Two kids-Eddie Reagan and M. G.
Dudley-will be arrayed against half
a dozen old tops in the next South
Atlantic league campaign, which will
start about the middle of April.
Reagan has been selected to pilot
the Charleston Gulls, which Jimmy
Hamilton had charge of last season,

ers at Augusta. All of the Sally clubs
have now chosen their managers, the

It is worthy of note that every
member of next seasons managerial
squad has seen service in the South,
Atlantic league. Connie Lewis was

DAYS, In recent years he has been
in charge of the Manitee club in
the Michigan State league, but usually
winters down this way and consequent
" has kept in close touch with the af-

Dudley was released by Augusta in
1910 and skipped out to the Cotton
States league, where he gained his
first experience as a manager, jump

as pilot of the brownsville club.

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 27.-The fair

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 27.-The
National Geographic Society has pre-
pared the following description of the
region in Italy just devastated by the
great earthquake:
In the Abruzzi district of east cen
trail Italy, where the recent earth
quake shocks have worked in seconds
a destruction equal to weeks of war,
there are no great cities and few mon
uments of the country's brilliant his
tory or it's more famous works of art.
Abruzzie is grazing, vine-growing,
farming district. 1t is a mountainous
and hilly land, comprising the widest
and most rugged portion of the Apen-
mines. Some of Italy's most pictur-
esque scenery is to be enjoyed here, al
though travellers from America seldom
seek it, as the railway connections are
bad and the inn accommodations, for
the most part sadly primitive and
severe.
THE district contains some $3.50
square miles, or Is about equal in size
to the states of Rhode Island and Con-
necticut. 1t supports some two million
people, most of whom make their liy-
ing in farming, orchard and vine Gull
ture, and in cattle, sheep and swine
raising. There is considerable unim-
portant manufacturing within the dis
trict but little or no industry. Rarely
beautiful tapestries and handmade
laces are worked in the hilly villages
as home work. Many of the Abruzzi
peasantry, untaught in the methods of
design and unaided by any but the
simplest mechanical contrivances, dis
play the highest order of artistic ap-
probation in their hand-lace produc-
tons.
Vast forests of oak, beech and pine
cover the jagged mountain groups, and
their area serves as a feeding ground
for large herds of swine. The raising
of swine and the preparation of their
meat is one of the important endeayors
Of this country, and, among the mas
terworks of Italy, the vicious, seduc-
tive. thrilling Abruzzi sausage deserves
honorable mention. These sausages

prove almost as valuable to the JAZZ
ers as was big George Stinson to the
Macon Tigers last season.
Lipe, Fox, Manush and Stinson are
the quartette of left-overs from the
1914 campaign. The former had not
yet signed a contract, but has made
it plain that he is ready to return if
the locals swing onto their league
franchise, which seems highly prob
able. Fox was slated for the Jack
sonville berth early in the winter, but
after thinking the matter over care
fully the Columbus owners finally de-
cided that the old long boy still had
too much left in him to permit him
to tie up with a rival this year, any
way. Manush and Stinson had hard
rows to hoe last year and hoed them
so well that there is no question but
what they will return this season. The
former pulled the Babies through to
a championship in the second half
race, but lacked the necessary class
afield in the series with Savannah.
With the exception of Reagan and
Dudley, the Sally's managerial outfit
for the coming season may all be list
ed under the head of old tops. Lipe,
Fox, Stinson and Lewis have been
playing the game for livelihood ever
since Hector was a wee bit of a
canine. Manush has been over the
jumps from D to majors and back,
though he is by no means an old one
in years, and CASTOR belongs to about
the same class. 1t will, therefore, be
interesting to follow the efforts of the
leagues kids-Reagan and Dudley
against the old guard.
