The Braves, who have won the loop pennant race three years in succession, will have their hands full when they face the stars from the city teams of the Georgia-Alabama loop, namely the Atlanta Yankees, Rockdale Rawhides and Atlanta Paper Company Lions.

Now that the tight battle for the loop pennant is over, the Braves would like nothing better than to take the All-Stars in camp Sunday.
