SHANGHAI AMATEUR BASEBALL CLUB

At the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Shanghai Amateur Baseball Club held on the 25th ultimo, a permanent chairman for the season was_ elected. The election at the annual meeting resulted in a tie vote between Messrs. Joe Eichwald and Fred McIntyre. At the Executive Committee meeting Mr. Eichwald moved the election of Mr. McIntyre, as a result of which the latter will be at the helm for the season of 1921, Mr.

W. P. Willson, was elected Hon. Secretary and Treasurer, and Mr. J. S. Potter was given the newly created honorary post of publicity agent for the organization.

The meeting then discussed the plans for the coming season, the grounds, equipment, etc. Considerable discussion on plans for the season will probably result in the regular season series in which two or three good teams will participate; also special action at the time of the Far Eastern Olympiad to be held in May/June. But most of important of all are the plans for a good series which it is hoped will materialize for the month of August, at which time we may expect the teams from the California universities and perhaps visiting teams from Tientsin and Manila.
