JUDGEMENTS REVERSED N
 FEDERAL SUIT

Washington, December 6.-The dis trict court of appeals today reversed the recent judgment for s264,000 granted by the district supreme court against the major baseball leagues in favor of the Baltimore Federal league club, which claimed violation of the antitrust laws by "the use of the re serve clause in the players contracts.
 The appellate court held that play. ing baseball did not constitute com. merce as defined by United States su- preme court decisions and that the antitrust law did not apply The "re- serve clause" imposed restrictions the court held which related directly to the conservation of the personnel of the clubs. and did not affect the move ment. of the Federal league clubs. Any i'll effect was merely accidental the court found.
 Counsel for the Baltimore club am rounced today that an attempt would be made to carry the case to the su- preme court for review.
 verdict for $S0,o00 was awarded by the jury when the former Federal league clubs contention was upheld in the lower court. As provided by the antitrust laws the amount of the Judgment was tripied and an attor- rey's fee of $24.000 was added, bring Ing the total judgment up to $264.000

FRANK KRAMER FORCED FROM 6-DAY BIKE RACE BY THE TERRIFIC PACE

New York, December 6.--The terrific pace set by the foreign riders in the six day bicycle race at Madison Square Garden tonight caused the retirement from the contest of Frank L. Kramer, for many years champion bicycle rider of the world. Willie Spencer, Kra- mers partner, was allowed four hours to team up with another rider

Fincher, star halfback and tackle, re- spectively, on the Georgia Tech elaven. have been picked by Walter Camp on his all-American football eleven. They say that first team honors have been landed by the Jacket stars, and they only ask that inquisitive ones wait until Camps selection is made public if they desire proof of the statements. Here's what the Atlanta Constitution has to say about the matter:
 Buck Flowers, captain of the 1sso Golden Tornado received telegram Saturday.
 "so did William Fincher, star tackle of the selfsamc organization.
 Both telegrams said the same thing.
 But what they said was enough,
 "The telegrams were signed by A. G. Spaulding and company. which IS enough to thrill the cookies of the heart of any football player.
 "They said that MT. Flowers had re- |ceived national honor. "So had MT. Fincher.
 That honor made it imperative for Messrs. Spaulding and company to nave their photographs for use in Spauld- i ing's football guide and for use n Golfers Weekly. That means that Buck Flowers enc Bill Fincher have been picked on Wal. ter Camps first all-American football team. the highest honor that can come to a football player. There are hundreds of all-Americar picks, but not one of them amounts tc more than hill of beans. Walter Camps is the real pick. l Tt Is his pick that Spaulding pub fishes as official. l Tt is his pick that Is annually the big football feature of Collier. Weekly.
 Neither the Spaulding Guide pol Golfers Weekly publishes pictures oi players other than selected for firs honors.
 Tt doesn't take any Sherlock Holmes to figure why they want the handsome and youthful countenance of Buck and the battle scared physiognomy of Bill They are all-American. This is the first time in the fris.or, of football that southerner has reer selected on Camps all-American ram save in 1913. a war year, when few colleges had football organization, when Bum Day. then of Tech. but now of Georgia. was placed at center on tn. | footballs most eminent authority's mythical eleven"

DUMMY HARRINGTON FAMED BY ARKANSAS TRAVELLER

An old friend of ours wrote letter to one of his Birmingham chums re- gently and told some interesting facts about himself and Arkansas. Yes, it's Dummy Harrington who has been let- ting the cat out of the bag.
 One experience in particular that Dummy relates with a good deal of enjoyment is his experience with enc of those little travelling street car- nivals of Arkansas. Burlington was moseying around seeing what he could see when he came on one of those little side shows where champion of some where or some other place takes on all corners and offers a reward to any one who can stay in the ring with him a certain length of time.
 Remembering. perhaps, some of the boxing cunning taught him by Tommy Tompkins, who developed Harrington to certain extent when the latter vi as boxing for the B. A. C., Dummy crawled under the ropes and squared away with the travelling champ. Well, he knocked that guy cold in short order.
 Harrington went around to the same side show the next night and sound another champion waiting 70 be shilalaied. But this time it was diff ferent sort of champion. as Dummy , soon found out.
 Our old friend Harrington was lam pasted from one end of the ring to the other. so the account goes and learned more about genuine fighting that nigni than he had ever absorbed under the
 watchful eyes of an instructor. Dummy says he's decided to leave Arkansas boxers alone. They car fight too good at times.
 Harrington states that he wants one more real bout before retiring from the game. He writes that he intends to come to Birmingham during Christmas week. and that if it can be arranged he vvnnts to | light here during that time.

TWoSpLenhd Bouts Billed
 For Dec. "A
By MARVIN M'CARTBY Sporting Ed tor The AEe-Herald


 The B. A. C.'s all-star boxing bill, slated for a week from to- night, December IA, includes some high class bouts. Instead of the usual semi-wind-up and final bout, two final bouts will be staged and a good semi wind-up attraction arranged in addition.
 In the. bout of major importance. Freddie Boorde will meet Jack Brady lin a return engagement between the two local lads. Brady has hearkened to the plea of return bout by Boorde, and he is accommodating the young lightweight in that he is giving him an opportunity to avenge himself for the defeat handed him by Brady a lew weeks ago.
 Then Duettee Alfred, the youngster from Bessemer, will clash with John ny Russo, the invader from New Or leans. Russo is a mighty clever kid, las he has proven in his two previous bouts here. Alfred has been boxing in local rings for over year now, and is we'll known to Birmingham fanatics.
 In addition to these two main Douts a couple of good preliminary and semi finals will be arranged, making it one of the best boxing bills ever put on by the B. A. c.
 Jack Brady hns now entirely re-
 covered from his case of ~fiu.'
 which prevented him meeting
 Boorde some time ago. Jack says
 he's in the prime of his condition.
 and that he Is anxious to meet
 Boorde again. He says there won't
 be my doubt about the correctness
 of the decision this time.

SEVEN SOUTHERN LEAGUE CLUBS LIST MANAGERS

Every Southern league baseball club has now listed a manager for the 1921 season. with the exception of Mem. phis, where speculation as to who will be the pilot for the coming season reigns supreme.
 The managers who have signed in the Dixie circuit for the coming season are as follows.
 Birmingham--Carlton Molesworth. Atlanta-Chariey Frank. New Orleans-Johnny Dobbs Little Rock-Ktd Elberfeid. Chattamo moga-Fred Graft NashviileAHub Perdue. Mobile-Herman Bronkie. Only one new face will be seen in managerial roles when the season opens, as 1t now looks. That will be Herman Bronkie. Hub Perdue Is well known to Southern league fans, al- though he has never managed a club in this circuit before. Fred Graff tcok charge of the faltering 'Noogans to- wards the latter part of the 1920 sea- son, so he might be considered an cid friend, especially as he has played in the Southern league before 1920.
 Jack Lewis finished out the seq
 son with Memphis last year, hut .t
 is not known whether he will net
 as manager during 1921 or not. If
 the old rule Is still in order. he
 will not. for frequent changes in
 managers nre quite the thing h Chick town.
