a knee injury and was not on the field, necessitating the former Lanier High star to take voer double duty. Charlre Treadaway still suf fers some pain when calling sig nals, due to a recent tonsil opera tion, so Mehre is giving his voice a rest, but not his legs. Yesterday afternoon the pers piring aspirants went through a lengthy ausmy scrimmage, walk ing through their plays and checking the men assigned for them to block. Preceding that was individual practice with the ends practicing going down under punts, the backs polishing up on their pass plays and learning the shift, the centers snapped the pigskin to each other, and the tackles learned the correct move ments in a high body block while the guards ‘“pulled out.” The “first team,” so adjudged due to the number of veterans inq cluded, was comprised of Harrold and Townes, ends; Shi and Har man, tackles; Moorehead and Frank Johnson, guards; Mec- Knight, center; Young, quarter back; Bond and Minot, halfbacks; and Green, fullback, during the signal drill yesterday. Troutman and Maffett, ends; ratchell and Milton, tackles; Tinsley and Hall, guards; Law, center; Roddenberry, quarterback; Anderson and Jones, halbacks; and Hartman, fullback, made up the “second team.” New Tatnall County Prison to Care for State’s “Bad Men” By JACK BATES Associated Press Staff Writer LYONS, Ga.—(f)—The new sl,- 500,000 prison in Tattnall county will be a stronghold for Georgia’s “meanest” convicts and is design ed to take care of the overflow of prisoners from the counties, This explanation of the farm was given by Judge E. L. Rainey, chairman of the State Prisgn eom mission. Rainey supervised actual laying of the cornerstone on Labor Day when hundreds of visitors and public officials were attracted here for the ceremonies. The prison, now under construc tion, is located 21 miles from Ly ons and 13 miles from Reidsville, nearest point to the farm in Tatt nall, By contract with the state the Public Works Administration in Washington allotted $1,300,000 for construction and equipment of the buildings and $200,000 for purchase of the prison site, around 1,000 acres of which are in the name of the federal government, In addition the state purchased 7.000 acres for the farm at a cost of approximately $119,000. Rainey said the new state farr will bring about a “slight reformae tion” of Georgia's prison system, since it will leave buidings and equipment at Milledgeville, now the state’'s penitentiary, to thelr original purpose. « “The Miliedgeville farm,” Rainey said, “was established solely for the care of women, youths, the tu bercular, the sick, the maimed and the diseased patienta. “But the system became so con gested throughout the state that itl became necessary to transfer the worst ecriminals out of the coun-‘ ties and house them at’ Milledge" ville. The new prison will be the stronghold of Georgia's meanest' criminas and will take care of the criminals and will take care of the the counties.” ; “What will happen to the deathl chamber at Milledgeville?” | “Well, Milledgevilie is best 10-| cated geographically for that,”| Rainey continued, “although a] death chamber will be installed at Reidsville.

LOUIS, GIANTS IND GBS ALL WIN N NATIONAL |FAGUE {American League Program . Washed Out Yesterday I By Heavy Rains BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR. l (Associated Press Sports Writer) [ One of the season’s best bits of managerial master-minding appar ently was Charley Grimm’s con version of Augie Galan from an irregular infielder with the Cubs Yo a regular toiler in the outer! pastures. ‘ Galan proved his worth yesterday when the Cubs 'rolled over the Phillies 8 to 2 to keep their place. 2+l-2 games behind the league- | leading Cardinals and a half back | of the second-place Giants. Galani drove in six runs, drawing a walk | with the bases loaded in, the fourth | and clouting two home runs. His| second homer came with the bases loaded in the eighth and broke up the ball game. I The Cards maintained their lead by staging a four-run rally in the | eighth to beat the cellar-dwelling! Braves 6 to 3. A close game in| which Wally - Berger put Boston | ahead in the first half of the eighth | with his 30th homer of the season,! suddenly fell apart when Frank‘; Frisch started the eighth with a| single off Ed Brandt, Jim Collins doubled him home and Ben Cent-! well, who followed, was pounded | for three more hits. i Jess “Pop” Haines, trylng for his| 200th major league vietory, which: has eluded him since July 21, wentl out just too soon to get credit for! the victory, which went to Bill[ ‘Walker.
