when tho Belgian Relief Fund competi-

vited then to play against each other in
another handicap on some course TO be
selected by the association, the leader I'm

1t ia believed that the inauguration Of
such competition will prove a popular
one among the clubs which belong TO the
association and will give club members
of all classes chance 10 compete.
Since his election less than a month
ago Il. Mortimer Barnes, the new secre-
tary Of the Metropolitan Golf Assocfa-
ton, has been hard at work preparing
tho Metropolitan schedule for the coming
season and announced yesterday the dates
for several Journeys. As usual the latter
part of May and the early part of June
are the most sought for by the clubs
anxious to hold Journeys. Garden CITY
has taken advantage of the change which
shifted the Metropolitan amateur from
the third week In May 10 the first in
June and has applied for and received
May 20. FL and % for It's invitation
tourney.
Tuxedo as usual will hold its tournament
on May 81, 90 and 90, and as previously
announced the Metropolitan amateur at
Apawamis Will occupy the last four days

Tho next week Is being left open until
the New Jersey State Golf Association
selects the dates for it's annual champion
ship, but on June II, Is and 10 Apawamis
will entertain the golfers, the Apawamls
Club having decided that one week $
respite will be sufficient between the
Metropolitan amateur championship and
the clubs annual invitation tournament,
The Nassau Country Club, which has
been holding its tournaments in the fall,
has applied for spring date this year.

M'CARTY TELLS EBBETS
HE WON'T NOTICE FEDS
Writes From California That
They're After Him-Squire
Talks of Dalton.

Charles Hercules Ebbets was excited
over "a variety of things all day yester-
day. First he announced the receipt OF
a letter from Catcher Lew McCarty. who
is wintering in Brawley. Cal. saying that
the Feds had approached him but would
receive nothing but a horse laugh for
their trouble.
Next tho Dodgers president made known
that Manager Wilbert Robinson will take
thirty men to Daytona, Fla for spring
training, seventeen OF them being pitchers
Right on top OF this he announced that
he himself the Squire of Flatbush, would
deliver a lecture or grafton to the mem
bers Of the Mems League Of Homecrest
Presbyterian Church. Brooklyn, on the
evening OF January 10. lie would not di-
vulgc the nature Of his subject aside from
the fact that il will be on baseball A
rumor was In circulation that ne will
speak on "Baseball Is IN Its Infancy"
Mr. Ebhets was indignant over the &C;
Of Outfielder Jack Dalton In jumping 10
the Buffalo Feds. He accused Dalton Of
breaking faith and said he desired to
talk about more pleasant things, but upon
being pressed for a statement dictated
THIS one:
We paid tho Des Molnes club $500 for
Jack Dalton, and when he came to Brook
yn we found It necessary 20 put him out
- the minors. no needed a lot of prep
before he could become a finished player.
We sent him out frequently and finally
brought him back for good last season. He
never was really good ball player like
Zach Wheat He was a good batter but
was weak on ground balls and his arm was
not Of the best. HIS 1914 contract with
Brooklyn expired on October last. but in
that contract was an option on his 1915
services for which we paid $3.50.
He came here on Saturday last, and in
the presence OF Edward j. McKeever and
Larry sutton I officially handed him a
letter which I read him first. notifying him
that we had exercised our option on his SER
Vices for 1915 at the salary stipulated in the
1874 contract lie Acknowledged IN the
presence OF the said witnesses that he ae-
cepted the option clause In the 1914 ron
tract binding on him for 1915 lie then
told me that the Buffalo Federal League
club had offered him a salary OF IS 900 a
year for two years. asked him II he
thought hts services worth that
amount lie said no. he thought his SER
vices we're not worth half that amount.
asked him why he thought they were offer-
ing him that much money out OF all pro
he said he thought they were doing II In
order TO hurt tie Brooklyn club. He said
he would not sign a contract with them
until he had come back and seen me on tn
following Monday after no had seen Dave
Fultz.
Dalton did not come back and heard
yesterday that he had signed with the
Buffalo Feds, receiving an advance OF $4,000
IN cash which he has deposited in a Newark
bank
/ shall consult with our lawyers and taxi,
the matter up with Gov. Tener. looking "a
