John B. Foster closed all the doors
IN the Offices occupied by the New York
National League Club, in the Fifth
Avenue Building, at p. m. yesterday
and announced to the baseball scrib-
blers in his most awe-inspiring tones
that the Giants had just put through a
remarkable and farreaching deal. AS
1t turned out, the deal did reach as far

Joe Wilhoit, outtielder; Jose Rod

Kelly, utility man, have been sent to
the Rochester club, of the Interna-
tlonal League, along with cash CON
slderation, IN return for Earl Smith, a
catcher
According to the official averages for
the year 1918, this Smith person batted
:324 and was regarded as one of the
best fielding backstops in the Interna-
tional. He also has the advantage of
youth, being in the early twenties.

Brooklyn To Be
Scene of Three
Sets of Games

The Borough of Brooklyn promises
to be ccntre for championship track
and held competition during this year
1ollowlng the announcement yesterday
that the junior and senior indoor track
and field title games would be held in
the 18th Regiment armory, Sumner and
jefferson Avenues.
Inc Junior races, which were aban-
doned last year, will be resumed under
the auspices of the 18th Regiment Ath-
ietlc Association on Saturday evening,
February Is. 1t appears as if the ath
letlc committee of the regiment be-
lleved this good way to welcome
home its soldiers who are expected TO
reach these shores within few DAYS.
The decision to conduct the senior
games in the 18th Regiment armory
was entirely unexpected. However, this
change had to be made as the Amateur
Athletic Union was unable to secure
the 22d Regiment armory, where the
championships for the past two years
have been held. The date set was
March 8, and the games will be pro-
noted by the national championship
committee.
Thirteen events constitute the pro-
gramme of events at both meetings.
The third big plum gathered by a
brooklyn organization will be the ten
mile run and seven miles walking
championships by the Brooklyn Attn
letic Association. These contests will
be held on Brooklyn Athletic Field the
last Saturday afternoon in October

International Meet Planned
For the Spring of This Year
Sweden and 5 Other For.
eign Countries Asked
To Be Represented
By A. c. Cavagnaro

Sweden was not the only country to
which an invitation was extended to
send track team to the United States
this year, according to a statement by
an important official of the Amateur
Athletic Union yesterday. Invitations
were sept to five other foreign coun-
tries to take part in ali international
track and field meet to be held in the
East in the spring of this year. The
movement is in charge of the Amateur
Athletic Union.
Although these invitations were for-
warded almost one month ago. no den
mite reply has been received from che
various countries. 1t is understood
however, that the matter is in charg.
of the controlling athletic bodies c.
the respective countries and they are
expected to make a report shortly
The activities of the visitors will MOI
alone be confined to the international
meet. They are expected to make
tour of the United States, meeting all
star American combinations, in five
sections of the country
An organization which is particu-
larly keen to act as host to the for
ejgners is the University of PenmsAl
vania Athletic Association. The visitor
are wanted to show their wares in the
Penn relay games, which take place OF
Franklin Field. April % and 26
1t has been six years since a foreign
relay team competed in the Penn car
nival. In 1913 al English team. head
ed by Arnold jackson, beat an Amer
can four-men team by one foot after
sensational race. However. in the
coming games it is likely that the
French poilu team which defeated Ted
Meredith, Jack Eller and Tommy
Lennon, among others in race in
Paris, will be the attraction. Special
efforts are being made to obtain this
team.
The Amateur Athletic Union is par
ticularly anxious that A. Bolin and J.
lander, two Of Sweden's greatest run
ners.- come to these shores. Since their
history making fight against the Amer
lcan team that toured the Scandinavian
countries in 1913, Roln and lander
have continued their brilliant work.
In extending the invitations it was
learned that the Amateur Athletic
Union wished to have these foreign
athletes reach these shores before
March / if possible. Their appearance
is eagerly sought for the first two
weeks of March, as during the first two
weeks of this month four of the big
gest track and field meets will be held
in the East.
In their tour of the country it is ex-
pected that the foreign runners will
first compete against an all-star team
! at the Travers Island home of the New
York Athletic Club. They then will 90
to Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and
possibly San Francisco.

