Rather than clueh with the Amateur Athletic Union, the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club of this city haa decided to hold the Iwls and Clark sports this summer under the rules of the union Instead of the North Pacific Amateur Athletic Association as proposed.

The letter states that Mr. Mauner is informed by ihe Washington commissioner of the union that the Health Athletic club is taking in athletes indiscriminately with ihe Intention :f bringing them to Portland to compete at tha exposition this summer. The writer then says titat if the exposition gives any athletic contest it will have to be under tho Amateur - Athletic union control or else It will pntfeasion-alixall who take part. The letter concludes by stating that the Pacific Athletic Association ia considering the matter of sending a team to compete if the sports are under the union's control. i The matter will now lie taken up with the other members of the North Pacific Athletic Association in an endeavor to secure their assent also. . a JAMES F.
