 Good Ball News.
 The managers of the City Amateur league held the most important meet ing of the year last night. at the St Joseph rooms and it was drawing close to eleven o'clock when the business was at an end. Every team was rep resented although it was rumored some time before the meeting that the North End team was to drop out. This rumOr was knocked into cooked hat when Manager Moreau appeared and he had all the other managers groggy when it came to submit the lists of players for he had an array of talent that will make the other chaps hustle light from the tap of the bell. In fact every manager had got hustle on himself and great were the line-ups submitted by each. The schedule was prepared by Manager Kilmarttn of the Pastimes and Manager Kelly of the Washington Hills. The schedule calls for fifteen games divided into three periods. The schedule is as follows:
 The league will open on April 30 with these teams contesting:
 F April 3O-Pastimes vs. Merrimacs, Brooklyn vs. North Ends, St Joseph's vs Washington Hills. ..
 May 7-Pastimes ys. Brooklyns, Merrimacs vs St Joseph's, North Ends vs. Washington Hills. a-
 May 14-Pastimes vs. St Joseph's, Merrimacs vs. North Ends, Brooklyns vs. Washington Hill. F%,f #
 May, 21-Pastimes vs. North Ends, Brooklyns vs. St Joseph's, Merrimacs vs. Washington Hill.
 May 2S-Pastimes vs. Washington Hill, Merrimacs vs. Brookyns, North Ends vs. St Joseph's.
 That will end the first period. On the sixth Sunday it has been custom ary for the teams to play off any post poned games if there were any but this year there will be change. The Greater Waterbury League sent in a communication asking for the sixth Sunday on each series in order to give their teams a chance in the afternoon. The communication met with instant approval and all the managers voted to grant the request of the smaller lea gue and give them the sixth Sunday after each series. The second series will begin on June II and the same schedule will be followed as in the first series. So it will continue in the third series and the season will end with the regular games on August 2o. But if there are any postponed games they will be played off and the season will be extended until the game are
 The spaIding ball xss adptei for use this year and E. J. Donahue was selected to furnish the balls this sea son as he has in the past. The umpire question came up for little considera' tion and but one application was re- ported. The umpires will be selected at the next meeting. Each manager was given his share of tickets for the dance which is to be given by the lea gue at City hall on April 2S and 1t is expected that this will be the biggest crowd that ever attended dance on that evening.
 The most important matter transact Nl last evening was the submission by the managers of the list of players which each claimed for his team. It will be found by perusal of the teams that several players are claimed by ser eral managers.