Soccer Club, with William H. Newman.
Of Manhattan, replacing Andrew York
as secretary and various other changes,
ere announced from Port Newark.
It is not stated whether the reor-

thrown on Federal Ship soccer activi-
ties by the Investigation of a special
committee appointed by President Peel
CT the United States Football Associa-
ton into the charges of shipyard club
agents tampering with signed players.
1t is significant, however. that the

Golf Gossip

The Suffolk Country Club, which was
formerly the Bellport Golf Club, of
Long Island, which had a nine hole
course, will have its new eighteen hole
course in readiness by the early part
Of May
The club secured the new prop
erty, which is about mile nearer to
bellport than the old nine hole course
several years ago, and it has taken
over two years to build the new course.
Last year fourteen of the holes were
IN playable condition, and they man
aged to get eighteen holes out of it by
playing the first, second, third and
eighteenth holes twice.
The four other holes, the fifth, sixth,
thirteenth and fourteenth, will be com,
pleted by spring, and the full eighteen
mole course of 6,270 yards will be
ready to put IN commission when the
season opens, about the middle of Nav.
Much credit is due Frederick Eddy
president of the club, who neglected
much of his golf during the past two
years IN the interest he spent in the
construction of the new course, which
ne feels Will compare favorably with
the leading courses in the Metropoli-
tan district. -
Bert Elphick, who was the profes-
sional of the National Golf Course of
America, at Shinnecock Hills, during
the first four years of its existence
and three years with the Shawnee
Country Club, until he left summer be-
fore last to join the Royal Air Force
of Canada, has returned to this city
after being mustered out of service,
and will again become a professional
golf Instructor.
Ernest Anderson, the professional of
the Lawrence Park Country Club, will
leave this city on Friday for Ormond,
Fla, where he will act as starter
and conduct the golf tournaments.
Park Commissioner Joseph Hennessy
has decided to pipe the greens at the
Pelham Bay golf course, which was a
very popular resort for the golfers
during the past season. A party of
thirty Scotchmen visited the course on
New Years Day and had a round of the
links. Among them was Abe Webster,
one OF the leading amateurs of Banals-
held Links, of Edinburgh, who did the
course in 49,
George Low will start an indoor golf
SCHOOL, next Monday at No. IA East 44th
street. The instructors who will give
lessons are Arthur Reid, Willie Ander-
son, Jack Pcrie, Alex Pere and Bert

Idea Of lleydlen'
National League Head Re-
iterafes His Opposition
to August Hermann

CHICAGO. Jan after confer
cnce with stockholders of the Chicago
Club. John A. Heyder, president of the
National League, tonight departed for
French Lick. Ind, where tomorrow he
will ioin Barney Dreyfuss, president OF
the Pittsburgh Club, and President Ban
Johnson. of the American League, in
drawing up baseball schedules for the
coming season The schedules will be
adopted at the joint meeting of the
major leagues in New York January 49,.
President Heydler did not expect any
opposition to the proposed 140- game
schedules, although he revealed that
the Chicago Club was not in favor
OF the short season. He said the seven
other clubs agreed by a mail vote to
& 140-game schedule
What President Heydler believed
would be the most important question
10 be considered at the joint meeting
was the formation of a new national
baseball commission. He said the ma
tional league would suggest the ap-
pointment OF q me man. commission.
If this cannot be accomplished
shall vote for three man commission,
the chairman of which shall have no
connection with baseball, either as a
club president or stakeholder in any
club" President Heydler said. This
of course means that the National
League does not favor the retention
OF August Hermann, the present chair
man.
The national League executive made
an attempt to see Hank O'Day, the
veteran umpire. to sign him to 1919
contract. but it was later learned that
ODay had left for the South.
