Lack of Leisure Class Keeps Atlanta Back in Amateur Sports

mess he went out of golf. The same
was true of Albert Schwartz. Just
after he won the first champion
ship he went into business for him
self and didn't show up in a tour

ten years. AS soon as he left the
leisure class he dropped back as a
golfer.
The older men of Atlanta who
are beginning to take it easy
haven't made enough progress in
golf to be dangerous The younger
men are too busy to devote time
to the game. The consequence is
that the only Albanian who has won
a championship is a man in the

If they didn't take time to play
much, These two are DR.. Nat
Thornton and Bryan M Grant.
These men have so much tennis in
them that they can play a good
game with little or no practice.
If this hadn't been true, Atlanta
would not have been heard from in
tennis championships, despite the
fact that it has a few excellent
players who can make it interest

There is small doubt but that if
DR.. Thornton gave as much atten-
ton to tennis as do some >of the
country's great players. he would

six. perhaps better.
Atlanta's tennis supremacy is

THE hope of Atlanta in golf and

for the slow development of golf

Now, it is a sad fact that you can

players unless you take EN-
young" Walter Travis it is true,
learned golf well after he had at
tanned his majority, and a few
players have learned to perform
with the racquet after they were
grown. But a good SO per cent of

Some youngsters who promise to
be stars are coming along in Al

have been handling golf clubs and
tennis racquets since they were

they will be battling to uphold the
honor and glory of Atlanta in Sec

In this younger generation will be
many, perhaps, who will be in the
leisure class-or, at least, in the
semi-leisure class. For it will take
several generations to work out Of
Atlantans that spirit of hustle that
has made the city great in business

Turkey Prepares for
Adrianople Siege

ONSTANTINOPLE, Oct 19-Five
batteries of artillery were shipped by
rail today to Adrianople, together with
a large quantity of ammunition. This
indicates that the government expects
this city to be besieged by the Bulga-
rians and Servians. There is already
a quantity of artillery at Adrianople
A telegram from Abdullah Pasha
commander of the resevists in Eu-
rope, says that the Turks have an army
in and around Adrianople large enough
to withstand an attack by a combined
force of Bulgarians and Montenegrins.
The Turkish army OF Mustapha Pa
sha, which is north Of Adrianople is
reported TO be retreating. This is re-
garded here as a strategic movement,
whose importance will be seen later.
The government is suppressing all
unfavorable news in the papers.
Reports of Turkish victories in the
Balkans were received by the citizens
with great demonstrations.
