SALLY’S ANNUAL MEETING
WILL BE HELD THURSDAY
Election of President, the Question of Salary
and Players Limits, Report on Averages
and Adoption of Schedule.
Spedsl t« The Georgian.
Jacksonville, Fla.. Oct. 17.—The an
nual meeting of the director* of the
South Atlantic League club* will be
held In Charle»ton Thursday, according
to an official call of President Charles
Boyer.
Much business of Importance will be
transacted on this occasion.
One of the mtyt Important matters
to come up at this time will be the
election of a president. Whether or not
Mr. Boyer will succeed himself remains
to be seen. It has been stated that he
had been tendered the presidency of
the Virginia League and as that clrcnlt
would keep him near home all the sea
son that It was quite likely he would
accept the position. No announcement
has been made by Mr. Boyer relative
to his quitting the South Atlantic
League.
So other candidate ha* been an*
nounced for the place and the club
owners of the Sally League, with prob
ably the exception of Augusta, would be
j pleased to have Mr. Boyer remain ns
(the head of the organisation.
That Salary Limit!
Another matter of much Import to
come up at this time Is the salary limit
of teams for next season. Last year
the limit was raised to 11,700, but was
not adhered to. There was hardly a
club In the league that did not exceed
the price. Neither was the player limit
of sixteen men enforced to the letter,
and this caused some feeling. A raa-
jorlty of the directors will this year fa
vor limiting the teams to thirteen men,
Including the manager-player, and dis
pense with the salary limit altogether,
permitting each club to pay what price
they please. This, It Is said, will also
meet with some opposition on the
grounds that If one team Is paid a big
price the others will have to do like
wise to slny In the race, and that this
policy will result In bankrupting the
leaguo.
Same Old 8ch*duls.
The schedule of the season of. ltd
trill be submitted for adoption. Jt will
contain the same number of games—
11#—played last season, beginning April
It and closing September 9.
President Boyer will at this meeting
announce the official average* of the
teams for the past season, and the
awarding of the 11)06 pennant will be
officially made to the Savannah club.
The Jacksonville club will be represented
at the meeting by President William
C. West and Secretary James D. Bur-
bridge, who leave here tomorrow night
for Charleston.

New York, Oct. 17.—At odd* of 10 to
7 and I to 6, Terry McGovern, twice
beaten by Young Corbett, Is the fa
vorite over the once great chnmplon In
their six-round light at Philadelphia
tonight.
There Is every indication that It will
be the hottest scrap that Phltly or any
other town In the East has seen for
many a day. Strange to say, In spite
of months of loose living, the two
fighters have worked hack Into such
shape that their old-time supporters
are with them again and feel the same
conlldence In their ability as of old.
A few months of work In the Berk
shire hills, topped oft with strenuous
training at Johnson’s road house, has
restored Terry to hi* former nimble
ness, while he ha* lost not a whit of
his aggressiveness.
William Dawson, Charlie Mayhood,
Johnny Burdick and Ben Bowman have
been taking turns at being punched by
the little Brooklynite, and they will

McGrath and Alec Greggalns hnve Wil
liam H. Rothwell, the Denver boy, who
enrned fame under the sobriquet of
"Young Corbett," under their charge,
and have done wonders with him. Only
two months ago no one In the Sporting
world would have believed that this
boy, then spending his time freely
among the attractions of the great
metropolis, could again train Into a real
fighter, with considerable ability and
punitive p<
lappened.

