Now, active oxygen. rs any doctor
will tell you, when generated within
the digestive tract, does just the
things required for acidity. 1t
stimulates the secretion of the
alkaline mucus. 1t checks the putre-
faction and fermentation in the

lates the activities of the .intestinal
walls and aids the natural move
ment of the bowels. All three
effects are necessary to the true
relief of acidity, and Magnesia
OXoids supply them in a perfectly
natural manner.

Tracys Landing High March 20 here.
Perry Wilkinson, who played with the
Easton and Crisfield teams OF the East
ern Shore League and who is a 1923
graduate of the University Of Maryland,
is coaching the Marlboro squad for the
first time.
The Marlboro bunch has been drill
ing for about week. Prospects Tor a
strong team are not so bright, as only
two regulars and two substitutes remain
from last seasons team. The 1929 nine
finished runner-up to Hyattsville High
in the race for the county champion
ship.
Capt. Howard Ford, catcher last sea-
son, who will be converted into an out
fielder this year, and George Deck, first
sacker last year, who is being groomed
for mound duty this Spring, are the
1929 regulars at hand. Wilson Chatter
ton, reserve infielder, who probably will
be at shortstop, and Blair Stallings, out
paign ago at hand. Thomas Burroughs
Is another pitching prospect
Robert Gather is a leading candidate
for catcher. Others making strong bids
for the team include:
Tom Terry, first base; Jack Straining.
Guy Anderson and Frank Beall, second
bast; Wilson Ford, third base, and Regi-
Maid Burroughs and Edward Coffren

''0LD" WIGGINS ADDED
TO CARNERA VICTIMS
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

ST. LOUIS, March 1s (C.P.A.)-The
story now Is that If Jack Dempsey can
whip his old legs into shape on the
sands of Ensnada he will fight Primo
Camera during the second week Of Sep
TENDER. The place viii be Soldier
Field, Chicago.
Dempsey has expressed q willingness
to fight the huge Italian If he returns
to the ring. And since Bill Duffy, one
Of Jacks pals, is co-manager of Car
nera there will be no hesitancy on the
Italians part about accepting the bout,
especially since ne keeled over Chuck
Virgins here last night before $4,000 in
a $4,000 house.
Another yarn from the Camera
camp Is that Primo viii take on six
more opponents and then top of the
Summer by tackling George Godfrey In
Philadelphia, which might be a bad
piece of business for the italian, for
the black shadow is big and can both
box and hit.
Camera topped OF Mique Malloy's
st. Patrick day show here by tumbling
old Chuckling Virgins In his second
engagement in st. Louis.
Virgins. with q ward-heeler'S punch
and packing 2l0 pounds, was presumed
to be the toughest glut Primo has en-
countered since coming to these shores.
But the Old Goblin lasted only two
rounds.

Angling Con Cincinnati Club Rehabated
McGr0lD Has a Scheme
To Ab0te Holdoutitis
BY EDWARD 7. MURPHY.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla, March
18.-John McGraw has advanced a
scheme which, If put into effect in
both major leagues, will, he thinks,
go a long way toward eliminating
the annual annoyance caused by ball
players refusing to sign their con-
tracts early and failing to report for
the entire Spring training period.
The manager of the Giants would
extend the ball players salary over
eight months each year instead Of
six, so that they would begin to earn
their pay on March /, not on the
opening day of the championship
season, as now Is the case.
Under the proposed McGraw
method the bi-monthly check drawn
by each player would not be as heavy
as that which is handed once every
two weeks under the present system,
but he would have more pay days.

Carlos has stepped along right well
in the short time he has been in or
ganized base ball. He made his bow in
the profession with Pensacola in 1928
and last year leaped from the class B
Southeastern circuit to the class A
Southern Association, pitching for Biz
mingham. While he made no startling
record with the Barons. his perform.
ances so impressed Clark Grtfhth that
the Washington president did not heSt-
tate to buy Moore for his Nationals.
Moore attributed his rise in base ball
to Doc Johnston, the old Cleveland first
sacker. Born in Clinton, Tenn, August
IS, 1907, Carlos Whitman was quite
young when his family took him to
Cleveland, Tenn, where Doc held
forth. At Cleveland Moore started in
sandlot base ball as q pitcher and has
done nothing in the game since but
pitch.
He played base ball, foot ball and
basket ball for four years in high school,
toiling at end on the eleven and at
guard on the five. He was captain of
his high school nine for two years and
also captained the basket ball team
through two seasons. Johnston took an
interest in Moore while the youngster
was starring in high school and watch
ed him carefully while he was In the
sunday School League In Cleveland and
also on the town team.
Finally, in 1925, in the Cleveland
Citv League, Moore pitched his team
to a pennant, beating out the club Doc
had in the circuit. The next year Doc
took Moore to Chattanooga, where he.
Johnston, had a semi-pro OUTFIT. Moore
made good with ease and when john
SION went to Pensacola to manage the
So,1theastern club in 1928 he lost no
time in signing Carlos Whitman.
