GAMBLING ON BALL
 GAMES WILL HAVE
 TO BE CURTA|LED
Southern League President Comes Out Against All Forms of Betting on
 National Game
By BOB PTGUE

Gambling in Southern league ball parks, which has long been one of the leeches which suck nt the vitality of the national game in Dixie, is to be materially curtaiIed and stamped out if possible during the coming season if President John DoneIson Martin of the Southern association is given the proper co-opcrRtion of the eight club owners.
 For the past several seasons the gambling evil has been steadily grow ing, with the unhappy result that dur ing the late lamented season the bet tors formed a large part of the patron age at the different parks. There was not city ill the league which was not infested by the gambling element, and I in some of the association towns open betting could be seen by anybody who tcok the trouble to look.
 Some of the club owners have hired special policemen to watch for the gamblers and to march them off to jail by way of showing the gamblers that they would not be able to get by with their tactics in southern league parks. In several cities some of the leading gamblers were taken in by the park coppers and haled before the judge, who promptly turned them loose. The result was that in the various

In the two weeks in which I have been the publicity representative of the receiver of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company I have had some amusing experiences and others not amusing but Illuminating.
 The morning after Mir Bradley pub lished the order announcing my ap- pointments, a friend of mine took off my hat and ran his fingers over my noble dome of thought.
 What are you doing?" I asked
 Feeling for your horns," he replied. Aren't you the goat?'
 What 1 said to him is immaterial, but do want to say in print that many citizens have taken occasion to say to me that MT. Bradley was right in creating a publicity department; and not a few of them have expressed d kindly sentiment for the company. So, my experiences so far have been pleas ant, and I feel they will continue to be pleasant. They confirm nay belief that the spirit of fair play is inherent in the American people. They are al ways willing to look at the other side.
 The publicity department is not in tended to be sinecure nor a safety valve. It is MT. BradIey's, and also MT. Pevear's, open door to the public.
 There has unquestionably been a marked improvement in car service. This dates after the heavy snowfall in the early part of last month, and there

AUBURN DEFEATED
 BY ATLANTA TEAM

Auburn. February S.-(SpeciaL)-At- lanta Athletic club tonight defeated the Auburn basketball squad in one of the best games ever played at the historical old institution by a score of 36 to 26. It was thriller from start to finish, Floyd and Wade starring for Auburn, while Bass and Cooke grabbed off most of the honors for the visiting five.
 The game was fer the championship or the south, and up to the end of the first salf it was a toss-up as to who would be the winner. In the last of the first half the score was 19 to 10 when Wade, who had been doing the greatest work for Auburn, was taken out of the game on account of Wrenched knee. After this, when Nc. Fadden was substituted for Wade, the Auburnites went to pieces and the At lantans piled up lead of 1s points which they held when the gong sounded
 Patterson of Montgomery refereed the game.

GREENSBORO

Greensboro, February S.-(Special)-A record history-making smoker was given last night in the Greensboro opera house in the form of a get-to- gether meeting. at which ways and means were discussed for the opening of a non sectarian military school at the old Southern university plant.
 Greensboro has never attended a more enthusiastic and elegant entertainment than this, when covers were laid for 100 guests. Joseph H. James presided and acted as toastmaster, and that noted ed ucator, Col. w. D. Fonville of Tusca- loosa, president of the new institution, was guest of honor.
 Stirring speeches were made by Colonel

 The complete establishment of the school is in sight and it was clearly dem- orstrated that the enterprise has the en- thusiastic support of the representative citizens of Greensboro, and the school will open next fall.

 smoker. They are: Judge w. c. Chris tian, chairman; Cadwallader Erwin, sec retary; T. Bestor Ward, Joseph H. James, C. E. Powers, l.. J. Lawson, cashier Peoples bank; J. A. Blunt, president First National bank; c. Y. Stollenweick, J. G. Apsey.

 DESIRES NO EVIL INFLUENCE
 With baseball due to come back strong this season, it is the desire of President Martin of the Southern to start the Sunland major off under the most favorable and promising condi- tions and circumstances, and it is with this object in view that he hopes to curtail perceptibly, if not completely stamp out, the practice of gambling in the eight parks in the Southern league.
 Just what plan the league president is going to adopt to bring about this badly needed reform Is not known, as he is not tipping his hand, but it is safe to state that he will work out a campaign of action contemplated to free the association of this evil, which has long been in existence.
 The staff of umpires for the South ern league during the 1919 campaign Only one of the old guard, Dan Pfen- ninger, is at present signed up. Presi- dent Martin says he is still trying to arrange the plan for having four wounded soldierboy players as um- pires on the bases, but has received only one application so far. This is a good opportunity for someone who knows baseball and who can make a good living by handling the indicator on the bases. President Martin will probably name his staff of umpires in chief by March l.
