- Rival Basketball Teams Should
Put Up Corking Game in Ath
ens — Donahue Will Referee.
HE referee for the Atlanta Ath
letic Club-University of Georgia
basketball game has at last been
decided on.
After Coaches Bean and Peacock had
made a half-dozen selections, none of
which were favorable to both, the two
Bot together at last and decided on
Mike Donahue, of Auburn, so he will be
the official this evening
The game will be plaved in Athens
to-night and should be the most fiercely
contested affair the At'antans have beel
cglled upon to face this season. Geor
gla lost to Atlanta some weeks ago, 51
to 31.
The local quint will leave Atlanta this
afternoon over the Seaboard at 3 o'clock
accompanied by twenty-five or thi:
supporters

GR:\VI-ZS and Forbes, the local for
wards from last vear's champion

recently, wi'l hardly be used against the

- . -
JOH BEAN will probably use Lester
and Westmoreland both formei
Georgia stars, to start the game. These
two men have played on the Athens
court before and are therefore familiar
With the lay of the baskets and side
lines from every angle
The battle between the rival forwards
will be looked on with much interest.
In Scott and Brown, Georgia has two
premier performers. Scott in his con
test here played a wonderful game e
scored 19 points of the 31 made by his
teammates. Morrison, at lcenter, is tall
and rangy. but in his Bgme here Du
Bard rolled up 22 pointsito Morrison's
6, therefore \Valter can be depended
upon to hold Morrison very close

Fll,\NK CARTER, also a former Geor

his former teammates, and with Wea
ver playing in great form will no doubt
glve a 4 good account of himself

championship for the second season
Both Georgia and Atlanta so far this
geason_ have only lost one game each.
The affair means much to bhoth quir

Whitney to Offer Johnny Ertle and ‘
Kid Herman Bouts With Pappas
AL MOORBE'S failure to remain here
for a bout with Jimmy Pappas has
caused Frank Whitney to turn to
other fields in an effort to secure a top
notch bantamweight to meet the little
Greek wonder in Atlanta.
Frank will to-day send offers to both
Johnny FErtle, claimant of the bantam
weight championship, and Pete “Kid”
Herman, the Southern crack, in an ef
fort to secure one of these boys for a
bout against Pappas in this city.
Rl - .
JIMM\' is at present in St. Louis. He
is now claiming the flyweight cham
pionship of the world, and there seems
to be no boys of his poundage who can
dispute his claim either,
Pappas will be remembered by local
fans as the lad who came here about a
Vear ago practically an unknown., His
first hout here found him pitted against
Joe Superior in an exhibition contest.
Joe, however, threw off the gloves In
the second round, as the going was 100
hot for him.
. » . »
"I"HP) Greek bhattler was next pitited
against Johnny “Kid" Underwood.
the Nashville scrapper, who is a great
little fighter when he is working on
the level, which he was the night he
encountered ‘Jeems.” The bout was a
scheduled ten-round affalr, but it ended
in the seventh session, when Jimmy, by
uncorking one of the prettiest Knock
otits it has been the writers’ pleasure to
witness in some time, delivered a k. o.
wallop to Underwood’s sfomach.
After the Underwood bout, Jimmy
tackled our own Bamln’tg Budd. Like in
the f‘ndprwoml mill, apras took the
Budd match at a disadvantage of about
10 pounds in weight, This bout took
place at the Columbia Theater, and it
was some serap. The mill was a sched
uled six-roung affair, and the first ses
sion of that battle is still r?memhored
by all those who were lucky enough to
be present.

Al‘ the sound of the Eong calling the
boys ‘to the center of the ring
for the first round, Pappas, underrat-
Ing the then unknown Budd, dashed out
of his corner hoping to put the *“Battler”
away in quick order, lgudd, however, is
a wonder when an opponent carries the
fight to him, and such he proved to be
that night, and it is still my opinfon
that had Budd had more experience
when he fought Pappas he may' have
ended the :crn{‘» with a k. 0. He caught
Jimmy a smashing right-hand wallop on
the eve a few seconds after the bell
rang and Pappas’ eye was closed tight
ly. During the remalinder of this pe
riod Jimmy had all he could do to keep
away y'rnw Budd, which he did simply
because the Atlanta glove-wielder fajled
to follow up his advantage.
After the first round, thouygh, it was
all Pappas. Jimmy proved himself a
great little fighter that night and won
the bout handily, displaying wonderful
ring generalship.
. - .
PAI‘PAS won over Underwood In a
return scrap, and later came his
only Atlanta defeat, his loss to Kid
Herman by a shade in ten rounds. This
scrap took place at the Bijou Theater
and was Pappas’ last appearance in a
real match here.
Jimmy left Atlanta to battle in other
fields after the Herman defeat, and for
a time was meeting with little success.
It looked as if he was to pass from the |
limelight. Lately, however, he has heen
going hatter than ever, and has been
recognized by the American Boxing As
#oclation as the flywelght champion of|
} the werld.

P\PPAS now wants to come bhack to
Atlanta. He writes Frank Whitney
that he is wililng to tackle any 116«
pounder in the country, Pal Moore or
Johnny Ertle preferred. He has already ‘
‘met them both, holding Moore even and

AVANNAH, Feb. 19.—Jake Abel,
S the Chattanvoga welterweight,
surprised the crowd present at
last night's boxing show staged here by
Nick Apera by the easy fashion he pol
ished off Johnny *“Kid” Alberts, the
tou%h 145-pounder from New York.
Alberts came here touted as one m‘l
the best avelterweights in the country,
but he was given a boxing lesson by
Jake Abel for fifteen rounds. After
Jake peppered Alberts in the early
rounds, he showed the local gathering
that he can also hit by scoring a clean |
knockdown over Alberts {n the seventh |
session, {
There was not a dissenting voice |
when Abel received the decision at the |
close of the fifteenth round. He put up|
one of the best scraps staged here In a)

Vie Moran, handled Abel during the]
contest, He stated after the hout that!
