GET into THE GAME
Stone Mountain Boys Coming
Home Soon

Americas VIII, as expected, get in
to the game balletically in month
or two more, or about on schedule,
as compared with previous ball sea-
sons. Up at Stone Mountain school,
near Atlanta, are host of Americus
ball tossers at present in the role Of
students, and these hefty hitters are
coming home with a bunch of artists
in their wake for the vacation season.
Tommy Hooks, John Wheatley and
other scintillat.ng lights of the dia-
mond are up there, and will be in
trim for good work upon their return
home In fact, it is said that the en-
tire Stone Mountain team may come
to Americas for vacation, in which
event, strengthened by local celebri-
ties of the old Champs stock, the
team will be the equal of any IN
South Georgia, either in or without
the professional class.
