The Aral game la agalnat her old. time rival, Birmingham, winner of the HOT championship. Also the Atlanta and Birmingham team* will play one day before sny other teams open up. On April 0 the Atlanta and Birmingham teams will be the etar performers In Birmingham's Brat pennant-raising. Except for allowing Atlanta and Bir mingham to crack open the aaaaon one day In advance the Southern League mogule did not do much which waa notable at their meeting at the Pied mont hotel Friday afternoon and night and In their special session which be gan shortly after midnight and lasted until ao late that all count waa tost. SCHEDULE ADOPTEDI SUREI Of course the schedule as proposed was adopted. The correct schedule wee the one which appeared In The Geor gian Thursday afternoon. Evan the "apeehul. extry" game of July 9, be- itwetn Atlanta end Birmingham, Is not a scheduled affair. The league simply gave the two cluba permission to traita- l»r ... same for August I, I or T to April I. But this change la not itaety to appear on the official schedules. Thla one-day-ln-advance arrange ment was only arcompUabad after a good-natured but strenuous squabble which lasted from 4:10 until nearly 7 o'clock. According to the proposed schedule Birmingham waa to open In Nashville. Thla arrangement waa a "staggerer" for Birmingham. The fans there counted on having the team open the aaaaon at hom They had already begun i plans for a great flag-raising and poet-mortem celebration of tha pennant winning. They wanted to start off tha aeaaon with as big a rush as they finished It: and they did not feel that they could do It If the team played soma gntaa on tha road before the Blag Town debut. .All this ana more President Baugh told, with tears In hie eocletes had blown a lot of money In a new team and a new park at Nash ville. In consequence they felt that they must open at home and get a fancy •tart In tha race for the pennant. Haw Problem . Was Solved. President Dickinson finally found the way out of what looked like an end- leas discussion by offering to give up the privilege of playing the first game of tha season on tha horns grounds ami to send the Crackers to Birmingham for ona game. This arheme waa welcomed by the moguls and after aonu mors talk it went through. Thla meana that the Atlanta team will go to Birmingham April I, take part In the opening day featlvltlea April » at Birmingham and then blow bark to Atlanta for the real opening with Montgomery April 10. at which time the other clubs In the league will open up. DOINGS IN BRIEF. In detail and In brtqf the other atunta pulled off by the moguls ware Aaaurancea of President Chambers of Montgomery that E. P.

Voted to continue the advertisements In The Sporting Newa and The Sport ing Life. Judge Kavanaugh announced that the order for tickets had been placed with a New Orleana firm. The allowance to the president for clerical work waa Increased from (100 to tl.000. Thla allowance la practically a salary for Clark Miller, who has been secretary to the president since Judge Kavanaugh first accepted that office. Binntngham representatives lost in their effort to force all teams to play two games July 4. Ferd Kuhn announced that Nashville waa going to win the pennant (loud applause).

The mogule took In the new park and other point* of Interest title morn ing. The entire delegation vrent out to the hill ellmb Friday afternoon and after watching the races for a while re turned to Atlanta and took up business at th* meeting which waa called at 4:10.

During the banquet Ferd Kulm, th* Nashville delegate, waa forced to leave to take th* night train home.

LEAGUE TRANSACTS BUSINESS AT — MIDNIGHT EXECUTIVE SESSION The greeaad-llghtnlng speed of Ed Inman's Stearns and the star perform- ence of Lowry Arnold In winning two cups were th* features of the hill climb on the Hapevllle road Friday afternoon. The other winners were C. H. Johnson and James Todd. The event waa-a success and waa run off with surprising smoothness. To the spectators It wns more or leaa of a disappointment, because they did not know- exactly what tn expect, but wanted something blood-curdling. To the contestants, however, the (Went waa an unqualified success and aa there tvas no admlaslon charged and nobody Invited to be there, the satisfying of the contestants was the chief thing. The expected trouble with the timing apparatus eventuated and In conse quence the first couple of events had to be run over with a timer In each car. In this way the time In all events waa secured accurately. The beat of order waa preserved on the course by Chief Turner, of the county police, and hla assistants. Lieu tenant Poole, J. T. Davis, D. 8. A. Davis, Greer, Durant, Hnthcock and Buntyn. A surprisingly large number of spec tators were on hand and ns usual they flowed down pnto the track nnd tried to get killed, but all were unsucceaaful In thla attempt. time made by the Sterna waa phenomenally good. Driven by John Toole, probably the foremost race driver In the South, It went the dis tance at top speed nnd the stop watches registered 1:04 1-5 on the climb. The next beat time was made by D. C.

AFTER HARD FOUGHT BOUT YORK AND BURNS DRAW At an executive session which be gan fifteen minutes after midnight Bat. urday morning In a banquet room tn the Piedmont and Which tasted well Into th* morning th* Southern League voted to glv* tha LUtle Rock and Shreveport cluba the right to transfer one game of certln pair* of games scheduled aa double headers In those two elites to other point* The moguls •la otook up th* question of posses and agreed on certain IrOn-clad regula tions to govern the rapidly growing paaa evil. The voting of th* privilege of trans ferring games from Bhreveport and Little Rock want through only after an afternoon, evening and part of a night's fighting on the part of the At lanta and Birmingham delegations. Both of these cltle* have been, are now and probably will be always un alterably oppoaed to allowing any tranaftr of game*. They hold that auch transfer* give an undue advantage to the stronger cities over the weak and glv* an eapactal advantage to auch cities aa New Orleans and Memphis, which, nn account nr playing Sunday ball, get the advantage of a majority of th* tranaferred garnet. But the two clubs were outvoted by the Western clubs, reinforced by [not NEm,WfviEws Montgomery and Nashville. President rf< - * ipoi Mike Finn representing Little Rock put up the plea that their towns draw R unless their team* were wall up i race and claimed that a few transfer* would not hurt anyone and w«uw bswof malasMl hfite to -them-. Up to the time of th* arrival of th* Shreveport delgatton th# project waa blocked, but Captain Crawford gave the "transfer crowd” a majority and put throguh the scheme. If the town* In question are draw ing wall when tha achadulad double- headers are due they may be played. may be transferred. Atlanta will titled to on* transferred game from Little Rock and one from Shreveport. Cock Fighting and Keno Popular at New Orleans By PERCY H. WHITING. The effort of Coach-IIeinman to atraighten out the prep, school tangle is a commendable one. He has undertaken a her culean task, but he is a man who can accomplish such tasks, and we wish him well. Kor some reason prep, school athletics have been in a trifle more demoralized condition in Georgia than elsewhere in the South.

If college Kcheriules go wrung and college tennifi become corrupted by professionalism you can blame the college men—though the suspicion hits flashed through our minds more than once that college faculties openly connived with much of the. corruption which has so often disgraced col lege athletics of tne country, In prep, schools the blame for the unsavory and-unsatisfac tory condition of thing* is duo primarily to the las athletic morals of the principals and the faculties of the ncIiooIs. They have winked at the introduction of professionals on the teams. They have founded “athletic scholarships.” They have allowed their teams to cancel games which the managers of the teams had previously promised to play. And the blame is with then). If the tangle can he straightened out it will do much for prep, school athletics in (ieorgiu. and—ns always follows—much for college athletics. Until the (Georgia colleges have well organized preparatory school teams to draw their material from they will always be at a terrible handicap when competing with teams like those of Ten nessee which have their athletes turned over to them, by the prep, schools, ready made and in condition to go outo the fields and play- winning baseball and football. •IP'S of 111* |»rll* rlne.
