Amateur day." and other items of in
terest to those connected with amateur
ball will be disposed of.
Several cases of players who have been
suspended for signing two contracts and
for other reasons will be heard and elm
mated, but the main transaction in
business line is the arrangements to be
made for the day set aside for the anna
tours at the American League Park. 1t is
desired that as many managers of the
different teams in the circuits attend, as
an exact line on just how many and what
teams will enter the parade will have
TO be secured.
Exact data on the program for the day
will not be had until the Nationals re-
turn and President Young has had
chance to interview Manager Griffith. 1t
is Mr. Youngs desire to communicate to
Mr.. Griffith just how many teams he ex-
poets to have lined up for the occasion.
and whatever other data may be neces-
sary.

this long. There is no team in the circuit
that looks anywhere near as strong as
Mike McDonald's crew. and there is no
reason to believe anything other than
that from now on 1T Will have an easy
stretch TO the pennant.
A triple tie in the Independence League
for second place is again in effect. Yes
terdays win by Manhattan over the
National club placed that nine on even
terms with the Pepco and Southland az
gregatlons
While the Aloysius and National clubs
seem unable To WIN games III tic iHuc-
pendence circuit, they are just strong
enough to give any of the other clubs
close run for games. The other day the
National club gave the Pepco team all
il wanted to win Wednesday the Alloy
sius club gave Loff1er its hands full. and
lost by only one run, and yesterday the
Manhattan nine could beat the Natlonal
club no worse than by ) to score.
