MAXWKIJ Morti Va tor I'triilns lVli lo Leditrr (CovirioM, 1030, all rights reserved) GAVVIl CRAVATII, lnnimgcr of the l'hils, is iiinoug us agaiu. The former resident of Luguun. Uenth, Calif., blew in last night with tho blizzard nnd now Is doing his best to become mvlimntcd. High winds, freezing tem perature, and coarbe, hard nov are something new in his young life. This morning, however, after donning his flannels, earmuffs nnd wristlets, he ventured into tho cold, dry world, visited the office of the Phils and conferred Vjjth President linker. While no official statement was given out, wc have it 'ta good authority that they discussed the baseball situation. Cravath is here ahead of schedule in order to attend the sporting writers' banquet at the Hotel lllnglmni tonight. Fifty per cent of the dinner is held ill hia honor, Danny Murphy, tho new coach of the Athletics, being the other half. The manager of the Phils did not ruin his voice in discussing the prospects of the National League club next season. In fact he was about as talkative as Connie Slack on one of his goqd dajs, which proves that good managers must suffer temporary paruljsis of the vocal chords occasionally in order to be a good manager. However, he talked on other things. "I have been on a varatiou," admitted Clnvvy, "and have not given much thought to baseball. I needed a good rest nnd I took It. However, I could not help but gaze occasionally on the line-up for this coming season and wonder how I could strengthen the ball club. We need some new players, especially pitchers uud one infieldcr. but I beliee wc can make n few trades and bolster Eomc of the wtak spots. 1 can't say what will be done, but I am here ready for work and will hae laid mj plans before the club leaves for the Sotith next month, "My home is near Lo Angrlea and I visited that city several times to learn what I could about the ioast plajers. There are seeral good one out there, but they belong to major league clubs. The others are not worth bothering about. It will take a couple of jears to develop a crop of good minor leaguers, and in the meantime I suppose we will have to get along with the old birds. e JT 1IMS looking for a good infieldcr and a couple of pitchers, but ' none tcould do. The manager out there alsu believe in the high cost of ball players, and after viewing the stock on hand, it was just as funny as Woolutorlh trying to charge Tiffany prices. Gavvy Has Great Boost for Young Bobby Meusel OASEY STENGEL was out there for a short time, but I was unable to J locate him, although 1 tried several times. However, he told some of the ball players that he would he with the Phils this year, and I think so, too. Casey is a good plajer when he wants to be nnd his "-alary differences un doubtedly w ill be straightened out. "Irish Meu'-el is in great shape and anxious to get started again. He laid off winter buMcball. gave his arm a thorough rest and his throwing will bo greatly improved. He will be a valuable man for the club this year. He is one of the best free winging, right handed hitters in the league, and in addition, is a pretty good fielder, lie likes it out in the right garden uud that's where he will be stationed. "Bobby Meuscl, his brother, is a wonder. I noticed the eastern papers have been raving about his playing and the dope is correct. The New York Yankees certainly picked up a jewel when they signed this boy. He i, bigger and faster than Irish, has u better throwing arm and covers more ground in the outfield. But how that guy can throw! I never saw such an arm on a huinuu being. He will be the sensation of the American League after a couple of months. "He is a right-handed hitter, and take it from me, he hits the ball as hard as Babe Ruth. I know that's a big statement to make, but it's the truth. He hits 'em a mile und in the pot-season series between Vernon and St. Paul be virtually won the championship for the Coast Leaguers. When I visited the ball park in Los Angeles s0me of the playeri sliowid me where Hobby ' Meuscl clouted the ball, and believe me, that sphere traveled some. If he ever I hits his stride, he ami Ruth will form a walloping combination. ' unOBBY played m the outfield, puttimi up a wonderful game. I Odon't know how good he iw at third base, where J understand ilillcr . JIuggins intends to play him. but if speed and a gnat throwing arm arc y worth anything, he can't help but make good." National Commission May Have A'o Chairman DECORATED in warpaint or something like that and armed with some of our very best hardware, mostly hatchets and hummers the magnates of the, two major leagues gather in Chicago next week for the main purpose of deciding if Garry Henmann is to be given the bum's rush from the chairman ship of the National Commission. They don't give any one the bum's rush in the best social circles, which means that e, accepted. Ihe cards pasteboard, acked to ease August out ot the ohair, la with the announcement mat ne will tothc dope, this will cause a deadlock alpng without a cnairmaa. JjgpgL The National League apparently is tnc ciecpuun ui jit'iriuuuu. xuu iiuuiuuuu uiusiiuie uus ouercu nis resigna tion, but it is whispered in the inner circles that it wouldn't he tough to coax him to stand pat. William V. Baker, the president of the Phillies, is one of the Rational League's committeemen selected to pick u successor to Herrmann, and he says he believes that a new man will he in the fhairmanship next week. Mr. Baker leaves for f'hicago Sunday and will have a talk with William Week, the Cubs' representative and aKo a member of the uuti-Herrmann committee, beforo the joint meeting of the leagues. "Next week will produce a successor to Herrmann. I think," said Mr. Baker. "If it does not, there'll be a warm time, and also if it doesn't the ' '""'--National League will take a strong stand. There i no hostility in this league toward Johnson, but he will be tnld that it is high time a new chairman for the National Commission waH named. "If he has some good man for the place Heydler will vote for him, but the National League is in no mood to temporize further, and it isn't likely that, with the matters he now has to occupy his mind, he'll care to arouse th disapproval of tho National League. And I think we can get some support right in his own league." John Heydler, the president of the National League, states that if John son votes for the