HANDSOME CUPS OFFERED
ATHLETIC CLUB GOLFERS
Most of the detnllH for the toiirnninent
next month to deride the ownership of the
new Trnwlrk cup have been arranged. At
Inst meeting of the directors of the
Atlanta Athletic Association, It wna do-
•hied to offer two cup*, to l»e pin.red for
ns second and third flight cups In the Tr«-
vlck coni|*etltlnn. Them* cups will 1m* hand-
ionie nffnlrs, though they nre not of auffl-
•lent vnlue to detract Interest In any way
rom the main cup.
It la probable that the qualifying round
•f tournament will Ih» played Tuoadny, Sep
tember m. The best eight score* will qual
ify for the Trawlek cap, the next sixteen
for the second cup, and tho next alxteeu
for the third cup.
The next day, match piny round* will
begin, eighteen hole* each afternoon, and
tournament will run through the re
mainder of the week. The thuil rounds for
II cups will he |dnye<l Saturday after-
non, September 22.
A cup has lieen offered by Mr. Trawlek
annually for three years, and the one which
will be played for III September will make
the fourth. The first and third were won
by W. 1\ Hill, and the second one by F.
G. Ilyrd. tin nil three occasions, the affair
been between these two golfers, and
It looks as though the? would be the
strongest contestant* this year. The cup
tf course, Is* a very handsome one,
and It will become the permanent property
of the winner.
By having three flights, nnd allowing
sixteen to qualify !u both the secoud nnd
third flight, It In hoped to Interest prac
tically all the golfers In the club,
entrance fee will be charged, and a
qualifying rounds will classify the golfers
ling to their ability, the affair should
prove unusually attractive.
Well! Well! Two
Birmingham. And wh
pies at that.
All Atlanta Incked this season was luck
With that necessary factor, the pennant
•ould Imve flown over l'ledmnnt park when
the opening hall wns fired next spring.
Ought to make It three out of four
from Montgomery with all ease. The
Climbers have not proved so very puz
zling In the past.
Proceedings were enlivened In the smoker
Wednesday by 11 tight between Prank Dar
nell, n dwarf, and J. B. Bowen. Accord
ing to thorn* who were In a position to
see the circus, Darnell made himself ob
noxious to those In the bleachers, and when
Bowen remonstrated with him, Darnell at
tacked him. There was quite u busy fight
for a few minutes, and Bowen got con
siderably the worst of It.
The lidding of Wallace III center Add
wns nbout the most brilliant thing that
has been seen at Piedmont park this your.
In the flrst, fourth, sixth mid seventh In
ning* he made circus stops of balls which
looked good for safe hits. It Is doubtful
If better work lias been done In the league
this year than that which Wallace has done
»f late. If his hitting Improves a bit, he
Is good for the rest of the season nnd
another try next spring.
Garvin made n stop that wns all to the
grand stand himself, lib stopped n fly of
Jordan's that looked more like n hit than
auy other luflehl put-out of the dfly.
Harley waa put off the grounds by the
order of Pmplre Uuddcrluim during the
game. Harley's remarks were n shade
too sulphurous to suit his limps.
While the fight wns tnklng place Wednes
day, a Baron got to flrst base. But every
body was so busy watching the stunt which
was not on the program that not one man
In ten knew what wns happening ou the
field, or liow the lone Uaroii got to flrst.
Birmingham errors gave Atlanta the
game. Bengali deserved n victory.
The Barons' pitchers nre certnluly hold-
lug them up In the race.
“flee!” remarked Garvin, the humorist,
"we'll sure have n hot team next year.
All the men on tho team lire youngsters.
re's me, practically n beginner; Moles-
worth, who has Just broken into baseball;
Harry Vaughn, another youngster; Mont
gmnery, who never saw a baseball game
until n few years ago; Gear, Walters and
Matthews. Did you ever sec* such a lot
»f kids.’’
And Garvin never cracked a smile.
Presumably, Garvin ,wni "funning."
n matter of fact, the average age of tho
collection he named would Ik* somewlu*
In tie* region of forty-eight year* or there
about*.
The Atlanta fan Is un odd article,
will turn out In drove* to see Atlnflta play
Little Bock, tho worst team In the league,
because he Is practically sure that At
tn ntn Is going to win. And yet be
duck the Inst Birmingham series, which
was practically certain to bo 0110 of the
very best In the year, because there
a chance that Atlanta might lose.
Wallace seems to have renovated bis bat
ting eye; get* n single almost every day.
Wednesday It wns n double.
Birmingham's Intlelders had a day off
Wednesday. Only four made assists.
Walters took two of them, while the other
two were divided between Reagan ond
Montgomery.
Jordan was trying hard to win the game
In the fifth when he singled nnd then stole
second. But nobody hit.

