ED VICINITY TO
 BOX WITH SAAB Another Preliminary Is Lined Up For Moore
 Finley Bout

Eddie McGinty, brother of Johnny, and Bogie Saab will be one of the fea- ture attractions of the sport card at the Birmingham Athletic club Monday night. These two boys will appear in one of the six-round semi-wind-up af- fairs preceding the main match between Joe Moore, the McKeesport mauler, and the popular Jimmy Finley. These two boys will step it off over the 1O-round route. M
 Jack Bodine, who has been a close friend of Jimmy Ffnley's ever since Jimmy started out in the boxing game, received a wire from Jimmy Friday night in which he stated that he would arrive in Birmingham Saturday after noon. When Jack first heard of the coming battle he wrote Jimmy that he wanted him to be his guest at his home in Roebuck. Jimmy wired his accept ance.
 Moore Beat Dillon
 Joe Moore, who has picked up quite a bit of prestige all over the country ever since he handed Young Jack Dill Ion a couple of wallopings, is not slated to arrive in Birmingham until Sunday. Moore wired Dave Evans Fri day Received transportation all o. k., and will arrive in Birmingham Sunday. Am in the best shape of my career and expect to give Finley the trimming of his young life when. we hook up Mon day night"
 The remainder of the card will be a six-round semi-wind-up between Tony Mareno and Red Burke. Red has been feeling his oats ever since he won over Young Battling Kelly and he states that he believes he will be able to polish Mareno, off before the sixth round comes up. Stevie Sarrnn will try out his wares against KidssEott inaa four round tilt and Parker Taylor is going gunning for Tom Lacey in 1O-round wrestling encounter.

ATHENS TEAM IS
 TWICE WINNER

ATHENS, Ala, June 27.-(Special.) The Athens baseball club has been do- ing some excellent playing the past two days, when they met the Hart selIe team on the Athens diamond yesterday and defeated then 5 to 3 and today they also defeated the visitors by a score of to 2. The team is improving wonderfully, having culled several of the first players from the lineup and replaced them with better material. One of the best moves that has been made towards getting a good start was when Wilson Collins of Pu- laski, Tenn, was taken on the first of this week.

getting their start in the local amate ranks. Harold Snyder is the best second sacker in the Piedmont league and potential big league purchase. Peewee Wanninger is being nursed along at Augusta by the Detroit Tigers. Red Holt is leading the International in hit ting and seems sure to go up again.
 These are. a few samples, and there are others. The college and even high school ranks are damned with tossers who need only little experience and smoothing out to make excellent profes- siOnals. And no time could be better for their insertion into the lineup. No. amount of spring training can equal ac- tual playing under fire, however, kick less the race may be. Certainly the Barons could make about as much headway as they are now; and the fans would quite surely turn out bet ter to see the youngsters.
 Of course, this won't be done; there fore nobody can say it wouldn't work
