SOLD TO RED SOX BY

| PHILADELPHIA — 0P) — The |
~Athletics announced Saturday ]
‘night the trade of Infielder Eric
‘McNair and Outfielder Doc Cram-'
er to the Boston Red Sox in ex
change for Pitcher Henry Johnson,‘
Infielder Alfred Niemiee and an[
undisclosed sum in cash. !
The deal is part two in the A’s-!
Bed Sox trading which began with,
the sale of first baseman Jimmy'
Fox and Pitcher Johnny Marcum |
to Boston at the major league
meetings last month.
Cramer Is regarded as one of the
standout outer gardeners in the
major leagues. He is 28 years old
and has been with the A’s since
1929, when he was signed as a
free agent.
MeNair, was the first-string
stortstop and an infield sparkpulg
of the A’s last year. He was pur
chased from Memphis, Tenn. in
August, 1929, I
Cramer batted .332 in 149 games
last season, and has been a con
gistent .800 or better hitter for the
last few years. MecNalr, apparent
ly affected by the poor showing of
the A’s in 1935, turned in only a
270 average in 137 games of the
geason. : [
No announcement of the cash!
involved was made, but estimates
are that between $300,000 ana
half-a-million was deposited In
the A’s treasury in the two deals—
that involving Foxx, and the onel
announced Saturday night.
With the announcement of this
which had been reported for weeks
Connie Mack about completed the:
wrecking of his ball club. With|
Foxx gone, the A’s had lost the |
last star of their 1929-31 team,
which won three American league
pennants and two world’s cham
pionships. Cramer and McNair
were understudies on that gombi
nation.
On the other hand, the acquis!-
tion of the infielder and outfielden
as well as Foxx, by the Red Sox,
should provide owner Tom Yaw
key and the Boston fans a team
of pennant winning calibre for
1936.

Moccasins Even 2-Game
Series, With 38-27 Vic
tory Saturday Night
BY JACK REID
The University of Chattanooga’s
sharp-shooting Moccasin quintet
evened matters with the University
of Georgia’s Bulldog edition here
last night. taking the second game
of the series by a 38 to 27 count,
after dropping the initial contest
to the Red and Black five Friday
evening, 35 to 23.
The invading 'Nooga team out
played the local five in every de
partment of the game, and flashed
a crack offense in the second halr
that proved to be more than the
Bulldogs could handle.
McMahan Stars
Billy McMahan, star forward,
paced the invaders’ attack with
14 points to his credit, two of which
were made on foul throws. It was|
the splendid work of the husky
forward that kept the Chattanooga
quintet on even terms with the
Bulidogs in the first half, and his
timely goals also came in good in
the final period.
Throughout the first half the|
battle was nip-and-tuck. Georgia
got away to a small lead to start
the game off and seemed headed
for another victory. Led by Mc-
Mahan, however, the visiting side |
began to click, and from then un-l
til the end of the first half the lead
switched hands several times, tho'
score being tied at 15-15 at thel
intermission. i
Georgia was unable to ssta,r't|
clicking when play was renewed,
and the Moccasins quickly ran up
a 22 to 15 lead, which settled mat
ters for the evening. Coach Rexl
Enright, Georgia mentor, rushed
in several substituteg in an effort
to start the Bulldog attack going
but his efforts were to no avail.
Klein Comes Through ¢
Big Bob Klein, Chattanooga cap
tain and star center, was the lead
er of the Moceasin’'s great spurt in
the final half Held to one tield!
goal and a lone shot in the initiai|
period, Klein eame back in the sec- |
ond half to gather four field goals, |
and turn in a fine game under thei
basket.
Frank Johnson again paced the
Gieorgia attack, chalking up 10
points. Jimmy Moore, fiery ]ittla}
forward, looked good during the;
battle, and registered a total of 8§
points, all from the field. Olin
Thompson, Macon sophomore, turn
ed in an impressive performanco’
as a relief guard, while Harrison
Anderson, regular guard, gj‘:XeM
good bhgll at times, and ssecu 61
points,
The inability of the Georgians to
make free throws good - greatly
helped the Chattanooga cause. In
15 fouls shots, the Bulldogs madel
only 5 count. |

Two Men Electrocuted ;
- - -
By Dangling Live Wire
In Atlanta Last Night
—_—————
ATLANTA, Ga. — () — Two
men were electrocuted ~Saturday
night when they came in contacti
with a dangling live wire—one‘
of many torn down in the recent
ice storm that beset Atlanta. ’
The dual electrocution brought |
to four the number of persons
killed by high voltage lines since
the storm struck here a week ago.
Neither of the pair was identified |
immediately. T
The ice and snow from ~which
the Atlanta region suffered heavy
damage have disappeared but
streams throughout the region
were reported swollen from raing
and the melting of the freeze. i
Further Increase in Production of Early
Peaches May Lead to Marketing Di
. Kenneth Treanor, extension eco-l
:nnmist in farm management of thei
Jagricultural extension division Sat
| urday warned that further in
:101-9ases in production "of early
| peaches in central Georgia may|
;llead to serious marketing difficul
‘ties. i
The market demand for early
| ripening varities is limited, he said‘
lin a survey, and added ‘“these var
| ieties will compete with shipments |
|of the later maturing varisties
}f:'nm south Georgia.” I
{ “It is interesting to note,” Trea
i!nor said, “that while 60 per cent
'of the trees in middle Georgia Inl
11934 were of the Elberta variety,
‘iless.than 30 per cent of the trees|
{under five years old were Elberta.s.|
;A large portion of the young trees
are earlier-ripening varieties, such
as Hiley and Early Rose.
“It would seem, therefore, that
further planting might well be ot
|the Elberta variety to replace old
Elberta trees which are each year
going out of bearing.”
Surveying conditiong in the state
as a whole, Treanor said the num
ber of young trees in Georgia is
hardly sufficient to malintain pres
ent bearing capacity of commer
cial orchards during the next five
years. i
About 56 per cent of the Georm
trees, he added, were 10 years (
or more in 1934 and about 25 per
cent were under five years old.
