NATIONAL
ORGANIZED BASEBALL NEEDS
THE NATIONAL COMMISSION
Local Moguls Would Not Care to Sec Diamond's Highest
Tribunal Dissolved, as Predicted by New York Man.
Landis' Decision May Cause Changes.
Despite the announcement from New
York, which purports to como from n
baseball official, to tho effect that Iho Na
tional Commission Is likely to be dls
(Solved, such a contingency Is highly Im
probable. It Is possible, of course, that
Judge Landis' decision In tho case of tho
Federnl League Against he commission
and organised baseball may xorce mai
body to dissolve. Nevertheless, according
to baseball men of this city, baseball dees
need a supreme governing body and even
If Judge Landis compels tho commission
to Withdraw officially ns tho highest
tribunal of the national game, thero Is
little doubt that the commission will con
tlnuo to operate, though a new national
agreement may have to bo drawn up or
the old ono revised to make tho National
Commission a legally operating' body.
Not only do tho major leagues need tho
services of tho National Commission, but
tho minors likewise could hardly work
together successfully unless thero were
some man or men to whom they could
appeal In rase of disagreement. "I think
it la absolutely necessary to havo tho
National Commission. In order to tako
tnro of tho minors In their dealings with
one another and with tho majors," re
marked a mnnaKcr of ono of tho Trlstato
League clubs. This seems to be the gen
eral sentiment here, as It was expressed
by a number of prominent local baseball
men and n. manarcr of ono of tho clubs
of tho American Association.
Accord In J to the story emanating1 from New
Tort, one ot the reasons why. It la claimed,
the National Commission lias outlived It's use
fulness. Is that, the triumvirate drawa too much
money from the loarues. That la gtven as ono
ot the reasons for tho failure ot many clubs to
have a successful financial season in 1014.
Indeed. It may be that the National Com
missioners are overpaid. Nevertheless that Is
no reason why they should be put out of busi
ness, Tho remedy is smaller par, but neither
the Hshtentatf nor tho completo effacing- of
duties Is necessary,
As long" as baseball Is to bo operated under
the present system that Is, as long as tho
leagues are bound together and work together
It Is Just as essential that thero bo some
tody to which appeal can bo mado and the
clatma adjusted as tt is that a business firm
have a head and not run Itself by allowing
each cleric to tako care of his end of the
business.
It Is argued that the Federal League has no

NEW YOBK. Feb. 6. Voluntary dis
solution of the National Commission, tho
supreme court of baseball, Is the latest
retrenching schcdula of organized base
ball, according to two men closely related
to tho sport. This drastic movo Is oc
casioned, not by threats of court actions
nor any disagreements between tho pre

because the leaders ara of tho opinion
that baseball has reached an Individual

handling Its own business without help
from a rival concern, nccordlng to theso
two men, ono of whom Is a man for years
prominent In tho official life of tho Na

NEW YORK, Feb. 6. Ed. G. Barrows,

stated this afternoon that his league had
mado application for territory In the
Bronx section of Greater New York.
"If the American and National people
grant tho application wo will transfer tho
Jersey City team to tho Bronx," Bald Bar
rows. "The Bronx has grown wonder
fully In the past five years. It now has
a population of over 600,000 and can well

go to the New York Americans In order
to recover him for organized baseball,
and that Martians probably would be
signed by the Yankees for tho coming

Yale Meets McGill Hockey Team.

Tho Cobb-Crawford combination is
tho moat valuablo and tho most dan
gerous baseball has ever known. Full
records at bat put them above Collins
and Raker or Lajolo and Jackson,
their only rivals.
A Run-producing Record
On an average Cobb and Crawford,
together, will drive over 200 runs and
score another 150 on their own hook.
This total of 350 runs produced by
two men Is half the run total secured
by tho entire Athletic machine, and far
more than half the runs collected by
Red Sox, Senators or White Sox as a
body.

The contender who isn't willing to
take the worst of It once in a while
doesn't deserve the edge when It

The entry who looks after the other
fellow's rights seldom gets the worst
of it in any game.
For it is the rare pleasure and priv
ilege of all hands to sting the guy

"Why Is golf such a wonderful
game7" queries Outsider, Here's one
answer from among E00 or 700 others.
We saw a tournament match at Gar
den City where ono entry was 18 years
old and the other was 64. They both
played well and at an even clip. You
don't find that in anbther pastime
with another punch on the side to ap
pear strongly to a Ted Coy t)r a

Dog Show In Newark Today
NEWARK. N J., Feb 0. Tho Newark Ken
nel Club will hold its third annual dog show
this afternoon and tonight.
Maybe You Expected This
Hereafter tho Chicago Federals will
bo known as tho Whale.t. AVo havo
sought a solution. la It becauso thero
aro so many Jonahs In tho Windy
City?
When Sailor Meets Sailor
When Jack Keating, of tho U. S. S.
Alabama, and Tim Logan, of tho U.
S. S. South Carolina, meet in tho ring
at tho National Athletic Club tonight,
ono of tho fiercest battles among
heavyweights seen in this section for
some tlmo is assured. Keating holds
the championship belt among tho navy
battlers, and Logan Is going to do his
level best to dethrone tho popular
king. Keating Is in grand shape
physically, and Is not worrying about
tho result. Tho battle will be ono for
blood.
"Watch Ted Meredith
We guess you wero very much sur
prised tO pick UP the EVENINO LEDOEtt
yesterday and read of Ted Meredith's
outlined program for mllo running.
Heretofore the world's half-mllo
champion has been competing at that
distance and down to tho quarter, Tho
newa that he would also try his skill In
the mile was most interesting. It Is
nrmly believed that Meredith will
prove Just as invincible as at the
shorter distance. It would not be at
all surprising to hear of America's
moBt wonderful athlete breaking tho
best figures for this distance.
Who Wouldn't Wakenf
Frank Gotch has said many, many
times that ho would never again
wrestle. Maybe he meant it, Maybe
he didn't. Who could remain in seclu
sion when ft fyindred J1000 bills were
rusting within your grasp? Qoteh has
been offered $100,000 to appear in ac
tual conest against three men for the
Sellg moving-picture concern. Talk
ing about turning oyer in your maus
oleum. Osculate and Make Up
Dartmouth and Brown havo resumed
athletic relations, and wouldn't it be a
grand thing for Cornell and Syracuse to
get together. The money which might
he turned into the athletic association
coffers of the two institutions would be
well worth while.
