encouragement, rather than the oppo-

ter feels IL such a threat were made by
the A. A. U. official-that 1t is the result
Of alarm felt on the latter's part.
1t is a weH-known and significant fact
that since the organization OF the Dis
trict Federation, a little more than q
year ago, many of the city's best ath-
letes have severed their relations with
the older body. The majority Of ath-
Ietic meets held in Washington Since the
Federation's organization, have been
held under its auspices-and the threat
of the A. A. U. to suspend those Of its
members who participate in the Fedora
ton meets, Is taken as an indication OF
alarm, Tor fear It loses what little foot
hold 1t still holds as far as Washington
athletics are concerned.
Made Threats.
Threats of a similar nature have been
made previous to every set OF games
held here under the Federation's con-
troll. In the case of the Memorial Ath-
letic Club ten-mile run, all Of the par
ticipants were suspended and then re-
instated a day later. This Is nothing
short of a concession on the part OF
the A. A. o., and when 1t threatened
to outlaw the wrestlers who competed
in the National Guard tournament, week
before last, nothing Whatever was done

Amateur Commission Again Calls
Off Session on Account of
National Guard Meet.
OTHER CITIES ALL READY
Coming Season Expected to Be
Highly Successful, With Bob
Young Again at Head.
By BRYAN MORSE.

Interest in the National Guard indoor
meet Is given today for the reason fol
again postponing the annual meeting OF
the amateur baseball commission. De-
spite the fact that plans of organization
which includes the annual election of
officers are well under way. the presi-
dent deems Ii wise to set the meeting
for March IL.
President Robert H. Young, who
knows the amateur baseball situation
from start to finish, and has the various
leagues at heart is authority for calling
on the meeting. Be it known, however,
that the commission is violating the
emateur commission constitution, which
expressly states that the annual cleo
ton shall be held before the first day
OF March.
This Is no serious breach, for once the
baseball followers in the District get
the fever all matters pertaining to the
leagues win be carried through with
dispatch and the well ordered machine
VIII be gotten into swing for what
promises to be a successful season.
Others In Line.
Other cities have gotten things into
their plans pretty well shaped. Here,
however, the inauguration has cut in on
the baseball activities and the league
leaders are not ready to take up their
plans Of reorganization.
According to Secretary Shurtleff, who
has charge of the cataloging of all the
amateur players, there will be some nine
or ten leagues in operation. The same
circuits will probably hold forth at the
various sand lots over the city and the
players which have been in line for the
past few years will take up their sum-
: mer play. Youngsters will come up
from the high schools and other smaller
teams and the veterans and heroes of
past summers will lay aside their
gloves and tell of the times when they
won games with home-run waIlops and
daring steals Of home.
Should Be Successful
All N all. the season of 1918 should be
as successful as any other that has
been recorded here. Manager Clarke
Griffith will lend ms aid to the ANA
teurs. 1t was due to him that the ANA
lteur day parade and pageant was SO
successful last season, and il is more
than likely that the event will again be
staged.
All OF the league leaders will show up
at the meeting next Monday, and it is
an open secret that President Bob
Young will again be rendered the job
as head of the organization Other Of
hcers whose work during the past three
years has been valuable and painstak-
ing WI undoubtedly be asked to serve
again.
