LOCAL GOLFERS WIN n
FROM CARTERSVILLE

Marietta won the golf match from
Gainesville LAST Friday by two
points. The play was unusually close
and warmly contested and resulted in
Marietta winning 33 holes while
Gainesville won 81.
The Marietta players were delight
ed with the courtesies, shown them
while in Gainesville. They were
given warm welcome and sandwich
es and cold drinks were served at
the club grounds.
An invitation to the Gainesville
players to come to Marietta about
the middle Of July has been accepted
and all the Marietta players will be
required to qualify for this match.
Right here we want to suggest that
a special game be arranged between
the two Marietta ministers, who are
golfers of ability, and two ministers
from Gainesville. We know we have
the best preachers, but we want to
see if they are the best golfers.
The Marietta players who went to
Gainesville were: Fred Morris, Jr.,
George Daniel, Tommy Tompkins.
Geo. Montgomery, Z. l.. Robertson.
DR.. Parkinson, Arthur Beall, A Bar
I'LL, Fred Morris, Sr., John Boston.
Will Neal, Ed Groves, Judge Morris.
These players were just picked with
out qualifying by play and managed
to win on strange grounds. We hope
that with players selected by match
play and on our own course Marietta
can win by a better score.

NEW COMPANY FOR MARIETTA
II VOLUNTEERS ARE CALLED

There was meeting held at the
Court House Thursday night TO see
if military company was to be form
ed in Marietta.
Capt. Fred Morris an old military
man, explained to the large number
present that a petition signed by a.
bout 90 young men had recently been
presented tc him, asking that he re-
organize the Marietta Rifles and
take the command of it.
Capt. Norris explained that he had
investigated the situation and had
learned chat there was no opening
for a new Company n the National
Guard at the present time and that
in view of the fact that there prob
ably would not be a call for volun-
teers until all the National Guard
companies had been recruited to
maximum strength, and that very
likely there would not be call for
volunteers soon. Several present
gave their names for new com
pany to be equipped as machine
gun section while Others signifie~
their intention Of joining the com
anies in Atlanta.
Capt. Norris explained that the
provisions of the new army bill pass
ed June 3rd and that it required SER
vice at any place where the President
saw fit 20 SEM the company and car
ried a. three year enlistment and
three years in the reserve corps, there
were several present who decided to
await the call for volunteers.
In thes event there is call for
volunteers there is a sufficient mum
Der on the lis. in the hands of Capt
Morris to form a new company.
