Rutina, of New Orleans. Be it said nihermore, that McGilvray “slowed" .• slde.rably last year, and it Is by no ; eans certain that he will be in the Southern next season. tanooga fandom is divided over everybody likes him persnn- , Some of them are convinced ,a: he’s the best all-round first i oman in the Southern Ijeague.

L;.!l .Schwartz has definitely an- ’ nouneed his intention of managing j from :he bench at Nashville, and Ar- a Hof man will not stay in the Southern. Hence it seems that a. new man will inevitably be seen on the Nashville team's Initial cushion. Just who he will be depends „on coming, radefl as he was not provided for j • drafts or purchases. There is a i hunch prevalent in Nashville that] ■he new' man will be Kraft, the hard- j ting first sacker who finished the] season with New Orleans and was j drafted by Brooklyn.

The total cost, the directors esti mate. will be about $10,000. and will include the following items A new fence, all around t hp field.

Atlanta dr -or\os a regular concrete, affair, t same as most of those in the big leagues. Birmingham has a first- class plan?, patterned after Forbes Field, in Pittsburg, but it has the same fault as Forbes Field—the stand is too far away from the scene of ac tion."

It would be impossible to build a new plant before next season, and so the directors are merely thinking the idea over carefully. In the meantime, the old park w il have to be dolled up a bit, though it doesn’t look so 1 d, at that. Federal Magnates Lay Plans for 1914 FITTSBl,'RG. Dec _ The magnates of thp Federal League met here yester day and much important business was transacted. Acting President John A. Gilmore, of Chicago, presided.

The success of the Army plays used so suc cessfully by the Army against the Navy last Saturday was not the# outside coaching, according to a statement is sued to-day by the Army Athletic Council. Coach Fielding H. Yost, of the University of Michigan, (tie state ment says, spent but one day at West Point, and did not assist Lieutenant C D. Daly, head Army coacn. The state ment says: "Much has been said in the newspa- • pers iti the last few days !n regard to J the assistance given to the coaches oft the West Point football team by Mr. < Fielding II Yost.

D ll) the leader ever hear of Joseph Carrora, a fighting na tive of Sharkal, Italy ? No? Yes, he has if he reads the spoiling pages. Carrora travels under the name of Johnny Dundee and Is the latest sensation among the light- eights. The Americanized Italian, by getting something of an edge over Charlie White in the newspaper ver dict at New Orleans Inst Thursday, leaped right up among the boys who are scrambling around trying to land a match with Champion Willie Ritchie. White has been in line for r crack at Ritchie for some weeks. Milwaukee clubs have been bidding for the match. Now Dundee has in an astonishing and sudden manner stepped right out into the spot where White stood, and it Is possible that he ms' beat Joe Rivera to a colli sion with the only lightweight cham pion California ever has had White Not Disgraced. Before we plunge any deeper into this Dundee narrative we w ish fo say that we do not consider that Charlie White has been disgraced at all. Dundee deserves great credit for his victory, all right, no matter how small the margin. But not much censure is coming to White. Prob ably he simply had a bad night. We .re one among those who would be induced to give him an even break against Dundee in another tussle In fact, the upset may help White, w hen we come to think it over, (.’hat- lie has bepn getting ruily the past few months because many of the good lightweights have refuged to meet him They did not care to take a chance of getting hit with that left of his Charlie’s consequent In activity no doubt has shunted him off his boxing stride. White evi dently ha 11 been nut to finish his men quickly In his few recent conflicts and has neglected to box carefulv. a little thing he knows well how to do. He'll come back, ail right, ha\ ing learned his good lesson in the combat with the Dundee chap. But to get back to the Dunden pen non. He is but twenty years old and !. Lae lived in New York since his boy - f hood. He started boxing in ItHO. this! being his fourth seaaon as a ml.’ ! flinger Monteith Picks a Name. Scotty Monteith, one of the j shrewdest of the New York cotorie of managers, took Young f’arrora under hi* 1 wing aftej looking b in' over intently in a few of his early flights. Scotiv is n genuine Scot himself and haila from Dundee, too. He realized the name Carrora would never do for a topnotch fighter aurh hs he hoped to make of the lad from Sunny Italy, So lie named him after his home town of Dundee and picked out John, a good fighting name, an his front monicker. Carrora since has made the name Dundee famous in the ring and Montieth mnv take him over some day to show the folks in Scotland. Dundee fought fourteen four-round bouts in New York and Brooklyn in 1910 and whs credited with the ahade in all of them, so Monteith writes He wa.« extremely bury 1n 1911, box ing no less than 45 times without getting a real licking Among his opponents were Mike Malta. Frankie Fleming Kid Goodman. Young Mc Govern. Young Packey Hommey. Ed die Sherman, Young Brown. Ty <’ohb. Tommy Houck. Young Shugrue. Young Cohen. Young Ketchell. Harry Tracey. Bobby Reynolds and Tom- mv O’Toole. That's a mighty rough outfit to tackle Lost to Charlie. I#ast year he battled nineteen times rs .a featherweight with only one decided reverse. That was an artis tic trimming at Syracuse. N. Y.. handed him by the same < harlle White who boxed him Thursday in the South. White gave Dundee a dandy licking that night and sent aim hack to New York in bad shape. Among Dundee's other 1912 for* were Eddie O’Keefe. Young AN agner. Kid Julian. Pa« ev Hommey. Patsy Kline Mart Brock. Johnny Kilbnne Hen rounds, no derision, in New York). George Kirkwood, Harry Thomas and Pa! Moore Another hard gang to handle Kllbane shad ed him. but Dundee did better against the champion than with White. Dundee hustled 1 o the coast at s»nrr of the 191J boxing season. He got into two <rcraps with Jack White Charlie's brother In the first he won the decision after 20 round* and in ;De* second he Hopped Jack before the limit. He also stopped Frankie (’oTiIey. Then Tom McCarev sent for Cham pion Kilbane, Dundee being held as j the logical challenger for the feather : weight championship. Dundee • ' topped ofT nil his previous good work by holding th« champion to an even break. Another Kilbane match was a cer tainty in time bad Dundee stuck w ith the feathers. But, sad to relate, he outgrew the Ir»v John took a shot at Tommv Dixort on July 4 at Al buquerque. Recently he la cad Mat Brock at New Orleans. Then came the White fight of last week. Bo look out for Dundee, you light weights Has only 20. weighs about 130 and is still growing a bit. He'll be big enough for Ritchie before many months have passed. Dundee has proved his clans and is entitled to serioua consideration. HARVARD ATHLETE TO WED. CAM BRIDGE. MA SS . Dec. 2 An nouncement was inode to-day by Mr. and .Mrs. (ffllen I.
