iioon commission Of Johnstown, Pa,
asks for information from the anna
teur officials OF Detroit and other
cities In the country, In order 10 get

Some Of the questions asked in
The circular are:

ranks in your city:
What is the numter OF teams,
leagues and players in semiprofes-
sional ranks
Are the leagues classified by age.

pendent Of your organization? How

ed.

He also asks that the person re-
ceiving the circular give his defint
