!W:H Look Over Situation Person
ally—Expects to Make An
, nouncement Soon,
’ By Harry Lewis.
ANDOLPH ROSE is in Atlanta,
R and he is here for' the express’
purpose of looking over the
boxing situation and to attend
some business affairs regarding the
fr-phnlm: of his soda fountain, billiard
rooms and bowling aileya on Marietta
street, ’
’ Mr. Rose arrived here last night,
and he was accompanied by Joe Levy,
match maker of the Randolph Rose
Athletic C'lub, and one of the shrewd:
est men in the boxing game. Levy
spent several days here last week, |
and he has seen enough in this city to |
warrant him bringing Mr. Rose to
look over the situation here person-‘
ally.
\ When questioned as to whether Mr. |
'Rose is to put a club in Atlanta, I.ev_v‘
| stated that this is just what would
“happen, providing the l‘hnlmmmun‘
sporteman could see his way clear to
' put the game on in a high-class man
ner,
‘ - - -
“MR Rose expects to have some
finite announcement to make
within the next dav or two,” said Levy
this morning. “He is now dicker
ing for a site to stage his shows,
and if he can make suitable :qrr:lnm\-i
ments in securing the place he wants
then Atlanta boxing fans can look for
some of the best bouts ever staged
in this country within‘tho next couple
of months, !
“Mr. Rose has been asked by man,\']
of his friends in Atlanta to open a
boxing club here, hut he doesn't wnm.‘
to put bouts on uniess he can stage
them In a manner that will be a credit
to the game. This he exper(s to do,
hut he doesn’t want any Jdefinite an
nouncement made until b+ j= positive
of his stand,” continued Levy.
- - *
q HOULD Mr. Rose open his club
*7 here it will be the first time since
the history of boxing in this city that
an organized club has taken hold of
the game. Rose has in Levy a student
of the game and his confidence in
Joe was proven when he stated that
he was willlng to leave the entire
matchmaking angle of the game right
in Joe's hand should he open here.
At the present time Levy is manag
ing the Randolph Rose Athletic Club
in Chattanooga.
- - -
A CCORDING to Levy the Jack Dil
lon-Porky Flynn bout is sure to
draw a banner house in Chattanooga.
This is one of the hest boxing at
tractions ever brought to the Ten
nessee city, as Dillon and Flynn are
both boxers of note and have de
livered on numerous occasions in the
past;
The Dillon-Flynn scrap is billed for
Chattanooga on Mav 18. The bout is
to be an eight-round affair, with three
other scraps on the same card to fill
out the bill. A large erowd of At
lanta fistic followers are expected to
make the trip.

maining teams.

Ex-Georgia-Alabama
-Hurler Is Becoming
’
Star of Mack’s Staff
HILADELPHIA, May 10.—One
amust go a long way to find
the equal of Connie Mack for
brains and nerve in handling a
young ball player. His latest bit of
strategy may result in making a
great pitcher of Jack Nabors, the
lanky Southerner, who was _only
three weeks ago pronounced by
Mack “the greenest man he had ever
handled.”
There is not another manager in
the game who would have sent a
youngster—with as little knowledge
of the fine points of the game as
Nabors has at the present time, to
the mound to pitch an opening day
contest before a strange crowd.
Mack did it and got away with it in
splendid style,
In taking this great chance, Mack
killed two birds with one stone. He
did not think Nabors would win, but
knowing that he must get more ex
perience and confidence, figured that
he could get twice the amount of
each in an opening day game in
preference to an ordinary contest.
Results prove that he was right,
and when Nabors goes to the mound
again he will not only know more,
but also will have the needed confi
dence.
Nabors pitched for Newnan in the
Georgia-Alabama League last year.

