~GEORGIAN SPORTS COVERED 4 EXPERTSS
. By “Chick”. Evans.
HE poet tells us that at this sea
l son of the year the young man’s
tancy turns to thoughts of love,
but we golfers know that our fellow
players, whose love affairs are nicely
settled, have their minds. in the
#pringtime, fixed upon some method
Whereby their skill in the game’ may
be largely increased. How it may be
done is the burning question
“Here,” says John Jones, “I have
been playving for ten years, and yet
John Smith, who only began golf last
year, is doing better than I. Indeed, 1
myself played better the first year
than 1 am doing now.'’
The golfers who speak thus are le
gion, and they invariably declded to
do certain very strenuous things to
improve their game, These resolu
tions are rarely kept. The golfers
learn that it is not the man who plays
eévery day and many hours of the day
who improves his game. In fact, he
may be merely cnnnrnrnu some ex
tremely bad habits. Béfore the sea
son is half over our golfer who cher-
Ished mighty ambitions in the spring
is saying: “lI only played for exer
gises anyhow.” Yet, we all know the
exercise of skill gives a joy passing
understanding.
The other day a friend, speaking to
me in regard to his desire to improve
his game for 1916, raised an interest
ing point. He said: “1 am just erazy
to play good golf, and I want to take
Jessons from the best professional
teacher in Atlanta. Who g he?”
» - - r
NAT!'RALI.Y. the first thing one
vhinks of in this connection is
g;trur'flon. and this golfer wanted the
t obtalnable. He is a member of
one of the big clubs in this district,
but he had lost confidence in the in
structor at his club--and it is, lindeed,
true that one instructor differs largely
from another in his abllity to teach,
1, however, could not say who is the
best teacher, even supposing that 1
kold a decided private opinion on that
subject, for most of the teachers here
abouts are my friends.
The anfbitious golfer surely should
get some Instruction, but unless he is
& milllonaire he should not use the
*“pro” merely as a means of practicing.
A good, honest pro can give one
enongh Information in ten scattered
lessons, after the fundamentals have
been learned, to mak® a vast Improve
ment in anyone's game.
Between lessons, practice must be
kept up systematicaly, for 80 per cent
of the improvement must come from
the pupil's own Industry; but this is
the matter for a future article

Tl{l interesting point with my golf.
ing friend was whether a mem
ber of one club could enjoy the in-
Struction of a prefessional employed
by another club. If John Smith has
confidence in the “pro” employed
: his club, is there any good reason
why he should be denied instruction
by & teacher at another club?
Yet, If a large number of the mem
bers of one club were taking lessons
from the instructor at another club,
the club members would ohject vigor
c‘ly. for there is no doubt they would

arrived here yesterday morning, and
will be with ug until Saturday afternoon,
when he will go back home. |
Abel was vcr{y much surprised over
the outcome of the recent Britton-Lew
i bout in New Orleans. *I thought
Lewis would win sure,” chirped Jake,
“a® he is by far the best boy I have
ever watched in action, Britton must
surely e a wonder to take his meas

Jake says that his bout with Lewis
drew over :1.000 in Chattanooga, which

off under the ausplces of the new Ran
dolph Rose Athletic Club,
Joe Levy, matchmaker of the Ran
dolph Rosé A; C., plans to stage two
hifl bouts next month. The first scrap
will probably ba staged on May 17 and
will brlnr together Porky Flynn and
Jack Dillon. The other mill will be
&ulled off on May 30 Jake Abel and
Matt Wells is to be the card for this,
date.
You've simply got to hand it to this
lack Dillon party. Tuesday nlfin he
took on Banlln“lavlnukr over the 15-
round route in Kansas City, and Dillon
proved that he is the Hebrew lad’'s mas
ter. Jack won the decision in fifteen
rounds.
Danny Morwn. who Is mu\noln' Le
vinsky, thought he would turn out two
winners in one week, as Britton, also a
Morgan battler, won over Ted Lewls
last Monday nlfht. Dillon, however,
would not have It that way, so Morgan
came through the fire with a §O-50 cut,
which is not bad, considering that Le
vln-kr should remain a card despite his

that Matt Henkle, the Cleveland ref

hasn't a chance of pulllnf off this stunt,
because Henkle is not licensed to ref

he wouldn't consent to Henkle.

To the Voters of Fulton County
On Friday you will vote for two Commissioners.
As a candidate for one of these two places, I am soliciting
your vote and influence—while it is true that I have lived in the
Second Ward, on the South Side, for 30 years—l will under
take to represent all portions of the city and county impartially
and fairly, as is the sworn duty of a»Commissioner.
During my service in the City Council, it was a part of my
duties to pass on the street work, hence my experience will be
of great value in handling road work on the County Board,
I shall use every possible effort in affording immediate relief
to the many neglected sections, in grading and paving the roads
and streets NOW in bad condition, while favoring the prompt
paving of the neglected main roads and thoroughfares; espe
cially do I intend %o see that the main roads or streets leading
to our cemeteries are paved promptly and kept in first-class con
dition after they are paved.
I own no land or property which needs developing !
I am in favor of reducing the taxes—which can be done by
a businesslike and economical administration of the COUNTY
AFFAIRS. ~Respectfully,
C. D. KNIGHT
\ (“D. Knight.”)
