Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1913-12-17

pen of Mr.. John Dods. illustrated by
photographs taken by Mr.. N. Lazar
nick, which articles are doubtless ol
great value to New Mexico, and this
section in particular, and will prove
Of great worth in interesting the peo
pie of our eastern states in the attrac
tions of the southwest, and,
| Whereas, Mr.. Dods and his asso
ciates have shown great generosity
and personal interest i'll the welfare
and progress of our state, as evi.
denced by the we'll written articles
referred to, and,
! Whereas, the chamber of com
merce of the city Of Santa Fe is de-
sirous of expressing its appreciation
of the effort of Mr.. Dods and his asso'
ciates, as well as our appreciation to
he publishers of the Motor Age for
the very favorable advertising which
they have given this section of the
southwest.
Therefore, be it resolved, by the
chamber of commerce of the city of
Santa Fe, that the thanks of this body,
individually and collectively, be ex-
tended to Mr.. J. P Dods Mr.. N. Laz'
arnick, Mr.. J. A. Harris and the Mo.
tor Age, for assistance to this section
of the southwest in the effort they
have made to bring the attention of
hn- orc
fractions and things of interest per-
tanning to our country, with the as
surances that this chamber of COM
merce greatly appreciates the work OF
the gentlemen referred to, and the CO.
operation with them of the Motor
Age"
Favor Game Preserve.
The chamber of commerce then Of
fered to extend every possible aid to
Ashley Pond, prominent resident OF
Roswell, who is planning to turn the
Ramon Vigil grant, rs miles from
Santa Fe. into a fine game preserve
for use of a club of well-to-do Detroit
people. There are over 10000 acres
in the grant, it is said, and it is plan
ned to fence the tract and build bung-
allows, large club house, hunting
lodges, etc. Ten men of Detroit have
already pledged $2500 each and 1t is
planned to get forty men of Detroit to
subscribe. The chamber OF commerce
will send out literature, maps, ETC., to
help the project.
Climate Booklets.
In the absence of Col. B. NJ. Cutting,
chairman of the publicity committee,
Secretary Van stone announced that
the climate booklets had cost $114.4o
and had been paid for; that a thou
sand of these booklets had been sent
to physicians in the Mississippi valley
and other physicians will be reached.
1t is realized that if Santa Fe is to
draw health-seekers, physicians in the
east and middle-west must be inform
ed of the climatic advantages of high
altitude and a location sheltered from
terrible winds.
Letterheads.
The illustrated envelopes have
proved a success that it was decided
to print letter heads to conform, al
lowing space for printed names and
addresses of purchasers.
A Splendid Map.
The members were much pleased
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1913-12-17

The above were striking features O.
the meeting Of the Santa Fe Chamber
Of Commerce hs.G last night In the
new chambers presided over by Presi
dent H. f. Dorman, with Secretary
George H. Van Stone keeping the min
utes.
Although the slippery streets, the
dense fog and the snow kept several
members at home, there was fairly
good attendance and the business be
fore the organization was dispatched
with old-time swiftness and enthus
iasm.
OF SURPRISING interest to many, OF
course, was the proposal to purchase
permanent headquarters in the old
adobe opposite the Cathedral. The
Santa Fe Club and city council have
decided to make that their home and
they said to the chamber of commerce:
Come with u.s." And the chamber of
commerce answered last night: Eyes. y
The chamber of commerce is to
have the central portion of the build
ing, provided the deal is put through.
There is an option on the building un.
til the middle of February.
'"Can we get separate mortgage?"
asked S. G. Cartwright. He was as
sured that the chamber of commerce
would act separately in this matter.
President Dorman explained the de-
tails of the project and J. w. Giddings
made the motion to have the plan ac-
cepted. 81 second the notion said
John v. Conway, who held blue print
of the famous adobe in his hand.
The motion was carried unanimous
ly.
Changes to Constitution.
AS announced some time ago it was
planned to make certain changes to
the constitution and these were ac-
cepted last night. This was one of
the amendments.
BE it resolved, That Article II Of
the constitution of this organization
be amended by adding thereto the fol-
lowing:
"(5) All members in arrears on
their dues for six months may, upon
recommendation of the executive com.
mittee and an affirmative vote. of the
chamber of commerce, be dropped from
the rolls for non-payment of Dues
The other amendment was:
"Be it resolved, That the constitu-
tion of the Santa Fe Chamber of
Commerce be and hereby is amended
as follows:
"Art. III, Sec. l. By striking out
after the word accompanied the
words by the admission fee which is
hereby fixed at five dollars and BY
adding after the words in advance
the words which dues are hereby nx'
ed at one dollar per month payable
quarterly in advance.
art. III. By adding Sec. b. ANY
member of this association may re-
sign provided his dues are paid to the
date of such resignation but such dues
shall in all cases constitute valid
claim against such resigning member
until they are paid"
Thank Dods ct al.
The following-resolution were pass
ed unanimously:

