.OTTLEY TO QUIT
RESERVE BOARD
Atlanta Man Won't Be Candi-
date to Succeed Himself
When Term Expires

ATLANTA, April 22.-John X.
Ottley, president of the Fourth
National Bank of Atlanta, now serv-
ing the last year of his second
term as director of the Federal
Reserve Bank Of Atlanta, covering
Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Tennes-
see, Mississippi and Louisiana, has
notified the Atlanta Clearing House
association that he will not be can
didate for reelection on the Reserve
bank board.
Ottley has been twice elected
without opposition, and no oppos-
ition to his reelection for a Thrill
term was apprehended. He stated,
howeved that he was retiring on
the principle that rotation in office
should be observed in this bank
owned Institution; that further his
two terms had conferred upon him
the full measure of honor the po-,
sition implies, while at the same
time he had discharged in full the
public duty that every banker owes
to membership in the Federal Re-
serve bank in recognition of its adj
vantages to the banking fraternity
and to the welfare of the country.
He became director of the FEEDER
al Reserve bank at one Of the most
trying periods in the financial his
tory Of the South. 1t was immed-
lately after the close of the war,
and in the second year of his first
term the deflation period begar. In
the trying days of 1919-1921 his
counsel and advice, bankers de-
clare, were most helpful; he devoted
himself untiring to the problems
of the Federal Reserve bank, and
his judgment relative to credit was
employed in a way that was cal
culated to help every member bank
where help was needed.
Another conspicuous service by
OttIey was performed in perfecting
the internal organization of the
Federal Reserve bank, which grew
from a baby to a giant during the
war period. The systematizing of
this army of employees, then num-
bering 317 aud now numbering 474
called for the highest order of abil-
ity; and the way the bank is run
ming today, without hitch or vibra-
ton, like a perfect machine is the
best evidence, Bankers state, of tie
skill and thoroughness which Mr.
Ottley and his associates applied to
the job.

IN OLD
FORM FOR SEASON
Americas Ball Tosser Whose
Arm Went Bad Has Com
pIetely Recovered Control

ATHENS, April 22.-Although
the fall of champion, is always
tragic, there is nothing in the world
of athletics that is more glorious
than the return of one to fame.
This feat has been accomplished by
Cliff Pantone, of Americas premier
pitcher of Southern intercollegiate
ball for two years on the club at the
University of Georgia.
Last year Cliffs" arm went bad
or him and the old time dazzling
speed and wicked hooks which work
ed so effectively in face of the
bludgeons of opposing batsmen
were noticeably lacking. This year
he has returned to form and the old
ligaments in his shoulder which
were so obstinate have yielded to
treatment ard the speed king is
again in his prime. Macon fans will
never forget his exhibition against
the Yale club which had troubled
every team played in the South sew
eral years ago. His summer record
in Savannah is still the talk of fans
from that section while irs his ex-
perience at the University he holds
victories over almost every Southern
College. Pantone one of the great
est speed ball pitchers in the Uni
versity's history has regained his
arm and control, and in the first
game of the season that he has
pitched defeated the Michigan VOL
verines 10 to 3.
