Mr.. Martin Is not hunting the office
and let that be stated here and now.
He Is for the Southern association first,
last and all the time, and whoever the
majority Of the club presidents favor
for the high office OF president, John
Martin can be counGeG on to concur.
Martin wants to see the association
prosper and II he Is nominated and
elected to the presidency OF the league,
he Will bend every effort to make the
Southern the greatest minor league In
existence. Martin la a live wire. He is
a lawyer Of note and Is ably fitted to
handle all the duties Of the office ca.
pabIy and acceptably to everybody.
Martin Is for harmony In the ranks.
He has said he would accept the office
II rendered him and II the club owners
felt that he was the man the league
needed. But as for seeking the office
or asking for the support OF the club
owners, he was not SO inclined.
John Martin wants to see the South
ern league prosper regardless OF who Is

attitude Of Mr.. Martin.
