SCHOOL, ATHLETICS.

Sammis, who last year played a
halfback position on the Bloomfield
High School team, is a member of the
Stevens freshmen eleven this season
Larry Dowd and John Martin, the
two Newark boys who are at Prince
ton, were taken along to New York
Saturday as substitutes on the Tiger
eleven.
East Orange High School has got
the forward pass down to perfection.
They used it exclusively against Stew
ems freshmen, sending Fisher, their
star end, for big gains on every at
tempt.
Newark High made but a sorry
showing against Erasmus Hall High
School. A big brace will have to be
taken by the blue and white.
East Orange High has a strong
kicker in Johnson. Besides aver
aging about forty yards on his punts,
he is an excellent drop kicker. as was
testified by his pretty goal from the
field in the Stevens freshmen game.

CANNOT PLAY IN ELIZABETH.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 30:-The New
York National League club has been
denied the right to play exhibition
games in Elizabeth, N. j., the New
ark Eastern League objecting. The
National Commission makes a wider
ruling on the subject than hitherto
announced. A former ruling was
made on an application by the Eliza
beth club and applied to the playing
season only, but in passing on the
New York application today the COM
mission declares that at no time
should such games be permitted I'M
less the club locally interested con-
sents, and that the club opposing any
national agreement club must have
no ineligible players.
The application of Lewis D, Wiltse,
who left the Baltimore club last sum
mel to join the New York team in the
outlaw league, for reinstatement was
denied today, the commission declar
ing there were no e~Xtenuating cir
cumstances to warrant his %reinstatc.
ment.

I'M The FIELD OF SPORTS /
.COLORED BASEBALL
LEAGUE is FORMED.

A meeting held in Brooklyn a few
days ago resulted in the formation
of the National Association of Col.
ored Baseball Clubs of the United
States and Cuba. The association
is composed of the Philadelphia
Giants Baseball Association, Inc, of
Philadelphia; the Cuban X-Giants, of
New York; the Cuban Giants, of
New York; the Royal Giants, of
Brooklyn, and the Cuban Stars. of
Havana, Cuba.
The organization was made a per-
manent one, and H. Walter Schlicht-
err, of the philadelphia Giants, was
elected president; j. w. Conner, of
the Royal Giants. vice president; j.
M. Bright, of the Cuban Giants, treas
urer; Manuel Camps, of the Cuban
Stars, and B. Lamar, jr., of the Gu
ban X-Giants, with the president,
board of trustees. Nat C. Strong, of
New York, was engaged as secretary.
as secretary.
The association is modelled on the
lines of the National and the Ameri-
can League white clubs, and the pur-
pose of the organization is for the
perpetuation of colored baseball by
surrounding 1t with such safeguards
as will warrant absolute public con
fidence in its integrity and methods
and maintaining a high standard of
skill and sportsmanship in it's players.
The protection of the property
rights of those engaged in colored
baseball as a business, without sac
rificing the spirit of competition in
the conduct of the game.
The promotion of the welfare OF
colored ball players as a class by per-
fecting them in their profession and
enabling them to secure adequate
compensation for experiences.
The organization vas made neces
sary by the financial results of the
season Of 1906, when every owner OF
a colored ball club in this vicinity
lost money, due to the exorbitant sal,
aries paid to the players and the keen
competition among the various clubs.
The idea Is to place colored base
ball on a solid business basis and &c
protect both players and managers
and prevent jumping from one clut
to another on the slightest pretext,
as was done this last eason 1t is in.
tended to protect the managers from
INSCRIPTIONS and unreliable mana,
gers of independent clubs who en-
gage the colored clubs and uncere-
moniously cancel the dates at the
last moment If SO inclined. 1t is in.
tended to 'cut OUT all such clubs
which treat any of the national agree
ment clubs in that manner.
