BASKET BALL MANAGERS MEET

There was meeting of the managers of
the Militia league last night I'm the office
OF Lieutenant II. c. Dubois for the pur-
season. Eleven OF the teams composing
the league had representatives present
and much business was the result. The
nrst business 10 come before the body
was the election OF officers. They were:
Lieutenant Henry ID. c. Dubois OF the
Cavalry staf. president and Lieutenant
@. w. Danielson or Company u, First
Regiment. secretary and treasurer.
II was decided 10 play games on one
night week in Pawtucket. and on two
nights each week I'm this city. BY this
arrangement there will be a total OF four
games week in this city and two in
Pawtucket. 1t may be found advisable
10 hold games three nights a week in
this city, but for the present the former
play Will probably be tried. II was first
intended that each team would be able
to meet all the other TENS twice. but
such plan would necessitate several of
the teams playing two games week.
The question OF a hall in which to hold
rhe games Is still agitatins the league
managers, but the committee hopes 10
announce decision Ia the near future.
Entries for the championship close on
Saturday night and soon after that time
the schedule will be given out.
There are II teams in the league so
far, and one other is practically certain
TO enter and possibly still another, MAX
ing n total OF Is teams.
The teams entered so far are the fol-
lowing: Companies A, Il, G and II OF the
First Regiment, Companies h and T.,
Second Regiment; First Separate Com
pany. Troop b. Battery A. First Ma
chine Gun Battery and Hopistal Corps
IL is almost certain that Company H.
Second Regiment will enter Also and
possibly Troop A.
The question OF a suitable uniform for
the teams was discussed, but It was de-
cided to allow the teams to select any
uniform that they saw At. Applications
for the positions OF umpires and referees
at the league games were received and
placed on file. At the next meeting
which will be held next week, the sched-
ule will probably be made up. and an
effort will be made to start the season
early next month.

Sullivan OF West1eld. Mass, beat George
Sundstrom OF Worcester here last night.
The men were matched for 10 rounds,

and sending him to the floor This blow
practically won the tight, though Sund-
strom took the count several times In
rapid succession.
A hot body blow kept him to the floor

GOLF.

Yesterday the semi-finals OF the tour
nament for the Women's State Golf
championship were played off on the
links OF the Wannamoiset club with
Misses Congdon and Brownen as the
winners. The former is of the Agawam
club while the latter Is OF the Home
club. and II is thus made possible for a
representative OF each OF the two most
prominent clubs OF the state TO fight for
honors in the finals today.
The first pair to finish their match yes
terday were Miss Congdon and Mrs. H.
b. Ellis, the latter coming from the
Choppequonsett. IL was expected that
this match would be close one and that
the contest would be a close race for the
honors. But, while Miss Congdon did
not play the excellent golf OF the previ-
Gus day, she put up a strong game, and
Mrs. Ellis was never I'm the running. The
winners first round was negotiated in
bs: this score WAS enough TO put her 4
up on the round and the match was over
at the 18th hole, Mrs. Ellis being down
with l TO go. The bye holes were not
played.
The other match was between Miss
BrowneH and Miss Louise Hunt, who de-
feated Miss Hazard. This match was
q trifie closer. but even then Miss Brown
nell's game was too strong for her op-
ponent, and the match ended at the 18th
hole, Miss Brownell winning by up and
3 to play.
Owing to the unpleasant weather there
were few people out TO see the play yes
terday. but with better conditions today
quite n gallery will probably be in evi-
dence. since a close match may be ex-
