Aggressive Campaign Demanded by President of A. A. U. James K. Sullivan, president of the Amateur Athletic Union, has written a letter or message to the board of governors and delegates at large In which he makes an appeal for an aggr.essive campaign and outlines the policy of the present administration. He points out that few changes, if any. are necessary or advisable, but that the good work of encouraging amateur sport and protecting the amateur must be carried on to a point where the amateur definition, which has always been open to much discussion, will be better and more clearly understood. , He calls attention to the fact that the success of the Metropolitan Association of the A. A. U. is largely due to the encouragement given the Church Athletic League, the Intersettlement Athletic League, the Catholic Athletic League, the Sunday Schools Athletic League, the Mili tary Athletic League and the Public Schools Athletl. League. These leagues are mainly composed of the younger generation, and it is in the interest of these leagues that the Amateur Athletic Union can do Its best work. He urges each association in the A. A. U. to have created one or more of thet»e leagues in cities where possible. . . , • He also says it should be the aim of the Ama teur Athletic Union, through its associations to organize and foster municipal athletic associa tions, and suggests tliat the Mayor of each city be the president of the municipal athletic asso ciation, having as members of the committees the persons who are, in charge of each play gTound— making uniform rules, and paying par ticular attention to the definition of an amateur. He calls attention to the need of a general intercollegiate association to work in harmony Kith the Amateur Athletic Union, and to make eligibility rules and uniform athletic laws, and suggests that it be called the American Inter collegiate Association. Mr. Sullivan does not seem to realize that such an association is al ready organized in the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States, and that thirty-three universities and colleges have joined it. Mr. Sullivan also calls attention to the ques tion of the control of the schoolboy athlete, and fays, in part: The control of the schoolboy athletic element should naturally be taken care of by the col lege athletic associations. But in a national way the colleges make no attempt to control the schoolboy athlete. Nor can they, because the colleges themselves lack a national associa tion. As a result scholastic athletics are not organized. There is absolutely no head and in many parts of this country to-day among hool boys no attention is paid to the amateur defini tion, nor is there the plight eet regard for eligi bility rules. As a result schoolboys in certain sections of this country are being brought up with no knowledge of the amateur definition. no regard for eligibility rules, no regard for studies. And it's all wrong. We must teach the schoolboy that he must play fair in athletics. We must educate him. teach him the difference between the amateur and the professional, and If we gn along on these broad line? I feel that we will accomplish a great deal for organized sport In America. The schoolboy ia the very founda tion. If we get th« schoolboy started on an honest basis the rest of it will come quite natural. The honest pr -fesstonal is a person whom the. Amateur Athletic Union has no quarrel with. We admit there must be professionalism; th«*re jnupt be professionals. The Amateur Athletic Union has no desire to antagonize th*» profes- Etoual — far from it. But it's the deceitful ama tf>ur— amateur who is taking money, sign ing false registration blanks, false entry blanks and perjuring hi.i)s*lf every day — that the Araa te»r Athletic Union Is trying to root out. But lip can only be utamped out by the co-operation of all who ar» interested In amateur sport. And I feel confident that if we go on as we have tr-me In the past the Amateur Athletic Union will within the next few years have alliances with athletic associations at home and through out the entire world. In speaking of the union as a whole he says: I want to state that the Amateur Athletic Union is stronger to-day than ever before. We are all working with the one object- the bet terment of competitive hport. But we must not stay Idle or bo satisfied with what has been done. There Is a great deal more to be accom plishwi. and the strength of the. Amateur Ath letic Union will come from Increased member ship in each section of the country; therefore I hope that the officers of the different associa tions will at once strive to Increase their mem bership and endeavor t.» organize Sunday school athletic leagues, church athletic leagues, public school athletic leagues, etc., and thereby build up in each association of thA Amateur Athletic Union an association that will b<» a credit to ua in years to come. In answering critics, all of our members of the board f governors and officers of the local associations can state, without fear of being contradicted, that the Amateur Athletic Union Is without doubt the purest governing body of amateur track and field sports In the world. And that means a great deal. It is quite tru« that there will be found occasionally an amateur who la not honest, but legislation will not stop crookedness In sport We must all try to Instil Into athletes that spirit of fair play and honesty. I think that is better even than legislation, be cause legislation will not stop dishonesty. In referring to the growing need of public playgrounds and baths. Mr. Hulllvan says: I ask each association through its officials and through the officials of clubs that are mem bers of the association to take up the question of the promotion ol playgrounds and public gymnasiums and baths. The Amateur Ath letic Union since its inception has stood sponsor for such Institutions, and a great deal of the work that Is now being done in playground movements, public gymnasiums and public baths can be attributed to Influences that the Amateur Athletic Union is responsible for. It Is quite true that in some cities these institu tions are quite popular and are being operated successfully; but in many other cities they are being neglected and no move whatever Is made for their establishment. Therefore It will be ab solutely up to the officials of the Amateur Ath letic Union and the officials of Its club members to initiate all movements that are for the good of the boys of this country of ours.