Graff, who Is pastiming at third for the
Lookouts, i{s surely one sweet little third
sacker. In the first inning of yester
day's game he grabbed Lil Marcan’s
hot grounder in his gloved hand, threw
to Pitler, forcing Thrasher, who was on
first, at second, and Lil was doubled at
first on Pitler's throw to Harris.
Sammy Magcr was going at top speed
in the second inning when he grabbed
Pitler's pop fly off his shoe tops, holding
Hyatt on third.
The Crackers simply couldn’t make
the %ood-natured ““Rube’” Marshall mad.
"The latter was at his best, and he knew
it, too, hence the smile and confidence.
Tommy McMillan’s triple In the third
inning, with one gone, rolled along the
third base foul line clear to the stands
on the far end of left field. Jantzen,
the speedy Lookout left fielder, was in
hot puraglt, but he “was unable to get
the ball back until Tommy was resting
safely on third. .
i —
Perry and Thrasher were both hit by
rnltched balls following Tommy’s triple,
'but Marcan fanned and Mayer skied to
Hyatt, leaving the three men stranded.
After feeding Joe Harris three straight
balls In the fourth session, }’en?;l stuck
three straight over, Harris lifting the
last one to Thrasher in right.
The Lookouts scored thelr run In the
fifth without a hit. FElberfeld walk ad,
took second on Pitler's sacrifice, went
to third on Graff's out and scored when
Kitchens, who was passed, was put out
in a chase between first and second.
Perry’s double In the fifth was pretty
much of a fluke. The hit bounded into
foul territory. Graff expected the ball
to roll foul before it reached the cor
ner. Thrasher's double, which followed,
was timely.
Jantzen pulled off one of his regular
stuntß on his visits here when he raced
to left center and pulled down Lennox's
drive in the sixth Inning with McDon
ald on. \
Thrasher had a chance of getting Har
ris at the plate in the seventh inning
when he let Elberfeld's hot drive get
past him. The Kid took second on the
errors and registered on Graff's single
to left.

Big Boom for Harness Racing
Grand Circuit Here in August
HE immensity of the light har-
I ness racing game can not be
appreciated until one has delved
rather deeply into the' facts and fig
ures cogcerning it.
Here are the approximate figures
covering 1915, which may convey some
idea as to the size of the trotting
gmae:
Number of tracks in opera
tion i b ce e Iym
Number of meetings.. .. .. 1,100
Average meetings (days) .. 3
lotal faoing . diye.. ... <. 3,300
verage purses per meet
ing.. Rl gt cpil g liligy g “vm
Total purses distributed $5,550,000
Total horses campaigned .. 11,000
Total valuation of horses..slo,ooo,ooo
Total invested in stands,
real estate, etc... .. .. . . $40,000,000
Total invested in stables,
sulkies, harness, boots,
other equipment .. .. .. $2,000,000
These figures are conservative. The
average purses distributed last year
—and which will be eclipsed in 1916—
probably were beyond $5,000.
The Grand Circuit, which is the
“king pin” circuit of them all, has
thirteen weeks of racing. At each

meeting the average purse was $40,-
000, which means that this one or
ganization distributed $520,000 in prize
money last year.
There are scores of other eircuite,
where the purses average from 815, -
000 and $20,000 per meeting down to
SI,OOO.
The Grand Circuit akes in the big
gest cities of the East and' Middls
West. Next in importance comes the
Great Western, Springfield, Ill.; In
dianapolis; Fargo, S. Dak.; Phoenix,
Ariz., and Hamline, Minn. This cir
cuit distributes about $250,000 each
year among its horsemen.
Prominent amon= the other circuits
are the following: Metropolitan, Lake
Erie, Bay State, Kansas & Oklahoma,
Ohio, Michigan Short Ship, Coal, Oil
& Gas, Big Fair, Maritime Provinces
and Northwestern Pennsylvania.
In 1915 between 10,000 and 11,000
trotters and pacers either raced for
money or for records. Figuring that
each of these is worth a mere S6OO
shows that over $6,000,000 worth of
horse flesh was exhibited before the
public last season. The average of
S6OO probably is low.
In 1916, for the first time, the
Grand Circuit will enter the South
east, with a week’s racing at the new
Lakewood track at Atlanta.
