CROSS COUNTRY RUNS BEST
Jack Moakley Says Sport Is the Greatest
Developer of ALI Games.

Jack Moakley, who is responsible for
the brilliant success Cornell has had in
cross-country running. cellar that the
sport is the greatest developer Of any
form of athletics. He says it is bound to
grow in favor with the American public,
and will some day have a wide vogue.
The weakness of this country in long-dis-
lance running has long been recognized,
and it Is the only sport In which Great
Britain is our superior.
THE only way to develop distance
men," Moakley says, "is through cross
country work, and 1t is up to us to edu-
cate the masses to the fact.
"One of the main reasons why Cornell
wins the cross-country intercollegiate
championship so often Is that the men
feel it is impossible to be beaten and go
into the game with a determination to
win hat carries them through. In spite
Of obstacles. This split of perseverance
gives Cornell a great advantage over
other colleges. Some day the others will
beat Cornell, ard 1t will be a good thing,
for the game Is not worth winning where
one team wins all the meets. It helps the
sport to nave defeats once in a while as
well as victories. The spirit of cross
country work, however, is not work for
individual, but for team honors.
Il don't think any one will beat Cor
nell next year, as there are a number of
men running who were not eligible this
year who will be available next year, so
If Cornell does not win another cham
pionship, the team that beats her will
have to be the best cro~ss-country team
this country has ever seem"

Baseball Club Quits
Old League to Enter Union.
DObbinS Reelected.

EASTON, Pa, Dec. 2s.-Representatives
of the Atlantic League clubs met at tie
Franklin House Yesterday in annual ses-
sion. The delegates from Newark, Brook
lyn and Reading formally turned in their
franchise to the league, the understanding
being that these cities are to be repre-
scented in the recently organized Union
League. 1t is expected that the respective
franchises will be transferred to Shamokin,
Shenandoah and Mt, Carmel.
President J. w. Dobbins, OF Newark and
part owner of the Allentown Club, was
reelected and will also attend to the duties
of the offices Of secretary and treasurer.
II was voted to increase his salary from
$500 to $1,000 a year.
William K. Murray represented Newark
at the meeting, Hugh Mae Kinnon appearct
for Allentown, Ambrose Hussey for Brook
lyn, Jacob Reuter- and Nathaniel Green
for Elizabeth, Thomas Golden for Potts.
Vile, Frank Siegfrled and George Correll
for Easton and James Mcclellan for
Tamaqua. The Tamnqua franchise, how
ever. Is to be transferred to Hazleton.
where grounds have already been secured.
Though there had been some talk OF
other candidates for the office of president
secretary-tre9surer, no names were pro-
posed and President Dobbins was unani-
mously chosen.
1t was the general opinion that Mt.
Carmel and Shamokin would be adj
mitted to the league. A circuit committee.
consisting Of Mesrs. Golden and Niece
ham,, was appointed. IL these two town
are taken In there will be five cities on
the circuit in which Sunday ball will be
Overwhelmingly, Elizabeth, Hazleton. Sha-
mokin, Mt. Carmel and Pottsville.
President Dobbins said after the meeting
that he would withdraw from the Allen
town Club and had already given Mac
Kinnon an option on his stock. He did not
intend, he said, to be interested in any
Atlantic League club next year.
President Lawson. of the Union League,
was present and said that the latter or
gstnization wished to maintain the best OF
with the Atlantic League. He had
decided, he said, to withdraw from tho
Atlantic League because he felt that con-
ditions in Reading were favorable for the
change of the Atlantic League club to tho
Union League.
1t was voted at the meeting that at
tempts should be renewed to secure en-
trance into organized baseball by an ad-
mission into the National Association.
Though reports have been rife that the
Atlantic League might invade Tri-State
League territory, it was stated after the
meeting that no move of this sort was
contemplated.

The changes to be made in remodeline
the Newark Eastern League baseball team
for 1908 will not affect the catching depart
ment, according to the statement of Man
ager Walter w. Burnham. Paul Krichell,
the Hartford boy, will be back In harness
and so will Nap Shea and Oscar Stanage
The local manager believes Krichell will
blossom ont into a valuable player next
year. His only fault last season was "los-
ing his head" in a pinch, and that can be
overcome by experience.
AS for Shea, he probably has another good
season or two in him. stanage is a player
whose value is not seen with the naked
eve. so to speak. Hugh Jennings, manager
of the champion Detroit American League
team, regarded the Californian good enough
to draft him, and when that failed, Pitcher