The plan to utilize tb* land of tlie Catskill Aque duct for an automobile highway from NVw York to t iio north, whl»-h has been advanced by automobil ist*. Is recetring the enthusiastic support of New Tork and Westchester real estate men. who hay« .starteil a movement to further the idea, on the ground that sui'h a road would add greatly to land values. Since the automobilists launched th< Idea there has been much favorable discussion about it In realty circles. John U Parish, of Parish, Kisher & Co.. said: There is no question that if the uae <>f th<? •atskill Aqueduct be a practicable thing and tbe legal ami financial questions can be arranged, the road would b»- of givat value t«> the section north of N>w York. Such a project could not have be»n developed with out the Instruiiu-ntalUy of the automobile, but now that the automobile Is coming into such general use I can see how. with hucli r road, the whole.ter ritory for fifty mile.-? might well bocome the home site "for many wealthy New Yorkers. If this road were huilt simultaneously with the construction of tin- aqueduct, it could b« mail*- for a fraction of what it would .st If undertaken as an inde pendent propostion. I cannot see how such a road could affect land values at all, detrimentally. In fact, before five years after the completion of a road of that kind, land values would be increased by an average of surely over 200 per cent. The Increased revenue which would Inure to the locali ties involved would not only pay good return on the Investment, but provide a sinking fund by which the cost could rapidly be recouped. George W. Reeves, of William H. Hoyt * Co.. said: Automobilists will be heartily supported by real estate men In their preposition to make the land of the aqueduct useful. Such a road would lead . many people to build in W'estchester. and to pr»s- ! ent owners this new means of access to the city would undoubtedly he a great benefit. Others. I believe, will be enthusiastic In its support. I think there would be little difficulty in making the road self-supporting. A toll could be levied, and I kno<v i that automobilists would gladly pay to run on such a road, where they would not be constantly in danger of violating speed ordinances, or of in juring pedestrians and frightening horses. In my opinion, a moderate toll on such a road would yield a large Income. Oeorge Gascolgne. of Charles Field Orlften & Co.. said: The plan to utilize t!-.ls city owned land for an automobile highway Is most important. W> cer tainly are heartily In favor of Buch a project. H. W. Nichols, broker and dealer In Westrhes ter County real estate, said: The proposed road would be of great advantage to .the section through which it passes. It would , please the farmers kn keeping the v pesky ma chines" off tho highway, a thing which they are continually grumbling about: It would bring da- j slrable people In touch with that section of th« country, which would result In the selling of farms , and the building up of the section through which ' this course runs; it would lessen the danger of ac- : cidents, and would be of benefit In general to the residents, and particularly so to autnmoblltsts. PLAN LONG AUTOMOBILE TOTJB. Rules Being Framed to Meet Requirements of All Cars — A plan for a Ion? touiinK contest on a basis deemed equitable to all sorts of cara haa been worked out by the contest commttt*« of the Na tional Association of Automobile Manufacturers. Most of the rules for It have already b«»en framed, but what the plan Is will not be known until tbe annual meeting of the association, which Is to be held In New York on January 16, during the week of tho Madison Square Garden show. It Is expected that this new contest will be favored by the man ulaoturers In preference to the Gltdden tour. This la the busy — sson at the factories, and all motorist* or those who Intend to Join their ranks should. If possible, pay a visit to some one of the plants and contemplate Its methods and organiza tion. It Is often a revelation for a mvn who has & prejudice or a flatterlny preference to Inspect the factory that Is behind the car.
