IRON HILL MAY RETURN

Professor C. A. Short has been
working hard for some days to
straighten out affairs in the Penn
Mar League and get the schedule
running smooth again. Saturday,
May 10th, Iron Hill was scheduled
to play at Providence but failed to
appear and it was later announced
that the club would withdraw from
the league and disband. Efforts
were made to get an Elkton club to
enter the league but this failed and
consequently the game that Newark
Field Club was scheduled with Iron
Hill last Saturday was not played.
Since that time, however, Professor
Short has talked with some of the
officials of the Iron Hill and it
is reported that matters have been
adjusted and the club will probab-
ly be back to play out it's schedule
starting with the coming Saturday.
The one game in the Penn-Mar
League last Saturday proved an
exceptionally good one. 1t was be-
tween Providence and Appleton at
Providence and the champions won
3 to 2. Crow and Wilson pitched
fine ball but the latter got the best
support.

ALL Chinese Team Want to Buy
Outright But Motley Seeks Man
agement Of Aggregation. :
(Frcm Thursday Advertiser

(f'rcm Thursday Adyertiser.)
Z Members Of the Chinese Athletic
Union are on the anxious seat as to
the position of their All. Chinese team,
and they are wondering if the aggrega.
ton is to become member of the Oahu
League or not during the season of
19l4. Although the team was admitted
to the league at recent meeting of
the directors, there is considerable red
tape to be unwound before the aggre'.
cation knows just where they are at.
According to the members Of the
team, and the public was led to believe
likewise, the All-Chinese were to pur,
chase the franchise Of the nearly de-
funct Stars, paying the sum of 500
for the same, this being the exact
amount. OF near IT,, of the note held
by Thomas Treadway against John
Motley.
Now comes another angle to the
wrangle. II is stated that John Not
ley, manager Of the Stars, will dispose
of his franchise only on condition that
he remain as manager of the All-Chi-
nese and share in the profits of the
team with the players. This PROPOSE
tion does not meet with the approval
OF the team nor the Chinese Athletic
Union. They are willing to take up
tae note Treadway holds against Not.
ley, or are willing to enter the Oahu
League upon the same conditions as
the st. Louis Alumni entered, paying
the sum of 800.
IL is the contention of the Chinese
that the payment Of $500 to Motley
does not get them anything, and that
he is receiving $500 for simply turning
the mime of his Stars into that of All
Chinese, and that he win still be in
absolute control Of the situation.
What the All-Chinese seek TO do is
to buy Motley out, take IN his note
with Treadway and become sole owners
of the franchise. Or they are willing
to file another application with the
Oahu League and beeoma iona f1e
member, as are the Punshous, st. Louis
Alumni and other teams. tn... g"
That Motley should dispose of his
franchise outright to the AlI-Chinese
is the consensus of opinion for the best
interests Of baseball. The Stars, as a
ball team, were joke and did not help
baseball whatsoever, while on the other
hand real All.Chinese team in the
league would greatly add to the interest
