championship in an added game, having
been tied UP at the end of the series.

this year Western has played con-
sistent baseball. and has been coached
with the idea of taking all sorts of
chances and every possible opening.
The real strength of the Tech team is
not known because of the numerous
shifts which have been made. Several

TO REPORT
CHANGES TO SEC'Y
Officials of Teams Do Not Inform Commission When
Men Are Shifted From One Organization to Another.
Chism Suspended.

What may result in a general investi-
cation in the leagues and calling to
account the laxities of the various Sec
retaries is the suspension of Player
Chism, of the Park A. c., who was
found to have signed two contracts.
Complaint has been made time and
again fby Secretary III. " Shurtleff. of
the amateur commission, that the sec
retaries do not inform him of the
changes which take place in their or
ganizations.
Player Chism. of the Park Athletic
Club, who was automatically suspended
for signing two contracts under the
commission, will remain out until his
case can. be definitely settled before the
commission.
According to the players side of the
Controversy he signed with the Navy
Yard team of the Capital City League
Manager La Clair had released him.
Manager La Clair stated to Secretary II.
VJShurtleff; of the amateur commission,
that he had not released the player
who was also signed with the Park
Athletic Club of the Northern Associa-
ton.
Chisms suspension is similar to sew
eral others that have occurred this
OF the games by reason of not knowing
whether they had been released. Lax
ity in clerical work has caused the
secretary of the commission hours OF
labor where a moment could have been
taken TO notify him of releases.
Secretary and Mrs. Fl. V. Shurtleff
who handle the releases and contracts
OF the commission which involves more
than 1000 names, are constantly check
ing and keeping tabs on all the players
players who have signed two contracts
are being set down.
