GOLF RESTRICTION
TO BE CONSIDERED
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.—At the coming
i annual meeting of the National golf
j and tennis association efforts will be
made to further clarify and strength
en the rules governing the conduct
and action of players who pose as
amateurs in these sports in keeping
with the n.ew code adopted at the re
cent conference of the leading sport
governing bodies in this city. While
the rules have been altered from time
to time to meet changing conditions
the impression prevails that the reg
ulations can still be impoved upon.
This is illustrated by an occurrence
.last summer which involved a prom
inent tennis authority and a business
man from the middle west. The busi
ness man, who knew nothing of ten
nis, was on an eastern trip when he
received a request from friends prom
inent in tennis circles at home to se
cure the entry of several high class
tournament players for a tourney
about to start.
He called upon the other principal
of the story and after stating his mis
sion and requesting the latter’s as
sistance explained that he was willing
tc give several hundred dollars for
expenses and a still larger sum for
the time and services of the players
named. It was pointed out to the bus
iness man that tennis was an amateur
sport and that the players were not
supposed to take money for playing.
The matter ended there but the ten
nis authority is still wondering wheth
er his visitor simply took it for grant
ed that it was necessary to offer to
pay for the services of the players de
sired or was acting under instructions
from the folks back home.
The "Baseball Roll of Honor,” which
includes players who have served for
twenty years or more, is constantly
receiving recruits. At the present
time the list includes twelve players
whose combined years of play aggre
gate 302 years. It contains the names
; of the following players, together with
1 the years in the game: Jim O’Rourke,
32; W. Hart, 28; Pop Anson, 26; Jack
.Glasscock, 26; Kid Gleason, 25; Jesse
j Burkett, 25; Roger Conner, 24; George
[Van Haltren, 24; Jake Bleckley, 24;
Fred Clarke, 23; Nick Young, 22; Ham
' ilton, 22.
Discipline is likely to be the watch
word of the Boston National League
baseball club under the direction of
the new president Percy D. Haughton
during the coming season. Haughton
as a Harvard baseball and football
player and later coach of the eleven
has always been a strong advocate of
strict obedience to training rules, in
structions and the playing code of
whatever game he was interested in.
While it is not to be expected that.
Haughton will insist that the players
oi the Boston Braves will be held
to the same degree of accountability
that prevails in college football cir
cles, it is certain that the new presi
dent of the club will insist upon an
observance of all the rules recently
laid down by former President Gaff
ney in his letter to the players, and
may even go further. With Haughton
as president and George Stallings as
manager it would appear as though
the players of the Boston club will
have to make baseball playing strictly
a business proposition in 915, or learn
that a new regime prevails in the
game.
Efforts to bring Frank Gotch and Joe
Stecher together in a bout for the
.wrestling championship, have now
reached the stage where the title-hold
er has consented to be interviewed on
the proposition. Gotch has explained
that Stecher is undoubtedly a comer
but that to date he has done nothing
remarkable and that so far as Gotch
can see there is no public demand for
him to meet the Nebraska grappler on
the mat. He explains that he has no
desire to return to the game and that
he doubts if any promoter, would offer
any such sum as he would demand for
a match with Stecher. All of which

GESTED BY PROMINENT
MEMPHIS DRUGGIST
Would Remind the Public to Prevent
Sickness by Removing the Cause
A "Mr
T. D. BALLARD
a prominent druggist of Memphis says:
“Much sickness could and would be
prevented if the people would only re
member that constipation is one of the
first causes. As a reminder, I would
suggest the slogan.
“ ‘Rexall Orderlies, the laxative tab
let with the pleasant taste.’
“I suggest Rexall Orderlies as I know
their formula and believe they are the
best remedy for relieving constipation.
They can be used by men, women or
children.”
We have the exclusive selling rights for
tins great laxative. Trial size, 10 cents.

Jeffries said in about the same words
some six years ago when it was sug
gested that he fight Jack Johnson. La
ter Jeffries signed, and the result is
too well known to need repeating.
Reports that the National Baseball
commission will be dissolved are de
nied vehemently by the magnates. The
denial was hardly necessary since the
need of a geneal governing body in
baseball was never greater than at [
present.

They’re not afraid of their goods.

TM EQUALIZATION
LAW IK FOB FIUHI
ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 3. —It seems to
be developing with certainty that a vi
cious fight will be made at the com
ing session of the Georgia legislature
on the present tax equalization law,
which was framed and placed on the
statute books by former Governor
John M. Slaton and his administration
and which has not only materially in
creased the revenues of the state, but
has in a measure lightened the burden
on the small property-holder, while
putting a more just share of it on the
Shoulders of the big land-owners and
rich landlords.
It is said here that the attack will
be a renewal of the fight of the big
land-owner, the man who owns prop
erty in large blocks in the country and
lives in town, to keep the man with
the small farm puying full valuation
lon his small land, whilst the reac
tionary holder of the big tracts be al
lowed to still sidle out with the cus
tomary valuation of $3 per acre, which
he paid so long in Georgia.
It is not believed, however, that the
fight will be successful, as it would
involve not only the tearing down of
the tax equalization law, but would
also work severe harm to the school
reforms, which are based on tax re
forms, and from which Georgia is
ust beginning to benefit.
There’s One
That’s Safe
ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 3.-According
to the figures of the state railroad
commission, the Talbotton railroad, a
ten-mile line between Talbotton and
Junction City, wins the distinction of
being the only railroad In Georgia
which during the past year has neither
killed nor injured a single employe,
passenger, or trespasser, or anybody
else.
No Order To
Serbia Or
Greece Now
ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 3.—An acci
dental but no less effective aid in the
“Keep Money at Home” movement, is
now benefiting this section in the fact
that the postoffices will no longer ac
cept money orders destined either to
Serbia or Greece.
The postoffice’s only reason for this
is that it cannot make delivery owing
to war conditions.
The practical result is to keep thou
sands of dollars monthly in Georgia
which would otherwise be sent to the
old ocuntry.
In this state and in surrounding
states, there are thousands of intel
ligent, hard-working Greeks and na
tives of the other Balkan states, who
are not only becoming property own
ing citizens, but who at the same time
are sending small money orders home
regularly to relatives or family in the
old country.
For a time, at least, they will now
have to keep all their surplus money
here.
HIGH GREEK 15
VISITING HERE
The arrival here of Rev. P. Coborris,
of Wheeling, West Virginia, was a
complete surprise to the entire Greek
colony in Americus. Rev. Coborris is
the head of the Greek Orthodox church
in Wheeling and his community “Ap
oialypsis,” is a model for the Greek
churches all over the country.
Rev. Coborris was directed to tour
the country and to ascertain the con
dition of his countrymen in America.
He reports the affairs of the Greeks as
being in very good shape and finds
them much in love with this country.
Rev. Coborris will be a visitor for sev
eral days.
