Allcorn, a submarine commander during the big conflict, is an ace thistle skipper in the new Lake Lanier Sailing Club. He adheres to that profound observation made by a renowned philosopher In Southern Opener I 1 named Bear Bryant that winning beats anything which comes in second. And Sunday afternoon the Allcorns wife Dee and daughter Nancy serve as crew won their first race on the new Lake Lanier course.

They were so far out front that the rest of the field looked like Silky Sullivans with sails. "Why don't you be sociable and let's sail together some Sunday," Eddie Golden hollered to the Allcorns. "I had to regain my ego," replied Allcorn who had finished second in the previous two races. The Allcorns are Just one of numerous families who spend pleas ant weekends sailing at Lanier and Allatoona. a new sport in this area, the sailing fad is Outlar em first place scramble, were rained out for the first time in 61 games here Monday night Manager Rube Walker has nominated lefty Gene Snyder (1-3) and right-hander Jim Harwell (5-2) for the delayed double-header series openers against Memphis Tuesday night.

Lefty Leroy Gregory (5-6) will hurl the 7 p.m. (Atlanta time) opener for the Chicks. Righthander Bob Sadowski (3-3) is pilot Joe Schultz choice for the nightcap. Walker, his Crackers victorious in 13 of 16 games, was not happy but was unperturbed about the rainout that delayed his team's first engagement at Hodges Field. "We're going good and hate to have a postponement," he said.

"We won't worry about it though. "I'm proud of this club. The boys think they can win enough on this tough road trip (eight games in six days) to be on top or close to it when we return to Atlanta. I do, too."

a Maloney was thankful he got his game together -in time to short-circuit Shippey's bid for the first upset of the tournament. "That Shippey. is a real fine tennis player," said Maloney. "I've been, on the circuit two years now and I think that bit of experience helped me beat him. He knows every trick in the books and he's tough, mighty tough," The tide began to turn when Maloney.

Always happy to be aboard a winner whether at the track or lake, I readily accepted an invitation to board the Allcorn thistle after the race. Mr. Sinny Sinclair of Marietta, one of the sportsmen introducing thistles to Atlantans, took over the steering and Allcorn expounded on the new club. The 'Sailers' Kicked Off in the Snow After hitching up a thing he called a spinnaker, Allcorn ex-plained that we had more than 300 square feet of sail going for us, in addition to a fine breeze. The infant Lanier Club is an offspring of the Atlanta Club at Allatoona, and for a spell the two groups weren't overly friendly.

Now, however, they compete in meets, and a race Is scheduled at Lanier next Sunday. Allcorn pointed out during our cruise that only last February the present and picturesque site of the Lanier Club was only a pine thicket two miles from Flowery Branch. They still have a lot of rowing to do, but the fleet was launched from the new docks several weeks ago. You get an idea of enthusiasm these sailors have for their sport when you consider that Allcorn, Club Commodore Vernon Pickering and associates started work last February when snow was on the ground. It's remarkable the progress they've made in such a short "We're real pleased with the Interest displayed by members," Commodore Pickering advised after we docked the thistle.

"You'd be surprised at the number of people who have moved to Atlanta who are sailing enthusiasts." Pickering speaks with authority on the topic, for he's a native Miamian who can't recall just how long he's been sailing. A Man Who Proved His Point The commodore and his hospitable group Invited me to hoist sailf and enter into upcoming competition. However, I tactfully explained that I am partial to houseboats. That's about as close to the water as I care to get. Then, too, you don't have to unhitch such things as jibs, spinnakers, etc.

It's much easier merely to switch off the motor. However, the club just happens to have room for a few more mates in his fleet. If you're interested Commodore Pickering is listed in the phone book: BL. 54197. After saying so long to the "sailers" I motored down the lake to Mr.

Jack Beachem's Holiday Marina. As Mr. Beachem is prone to mention from time to time, it is the "largest floating marina" in the land. Some three years ago when Beachem started searching for funds to build his establishment, numerous citizens mumbled that he had rocks in his head. Now, quite a few of the same citizens are parking boats in his lot.

In fact, Mr. Beachem is faced with the kind of problem all businessmen enjoy. He has more business than he can handle. More than 400 boats are docked at Holiday and new applications are received daily. Mr.

Beachem has nifty parlay going for him. He sells boats, rents docks, supplies fuel for thirsty engines and operates a store and restaurant for hungry customers. Over the course of the summer he accommodates thousands of visitors. In fact, Mr. Beachem proved long ago that he definitely has something more than rocks in his cranium.

He breezed through Atlantan Al Pick, 6-0, 6-0, and made it look ridiculously simple. Matter of fact, only two seeded players met more than what would be considered normal first-round opposition.

South African John Maloney, sixth ranked, needed every shot in his youthful arsenal to survive his match with 45-year-old Larry Shippey, one of the real competitors in the game. Maloney won 7-5, 6-4 after Shippey led 4-1 in the first set and 2-1 in the second. Young Pierre Howard Jr. of Decatur fought like a cornered tiger before bowing to fourth- seeded Francois Godbout of Canada, 6-3, 8-6. Otherwise, top seeds had their way.

Miquel Olvera, (No. 3) of Ecuador stopped Harry Jones, 6-3, 6-1; John Powless (No. 5), FSU tennis coach, beat Dave Sibert, 6-0, 6-1; Harry Hoffman (No. 7) whipped Walter Urjel, 6-1, 6-1, and Ron Sussman (No. 8) mowed down Julio van Kerk-hoven, 6-3, 6-3.
