its proud place in the educational
work of the South. Today, with au-
spicious surroundings. and in the
presence of distinguished company,

university that died for It's country,
and has been resurrected. 1t was
founded in 1882. flourished until the
Civil War. persisted with the Confed-
eracy. and is now being rebuilt at
Atlanta on a two million dollar basis.
The old Ogiethorpe was the alma
mater of manly, distinguished men,
including Sidney IAnier. one of the
six immortals of American literature.
and by many regarded as the most
brilliant of the six. For this reason

day. was distinguished by selecting

brating the history of the old and
dedicating the new university.
The executive committee of tho
Board of Directors selected Mr.. Ben

ginia on this occasion, and the FOL

FROM THE SUPERBAS
Ebbets Settles Wrangle Over
Salary Question by Releas'
ing Pitcher.

Edward Reubach. the pitcher who
used 20 start so many games and finish
so few for the Superbas, will not be
with the Brooklyn club this season.
Charles H. Ebbets notified the player
yesterday that his services would not
be required.
Reuibach has been holding out for
an advance in salary. and the Brooklyn
owner in order 20 settle the contro-
versy. has released the player.
The records show that Reulbach won
II games last season and lost Il. As
a college pitcher, first with Illinois and
later with Vermont, Reulbach made
great record. He was also sensa-
ton with the Cubs. and led the Ma
tional League in 1906 1907 and 1908.
Reulbach always has been active in
the affairs Of the Players Fraternity
and at present is secretary Of the or

Action of State Athletic
Commission in Refusing
TO Grant License
Point a. Issue.

Justice Cohalan, OF the Supreme
Court, reserved decision yesterday af-
ternoon in the mandamus proceedings
brought against the State Athletic
Commission, which controls boxing un-
der the Frswley law in this state, on
behalf Of the Manhattan Athletic Club.
The athletic club was represented by
FRANK c. Hayden, while Robert p. Bey
er, Deputy Attorney General, defended
the commission.
The court impressed it upon both
attorneys that the point az issue was
whether or not the State Athletic Com
mission had acted within the bounds
of its discretion, as authorized by
law, or was arbitrary and caprlclous
in refusing TO grant the license applied
for by the club. When both sides had
been heard Justice Cohalan called for
he briefs and reserved decision.
The attorney for the commission de-
clared that Eddie and Jess Mcmahon
were the real promoters OF the club
and were the persons directly interest
ed in securing this license. he de-
clared that charges mad been made 10
the State Athletic Commission that the
Mcmahon brothers had broken con-
tracts with boxers and that they had
failed 20 make good on their bond and
IN other matters. Il was said that
since the Mcmahon brothers were the
ones who would benefit by the issu-
ance Of such a license il was not 10
the best interests Of boxing TO honor
their application.
Mr.. Hayden. on behalf of the club,
told Of alleged interviews with the
members Of the State Athletic Commits s.
sion, mentioning the dates on which
they took place. while the application
for a license received the consideration
