The Ontario Baseball Amateur Association held its third annual meeting here today with forty-four delegates in attendance. President Frank F. RobMns, in delivering his retiring presidential address, predicted a prosperous future for the organization. P. J.

WILL BE REVISED Greater Curb Will be Placed on Clubs and Players by Quebec Association LEGAL ADVISERS CHOSEN Firm of Duff and Merrill Appointed by Governing Body Resolution of Regret Passed At a special meeting of the executive of the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association, held nt the M.A.A.A. on Saturday afternoon, plans for next season and a revision of tho constitution were decided on. The revision of the constitution comes as the result of the George Dufresne case, recently decided in the courts, and a greater curb will be placed on amateur hockey clubs and players in the future. i One of the most important actions taken at the meeting was the appointment of the firm of Dulf and Merrill, who handled the Dufresne case for the association, as legal advisers to the association. The constitution will be revised under the supervision of Duff and Merrill and the association will apply for incorporation before next season.

The constitution was gone over and several amendments suggested to it. A committee composed of W. R. Granger, president; Emile fjarose, Kennetli Stewart, A. Lawson and Secretary W.

J. Morrison was appointed to revise the constitution and to present it nt the annual meeting on December 10. It was suggested by one of the delegates that the regulation affidavit now used by the association as an application for amateur cards be done away with. This suggestion did not meet with the favor of the delegates and it was resolved that a new form of affidavit, which will make it hard to secure an amateur card, be adopted and that the application be printed in French and English as the constitution will be for next season. TO MEET MAY 14.

It was resolved to have the various affliated leagues call a meeting of their clubs and secure an expression of opinion as to the conditions of amateur hockey and report back to a meeting to be held on or before May 14. President Granger suggested that it would be wise to secure suggestions as to changes in the constitution from all the clubs playing under the jurisdiction of the association. It. was announced nt ths meeting that the medals for the members of the Lower Canada College team, junior champions of Quebec, would be ready for presentation this week. The officers ot the majority of the leagues represented expressed the opinion that amateur hockey was on a stronger and better basis than previously in the province.

The clubs affiliated with the City League this season played to almost twice many as the previous vears, which accounted for a marked increase in the gato- receipts. The industrial leagues reported increased interest, as did the junior and intermediate leagues. A resolution congratulating W. Tt. Granger on his appointment as president of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association was passed unanimously.

In responding, Mr. Granger stated that he felt r.ure that he would have the sVipport of the various branches of the governing body in keeping amateur hockey free from tourists and veiled, professionalism. RESOLUTION 'OF REGRET. A resolution expressing regret nt fhe serious illness of Secretary Pe- laney, of the Quebec City League, was unanimously adopted and President J. Ledden, of the Quebec League, was asked to convey the expression of regret to the family of Delanev.

The Paclllc coast president, called Vancouver to win, but intffe Ottawa camp there a feeling that Ottawa will turn the trick. i "Reports were current yesterday that the Ottawas, dissatis.ltd over 'Mickey Ion's work, would insist that a Judge of play be chosen for the final match, but the Ottawa club officials denied this. They said that the agreement called for a western referee and that, in view of the faet that Cooper Snieaton had handled il the games last year, they would not make any objection at this Ute stnge, "Some of the Ottawa players had hot words with Ion Thursday -night i and' the referee is reported to have I threatened to get even the match, but the trouble has evidently blown over and Ion will be i.i charge again.

"Patrick notified the Ottawa club officials, however, that they musl stop the barrage from the bdiich and that Ion would fine any player who did not obey thia. Patrick fears a repetition of Thursday's slugging match would Injure hockey at. the coast and has insisted that tho officials be strict."

The club enjoyed a successful season during last summer and WILL NOT GO TO BRITAIN Mrs. Hurd Will Not Play for Golf Title New York.

