OF GEORGIA By BILL BORING ATHENS, March 20. — Ty Cobb Jr., a husky red-head, is gaining tennis importance for a name im- mortal in baseball. The young and heavier edition of the “Georgia Peach” is a handler of athletes. But tennis—not baseball —players are his charges. He is the University of Georgia's new court coach. Bearing a striking resemblance to his famous father and proud of the competitive heart and love of sports he inherited, young Ty, how- ever, emphasizes his desire to “pay!| for his own ticket” into the sports show. Georgia elecled him tennis coach after he nad gained knowledge of the game at Yale and in tourna- ment play. To Be Doctor He captained the Yale freshman courtmen and later won a varsity ber'th. His tourney achievements in- clude the Connecticut State indoor, the Augusta (Ga.) city singles and a number of minor meet titles. A junior at Georgia, he is taking a pre-medical course. “After baseball, dad would have chosen medicine as a profession,” he declares. Cobb, besides coaching tennis, is assistant swimming ingtructor at’ EXPENDITURES ;Chairman Faulkner Pre- sents Complete Analysis of Funds to Public Report of the receipts and expen- ditures of the Juneau Slide Relief Committee, formed after the slide November 22 last year in which fif- teen lives were lost and several | buildings destroyed on Gastineau | Avenue and South Franklin Street, was made today by H.
