NEWARK FEDERAL CLUB
MAY Be TRANSFERRED
Patronage Is So Light that Team Is
Seeking Another City As
Home

Newark, July Sit was stated in
Newark on excellent authority last
night that the Newark Federal League
Club will be transferred to another
city before close of the present season.
Tne patronage at the new Harrison
Park has been so poor that the VEN
ture has proved disappointment to
Pat Powers and Harry +. Sinclair, the
owners of the club.
Baseball has been big failure in
Newark, both at the International
League Park and also at the Federal
Park. The International League Club
was shifted to Harrisburg, and the
support OF the Feds has been so poor
that the Federal League officials are
seriously contemplating the transfer
of the club to another city. Some
time ago the club released it's man
ager, Bin Phillips. in order to reduce
the expenses.
The venture in Harrison was very
costly. A large amount of money was
spent in the construction of the plant
at Harrison Oval. which will be bur-
den on the hands of the league when
the transfer is made. The Sunday pa
tronage has been fair, but the attend
ance at the week games has been
light.

The paper presented by the Civic AS
ISOLATION in placing it's nominees oe-
fore the committee stated that the as
ISOLATION in no way wished to dictate

the position of impressing upon the
committee the necessity of accepting
its nominees. But 1t felt that the plac-

OF the ten names submitted by the

Pollard and wallerstein. Mr.. Bemiss

that in selecting their feiiow-workmen
on the committee there was no refiee

chosen sub-chairman.

at least half of the day. the two lead

through every storm that visited Fc1

late starters and before they were half
way around in the morning the rain
began to descend.
The morning round brought glory
to McDermott and Nichols each OF
whom made seventy-one and led the
field at that point. Both We're lucky
in finishing before the rain began,
and they split the $40 prize for the
lowest score made for the first round.
Macdonald was in third place with
a seventy-two, and Hagen. with
seventy-five, were not far away. al
though there were several who were
better.

LAFAYETTE'S new PRESIDENT

College presidencies come easily
to the MacCracken family. DR.. Henry
M. MacCracken was at the head of
New York university for years; his
son, Henry N, was elected president
of Vassar and now another son, John
Henry, has been made president of
Lafayette college at Easton, Pa.
John Henry MacCracken was born
in 1875 and graduated from New York
university at the age of nineteen
years. After several years of study in
Heidelberg and Halle, Germany, he
joined the faculty of his alma mater.
In 1899 he became president of West
minister college, Missouri, holding the
position for four years, resigning to
become syndic and professor of poll
tics at New York university. AS pro-
fessor of politics he has given courses
in the graduate school on municipal
government, being one of the first in
America to offer courses on city plan
ming, city charters and charter max
ing, municipal finance and municipal
