1t was charged that they violated
the major-minor league agreement
Of 1921 when they accepted a modi-
fled form of draft that did not in
clude some of the obiectional feat
ures that all of their brother
leagues had agreed to. These five
circuits declared themselves non
draft loops in 1921.
When they accepted the modified
draft they worked hardship on
all Of the other minors. according
to ]. Walter Morris, of Dallas. who
led the fight for the adoption of
the resolution. He pointed out that
had they gone in for a universal
draft that the majors would not
be signing young players in whole.
sale lots and could not bother with
free agents.

Perhaps the most important event
of the convention was the success
of the association in making 1t
known TO the world at large and
particularly the major leagues that
it is opposed to the present man
ner in which the two big leagues
control the national pastime. It
was brought out at the closing
session in a resolution reprimand-
ing the three double.A circuits and
the Western and Three Eye Leagues
for accepting a modified draft.
No effort was made to cancel
the agreements these loops
made with the major leagues,
but they were emphatically told
that i'm the future they must
first submit their propositions
to the National Association and
get its approval.

NEW YORK, Dec. "a question
fired at me often since the Chicago
fight is this:
why didn't you tear into Tun.

the SEVENTH"
Here is the rather delayed answer:
When Tunney climbed off that
floor, | felt supremely certain that
the championship of the world was
coming back to the Dempsey family.
Never before in any important
fight OF my career, did a man get
off the floor and go on to take
victory from me. l figured that
Tunney would be no exception; felt
that | had plenty of time left to
finish him and that he couldn't re-
cover before / could nail him again.
1t was confidence-and worse. 1t
was over-confidence, the fatal thing
in any endeavors of life.
Instead Of rushing Tunney
and throwing everything l had
into wild effort to finish him
in that round, / felt there was
no use taking foolish chances
and that he'd never recover
from that smashing.
Tunney got off the floor and
started to ride his bicycle. 1 might
then have dashed after him in
headlong fashion. But why do its

him and drop him again without

And beyond all that, / thought
at the time. that my scoring of the
knockdown had put me out far in

though ] didn't knock him out.

make flying tackles at the sprint.
