City League; Two New
Amateur Teams Apply

The, meeting of the City Glass A
Amateur Base ball league, scheduled
last night at the city hall, was post
poned because several of the man
ayers failed to appear. President
Frank Jacobs announced that
meeting of the organization will not
be held until after the officials of
the Municipal Amateur Base Ball
association meet, which will prob
ably be sometime this week. =

in this circuit on account of the

age Batterys failing to enter. The
Mickels, it is understood, will not
be represented this season. while the
Willards will remain in Class B.
However, the Sample Hart and
Guy L. Smith automobile concerns
have applied for franchises and these
two teams will probably be awarded
berth in this organization.
A meeting of the Commercial
league managers> has been called for
tonight by President Robert Kroll.
The meeting will be held at the Office
of Park Commissioner Falconer at
the CITY hall.

the sets going at 6-3. 60.
E. NJ. Cattle, who dabbles in gems
when the tennis courts do not demand
his spare time, umpired both matches.
Mr.. Cattle, who is very fussy about
his amateur standing, would not con-
sent to officiate in the umpire's chair
until assured that all the contestants
were 900 per cent proof amateur.
"None Of those semi-pro fellows for
mine," said Mr.. Cattle, finally settling
himself in the chair and calling
al In n or
foot-fault judge, and it was noticed
that Ralph, old boy, watched his step
with great care.
In neat but not gaudy little speech
before the last match began Umpire
Cattle announced that Alexander and
1nce and Rosenbaum and Randle would
play for the championship of Bay
Shore and the first legs on the new
twin Beard cups, placed in competi-
tion for the first time this year. The
cups were on exhibition at the Ince
home, and were voted the handsomest
trophies ever put up at Bay Shore and
points East.
The Alexander-I team started off
with rush and had a 20 lead on
games before Rosenbaum and Randle
could steady down and gain control Of
their shots. Randle's service was
speedy enough to give Rosenbaum
many opportunities to "kill" at the
net and "Doc" made the most of these.

overwhelmed by the concerted net at

Classy Field to Start
In Empire Handicap

The Empire City Handicap. which is
to be the feature of the program for
opening day at Yonkers on Wednesday,
will have a strong field. From present
indications there will be at least ten
starters and the number may exceed
this if the track and weather condi
tions are propitious.
The sharpshooters have made UP
their minds that Audacious and Mimic
II have been the most leniently treated
of the eligibles by Handicapped vos-
burgh and the play on this pair is
bound to be heavy. Audacious has been
improving steadily of late and he is
going to take some beating in any race
in which he is starter if the weights
are not too high.
Boniface, tho ever reliable, is an
other horse that will go to the post in
the Yonkers event. Exterminator may
also be saddled by Simon Healy for
Willis Sharpe Kilmer. The angular
gelding has endeared himself to the
New York public by the game manner
in which he battles out his races and
there is no more popular horse except
ing Man O. War. Mad Halter will in
all probability represent S. c. Hildreth.
