CP I liOM Tin: BOTTOM. Tom Mills, captain-elect of the TIHILE you can merely drive stakes in the round 40 feet apart and start to pitch, a permanent court of exact dimensions can RIGHT IN LINE FOR THESE BOYS. THE SCHEDULED horseshoe pitching tournament of The Shreveport Times is shaking a few family skeletons.

There aie quite a few disciples of the old barn yard game existing right here in Shreveport and bince first announcement of the plan to popularize the sport in this section stories of the prowess of various individuals at the game have cropped out. Joe P. Dixson, now a city commissioner, used lo dig his shoe or was it his barefoot into the turf and toe the mark in a horseshoe pitching contest years ago. They called it barnyard golf in those days, and old Dobbin furnished tin-shoes. The city commissioner has made no open announcement of his former skill in pitching ringers but while wc wore circulating in sport circles his ability with the horseshoe was learned from other sources Somehow or other you can get these fellows to talk about those matters.

This might be news to Judge E. P. Mills: it mifjht be correct and it might be wrong. The Judge has the power to defend his own cause. In one circle it was said Saturday the jurist is quite adept at tossing the iron.

It is said that he has a set of horseshoes at his home and practices regularly at the sport. In that event he would be a dangerous contender in The Times tournament. If the judge is tossing horseshoes he's probably falling back on some of his good old boyhood traits. You know horseshoe pitching dntes back to the days when young boys wore short trousers and young and old ladies had long hair, and its a great sport. Ask dad, he knows.

Grover C. Thames, city supervisor of recreation, tells of seeing Jim Rowland and a few other Shriners perform with the horseshoes. Thames says that it was at an outing a couple of years ago that he saw Rowland score a couple of ringers while pitching from the mark, and that Jim showed ability that could only be had by long and careful practice. Lieutenant "Charles Kent, of the Shreveport police force, dropped a hint that horseshoe pitching is not entirely new to him. He mentioned something about doing a little pitching back in Missouri quite a while ago.

Who knows but these quiet ones have been silently wishing for some one to start their old favorite sport on the boom that they could come out from under their cloak of dignity and frolic at the pastime. There are many, many others here who have pitched horseshoes and if you keep one ear close to the ground you will hear your neighbor discussing his ability in days gone by. "Dallaa.

UNLESS Centenary College is going to fill George Hoy's vacant coaching berth from its present athletic staff, the officials should engage a former backfirld gridiron player for the position.

The new coach should be a man familiar with the style of play taught by Athletic Director Homer H. Norton, head grid coach. Present members of the Centenary coaching staff were linemen during their pigskin performing days. Homer "Hold-cm" Norton specialized for a while on developing linemen but when he became head instructor he also took the backfield work under his wing. Curtis Parker, assistant to Norton, and in charge of the freshman football team, was a lineman with the Arkansas Razorbacks and "Dutch" fjinion.

another member of the coaching staff, was a guard for the Centenary eleven. Nothing would be finer than to bring in a former Centenary backfield player to help teach the Gents the brand of play Homer Norton specializes in but it would be difficult at present to find that man as it has been only during the past several years that the local college started placing its players in coaching jobs. Curtis Parker is in line to step into the position next to Norton at Centenary but it is a question of whether he would be more valuable to the 'varsity gridiron squad in the position he now hold. A freshman coach, Parker is in a position to do a world of good and has done it. He has done splendid work in getting green football material ready for the 'varsity and lightened the burden of the 'varsity coaching staff considerably.

The letter from the champion follows: Many, Jan.

IS. 1920. Horseshoe Pitching Editor, Shreveport Times, Shreveport, La. Dear sir: I read with interest in The Times this morning your article calling on the horseshoe pitchers to limber vp their flippers and get ready for a tournament. This interested me.

not only because I have hai some experience as a pitcher but also because it is a bealthlul, scientilic game for old or young. This is a game that is growing to popularity in the north and in Florida, many cities having municipal leagues. Have long wished Shreveport and other Louisiana cities would boost the game and get it started in this section. My experience with the shoes includes pitching in one national tournament at Duluth. in 1927.

I pitched there as champion of this state and was so recognized by the national horseshoe pitchers' association. However, I didn't holler very loud about being champion as it didn't mean anything to be champ of a state if you couldn't find any other pitchers in it. But now I see in your proposed tournament the possibility of competition being developed. Well, competition is what I crave so I'll be "rarrin" to throw ringers with the city champ when he arrives. The more he can throw the better I'll like bins.

Yours for some ringers, SIDNEY PLOTT. That's a red hot letter! From reports already pouring in Mr. Plott should very strong competition.
