Kitty League Will Have
Some Fast Players
This Time.
NAME NOT CHANGED.
New President Is a Native
of Iowa and Is Well
Informed.

Prospects are brighter than ever
for the K. /. T. League the coming
season. The owners of the various
clubs have their lines out for fast
youngsters, and number of con-
tracts already signed call for large
salaries. Parks all over the circuit
will be improved, except at Prince
ton, Ind, which city was just taken
in, Where new park will be built a
short distance from the city on the
traction line. At Paducah con-
tract has been let for a new grand
stand that will cost $500. A por-
ton of it will be steel. The park is
to be enlarged and the grounds
made level. Cairo has one of the
'prettiest parks Of any city its size in
the country,
The newly elected president of the
league, Charles Brown. is a young
man of considerable base ball knowl-
edge, having played in a number of
minor leagues, and is very popular
wherever known. He is a native of
Iowa and is said to have an genial
disposition. In short time he will
name the schedule committee, also
umpires.
Reports that the name of the X. |.
T. League has been changed are err
roneous. The little league has made
an excellent reputation under that
title, and although there is no Ten
.nessee city in it the coming season,
the name will remain the same, No
league of the same age, two seasons,
has turned out as many stars as tie
Kitty" Among the number is
Charlie Street, catcher for Cincin-
natl, who started in 1903 with Hop
kinsville.
Paducah won the rag last season
and Cairo the first season. The bit
terest rivalry is between these two
cities. When Paducah plays at Cal
70 or Cairo at Paducah, large crowds
are certain.
AS Paducah and Cairo have won the
pennant, Henderson, Hopkinsville,
Vincennes and Princeton are going
to muster fast teams to try and take
it the coming season.
Concerning the Kitty" league

UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC RUss,

New York, May 22.--There is trouble
In sight over the new eligibility rules
adopted by Harvard and Yale, which
are to the effect that an athlete, who,
prior to the age Of nineteen, had re.
ceived cash for his athletic ability,
could, after the lapse Of two years, be
reinstated, at the discretion Of the col.
lege authorities.
The adoption Of this rule is in direct
violation Of the constitutions OF both
the intercollegiate associations and the
A. A. U.
This fact was pointed out by James
f. Sullivan, the secretary Of the A. A.
u, yesterday, and he SAID that the A.
A. U. would await the action OF the
intercollegiate body before doing any.
thing in the matter.
II the intercollegiate association fails
to take action in the matter, Mr.. Sui.
livan says that "in the interest Of pure
amateurism, the A. A. u, which gov.
ems amateur sport in this country,
would be obliged to go on record, and
forcibly, at that"
Mr.. Sullivan also said that he re.
garded the new rule as detrimental to
sport, as 1t would enable a college to
whitewash professional, and he
thought that 1t would in time react
very strongly on Harvard and Yale.
