Sporting Editor, Georgian:
Dear Sir: "A" one team; b, an
other. a kicks from one-yard line
toward BIS" goal Ball goes fifteen
yards, bounces back across goal, and
"A" can not touch it until "B" has. and
b didn't touch it until it crossed the
line, then fell on it. Please render de-
cision.
This occurred in game at Emory
No decision was made except that "B"
was given ball on one yard line
Il. b. NJ
1t seems incredible that a ball could
bound back fifteen yards after a kick,
but anything is likely to happen when
a football hits the ground, so it is pre-
sumed that the ball bounded back with
out touching players of either side In
this case it was clearly a touchdown
for b" If the players of the "A"
team had chance to fall on the ball
before it got over the goal line and
didn't. they pulled a bone and cost
themselves a touchdown.

HEAVY
LINE FEARED IN
JACKET CAMP

With the opening signal practice Mon
day afternoon at the flats, the Yellow
Jackets started on their last month of
football, and if they can finish the month
with an even break, they will have done
wonderfully well this season, considering
the nucleus" of old men and the small
amount of material to be drawn from.
Next Saturday they will go up against
their old time rival, Auburn, and from all
indications this is not the year for the
Jackets to sting the Alabama boys.
Last year was the opportune time and
but for lucky catch of a forward pass
by Newell, an Auburn substitute, Tech
would have come out on top
Last year Tech gained more than a
hundred yards more ground than Auburn,
was penalized more and punted for the
most number of yards yet the game went
the other way
Tech has plugged up these little def
Gent points, but can they carry the ball
down the field this year as they did last
year? Can Techs light ends break the
onslaught of Auburn's magnificent inter
ference?
Last year Patterson. on all Southern
choice for two years, backed up the line
for Tech with 100 pounds of as good man
as there was in the South.
Goree. an all Southern man and a bril-
liant player played a side back and
helped Patterson in stopping Auburn S
line bucks.
Sanchez, an extra good player of 1855
pounds, played one defensive end. with
Thomson and Black playing the other.
These men were four year men. all weigh
ing more than 10.
Take a glance at the defensive men
this year. Hutton backs up the line. He
is a good low tackler, with plenty of
nerve and a good head; but-weighs 16S
and his first year on varsity
This is but one instance, but Tech has
never gone into a game with colors droop-
ing, and dope is worthless when calculat-
ing on a team that has an unknown
quantity of never die spirit. and the
score may be different from what seems
the inevitable.

Twenty-Five Greatest Southern League Players
No,b---Daubert, Kicked Around Dixie, Big ShowStar

Daubert reported, but there was
a mountain in his way.
Tim Jordan had for several sea-
sons been occupying first base for
the Dodgers, and it seemed about
as easy a task to remove Jordan
from that spot as it would be to
make Atlanta forget that Jim
Woodward ever existed. He had
smashed more fences than any
other major league player, and
was the one bright spot in the sec
ond city of Greater New York.

Daubert showed Up for practice
and Jordan's sun began to set. The

quicker. He was far more sure on
wild heaves and wonder of all
wonders, he made Brooklyn forget
that Jordan could hit.
From the minute he donned his
Dodger uniform, he forgot his
Southern league reputation as
mark for hurlers and began pound
ing the pill to fare well,
which place is located somewhere
near Armageddon, and only T. r.
knows where Armageddon is on the
map
Jordan was soon shipped TO To-
ronto, and Daubert was placed in
sole possession of the first pillow.
He is there now. He'll stay there
for several seasons, and, looking
back on the South, he probably will
murmur something about proph
ct not being without honor save on
his own stamping ground.
For Daubert, once despised in the
South, is now premier first base

When Daubert was claimed by
Cleveland. after Nashville had land
ed the pennant, the South simply
said that railroad fare was being
wasted He would have to be sent
back in a few months.
AS far as the Nap management
was concerned, the South's judg-
ment was correct. Daubert did not
stay in the Ohio city long enough
to learn that Tom L. Johnson was
that metropolis most prominent
citizen.

He was sent to Toledo, but the
Mud Hen leader couldn't see him
with a spyglass and he was put

Memphis, was in dire straits for a
first baseman. In fact, Babb was
in dire straits for every kind of a
ball player. He grabbed Daubert
up, and the left handed Jake was
once more enrolled on a Southern
ball team.
Scouts infested the section that
year. A dozen promising young
sters were scheduled to go up, but
Memphis looked so bad that few Of
them visited the Bluff City.
Old Larry Sutton took a chance
and paid railroad fare to Red Elm
park. That night he wired c. Her

truth.