April 3. One of te prominent women golfers frequently mentioned as a possibility for the American team which will take part in the BrHlfh ladies' championship tourney at Turn berry, ScotUnd, iate in May. is Mrs. Dorothy Cuiipbell Hurd. who recently successfully defended her championship by defeating Mrs.

F. Letts, western cnampron, in the final match at the "North Carolina resort. Mrs. Hurd. however, has no inten tion of making the trip abroad, and so stated yesterday.

Mrs. Hurd's decision is unfortunate, for she rates at the "top of tiie list of women stars and, judging by her performance in the North nnd South, she has never been playing a neuer game insn sne is at the pres ent time, hnortiy alter winning the North and South title Mrs. Hurd negotiated the Pmehurst course i a 79. one over her ievious record. She has the distinction of bein me umy American woman ever to capture the British title, winning ihe championship in 1909 and repeating in 1911.

In 1908 she was runner-up to Miss Titterton a'fter carrying the match to the nineteenth hole. She nas iso held the women's championship of Canada. HUTCHISON ANNEXED NORTH-SOUTH TITLE Chicago Pro Leads Big Field on Pinehurst Links With Score of 291 (Special to The Gazette.) Pinehurst, N.C., April Hutchison, Chicago professional golf er, won the North and South onen championship today by 'completing his final round in 76 for a total score of 291.

FotherlngJiam, who was only a shot behind Hutchison at noon, took a 79 tor his final roiinri and Peter O'Hara, who was two shots behind Hutchison, took 79 this after noon. This enabled McLeod to slip into second place by playing a fine round of 72. He had a chance to break 70, but took four at the car three seventeenth hole and six at the par four eighteenth hole.

Joe Kirkwood. the Australian onen champion, finished in a tie with Walter Hagen, of Detroit, and Em met F-rench. ot Youne-stown. for ninth money. He was considered as having made a good showing in view of the fact that he entered the tournament without 'previous experi-encd-n sand greens.

The Keds entered the fame Saturday night nine points down as a result of the first of the home and home series played at Ottawa test week when they wore defeated 32 to 41." The total score for the round was 66 to 62 in favor of itho Keds. Saturduy night's contest produced one of the most exciting finishes seen here in some time, as up to the hist ten minutes of the play the Ot-jtnw team succeeded In' retaining their lead secured In the first game I and appeared to have effectively I bottled up the local team, who throughout the game had been shooting in aji erratic manner. At i this point a rally iby Miller, who had replaced Sanders on the forward line, and Uu-onau, each casing a number of difficult shots, tied the score for the Reds and practically assured the local victory.

had the advantage of the attack throughout the gajne but in this manner neglected their de-; fence and through this negligence 5 the Ottawa team was enabled to re-l tain their lead through the first three quarters of the game by count-I ing when the basket was unguard-i ed. The locals' shooting was off color t- for had they been able to talte ad- vantage of all their opportunities they would have piled up a much larger score on the visitors. For the visitors Hearns was the high scorer, that player getting 11 points, but all, as a result of fre3 eSiots. For the locals, Gronau with five field goals and eight free shots for a total of .18 point, was best i rer. Drysdiale wa offeoUvely checked and was held to one field 1 goal.

The first period started at a fast pace that was maintained to the end of the game, with the locals having Uie advantage of the attack I but losing Uiei chances by poor I stiooting. Drysdale netted the first basket Of the game when he receiv- ed a pass near his goal and a mln- later I'orbes caged another from far out, after taking a pass from lironau.

The fine, work of Miller featured (ii the second period, that player fiiorlng three field goals and proving a Iowxt of strength on the defensive as well.

Handera also showed up well and netted the bell twice yn particularly difficult and well placed shots. The lods completely wore down the visitors in the littler part of the period and their shooting Improved miffloicntly to allow fliem to overcome the Ottawa lead of the first game. Mourns for Ottawa svuied seven points on fre throw in this period, due to the offlcieiit work of referee McC'utch-eon In calling fouls with grU regularity.
