President Scheffer admitted that he expected some little opposition from the plnjers on not allowing them to compete in more thnn one league, but such was the result of the grand free-for-all last season, which almost put n crimp in the sport. Several deals aro now on for the services of players. Every rule will be enforced antj in the near future a substantial forfeit will be posted by the league heads. When a team wishes to release a player, the manager must first notify the head of the -commission. If no one in that particular circuit wishes him, waivers are sent to the other leagues. The waiver price i ?2,", $15 of which goes to the club disposing of tho player und $10 to the commission. Plnus were ulso formulated for the playing of n series to determine, tho championship of the four leagues nt the close of tbe year, and the schedules will be so arranged that the regular season will come to a conclusion the third week iu March.

The feminlnT part, of it. everybody remarked, wns unusually apparent as to hose, rouge and cigarettes'. Anyhow, every one wns grouped around a lone figure peaceably engaged In the gentlo art of pitching golf balls with a mashie nibllc into nn emptv box which had once contained canned beets. When we add that he was dressed In a brand-new golf suit, thnt he wore n black sweater over his white shirt, thnt he laughed like a boy every time he dropped a ball In tho grocery box hjkI that the, gallery applauded the same vociferously, you will realize, or should, that the center of attraction wns none other than Walter Hagen. open golf champion of the United Stntes. Who -had beaten Jim Barnes the dny before by four strokes for his third metropoli tan title, and had been bnck in this countrv about a week after wiuning,the open championship of France. Between the hours of 12 nnd 7 yes terday Hagen tied the course record at Hollywood with a 72 nnd broke it with a 70, defeated Harry Vardon and Ted Bay. stars of Briton. 4 and 2, some what by his own efforts and earned something more thnn S4."0. This, of course, after he had con scientiously pitched all of his dozcu balls in the grocery box. Hagen Is Hagen How to take him nobody much knows. He's the most enre-frce, jnjnus, color ful und abandoned champion we ever had. He wns the sunshine of a cloudy dav. and watching him in action was exhilarating as the seaside breezes that wafted across the course. The samo question must have beeu in evrrj body's mind at the linsh. How can they bent him nt Toledo nnd how did thev beat him in the British open? He finished, it seems, FIFTY-FIU.ST over there. Hagen speaks for himself on the lat ter. "It was my first try for tho British title." he sajs. "and from the time it wos announced I was going over there was much discussion on my chnnces. I got all kinds of offers amounting to fabulous sums if I should win. My friends were laving big bets on me, and every way imaginable it wus distinctly up to me to win. But I tried to forget Jl Ullll lliuj iu kuiiiu UtVl W1C1I-. - ilngeu sold tnat lie was hpltndldiy received abroad and that his prilimiuaiy work, with that of Barnes, was closely followed bv the Britons. "Wlien we bent Mitchell and Duncan I rcnlized we had a real chance." con tinued the champion, "and aualifvlng in fourth place for the open, gave me great satisfaction. But my piny the day be fore the open at Deal was very bad. My shots weren't going aud the horrible thought camo to me that I might do as badly the next day." He did. He linlshrd that disastrous day nineteen strokes behind the leader, hopelessly removed from an cliiince for the title. Hugcn wns in tho rough on twelve holes in his first round, slices ,niU books being aided by the winds. "I couldn't get the feel of my clubs nor the touch for the shots I changed drivers nt the sixth in the morning, but it didn't do any good, so I went buck tn the old standby. I struggled through the first round nnd tried to catch up In the afternoon, but It was just as had. I knew I was done for, but 1 resolved to play out tho four rounds anil turn in m card, which I did. Then I forgot it It was one Ilritish championship I'd lost. I'm going to try ngiiln next jear. I think I'll do better nt Ht. Andrews, where it will be played, than nt Deal." Turf Burnt Hagen said the course at Deal, on the Channel, is devoid of trees, anil Is swept by particularly trying croi,s gales. The turf of tho liberal fairways Is de scribed as browned by tho sun. particu larly along the const holes. The course una laid out through tho creat dunes which provide the undulations nnd most of thujmzaras, inougii tnero are it tew traps cut out. Where tfere Is a level place among the dunes, a green lias been nlnced, the natural grass having been cut close for the putting carpet None of the greens wen; built in, of