scientious investigation failed to
produce proof of guilt, thereby

The Baltimore boy. who fought
many OF his early battles at the Ard

has advanced rapidly in the past
year. He has grown a bit rugged,

roUshing storms in the ring. He packs
a fair -~WalloP, though nothing re-

science inside Of the ropes.
However, II CLANCY is ever to claim
a title, It will hardly be a bantam
crown. He is right now a respectable
featherweight. and, as such, will
probably be found battling the best

Ever see a Southern Association
contest at Ponce de Leon Park, At

movable bleachers. That's right
movable bleachers.
A low hill rises out beyond the
center and right field fences, topped
by the Southern railway tracks.
Every afternoon a long string OF
freight cars ornament that hill. and
every afternoon when the Crackers
are playing at home, those cars are
ornamented with Philippians Il all
ages and sizes and grins.
And maybe those Philippians don't
root, They can be heard way down
at Peachtree street, which is some
distance away. They thoroughly en-
joy the early innings OF every game.
The early innings? Yes. the early
innings. for in the fourth or NTH in
