JULIAN HILL AGAIN
HEADS COMMISSION

Colonel Julian III. Hill, of the Ma
tional State and City Bank. was again
unanimously elected president of the
Amateur Baseball Commission at
meeting held last night in the bank
building. Colonel Hill requested that
a successor to him be elected. but the
members of the commission refused
to allow him to vacate the presidential
chair.
Colonel Hill has made an excellent
president. and has disposed OF his
duties in a most efficient manner since
he was elected several years ago to
head the amateur organization. he
has done much to promote amateur
baseball in Richmond. having stuck to
the commission when disarmament
seemed inevitable. However, the or
ganization is in a fourishing condi-
ton at the present time and from
present indications this will be the
most successful season In its his

r. B. Cardoza was elected first
vice-president, while E. r. Fuller was
selected to fill the Office OF second

reelected treasurer. BILLY" Smith.
