Boxers Demands Not Justified Regarding Weight
*s*
No Rifles Which Make Exact P0nndaQp NeceSsarv


O HYLOCK'S demand Tor A
pound Of flesh to be carved
from Antonio's cardiac region
was but slightly more reprehensi-
Bile than the weight eXactions Of
some modern boxers. Kid Shylock
was apparently actuated by de-
sire TO bring about the rapid dis
solution Of Young Antonio, ana,
while the boxing Shylocks Of the
present merely restrict opponents
to a specified weight at a certain
hour, yet the frequent result is
the pugilistic undoing Of the vic
tins Of the unfair stipulations.
il Is an established fact that Joe
Cans death was due to loss of vi
tally resultant from excessive re
duction of flesh at the dictation OF
Battling Nelson, and the health OF
many other boxers has been ruined
by taking off so much flesh in prep
aration for bout that nature has
rebelled.
The remarkable feature of this
pernicious practice is that the box
ers who habtualy seek to weaken
opponents by weight restrictions
have no basis of right eithcr by
rule or precedent for their out
rageous demands There is not in
either tho OVccns3erry or London
rules s.l'sble prescribing the
weiga;s a. which boSers shall meet
for championships in the various
classes. Therefore, BOXERS have no
alternative except TO be guided by
precedent which gives a black eye

Catcher-Dilgcr, Birmingham. 1898

This. b. the way, wouldn't be a
bad team. Often the team that
leads the league in fielding is way
off on hitting. but Welchonce,
Johnson, Schwartz, Hight and
Wares all batted over PTS.
The record of Johnson, the Mont
gomery outfielder, was really mar
velous. The man played in "a
games in the outfleld and didn't
make an error. He had 80 chances
in that time. More than that, he
batted 800.
1t is doubtful if all Southern
league history will show man who
played in Ga games. did not make
an error and batted $40.

1t will be observed that only one
Birmingham man appears in the
team of star ielders and only one
among the punk fielders. All of
which goes to prove the contention
that Birmingham won with a team
of mediocre ability-that played up
to its limit.
OF course, the main thing in
picking an all-star team is the
batting. Here is how an organiza-
ton would work out. picked ex-
clusively for batting ability:
First baseman - McGilvray,

Note that three of the players
named are Atlantans.
The excellence of Harry Bailey's
batting average is a pleasant sur
prise to Atlanta fans. The unoffi-
cial averages, generally, gave him a
lower mark. The Cracker outflelder
stood second in the Southern
league among the men who played
in 100 or more games. The only
man who topped him was the
league leader Welchonce. Of Nash
Vile. Harbison's showing was also
excellent, as was Alpermans. These
men proved heavy hitters, espe-
cially for infielders.
Tt HE matter of picking the real
all-Southern league team for the
season is not difficult. with the dope
at hand. Here it is:

An Announcement

The headquarters committee OF the League re-
grets exceedingly to announce the resignation OF Mr.
E. A. Scrogin from the SUPPLEMENTARY of the
League. Mr. Scrogin has had commercial oppor-
tunites presented him which he feels he could not
in justice to his family pass BY and having given six
years of heroic sesacri6cing service to the League
five of these years in the office Of legislative supern
endent and year in that of the general superin
tendent, the committee could not urge him to remain
under the continued heavy sacrifice that was newt
able.
The committee is happy in announcing the ap-
pointment of Rev. F. Scott Mcbride the position of
acting state superintendent. Mr. Mcbride is fully
conversant with the work of the League, having
ed as district superintendent of the very important
Springfield district and for the last few months the
assistant state superintendent The work. therefore,
suffers no check, but goes steadily forward the
same sound policies that have characterized Our
progress
The committee also takes great pleasure in
nouncing that although Mr. Scrogin relnquishes the
official position of state superintendent he will be in
a position to give himself exclusively to the
Legislative campaign
AS already noted, Mr.. Scrogin gave five years to
this work. and for the last year has been carrying the
double burden of legislative and executive service.
His efforts from now on will be concentrated upon
the work of legislative superintendent We thus con-
serve the League this critical uncture the in
valuable help of Mr.. Scrogin.
