NEW YORK, Feb. rs.
INTERCOLLEGIATE athletic leaders

ties are In New York today for the
annual meeting of the intercollegiate
Association of Amateur Athletes of
America The principal topics pro-
grained for discussion were the selet-
ton of the place of holding the track
and field championship games and the
disposal of the rule barring freshmen
from participation In the sports.
Although Syracuse was decided upon
some time ago by the executive com

would be held. 1t was announced early
in the day that Harvard. Yale, Penn
s%ylvan1a, Princeton, Williams. Amherst
and Dartmouth would make a deter
mined effort to have the games held in
the stadium at Cambridge. The chief
objection to the Syracuse track is that
il is not yet In proper condition. and
furthermore the stralghtaway for the

r oSEPH McDONOUGH. Of West Or
ange. who was so successful In his
management OF the Orange Valley
baseball team, may not be found In the
managerial robes this year, BECAUSE he
Is firing of the part and believes some
one else should take up the task. Zoe
said yesterday he would not act again
this season.
The Orange Valley club, however,
will probably have a team in the field
again. as no announcement to the con-
trary has been made. Orange is a
good ball town. and the crowds are
legion In turning out by the thousands
to witness the games in the valley.
Joe McDonough has been most sue
cessful during the time he has had
charge of the valley organizations, and
gathered together an aggregation OF
players that were the cream OF the
section. Joe was always a hare worker
and this counted In the gaining of
credit. He was rated as one OF the
squarest managers In the game.
A fast semi-professional team will
play games this year on the Orange
Oval Playground, near the Grove st cot
depot of the Lackawanna railroad. In
East Orange. Dave Driscoll, we'll
known as a manager In this section,
who lives In South Orange, has re-
quested the Fairgrounds Commission
to permit him to gather together an
aggregation of former college stars, of
whom there are many In the Oranges,
to pley Saturday afternoon games on
the oval. and d committee has been
named to confer with him further re-
garding the arranging of details. A re-
cent court decision allows the commits
sion to charge an admission fee to
ball games at the oval.
There is talk among local Catholic
organizations that a baseball league
