Not since baseball becama popular has
there been such startling rumors and cle-
Tetopments as hrtvo been noticed during
(ti the last two weeks Ho rapid has been
fcy-" the announcements and denlRls that the
fans aro at sea, wondering what will
come next.
In a condensed form, here's what has
happened within a comparatively short
time, and you can Judge for yourself:
"Eddie" Collins has been sold by the
Philadelphia American League Club for
CO.000 nnd two players to tho Chicago
., iTVhlto Sox.
Tho National League between May 1
lujd September 1 has decided to limit

ey City team.
George Wlltso will be the manager of
tho Syracuse club If the franchlsa of one
of tho International Lcaguo teams Is
transferred.
Tho owner of tho Brooklyn. Federal
League Club, R. B. Ward, has announced
tho engagement of II. T. Brewer as his
prlvnto secretary and as the Eastern rep
resentative "of the Federals.
Tho "Feds" wcro not mentioned at
tho executive session of tho National
League.
Tho National Commission conferred
with tho members of tho International
League without result
Federal Lcaguo may return "Hubo'
Uarquard.
Dooin plans to Jump, but
Yankees and Athletics to virtually trade
franchises.
President Ban B. Johnson ridicules sale
of Athletics.
Connlo Mack denies ho will manago
Yankees.
Sherwood Magee nnd Hans Lobert are
to Jump to tho Federals.
Lobert not likely to sign with the
Ttiz."
Collins Is to manago the White Sox
In place of Callahan.
Julius Fletschmann, representing the
Cincinnati club at National meeting, says
Trnlver rule Is n. Joke.
"Jack" Coombs given his unconditional
release by Connlo Mack.
Saturday next Ban Johnson, Comlskey,
Colonel Ruppert nnd Connie Mack are
to meet at French Lick Springs, Ind.,
ior the purpose of earning out tho New
York Yankee and other deals.
"Joo" Tinker's case brought up before
the members of tho National League was
settled amicably bcween Brooklyn and
the Cincinnati clubs. Several thousand
dollars were Involved.
Manager Mack recently asked waivers
on Coombs, Bender and Plank. The lat
tr pair have signed with tho Federals.
JL. deal was started In "New York be
tween Pat Moran and John McQraw that
bids fair to go through.
The new Thll leader's proposition was
this) He offered Ilonua Lobert and Char
ley Dooln to the Giants In exchange for
flvo players who were supposed to be
Rube Marquard and Itube Schaucr, pitch
era; Robertson, an outfielder, and Eddie
Grant and Beatty. inflelders. Tho deal
all hinges on the Marquard case. If the
Wards really turn Rube back to organ
ized basoball, as they said they would
do today If the Giants can show that
they held a prior claim upon his services,
then Moran will allow the trade to be
made.
Dooln. who has given the Phillies ten
days' notice of his retirement from that
club, agreed with Moran not to do any
more dickering with the Federate until
After Saturday, in order to gtvo McQraw
chance to come to some understanding
with him.
Sherwood Magee, Phlllle outfielder,
also agreed to stand firm until Saturday,
although he told Moran that It he were
traded to St Louis, which was contem
plated, he would join the Federals, who,
ho says, have offered hlrn a three-year
contract calling for JS000 a. year.
Magee and Dooln both stated that they
wished to remain with organized baseball,
fcut$vvere not overlooking any opportuni
ties to benefit themselves financially.

