By PERCY H. WHITING.
A genuine basket ball revival aeema to be In progress In the South
this winter.
Since the game waa llrat Introduced It baa been played steadily, but
for several seasons past there has been no great enthusiasm about tho
game.
This year there are more good teama than usual, and they are play
ing harder and longer schedules.
The Atlanta Athletic Club has a really good team this year, and
one that should hold Its own anywhere and any time. It Is made up of
good, big, fast men, who know the game, and It has developed good sig
nals and brainy team play. It will certainly tpake the Birmingham Ath
letic Club team go some In the game Saturday night.
Sport enthusiasts are glad to see basket ball prosper. It la one of the
very best of the Indoor games. It develops muscles, wind and endurance
In the players and teaches many valuable qualities like self-restraint, good
losing abtljty and courage.
If retribution followed as swiftly and a| savagely In very case of
"loose talking" as It did In the now historic one of Otla Stockdale, there
would be a lot leas of It done.
It Is not a very serious crime, tho, and Southern League fans will be
rather pleased when the Southern League ceases to'make of Otla an
"awful example," and lets him back Into good standing.
Stockdale was guilty only of making a fool of himself. His penalty
for the act was sevore and he Is not likely to make the same mistake
again. He has also furnished a healthy lesson for a lot of loose baseball
talkers who will put a bridle on their tongues In consequence and drive
them under double wraps.
An effort la being made to have the football rulea committee further
popularise the forward pass by lessening the penalties for failure to com
plete the play.
Certainly if the play la a good one It ought not to lie quite so hard to
pull off as It Is now, and the penalties for failure to work It successfully
ought not to be quite so severe.
v Coach Morris HaJllday, a member of the football advisory committee
at Cornell, says this on the subject:

PLENTY OF HORSES FOR
SAVANNAH RACE MEETING
NEW YORK, Die. 15.—Judging from
tne results achieved by the promoters
of the coming race meet at Savannah,
Ga., In the preliminary work that meet
ing will more than surprise the turfites.
Frank J. Bryan, who will act as preeld.
Ing Judge, Is attending to the details.
Two officials were appointed yester
day. Herman Conklin, who has acted
as clerk of scales on the Metropolitan
tracks, wilt fill that position at Savan
nah. Elmer Wilson will handle the
starting flag. Wilson has assisted Mara
Cassidy In starting for several years
and Is qualified for tbe place.
The plan of the managers of the
course Is to conduct a thirty rtayi'
meeting start on December 25 and If
everything works along smoothly to
lengthen the schedule. At present
eighty-four horses are stabled at the
tracks.. Most of them performed at the
recent Ill-fated New Orleans meet. In
addition to this lot, quite a number of
Baltimore horsemen will send down
runners. Jimmy McLaughlin will ehlp
a string of ten from Banning, and Jules
Carson will take eleven.

