day, They Are Not
Downcast, Are Fighting.
CHICAGO, Jan. 21. More spcclflo
charges against organized baseball were
td bo heard today whon Judge Landls re
convened hlfl Fedoral District Court to
hear the suit of the Federal League (or a
temporary Injunction agntnst the organ
ised forces. Attorney Kecno Addlngton,
of the Federals, was booked to do the
Iron man stunt and return to the box
again today dcsplto his five hours of word
pitching yesterday. There was some hope
held out today that the other two Federal
lawyers and the ten legal luminaries on
the O. B. line-up will not consumo the
amo time at bat Addlngton has.
Organized baseball today was far from
downcast over iha verbal attack with
stood yesterday. They pointed out that
they will dovolop Just as deadly a sys
tem of batting attack as anything the
Federals have shown to date. Judgo
Landls having sot no time limit on the
arguments, It wan not believed organized
baseball forces would get their "Inning"
until late this afternoon or tomorrow at
tho earliest. At that time tho captain of
tho O. B. team, Gcorgo Miller, will lead
oft tho batting order.
There was another big crowd on hand at
tho Federal Court's Building today. AH
available seats wcro lilted early.
At tho session yesterday Addlngton
devoted a largo portion of his address
to an attack on the waiver and draft
rules and practices. He declared the
former vested control of the player not
olono In the club ho serves, but also In
other clubs. His chance of becoming a
free agent Is slight, according to Ad
dlngton, Blnce It requires action of many
different entitles. Addlngton charges
that the waiver method Is used as a
means of Humiliating or disciplining a
player, and-then brought In the charge
made In ail affidavit by Mordccal Brown,
that when President Murphy, of the Chi
cago Cubs, sold htm to Louisville It who
with tho agreement that Brown never
would be allowed again to Join the ma
jors. Judge lAndls was particularly Interested In
tho JJrown case cited by Addlngton. and asked
that It be retold. Ho showed a knowledgo of
the national Bam by noting, which counsol
had not done, that a petition purporting to
to from the Players' fraternity to the Na
tional Commission was signed toy players from
only one club. It was erplalned that tho
players bad petitioned by teams.
leaders of organized baseball expressed
thoraaelvcs not surprised at anything; the
Federal League presented yesterday.
Addlngton declared the national agreement
provided a series of weapons for use against
tho "'enemies or organized baseball." among
whom It placed, ho sold, any persons who
went against Its rules.
The first weapon, he said, was tho national
agreement Itself, used to keep In. lino the
purtlea tn It; the second was tho rute regard
ing territorial rights, which was Intended
mainly for use against those enemies operat
ing (rom within, although It was used also
against tho Federal League; the third was
found in the rules regarding contracts; the
fourth in the alleged "blacklist,'' and the fifth
rtyllng as "outlaws" and "contract Jumpers"
U opponents.
The national agreement's rule that It U In
dissoluble except by unanimous vote admits
of hut one fair deduction, according to Ad
dlngton; first, that It provides against com

Another Scandal Opened
Borne time ago it became our bleak
and painful duty to uncover the golflng
status of Old Ring Lordner. Today wo
have an equally rude assignment on
hand, in the interests of art and truth.
Prof. Damon Itunyon writes that
while 'Wllbert Robinson, the Brooklyn
leader, was presented last year with a
set of golf clubs he had never put them
to use. Evidently Robby Is at least
partly a golfer at heart. Ho has re
placed the divots upon his record. But
we happened to be In possession of the
facts.
One day last fall we Journeyed over
to Hnglewood for a game. It was on a
Monday. As we stood on the first tee
and surveyed the winding fairway of
the ancient green below us it sud'denly
struck us that an Innumerable list of
alterations had been made In trapping
the course. There seemed to be at least
200 new traps, bunkers, earlhen mounds,
ragged trenches and zigzag ruts added.
Far and near the earth there had been
riven and rocked, thrown up and scat
tered. Everywhere, It seemed, except
In the direction of each hole.
We thought for a moment that a new
system of trapping had been developed.
We mentioned It to the caddie. "No,"
eald the kid, "I guess It was all my
fault. I tried to put back some of the
divots that big guy made, but I fell
into one of them and came near break
ing my neck so I let 'em alone."
"What big guy?" we asked.
"That guy," he said, "that manages
the Brodtlyns, That Wilbur Robinson.
No wonder his ball club can't win no
ball game. Cap Huston brought him
out here yesterday and now we ain't
got no golf course left."
The Duffer to the Pro
You've handed me the proper form,
Tha proper stance and grip;
Tou'va shown me how to swing the
wood
And pice the cleek a flip;
You've shown me how to hold my head
And get a follow through;
Now show me how to get around
In Ninety One or Two.
you've" shown me how II. Vardon swings
The driver from the tee;
you've shown ma ftotti the shoulder
works,
(And eke the hip and knee;
You've shown me how eaofr club Is