Conn., under the watchful eye of Ore*
gains, the trainer whu put the finish

brought him back, There may be a
little superstition In the Corbett camp,
but they are all sure that Greggalns
has accomplished what nil believe to be
the Impossible, and that Is to restore
Corbett to his old lighting class.
Corbett and McGovern will be In the
ring at 10:46 p. m.
Jack O’Brien on War Path;
Whips Two Men in a Row
By C. E. VAN LOAN.
Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 17.—Philadel
phia Jack O'Brien took two more scalps
last night and we shall hear no more
of at least one “world's champion heavy
weight,” Fred Cooley, of Chicago.
If the said Coolsy ever put a hard
punch on O'Brien's jaw It must have
been wheo John was counting the gal
lery or flirting with somebody In the
boxes.
O'Brien put Coo|ey away In three
rounds. The "heavy weight champion"
was all In at the end of the seventh
round, for O'Brien stood up nnd stung
him and literally rocked him to sleep.
The minute's rest did hint no good and
rights to the Jaw sent Cooley to the
floor for the long count.
Oddly enough the same thing hap
pened In the Trimble light. O'Brien
fooled along with Trimble for seven
rounds, probably to give the people
something tor their money.
In the eighth he began to fight In
earnest and Trimble took the count
four times befove the bell, which saved
hint by catching him on the carpet.
Trimble was alt In when he came bark
In the ninth. O'Brien floored hint
twice In the ninth round und the sec
ond time Robinson counted Trimble out
before he got to his feet.

SEWANEE-TECH GAME IS THE FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP BATTLE
, The first game of championship proportions played In the South during
th» present season will be seen on Tech field Saturday afternoon, when the
team representing the University of the South at Setvanee meets the foot-
ballist* of the Georgia School of Technology.
This Is the first time this year that two teams who appear to have a
loolc-ln for the championship of the South will get together.
Just at present first honors In the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic
Association fold seem to He between Tech, Vanderbilt and Sewanee.
Tech ought to trim everything on her schedule without difficulty, save
Vanderbilt and Sewanee. Sewanee will have easy sailing, except for the
two rivals mimed, and Vanderbilt will undoubtedly trim everything In the
South unless Tech or Sewunee can stop her.
If Tech can hold the Skwanee rushers nnd cross the purple goal line,
they will be In a direct line for the championship of the Bouth, and tlierc
will be small chance that, any team will be able to put them out of tine
again until Vanderbilt arrives—end perhaps not even then. If Tech
loses Saturday, however, all chance for a look-in at the championship la
gone. So It Is up to Coach Helaman, Captain Davies and the men to play
their best In that game. And they can be counted on to do It.
The game ought to be highly spectacular. Sewanee'* teams are always
TECH GETS IN CONDITION AT LAST
For the first time this season Tech
will probably go Into the game next
Saturday with a full line-up of varsity
materia). Heretofore one or more of
the varsity squad has been out of the
game. Sweat and Lurk were out of
the Dahlonega game with bum knees,
while lest Saturday the names of Da
vie* and Luck did not show In the line
up. Davies expects to be back In the
game from now on, while Sweat and
Luck are rapidly rounding to and will
be In good condition by Saturday. With
these three men and Brown added,
■nuking four veterans as a nucleus.
Coach Htlsman has built up a strong
team.
So many coaches In the South have
seemingly neglected to take advantage
of the possibilities under the new rules,
that It Is nothing more than Idle spec
ulation to try to forecast what Sewanee
Is going lo do. That they are going to
put up a stiff game there 1s not the
slightest doubt, hut If they try to play
last year's football next Saturday It
looks as If they will be more than apt
to come to grief. Helaman has drilled
his men nn passing the ball almost os
much as on anything else, and with a
couple of fast men like Davies and lit
tle Hightower to.go down to the field
and take this long forward pass, that
department of play can be counted
upon to cut a very large figure In foot
ball games played In Atlanta during the
rest of this season.
Heretofore Helsman has uncorked
practically none of hlsi new plays, be
ing content with a smalt score and
victory, even by a narrow margin.
Brown Is rapidly rounding Into his
nid-tinie form and some beautiful punt
ing will probably be In order.
So far, practically nothing has been
heard In Atlanta as to what Sewanee
Is able to do. They have played no
ImiKirtant games and when the Tiger
leavea his lair Friday night he Is com
ing with his daws well sharpened and
the expectation of opening up the sea
son with a rush. Saturday will be a
crucial day for the prospects of. both

