Not since 1890 have A. A. U. leaders gathered in Washington. In fact, in that year the present organization was effected here under the “Mills reorgani- gation plan.” How sports have grown in this country since then is revealed in figures presented by the A. A. U, which show that in 1888 there were not more than 3,000 competitive athlefes in the United States, whereas the num- ber now is approximately 5,000,000. In this vast development the A. A. U. has been a powerful force. the largest amateur sports gov body in the world, and none other con- trols as many different sports. It claims jurisdiction in America over basket ball, wrestling. boxing, swim- ming, gymnastics, volley ball, hand ball, indoor base ball, track and field, tug of war, squash ball, code ball and field band ball. It recognizes all sports. 1t was responsible for the playgrous movement and was direclty responsible for the institution of the first public bath in America. It is composed of wwm stretching from coast to . Hoover Is Invited. President Hoover will be invited to feadee by Avery Brundage of Chicass, very Bru o 3 president of the organization. Brund- age was one of the world's leading all- round athletes from 1910 to 1918, when he bore the colors of the Ath- letic Association and the Universitly of Illinois track teams. He won the American all-round championship in 1914, 1916 and 1918. In the 1912 Olympic games at Stockholm he took | fitth place in the pentathion. He is & leading contractor of Chicago. The primary purposes of the A. A.

The Red Sox of Boston are to be en- countered in the two games, the first starting at 2 o'clock. The Washington club was compelled to bill the Hubmen for two games tomorrow in order to play off a postponed match, as they visit the Capital but once after the' Sunday tussling, and then on Labor | day, when they are to stage a double- header again. Capt. and Acting Manager Joe Judge says he will send to the pitcher’s box for the two Sunday tilts Al Crowder and Ad Liska, Both Al and Ad found the going N":fl‘ in their last starts, but it was their wildness that got them into trouble. Against the Red Sox they may fare better, but the Red Sox cannot be accounted set-ups these days. They are likely to step out and give any foe a real battle. Nothing is known of Boston's pitch- ing choices for the twin sketch, but Mil- ton Gaston is apt to be one of the hurl- ers sent into action by Manager Heinle Wagner. Milt has done some fine slab- bing for the Red Sox this season and twice has pitched brilliant against the Nationals, although he has beaten them but once. IKE little children, American League g:nym when on_the field are to seen and not heard by those in the stands. The latest order from the office of President Barnard now posted in the dressing quarters of the clubs reads: “Players in uniform must not talk to tors before or durin games.” those customers at ball yards who have been in the habit of conversing with ball players at odd mo- ments must not think the players are high-hatting old friends when they re- main mum. While the new order may embarass the players at times, it also will save the ter known and more popular players much annoyance. Frequently they have been hailed by spectat in boxes bordering the field and through politeness forced to gab fests with per- sons wholly unknown to them. The new order will spare the players that waste of words and leave them more able to spout words of encouragement to one another on the field of play.

Hoping to get a fair break the club will use Hayes at second against left-hand pitching and Myer there against the right-handers. This plan was discussed between Manager Johnson and Capt. Judge dur- ing the second game of the recent series with the Athletics and it was de- termined to put it into effect as soon as possible. So also was the idea of resum- ing the Washington batting order that was used during the club’s winning stand at home in June. The change in the hitting list was made today, re- storing Myer to the lead-off position, putting Sam Rice to second place and drc‘ggln. Judge down to the fourth notch.

By the Assoclated Press. ARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, August 2.—George D. Widener's crack 2-year-old, Jamestown, further strengthened his position as a leading contender for the juvenile championship with an easy victory in tocay.

Bradley’s Black Tyrone Jamestown, a son of the famous 8t. third, another length to the bad. James, ran the 6 furlongs in the ex- cellent time of 1:11%. Jamestown, & very rapid breaker, quickly shot to the front and opened up a 3-length lead over nine rivals with _Novelist, Camper, Black Tyrone and Polydorous furnishing the early-op- position. At the half mile Jamestown still was going asily, nearly 2 lengths front of Novelist, while Black Tyrone had enough of the hot pace early and dropped back. Speeding down the stretch, McAtee gave Jamestown his head and the Widener colt breezed past the judges with a good 4 lengths of daylight between him and Novelist. The latter showed a ‘ood effort in beating Black Tyrone a length for the place. Black Tyrone was 5 lengths in front of Concord, with Camper, Iron Clad, Blenheim, Polydorous, Hurry Bye and Roan Antelope lack in the ruck. The Glen Riddle Farm's Battleship Grey, with H. Erickson up, won the first running of the Wilson Stakes, named in honor of the late Robert T. Wilson, president of the Saratoga Racing Association.

