Kryl and His Symphonic Band
To Give Concert Here Mon.
t’nder thc auspices of the Geor
gia Military College, Bohumir Kryl
anJ his 45 piece symphonic band
will give a classical and popular
program at the Campus Theatre
auditorium Monday morning, No
vember 25, at 10 o'clock.
••Symphony” is no misnomer when
applied to the Bohumir Kryl band.
In point of instrumentation it is a
band with trumpets and tubas,
trombones and horns, clarinets and
piccolos but manv of its interpreta
tions ( are essential symphonic in
Kryl himself, in appearance. Is a
typical bandmaster, robust, square
shouldered, and upstanding, but in
phrasing dynamics, and tempi thc
effects he achieves from his organ
ization would be creditable to any
orchestral conductor.
In thc matter of soloists the baud
is particularly well equipped. Mr
Kryl. despite his directorial duties,
has retained his skill as a cometist
and reveals his command uf the in
strument in a fantasia by Hartman.
The program will include Wag
ner's “Tannhausei” overture, th?
“Largo” from “New World Sym-
phoity,” <Jvecture to “Mignorq'
Ravel's “Bolero,” Liszt’s second
Rhapsody and the “Blue Danube'
waltz.
Maj. Godfrey Qsterman. head of
thc G. M. C. music department,
stated today that a capacity house
was expected to take advantage of
this musical treat for Mllledgeville
The admission price is $1.00 for
adults and 50 cents for students.
from fifty yards to the edge of the
green is very rare, and is to be
greatly admired and envied, and in
a match is a very annoying oppon
ent. It is a very difficult shot and
requires a great deal of practice and
absolute concentration. For the pitch
-hot of this type it is best to use
a mashie niblick, stand with the CARD OF THANKS

in all other shots get comfort
able. and try to make the whole
xccution as natural as possible. The
club head while addressing the ball,
in a natural position, not open
and laid back or toed in. but practi
cally straight. Take the club back
slow with a firm left arm and let
the wrists become -ocked. The
wrist is quite evenly balanced
til the backswing, with very little
body movement or pivot, then with
a firm left arm swing the club
through the ball out toward the
hole.
The shot is played deliberately
not hurried or jerky. It so happens
that thc women golfers have just
good a chance to play the short
game -well as any of the male golf-
These short shots demand
strength of hand or wrist. They
„ matter of timing and touch, of
judging distances. They call for
quite a delicacy cf control. Yet few
women golfers have taken advant
age of this part of the game which
should suit them best. I think there
should be much mere attention
thc way of instruction and practice
for this part of the game. Thc golfer
who knows how to play thc chip
shot and the short pitch has greater
OFFICER’S SLAYER IS HELD IN
BIBB COUNTY JAIL
Winton Boyer, 25. Hancock coun
tv Negro and confessed slayer of M.
J Stafford, 25. Sparta motorcycle
police officer, is held in Bibb coun
tv jail for safe keeping.
Mr. Stafford was shot to death in
Sparta Sunday and Boyer was ar-
i' >ted last Sunday night. He was
delivered here at 3 a. m. yesterday
l»v heavily armed sheriffs deputies I
who <-aid the Negro had confessed j
the shooting.
Av posses of officers and citizens
i f Hancock county searched for the I
Ni^ro Sunday night a group of of- \
fieer. found him in the chimney of j
Negro house near Beulah, about'
eight miles north of Sparta. He was 1
brought directly to the local jail. I
Claims Self Defense
Royer was quoted by officers as
saying that he fired at the officer
in self defense, after the cCficers'
had made threatening moves.
Officer Stafford stopped a group
of six Negroes in a car in Sparta
Sunday aftemon, suspicious that thc.
ear contained liquor. He searched
five of the Negros, all under ar
rest. and was about to search Boyer
"hen the Negro resisted.
“Here's one you won't search." the
Negro is reported to have said as
he drew a pistol. He allegedly fired
three times and the officer d'ed al
most instantly.
Five In Hancock Jail
The Negroes fied. one in the car
and the others on foot. Five of them
"•ere arrested ir. a -*ew hinutes and
are still held in Hancock county
jail. Each of the Ncgioes held there
aided in efforts to find Boyer and
each named him as the gunman, it
was said.
The posse that found Boyer wa»
composed of J. M. Jackson, a depu
ty and formerly the sheriff; R. D.
Smith, county policeman; Charles
Wright, ccunty warden, and P. L.
Dickens. Sparta attorney.
Although armed with a pistol at
the time he was found, Boyer sur
rendered without resistance, the of
ficers said.
Authorities do not fear mob ac
tion against the five Negroes held
in Hancock county, but they did fear
violence if Boyer were held there.
He is booked In the local Jail on a
charge of murder.
Meanwhile, Judge James B. Park
went from Greensboro to Sparta
yesterday to draw jurors for a spe
cial term of the Hancock superior
court which will open Monday morn
ing to try the six men.
Attorneys Are Named
Judge Park appointed Carlisle
Giles and Marion Ennis, both of Mil-
lcdgeville, as special attorneys to
defend Boyer, facing a murder
charge, while M. E. Moate and G. I..
Dickens, sparta lawyers, were named
to assist in defense of the five other
