“HE-three stars that Atlanta has

Beppas, Jake Abel and Battling Budd
will get fnto action In ten-round en

Pappas, the little. Greek battler who
Pas fought his way into the front

to Aflanta after an absence of ahout
two years. Opposing him will be Ber

The appearance of Pappas in an At~

before the New Orleans boy became
the reigning champion.
For some time a bout betwesn Bat.
g Budd and Jake Abel has been
talked. At last the match has mate
riatized, and the two wll go on in a!
windaop affair. Tt will be ten rounds
to a decision, and shonld be a hum
mer Trom the opening bell. Abel un
questionably has had more experience
than Budd, and is faster on his feet.
But Budd's supporters feel that he
carries the difference in his punch.
The list of victims that Budd has
feft in his wake has preved bevond
m’nlnre that he can hit-—and hit
with either hand. While most
of MTvim knockouts have been scored
with his right, the left has done dam
r. Abel is fast, and can shower
ows, While they do not have the
force that Budd possesses, they can
weaken an opporvent. If Abel could
hit &s hard as Budd, there is no doubt
that he would be in a class with Ted
CE#™ lewis or any other welter
welght star.
The Yig show, with the local stars
e the leading figures, was decided on
for-several reasons, ™ the first place,
the fans know what they can do and
are assurod of some real fighting.
There will be no stalling, and, while
there may not be the finesse that
chaymrpions show, there will be more
hitting and more action. The prices
will be reduced so that the ring fol
lowers may sees the show for a rea
sonable sum.
As an opener, it is probadle that
Peter Groot and Tiud Conley will be
rematched. While (iroot earned a de
cigion over Conley in a slashing four
round affair, Bud believes that he can
offset this in a tonger hout. 4

‘Weather cioudy. Track good.
Bressler and Perry, Former
Crackers, Also Fighting Hard
for Berths Under Big Tent.
HE Southern Leaguers are stick- J
T ing in the majors.
Ten players who battled un-‘
der the standards of Dixie teams in
1917 are maintaining thus far a firm
grip on big league rosters. And. fur
thermore, it seems®as though the
;xreater number will stand the hard
pounding. The famoug Atlanta bat
tery—Rube Bressler and Cy Perkins—
iß numbered among thos¢ who are
keeping pace,
- If there i 8 one man who hurdled
from the Southern to the majors and
made good on the jump it is little Ol
lle O'Mara, who is playing third for
the Brooklyn Nationals., He was
placed in the Dodger line-up at the
outset of the exhibition season and
has not missed a game.
To become a regular at the very
start is a difficult trick to turn. And
OlHe O'Mara and Kid Caton, ‘the
diminutive shortstop who played with
Birmingham in 1917, are the only two
worthy of being considered as Su.
The other youngsters are getting their
bearings.
Perkins Making Good.
Cy Perkins is alternating with Mec-
Avoy behind the bat for Connie Maok
at Philadelphia. fle caught the shoots
and curves that Scott Perry directed
in the second battle with the Boston
Red Sox, and made a rather nice im
pression. If Perry becomes the star
that Connie Mack predicts, it is a safe
wager that his battery mate—Per
king—will go astride with the fame
of the pitcher.
Rube Bressler made a good impres
sfon when the Reds were on the
spring jaunt, but he could not keep
up. He is being held as a relief
twirler by Cincinnati, but the hand
some southpaw may yet win out.
Al Walters, the first catcher for the
New York Yankees, was injured just
before the American League season
was inaugurated, and this gave Mud
dy Ruel, with Memphis last vear, his
chance to assist in the backstopping.
He evidently caught nicely, judging
from the second victory that the Yan
kees won over the Washington club,
with Walter Johnson doing emergen
cy duty,
Vick on Reserve List.
It Elmer Miller, Ping Bodie or
Frank Gilhooley falters at the bat or
in the field, it is a pretty good hunch
to expect Sam Vick, with Memphis
last year, to break into the line—up,‘
While he lacks experience, it is the
opinion of Manager Huggins that he!
will come through later in fine style. |
Another Southern ILeaguer who is
held in immediate reserve is Tex Cov
ington, with the Boston Braves. When
Konetchy reportcd late this spring it
seemed as if the Texan would draw
the first-base assignment. However,
the big veteran deposed him. George
Stallings is impressed with Coving
ton's pinch hitting and his ability to
turn the hit and run trick.
There are several pitchers who may
be considered in the same class with
Rube Bressler. Dixie Walker, with
the Cubs; Tom Rogers, with the St.
Louis Browns, and Jack Scott, with
the Boston Braves, are rated as re
serve twirlers, but either may win a
regular’s birth before the campaign is
well under way.”
And then again, waivers may be
asked upon any of them within a
split-second.
It's a precarions pastime—bidding
for a major league position.