z UDGE WILLIAM KAVANAUGH
in his annual report made to
> the Southern league members
each spring will declare that the
organization that he heads is about
the classiest little thing ever as
sembled under a minor league ban
ner. The sentiment will be greet
ed once a year by some hip-hi
hooray stuff from Messrs. Gala
way. Woodward, Coleman. Hirsig.
Jones. Hervey, Andrews and Frank,
who are more or less interested in
the aforementioned organization
II is the one subject on which
they agree with an unanimity that
would have been typical of a Re
publican convention before Bob La
Toilette discovered the word Pro
gressive" and T. r. snatched it as
his own most priced possession.
But it is hardly possible that
these gentlemen could grow so en-
thusiastic, even after one of those
famous Southern league dinners, as
10 rise on their hind legs and claim
that the league headed by the smil-
ing and affable Kavauaugh has it
on the American and National
leagues in class just like Sarah
Bernhard possesses talents that lit
tie Emma Bunting could hardly as
pire to.
Oaubert Was Kicked Around.
And yet it is written-and writ
ten boldly in Southern league his
tory-that Jake Daubert was kick
ed around this circuit just like
Champ Clarks houn' during the
Baltimore convention.
Jacob now is the subject of col
umns of tribute in the major league
press. Experts proclaim him the
greatest first baseman who ever
performed. The glories of Arson,
Brouthers, Carey. Tenney. Davis.
Chance-yea, even the glory of
Chase-have been eclipsed by this
star of the South.
But the fact remains that for
two seasons Mr.. Daubert remained
in these parts and there was no
weep, no wall no considerable
crashing of teeth when the news
of his purchase by Brooklyn was
published.
Daubert came South in the good
year of 1908. Chase had just revo-
lutionized first base play by his
marvellous left-han performances.
Every major league manager looked
carefully and favorably on south
paws who had any talent for play
ing the initial sack accordingly.
Port-sid infielders had suddenly
become all the rage, just like the
hobble skirt and initiative, refer
endum and recall
Gift to Bill Bernhard.
Nap Lajoie was handling the
destinies of the Cleveland club,
and he had dug Daubert from the
gloomy regions of some bush league
as a first base experiment. 1t didn't
take him more than a minute to
decide, however that George Sto-
vail was not ripe for the can, nor
Daubert for classy company.
That year Lajoie's old side kick,
Bill Bernhard, was making his bow
as q Southern league manager,
holding forth at Nashville When
Cleveland reached Nashville on the
way home to open the season. Dau-
bert was left in the Tennessee cap
ital for Bernhard to ripen and
make the most Of.
Daubert's fielding was brilliant,
though in his Southern league days
he was not d Chase by a few hun
dred Yards, to say the least And,
more than that, he seemed lament

HAS TO DO WITH SALE OF $50
LATED TRACTS
COMMISSIONER TO DECIDE
Land Owners May Acquire Adjoining
Properties When Proper
Showing is Made

The register and receiver of the
United States land office, at Lewiston,
are in receipt of circular containing
an amendment to the section in force
since June ~, 1906, regulating the sale
of isolated tracts which is as follows:
1T shall be lawful for the commits
sioner of the general land office to or
der into the market and sell at public
auction, at the land office of the dis
trict in which the land is situated, for
not less than $l.25 per acre, any iso-
lated or disconnected tract or parcel of
the public domain not exceeding one
quarter section, which, in his judg
ment, it would not be proper to expose
for sale after at least 30 days notice
by the land officers Of the district in
which such land may be situated; pro-
vided, that any legal sub division of
the public land, not exceeding one
quarter section, the greater part of
which is mountainous or too rough for
said commissioner, be ordered into the
market and sold pursuant to this act
upon the application of any person who
owns lands or holds a valid entry of
lands adjoining such tract, regardless
of the fact that such tract may not be
isolated or disconnected within the
meaning Of his act; provided further,
that this act shall not defeat any vest
ed right which has already attached
under any pending entry of location.'
The material change is found in the
first proviso, authorizing the sale of
legal subdivisions not exceeding one
quarter section, the greater part of
which is mountainous or too rough for
cultivation, upon the application of
any person who owns or holds valid
entry of lands adjoining such tract,
and regardless of the fact that such
tract my not be actually isolated by
the entry or other disposition of sur
lands. BY the amendment it
IS left entirely to the discretion of the
of the general land office
20 determine whether tract shall be
sold, and it will not be practicable to
prescribe a set Of rules governing the
which would render a tract |
to sale under the proviso.
The only requirements called for |
rom applicants for isolated land are
hat he must furnish evidence of his
ownership of the adjoining land, or
hat he hold valid entry embracing
adjoining land in connection with
which entry he has fully met the re-
Iuirements of the law, also detailed
as to the character of the
and applied for, the extent to which
t is cultivable, and the conditions
which render the greater portion unfit
or cultivation; also description of
ny and all lands heretofore applied
or under the original act of 1906. No
pplication will be entertained where
he applicant has purchased under the
ct of 1906, or its amendments, an area,
1hieh, when added to the area applied
or, shall exceed approximately 100
eres.
The provisions of the act of 1906 re-
ating to the sale of tracts actually is
lated are not changed by the amend
lent enacted.
