TEAMS BOL LSTERED
IN PENNANT RACES
Amateur League Managers Send Many Changes to Sec
retary H. V. Shurtef-Amateur Day on Saturday
Expected to Be Great Success.

Secretary H. V. Shurtleff Of the anna
teur commission, is a busy man these
days and will find himself classifying
and sorting contracts and releases Of
players for some time. AS July Is was
the last day in which the amateur play
ers could get releases and sign up with
other teams, the many players took ad-
vantage of the date and many will now
cast their lot with teams that have more
Of a show for pennant in another
league.
Managers, too, have put forth their
best efforts to land more promising ma
terial in the hope that they can land
the coveted honors, and the rosters of
many teams are likely to undergo slight
changes. The whole list of transfers
will be completed in short order so
that the fans and the commission can
have some idea of the teams as they
Will make flnal effort for the flag.
Many Of the managers are resting
content that they have enough good
players to capture the flag in their
league and have made no effort to get
more material. Some of the players
who have a hankering to be on a win
mng team have come forward with all
sorts of promises asking for their re-
leases; In the main many players will
like the shift to other teams but it
would seem better to have the teams
remain nearly intact as they were at
the seasons start rather than have a
fortified nine for the final rush to the
close of the season.
Amateur Day ought to boom from
now until Saturday, according to the
players and managers of the teams. 1t
is expected that thirty-five teams with
q ANN N1Yaxrt rtTNrw
eran baseball players now living in the
0ty will get together in the parade
now twice deferred. The patrons and
followers of the Nationals are going to
hear all sorts of classy cheering on
Saturday when the amateurs get into
line for the big day. Added to this
something startling in the way of col
ors Is promised for the teams all have
flashy looking baseball togs which are
sure to make hit with the fans at the
