''Babe" Is working the local men.
Brouthers stated that he would be
able to announce his line-up by Sat
urday. at least. Everything Is now in
lend shape, the pitching staff Is all
O. K.. the fielders are Umbering up
and the bases are also well equlped.
The only reason that the line-up is
held up until Saturday is that Rroutli

changes and does not want to an
nounce it until every position Is defi
nitely decided upon.
Augusta is certainly having some
ideal baseball weather and the local
team's pilot is taking advantage of It.

ers' form on the Augusta team it can
be said that this city is going to have
some baseball team.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA.
EX-PRESIDENT’S SON WON
LONG DRIVING CONTEST
i-U-.' 1
Popular Win on the Country
Club Golf Links. Approaching
and Putting Contest Also.
The long-driving contest which was
to have taken place at the Country
Club last Saturday and was postponed
until Saturday of this week on ac
count. of the weather, was hurried up
and held yesterday. This was owing
to the numerous requests of winter
visitors who are leaving this week and
who wanted to play In the contest.
The event was won by Charlie Taft,
the 18-year-ohl son of ex-President
Taft, who out-drove everybody else
by a number of yards. Rach con
testant drove three balls and the ag
gregate distance of the three was
counted as his score. If a hall went
off the course It was counted as zero.
Young Mr. Taft drove two of his three
balls into the Bunker, which counted
250 yards, and the third within five
or six yards of the same. It was
a very popular win.
The approaching and putting con
test, booked for the same date as the
long-driving, also took place yester
day. In this women as well as men
took part. There were separate
prizes, however. The contest was
played thus: The players each played
two balls, from a little distance of
the putting green, and the scores
made with both balls were added to
gether for their count. Messrs. Blythe,
Witter and Dixon tied for first place,
each making a score of fi, 3 with each
ball In playing off Mr. Blythe again
made a fi, securing the prize.
Mrs Dixon won the ladies’ contest,
wltti a 6, and came very near It
making a 5 and beating all the men.
Mrs. Dixon made a 4 and a 2, which
was the only 2 marie yesterday. She
had a very good chance for a 3 with
the other ball, but her put stopped
just short of the hole.

It sounded perfectly awful and she

worse.
The funny part of the story Is that