retention of Herrmann there is sure to be a deadlock and the commission will have to go chairmanless for some time until the matter is settled. "Nobody would fall off the earth if the commission hud to go without a chairman for a spell," Heydler is quoted us saying. "As a matter of fact, unless wc enter into a new agreement with the minor leugnes, it would bn possible lo get along indefinitely without a chairman Baseball would go along JustT the same, perhaps better, if this chairmanship question continues to stir up this constant agitation und biekcribg. "Despite what may be said there will be a vacancy ou the commission after February 11. I have Mr. Herrmann's letter of resignation, in which he toys specifically that he will sever his connection with the commission on the dato of the joint meeting in Chicago. I have no reason to doubt Mr. Herr mann's sincerity. "So fur as I know there is no change in the attitude of' our club owners on the commission situation. At our annual meeting in December seven clubs reiterated their votes of last winter in favor of a man for chairman who has no financial interests in baseball. That is the league's platform, and I, as president of the league, will attempt to carry it out." fAT THE meantime. Johnson will gather his loyal supporters to protect him in the chairmanship scrap and ulro to aid him in any battle with Frazce, Jluppert and Huston, the thrc American League ' "rebels." Connie Mack and Tom ilhibc, two of Johnson's faithful, i t leave here Saturday and will probably haie a conference with the league boss on Sunday. Local Tennis Voles Against Revision PHILADELPHIA and district icpresentatives to the annual meeting of tho United Stutes National Lawn Tenuis Association will go to New York to morrow unultcrably opposed to changes in rules proposed by the committee ee)cctcd to piukc revisions and suggestions. The main points in rule chunges thut will be discussed and voted upon at tbo gathering, which tukes place at the Waldorf-Astoria ut 0 o'clock tomorrow 'itternoon, will be the foot-fault, scoring and handicap rules. The Philadel pbians who attend the meeting, armed with twenty-six votes, bclicvo that tho t' present rules are adequate uud that it would be unwise ut this time to make tho .radical changes that are proposed by the committee.

Al though New Yoik has staged two in door meets so fur this jenr thut have brought out some good performances, the American Legion and the BrnoMjn College games, these have only acted us primers for the great games that the Millrose Club will hold on next Tues day night. The liUU-vnrd invitation for the Post trophy, as usual, will be the bis: event. The race lias been limited to six con testants, who are Earl Eby, Sellers, O'Brien. Campbell, Baker and D'lve Caldwell. On past performances Earl Eby should win this race. The Pcuu runner is the best man in the nice if i he is in midseason form, but this is early in the year for Lawsou Itobert- son to have his men up to top form and I am nfraid that Eby will prove to be a bit short when he calls upon his reserve to carry through the last lap. Touted hi. New York Sellers who has been touted all win ter by the New York critics us the man to wutch this season, proved to be way off in his only start this jcar, and I do not think that he will furnish much excitement to his followers in with this field. Baker, although running fast over the 1000, will experience his old trouble, the short turns of the Garden track and will not trouble the others unless it is on the first turn, where he has a habit of jamming things up. O'Brien, the Brooklyn runner, is the man that I favor in this race. He is the only one that has given a good ac count of himself so far this jear over the shorter distances, and won in good shape a COO in tho American Legion meet in the fast time of 1.14 1-5. The Millrose race last year was won by Dave Caldwell in 1.10 1-5. which means that the race has to be faster this year in order to keep O'Brien out of first place. In Good Shape Campbell will be without a doubt in good shape, us he put in u season of cross-country running as a member of the Yule freshman team and has bad a good rest hiuce then, whirti, with some work on the boaid truck, will be sure to do him n world of good, Camp bell made his first appearance in the East last eur in this rucc, und fin ished second to Caldwell. Later he run u world's record for UOO yards in Chi cago, hut as it was a special paced race it was not allowed to stand. Such men us O'Brien uud Eby will be out after that position nnd it will take a good sprinter to keep them away from it. ' Banks Wins at Central Newell VV.

O'BRIEN DUBIOUS By PAUL PREP pentkal high SCHOOL is in! I 1 ti.il.ln .1 triple tie for the runner-up posi tion in the Intcrschoiastic League voce. It is two full games behind South Phila delphia High, the pace-setter, and five j Ic'iguo contests lemnin to be plaed. i nuer ordinary circumstances, with a few good breaks, such a handicap would not be very difficult to overcome, espe cially when it is considered that tho Southwnrk quintet has lost its two best plajers through graduation. At least, the Mirrors would have a fighting chance of coming through on top. t But it looks as if the Crimson and Gold has been put out of the running for the 1020 cage cbumpionship. liven Dr. Matthew O'Brien thinks so. and usually the Central coacli is very ton fident as to the ability of his athletes. Here's the dope: In addition to the los of Allen Goldstein, through gradua tion. Ihe team nlso will be without the services of Schwartz. leading Central scorer to date, and Eddowes conceded to be a verj valuable guard. The hit ter two are out because of their studies. Doctor O'Brien has not decided definitely whom he will use to till in his much-battered quintet. It is probable that Till I will work in the pivot posi tion, while Schwartz's job will be eared for by Lii'j". unci Aaronsou will take Eddowes's plate. Game Toda.v The first game of ihe second round robin in the league play is on for this afternoon. South Philly will play Ger mnntown High. Both of these teams will be without two regulars, who starred during the first part of the schedule. Barris and Silver will play, respectively, in the positions -of Gold blatt nnd Desscu, and Doctor Kerr also has decided to use Captuin Leopold in shooting fouls, filling the duties so ably cared for previously bv "Label."
