the Marquette League was held last night
at the National Guard armory.
The first question that came up before
| the board for action was what should be
done about the Bioomingdale team. as 1t
| forfeited three games in succession, and
according to the constitution of the
league they are now not eligible to play.
| They were dropped from the league, but
| In order to give all square deal it was
decided that teams yet having games with
| them should get them by forfeit on the
day they are supposed to play them and
instead of playing them they should play
one of their postponed games.
| The next problem to come up before the
managers was to rearrange the schedule
SO as to work in some Of the postponed
games This was done after good bit
Of talking among the managers
| But In rearranging the schedule the
question came up whether tie games
should be PLAYED over or not. Manager
Luiuch of Compassionate greatly OPP
posed the playing over of these games.
But when a vote was taken 1t was found
that the majority had decided to play
them.
The following were present. Capt. Ed
| wards, Manager Robbins of Pension,
Manager Elicit OF Columbia, 1O1; Man
ager Harding OF st. Martin. Manager By
ram Of Tanglewood. Manager Luitich OF
