matters pertaining to the formation OF
the circuit, and the final disposition OF
its affairs so that Ii will be IN good shape
to open the season "wednesday week.
All who are in any way interested In the
affairs OF the league are requested TO be
, present at the meeting that their view
in regard to several situations may be
had.
The Railroad Y. NJ G. 4. League practI-
cally settled all its affairs last night. and
is now ready to. open its season! which
is scheduled for MAY ~. Southern Rail-
way and linton Station will be the two
teens between which the opening con-
make the opening day sort OF gala af-
fair. and have some official toss out the
first ball July y. instead of July IS,
has been decided on as closing date.
At the meeting Of the league off1cials
last night the United States Express
nine vas admitted to the league, in place
OF the Adams team. which dropped out
this spring to join the District circuit.
The newcomers have stated that they
can get together a good aggregation OF
ball tossers, and will be in the race from
the start.
II the Eastern Presbyterian Church
fails to land a berth in the Sunday School
League it will organize an independent
team to play throughout the coming sea-
son. The club has got together a strong
bunch Of ball tossers, and will be in the
running anyway. whether or not it Is
given place in the league.
Neither Kelly. Harris nor Busber has
made good with the Baltimore Eastern
League club. The former is still re
as soon as a berth can be found for him.
1t is fairly certain that he will go to the
Albany club in the New York State
League: Busher has already been sold to

League. Harris seemed to know the game
well enough to play in the Eastern
League, but did not possess the natural
ability. while in the case of Busher just
the opposite seemed to be the reason for
getting rid Of him. 1t was given out
when ne was sold that he needed season
ing and that there was no place where he
could get more Of it than under Pete
Cassidy. who has charge of the Whining
ton club.
There is not likely to be much fussing
over Busher in the Capital City League
after all IL he goes to the Wilmington
club for although the Trt-States Is not
slow circuit by any means he should
be able to make good in that organiZa-
ton. 1t was thought that some trouble
would be experienced in regard to Busher
playing in the Capital City League mad
In that circuit claimed to have his serv-
ices under contract.
Both the Cornell Company and the
Pumping Station managers have stated
that he would be seen in the uniform OF
| their respective teams. but 1t is probable
that he will not represent either now
since he has the opportunity to make
good In a class B circuit. 1t is certain
that Busher's name is affixed to a con
tract held by the manager of the Pump
ing Station team. and II will be inter
esting to note, provided he does not max.
good in his new berth, just what will bt
the outcome of the controversy over him
Grason, who IS coaching the Maryland
Agricultural College team. and who i,
has been given out would play with the
Agricultural Department this season
may possibly be seen in the uniform OF
the Interior Department instead 1,
was learned that definite arrangements
have not been made with him by the
Agricultural Department, and it is doubt
full II he will play with that club.
Duckett.. who pitched the no-hit game
against Rock Hill College last Saturday,
has been secured by the Agricultural De-
partment to do the bulk of the work in
the box during the coming season. He
has won two games for the Aggies so far
this season and should make a winning
pitcher in the Departmental League.
