BE In LEAGUE
THIS SUMMER
Internationals May
Take Place Of
Miami

$1,000 FAVORED

Nogales may fill the gap left by
the withdrawal of Miami from the
Arizona State Baseball League, it
became known with the return OF
AL Whipple from Tucson where he
attended meeting of the league Of
ficials Saturday afternoon.
The Miami delegates said it would
be financially impossible to place
a team in the league this summer.
The Nogales Internationals, semi
pro team, which has been free lane
ing, agreed to fill any vacancy II
the salary limit was cut to $4,000.
It was brought out at the meet
ing that Bisbee may also not be
represented in the league this year.
Every team in the league was rep
resented as the meeting got under
way. Pat Nathan, chairman OF
committee named by President Will
ford Sullinger to investigate league
conditions at the end of last season,
brought five recommendations.
They were:
1. That the salary limit be low
cred.
2. That the league decide whether
the organization use the split or
straight season, and inclusion in the
bylaw or rules covering the play
off.
8. That instead of the club on the
road paying all of its travelling ex-
penses, as heretofore, that the home
team pay the visitors 20 cents from
every ticket sold.
4. That the league cut the salary
of an option player to $100 monthly,
and that this would be strict rule
and to be observed as gentleman's
agreement.
5. That the league make strict
rookie rule, making it necessary for
each nine to carry so many rockies.

one named Alex Silverman, and the

Ministers Oppose
Proposed New Law

The following, handed to the No
gales international yesterday for
publication, is self-explanatory:
Whereas it has come to the at
tention of the Ministerial Associa-
ton of Nogales that a bill with re-
ference to divorce is to be introduced
to the legislature of Arizona, there
fore,
BE 1T RESOLVED that this As
sociation hereby protests against
the introduction and enactment of
aforesaid proposed legislation on the
following grounds:
Firstly, we believe it to be out
of harmony with the teaching of
the Christ on this subject.
Secondly, we believe that there
is no moral demand for such legis-
lation, the reason given for it is
that of getting money from people
VINO now go to the state OF nevada.
Thirdly, we believe that it offers
no relief to our citizens on the sub
ject of divorce, neither does it bring
relief to others who do not possess
sufficient money to establish their
citizenship in another state.
"Fourthly, we believe that it will
offer asylum to those who are un-
willing to accept the mandates of
their own states on the subject.
"F'ifthly, we believe that it will
bring odium upon our state result
ing in unfavorable advertising, and
social and economic disparagement.

Secretary"

GOOD WEATHER | NEED FOR LIVELY
 FIGHT CARD FRIDAY

Fit as a fiddle and down to 173 pounds, Jack Kelly finished hard training for his main bout with Tony Shucco of Boston on the post poned outdoor boxing opening, booked for tomorrow night at Lakewood Stadium. Yesterday, an- other good-sized gathering sat in |Coppettos gym on Bank street to watch the boys go through their drilling and to say that they ''got tan eyefu" is putting it mildly. With Ia break in the weather, the bouts will go through as scheduled last week, and from the physical condi- |tion of some of the fighters there should be action galore.
 A New Face.
 Young Joe Arnold, who is tossing |away his state amateur middleweight |titles in order to make dollar at the game of fisticuffs, is booked to |open the show with Sailor Danny Murphy as his opponent. Joe has been training at the Bisac gym in Brooklyn and his handlers report him ready for action. Murphy has been working out at Coppetto's with Al Mariana and other boys and feels he is about to begin a sensational |comeback, starting tomorrow even ing.
 Six Round Special. With an extra week in which to condition himself, Marty Sampson of West Palm Beach is ready for his test with Battling Archie. the colored welterweight, which is down for six rounds. Marty took the bout last week at short notice, and though he was in good condition is much bet ter now, due to the postponement. This pair should make decided hit, as they are not only clever but hard hitters as well.
 Real Opposition.
 Unknown Winston, judging from the activity he has displayed in training, is quite apt to give Marty Fox a whale of an argument in, the eight round semi-final. He is two handed slugger who works from crouch, and if Fox cannot reach him with his sharpshooting right hand. it looks like a win for Winston First bout S:30 p. m.

 Fitzgerald is what is known in the vocabulary of the game as, a "club fighter"-that is, boy who gives plenty of action in all his battles as opposed to the often better-known boxer who is content to outsmart his opponent but with little effort to make a real fight.
 The Cleveland lightweight's rec ord shows decisions over Young Jack Thompson, now the welterweight champion; Young Harry Wills of Oakland, Cal; Babe Ruth of Louis- vile; Joe Trippe of Rochester; Petey Mack of Jersey City; Benny Burns of Akran, and a score of other boys. sr n, There is promise of some real mill ing on the undercard to the Battaii- mo- Datto 'battle, especially in the Reilly-Co bouts and in the clash De- tween Eddie Reed and Rene Peio- quin of Danielson. the latter the boy who fought Nick Christy siasnln'' battle on the Battalino- Martin card.

Few golfers enjoy playing on a windy day. A majority blame every little miscue on the wind, whether or not the wind affects their game. The truth is that many of them are panicky before they ever start to play on a windy day
 Bobby Jones offers soPe good ad- vice for those who encounter stiff winds on the fairways. He suggests that the backswing be curtailed and the ball be hit less viciously. With short. compact swing. the golfer is less likely to err. In a gale the ball must be more accurately struck, for any mistake will be magnified by the wind.
