SAY ATLANTANS

golf clubs when he wns four. Last

the finest golf swing I over saw
In a youngster" and remarks that
ho alreadys "knows how to hit

military planes.
. Johnson has supervised con
struction of a wido variety of air

years, is booming in the land of
the setting sun again.
Where 'one track the Agua
Call en te, Mexico, Jockey club

hold regular ; meetings, and there
is more than idle chatter con
cerning the possibility of three
more. . ;
The Tanforan oval near . .Del
Monte, opened up last fall, made
a test cae of the California law
regarding wagering on races, and
won. It now operates two run
nings a year. .
With Nevada "opening kup"
again, a track at Reno soon 'will
resound with hoof beats,. Plans
are under, way for a pretentious
new plant.
Plans are being discussed for
the building of another track
near San Francisco; one at San
Diego to; compete with the Agua
Caliente -races below the border,
and another near Los Angeles. -
To meet Increased' competition,
Agua Caliente has declared' that
