GIANTS IN A WALK.

With the signing Of Pat Moran to
coach the New York Giant pitchers, It
Is generally conceded by major league
experts that the Giants Will be the one
club which will win the National league
championship In a walk this season.
They point out that the Giants will
be so far ahead of the other teams by
July that there will be no race and
that the only contest that Will be In
evidence In the old circuit will be
among the seven other clubs, who will
scramble for second place.
It is remembered that the Giants
were tht big favorites last year and
were thought to be inVinclble. They
played a great brand Of ball for a while,
when they blew and were passed by
the Chicago Cubs. who Non the Ma

Fans Getting Anxious.

Memphis fight fans are getting anx-
ious for the Winchester venue club
to reopen and many inquiries are be-
ing made as to when the doors Of the
fight club will be thrown open. Billy
Hack expects to be able to announce
~ a short time a definite date for
the opening, which should be within
the ensuing three or four weeks. Billy
is making all arrangements for the
opening and is getting a good card
lined up so Memphis boxing lovers will
get to lamp the best bill Of fights they
have seen in a long time when the
Winchester avenue club resumes.
1t Is likely that several good fighters
who have been in the army win be
given a chance to appear, for there
are a number of good men in Mem
phis already who desire to appear in
the padded arena when Hack gets
ready. Among the number Of boys who
have fought here and who want to

are under way for throwing
S(V open the doors of this pop
NNH ular fight club within a
~ short time.
Hack has been busily engaged in
the past several weeks looking over
the ground and has been in Communl-
cation with several of the leading mitt
wielders of the country. When Bill gets
ready TO open he is going to give as
p first nighter the best show lie has
ever put on.
While there is nothing definite as
yet on the program, Bill is figuring
.ion having Pal Moore, the greatest BAN
tamweight of them all, as the leading
attraction. Just who Pal will meet in
Memphis is unsettled at the present
writing, but it will probably be Earl
Puryear, the crack little miller, who
met Pal here some time ago, and who
made the Memphis lad extend himself
to get the decision. Puryear put up a
wopderful battle against Pal and made
by far the best showing. against the
Zeal boy that any fighter ever
managed to do. If they meet as the
main go in the opening day card it
is certain that they will be greeted
with a large turnout of fight fans who
saw their other bout, which was a
corker all the way.
Pal has signifled his anxiety to fight
before a home audience again and says
he desires to meet any good boy here
before he sails for Europe to again
lower the sails Of Jimmy Wilde, the
British flYweight. Pal, when he was
in Memphis several days ago, said he
never gets tired of appearing before
home folks and that the purse never
mattered to him when he was fighting
here, and that he was ready to come
back any time Billy Hack wanted
him, Hack realizes that Pal is always
a great drawing card and is planning
on matching Pal with some good boy,
probably Puryear, for the opening

ROCEKEFELLER TURNS LOOSE
100000, 900.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-John d.
Rockefeller Tuesday gave to man.
kind Christmas present of $780,
000,000-haf to the General Edu-
cational Board to raise the salaries
of college professor, and half to the
Rockefeller Foundation to aid its
work in combating disease through
improvement of medical education,
public health of medical education,
public health administration and
scientific research.
1t is estimated that Mr.. Rockefel-
ler's public gifts now approximate
$3.50, 100000.
While leaving to the General Edu-
cation Board the task of selecting
the colleges which shall receive
awards for their teaching stats and
the amounts each is to receive, Mr..
Rockefeller urges that the principal,
as well as the income, be used "as
promptly and largely as may seem
to be WISE"
The trustees of the Rockefeller
Foundation also are authorized to
utilize both the principal and income
which Mr.. Rockefeller added that if
the board Should see fit to use any
part of this new gift in prompting
medical education in Canada, such
action will be taken, according to DR..
George E. Vincent, President Of the
Foundation, who stated that, the
trustees would be asked to set aside
100000 for this purpose"
1t is known that for a long time
Mr.. Rockefeller has been interested
in the problem OF aiding teachers in
the country's higher institutions of
learning in meeting their increasing
cost of living. Among the 600 col
leges in the United States, campaigns
are under way to raise approximately
$50, 100000 for this purpose, and,
while in making his gifts, Mr.. Rock
efeller does not specify institutions
receiving share shall contribute a
sum themselves, this has been the
general practice of the General Edu-
cation Board.
Certain officers Of the General
Education Board are about to start
on trip South, when they will visit
several colleges and universities
which already have applied for as
sistance. Trevor Arnett, Trustee of
the University of Chicago, has been
elected an additional Secretary of
the board.
The board will hold its next meet
ing February 26, and it is expected
that at that time a policy for dis
tribution of the fund will be adopted.

A ROMANCE OF THE OLD SOUTH

Mrs. Emma Speed Sampson, au-
thor of Miss Minerva and Billy
Green HilI' and BILLY and The
Major" is out with a new book that
is attracting a great deal of atten.
ton. The new book is entitled
"Mammy's White Folks" and is one
of the most charming stories of the
year. Everybody who has read the
other books will want to read this
new one, which will hold their at
tention from start to finish.
"Mammy's White Folks is a ro-
nance of the South, told with the
deft humor and sympathetic under
standing that make the delightful
folk who people it's pages seem very
real.
In Nanny" the mellow old
dark autocrat Of young Doctor Wal
lace's bachelor household, Emma
Speed Sampson has created char
acter as true TO life as Billy" No
where in recent American fiction is
there to be found more appealing
and enjoyable picture of this van
ishing type OF the Old South.
With swiftly mounting interest
the narrative carries the reader
through the colorful life of "good
luck baby"-left founding on
doe Andy's" doorstep-who grows
to radiant womanhood under Nam
my's devoted care. Esther's romance
thrills with life. Mammy's observa.
tions are a fountain of philosophy
and fun But-read the story!
