A SALT LAKE Police
Lanky Finger Denies Recent Story
and Claims He Will Be Ready
Next Spring.

Tom Hughes. known TO the local follow
ers of baseball q few years ago as the
iron man" Of the NatiOnals denies the
story that he has quit baseball and Is
one Of Salt Lake City's finest" In a
letter to a friend here Tom says he IL
not on the police force OF the Mormon
city and that he will bc back in a Salt
Lake City uniform this spring, and will
take his regular turn on the heaviug
slab.
Tom claims the story originated when
he injured his arm last September ard
many OF his friends in Salt Lake Guy
believed he was through with pitching
forever. An operation has been per
formed on Hughes right wing which has
proven successful and Tom claims that
the old soup bone feels as good az ever.
He is confident that he will be able TO
Kip" them through next year and looks
for the best season OF his career
In this letter Tom denies q great many
OF the fairy stories that have been
printed about him recently. The Tight
en-up'' wtzEsrd claims thau he WAS never
kidnapped by any Cleveland gamblers
who had hopes Of winning by betting
against the Washington team and claims
that this is only a wild idea OF some wise
newspaper man. He also claims that he
was never left in this city by any man
ager who he played under for breaking
the training rules but states that on one
occasion he was sick In bed under the
McAleer reign and was left here on a
Western trip, but caught UP TO the team
before they finished the trip.

GRAND CENTRALS Win
FROM CONTINENTALS
Tom Mayhem Proves Star of Ten
Game Match with l.I37 Pins.
~ sLER" COLLINS.

Tom Keane's Grand Central Starr ex-
perenced little difficulty in totaling more
pins in the second half of their ten
game match. against the Continentals
last night at the Royal Alleys. The
totals for last night were 17F for the
Stars and 2s7S for the Continentals: tn.

Starting last nights games with a
lead Of only seventeen pins over Wright s
rollers, the Stars continued after the
first game to make pace and finished the
evening with lead of ninty-one pins for
the ten games.
In the first game the counts were SIS
for the g. c. S'A. while the Continentals
pulled up with 5o6 The second game
saw the District ieaguers lop OF nineteen

third game that practically decided the
match as in this one Vaeth and Company

been a cutting down Of the Grand

the handicap the Continentals lost four
teen pins more as Keane's crowd finished
with a mark of 675. With a lead of
seventy-one pins to work on it was
hardly to be expected that the RoyaI
Representatives would be able to over
take the fast flying National Capital

forth its best efforts, as the scores Of

1t has been suggested by N. H. Rob-
bins. manager of the Imperial Billia I'd
Parlor. that teams of five men be gotten
up representing several Of the local par
lors. and that an inter-room affair be
staged.
Robby states that he can get together
a team of fve men, that while perhaps
not the best in the city, is capable of
giving a very creditable exhibition of the
pocket game BY the plan proposed by
Robbins, it would be necessary for each
manager or proprietor who desired to
have his rooms represented, to submit
list OF seven players that would be
picked to play. In this manner II could
be determined which team was the strong
est and which was the weakest Then it
would be proposed to eliminate the crack
players in order that the teams be more
evenly balanced.
Robbins has already selected the six
men to represent his place, should the af-
fair be run on, and has named Belleman,
Blake, Sprout, Conner, Baldwin and

LOCAL COMMITTEE TO
INVESTIGATE TROUBLE
Washington Athletes to Submit Plea to
New Committee Of South Atlantic.

Despite the fact that the championship
committee of the South Atlantic Amateur
Athletic Union has recently handed the
Carroll Institute long-distance track team
the worst Of 1t, In the scheduling Of the
cross-country championship on New
Years Day. local followers and pro-
moters OF amateur athletics in this city
are hoping for the best and some few
of the spirited ones will hold a meeting
this week In order to kindle the fire in
the local athletic world once more.
The big idea Of the prominent ones
behind this new movement is to do a
little investigation on its own hook, and
when the newly-appointed committee on
Investigation of the trouble In the South
Atlantic athletic world meets in Balti-
more in the near future this Washington
committee will make known the findings
Of its investigations and submit the same
to the committee appointed by President
George Turner, of the A. A. u.
This local committee will unravel the
case of athletic affairs Of Washington
since the days when the Nautelis
Swimming Club was banned for COM
peting with the Midshipmen of the Nava;
cross-country championship committee.
Results OF the investigation Of this COM
mittee will not only be submitted to the
committee made up of DIR. William Bur-
dick, OF Baltimore; Williams Proudly of
Boston, and Henry Obertubbessing, Of
New York but It will be handed in with
many suggestions in hope of improving
the game in Washington and the South
Atlantic In general
Should this committee Of experts on
amateur athletics ignore the investiga-
tion and suggestions Of the local commit
tee, the appeal of the local athletes will
be submitted to President Turner for
further recognition.
Not only are the club athletic teams
and the Independent athletes in this city
ready to fall in line behind the new move
of the local amateur athletic magnates,
but the colleges. prep schools and the
high schools are willing to lend their
support.
The colleges here and the scholastic
teams have ben protesting for the past
three seasons over the handicaps handed
out by Joseph England. the handicapper
of the South Atlantic Amateur Athletic
Union Protests can be heard on all sides
after any of the indoor meets by coaches
and athletes of the teams from the South
Atlantic intercollegiate Amateur Athletic
Association. and on one occasion last
season these personal protests nearly
budded into an appeal to. the South At
lantic officials.
The promoters OF athletic events in this
city have been sta aging this uphill fight
for recognition and representation in the
South Atlantic division for snearly six
years now. but to date there has never
been any occasion when Baltimore has
met the local athletes half way, except
ing when they were forced into 1t and
1t was shown on all OF these occasions
that they had broken rules of the ANA
teur Athletic Union. Breaking A. A. U.
ruling in the South Atlantic Is as fire.
Quent In this division a. daisies in the
meadows in June time.