AMU S E M E N TS
GEORGIA HAS FAIR PROSPECTS
FOR BASEBALL TEAM IN ’09
FULL ACCOUNT OF DOINGS AND UNDOINGS
AT RECENT ANNUAL MEETING OF S. I. A. A,
ATHENS, Ga„ Dee. 16,—Proepects
for the coming baseball season at the
University of Georgia am being dis
cussed and comparisons made with last
leason's record.
It Is hardly likely that tha 1905 per
formance will be repeated—to again
hold the title of "Champions of the R L
A. A.” Is more than Georgia supporters
are hoping for.
Coach Branch Bocoek le again head
coach and a better roan has never be
fore had charge of Georgia. He has
made an enviable record here and with
him ht the helm everybody feels safe. It
Is not yet known who will be assistant
coach; Last season It was Hammond
Johnson, of Virginia. He Is now prac
ticing law In Norfolk and It would be a
difficult task to pull him down here
again. That It what Is being hoped
for hpwever.
Captain Derrick was elected last
spring to lead the team this year. He
performs all round second bees and
has more than a look-in on the all-
Southern Job this year. With the stick,
too, he la nifty, so that the red and
black.le well fixed In the matter of a
leader.
Dan Redfearn,,the pitcher's brother.
Is manager and nas promised a good
schedule. He le now arranging date*.
but owing to constant changes nothing
has yet been deflnltely announced.
Georgia loses eight players this year.
They are Harman attd Redfenrn. pitch,
era; Captain Martin, ahoTtetop; Graves,
third base: Colby, catcher; Wataon,
Barnett and Foley, outfielders. This
Includes most of the stars of last sea-
Sbn, the main support of the tram.
Those left are Hodgson, first base;
Derrick, second base; Mont wick, pitch
er; Lucas and Newsome, catchers; Cobb
and Oglesby, outflslders. There Is soma
mighty good material left from last
year, which ought to develop, and of
course there will be the new men to
draw on.
Georgia Is short on pitchers thru the
loss of Harman, Redfearn and Folsy.
"Big Boy" Bostwlck Is the only twlrler
left. By the time the season opens,
however. It Is expected that this de
ficiency will be remedied.
Behind the bat Lucas remains as a
worthy snnessor to Colby and New-
some also ll here to back him up.
In the Infleld Hoflgion and Derrick
are left. Vacancies at third base and
shortstop must be filled. In the outfield
are Cobb and Uglesby..
This seems a good year for new men
to earn their 9s, as a large number of
vacancies are to be filled. There le a
good nucleus to start on, howa\er.
Tom Longboat Is Favored
To Defeat Italian Runner
NEW YORK, Dee. 16.—Torn Long
boat. the great Indian distance runner,
haa been made a five to four favorite
oveg Dorando, the Italian, who con
quered Johnny Hayes In the re-runnlng
ot tbe English Marathon a few weeks
ago. In the second running of that
riaselc over the Madison Square track
tonight.
When the starting gun le fired It le
likely that both men will be barked for
enormous amounts. Canadians arriving
from the home of Longboat are taking
up every cent they can secure.
The backer* of both men may rest
assured that they will get a grand run
•for the wagers, for both are train*! to
tile minute, and If ever there qras a .rut
run race the one tonight should be It.
Both are confident—eo confident In feet,
that they have Instructed their reprs-

sontatlves and friends to bet down for
them.
Both men have outlined the plan of
buttle and each Is confident that hfs Is
the best. Ixtngboat says that he will
set such a fast pace at the very outset
thst Dorando will never be able to over
come the lead he will (el tn the first ten
miles. Dorando laughs at this and says
he will take the lead at the very start
and keep It throughout the twenty-elx
miles—the same aa he did In the race
with Hayes.
Both men quit active training yester
day and announced that they would
spend today resting. Longboat says
that there will be no chance of hie feet
going bark on him this time, as his
tialner. Tom Eck, has prepared hit
pedals with a sea salt preparation until
they are now as hard as steel.

Vice President W. M. Rlgg*. of the

Professor Riggs' report are'worth the at
tention of the athletic world and are
here given: *
Tbe executive committee met on Friday
morning, and. In addition to considering rou
tine business, discussed at length the situa
tion at Louisiana Htate I’nlveralty. This
matter twas brought before the committee
by the Auburn delegation, who cl
Hmlth. of the l«ottlaJaua Htate 1’imvrMi/.

S rttcfe** The committee decided that Au-
urn's protest waa not well founded, and
that tbe rnllng of District Vice Preside

