Barton Heights
Joins Capital
City League

Judging from the enthusiasm dis
played at the meeting of the Capital
City league held Wednesday night the
rivalry this year will be most keen,
and certainly afford the public some
stirring encounters. Very important
business was transacted, including
the adoption of schedule and the filling
of the vacancy caused by the with
drawl OF the Athletics-whose place
was taken by the Barton Heights
team, winners OF the Old Dominion
league pennant last year. The COM
mittee appointed for the purpose of
redrafting the playing rules had been
unable to get together and so soon
as they can complete their work the
league will be ready to start. The
league was in prosperous condition
and all the managers were very much
enthused with their prosp ects for this
season. Playing fields have been Sc
cured and II only now remains for the
weather to be suspicious for the open
ing on April 9Th. Twenty games will
be played. ending Saturday, August
2Srd. The league this season will be
composed of the Battle Axe, Collie
gians, Grays, Southern Bell, Ashland
and Barton Heights, and on their ros-
ters are numbered the best OF the anna

Especial to The Richmond Virgtnian.J
ASHLAND, VA, Feb. 27.--so far Al
the Yellow Jackets are concerned, to-
morrow night will end the first bas-
ketball cham ionsi1ip series ever arr
ranged between the four rival col
eges, composing the Eastern Virginia
league. namely, Randolph Macon,
Hampden- Sidney Richmond college
and william and Mary.
In the game tomorrow night the ss-
ries will come to a crisis, probably, as
the outcome of this game will likely
decide the series, This game will be
between Randolph Macon and Will
liam and Mary, and will be played at
Ashland The last game of the series
viii be between William and Mary and
Hampden- Sidney, sometime next
week
Much interest has developed here
over the game tomorrow night both
from the fact that this game Will
probably decide the outcome OF the
series, although 1t is not the last
game, and from the fact that William
and Mary defeated Randolph Macon
at Williamsburg sometime ago. So,
no doubt. the game with the William
and Mary qulntette will be a hard
doiph- Macon at Williamsburg. this

Of playing on their own floor, which

templatfng yielding the game, much

The Yellow Jackets are holding
practice at night. which is kind OF
novelty here to become accustome ed

will probably be In a little better con-

Racing Rules
Are Amended
By Association

Al a largely attended congress OF
the American Trotting association,
held at the Auditorium hotel in Chi
cago, a new code OF rules and by
laws was adopted, and O number OF
the old rules were eliminated or
changed In an important manner.
It was expected considerable oppo-
sittcn to the rules as amended and
submitted by the rules COMMITTEES
would develop and there was quite
a spirited attack, led by delegate
from Indiana, on the legality OF the
congress itself. The contention OF
the insurgents was that inasmuch az
the trotting association originally was
Incorporated In Michigan and only
recently had qualified under the I'LL
nois law no valid action could be ia
ken at this time. On this point Vice
President GIN. OF Milwaukee, made
some illuminating statements which
so thoroughly convinced majority
of the delegates they were legally ca
pable of acting on the matters in
question that they voted to go ahead
Then the rules were read one by
one and in most cases they were
adopted without change. When the
question of hobbies came up theirs
was no disposition to continue last
years rule. which provided for Their
abolition by 1915. Finally 1t was
moved that 'the straps" be barred
from races for three-year-olds and
under, and this was done.
Under the new rules all fines i'm
posed on drivers and owners will &C

stitute providing that such fines &C

was offered and debated at some
length, but finally voted down.
The new-fangled and old-time sys
TENS Of racing likewise afforded op
portunity for much debate. There
was q motion that all systems cxcep
the point" brand be dropped, bu
this was easily defeated. Then &

Finally the new rule was made to In

Big League Camps

There has been a big shake-up in

strange coincidence. all five Of the
teams which were satisfied with their
training quarters last spring finished
either one, two or three. The Ave
clubs are the Giants and Pirates, Of
the National league. and the Red Sox,
Climbers and Athletics, OF the Ameri~
can league.
Every State of the former Confed-
