1917 TOURNAMENT
 ID BE AT R0EbUCK President Crawford Makes Announcement Locally.
 Big Meet Expected

As announced in The Age-Herald sev- eral weeks ago. the 1917 tournament of the Southern Golf association will be held in Birmingham. This announcement was made locally yesterday afternoon by George Gordon Crawford, of the Roebuck Golf and Auto club, following the re- ceipt of a telegram from President H. F. Smith, of the Southern Golf associa- tion.
 Although the exact dates for the tour ney have not been selected as yet, 1t will most probably be held next July. The last tourney was held in Dallas. where only few Birmingham players en- tered.
 The Roebuck course is considered by many to be the finest in the south. It is well over 5000 yards in length. Some of the souths greatest players have vis- ited Birmingham and all left some word of praise of the Roebuck course.
 Members of the association and follow CTS of golf in Birmingham are unanimous in the belief that the toruney will be the largest ever held by the Southern association. Some predict that the Roe buck club will be forced to accommodate over 250 golfers. while others are of the opinion that the number will not pass the two century mark.

Mobile, July 15.-(Special.) .)-Four games of baseball in eleven days is the record of the Barons and the weather man has just blown in and reported indications of rain for Sunday It rained out the old game here again this afternoon and everybody is sore on the weather man. This guy over in the West Indies who has been handing the Southern association clubs these damp knocks for week is still on the job.
 The clubs were all happy and con- tented about noon and were counting on another little game out at the re- mains of the Mobile park that was given sideswipe by the "Jimmicane" of July 5. At o'clock the announce ment came up from Coden in the shape of loud and long peals of thunder that the rain was coming. There was no long wait, for about 330 o'clock it arrived, just hard enough to flood the diamond. Manager Molesworth an- nounced that Black and Grimes would work in the double header tomorrow and Smith and Hauser will do the catching.
 Dick Robertson will open up at Bir- mingham Monday against the Atlanta team.

Entries for the junior tennis tournament. which will be started July A on the new courts of the Birmingham Athletic club, pro- vided the weather permits. continue to come in slow. although there is every prospect at the present of the tourney being a complete success. The entry list is now almost at the 20 mark, and the list should be ma terially increased before the open ing of the tourney next Monday morning, July "A.
 Some of the promoters of the tourney are strong in their belief that the entry list will yet advance to the 50 mark. which is some bet ter than the list last year. The first tourney was held last year and was a decided success. Thirty two boys were in the fight last summer in which Doc Mccoy was crowned the citys champion in the singles.
 The fight for the title this year promises to be much harder than in the initial tourney Although Me- Coy had a hard fight to win the honors he clearly outclassed every thing In the tourney. This year he will find much stronger and able competitor. Two of the youngsters

that are expected to give him his hardest fight are William McWane, champion of the Young Mems Christian association. and Hewitt Smith, runner-up in the same tour- ney.
 McWane Is generally looked upon as the most favorable opponent for the championship. but Mccoy has a large following that believe he will successfully defend his title. The play vii be held in the mornings whenever possible. but matches may be arranged between the two opponents provided they receive the sanction of the officials.
 The play in the doubles will be held at the same time. Last year about 15 teams were entered and the list Is expected to be fully as big this year.
 Prizes have not been definitely decided upon as yet, but it is thought that the winner in the sim gles and the winners in the doubles will be given junior memberships in the Birmingham Athletic club. However, this plan may be given up and racquets given in stead.
 Entries can be made to Secretary Beavins at the Athletic club any time during the present week. A greater majority of the players wait until the last day to enter and officials are striving to avoid this rush by getting the youngsters to qualify at once.

Brown, besides being a great football player, was also mamstay on the Vandy track, base ball and basketball nine and won fame over the entire southland for his all around athletic performances.
 Brown will specialize on football, where he will have nine letter men to return this fall He will leave for Bir mingham near the first of September and will take the football brigade into the country for three weeks camp before the beginning of the football schedule.

for the coming season and will have strong competition Brown is rated as one of the best fighters that ever played in Birmingham. He under stands the game thoroughly and knows plenty of football and is capable of putting the real gridiron stuff into his teams.
 It is believed that the Methodist authorities have landed a valuable man in Brown. He is the successor of Coach Pinson, who resigned at the close of the past term.
 None of the officials of the Metho- dist institute could be located yester- day afternoon or last night to confirm the story, but the report was well re- ceived by alumni of the institute and given credence in all quarters.
