BIG GOLF PROBLEM IS UP
United States Association in Annual
Meeting to Define an ANA
teur in Sport.

NEW YORK, January 12.--Ihe def
;nition of an amateur is the most i'm
portant business before the annual
meeting Of the United States Golf AS
sociation which will open here tonight
This disqualification of Francis Ouimet
Paul Tewksbury. John H. Sullivan. jr,
and other prominent players on the
ground that they capitalized their rep
utations for financial gain has aroused
a strong protest, which Will be put to
rest by The vote on amendments to the
amateur rule.
II was pointed out today that this
rule would bar from amateur competl-
tion Walter j. Travis, former national
amateur and British amateur cham
pion, and several other well known
PLAYERS who are course architects.
Advocates of q rigid amateur rule
declare that this new amendment cuts
the ground from under the feet of the
woodland Golf Club in its defense of
Ouimet, Tewksbury and Sullivan. The
Woodland officials based their protest
largely on the contention that the rule
debarrfng Ouimet was discriminatory,
and aimed directly at the famous Mas
sachusetts player, while it let others
of equal prominence escape the same
consequences.
AS the contest stands at present the
balance of power may rest with the
western delegates. The Massachu-
setts association already has voted
strongly for the reinstatement of Oui-
met and a change in the rule, while a
majority of delegates from the metro
politan district support the action of
the executive committee.

BASE BALL STRIKE
SURE, SAySFULTz
Announces Action Is Inevitable
Unless Minor Leaguers' De-
mands Are Granted.
M0GULS "N0T WORRIED"
BY DENMAN THOMPSON.

Unless requests for the betterment of
conditions for minor league players are
granted there will be no need for
training camps this spring. This is the
gist of the ultimatum issued by Pres
ident Fultz Of the Base Ball Players
Fraternity. AS evidence that the fra
ternity is in earnest it last night an
nounced the expulsion of ''slim" alice.
pitcher of the New York Nationals, on
the ground that he had broken his
pledge to await permission Of the or
ganization before signing a contract
Fultz had secret conference at Phil
adelphia last night with about twenty
major and minor league players. He
intimates that majority of the major
league players are solidly behind the
minor leaguers in their fight.
However. President Johnson Of the
American League was not struck
speechlesS when told of Fultz's threat.
He said: I'VE are not worrying and
camps precisely as planned"
President Tener of the National
League said: There is absolutely no
moral or legal basis for strike on
man Hermann of the national COM
mission said he heartily indorsed
Tener's attitude. Further indication of
the temper of organized base ball
leaders may be gathered from the
statement of President Comiskey Of
the Chicago Americans to the effect
that he anticipates no trouble in OBJ
tanning signatures of his players to
contracts and the terse comment OF
President Weeghman of the Chicago
Nationals: I'VE expect no difficulty.
President Barrow of the international
League believes Fu1tzs action poorly
advised and thinks he has gone long
way. to break his organization. he
said: "The minor leagues in general
will welcome a strike. They are In
no humor to be coerced. We will well
come a years vacation, and perhaps
by the end of the year the players may
sing different tune
The Southern Association Will Ignore

President Robert H. Baugh. when noti-
fed of the action of Fultz.
NO demands from President Fultz as
TO the players contracts in the SOUTH
ern Association have been received,
said President Baugh. and. even
should demands be made upon US, they
would be ignored. The contracts VIII
be sent out as agreed upon at our
meeting last December
IT was decided yesterday to hold a

York next Monday. President Johnson

G. U. TEAM PLAYS TONIGHT

One of the most spirited basket ball
games Of the year on local courts
should be the result of the meeting
tomorrow night of George Washington
and Catholic University. The game will
be played at the Y. N. C. A, and is
to begin at o'clock. Both quints are
especially anxious to win, and they are
evenly enough matched to warrant a
prediction that the score will be close
and the game as a whole particularly
interesting.

vantage in two things. 1t has been
able to keep the same players together

squad began work early in December
and is playing on fits home floor.
has been compelled to shift it's men
so often, and has had so little real
work with its present combination that
it has been unable to develop the team
play so necessary to success. Also the
Brooklanders have been practicing on a
floor much smaller than that at'the ~.
The game will have progressed some
little distance before the visiting team
accustoms itself to the unfamiliar con-
ditions.
George Washington has two clever for
wards either of whom is likely to throw
goals from the floor. any time he gets
fair opportunity. Almon is an exceed
ingly accurate shot, both from the floor
and foul line. The Hatcheti tites also have
a pair of hard-playi guards, but
neither is much of shot. The two best
men in the c. U. lineup are O'Brien and
Glascott. The former has a habit Of
staying outside the play and being free
to shoot a goal when the ball is tossed
to him from the scrimmage by one of
his teammates. The Hatchetites will
have to cover him close if they want
to curb about half the scoring power of
the Brooklanders Glascott Is about the
best guard around here right now. At
least he is as clever. Glascott can play
the floor we'll and can shoot when given
an opportunity:

BUTTER TRUST LIMITED

practically suspended the operations
Of the Elgin Butter Board during the
war. According 10 the announcement

That system was started in England.
and. so far az it has gone II has pro-
duced fairly satisfactory results: but
England always was more backward in
trade efficiency methods. and she has
not como to anything like her full CT
fcctiveness. although the United King

The general trend Of all this Is good.
but In England the general trend" Of
anything that Is not "speedcd up" by
the dire necessity Of war is lamentably
slow; and to get this speed. it is essen
tial that the British public must BE-
made to sec the necessity for the reform
proposed.
Shall we wait for another year before
We hear that the brilliant proposal OF
the coordination Of the United States.
France. the British Empire, Itaty and
the other allies has been effected? Is
it not time that they all got together"
near the scene OF business7
We shall Of course, be told Of the re-
cent exchanges Of visits and conference
in Paris. But do not forget that war is
business. Most successful business
houses havo their daily departmental
and other conferences. which enable
them ia take advantage OF the opportu-
nifty for increasing their business OF TO
meet the circumstances which threaten
IL, and they hold these conferences in
tho house OF business. not hundreds or
thousands OF miles away from II.
Tho supreme demand OF the war Is CO.
ordination. IT Is the lack Of II that is
bn Of the allies.
The United States. the greatest business
nation Of the world. has called to her
aid her greatest business men In almost
every department to coordinate her
movements and her resources. II this
is good for the commonwealth OF the
United States. is its logical pursuance
not equally good for the common
wealth" of the allies?
Therefore we should have in London

ne composed Of business men and mas
tor soldiers. should be- permanent. and

: The business side OF this war has been
badly overlooked Mt times. 1t Is unncc-
rssarv to emphasize this beyond the
mcr, mention OF Italy. What she be-
sought the allies to do months ago they
are striving strcnuously to do now. Not
