KEEN RACE LIKELY
IN SOUTHERN LOOP
Trades, Purchases Bolster
CIubs-AtIanta Regarded
Big Flag Threat.
BY DILLON GRAHAM,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

A TLANTA, Ga, January 14-The
~ Southern Base Ball Association
~ race this Summer will be one
Of the hottest in years II pre-
season trades, purchases and general
strengthening all down the line may
be used as basis for early Judgment.
Virtually every club has improved its
attack and defense by the acquisition
of new blood. Wholesale revisions by
Atlanta, New Orleans and Nashville
have featured the January-December
deals
New managers are found in Atlanta.
Knoxville and New Orleans. Larry
Gilbert, after a year as business man
ager, takes over the New Orleans
managerial reins again to relieve jake
Atz, who will return to the Texas
NeiS at Knoxville and Charlie Moore,
formerly with Hartford in the Eastern
League, succeeded Red Barron in
Atlanta.
The Crackers, hardly a threat in any
recent race, may be the team to watch
this season. A new organization finds
Wilbert Robinson, for many years
Brooklyn manager, as president, and
T. l.. Huston, former part owner Of the
Yankees, as a director. The new off,
cials have shown a tendency to loosen
the purse strings in an effort to bring
Atlanta winning club.
THE Crackers will have brand new
l. inner circle with the possible excep-
ton of Buster Chatham at short
stop. First BaseInan Gordon Phelps and
Second Baseman Wally Dashiell, who
played year ago with Chattanooga,
were acquired through Washington
Third Baseman Russell Rollings of Den-
yer was bought from the st. Louis Car
dinals' system. Atlanta also acquired
Art Weis, a Birmingham outfield star
two years ago.
Chattanooga, 1882 champions. will
have another contender but the per-
sonnel of the Lookouts is unknown as
yet. washington recalled Inflelders
Boss, Kingdom and Travis, Outfielder
Andrus and Catcher Bolton. Practi-
cally all the excellent pitchers Of 1882
will be available, as will Jilek, catcher;
Wilburn, an infielder. and Bonowitz and
Gill, outfielders.
The Pelicans have called in many of
their younger players from farms and
clubs in smaller leagues and will test
them in their training season.
Manager Clyde Milan at Birming-
ham has made few changes, but the
Barons can be regarded as a pennant
threat. Birmingham obtained Pitchers
Frank Mulroney from New Haven and
G. S. Parker from WilliamSport, and
Outflelder Carroll Clark from Durham.

TUNNEY ENDS SUIT
BY PAYING $4,000.
Settles $50O,0OO Action by
Mara, Who Claimed Part of
Genes Earnings.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, January 14.-Tim
Maras suit against Gene Ttln-
VI ney, former world heavyweight
L boxing champion, for $500,000
has been settled, the New York
promoter announced today. Mara has
agreed to drop the suit on cash pay
ment of $4,000 to be made next week
Retrial of the suit, brought by Mara
on a claim for Is per cent of the for
mer champions ring earnings, was
scheduled for next week. The case
was tried originally here two years ago
and resulted in a verdict for Tunney
after much sensational testimony delv-
ing deeply into the inner workings OF
the big league fight business.
This original verdict later was re-
versed by the Appellate Court and q
new trial ordered on the grounds that
letters from Tunney to Mara, allegedly
confirming the promoters claim that
Tunney had agreed to give him 25 per
cent of future earnings for gaining
Gene a title match with Jack Demp-
sey, were not admitted as evidence.
s.THE lawyers have been dickering
i for weeks" said Mara, owner
of the New York Giants pro-
fessonal football team, and a boxing
promoter, land have signed release
of all claims Tunney is Ill and pay
ment of the $4,000 to me has been de-
ferred until next Thursday or Friday"
Mara's case was based on his claim
that he had agreed to use his political
and other influence to pursuade Tex
Rickard to name Tunney as Jack
Dempsey's opponent for match in
1926 in return for percentage Of the
fighters future earnings.
Tunney claimed that no contract
had been made and that Mara's aid
had been invoked only for match to
take place in New York.
DURING the testimony prominent
- political figures, including former
New York State governor. un-
named. and James A. Farley former
head Of the New York State Athletic
Commission and now chairman of the
Democratic National Committee, fig
ured in the evidence.
The maneuvering OF Tex Rickard,
promoter of both TlInney-Dempsey
bouts, provided highlights in the evi-
dence, as 1t was shown through tele-
grams and letters exchanged with both
warriors that he tried to convince each
man the other couldn't fight.
Mara, who once offered his LAWYERS
for themselves any judgment that
could be obtained Just so that his suit
was vindicated. explained today the
payment of $4,000 on Tunney's part
justified his claim.
I'm these times" he said. "that's a
lot of money for Tunney or anyone else
to paw. All I wanted was vindication.
Now I've got It,"

CURELY, you remember Carl Mays,
- of the marine delivery!
He's back in Portland, Greg,
now, retired from base ball.
The picture which accompanies
this little sketch was taken when
Mays was with the Red Sox, back in
1917.
You will recollect that soon after
ward the Boston club traded Mays
to the Yankees. 1t was one of the
many deals largely for cash made
between Harry Frazee, owner of the
Red Sox, and Col. Jacob Rupert
and Capt. Til Huston, owners of the
Yankees.
Ban Johnson, president of the
American League at the time, did
not like the idea of Frazee's selling
so many of his stars and tried to
block the deal. The case was car
ried into court. johnson had to
surrender.
Mays went from the Yankees to
Cincinnati, then back to New York,
with the Giants, and then into the
minors.
