He is qualified in every way for the position of president. David Mitchell, who succeeds MT. Smith as secretary, is a young man of ability and it is very pleasing to the directors that he has consented to take the office The death of Mr. Hall also caused number of vacancies on the committees of the association and they were filled as follows: Reception, R. w. Smith; grounds, and buildings, A. 1. Mitchell. A committee on racing to consist of Lott OHalloran, R. W. Smith and 4. I. Mitchell was appoint ed. It was also voted to appoint a committee on bylaws to consist of David Mitchell, Dr. c. B. Tschummi and c. H. Meyers.

 The grounds of the association will probably not be used for a mid-sum- mer race meet of the Short Ship cir cult as Adelbert Needham decided not to ask the association for the use of the grounds as he found there was some opposition to the race meeting being held here.
 The Kaceys defeated Rockville Ka- ceys in Rockville last Saturday even ing S5 to 25. The game was excep- tionally fast, the lead alternating with both teams. At half time the score was 15 to II in favor of Rockville. When the whistle blew for the second half Stafford started out on an m stopatle rally which netted three bas- kets and putting Stafford in the lead, which they retained by narrow mar gin throughout the game. Squirrel" Pallanck was the star, caging eight from the field. Argenta also caused sensation in hopping a shot that seemed impossible. O'Hara the Tray elers star, who generally is the high scorer was let down with two double counters. The cause of this was the heavy guarding of Bernardo. The Summary:
