College Officials Plan
National Sport Session

New York. July 10.-A meeting of
the National Collegiate Athletic As
sociation executive committee will
be held in Washington August 2 to
discuss prospects for intercollegiate
athletics during the next collegiate
year. The conference will be held
at the suggestion of the meeting of
graduate athletic managers in the
city some weeks ago.
At that time the officers of the n.
c. A. A. were requested to confer
with college athletic authorities to
ascertain as far as possible their
plans for a resumption of intercol-
legiate athletics next fall and winter.
The rules all advocated a conference
to consider, and recommend If pos
sible, a program that would appeal
to all parts of the country as best
suited to safeguard the country's
interest in the present critical stu
alton and at the same time to pre-
serve college athletics, so far as they
may be kept up, without detriment
to military needs.
There were many suggestions that
the association meet as a whole, but
it was thought better that the execu-
tive committee convene as original
ly planned. In order that there may

ing SO. Scores above 81 were elimi-
mated from the 1S-hole medal play

Barons Win First Half;
Start Second Tomorrow

Scranton, Pa, July 10.-President
]. H. Farrell announced yesterday
the plans and schedule for the first
two weeks of the new season of the
New York State League. The first
half of the season ends to-day with
the Wilkes Barre Barons being pro-
claimed champions. The second
half of the playing term begins
Wednesday, with Scranton playing
at Elmira, Wilkes-Barre at Read
ing, Syracuse at Binghamton. Both
Harrisburg and Utica are out of
the league for this season at least.
All the players on both teams are
to be declared free agents. Fans in
the three opening cities are plan
ming to make Wednesdays games
regular spring openings, and efforts
will be made to stir up enthusiasm
that is expected to bring out big
crowds.
Saturday the season opens again
in this city with Syracuse. Read
ing will play the Barons at Wilkes
Barre, and Elmira will open in Bing-
hamton.
The various managers are now
busy rearranging their team rosters,
and there will be many changes
made before the end of the week.
President Farrell stated to-day that,
in addition to the players being ask
ed to accept a reduction in salary,
the monthly stipend of the umpires
is to receive a slash.
Manager Coughlin, of the Min
ers, began to readjust his blueprint
yesterday. He issued outright walk
ing papers to Del Drake, the for
mer big Lacquer, who was one of the
highest salaried men on his rolls,
and he returned Dan Senne. the lit
tie outfielder, to Binghamton. It is
also rumored that Cy Pieh, the for
mer Yankee pitcher, is to go.

Boston. Mass, July 10.-Manager
Stallings, of the Braves, rendered
almost desperate by the losing
streak of his team. is planning to
get two men from the International
League to bolster up his outfield.
Wilhoit is slated to so. for his weak
hitting has bade his playing un-
satisfactory to the big boss.
Weak hitting has been the princi-
pal trouble with the Braves all the
year, and the outfield has been par
ticularly bad in this respect. Stall
lings took a trip to Providence yes
terday and it was learned he was in
conference with the Providence
manager after the game there yes
terday, but what was done could not
be learned. Stallings hopes to get
Walter Beng. formerly with the Red
Sox, and another International Lea
que star from Providence. He has
also recalled Arthur Rice from the
Springfield club, of the Eastern
League, to strengthen his catching
staff and the youngster may now get
a chance to catch for big league
team as a regular.

CHAMPION WILLARD
chicago. ILL.,. July 10.-Jess Will
lard is not figuring on quitting the
ring. Denying reports of his retire
ment, the heavyweight champion, in
a letter to Chicago friends. said that
he would be ready to defend his
title as soon as the circus season is
finished in October.
The champion said he was entire
ly through with Jack Curley and
Tom Jones, mis- former managers,
who nave threatened to sue him.
AS long as l was working on a
salary Jones and Curley got their
percentage on my earnings" Willard
wrote, but the war and bad wealth
er hurt the show business and I re-
ceivcd notice that my contract was
to be cancelled. That would leave
circus.
Excess Baggage
"As owner of the show and not
an employe, 1 could not see where
Jones and Curley should be entitled
to any part of the gross receipts.
So I discharged them"
Willard confided that he weighed
in the neighborhood of $50 pounds,
which is about thirty pounds above
ms usual HShJnS WelSnt, out InaI
with a little training he would be
able TO defend his honors in twen-
ty-round contest.
TT isn't true that l have refused
to box either Carl Morris or Fred
Fulton" Willard's letter continued.
why should 1 bar them if the pub
lie wants me to meet either of
them? 1t is true that I do not like
Morris. but that doesn't mean that
he's barred"
The big Kansan has amassed a
fortune since he became champion.
1t is said that he has between S400,-
900 and 100000 planted away in
Chicago banks.

TENNIS STARS
AID RED CROSS
National Association Will
Equip Three Ambulance
Sections

New York, July 10.--The United
States National Lawn Tennis Associa-
ton is stepping in line With the Stone
men, and other organizations in the
popular move of getting behind the
Government. The association has just
started the execution OF plans to give
to the army, through the American
Red Cross. three ambulance sections,
fully equipped and manned by tennis
players.
The total cost will be about 100000
and the association plans to raise this
sum through contributions from the
various clubs throughout the country
and by a series of exhibition matches.
starting July 20 and continuing for
about six weeks. to be held at clubs
in large cities.
Stars to Play
The exhibition matches will bring
together some of the best players OF
the association. including among those
who have already promised to give
their time to such purpose, w. NJ.
Johnston and Miss Mary Browne, of
California;; +. B. Alexander, Harold
Throckmorton. X. H. Behr. Miss Molla
Bjurstedt, r. l.. Murray. n. w. Niles
and S. H. Voshell. In addition to these
players 1t is very likely that some of
the men now in the Officers Training
Camp will be able to participate after
August IL.
Each one of the ambulance sections
will include thirty-seven men and
twenty-five machines. to be made up
of ambulances, trucks, touring cars
and motorcycles. All the men will be
drawn from the ranks of the tennis
players and the lieutenant of the sec
tions in all probability will be a ten
nis-playing physician.
Appeal to Clubs
Each club thro ,ghout the country
has received an appeal to donate as
large a sum of money as possible,
If $1,000 can be raised by a particular
club, that club will have it's name
on one of the ambulances. Two clubs
can combine to give one car which
will be marked with the names of the
contributing clubs. The Country Club
of West Chester, the Field Club of
Greenwich and the West Side Tennis
Club each have pledged one or more
anbulances.
