bomb into the Marmon camp by decid-
ing that Johnny Noonan is ineligible for
against the Premiers IN their big battle

Of the Michigan Ontario league during
the early part Of this season and the
committee last night decided that he is
professional bah player, ineligible for
play In the I. A. b. A. until a period Of
one year has elapsed. Noonan's only
chance to play In tomorrows game is 10
prove to President Jarvis that he was at
Bay City on trial. as the rules OF the
amateur association say that a player
who plays one or more games with a
professional club ION trial" shall not be
considered a professional.
The next step Of the executive commit
tee was TO rule the South Side Turner's
Ineligible Tor play In the city title series.
The Turner'S were leading the Municipal

would be permitted to take a crack at the

last night that the disbandment Of the
Municipal loop was just bit OF tough
luck for the Turner nine and that, not
haying completed their schedule, they
h.s,e no claim 10 play in the tournament
This ruling Is all o. X. with the rules
ana bylaws OF the I. A u. A, but the
amateur fans would preferred to have
