WHITNEY ROBBED IN
FIGHT WITH O'KEEFE

pressive, He got as good as an
even break in every other round
O'Keefe used bull ring methods
making big show Of aggressive
ness with bluff rushes that did
about as much damage as good
stiff jolt from q house fly.
It wasn't bad pout. except that
there was too much wrestling and
not enough punching Whitney,
cieyerness gave him all the edge
and his defensive work against the
Well-meant blows OF O'Kcefe saved
him from any serious damage
There was nothing about the
scrap at any stage that gave
O'Keefe any edge. He did not land
as many blows as his opponent. He
did not land as hard He had moth
ing on points or in execution
Boxing is in a bad way in At

To establish uniformity in action by
clubs when a player, released by a

that club to protect both parties to the

THE scouting days are here. Mike
Kahoe, of the Washington
team, watched the performance
yesterday, and from now on the
big league sleuths will be dropping
in on Atlanta every few days and
looking over the talent.
Unless HARRISON can set the
team ablaze, the Crackers are not
likely to have anything this year
which will get the scouts on the
run. Bailey, who is doing brill
liant work, belongs to the New
York Americans. and will prob
ably be called back for a trial
with them next spring. The only
Atlanta pitcher who is doing real

After the singles drawing had