To this, sir, I confess;
Now show me how to play around

ROCHESTER BOWLER ROLLS
SEVEN 300 SCORES IN DAY
From Rochester, K, Y comes a
story of how Loonard WIttman, of
that city, rolled seven perfect scores
In one day, After telling; of tho ac
complishment of the feat, tho story
continues!
"WIttman rolls from the extrome
corner of the alley, laying hla ball
down, and, as th6y say In tho ver
nacular, letting her 'ride,' Ho uset
a fair amount of speed and nlso de
pends on n hook over which ho has
excellent control, seldom crossing
tho head pin, but M times out of 10)
shooting the ball right Into the
pocket on the right side.
"Six of the seven 300 scores were
made when WIttman shot his string
of 10 gamcB. His real rotllng was
done in the noonday session, when
for tho 17 games ho totaled 4630
for tho grandiloquent average, of
275.6. Here's what WIttman rolled
In his first session on tho alleys! 250,
2C8, 266, 278, 317, 229, 800, 216, 300, 215,
800, 235, 300, 230, 300, 300, 279; total, 46S0J
average, 275.5.
In tho later sessions WIttman

205, 258; total, 2S32j average, 257.2.
"Wlttman's grand aggregato for tho
ST games was 7212, nn averago of
267.8."

NEW YOJIK. Jan. 21 Harry A. risher,
Sraduato manager of athletics at Columbia,
enled vesterday that thero was any breach
between Yale and Columbia relative to a date
for their dual meet In the Intercolleglato
Swimming League. It was said that Columbia
had arranged to swim the Ell amphibians this
week, forgetting that examination would In
terfere. According to tho story, Columbia wna
supposed to havo asked Yale to transfer th&
date to next month, but the New Haven col
legians refused to do It. Fisher denied that
there had been a, dispute and added that Co
lumbia would meet Yale here on February G.

Or Chess
The Moguls of laselaU now fight to the
death;
Their cannons are writs and their pow
der is treath.
The cohorts of tennis are now waging
war,
And some of the track men are said to
be sore.
Alack, we may rise up some sunshiny
day
To find there's a war in tho ranks of
croquet!
This Is Positively Brilliant
Ideas for the dear old Phillies seem
to bulge out right and left. Credit
now is due Princeton, which has ap
pointed as head football coach a man
whose practical football experience in
college was confined to holding the rec
ord for the 100-yard dash. As you may
have suspected, this is a track and
Held sport. But to the Idea. "Why not
get some one like Jerry Travers or
Thomas Lipton to manage the Phils?
Have You e. Pet ElephantP
Mike Dorizas wants to borrow it, or
a dinosaur or a big; Hon or some slch
anlmllo to help him Bet into shape for
the intercollegiate wrestling; matches.
Hike, who's not exactly weak,
Will endeavor not to hurt it;
XT Is gentle, kind and meek,
And if he should, haply, flirt It
O'er his head as 'round they tussle,
Michael can't be blamed for muscle.
What NextP
Speaking wee we not? of exerplse,
there is the new scheme of Penn's
basketball team, which is bound to get
it the exercise. No less an authority
than Orvai A. Wales, manager of the
team, announces there will be dancing
following; the game Saturday with
Princeton. Any tangoer knows Penn
flatters Princeton and basketball by in
timatlns the team andthe game can
warm up tangoers to flrst-ctyss dance
condition.
It Is Essential
Rivers' match with Shugrue at Mil
waukee has been cast violently into the
discard because Jnaenh .,! tn .i

laea. in boxing is to win if you would
