phant banked out a double, Stout
sl'pped over a single and Josh Cody

The game was staged as a prelim

Lieutenant Milton Reed, former
«Lracker and Mobile shortstop, per

The less said about that ball game
Sunday afternoon the better. The
only thing worth relating is that the
Chicks won without hesitation, 14 to
4, and it was the second Sunday pro
fessional game played in Atlanta.
However, as we have well nigh a
column to fill, perhaps it would be
better to continue, as the above, para
graph is a bit short
Our kid battery of Boone and Styles
didn't work—or rather, it did, but it
didn’'t. They were in there, but ev
erything they did helped the Chick
asaws on and on. Boone lasted four
innings before the Chicks could loosen
his grip on the slab-piece, which they
did with much eclat and precision.
At the beginning of the fifth, Les
ter or Leslie Alken entered the scene
and his vislt was evgn more success
ful from a Chick standpoint. lif
teen luscious smacks were propound
ed by the enraged tail-enders, three
ts which eame from the bat of our
old friend, Louie Christenpury. Every
man on the visiting elub ;mweps
Catcher Meyers collected a blow, an
several of them took a second digh,
while the more or less aged Cyrus
Barger picked off three. j
Crackers Were Off.
The game was played before an
assemblage totaling about 6,000, these
small figures being due to the fact
that the tail-end vlu%{flan in our
midst. But the tail-gnders played
like champions, while our pets were
hurling the elusive horsehliide into the
crowd, the dirt, the grandstand and
the ribs of the opposing players.
The Chicks are said to be play
ing with a crippled line-up. If they
are, they will be in a much worse fix
when they leave here than they are
now, if Manager Frank persists in
using Lefty Aiken against them. Les
and Boone collaborated in injuring
glightly five Chicks. Les hit two men
in a row in the seventh. Those Lgfty
couldn't hit managed to get a hit,
with the exception of a scant few.
Canavan, late of'the Boston Braves,
gouthpawed the Crackers out in pret
ty fair style, only eight clouts being
recorded off him. Five of these were
doubles into the poor crowd. Some of
the latter stuck till the bitter end.
It must be said, though, that the
Crackers got the worst of the breaks,
but even if all that had been com
pletely turned around we would still
have been several runs down at the
close. Our men played tail-end base
ball, while the real denigens of the
cellar were hitting the ball on the
{mse and putting up a high grade of
hall.
Styles did not look so good, this
being due to stage fright or some
thing, perhaps. It was his first pro
fessional game. He showed none of
the spirit that he displayed here in
college contests. Boone was pitching
to his old side-kick as he used to do
‘at the University of Alabama, and
Southern League batsmen are a con
siderable improvement over college
stickers. ‘Styles’ throws around the
sacks weren't very good, but all of
‘the home boyvs were hurling the pill
exactly where it shouldn’'t be hurled.
| Airplane Visits Field.
’ In the latter half of the first inning
an airplane swooped down aver the
field and threw a scare into the Chick
infielders, who evidently thought
‘Charlie Frank had this event ar
ranged to frighten all the baseball out
of the visitors. The plane circled the
field a few times, dropping some kind
of propaganda on the helpless multi
tude and then beat it.
A splendid running ecatch of a fly
ball by Bratchi in the first inning,
which was relaved to first base for a
double killing on Christenbury, who
had strayed off the bag, was the fleld
ing feature,

