ATLANTA CLUB SOLD;
DOBBS IS NEW PILOT

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Gar November 3.-Sales
of the franchise and base ball park OF
the Atlanta club of the Southern AS
ISOLATION by Rel j. Spiller to the At
lanta Base Ball and Amusement Cor
poration and the signing OF Johnny
Dobbs, veteran pilot, as manager Tor 9
period of three years, was announced
here today.
MIR. Spiiler, who made the announce
ment, said the consideration was S72S.-
600 and that he was one of the eleven
stockholders of the new corporation.
Others include Robert Tyre Jones. Jr.
national open golf champion; Robert
w. Woodruff. president Of the Coca
Cola Co.; Walter r. Gambler. capitalist
and sportsman, and other well known
Atlanta business men.
Commenting on the sale, Spiller said
it will be of great benefit to Atlanta.
No officers nor directors for the new
corporation have been elected, but Mr..
Spiller said q meeting for that purpose
probably would be held during the COM
ing week.
Dobbs is one Of the best known man
ayers In the Southern Association and
has had marked success in winning
pennants. He piloted the Birmingham
club during the past season and after
winning the Southern League nag, top
ped 1t with a victory in the post-Season
series with Dallas of the Texas League,
marking the second time that South
ern club had won the play-off for the
championship of Dixie.

Straight Off Tee

n n RS. FRANK r. KEEPER and
I'M Mrs. John N. Hodges are to
NV meet on Thursday In an l8-
1 i hole final round to decide the
women's championship of the
Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country
Club. Mrs. Keefer won the first flight
I'm the tourney played last week, in
which Mrs. Hodges did not play. and
win meet the Midatlantic title holder
the qualifying round With q score of 81.
Mrs. Keefer beat MRS. j. L. O'Rear in
the final of the first flight.
Two local clubs are to have golf
courses next year which will have ap-
pearances far different from those of
this year. At Congressional the work
of reconstructing the traps is going en-
and will continue throughout the WiE-
ter. with the thought that the over
hanging lips will be entirely removed
for next season, and that with these
and other changes the club will be in
stronger position to bid for the wom-
ems national championship for 1881.
At Columbia the work of building a
new ninth green Is ready to start, and a
new green for the first hole already
has been built while the new twelfth
tee is practically ready for play. A new
tenth tee Is also to be built, which will
change the method Of play to the hole
next year.
Over at Washington there is some
doubt whether the changes proposed
for the seventeenth hole will oc started
during the Winter, and also whether
the seventh green will be rebuilt and
raised at the back-the latter change
which the green's committee realizes
would make q better hole, but which
would involve considerable expenditure
and the moving Of an immense amount
of dirt.

TECH and Western elevens will
come to grips Tuesday in the
Central High School Stadium in
L. a public high school champion

of more than usual interest here. Ell
forts are to be made by George Wash

son game shifted to Friday. The Co
lonial Cubs we're scheduled to engage
the st. Johns College Junior varsity
of Annapolis Friday, but upon the re-
quest of the latter the game has been
Cancelled.
Western is preparing for a desperate
stand against Tech. The Georgetown
scholastics are considered to have a
chance to halt Hap Hardell's proteges
in their flag dash. Should the McKin-
ley eleven get by Western it will have
only Business to play to win the I'M
disputed championship, and though the
Stenogs may be able to present some
what stronger lineup as the result of
the addition Of players expected to be
gained by the advisory scholastic marks,
which are effective tomorrow, they are
not thought to have the slightest
chance to stop the Maroon and Gray.
1t is Westerns hope that it will be
able to present its strongest front
against the Mckinley team. The Red
and White expects to have the serv-
ices of several capable players VINO have
heretofore been ineligible because of
failure in their studies. Notable in this
group Is Eddie Brownf1eld. fast and
experienced halfback Brownfleld has
an injured shoulder, but at that prob
ably would prove a valuable addition
to the Western backfield, giving it three
stalwarts behind the line, Jimmy
Draper sand Ray Willard being the
others.
Other valuable players who may be
declared eligible to play for the Red
and White are Webb, halfback; Grieve,

 Shircs made his bow at the White City Arena last night and spent just , seconds of his first fight for profit in laying low Dangerous Dan Daily, Cleveland youth, who al5o vas making his initial appearance as a professional heavyweight.
 After tho bout Promoter Jim Mul- lon told Shircs his next opponent would bc George Ira fton. huge cen ter Of the Chicago Bears Of the Ma tional pro football league. But Charles Arthur noisily and firmly refused the assignment.
 NO more punk fighters get any free publicity through me- Was Shires' ultima um. "L want the best or none. Get Tunncy out of retire ment for me"
 The Great One was only mildly stirred by his quick victory and the circumstances surrounding the show. It drew a capacity crowd of around i 5000, with gate receipts Of approXi- mately 5000.
 Big crowd?' Shircs asked
 ''Whal's 5000 people when 55,000 used to turn out to see me play the Yankees.'
 Shircs had plenty of competition 1 from Daily until the finish occurred. ! They answered the bell by charging l into each other throwing punch es 1 from everywhere.

Grccnstcin and Lawson took the lead away from the Mag Hawks in "Y" 1U1 doubles handball league hy winning over the Rochc-Eosonherg team last night hy the score of 5S to 43.
 Only two moro weeks remain for tournament matches. with six teams having almost an equal opportunity 10 win first houors. The matches this week and next promise 10 be full of action.
 Maurice Rosenberg of the team of Roche and Rosenberg. predicted that before his match last night against the Lawson -Grccnstcin combination they would score at least 7j points. They were very fOrtunHt" to garner 13 points. Anyway. handboIl is q funny game. your good when your good, and when you ar" t,rribI" you might as well call it q day and wait until NOu are right.
 The Mag Hawks arc keeping their weather eye open on their pcsSbili- ties now that the Rosenberg Roche team has taken beating. Th"r" still remain one or two teams to bc heard from when thc Angel Gabriel blows taps over the final match.
 Tho annual Y open doubles tour namcnt is duo to start on J@nuarE 9th with au "A and "B' league functioning. Many of the old timers will team up for these classics and many of the fans expect to sec the old time team of Dunn -Mangan talk ing the court floor for action.
