New Draft Rule Peeves President of Local Baseball Club

The thing Major Callaway is peeved

Major Callaway is peeved at organ

by a major league and not maklng‘
good in the big show reverts not '"i
the team from which he was draf!ed.‘
but to either of the ('lass AA lengues
that wants him. |
There are a number of other things
that cause Major Callaway to expe
rience a sense of peevernent with or
ganized baseball, but this is the Jast
bale of hay that led him to remark,
with an emphasis that sounded genu
ine enough:
“By gum, if 1 saw a good chance
to work the Atlanta team into the
Feds or other outlaw proposition that
would make money, I'd be mighty
likely to fall for it”
. & &
IN other words, Major Callaway,
along with a good many other mi
nor league magnates, is souring on
the lack of consideration handed the
minor Jeagues by the big fellows. 1
This recent draft reversion rule is
a case in point.
To use the Crackers as an example,
If Rivington Bisland, star shortstop
drafted by the St. Louis Browns,
should fail to make good in the big
show, he would not, under the new
le!ng’, return to the Crackers, as for
erly provided, Mr. Bisland would
be subject to call from any one of
the sixteen clubs playving ball under
the Double- A classification. Any club
in the American Association or the
International League could refuse to
waive on the Crackers' star, and if

TRAVERS GETS DRAW.
NEW ORLEANS, March 3.—-Jimmy

a draw In his ten-round bout with
Ernest Lucien
'several claimed him, he would be ap
portioned by lot, the same as when a
number of clubs draft the same
player,
. - -
! MAJ()R CALLAWAY considers that
| system as polite highwaymanry.
In that attitude he agrees thoroughly
lwlth 0. B. Andrews, preflsident of the
Chattanooga c¢lub, who unbosomed
himself a day or two ago with con
siderable candor, President Andrews,
of course, is exercised on Mr. Cove
leskie's account, figuring (and prob
ably correctly) that if the big Pole
should faii once more to stick in the
majors, he would stand small chance
of getting down to the Southern
L.eague through the two Double-A
clircuita.
1 e -
‘uTH()SE fellows don’t care a hang
about the little leagues,” sald
Major Callaway, “and they don’t care
who knows it. Year by year, the
men at the head of organized baseball
guard their own selfish interests with
rule after rule damaging to the minor
leaguers, They skim the cream of
the players from the small leagues,
and then they try to split the milk
and skim it again. I've got to the
point where my own personal inclina
tion would be to ditch the whole lay
out of organized baseball and swing
Atlanta into a league where it could
get some decent treatment, But, of
course, that sort of league isn't handy
just now.”

Jackson Meets Sharkey; Jones
Takes on Monahan, and Hooper
Battles Dixie Kid To-night.
HREE scheduled ten-round
I bouts or thirty rounds of box
ing is the offering Harry Stat
en has for local fans at his old club
on the viaduct to-night.
Staten has booked a ten-round
bout betweer Young Jacksen, of In
dianapolis, and Gus Sharkey, the sol
dier, and these boys promise some
interesting milling, Both are light
heavyweights and have been working
for ten days for the bout. Although
neither has done much boxing around
here, Staten has promised the winner
a match with some good boy at his
next show, which should make them
battle hard for victory.
The second go of the evening will
be a ten-round affair between Bat
tling Jones and Walter Monahan.
The latter has been training Eddie
Hanlon for several of his fights and
looke to be a tough ringman. Jones
and Monahan tippéd the beam around
the 158-pound notch,
The opening set<to will bring to
gether Billy Hooper and the Dixie
Kid, colored scrappers. This should
be an interesting mill, as both have
fought around here before.
S lon Against
McFarland to Stick
MILWAUKEE, WIS, March 3.—The
suspension of Packey McFarland from
Wisconsin still stands to-day, because
he falled to appear before the Wiscon
sBin Boxing Commission here yesterday.
The news of the death of the father of
McFarland's fiance did not stop the com
mission from taking the testimony of
witnesses on hand, inasmuch as no mes
sage had been receivea trom Packey.
It was revorted that Packey had sent
a telegram, but Secretary \auqhan said
he had received no word from him. Per.
sons who saw the bout testified to the
effect that McFarland ‘'shammed”™ and
the commission passed the ruling that
McFarland's suspension for one vear
stood. ‘
It is not likely that Packeyv will press
his suit, as he is gupposed to have signed
for a trip to Australia
All-Star Card at
Columbia Wednesd
An all-star boxing card will be staged
at the ‘Columbia Theater to-morrow
night Kid Young, the fighting news
boy, will be seen in.action against Jack
Gold in a six-round bout; Jack M~ Ma
hon tackles Kddie Collins over the ten
round route, while Kid Wonder and Joe
Turner will battle four rounds
The management of the Columbia
Theater made a big hit by booking
\'uunf. as the latter is one of the big
gest drawing cards in Atlanta. In meet
ing Gold, Young will be giving away
about ten pounds in weight, but at that
can be counted on to give Gold a hot
scrap, Twenty rounds of boxing will
be offered the fans.

Model Golf Links in California
Hotels Have Their Own Courses
. 33 TV
By ‘“Chick” Evans.
T is difficult for the average At-
I lanta golfer, who has never spent
a winter in California, to realize
that well-kept golf courses are scat
tered all up and down the Pacific
Coast, and that Californlans are
among the most enthusiastic of golf
ers. It is true that very few of them
Journey Eastward for the big events,
but within the confines of their mvn‘
State they enjoy numerous luurn:t-l
ments, not only among themselvns'.l
but with the KEastern visitors, who |
avoid the cold in the golden land of
flowers and fruit. Almost every hotal
of considerable size in California pré
vides either a goli course of its own
or has an arrangement with private
clubs whereby its guests may enjoy
their favorite game.
A friend who has spent a few weeks
recently on the Pacific Coast has .i”*‘tl
called my attention to a pretty little |
course nea{ Santa Barbara.
N\ L i Gk )
SANT.‘. BARBARA is only one of
the many California towns be
loved of tourists, Almost encircled
by mountains, its long shore line runs
nearly east and west, thus giving an
unusual southern exposure. This
double influence of sea and mountan
provides one. of the most equable cli
mates in the world, where the rea;
meaning of heat and cold is practical
1y unknown.
About five miles from Santa Bar
bara is situated the golf course of the
Potter Country Club. It can be easi:
ly reached by automobile 'bus, or hy
private conveyance over excellent
roads. The automobile 'bus runs on
schedule time from Hotel Potter to
the club. A pretty, well-equipped
clubhouse, with a charming approach
called Palm avenue, is delightfully
situated on an elevation above lLagu
na Blanca. This is a picturesque lit
tle sheet of fresh water, about 75
miles in extent, .
. - .
I.\’ addition to the golf course, the
Potter (‘ountry Club boasts of a
polo fleld and a race track, and sport
ing events on all these grounds are in
full view of the clubhouse windowsl
and verandas, ‘
The golf course occupies 150 acres
‘of the celebrated Hope Ranch, It is
a pretty little course of nine holes,
Bogey for the course is 39, The holes
are of the following distances:
FFirst hole (the Lake), 380 _\»'m‘ds.l
bogey 5: second hole (Round Ton),|
335 yards, bogey 4: third hole (Moore's |
Grove), 133 vards, bogey 4; fourth|
hole (the Ridge), 240 vards, bogev {; :‘
fifth hole (Halfway Hole), 450 yards. |