M Cranking Up for Fight -

Not Betti on - Himself
By JESS WILLARD, * . '
Heavyweight Champion of the Worl‘d.
Can I get in shape for my battle
with Jack Dempeey for the champion
ship. of the world in Toledo on the
afterroon of the Fourth of July?
U'pon the. answer to that question
depends a fortune, a title that is the
highest bestowed for physical prow
ess and the decision of bels ranging
into millions of dollars, i
Understand at the beginning of this
series of articles that not one penny
of my _ money will be bet upon the
outcome. | have never bet upon my
self, For that matter, I have never
bet on anybody or'anything.” I have
never gambled-—-unless you call stak
ing ‘out oil claims gambling, Per
haps if 1 had shown a gambling
streal. I would have been more popu
lar with some fellows incthe sporting:
game, but | can’ help. my mentar
‘make-up. - The bright lights and thes
thrill that comes from the turn of a
card or the roll of dice mean nothing
at all to me,’ They simply don't ex
ist. The bright lights make my eyes
ache and the gambling thrill simply
isn't,
SO, when you hear the story being
whispered—as it will be whispered.
“Willard. isn't’ betting on himself,”
you can whisper right back, "I know
he isn't. <‘He told me so'hnmself.’;l
You can also tell the wise guy that I'
‘will be in there fighting in defense of
r"r;fl title just as hard as!if'l had a
‘ lion dollars at stake in'a: ?p bet.
~And now tbgt I have tn} Llittle
‘thing ff my chbst, let me get back to|
the question of condition. I am ask
ing ‘myself the question with which I
opengd this article.. 1 am asking it
of my arms, of my legs, and, most of
all, T am, Y!UKHHF “3;0 question to what
the trainers ‘call my ‘“bellows.”
1 am asking the question just now
in a whigper, which is one wuy of
saying that 1 haven't been puiting
any heavy task upon any part of my
body. The time will come within the]
next' month when I will shout the
query to every muscle and every
nerve, to every faculty and every or
gan, « I will shout. it.shmrply and sud
‘denly by putting te every gear of my
body every test I'may ?gfgm undergo
on the num-noon»o; T Ay
\ And when Ido shout the gyery 1
‘must have my nerves and muscles
'shout back, “Reddy, old ‘hoy! Ready
‘all down the line!” There mustn't
'be any hitch anyhere, What the nu-d-l
dcal sharps call““‘eo-ordination” must
be the rule. Iyes, legs,’ arms, nerves,
everything, must be ready for the su
preme test. e ¢ 5
Expect Hardest Battle.
I am net underrating: Nempsey.
Thers2 is too much at’ stake for me to
take g, chance with -h'lqn. {iHe is a
wise, willing, stréng fellaw, and I
have no-doubt he "W%K Bei there try.-
ing every minute. I 'have doped him
as a rushing fighter who tears in
from the tap of the gong, I have him
doped out‘also as” quite‘a ‘Hoxer—one
who is ahle to- take advantage of
every opening and to:sheet in and|
knock out & man Wwith either hind. 1}
hopé that all this is correct,- because
it will assure thHe public of a first
class show. - 1f Dempsey -p\n,\'s-oau-i
tious and stavs:away all’ tmdnpa
will be upset. I am not' bankifig on
}mut,. however. 1 am making my
plans for the hardest and Qli"erest‘
battle 1 have ever been in. ¢ |
l Add that brings’ The again to the
“question of my dondition: Al%mg about
the first of the year I*decided that I
would give Dempsey & chance at my
title. He had earned that’ right by
the way he polished off Fred Fulton
and the clean-cut way he went down
the line, knéeking out tough ones. Of
course, now and - then he ran up,
against a snag, like that fight over
‘in Philadelphia with Rilly Miske, that
some of the newspaper critics gave to‘
Miske. However, smu was only a
six-round affair and #eally should not
be charged up dgalust Jack, Miske is
a strong, skillful boxer, and it is hard |
to hurt him over a Sshort wroute. 1
knew there would be no question of
Dempsey’s ¢ condition. Youth nnd"
‘everything that training science could
do for him would be his, 1 checked
off agdinst Jack's yvouth my own years
and I figured out that I wag able to go
any .route ;provided 1 ,was given
enough time to get into shape.
« "As 1 said, that was Hfibl‘n the first
of the vear, and | immediately started
raining pßadually an@ methodically.
Most athletes make their higgest mis
take in preliminary training. 7This is;
true especially when they have pass«d'
30 years.,” They jump into it too
strenvously.© They burn themselves
up too fast and don't give nature the
chance to adapt the body gradually
to the new demands that are about to
be made upon it. i
Training All the Time.
Of course, even last January I was
not really out of training. You see, 1
have bhoxed regularly in exhibitions
daily while my circus was on tour,
and during last “vear I gave many
exhibitions in cantonments thmugh-l
out the country. This work was in
A Clean Newspaper for Southern Homes
addition ter my r’eg‘ular daily, éxer-‘
cises, and it all helped to Keep me in |
pretty good shape. dhott Wl
And white*] am talking about can
tonments, 1 want to speak for a min~
ute about my relations to the war and
war work. I am married and haye a
family of ch&ldreg, I was over’the
draft age, bt was.a¢nady to answer
the second“draft which extended the
age limit. These were exactly the
conditions confronting almost every
American man of my age and rumily‘
respunsibilities. At the selicitation of
camp authorities, I contributed my
service freely whenever called upon. I
bought Liberty bonds to the limit of
‘my ability and did my share of war
work. 1 don’'t believe in shouting pa
}wmw‘m from +the. housetops. - All 1
want the Amerjcan public 1o know is
!;tha& 1 was -ready; -whenever my
country needed me. . ‘. )
After I had decided that I was in
shape to fight Dempsey, I rearranged
my diet. I also %earmnged my hours
of eating in order that my sleep
should be unbreken and should give
me the greatest benefit, In the stories
to follow this I will take up in detail
these all-important matters of diet
and rest, and will tell my expeviences
for the benefit of my readers,, 1 fig
ure thaf a great deal of good will fol.
tow; the reading of these articles. 1
have had the most eéxpert advice in
the world in the matter of training
and I have tried out he:lt_h princip‘:es
gn. my own body with the resulis that
rr#\'m(flg.‘ietlnn,q endurance 'an}:ll recu
peratiye powers are about perfect, |
As an illustration of the soundness
of my training thecry my W’efght rec
ord shows that I took ,off 135, pounds
‘within two months after 1. began
work and that I am reducing steadily.
I am stronger and fitter ag a result of
that de £0 5.
i gfirgltl‘r?fp, profuse perspiration is
| an ahsolute necessity in the prépara
tion T'haye planned for myself. In
years past’ trainers of pugilists were
apt to adopt extreme and unscientific
methods to produce heavy perspira
tion. . These stunts left the men
Weéakened and more than one cham
plonshyy was - literally “sweated
away.” !
| There will be none of that foolish
ness in my case. [ have known men
to work in heavy rubber shirts and
others to totter out of steam rooms=
weak and almost sick as a result of
the unwise systems of their trainers.
For the greater part of the work for
this fight Jess Willard is going to be
hig own trainer. 1 have learned many
a 1 'on and one of the most valuable
is to hold fast to the things that have
worked out well, . I have trained for
short fights and for long fights, and
believe I know my own peculiar bod.
ily condition bétter than any trainer
can dope it out,

