Any District sportsmen interested
in the Maryland League of Sports
men should attend the annual meet
ing scheduled tomorrow at II am.
at the Lord Baltimore Hotel in
Baltimore. ..
The fact that local nimrods and
fishermen have been asked to take a
real part in the deStinies of this
organization is quite gratifying, for
in the past, even though their sports
dollars are spent mostly in nearby
States, they never have been asked
to join in the leagues affairs.
This is their chance to have a say
in how those dollars are spent, and
it is only by organized effort that
any appreciable good ever will be
accomplished.
In the few months since Glenn
Martin proposed the Maryland
League of Sportsmen the growth of
the organization has been phenom-
enal. 1t will be considerably greater
in the next year, after the newly
elected officers get the many pro-
posed projects under way.

CHICAGO. Aug. 26.-Having re-
viewed the manpower situation yes
terday, the National Football League
has increased the player limit from
rs to 90.
The circuit also was motivated by
worries over what the new draft of
fathers might do to team personnel.
The standard of IS players was set
at last April's meeting.
Some of the owners sought to have
the limit boosted to 80 or IS, but
others held it would put an unnec-

There was considerable back-room

CITY ATTORNEY To ASK COUNCIL
TO TAKE ACTION ON PROPOSAL TO
HAVE BONDS OF CITY REFUNDED

City Attorney Thomas S. Caro-,
at meeting of the City Council
to be held next Tuesday evening,
will ask the council to take ac-
ton in the proposal to have the
city's bonds refunded, so that ar
rangements can be made to liqui-
date them over period of 30
years.
The bonds total approximately
81 100000, and the interest on
them is 6 per cent. Even should
conditions continue good in Key
West over period of several
years, Mr.. Caro- said it is prac-
tically impossible for the city to
pay the bonds should the interest
of six per cent remain in force.
