New York. Nov. l6.-New records are
being established at regular intervals at
Madison Square Garden where seventeen
twO-men teams are still battling for sJ-
premacy in the siX-day continuous bicycle
race. The plan of the management to
pay bonuses for lap stealing. and for new
hourly records, has spurred the con-
testants to ride so fast that many of them
are apparently all tired out before the race
is more than one-siXth through. The riders
are three miles ahead Of the record made
last year. CoUsseau and Parent who got
leave from the French army to represent
France in the contest were forced TO

FEDERALS TO EXIST,

Chicago, Nov. l6.-"In my opinion, the
Federal League will continue to exist
next year just as it did in 1914. said
President J. a. Gilmore, of the Federal
League, in his daily denial Of peace in
baseball Il see Mr.. Johnson says there
is no need of supporting a corpse. Well
in the event Of no peace terms being
agreed upon. Mr. Johnson will hnd the
Federal League corpse 10 be the hveliest
dead one he has ever had occasion to face
l have all along contended no agreement
would be reached, and I am holding to
that opinion. The new league Is going
right along signing players and will be
able to give out list of new ones before
long"
Mr.. Gilmore said the Chicago Federals
had not signed Eddie Plank for 1915, but
did not deny having heard from him re-
Gently. All stockholders of the Chicago
Federals, to the number of thirty-four,

WOMEN ARE TO REGISTER

New York, Nov. I6-Women will be al
lowed to register with the Amateur Ath-
letic Union and compete in swimming
events confined exclusively to women.
The important question was decided at
the annual convention of the Amateur
Athletic Union at the WaldorfAstoria
this afternoon. It is remarkable as being
the first instance where the women have
been admitted on the same footing as men
in amateur sport. When this clause.
which will amend Article Y of the con-
stitution. was introduced the delegates
were Immediately on edge.
The Pacific Coast and the Western dele
gates went solidIy for the amendment and
it will adorn the pages of the rule book
for a year at least. There were those
present who viewed the admission of
women as a progressive step toward the
recognition of women's rights.
All other proposed amendments to the
constitution were turned down. The
proposition to admit the army and navy
athletes without registration went to the
waste basket with a bang. The clauses
stipulating that professionals could COM
pete against amateurs in football, basket
ball and baseball got severe black eye.
Neither can professionals or paid in,
structors exhibit against amateurs in any
events given by the Amateur Athletic
Union. In 4 word, the old guard stood
solid as a rock. and for another year the
expert instructors will have to be con-
tented with their rightful sphere. They
cannot be pros and amateurs, at the
same time.
President Alfred J. LII, of Boston. pre-
sided, and he was elected to a second
term without opposition. In his annual
address he paid a high tribute to the
ability Of the late James z. Sullivan and
asked the delegates present for their
earnest cooperation in carrying out the
sports program planned by Sullivan for
the Panama-Pacific Exposition next year.
All the branches of sport fixtures con-
troIled by the Amateur Athletic Union
were awarded to the exposition with the
exception of boxing.
John ]. McGovern. assistant director of
sports. was present and said that the win
ners of the boxing championship here
would be taken to San Francisco to meet
all Comers. Fred W. Ruben, of New
York, was elected secretary-treasuTer
Josie Barlow Weeks explained that he
did not have the time to devote to the
office.
