REAL WORK BEGINS TO-DAY


 Today the Barons begin their real work. They reported to Moiey Friday and the ironing out proc ess was gone through with at Redwood. Saturday mudguards were brought into play, due to the excessive wetness, and what had been gained by the first days work out was lost, Today things will start to hum at the orchard, and in the course of few days Moley will start cleaning out the deadwood and getting ready for the season, which will open Wednesday, April IS. There will be a total of 42 men in camp, and from this number he must make a minus mark of 27. With such large subtraction list, it means that the Baronia1 chieftain must get busy in the neighborhood at once on the cutting down process.

 John B. Robinson has doped out the bush league situation from scientific standpoint. He points out that the Carolina, Piedmont and Cotton States leagues get their revenue mainly from cotton grow CTS, and those who depend on cot ton growers for dividends. He brings to light in his argument that the low price of cotton will make the going extremely diff cult for moguls in these districts the coming summer. Therefore, John B.'s advice to young players is for them to go to Florida, where the baseball moguls look to the price of fruit and the pocke tbooks of tourists to keep them alive. John B. points out the fact that money for baseball has always been plentiful in Florida, except in midwinter, where a number of magnates have lost money.

SOME OF THE
 FAVORED ONES

Picking the winners of the tourney is a job which assumes almost impossible proportions inasmuch as it is impossible for any one man to have seen all the en trants in action. The concensus of opin- ion among some of the sporting author- ities in Birmingham is that the follow ing men will figure strongly the cham pionships:
 1OS-pound class-George Harwell and Al Pettingill. . 15-pound class-Jimmie Woods, Al Guillot and Pascal Colletti.
 125-pound class-F'rank Strobno and Louis Silver.
 135-pound class-Dave Evans, George Lemon and William Huxen.
 145-pound class-Virgil Hawkins, Wheel CT Chapman and Joe Wilson.
 15S-pound class--Ed Duffy and Sam Impastato.
 175-pound class-Ernie Perrin looks the best but the others seem very closely grouped in ability
 Heavyweight class-Erne Perrin and Joe Tuminello.
 Of course the pickers may be all wrong, but the above men look good to decide the championships between

First of Thirty-Eight Bouts for
 Tonight Will Begin at 8 3 0'CIoCk-Doping It Out
By MARVIN M,cARTHY

Birmingham today is the mecca for Dixie amateur boxers, for some 35 or 40 of the south's best mitt wielders will gather here for the opening of the southern amateur box ing tournament, which will be staged in Birmingham for the second suc- cessive year under the auspices of the Birmingham Athletic club. Pre- liminary bouts will be staged tonight, with semifinal and final matches taking place tomorrow night. All bouts will be staged at the B. A. C..
 Only a few of the -of-town boys to participate in the tourney have arrived in Birmingham, but all will be in town in time for the bouts tonight Sid Zit- terbaum. the first to send in his entry mailing in his name over two months ago, was the first to arrive in Birming- ham, He reported to the B.

 GOOD MONEY FOR HUSTLERS
 The Florida State league is of fering exceptional good contracts this year, it is said, and many of the local boys have decided to cast their lot in that circuit. With doubt in the minds of the officials IS to whether the industrial plants will support teams this year, many of the boys are preparing to journey to Florida for the summer.
 Bill Swartz, local boy, who piloted the Norfolk Virginia league club to a penannt in 1919, and who came to loggerheads with the magnates last season and was traded, is out of baseball for the present. Bill has been wintering in Jacksonville, but his friends here say that he may take a club out later on in the spring.