winner on that day wll( fight with
Vandy for the championship of the
South.
fast. The one of 1906 happens also to be heavy and well seasoned as
well. In weight uni experience Sewanee has everything. But Sewanee
will probably play the old-faahloncd football. They don't take kindly to
innovations up on the mountain, and they have shown no forward paasea
to speak of in the opening games. What they may be doing In practice
no man off "the mountain" knows, for Sewanee'* training and practice
secrets are as closely guarded as the Cxar of Russia, though they are In
much less danger.
But Tech Will undoubtedly take (he fullest advantage of the new rule*.
Coach Hdstprn has always been strong for the spectacular features
of the game, and this year he will be able to follow his bent wherever 14
may lead, for with the forward pass there appears to be no end to the va
riations of the old game and the tricks that may be tried. The team Is re
ported to be practicing steadily on trick plays and forward passes, and
something highly spectacular along that line can be counted on.
So It will be straight line bucking and end rune against lightning
plays nnd tricks on Saturday, when Sewanee and Tech meet and fancy
football will be on top. Sewanee seems to be favored In the mid-week
wtHhg, but the TeCh supporters are confident that their team will make

AFTER “BIG GAME."
Annapolis, Sid., Oct. 17.—The mid
shipmen expect to have an unusually
atrong field and tack team next spring
and have decided to challenge West
Point and also Princeton to dual
meets, t’harles McK. Lynch, of Greens-
burg, Pa., has bern re-elected captain.
He Is u "lialf-mller.” Clarence H.
Hurting, of Chicago, has been selected
as manager. One of the navy cracks
Is I, C. Carey, of Berlin, Md.. who has
done the loo yards in 9 4-S seconds.
Sewanee, Tenn., Oct. 17.—Next Sat

their first hard proposition of the sea
son, when they meet Tech on her own
grounds. There will be no. loafing
In the Tiger lair thla week, and what
ever Tech may, expert to do the wear

prepared to give them all they hava
from the first blow at the whistle till
the end.
The game last Saturday against S.
W. P. U., resulting In the score of 67
to 0, was an easy walkover for the lo
cals. Hard, straight ' football waa
played, the forward pass being used
only once, when It proved an utter
failure. Two end runs and a buck
were always sufficient to gain the
necessary ten yards, except where tho
team was penallxed.
The Sewanee backs worked like a
machine, and not once were they
thrown bark for a loss. Lewis, playing
right end, showed what sprinting stuff
he was made of when be accepted the

In Saturday's game he booted the pig-
skin over the opposing back fielder,

apprehension lest he should lose the
ball entirely.

Not once did S. W. P. U. gain her dis

Last year's gam* with Tech waa a
tie, which Incites the Tigers to do their
worst this year, and. If . possible, to
wipe out the old score.
The locals realise that In running up
against Helsman** bunch they will
hqve no walkover, as that famous
coach Is known to be able to turn out
a winning team from almost any ma
terial. Therefore, when the Tigers,trot
out on Tech field Saturday afternoon

CORBETT WEDNESDAY NIGHT
IN PHILADELPHIA.
By TAD.
New York, Oct. 17.—Two famom n,
Ue fighters meet at the Athletic Club
In Philadelphia tonight—Young Corbett
and Terry McGovern.
McGovern has been favorite over
Corbett because he has shown mor,
consistent form than the latter, and | t
thought to be In better shape.
Both have gone down the line con.
slderably In the last two years, but
Corhett has lost most of hia battles
while Terry still showed that he ivii
of first-class condition. Terry was out
fought by Nelson In a six-round bout
nnd that Is the only poor fight sines
he wa* beaten by the Denverite.
McGovern fought a rather close mm
with Britt at the .Garden here, but
scared the latter ao much that James
Edward has been afraid to hear Ter.
ry's name ever since.
Corbett men say that Terry Is not
himself when he faces the little bat-
tleshlp from Denver, that Corbett has
the wallop over Terry, and that any
time they mix Terry will be worsted
Corbett does not fear Terry's walloo
and. In addition, will weigh five-or ten
pounds more than the Terror. Mc
Govern men say Terry Is in better
shape. He will travel the six rounde
so fast that Corbett will collapse try.
*— to keep pace,
'erry has shown that he Is still a
first-class performer. He has his mind
made up, and Is more determined than
ever to win. He Is faster, boxes better
and his wind Is perfect.
The question makes the betting live.
Jy. No one seems to know why Terry
Is favorite, but such la the case. Tg.
night tells the story.

that he Is ready to meet him at any time, at any weight, and for a