The selection of an all-Southern team for
1906 has been simplified by excluding tueu
who, regardless of their abilities as players,
are disregarded if Ineligible under any of
the terms set forth at the outset.
Left end is to be taken care of by lake
of Vanderbilt. This splendid defensive eud
loot successfully guarded his territory In
the most consistent manner throughout the
season -a strongly made young American
athlete, with brains nnd decisive action; he
weighs 172 iMMinds and gets this lu full uc-
tlon under the largest of punts.
I*ft tackle Is tilled by Taylor, a player
whose place has uot Iteen strongly contested
by any other Southern player nor lu the
Judgment of any competent critic. He also
halls from Vuuderbllt aud weighs 176
ids.
Left guard, Derrick, comes from Clemaon,
id Is a veteran player who, by steady lm-
•ovement, ha* put himself lu the first rank
of llpestuen. lie was the mnlustay of the
lemsuii sea sou ami no other Southern
player could so satisfactorily All this Im
portant posttolti; hence, to balance the
I utilize tho best of the material
available, he le shifted from center to
guard.
he Initial point has been somewhat dif
ficult to decide, aud the truth Is that there
great nmouut of material to select
Atkin* of Sewanee Is urged by
I some, while 81m* of Georgia Tech has hi*
| admirers; yet, all considered, the consensus
I of opinion* gives the place to Pattersou of; J.fJJJ.jj
A. B. Speer, assistant groundkeeper at ! Vanderbilt. ^ j park t<
zntlon; yet this element, while oftcu un
developed. does not warrant us In displac
ing Hamilton of Vanderbilt, who guards
this side so faithfully nnd effectively.
To maneuver the actions of this organiza
tion, Kyb* of Vanderbilt Is given the place
over Randolph of Virginia; the latter, su
perior In open field work nnd kicking. Is
Immature In diverting the attnek ns con
trasted with the exceptionally high charac
ter of the work of Kyle.
I.oft half ngnln goes to Johnson of Vir
ginia, which place Is perhaps the strongest
In the field. He Is always at his best of
fensively nnd defensively, a gentlemanly
spirit guiding his every act.
t’ralg of Vanderbilt will again Ih» placed
at right half, a splendid plnyer who would
make Johnson a flue running mate.
Fullback position Is filled by Mauler of'
Vanderbilt, although Clark of Georgia 7«?li
has been favorably spoken of b* many.
The tenuis as rated by competent critics
stand In the following order:
1. Vanderbilt.
2. Georgia Tech.
3. Cleuison.
4. Sewn nee.
5. Alabama. /
6. Cumtierlnnd.

Some of the change* In the fimtbnll rules
from those used last year to the ones which
will be used this fall were given In yes
terday's Georgian. A further discussion of
the chaugi*s follows:
Holding has been more specifically defined
to Include the following:
Grasping an opponent with the hands or
'arms, placing the hand* ii|nui an opponent
to push him away from the play, circling
III any degree any part of the oppontut
with the arm, any use of the arms to lift
nu opponent In bliwklug. The only allowa
ble use of the nrnt In blocking or obstruct
ing nn op|>ouent Is with the arm* close to
the hotly.
The most radical of all changes made,
however, has been the Intnaluctlon of the
forward pass, the rule for this reading n:<
follows;
"One forward pn*s shall h* allowed to
each scrimmage, provided such pass he
made by n player who wa* li-dilml the line
of scrimmage when the ball wa* put In
play, and provided the ball, lifter Ik Ing
pnssed forward, does not touch the ground
before being touched by a player of either
side."
The necessary distance to he gained in
three down* has been doubled—that Is, the
side In possession of the hull must gain ten
yards lu three downs Instead of five, a* for
merly. This I* the most direct legislation
against inns* plays.
When the hall ha* Ik*cu klck«*d by n
Player other than the silnpperhack, any
player on the kicking side shall be nn-slde
a* soon a* the ball touche* the ground. This
Is also a very radical change.
It I* also provided that such a kicked hall
striking the ground, thus putting the kick
er* side on-side, may not bo kicked further
kicked at from Its position on the
ground, or while houudlng. This Is lu or
der to prevent what might he dangerous
complications from men kicking at a rolling
UNION POINT WIN8 AGAIN.

The rather Indefinite expression of
''charging" has beon changed to "startliuf
': r .*‘ ,r :L T SP.. n .'!.. ,, >': *-< , »trr,l„t„ K liue’’ In all
.". "SJ",."I? Of Z'ljaat
a* the ball doea not touch the groan
The rule rcgurdlng foul play ha*
amplified and specifically cover* striking I
with the fist or elbow, kneeing, kicking, [
meeting by linemen when they nre break
lug through.
Furthermore, n player on defense Is f'*r
bidden to strike In the face with the hoi I
of the baud nn op|K>uent who Is curryiuf j
the ball.
These offenses nre punishable
by disqualification of the player* but, ato
the bis* by the offeiidlug team of half the |
distance to It* own goal Hue.
Tripping and tackling the runner
•learly out of hound*, piling up on a plaj* J
after the referee has declared the ball dca$» j
hurdling, nnd other nets of
roughness, nre punishable by a 16 yard b**k
Tackling below the klice I* punishable >’f j
a 5-yard loss. Unsportsmnn-llke _ eon
nhnslve or Insulting language to oppoi
or official* Is punishable by *usp**usb>i
the remainder of the game.
It I* provided that ir tackier
fairly ruckled a runner al*»ve 1
shall not Ik* penalized If he slides dowi
low the knee after making the tackle.
All the officials nre ex|K*cted to penallw
offenses enumerated under unnecessary
roughness, unsportsiunn-llke conduct,
disqualification.
On ponnltlcH that would carry the ban
or ncros* the goal line, where formerly tw |
distant-** ha.* l*een halved, the ball will
be placed at the one-yard line.
