Cy Young, the "Grand Old Man of
baseball, who it was reported, would be
on the roster of Billy Smiths Atlanta
Crackers during the coming season, has
decided not to sign with the Atlanta club
or to accept any other minor league bid
for his services.
1t seems that .Cy is after a job as
big league scout. He is averse to hit
ting the toboggan which leads into for
getfulness of the powers that were. and
would rather associate himself with the
game in a position where his former
prowess will not be forgotten.
Il didn't decide what l wanted to do
this year until a few days ago" says
Cy. ''And l am afraid that l may not
catch on as scout until next year, We'll,
if [ don't get a scouting job l can work
for Cyrus on the farm.

STATEMENTS ISSUED FROM
MEETING OF STEWARDS OF
JOCKEY CLUB INDICATE SUCH
A MOVE is ON FOOT

New York. February 26.-F'rom the
wording of statement issued after meet
ings today of the stewards of the Jockey
club and officials of several racing as
soeations, the impression prevails among
racing men tonight that the powers that
govern horse racing in this vicinity have
about decided to open some of the metro
politan. tracks this year. The way is
held to have been paved for such action
by a recent court decision holding oral
betting not unlawful. thereby exempting
directors of racing associations from la
hilty for betting in this form.
Because all the racing associations were
not represented. officials of the Empire
City, Brighton Beach and jamaica tracks
being absent, no definite conclusion was
announced as to whether racing would
be resumed.
That such is the intention, however,
could be inferred from the statement