Chicks, 7: Travelers, 3.
MEMPHIS, TENN., April 20—
Memphis defeated I.ttle Roeck in a
ragged game here this afternoon, 7
to 3. A ccld west wind made the
game slow and poorly played.
Prieste started for Memphis, but
gave way te Vance after he had
walked two consecutive batters to
open the seventh, Young pitched for
Little Rock and was hit hard and
timely, errors by his teammates con
tributing to his defeat. Both clubs
scored in the first. Little Rock, when
Walsh was hit with the bases full, and |
Memphis, on a walk, a sacrifice and a
single,
The Travelers added another in the
seventh on two walks, a passed ball
and an infield out. The last run was
a gift, Moran being allowed to steal
second and third, and scoring on El
berfeld’s single.
The Chicks scored three in the sixth |
on Allilson’s walk, Cruthers’ two bag
ger, Carroll’'s infield out, RBratchi's
walk, Slattery’s single and Walsh's
two-base error on a throw to first.
Memphis added three more in the
ninth on Carroll's: walk, Bratchi’s
sacrifice, Fisher’'s error, Walsh’s sin
gle, D. Walsh's error and Hargraves’
walk,

How George Whitted
(By International News Service.)
NEW YORK, April 18.—" Y nave veen
asked several times why 1 ever let
George Whitted get away from the St.
Louis club,” said Miller Huggins a few
nights ago in a fanning bee. *“Waell,
the answer is that I was confronted
with a situation where I had to gamble
high for a player whe might help me‘
win a pennant. Whitted had not won |
a place as a regular with the Cardinals
in 1914, and was sitting on the bench.
1 needed a pitcher badly and knew that
my case was hopeles sis I failed to get
one. I discovered that Hum Perdue
might be had and 1 wnscgad to get him
as he always had pitched great ball
against my club. I gave up Ted Cather
and Whitted. Perdue did not come
through as I had 2oped and Whitted
later developed into a star. That is a
gamble that must go with practically
every trade.” ‘

French Champion Wears Weight-
J Shoes and Climbs Trees Be
fore Match—Londos Is Fast.
ONSTANT LEMARIN, the Ca
nadian champion wrestler, has
his own ideas about training.
While most of the thatmen are con
tent with doing road work and exer
cising in the gymnasium, the Cana
dian belleves in tree climbing. It is
his contention that nothing develops
the muscles as well as unconventional
methods.
He is regarded as the most perfect
ly developed specimen in the game.
His legs are much sturdier than Ed
Lewis’, and this he attributes to an
other stunt of his. LeMarin has a
pair of training shoes, with lead in
the bottom of them. Together they‘
will weigh nearly 15 pounds. The‘
effort necessary te lift these shoes
about ‘is such that it hardens the
muscles in the lower limbs.
Jim Londos, the Greek, has one ad- |
vantage over LeMarin, even if he is
some 30 pounds lighter. He is con
giderably faster on hig feet than Le-
Marin, and is quick-witted. While
LeMarin will be a favorite over the
Greek wrestler when they go to
the mat Wednesday night at the Au
ditorium, the supporters of the Greek
are of the opinion that he will throw
LeMarin if he ever gets his head
scissors on him. -
~ Strangler Lewis is a sort of super
man, but the Strangler was unable
to throw the lighter man within two
‘hours. When he barred his headlock,
L.eMarin gained a decision over him.
1 Both LeMarin and Londos are ex
pected in Atlanta Monday or Tues
day.
