Irregularities in Recent

NEW YORK, Dec. 16-One OF the
most important meetings IN the history
OF the registration committee Of the Met
Spolitan Association Of the Amateur
Athletic Union VIII be held at St Bar
tholomew Athletic Club tomorrow night.
For weeks Chairman Nevin and Secre-
tary Hughes have been following the
charges OF professionalism and irrggu-
laritieS that nave manifested themselves
and from all Indications the crisis has
betn reached.
IL would not be a bit surprising to see
some heads fan. The situation in Ger
tain sports has caused a great deal Of
disoJ ssion lately. and as the Metropoli-
tan Association is responsible for the
action Of the clubs IN fits district, there
must be a cleaning UP.
They All Mean Business.
There have been several private con-
ferenGes between the president and the
registration committee, and the situa-
ton has been freely gone over. Mr..
Sullivan will stand for no monkey BUSH
ness. and he 50 informed the members
OF the registration committee The lat

fore the cOnrs-ittee. as well as the ath-

the Amateur Athletic Union officials. u
has put a-damper on the sport and must

that the registration COMMITTEES VIII

Cornell Drops Boat
Building Business;
Lacked Facilities
Contract Closed With Firm
To Furnish Shells for
Regatta.

ITHACA, N. Y, Dec. I6.-The Cornell
Athletic Association has given up the
business OF building and repairing boats,
having entered into a contract with the
firm OF Thomas & Grant, of Ithaca. to
do that work for the association here
after.
In the past reasons Cornell made
money out OF building boats for other
colleges and selling of the secondhand
Fights and fours TO some OF the others.
In the race on the Hudson at Pough-
keepsie, last June, Cornell, Wisconsin,
the Naval Academy, and Pennsylvania
were equipped with boats built by John
HOyle for the Cornell association. Thus
HOyle boats finished first, third and
fourth. However, the Cornell association
VIII not lose the skill of Hoyle as he
has been retained by Thomas & Grant
as builder and designer.
Steward Explains
Judge Irvine. the Cornell member Of
the board of stewards of the Inter
collegiate Rowing Association. said re-
Gently:
The Athletic association undertook to
build it's own shells because of the
expense and Inconvenience of having
the work done elsewhere. 1t was hoped
that by utilizing in its shops the ser
vices Of Mr.. Hoyle in building shells
for other institutions the expense might
he materially reduced. But the assO-
citation is not a manufacturing or COM
merctal corporation; II could not engage
in work for others except incidentally.
and 1t had neither the disposition nor
me legal power to expand the boat
building business to such an extent as
vas found necessary IN order to make

eresting Deductions.

This shows that Washington spent
$3.50 more than any club in the Amer
lean League for drafted players, St
Louis and Detroit coming next with
$3.50 each. Washington ranks lowest
in the list OF purchases, having spent
$500 In that manner. St. Louis. II will
be noted. has almost an entirely new
team for next season, yet has spent but
5000 in purchases. Boston. which Is
making one Of the most expensive and
desperate struggles in recent baseball
history to get out of a rut. has already
expended the enormous sum OF $4,000
in buying new players and only $3.50
in drafts.
The difference in the purchase and
draft expenditures OF Boston and Wash

That Comiskey IS not going 70 make
radical changes In his team because IL
did not win the pennant again last year
is shown by the fact he has spent only
$1,000 In purchases and drafts, the
smallest sum or any team In the league.

WAITSBURG TOO HEAVY.
Academy Team Goes Down in Second
Defeat at Hands of Washington


In the football game played yes
terday at Waitsburg between the high
school team of that city and the
Pendleton academy eleven, the for
mer team won by score of 16 to 0.
This makes. the second victory won
by the Waitsburg team. This is ac-
counted for partially by the fact that
the Washington team is much heavier
than the local one.
In the game yesterday Captain
Reeves, of the Academy eleven, was
crippled and his place thereafter was
filled by Ralph Shaw, the aggressive
quarterback. .
