SPORTS AND A THLETICS|
s. 4. |. DISCUSS
TEAMS ENTERING
LEAGUE IN 1916

The s. A. L. held a meeting last
night at the Y. NJ C. A. to discuss
what teams will be in the organization
next year. Messrs. Ulrich and Puck
EFT want the league composed of fac
tory teams only, and if this is done it
will mean the elimination of the cham
pion Vigrans, and their place probably
will be taken by the Pennsylvania
railroad team.
Robinson & Co, and the Westcott
Motor Car company withdrew their
applications, and the Starr Piano COM
pany was unable to be represented.
No Date Set.
The committee appointed by Presi-
dent Brehm to arrange for an open
house to entertain the players and
their wives and friends at the Y. NJ.
c. A. some time in January was con-
tinued. The committee reported that
it had been unable to secure definite
date from Secretary Learner.
Omer Todd represented the Penn
sylvania railroad at the meeting and
stated that the boys connected with
the road were willing to enter the
league, provided they could secure the
players they wanted SO that they would
have a representative team.
Anxious to Play.
Mr.. Todd said he did not care
whether his team finished in the race
in first or last place, but that he was
entering simply for the sport and rec
reation it furnished the boys. Whether
they get franchise or not, Mr.. Todd
said, the P. R. R. boys would have
lots of baseball this summer.
President Brehm said that it was
his idea, and he believed the idea of
the league, to equalize the strength Of
the teams by trading, and thus make
the race for the pennant more inter-
esting.
The Athletic association of the A..
S. M. company has adopted a rule not
to enter baseball league which is
not composed of factory boys exclu-
sively, and there is question whether
they will remain in the league.
Mr.. Brehm, after listening to the
details furnished by John Ulrich, ap-
pointed Karl Meyers, Sam Vigran and
Alfred Bavis committee to wait on
the officials and put the matter be-
fore them. Mr.. Bavis made a strong
the managers, and said it would do
more to help the game than any other
thing. He spoke of the dump across
the Doran bridge, and advocated an
eight club city league. He said he
would lay out a diamond there for the
use of the league.

{ Both Nelson and Jeffries are the
class Of scrappers who are boring In

punishment.
If Jeffries will fight Nelson in the
open and keep away frem the clinches
as much as possible his chances of vic
tory will be greater for Nelson can
land an awful wallop with on arm free
