Protest Over Memorial Plan

Trouble.
LEAGUE PRESIDENT
DEMANDED MEDALS
Threat to Suspend Entire Club
Stirs the Mem
bers.

When the Catholic Young Mems Dioc-
esan Union meets at Union Hill to-
morrow. the Xavier Catholic Club. of
this city. will resign.
Alexander ]. Jacob the delegate of
the local organization, will attend the
meeting ard act as spokesman. The
members Of the xaviers are worked up
over the treatment they ailege they
have received from the union. They
claim they were sighted on the COM
naittee end, and not given any officials
in the field days.
TIE trouble started on Memorial Day,
when the Xaviers engaged in a dual
athletic meet with the st. Columbia
Catholic Club. The Xaviers' team.
which won easily, included Marcus
Brennan and John Beeer. both nora
fde members and ~weli-known athletes.
The 81. Columbas had several athletes
whom the Xaviers questioned. The
meet was allowed to go on, and Ber-
Eard J. Owens. of the T. a. b. s., of
this city, who acted as referee. notified
the Xaviers that the events in which
Brennan and Beger competed had been
= AAF9 - - a8E - 1+H-
the meet. and the cause given was that
neither Brennan nor Beger was regis
tered with the Catholic Amateur
League. The Xaviers, prior TO the
meet, were ready to advance the 25
cents registration fee, but there was
no authorized representative of the
league present, and Mr.. Owens allowed
the contestants to start without ask
ing any of them if they were regis
tered.
The case was presented TO }. NJ.
Walker. of Philadelphia, president of
the league, and he forwarded several
letters 20 Mr.. Jacob, i%nstructing him
10 return the medals, but at no time,
it is said, did he investigate.
a letter signed by Mr.. Walker vas
received by Mr.. jacob yesterday in
which the writer threatened to suspend
the entire Xavier Catholic Club if the
medals were not in by C o'clock tonight.
The Xaviers claim that the affair was
planned by Owens and others. In dis
cussing the case. Joseph F. Papseoe,
president of the Xavier, said:
"If you are rot in the clique you
might as we'll get out. It's as plain as
daylight. They were aware that we
would make a game fight for the cham
pionship this year with such athletes
as Brennan. Beger. the Oberlens, Cur
ley. Pfeffer, Gehring and others. Our
relay team woul win without a doubt,
hence they want 10 force US out. But
we will not give them the chance. We
will go out like the Grange Valley,
BayIey Lyceum, and the Paterson clubs
did.
I'VE will o allow the league TO sus-
pend all Of our athletes, and we will
convince Mr.. Walker that it was not
FREEMAN, Beger, nor our clubs fault,
hut the fault OF the referees. for allow
ing them to start. We stood ready to
pay the small fee"
