There's Al“’GYE__EaflQel‘ of a Big Bl’owup When You Start to Bubble Over With logr
~GEORGIAN SPORTS: COVERED 4 EXPERTS®
|
' By “Chick” Evans. - 1
HE poet tells us that at this sea
] son of the year the young man’'s 1
fancy turns to thoughts of love, ‘
hut we golfers know that our felan‘
players, whose love affairs are nicely
settled, have their mindas. in the“
springtime, fixed upon some method
whereby their skill in the game mu,vl
be largely increased. How it may be |
done is the burning question. }
“Here,” says John Jones, “1 have
been playing for ten years, and yet
John Smith, who only began golf last
Year, is doing better than I, Indeed, 1
myself plaved betiter the first year
than 1 am doing now.'’
The golfers who speak thus are le
gion, and they invariably decided to
do certain very strenuous things to
improve their game. These resolu
tions are rarely kept. The golfers
learn that it is uot the man who plays
every day and yaanv hours of the day
who improves his game. In fact, he'
may be merely confirming some fix-'
iremely bad habits. Before the sea
son is half over our golfer s ho cher
ished mighty ambitiong in the spring
is saying: “I only played - for exer
ciges anyhow.” Yet, we all know the
fxerrlrw of skl gives a joy passing
inderstanding.
The pihier day a triend, speaking to
meAn regard to his desire to ilmprove
918 game for 1916, raised an interest
ing point. He said: “1 am just crazy
to play good golf, and I want to take
lessons from the best professional
teacher in Ann.nla‘ Who ig he?”
-
NAT!'RALI.Y. the first thing one
thinks of in this connection is
instruction, and this goifer wanted the
best obtainable. 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, indeed,
true that one instructor differs largely
from another in his abllity to teach.
I, however, could not say who is the
best teacher, even supposing that I
hold a decided private opinlon on that
subject, for' most of the teachers here
abouts are my friends.
The ambitious golfer surely should
get some instruction, but unless he is
a millionaire he should not use the
“pro” merely as a means of practicing,
A good, honest pro can glve one
enough information in ten scattered
Jessons, after the fundamentals have
been learned, to make a vast improve
ment in anyone's game,
Between lessons, practice must he
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.
. - -
THB Interesting point with my golf
ing friend was whether a mem
ber of one club could enjoy the in
struction of a professional employed
b¥ another elub. llf John Smith has
noe confidence in the “pro” employed
by his club, is there any good reason
why he should be denied instruction
by a teacher at another club?
et, If a large number of the mem
os gne club were taking lessons
the instructor at another club,
the club members would object vigor
ously, for there is no doubt they would
be greatly inconvenienced.

Jacob Abel, the Chattanooga glove
wielder, is in our midst snce more. Jake
arrived here yesterday morning, and
will be with us until Saturday anernoonJ
wheh he will go Fack home. 1
Abel was viry much surprised over
the outcoraa &f ’ho recent Britton-Lew
{s bout. in New Orleans. *I thought
Lewis” would win sure,” chirped Jake,
4% he is by far the best hoy I have
¢ver watched in action, Britton must
surely be a wonder to take his meas
ure.'”
Jake says that his bout with Lewlis
drew over ;2,000 in Chattanooga, which
i%, indeed, a big house.for the Tennes-
Sce city. This was the first fight pulled
off under the auspices of the new Ran
dolph Rose Athletie Club,
Joe Levy, matchmaker of the Ran
dolph Rose A, C,, {alana to stage two
blfl bouts next month. The first scrap
will probably he staged on May 17 and |
will brlnf together Porky Flynn -ndl
Jack Dillon. The other mill will be
g{ullod off on May 30. Jake Abel and
att Wells is to be the curd for this
date,
You've simply got to hand it to this
Jack Dillon ?urtfi. Tuesday nlfl\t he |
took on Battl n{\ #vingky over the 15-
round route in Kansas City, and Dillon
proved that he 18 the Hebrew lad's mas.
ter. Jack won the decision in fifteen
rounds, 5 |
Danny Mormun. who Is mnnuln‘ Le
vinsky, thought he would turn out two
winners in one week, as Britton, also a
Morgan battler, won over Ted Lewis
Jlast Monday nlfht. Dillon, however,
would not have it that way, so Morgan
came through the fire with a 50-50 cut,
whieh is not bad, considering that Le
vinsky should remain a card despite his
defeat at the hands of Dillon.
There are very few hCIV{‘WOmNQI in
the game today who can handle this
Dillon, party, let alone Mf‘ht heavies,
Jack in a r*fulur “man-killer,"” and it
takes a whale of a ringman to whip
him these days.
Charlie lev.“. the former secretary
of the New York Athletic Commission,
is now the local regounuflvo of
Snowy Baker, the Australian "l’"«ffl"
moter. Charley has been authorized by
Baker to w=end several good fighters to
Australia for battles.
Mike Collins, who took Fred Fulton
to New York for three fights, the first
of which will be with Al Reich at the
Stadium A. C. on April 28 now demands
that Matt Henkle, the Cleveland ref
eree, be the third man In the rlnr. Mike
hasn't a chance of pulllnf off this stunt,
because Henkle is not licensed to ref
eree In New York. Besides, Maxey
Blumenthal, manager of Rdc‘. says that
he wouldn't consent to Henkle.
Johnny Griffiths, of Akron, and Willle
Beecher, of New York, wil meet in a
10-round fight in Cleveland tonight.

County School Patrons Dissatisfied

g ,""" o S | County my candidacy
R g L e j&0 28 for County School Su
ei L o ER perintendent, I made
g b the statement that the
b i‘»fi;&' ;@ patrons of these schools
| g“&mfi « _ wanted a new Superin
b Rt ¢ b tendent. Upon complete
investigation I find that
. 2 the dissatisfaction is
B both general and wide

been made to lead the
N o B people of Atlanta to be
‘ i‘yx TR lieve that the patrons
" | 7R ket S are satisfied and pleased
A e at present. A complete
v &T‘ St and positive denial of
P the same will be made
& S, Friday by the voters in
the country districts. If
they had the right to
select their own Superintendent, the race would be easily won.
I submit my candidacy to the people of the city on my record as a school
man in the County Schools and at the Boys’ High School. If my record is
clean and good and the patrons of the schools affected want me, I hope you
will support me.
In conclusion I want to say I represent no faction, no clique; am run
ning on merit only, and have endeavored to conduct a campaign that be
comes a gentleman.

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 solicifing
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 to 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!
lam in favor of reducing the taxes—which can be done by
# businesslike and economical administration of the COUNTY
AFFAIRS. Respectfully, 3
