SPORT NEWS
PRESIDENT OF THE CLUB
Mr. A. C. "Bud" Tennille, presi
dent of the Milledgevillc baseball
team, is a man who deLcrveg a let
of pra'se. From the moment a Mil
ledgeville baseball team war first
mentioned, Mr. Tcnnillc was behind
it wholeheartedly. Since the season
has h-;cn underway, he has lent
sparingly of h s efforts and of his
time to the end that this city might
put a winning ball club upon the
field. We people here in Milledge
villc should appreciate a man like
“Bud" Tcnnille. He has always con
tributed willingly to any civic or
ganization which might have sought
his aid; always he has backed G. !M.
C. and its athletic teams; and now
through, his efforts, Milledgevillc
citizens are being afforded a type
of entertainment they have not
known before, an organized base
ball team in an organized league.
Heretofore during the dull summer
months, we Milledgevillc people hav
nad little to do. but this summer
things will be different. We’ve a
baseball team to follow and support
and "Bud” Tennille is the man “to
thank. He is a public rpirited citi
zen and our hat is off to him.

TIME TO RALLY
At the present writing Millcdgc-
ville is resting in a tie with Barnes-
ville for second place, with seventeen
games won and fourteen lost. The
time is now at hand to rally for the
home stretch drive for the pennant
of the first half c canon. Columbus
is leading the league and are three
and one half games ahead of Mil
ledgcville and Barncsvillc. All efforts
must be made to win all games from '
-now until the eighth when the sea
son ends. Milledgeville has the bat
ting punch and the pitching to go
undefeated for the next ten days'.
The loss to Columbus Saturday wasj
a heart-breaker, but that tan be i
overcome bv setting down and play-,
ing winning ball. The three and one ]
half game advantage which Colum
bus has over the Blues is a big handi-
at this time of the season, but
believe the Blues have it in them
to win this pennant. Everything
hinges on their play in the next few
trnmes. They must pull away from
Barnesvillc and at the same time
crawl up on Columbus. A pennant
is what Milledgcville wants and
we've got the team upon the field
to win, so to manager Butts and the
players we say “bring home tne ba-
