UP-TO-DATE NEWS OF SPORTING WORLD READY FOR FOE EDITED BY PERCY «. WHITING TECH-SEWANEE BATTLE SHOULD BE A WARM ONE Tech Team Does a Little Final Work Friday Afternoon—Sewanee Team on Way to Atlanta. After Friday afternoon'* llcht prac tice the Tech team will rest on Its arms In preparation for the first real championship battle of the year, which takes place at Tech park tomor row afternoon between the Smithies and the Purple Tigers from Sewanee. The Sewanee team I* already on Its way to Atlanta, and will arlve here early Saturday morning. No ganfes In Atlanta this season, out side possibly of the Georgia and Van derbilt games, will attract as much at tention as this contest. Undoubtedly .more people will see the game than all the rest of the season thus far pul together. A rather good Indication of the In terest the battle Is attracting Is the decidedly lively betting which Is going on. The odds range from even money to 4 to 6. and when any odds are given the Sewanee backers have to put up the long end. The under current of feeling seems to be that Sewanee has a shade the better chance, but owing to the Un certainty of the game under the new rules, and because of the confidence of all Tech men In Coach Helsraan. the Sewanee barkers do not have to go far In the way of giving odds before their money Is snapped up. The probable line up of the two teams In the game Saturday afternoon follows: Tech. Position. Sewanee. Monroe center. Watkins, (capt.) Henderson ..right guard .....Lumpkin Safest left guard Evans Rucker McCarty light tackle....Harris Luck left tackle Stone Hill right end Lewis Brown left end .. . .Williams Robert quarterback.. ..Elserle Hightower left half.. ..Markley Davies (capt) ..right half Shipp Means fullback Barrett “Doc” Payne Tells Players To Loaf During Winter By JAME8 E. (DOC.) PAYNE. ■ (Local baseball fans who got out to ss* the early doings of the bats- ball teams in Atlanta last spring and ths on* bsforo, will remember “Doc” Payne, th* big, good naturod. ex-pugilist who acted as trainor, rubber and gsnsral jollier for th* Cleveland him. Below will b* found a bunch of hot air from him, about what ball playors should do in winter in order to b* in th* best condition for spring practice. It appeared first In th* Cleveland Nows.) * Having learned something of the human anatomy In fifteen years of the constant tratntng of the various types of athletes, prlxeflghters, wrestlers and ball players, I am tempted to raise my voice In protest when I hear of such- and-such a ball player “keeping In training" through the winter by bowling, and other forms of special Ised activity, with the Intention of "keeping In) shape” certain muscles whlctf he Is In the habit of using and depending on during hts active- sea son on the diamond. The ball player who does this Is doing himself more harm than good. A ball player In the winter time should, generally speaking, just loaf, lie should do only enough exercising to keep himself In health, and above all things, ho should not keep any one set of muscles on edge through the off season. Xbose muscles should be given a rest. He should take only exercise of a general nature, and let himself grow fat If he keeps In training all win ter he Is certain to bo stale In the spring whsn he should be ready to begin, not to leave off, training. He should return gradually to hard work of^the diamond, not stick at It all winter. He should take It very easy at first, and be careful not to overexert himself at the start, as hosts of them do through misguided seal and anxiety to get Into shape ns soon as possible. The uninstructed ball player Will work himself Into a Charley horse at practice the first days at some kind of muscular training that please* his fancy. Instead of loosening up all the muscles of his body by grad ually Increasing general exercise. A ball player, as a matter of fact, should not be trained down to a fine point, like a prise fighter, a wrestler or a sprinter at any time. He should exercise hard and breathe deeply out of doors; but he need not strive to become “long-winded.’ He always has ample time for recuperation between his short spurts of activity. Because a ball player appears to be fat naturally, he need not worry over It. Because he Is stout Is by no means an Indication that he Is out of condi tion. Take Socks Seybold, for In stance, or Cy Young. They are alw In perfect trim, yet they look to anything but athletes because of their bulk. Very often a ball player's physical condition Is held responsible for a streak of poor playing, when (t Is really a trouble In a far different quarter. Sometimes hla feelings nre hurt by harsh crltjclsm, I make It a part of my business as masseur and trulher of the team to be always In a good hu mor with (he players, and to encour age them with a little jolly now and then. I have found that all athletes need ft,' so 1 say, while perhaps rubbing a player who Is falling off In his hitting: "Well, old boy, I’m rubbing In a three- base hit now.” It pleases him, en- courages him, and shows that some body has confidence In him, and ho goes out forthwith possessed of a new courage. During the tlmo t was training Kid McCoy and taking care of him In the his fights, he would Invariably i for advice between rounds. He simply yearned to be directed, encour aged. and Jollied along. It Is so with all of them. An ounce of encourage ment Is worth a pound of abuse. Here arc the three cardinal princi ples which I should set down for the ball player who would know how best to spend his winter* so a* to be In the best shape for the work of the coming spring: First—Tnke enough exercise of general nature to cause you to eat ami sleep well, and In general, retain good sound health, without, however, being "In training." Second—Do not diet nor refrain from the use of any healthful food which agrees with you and which you en joy. Third—Loaf enough to get a little fat on your muscles, which will provide something to work off In the spring training. Cooney, a Princeton player and an All-American star.

Country Club of Pinehurst - Offers Fine Golf Program Jack Foy Posts His Side Bet, But No Staten Money Shows Some time ago Jack Foy, the At lanta pugilist, challenged Harry Sta ten, the Fighting Grocer, also of At lanta, for a bout. On Wednesday Joe Elllotte, manager of Staten, came to The Georgian office, accepted the challenge on behalf of his man, stated that any conditions Were agreeable, and that he would Cover any side-bet from S100 to 1500 Which would be posted by Foy, He closed bis remarks with the statement, “It Is up to Foy. Money talks." • Thursday morning Manager Ventura, who looks arter Foy a Interests, posted 1200 with the sporting editor of The Georgian as the Foy aide-bet. Mr. Elllotte, who was present at the time, stated that he would cover the bet with cash or a certified check at 2 p. in. But at 2 o'clock Mr. Elllotte did not show up He stated to Foy, however, that If 'he could not be there at that time he would be at a certain centrally located cigar store at S o'clock Thursday night. Staten kept that appointment, hut Elllotte and the certified check did not show up. It Is now up to Elllotte. In the words of 8. Ventura. "He said 'Money talks.' Well, we're listening.” The meeting between Foy anil Sta ten Thursday night was not entirely satisfactory, as the two men could not agree to terms. Foy wants to hit In the clinches and the breakaway.

I want to flghth him and would accept any con ditions, but Ventura la strong tor those conditions and I am In hts care. ’ Manager Ventura said, "We want to give the public a light, not a hug ging match. That is what the people want.” Just at present both men are hang ing back and waiting for some club to come forward with an offer of a purse. When they do, no doubt El llotte will post that certified check he spoke of, and that Staten will agree to Foy’s demands for a "light ull the way.** In the meantime Foy wants It un derstood that he can make the welter weight class with all ease, and that he will take on any writer-weight In the country, If the conditions are right. The reason that Foy has done most of hts fighting In the middle weight class was because he could not get any of the welters to tackle him.