It is the first time the United States Golf Association ever_ took any of its championships below "the mashie-divot line and while the selection of the Florida course is a tribute to Jackson- ville's interest in public links golf and the fine playing of Bob Wingate it also will test the practieability of Southern courses for championship play.

OBTON, August 2.—Young Bill Miller of the Philadelphia Ba- chelor’s Barge Club had to over- come tremendous obstacles here today to become the national single sculling champion. Miller had to reverse an official rul- ing to get into the championship race, the featured individual competition of the fifty-eighth national rowing regatta and, once in, had to out-scull three strong-armed competitors. To qualify for the championship race, oarsman must first win the asso- ciation single sculls event and this is what Miller accomplished yesterday without half trying. He finished, - ever, many feet off the course and was disqualified, along with Jeremiah 8| of ton, who was declared guilty of the same offense.

Burrows, 23— TARPON, MACKEREL, SHARK ARE CAUGHT Extraordinary Salinity of Water on Eastern Shore Thought Magnet. BY PERRY MILLER. NGLERS visiting the waters of Chesapeake Bay this Summer and Fall may be surprised by the size of the fish they catch, for during the last week or 10 days all kinds of big fish have been landed—channel bass, silver tarpon, Spanish mackerel, drum, a shark and the usual trout, rockfish, taylors, etc. The largest of the channel bass tipped the scales at 71 pounds, the tarpon weighed 40 pounds, the mackerel 42 pounds, the drums from 40 to 60 pounds and the shark, landed in the Wicomico at Rock Point, 475 pounds. What is the reason for these big fish advancing so far up the bay and Potomac this year? Perhaps the prin- cipal reason is given in a report last week from the United States Geological Survey. According to the report the water on the east side of the bay has been more salty than that on the west side in the same latitude. Salinity Is Graduated. The report states that although this condition has been ascribed to the fact that the principal rivers enter the the west side, the rotation of the earth may also be a factor. Another explanation was that the the bay gen- erally depth. “In other words,” the report explains, “there must be a slower movement of m ?mmw:l&erdfmm‘me oeunm' Ilg 8] lee) chann W) the Fuhur water g:»‘wa out over the heavier.” The report also gives the area of the bay as 3,380 square miles, and the inflow comes from a drainage basin of 64,125 square miles. According to the report the nlm"{: of the water in- creases from the head of the bay to its mouth at any given point. It is ap- proximately six parts per thousand in the latitude of Baltimore, 10 off Bloody Point, 12 off Cove Point, 15 at Old Point Comfort. That of average sea water is about 33 per cent, the report lains. !Fwdmdaun.mhnlmumdn- tention to the fact that larger fish are caught on the eastern side of the bay, but attributed it to the deeper water to be found over there. Fish which make their homes in salt water like salt water, and the fact that the water on the eastern side of the bay is more salty than on our side un- doubtedly is the answer to the ques- backed up much farther than usual, which is an_added factor in the catch of larger fish. Fight Purse Netters.

The State of Maryland receives only $256 as & license fee from the purse netters for each net operated. The writer has visited many fishing grounds this year and finds that the sentiment against the purse netters is growing more bitter. Boatmen on both sides of the bay catering to the wants of anglers have :,mmhed to go to Annapolis this Fall present their protest, and if a suf- ficlent number keep their promise, it will mean the end of the purse netters.

ZIHLMAN of Maryland, who made a visit to Garrett Coun- ty a few days ago, has written Swepson Earle, commissioner, Depart- ment of Conservation, Baltimore, re- garding improvement of fishing condi- tions at Deep Creek Lake by the climination of goggle-eyed bass. Mr. Zihlman said he talked with Assistant Commissioner Louis Radcliffe of the United States Bureau of Fish- eries in the absence of Commissioner O'Malley, who stated that while to his mind it was purely a State matter, he would be glad to co-operate in every possible way to bring about an improve- The g-ggle-eyed bass is none bass. It does not grow to a size sufficient to test skill of the angler, and what the anglers want is larger fish. Assistant Commissioner Radcliffe made the following suggestions: First, that a supply of good-sized large-mouth bass be secured this Fall by the State | Conservation Department of Maryland { from the Eastern Shore of Maryland and that the Bureau of Fisheries would furnish one of their fish cars to trans- port these bass to Garrett County, and, third. BY PERRY MILLER. would bring about a thorough under- standing of the problem and perhaps a solution of it, so that the large number of visitors who enjoy this type of sport will be attracted to this sec- ion. Commissioner Earle informed _this column_that he had received Mr. Zihl- man’s_letter and had replied by say- ing_that he himself would be present at Deep Creek Lake on August 7. He said he intends to do everything pos- sible to have Deep Creek Lake one of the finest fishing lakes in the United States. He said he was going to fol- low the suggestions of the assistant commissoiner and secure all the small and large mouth bass possible to plant in this lake. HA“EEOB TO COACH.