eligible. However, on Account of the wide
spread mniora which redlected upon tho eli
gibility of the Ixuilslaua Htate University
team. President Royd, of tbe leOulsiana
Htate University, requested that a commit
tee he appointed to Investigate fully the eli
gibility of each snd every meml»er of the
team of his university. Tbs executive com
mlttee appointed Chancellor II. L. Wlgglua,
of Hewanee. Tenn.: Hr.* Charles Darn well,
of tbe University of Alalia ins. and Professor
B. M. Walker, of the Mississippi Agricultu
ral and Mechanical College, to act: on the
Investigating committee. This committee la
empowered to use every means to get nt
the truth, and Is to report to tbe executive
committee at tbe earliest possible date.
Tbe convention assembled on 8atnrdsy
morning at 10 o'clock, with fifteen colleges
represented by one or moro delegates. The
opening hour of the convention was de
voted to tbe reading of the minutes and
other routlue business. The application of
tbe Rottth Carolina Military Academy for
‘ elation was presented
Clem eon. and tucm-
I ■ _ unanimous vote. At
their request, the Cordon Institute was al
lowed to retire from the association, but a
similar request from the University of Nash
ville was refused until ihat Institution
should pay Its dues. January 1 was assign
ed aa a limit for receiving these dues,
after which, If all arrram are not settled.
I’nlveralty of Nashville will be dropped
from the roll of the Southern Intercolle
giate Athletic Association. Such . action
would be equivalent to a blacklist, as no
member of the aseoclntlon could meet the
teams of the University of Nashville until
that Institution Is restored to good stand'***
The tono of the convention seemed exc
Ingly conservative, the majority figbtlnL —
retain the conetltiitJon In It* present shape
without radical change. The principal con*
teat centered around the al>olltlon of section
10 of article 9, the now celebrated "one
year" or. 14 Carnegie nnlt rule," for football
players. Tech advoacted the abolition of
this rule, but got very little support, and
In the end their proposition was voted down
by a large majority. A alight change In
the wording of section 10, article 9, was
made, as follows:
"tat No football player shall engage In in
tercollegiate athletics unless be has been In
attendance for one scholastic year: provided,
however, this rule shall uot exclude a stu
dent who offer* 14 Carnegie unit*.
"(b). A student who has been In attendance
at any college may not offer 14 Carnegie
units for entrance iq lieu of tbs one-year
resident** rule.'* »
Tbe shove revision embodies two Impor
tant changes. (1) Tbe provision that allowa
attendance during nay preceding session,
not necessarily the preceding one to count
for eligibility, and €2) does not give tbe mi
lage of the 14-sinlt rale to students who
e from other colleges, whether or pot
they hare participated In Intercollegiate
athletics.
tbe L.
lows:
l were as fob
The addition of the following prefix to
seel lot) 10. article f: **A boy who before en
tering college' plays on a baseball team
which Is not a meinlier of a longue and re
ceives therefor a money-consideration, may
not lie permanently disqualified on the
ground of professionalism. All such case*
umy, however. Ih» submitted to the exeeu-
tlve committee of tbe H. I. A. A. In regular
scsalon, who shall tie vested wljb the au
thority to disqualify for a definite or on In
definite period, ns the circumstances of the
case may warrant."
This Is an exceedingly Important addition
tQ tbe conatltutlon, In that It gives to the
executive committee the power to extend
leniency to ' 4
of tbe laws «« «ur I9NIHRI9H! ».»-*, uod».
entering college, violated the technical pro
visions aa regnrds professionalism, it was
distinctly provided that no petitions for
leniency shall 4>e considered by letter, but
once n year, at tbe time of tho annual con
vention, the executive committee will sit to
receive and consider such petition*. The
purpose of this ehsnge In the law Is not to
lu uny way lower the gates, so far as in
tentional violations of the professional rule
Is concerned, but to mitigate any exception
ally deserving cases the extreme penalty of
permanent disqualification.
Another change In the summer baseball
rule was to somewhat broaden the defini
tion of.the "home team" to Inclnde the
team of auy town or community In a man'a
tiome county. Heretofore a student, during
hts vacation, wna allowed to nlay only with
tbe tswn In which he lived, nod In some
rases this bss been found to work an un
necessary and unexpected hardship, deprtv-
ng the Uiy of any opportunity to nlay <t
all during the summer. Of course, the pro
vision against receiving any compensation
above expenses while playing on sorb a
team still hold#. • , .
A slight change wan made In the rales to
clear up n misunderstanding which has been
prevalent as regards what constituted a
summer Itasetmll team. The rule Is t now
worded' to refer simply to any baseball
team whatever.^
