BOSTON. Mass. July 30.-Initial steps
will be taken this week for the fOrma-
ton Of an organization OF amateur ath-

Amateur Athletic Union.
It e entirely within the bounds OF pos
sibHity that when this new organiza-
ton gets under way and attains its full
strength Il Will branch out and eventu-
ally become Of national rather than Of
sectional scope.

The present movement has been pre-
cipitated By the conflict between the
athletes and the New England Associa-

There are in New England today

these a statement will eventually be

Mr.. Eaton said today: There are not
the number Of young men interested in
athletics today that there should be.
outside, perhaps, Of college circles. The
principal reason for this is that the
athletic meetings have not in the main
been handled in the right manner.
Cooperation Needed.
NO one knows this better than the
athletes who have participated in meet

reason for this is partially with the New