LOCAL PROSPECTS
 LOOK GOOD

Birmingham has some very good pros poets in the lighter divisions. In fact Birmingham entries look good to win the first few classes.
 George Harwell, backed up by Hollis Arnold Horace Hooper and Claude Wilson, present a formidable appear ance in the 0S-pound class.
 Jimmie Woods is a mighty classy little scrapper. He is local boy, and is entered in the 115-pound class.
 Frank Strobino seems the class of the field in the 25-pound class. Other local boys who are really good boxers are Speedy" Newman and Carl Ar mold, both entered in the 125-pound class

NEW YORK. Aug. e.-Lou Telle-

yesterday. His personal effects
notably his wardrobe, which he has
been trying to recover. were sent by
his WIFE Geraldine Farrar-not TO
him at the Ritz or Long Beach. but

but Of course" said Harry ~.
Steinfeld. Mr.. Tellegen's attorney,
"this came through oversight and
we expect to recover the rest OF my
clients belongings as soon as we
have told Mrs. Tellegen's attorney
what they are"
A good deal OF typewrlting was
INDUCED in before the clothes and
other chattels of Mr.. TellegeB
reached the warehouse. Last week
before Mr.. Tellegen began the sep
aration suit. In which no papers
have as yet been filed, he went, -c-
cording to his lawyer, many an af-
ternoon to his wife's house and
found the door locked against him.
So when the papers in the lawsuit
were prepared, and, as the lawyer
says, served on Miss Farrar. Mr..
Steinfeld wrote to Alvin Untermyer,
tho attorney representing Miss Far
rar, asking that Mr.. Tellegen be
permitted entry in order to get the
things he had left.
Mr. Untermyer's reply. as noted
by Mr. Steinfeld, was that the things
were to be sent to Mr.. Tellegen but
that an essential fact was lacking,
that being his address. As Mr.. Tel
logen wished personally to collect his
effects, Mr. Steinfeld wrote Mr.. Tn
termyer again, suggesting that the
latter name a day and hour when
Mr.. Tellegen could call at the home
of Mrs. Tellegen and gather up his
impedimenta. Yesterday Mr.. Inter

ing duty. was dismissed from the
Bureau Of Police yesterday after
noon, by the Department Of Public
Safety, following a hearing. He has
been a member OF the force for 13
months.
Five members OF the force were
given hearings yesterday. Three
charged with neglect OF duty were
each fined the equivalent OF three
days pay. and one member was
reprimanded as 1t was his first Of
tense.
The ordinance requiring an annual
license fee OF $50 by owners Of auto
mobiles used for public hire, was dis
cussed and the directors expressed
themselves as favoring a strict en-
forcement Of the ordinance. II was
explained by officials OF the bureau
that the ordinance refers to automo-
bile owners who hire their cars pfi-
vately as well as those whose busi-
ness consists Of hiring automobiles
for funerals, weddings, by the hour,
or for any other purpose.
The new ordinance applies TO own
ers OF trucks who permit use OF their
machines for straw-rides and the
like. for which they receive pay
ment II also applies to an indi-
vidual who hires out his car TO =
party for a ride on a Sunday or a
holiday. or any other day. and re-
ceives payment for its use In ad-
dition it applies to undertakers who
receive payment for one or more Of
their automobiles at funerals. wheth-
or this payment comes from the
family of the deceased or from some
other undertaken using the ma
chine. The taxi cab proprietors al,'
included in the provision Of the
law.
The license fee Is payable to HON.
er c. Simmons. clerk Of the City
Council. To date nearly sixty such
licenses have been taken out but 1t
is said there are many others hiring
out their cars who have not paid
the license, and who seem to be
under the impression that II does
not concern them.

NO TROUBLE HERE
OVER MOVIE MUSIC

Local motion picture house or
chestras have been cut down to a
minimum, as a result OF the indus
trial depression, but according to
local managers there will be no
further pairing. Patrons of the pic
ture houses will not be deprived Of
the musical features that accompany
the shows. The pairing down OF the
orchestra personneis was done to
meet the falling off OF patronage,
and is in line with the retrenchment
programs OF local motion picture
houses owners.
There has been no trouble in Will
mington with the Musicians Union,
as has been the case in Philadelphia,
over the unions refusal to accept a
cut in wages. It is said in that city
that a movement has been started
which may result in the elimination
OF orchestras in theatres, and the en-
ployment of nonunion pianists and
organists. with an accompanying re-
duction In the prices OF admission.
No such movement is contemplated
by Wilmington managers.
