Registration Committee of
Metropolitan Association
Hands Down Decision
Which Puts Ban on Him.

NEW YORK. Feb, 4.-Charlss Rough-
ton, the Newark High School boy who
holds the two-mile intsrseholastic record.
was put outside the pale OF amateur Rth-
leties yesterday by the decision OF the
Registration Committee OF the Metropoli-
tan Association. The committee rejected
his application for registration on the
ground that the position he held during
the summer OF 1914 as play leader In the
Essex County playground makes him
Ineligible for registration In the A. A. u.
Boughton still has the right OF appeal
TO the board OF managers OF the Metro
polltan Association, but there is little
chance Of tine board upsetting the verdict
OF the committee. In due time II Is
thought that II Boughton applies to the
national Registration Committee OF the
A. A. u. for reinstatement he may be
readmitted 10 the amateur ranks.

Task Against Jack Johnson

tween Jack johnson and Jess Willard at
JHaGes. Mexico. March o. according TO an an
eeptance.
NEW YORK, Feb 4.-Anothsr whacl
was taken at Jack Johnson by the Ameri-
can courts yesterday (Mexican papers
please copy). Bernard Gerard, plotting
burlesque organization, obtained judg-
ment against LII Artha for S34S9 55 His
allegation was that after contracting to
display his prowess to burlesque fans for
$4,000 a week, Johnson went on strike at
Milwaukee In 1910 and demanded $3.50.
Gerard said he granted the raise under
protest, when the heavyweight champion
hit him on the nose. The fact that John
son has nothing to levy on in the United
States cast little cold water on Gerard's )
legal victory.

That Limit

The American League clubs may
carry 25 men on their roster--not in
cluding the manager-after May 10
This news was the most interesting an
nounced at the gathering of the big
moguls in New York city yesterday.
Connie Mack. Of the Athletics, was one
who would not fall in with the Ma
tional Leagues proposal to have but
21 men on the list. Stlff opposition was
everywhere experienced when the sug-
gestion to limit the number of players
to 2l was broached. The National
League proposed a 21 players limit
probably as a feeler.
