Pelicans Crippled by the Loss of Two Stars-Vols Lose Services of Kauff- man-Chicks Gain on Bar
 Ons for Fifth Place

Atlanta, July 22.-As a re-
 suit of playing changes brought about by the acquisition of new
 men or accidents to league
 stars stars, Southern associa-
 tion critics, in many instances,
 have abandoned early season
 predictions and are readjust-
 ing themselves for a new fore
 cast on the final stretch.
 Developments of the past few days have caused many experts to cast aside
 views, which fortnight ago saw the i race neck and neck struggle between
 Nashville and the New Orleans Peli- cans. Now they insist upon including
 Atlanta and Chattanooga Even Bir-
 mingham and Memphis are talked of i'll connection with the remainder of
 the struggle.
 And the developments which have caused this shifting of opinion have been
 the crippling of Nashville and New Or
 leans, the strengthening of the Atlanta
 Crackers and the steady game of Chat tanooga and Memphis
 Two Pelican regulars-Infielder Stans- bury, Outfelder Allison-are on the sick or injured list. Nashville must forego
 the services of Kaufman, perhaps until the end of the season, the big first base
 man being injured in a game with the | Lookouts. New Orleans has broken even
 on the play this week, getting two out of four, but the Volunteers have lost two
 out of three.
 The signing of Infelder Reilly 1915 Pe,- ican, who New Orleans critics say should have come back to New Orleans from
 Brooklyn instead of going to Atlanta, has put the Crackers back in the running with five victories out of the last seven l games played. Chattanooga is still bat ting fercely to better the third position the Lookouts have taken firm hold on, while Memphis Chickasaws, despite the 1 illness of PlayerManagcr Moriarity, have taken four out of five games in the last | five days, crowding close to Birmingham l for fifth place.
 The Gulls after an excellent showing 1 against New Orleans, have found trouble 1 with the Crackers. Birmingham and Lit tie Rock both have slipped back a few i points.

answer: Concentrate your mind on one thing and it is certain to develop. The concentration that is required in golf broadens a mans mind and it's concern tration that one finds essential.
 When one enters the game of golf you immediately concentrate your mind on one thing, golf You cannot think of anything else and you don't want to. There Is no mechanism in the game. You must think because every shot in the game is different, every situation, no matter how thrilling, is different, There is that coordination between mind and muscle that requires a man to be alert every minute of the time. Golf teaches one to go about the duties of life with more snap and power. There Is a feel ing of satisfaction and elation over good accomplishment in golf that att taches to no other sport that know of.
 Golf also takes one away from the stuffy office the close apartment and out into the open fields, the sunshine and the fresh air. person in this world wishes to excell and everyone de- sires to defeat his fellow at something or other. Golf opens brain cells that men seldom utilize; 1t spells success. Let the person of today endeavor to fathom the follow through problem and he has a puzzle on his hands that is more fasci- hating than is anything presented on the billiard table or ball field Just try it once and seei
 When taking up golf do not try and "kill' the ball Get direction first, then distance and if you master these two things, the rest of the game will come with ease.
 The game of golf brings one into con- genial and refined company; develops the muscles of the body and, above all tempts one into the sunshine and fresh air. The exercise essential to golf has little ten- dency to over-exertion, but it does have a tendency to steady the nerves and to curtail bad habits. One cannot smoke and drink to excess and become a master of the golf course and every player longs to ultimately master the game and show his or her skill.
 The game of golf is becoming moro and more popular. It is being played in rural communities where, 10 years ago, the game was unknown. It is benefi- cial game and one that can be readily taken up in almost any community. Learn golf