~ OOOOMILE STARTER
E. C. Patterson, of Chicago, cele
‘hrated cross-country driver, football
expert and ex-baseball star, has been
selected to start. thg - international
Liberty Sweepstakes race, on the In
dianapolis Motgr Speedway race, May
31. 'ln previous ‘years Patterson has
been an-entrant, bringing Theodore
Pilette from Belginm to compete in
the contest of 1%13, and backing
Ralvh DePalma in the 1914 and 1916
events, /
Patterson is one of the finest
sportsmen’ who ever graced a pas
time, and he has been identified with
a number of them.+ As an example
of his mettle it may be cited that in
1915, when DePalma captured ' first
‘money at Indianapolis, amounting to
$20.000, Patterson, though he had
financed the Italiarn’s campaign in its
entirety, refused te accept a single
penny of his winnings, but insisted
that he keep them all
Undisputed holder of the cross
country record between New York
and Chicago, Patterson makes it a
point every year to try and clip a few
‘minutes off of the best previous per
formance, and-thus far he has al
ways succeeded. “When he is not
busy driving fast cars, he picks all-
Western footbhall teams for Collier's
Weekly, and he also holds the strike
out record for organized baseball.

Preps In Successful Season
, Great Year for Nfioys’ Hiél? "
Athletes Star Higher Up
With the opening of the'tennis
tournament Thursday, Friday and
Scturday, the prep league will wind
up a_very successful season. With its
wrangle and jangle among the direc
tors “of the league and the hustle
anc bustle of the players in the dif
feredt branches, we have had indoor
as well as outdoor sport, but it
leaves no sting. It has made better
friends; it has given each and every
one of us a chance to know and un
derstand each other better.
Too much credit cam not be given to
the prep league for its development
‘of athletes. Its athletes can be found
or all the college teams in this vicin
ity. and in looking back over this
past year I find in basketball such
men as (ocke, Oliver -and Morrison,
of the A. C. C,; Mott and Cheves, of
University of Georgia, battling
against each other for the Southern
ctampionship. The Georgia Tech
football team showed Bill Fincher, B.
Adams, Staton, Davis, ‘Doyal, Wally
Smith, " Granger and others that I
can't remember just now.
The baseball teams of Georgia and
Tech both had old prep, leaguers—Ad
ams, Wrigley, Wally SBmith, on Tech;
Mott and Cody, on Georgid. ‘
The track team;at Tech'and other
colleges plafied former prep leaguers
on their teams, and all together we
“In order o thoroughly
satisfy the needs of the
body, diet must be varied.”

should feel proud of what the league Is
doing for the young men of Atlanta.
At the recent track meet on a mud
dy field the boys made some remark
~able performances, and despite the
rain refused to quit. The perform
ances of the difféerent schools in the
wirning line goes as follows: ;
Football, Boys' High School; bas
ketball, Boys' High School and Tech
High School were tied for first place;
baseball, Boys' -High School won the
championship. f
This was a good year for Boys’
High School, which is to be congrat
ulated. 1
The prep league is not by any
means perfected. The directors are
learning something new about ('on-‘
ducting their athletic affairs each
vear, and with the spirit of all fox'
one we hope in the near future to
have a real organization .

Earl savs he is far overweight and
that it "would ‘take two weeks of hard
training to get back into shape., Earl
learned on his arvival, that he is the
daddy of a boy. He says if he can notl
get into shape on his ranch he will quit
the game.