CATHOLIC HIGH GAME WITH
ST. JOE NOT ARRANGED
Basketball Contest Hinges on XllgU
blllty Ruling of Latter.
St Joseph's and Catholic High have not
yet arranged to play a series of basket
ball games, as has been erroneously
stated. There Is still a hitch In regard
to the eligibility rules of St. Joseph's
Which l!ivCntliolIc High officials wish to
settle. St Joseph's Is a collego at which
students may attend for eight successive
years, which gives them a decided ad
vantage In building up athletic teams.
Catholic High demands that no student
play mora than four years on an ath
letic team and places a mlxlmum ago
limit of 19 years If the two Institutions
aro to maintain basketball and other
athletic relations. The athletic directors
of the two schools, Greer, of Catholic
High, and Eagan, of St. Joseph's, will
hold a conference this week In which
basketball games will bo arranged If an
agreement can bo reached. These games
would be plnvcd In February and March,
and would virtually decide tho Catholic
schools championship of the city.
Tho students at La Salle College are
strongly In favor of Instituting football
as n sport next season. No nctlon has
been taken by the authorities, becauso
they believe that the present material
Is Incapable of playing a successful grid
Iron game, and It Is entirely up to the
student body to show what they can
produce In tfie lino of football timber.
Tho coming of the football men as can
didates for tho Catholic High basketball
team will result In several changes In
tho line-up. It has been decided to play
Greer, nll.scholastlc centre on the foot
ball team, at centre, and movo Captain
Dunlcavy to his original forward posi
tion. Soveral of Catholic High's football
stars will enter college. Greer, tho heavy
centre. Is going to Yale, Panzullo, a
sterling end, will enter Catholic Univer
sity, and Clavln, a tackle, will attend A.
and M. College, of North Carolina.
La Salle's basketball flvo suffered a
heavy loss In, losing tho services of
O'Donnell, who Is laid up with appen
dicitis. O'Donnell played a star game at
forward last year. Tho team Is going
through stiff practices In preparation for
tne game with Lansdowne next Friday.
Tho present line-up Is as follows: Cap
tain McNIchol and McCarthy, forwards;
Wlndt, centre; Ruff and Callahan, guards,
Coach Donahue, of the St Joseph's
basketball five. Is drilling his men for
their first game next Monday against
Brown Prep. Tho llno-up Is still uncertain
and will not be decided upon until the
last minute.

Owing to tho fact that so many stu

there aro practically none left In icsl

take part In the war.
Nearly nil tho nthletlc "blues" at Ox
ford and Cambrldgo are drawn from the
seniors, and freshmen, as a rule, stand
cry little charicn of obtaining their

Rugby match this year nnd no soccer
match. Captains of all games at both
universities have rocched commissions In
the army. Tho Oxford-Cambrldgo boat
race was Instituted in 1840 and rowed
continuously since lESO. As a rule at this
time of tho year the weeding out process
for tho arslty eights Is well under way,
hut no attempt haa been mode to form
trial eights, nor will any attempt bo
mado to do so. Englishmen are too busy
to Rive nny attention to even so an im
portant eent as the boat race. So there
is hardly any likelihood of the race being
held next spring.

Saturday, Against Muh
lenberg College Final
Line-up Not Yet Selected.'
ltasketball prospects nre brighter thai
usual at Pennsylvania this yenr. Coach
Jourdtl, former captain of the Ited ant)
Wlue, has a squad of more than 60 can
tlldate from which to choose. Tho ma
terlal Is exceedingly fast, and there Is
a sreat opportunity to pick a quintet that
Will match with nny In the League.
Amonj last year's regulars who are In
uniform 'nre: Wallace, guard; Hard
wick, guard, and Uullltt. forward. Cap
tain Seelbach Is taking a rest after the
football season, and perhaps will not
get In cither of the first two games. O'
tho 1917 team of last season, JIcNIcho'
nnd Evano nre showing the most prom
ise. McElora, Qnlllen and Altman also
are playing a great game for second-) ear
men. From last j car's larslty squad
nro McAfee, Rtokcs, Williamson and
Chandler. Besides thoso men there Is
a wealth of unknown material of which
much Is expected.
There Is much speculation as to tho
Inltlnl Ilne-up. From tho combination
used In ncrtinmagei It Is .certnln that
Coach Jourdet Is pleased with tho play
ing of McNIchol nnd Evans at forwards,
and will start them In the first game.
Those two second-year men aro tho clev
erest and fastest men In the squad, and
prove a great scoring pair. As this will
bo their second year of plnylng with
each other, great teamwork Is expected
to bo developed around them, uullltt,
who developed Into a good forwnrd lost
year, han been made first substitute by
tho fast work of this pair. McNIchol
will toss the foul goals this yeor. In
practlco he has been making 10 out of
12 tries.
Wallace will play guard and act as
captain until Seelbach returns to tho line
up. At the other guard will be Hard
wlck. These two men watch tho ball ex
ceedingly close and few baskets aro ever
registered against them. If they can de
velop greater shooting ability they ought
to mako two of tho best guards in tho
league.
Several candidates are contesting for
understudy to Captnln Seelbach, to start
the first game. Of these, McElmea Is
showing up best, and will probably be
given a. chance at the pivotal position.
Stokes, of last car's freshman team,
Is second choice, and mny get Into tho
game for a rew minutes.
