THE County League managers
have sent a communication to
the City League managers ask
J ing them to effect an agreement that
will prohibit the Jumping of a player
from one league to another. The ques-
ton will be taken up at the mex meet
ing of the City League, and probably
won't be agreed to this year, L tic
idea shows that sandlot baseball leagues
are thinking right. In making the sug-
gestion, the public can see the step in
the right direction. 1t is not too san
guiDe TO say that the next few years
will see Newark take rank with most
cities in the country as a great sand
lot. league" town. Playing under rule
No, 50, the great scmi-professionals of
st. Louis, Chicago and Cincinnati is
not Il of the question for even the
near future.
Rule No. 80. as adopted by the Ma
tional Commission, would allow semi
professional league clubs playing un-
der it all the privileges of professional
league clubs for the season they are
playing. 1t allows no reserve right to
the clubs over players.

II +Danny Savage and Tom Messen-
ger, representing Clayton Wildfang,
can agree on the Long Acre Club,
Billy Newman will stage a ten-round
bout between the two men in the near
future. Manager Golden, for Danny
Savage, thinks his man can beat Wild
fang; in fact, he challenges all light
weights. Billy Newman was to meet
Messenger today TO talk things over.
Golden was to have sent Jim Savage
against Jack Twin Sullivan Friday
night, according to Golden. at the Ma
tional Sporting Club, but Jirn's bad
wrists would not permit him to go on.
The Arinory A. a., of Boston, is trying
to stage a return match between Perky
FLYNN and Jim Savage, and if the club
makes the right inducements the
match will be made.
Winton e. Barker, of st. Louis, who
financed the recent trip of the Pill
grims' to this country, intends to try to
get Larry Holden, the manager OF n
Fan Rivers, to take a trip West this
fall, playing exhibition games all along
the line until st. Louis is reached. At
this distance it looks as if a trip Xix
that would be a success. Why not have
the American cup tie winner make the
trip?
Here's a chance for boys who, in
clined pugilistically. are looking to
climb the Jailed of fame as have Young
O'Leary, Knockout Brown, Willie
Beecher, Kid Butts and Frank Con-
ley. The Long Acre Club, which last
year brought out the above boys at it's
Saturday night stays, last Saturday
night resumed operations.
I'M . o
There's no use of talking. If Man.
aser McCsinnity attempts TO use Bob
Ganley instead of Benny Meyer in the
outfeld he'll make a big mistake, and
Joe doesn't want to make mistakes this
year, either. We'd ooner have n
Benny Meyer in the game than two
Bob Ganley's. Benny's pepper is
worth a great deal to the team.

When Tommy Burns allows Bill Lang
to 20 twenty rounds with him and
Tommy gets a decision on points, then
is hooted, there isn't much doubt that
the American has struck a ~toboggan.
