four Of it's club owners. The request OF

special meeting can be called, and as
President Wathen, of the Louisville
club, vice president of the association.
has declined to join the movement OF the
four clubs requesting the meeting. no Of
ficial notice will be taken OF the request
until the return OF President Chivington
from hunting trip. Mr.. Chivington
will not return, It was said at his office,
for several days.
Certain club owners. according to re-

Wathen. according to advices from
Louisville declined TO say what CLUBS
had asked him to join in the request for

reveal the apparent purpose OF the meet

His reason for refusing to Join in he
request, he said, was because he con-
sidered the movement unfair to Presi-
