DEMANDS LEAGUE MEETING

DR.. Charles Helm. one of the owners

published reports that Camden is pre-
venting Barney Sedran and Marty
Friedman entering the Eastern League
as members of the New York team.
1t is said that the Skeeters were will
ign to let the heavenly twins" come
into the league if they secured Harry
Franckle, but last week both Sheriff
Corson and DR.. Helm said that Franckle
was not necessarily one Of the men,
but that they desired players who in
turn could be handed to the other teams
to strengthen them.
The doctor this morning had the fol-
lowing to say: "rhe Camden team re-
sents any criticism that It is in
any way interfering with Friedman and
Sedran playing in the Eastern League.
and demand that special meeting be
called Immediately to settle the dispute.
Let the Eastern Basketball League
live up to its rules is all we have to
say. Then they will find that Friedman
and Sedran are the property of Camden
and If they ever come into the league
any one securing them must do busi-
ness with us.
AS long as Camden has been a mem

fulfill all it's obligations. We intend to