At a meeting of. the Waverley Club,
Inc. held last evening, II was decided
that the club should enter the baseball
field this season with the best seasoned
material available in Washington, with
a view toward entertaining the lovers
of baseball on Sunday.
Washington fans have never had the
opportunity of seeing some of the fast
minor league teams perform in this city
against any Washington teams and ow-
ing to the fact that some of the best
ball players in the city have signed con-
tracts to play on the Waverley team, 1t
is positive that many of the minor
leaguers will be seen here this season.
Among the well-known Washington
ball tossers. who have signified their in
tentions of connecting themselves with
the Waverley club. are "Cy'' Mcdonald
and "Curley" Brown.

ell with several OF the International
League magnates regarding Sunday
games. and although definite arrange
nents could not be decided upon at the.
oresent time regarding the dates. fav-
orable replies were received.

McCRAW WAS GREAT
WAITER" WAY BACK
WITH ORIOLES IN 80

Since the National and American
record-keepers have taken to keeping
track of the number of times the play
ers have gone to first base by the free
transportation route, Jimmy Sheckard.
of the Chicago Cubs. holds the record
for the National League, and DOME
Bush, of the Detroit Tigers, for the
Americans, and last season. according
to Secretary John A. Heydler's figures,
Sheckard got 122 passes in 146 games,
while, according to the American League
records. Bush was passed ITO times in IA
games.
These figures do not approach the rec
ord made by Manager John McGraw, of
the Giants. in 1893. when the little Ma
poleon was manager of the Baltimore
Orioles. The record was kept that year
by the baseball expert of the Baltimore
Sun. This is what he said about it:
Manager McGraw, of the Giants, has
made a record this season never before
equaled in the annals of the game. Sew
eral times, month or SO earlier in the
season. the fact that he had reached
his base at least once in every game of
the season except one was referred to
in the Sun as something unprecedented.
I'm the issue, OF July II was shown
that he had reached first base twice out
OF every three times he had faced the
pitcher to bat. and il was shown that his
very remarkable skill in getting his base
on balls had enabled him to get to first
base some sixty-five times in the first
sixty-four games
"Since that time and up to Saturday,
August Il, Manager McGraw has not
failed to reach first base at least once
in every game. His record, therefore Is
IS games. in "a of which he has managed
to get to first base at least once, and
usually oftener
In the last 81 games UP to Saturday,
McGraw had got So bases on balls and
been hit three times. total of IS passes.
AS he had previously COTTON So bases on
balls and been hit times. his total of
free passes secured from opposing pitch
lers mounts UP to the imposing total Of
los in So games. This Is a record in itself
never before equaled In the 81 games
he has gotten almost as many bases
on balls as all the other men on the
team put together"

and they either struck out like men or
hit like men. They were not strong for
that hunt stuff.
: Ban Johnson's programme for shorten
ing the time required to play a game
can only be commended by the multi
tude interested In baseball Johnson pro-
poses that new ball will be put into

as the brilliancy that marks it. The ball
clubs. have decided on a wise course In
starting their games at an earlier hour.
and this. with the johnson scheme or
making the actual time of play shorter,
should go a long way toward increasing
the popularity OF the sport with the pub
tic.
A concrete clubhouse for the use Of
visiting players is> being built at the
home Of the st. Louis Browns, and will
be ready the first week in May.
Time and again you hear the critics
say that fielding averages do not count.
and that the best men often have the
shabbiest averages. Not the way games
are scored in recent years. Jiggs Dono-
hue. for instance. led the American
League first basemen for three success
sive seasons. and where was there a
man who ielded the station with Jiggs
in fact az well as record? Lajoie and
Collins have frequently led the second

deserve to? Jimmy Collins, Tannehiil,
and Bradley have been percentage lead
ers on third-were there any better ones ?
Wallace and Mcbride have led the
