WILL HAMILTON BE IN INTERNATIONAL? Said That There Is a Chance For the Ambitious City- There is more truth than fiction in the annual story to the effect that Hamilton is to be represented in the International League, says the Ham- ilton Herald. It is a fact that Presi- dent Edward Barrow is casting longing eyes this way, and that he is seeking information about the Ambitious City with a view to in- cluding it in the circuit A Hamil- tonian, well known to Barrow, was in New York for a few days, and was quite surprised when the league charge-de affaires shot several ques- tions at him regarding this city. He wanted to know the exact population and the nearby towns from which it] could help swell. its attemdance figures. He stated to the 1 man that it is the intention to forget there is such a city as Montreal, because every club in the league has lost money there, and that Hamilton is the city he wants to land. Syracuse wants to get in again, but Barrow favors Hamilton because of the fact that with Montreal out, Toronto will be the only Canadian city represent- ed in a league that is supposed to bear an international. flavor. The an- meeting of the International League will be held in November, and it will be interesting to watch developments.

Barry is understood to be ready to leave his home in Wor- cester,. where he has been under treatment for a broken hand. Splints have been removed, and the hand is healing well, but the question whether he can take his place at second base in the world's series is still an open ome.

The opposition to the new Devon- shire Park race course, which has de- | veloped in Ontario, coupled with the | agitation which has been apparent in | Montreal for some time against the | predominance of Americans emplov- | ed on Canadian racecourses, seems to | indicate, just as straws show which way the wind blows, that the time is fast approaching when more abso- luge control than at present exists over turf matters in Canada must come into force, or the sport must cease to exist. The action of the Ontario clubs in blacklisting the horses and the neople ronnected with the pronosed new track at Windsor, is largely a mea- auestionably he forced on existing clubs in the Province of 'Ouehec The solution of the difficulty seems to lie in the establishment of a Rac- ing Commission fox Canada commos- ad of Canadians and free as pnses- ihle from political influences. The establishment of a State Racing Qom- mission in Kentucky did mneh ta re- hahilitate the snort there. This com- mission takes full eharge of the rmn- ning of race meetings and insists among other things that emnlovment at race tracks under its fnrisdietion shall be given to none but Kentuck- fans.

THE WOR'IWR RFRIER : TO BEGIN OCT. 7 The Head of National Commis= sion Making Preparation For Series. The world's baseball series 'will open on Saturday, October 7, accord- ing to President B. B. Johnson, of the American League, who as a mem- ber of the National Commission is ready to begin preparations for the series. With the race as uncertain as it is, no final action has been taken yet by the National Commis- sion, Mr, Johnson said. "I am certain that the world's series will start on October 7," said Johnson. The contestants might be willing to begin October 6, but I hardly think so. The American League race closes one day earlier than the National, so I do not think that would be fair to the National League winner. It looks as if the opening game will be played a week from next Saturday." * GIANTS' FIRST BASEMAN Looks Like One of the Big Finds of the Season. Walter Holke, the blonde giant who has filled Fred Merkle's shoes on the McGraw club, looks like one of the big finds of the season. The stalwart first baseman is only twenty- two, and if he keeps on improving like he has for the last year or two he will certainly be one of the fin- est {rst sackers the game has ever had. It was with Davenport, in the Three-1, that Holke got his baseball stant in 1913. He swatted the leath- er .296 in the Iowa city, and in 1914 he hit. 315 for Spokane, in the North-western League, and stood se- cond in fielding among the first base- men of that fast circuit, MeGraw bought him from Spokane, but turned him over to Rochester for further seasoning, and he was batting .341 Teach Your Dollars. 0 Have More Cents hy Trading Here for the Hustlers up to the first of this month, when McGraw recalled him. h Military Team for NH A.
