New York. March 1S-ArchcishOp John NJ. Farley of the Catholic arch diocese of New York, has, through his counsel announced that he Is mt op- posed to amateur ba s.ha.l games played Sunday afternoon fo: physical exercise and not for monev, and p!o- vided always that the games do not disturb or interfere with church ser vices. Eugene A Phibin, his counsel, a few days ago sent the following to an assemblyman at Albany, where the legislature is considering Sunday baseball game bill.
 His grace has heretofore made clear that he has no objection what soever to diversions On Sunday that are designed merely to afford "eason- able recreation and which are not of Q nature calculated b disturb those who are attending church or other wise engaged in religious exercises" :"
 Bishop Charles A. Co;toa of the Catholic diocese of Buffalo and Bi- shop William Doane cf the Ep.sco- palan diocese of Albany and hund- reds of clergymen of 2li denomina- tions are fighting the measure. They say it is another step in the lire with the policy prevailing in France where Sunday is treated as a joke
