CHATTANOOGA, TENN. March rs
The near blizzard which struck this city
early yesterday morning rendered the day

BedeH. Meyers and Weston are work

Tech High Any one of these young
huskies can throw the shot more than 50
feet.
The next game on the Prep league
schedule is on next Tuesday. Peacock
and 6. NJ. A. will meet on the Piedmont
park diamond.
Not to be outdone by the other schools.
the students at Tech High are planning
a tennis tournament. This makes three
in all Boys High and Peacock have al
ready made arrangements for their meets,
which will be played in April.
Frank Harrison, who plays. left field
for Marist is following in the footsteps
of mis- famous brother, George, who was
the heaviest hitter at Marist last year,
and who is now playing with the Uni
versity Of Georgia nine. In the game with
G. NJ A. Wednesday Frank hit q dandy
home run over the center field wall.
Lowry. the star first sacker on the
Marist nine, is doing the catching for
the team just at present. The regular
catcher, Mahon, is out of school, but Is
expected to join the team some time
next week
This is awfully cold weather for either
baseball or track work. A few members
of the baseball teams were out for prac-
tice vest erday, but there were no men In
track suits anywhere in evidence.
There will be a good opportunity to
compare the two high school teams of the
city when Boys High plays the Stone
Mountain team tomorrow. Last Saturday
Stone Mountain trimmed Tech High, : To
. and if the Boys High bunch can get
away with a victory over the mountain
GERS tomorrow their chances will be great
~ boosted.
II seems strange that none OF the Prep
league track squads have a relay team,
relay race is one of the most exciting
features of any track meet and most
schools would not consider II a real con-
test without a relay. The Prep schools
boast of a number of speedy men and
there is no reason why they should not
have at least a four-man relay team.
Babb IS playing a good steady game at
hhlrd base for the q. NJ. 4. team this
season. He is captain OF the nine and an
old head at the game. having played
with the G. NJ. A. boys for the past two
years.
The hundred yard dash will easily be
the feature Of the annual prep athletic
meet this year. Sifford, of c. NJ. A.; AL
len. of Marist. Bedell, of Tech High, and
Lockridge. of BOYS High. are the four
men who will be entered in this event
and a neck-and-neck race can be eN-
pected with the winner coming mighty
near to the ten-second mark.

his attitude generally toward the
boxing game taat has disguised his
welI-wishers. He is condemned
particularly for the studlously
vague way IN which he refers to the
probable date Of his return to the
ring. He appears to be fencing
with the question, in fact. There
isn't a glimmer Of promise in any
thing he has to say in this connec-
ton. He is playing squarely' into
the hands Of his enemies, who have
contended all along that he would
make the most of an accident
which enabled him to grab the title
from the youngster who won II by
hard fighting and who risked it and
defended It as often as an oppor-
tunity arose.
Richie has himself to blame If
suspicion of this kind attaches 10
him. lie hasn't accomplished suf-
hcieut to warrant him playing fast
and loose with the boys of his class
and with the sporting public gener-
ally in the way he is doing. He knows
that even those who took his side
of the argument when a question
arose as 10 whether Referee Jim
Griffin was justified in depriving
Wolgast of his crown on techni-
cality were unanimous in decla %ng
that the circumstances called for
return match at the earliest posi-
bile opportunity.
