the main business of the meeting at

of a new method Of play for the Dis

over which the tourney will be held,
the association for many years also
has put its official D. K. on the dates
for the invitation affairs around
Washington.
Here is the probable lineup for the
invitation Journeys this Spring:
Chevy Chase Club, second week in
May.
Indian Spring. third week In May.
Beaver Dam. first week in June.
Columbia, second week in June.
Over in Baltimore the invitation
event Of the Baltimore Country Club
will be set SO as not to conflict with
the tournament schedule around
Washington, for Baltimore expects
and usually gets, q goodly number Of
local linksmen in its tournaments.
The scheduled invitation affair Of
the Country Club Of Virginia, set for
April 1913, inclusive, will not con-
flict with any local event, although if
Winter does not relax its grip they'll
have to use red balls down there in
Richmond. The Hermitage Country
Club invitation tourney, another Rich

been put of until next Fall, so there
is no prospect of conflict from
that angle.

Washington Golf and Country Club
has about decided not to hold an in
vitation event this year and Wood

big events around the Capital the
coming months, with possibility that
Congressional may come into the
tournament picture.

~OLLEGES and universi-
ties in the South At
\ lantic section are adopt
ing a new policy in re-
gard to their base ball sched-
ules In an effort to bolster in
terest in the game and make it
less expensive.
Arrangements are being effected
whereby each of the schools will meet
certain other schools four times. two
home games at each place, with no
guarantee to be paid in either case.
The home team will furnish local en-
tertainment and nothing more.
This policy was instituted last year
In North Carolina. where five colleges
got together and each one played every
other one four games. No guarantees
were paid for any of the games. with
the result that base ball in that par
ticular section was almost self-sup-
porting for the first time in many
years.
So successful was the scheme prac-
ticed in North Carolina that other
schools in the South Atlantic section
decided to adopt it for their 1885
schedules. The North Carolina schools
are doing 1t again this year. In 1895
Washington and Lee. for instance
plans to meet Virginia Polytechnic In
stitute, Virginia. Maryland and pos
Slbly several others in four games
Such an arrangement of schedules
will provide so many games for each
school that the number of contests tc
be arranged with teams from other
sections are likely to be few and fal
between. In North Carolina virtually
no contests are being listed with
schools other than those closely
grouped In that State, with the ex-
ception Of few scheduled with other
Southern Conference schools that
want to SO that way on a trip.
Efforts have been made for some
time to revive interest in college base
ball, which has been on the Wane for
several seasons, and it is hoped that
the new schedule policy will do much
toward that end. According to reports
the new policy as applied in North
Carolina has turned the trick, but
whether or not it will be Just as ef-
fective where institutions are not SC
closely grouped is conjecture that
only time may answer.
