Teams fliiKhltii: In tho first division of the National nmJ American League pcnnint racot will hercHftcr riiari) in tlio wavers- receipts of tho worltl'H berlcs. ThH declelon was reicheil at a conference nere inuay be tween Aucun Herrmann, chairman ot the National Hawbill Commission, rep refcntlnc tho National IrfaKue, ami PrcHldent Han Johnson, of the American League Tho new plan of dividing the annual baseball prize means that eight clubs will sharo In tho money Instead of only Iho wlnncre of tho two leacue champion ships. Under tho new pcnemo players on the club vlnnlnjr tho world's chnmplon shlp will recclvo $2000 each, whllu tlio losers will bo awarded $1400 each. What amount tho other six clubs lu tho two leagues will get has not been detlnltely decided upon, but It will bo figured out according to n perccntago basis. Chair man Herrmann said. Tho present plan will bo given a trial next fall ami will bo made permanent If It proves satisfactory. "After nwnrdlmj tho winning players 31000 each and the losers J HOD ejcli. wo will divide tho remainder of tho prlzo money among tho plaers of tho teams which finish second, third and fourth." Chairman Hermann said. "Originally wo Intended to place nil of tho sixteen clubs on u percentage basis, but decided 10 maKo a nai sum tor tnoso who par ticipate In the Berles. "1 think the new division will bo sat isfactory to all concerned. It will stim ulate interest in tho races Clubs that aro third or fourth or fifth a month beforo tho cloto of tho season will strive to better their positions because it will mean a larger share of tho prize. I do not believe there will be any lag ging of clubs hopelessly out of the championship. I am sorry to say that has been tho case lu previous years The new arrangement Is tho out growth of an agitation which has been on for sevcial years. When the world's series was conceived It was not thought that It would over reach present-day proportion, Thnjo who drafted tho early plans of tho baseball classic bo lleved tho winning players might re ceive as much as $2500 In some years, but they never thought tho individual player's prlzo would reach $.1500 or $4000. There will bo no change In the method of deducting tho players' share from the series' receipts. They will continue to share In the first four games. The series between Chicago and New Yorlc lnrt fall netted the players $152,888. The White Sox's share was $91,733, and the Giants' $01,165. Members of the rhamplon White Sox each got $3003.32 and the defeated Giants, $2352.13.

Gerald Kmer. son. of the i:ast Orange High School ami Harry I' Dornheim, of Philadelphia, won the junior national Indoor tennis doubles championship this afternoon In the seventn jiegimeni Armory, -iney defeated Harold U Taylor, of HrooWvn Prep, and Vincent Richards, of Yonkers High School, In the final round of the tournament In five grueling sets at 0-4, 6-8. 4-G, C-3, 10-8. The titular match was decided under adverse conditions. Bo cold was tho big drill hall that none of the contest ants was able to show his best form. Tho zero weather played havoo with tho youngsters. It chilled and stiffened their hands and fingers and prevented them from getting proper grips on their rac quets, uetween raiuea iney pui xneir hands In their pockets, and this often caused them to lose opportunities to score, llmerson's hands were so badly chapped from the cold that he found It necessary to wrap mem wun aanesivo tane. The ball, too. seemed frozen, and was so dead that only the speediest kind ot shots carried It across the net, In spots there was some brilliant playing. In some of the rallies the youngsters forgot their suffering and went at It hammer and tongs. Richards, the youngest of the quartet, was a wizard in these rapid-fire ex changes. Ills smashing and short-cross court volleys fairly bewildered his older opponents during tha first three heats and enabled him and Taylor to take the Orst two out ot three.- After losing the first, he and Taylor came back strong and won the second at - and added the third to their credit at .

The annual swimming and life-saving contests of the Phllidelphla Grammar Schools will be held this season Friday atfernoon In the Central Branch Y. M. C. A. pool. These contests are well at tended and tend to dear up some of the points In regard to life-saving that are a bit hazy. , Geventer, who was holding down one of the guard positions on the South Philadelphia High School varsity bas ketball team, has been declared Ineligi ble to represent the Red and Black until February. Geventer first attracted notice when playing on the second team last year. Ills first-class work soon earned htm a promotion to the first squad, where he finished the season as a regular player. Milestone and Passon will endeavor to prevent the opposing forwards from tallying two pointers In the Public High School League contests, which start Friday afternoon.
