Manhattan Cricket Club. which in the championship
series of that organization has won eight games ana
lost only two thus receiving a percentage OF ~"
against its nearest competitors record OF four games
von two lost three drawn and percentage 500. has
not won the championship and cannot receive the
nennant of that organization. The decision Is based
on the ground that the Manhattan Club allowed TWO
men TO play on its League team who properly be-
longed TO its Association eleven. Advantage of this
technlcality was taken the last meeting OF the as
soc,tion and the games which Manhattan won
against Paterson, ST. Georges Athletic club and
Kings County ST. George Club were awarded 10 the
losing clubs The action prevents the Manhattan Club
