Sunday Baseball
For Atlantic City
Stceinl to The TeIeernth

Atlantic City, n. J., ug.24.-The
success of the Sunday baseball game
in Atlantic City yesterday between
Reading, of the Tri-State League, and
the Beach Combers in which the for
mer won 3-2, probably means that the
seashore will again be represented in
the circuit next season. The pretzels
have been running bad financially at
home and the record-breaking crowd
was a revelation.
Atlantic City did poorly here in Tri-
State last year, but when it considered
that the Boardwalk buds fell so far in
the rear that after the first six weeks
it never got out of the cellar birth,
better could hardly be expected.
When the old-time Red Roses"
moved here from Lancaster the sum-
mer before last, much better results
were obtained and Atlantic City looked
like good town for the league.
Many contend that fandom here stand
ready to support good ball and this
seems readily substantiated by the
crowds that attended the star attrac-
tions. Reading looks to be the likely
change.
Sunday contests determine the fu-
ture in this city. Approximately two
thousand were in the stand to-day and
this shows the public sentiment in re-
lation to Sabbath baseball. Atlantic
City has taken a liberal turn for
amusements, and this led the pro-
moters of the home club to chance to-
days exhibition. No action was taken,
and, in consequence, Sunday attrac-
tons will be staged throughout the
year. The Worlds Champion Athle-
tics play in Atlantic City next Sunday.
1t is more than likely that crowds
will be turned waay at this coming
game.

L FOOTBALL OFFICIALS MAY
UNDERGO EXAMINATION

There was so much dissatisfaction
with officials on the football field alst
year that the intercollegiate rules COM
mittee is considering means by which
officials may be trained. Every year
the list of men who wish to officiate is
swelled by the names of college gradu-
ates, many of whom were good play
ers themselves but who have never
shown the slightest capacity as off,
cials. The fact that a man was a good
player is no assurance that he will be
a success as an official.
The suggestion has been made,
therefore, that the committee on Off
cials have some method of examining
candidates for positions and then fol-
low this up by watching their work in
important games. Some of the leading
officials think that there should be a
method of preventing the blacklsting
of competent officials by the big uni
versities because some of their deci-
sions at critical moments may have
been distasteful.

Expect Mclaughlin to
Win Newport Tourney

Newport, Aug. 24.-Lawn tennis
players will watch the progress of the
thirty-fourth annual deciding of the
all comers national singles champion
ship tournament which begins here
TO-DAY on the court of the picture
sque Casino, chiefly with the thought
as to who will be developed to go
after the Davis cup this year.
There is not a doubt in the minds
of any of the followers of the game as
to Maurice E. Mclaughlin, the peer
less California Comet. being in physi-
cal condition to win championship
honors for the third consecutive year.
The cleanly cut victories victories of
Mclaughlin over Norman E. Brooks
and Anthony F. Wilding in the inter
nati-Aal challenge matches stamped
him as the greatest singles player in
the world at the present time.
