The rule provides that each club must reduce to the plaver limit by June 1 and that any owner releas- ing a player must notify the other club owners 48 hours in advance of his action, in order % give them op- portunity to obtain the man if they wish, the first application received be- ing given the preference. Al of the clubs except Providence and New Haven were represented.

OPENS LEAGUE SEASON AT WESTERLY Local School Team Will Play First League Contest With Rhode Island Team. » This afternoon the Academy will journey to Westerly, where they will meet Westerly High ih_the first lea- gue game of the year. Westerly High has already lost their first league con- test to Stonington and if they do not win today they are virtually out of the running. Practice at the Academy was light but the men seemed to be in good condition. Sayles will be unable to play for two. weeks owing to his in- jured hand. Ringland will probably cover the dizzy corner but it is mot certain who will play short. Haney who was considered the most promis- ing candidate was sick Thursday and may not appear today. Meek will pro- bably open the game in the box with Fitzgerald or Counihan as relief man. ACADEMY CONFIDENT OF WINMNQ CHAMPIONSHIP. Although the Team His Only Two Veterans, They Present Strong Lineup. (By Manager R. Vincent Horigan.) The Academy baseball team this vear will no doubt develop into - the fastest high school team in the league. Although we have lost three sames, still in two of them we were up against fast semi pro. teams with big leaguers on them. At the beginning of the season there were only two of last year's regulars to build a team on. Several of tire rookies were developed into a fast in- field. Although the outfield is not as sirong with the bat, still on the of- fense we have been as stfong as any high school we played. As to the winning of the league championship* barring accidents, we are bound to win. In the southern di- jon_we have only two teams to | play, Westerly and Stonington. Ston- ington seems to have the stronger Haven Represented at New Haven Meeting — Boston Goes Into Second Place In American League, Cleveland —_—— IN EASTERN LEAGUE Limit by June 1—Any Owner Notify Other Clubs 48 Hours Except Providence and New team of the two, but we do not antici- pate and trouble in beating them.

A TROTTING ASSOCIATIONS MAY NOT AMALGAMATE Uniting. of - National and American Trotting Association to Be Settled May 18. New York, May 9.—Doubt whether the National and American +Trotting Associations would amalgamate at their joint meeting at Terre Haute, Ind, on May 18, was expressed by J. C. Welty, President of the National Association, at the close of a meeting of its board of review here Yesterday. The National could not be expected to surrender its charter he-said, and he questioned whether the American would care to resume its former posi- tion as a subordinate to the national. He said there was a possibility that the national would.not hold meetings | Lecause of opposition by the auditor of Ohio, Who, he said, was of the opin- ion that the money which Ohio paid to counties for encouraging fairs ought to be conserved for war purposes. Mr. Welty suggested that _the National Trotiing Association might agree that winners of races be paid in liberty bonds or war savings stamps and that the receipts on one day of each county fair be devoted to the Red Cross. MARANVILLE DETACHED FROM BOSTON NAVY YARD New Order Notably Means Sea Ser- vice, Boston, May 9.—Walter Maranville, former crack short stop on the Bos- ton National League club, and five other players in service at the navy \‘Arfil‘ were ordered yesterday to report to the enrolling office for further or- ders which means they probably will be assigned to duty at sea. With Me- | Nally, Pennock, Witt, Callahan. and ;G.linfln major league players. Maran- H | | ville formed a nagy yard team which already had arranged a number of games with army and navy organiza- tions in the Bast. Heretofore the men had been under the jurisdiction of the commandant at the navy yard but the new order put them under Rear Admi- ral Spencer S. Wood, in charge of | mavel operations in this district. The | navy department, it was stated, had | authorized the detathment of ball yers from the yard as they be- ime available for service at sea.