apecinl earth und seeding, It Is suit). The fairway Is a constant succession of bumps, hollows und undulations. The run-up approach prevails, not a Hageu pitch. Those who witnessed tho piny blamo the weather .nd tho conditions of the couisn entirely for Hagen's failure to do better. Thevvnlso throw many interesting sidelights on his nppearnnce abroad. Every ono wondered how our colorful champion would iulpicss the serious minded -British fan and critic, i At the. stnrt. It appears, a wrruig !m nrcwjisH "l hlnj ,ti prcutjd, but t;o. NEEDS' A FRIEND CHAMPION, IS McNIBLIGK wnrds the finish, when they had gotten used to his dashiug style, and n few of his prnnks. his popularity grew until there was real disappointment nnd sym pathy for him in not having finlsheU better. He wns quoted right away ns say ing, "I uil win tho championship," in n first interview, which was later cor rected to "I have come 3000 miles to try to win." In the Mitchell-Duncan match he is nlleged to have said to Barnes, "We've spotted these fellows' holes enough, let's start," for the benefit of the gal lerv. The night before the open he' is-said to have chosen the promenade hour to entertain the concert throngs by going in the cool of the evening to the board walk and driving golf balls into the ocean for the edification of all. They couldn't get over that. But the crowning blow wns evidently delivered when they asked him who was going to caddy fop him. "M 6bauffcur," Hagon replied nonchalantly. For a pro to have a chauffeur, that was too much. AVhcn they found out he d hired a taxi to get to nnd from the course nnd that the driver happened to have taken a fancy to Hagen aud was a caddy, nt that, iu spare time, that made it different. But for eacli of the four founds of the chnmpionshlp. Hngeu is said lo have worn a different golf suit, nnother shock to pro golf over there. His lordly trick of waving his hand nt the euds of gallery lanes to see them fall back also mudo Its impression. And Return But when it was nil over and they got to knew him for the sunny person he is, for his courage and good sports manship, he made friends of them nil and they want him back next jcur very much indeed. V "What hns vour hnlil Wnllni. rfm,t" mon flinti'ml io "Oh. I Fny. n storm ing shot!" as ho hit one out of tho lough, or "A hit meny. j'know, but not so rotten," If he perchance ovcrplajed one to the green, and similar British golf terms of admiration or sympathy. For an exciting finish the sentiment rcaly seemed to be, it is said, that they would have liked to see Hagen finish, soy only about a stroke behind any Briton. Which is fair enough. Hagen wound up the exhibition yes terday with u shot that was Hageu esque, if there, ever wns one.' He scored an eagle on the thirty fourth hole. 470 yurtls. His drive was longer than Barnes, Vnrdon or Bay nnd hit and he followed It with a brassie which bounded for tho green side ele vntion. Its fute wns undecided until it struck the hosiery ot one of the fair fans nnd stopped off the green in the coarse grass some forty feet from the pin. Hagen took his putter and holed out. There was terrific appluuse and more when Hagen played the bve holes and got his seventy, two under the course record. When four stnrs such us these gather the play throughout is a tlrtvo and ap proach, or two nt the long holes, holes being won ulniost entlrclj on the put ting fortunes. Hero Ynrdon wns woefully weak in tho morning. Sometimes his were n foot off the line. He managed to get his line after luncheon, hovtever, and quite held his own In this department. All day Barnes was rimmimr. inmnlnc or hitting the bnck of the cup on his tries on the long ones, or ho would huvo had n very successful day. The same putting cost him the metropolitan title. , Hagen was the one who generally tried for tho birdie, after Barnes got par, If possible. Hagen's tries weie very bold but if he lnissid, the impres sive, pnrt was that he always holed from three or four foot coming back Bay ployed the sumo rolo but lacked some of his other-duy phenomena! touch. Vardon's Iron ploy In the nfternoon wns superb. It was a real tieiit to tho several thousand present who will ever admire the ease and grace of the veteran Briton rt style. Hagen h uutxhio Iron work featured the morning round, Tho Britons only won one hole in eneh round, both birds. Bay took tho third hole in thu morning with u long putt nfter a beautiful second, anil Vardon wan tho sixth In tho second round with nn ncross- tho -green putt. Close to S000 funs followed over the eight miles of piny. It wus a day of thrills and n greut victory. Mrs, Cams Golf Winner Wrrnrrnvllle, Pb Aug 'J.

Getjt Soldiers "When Mackay learned that ho w'ould not get the co-operation of the police dcpartmcpt to handle the crowd he arranged for 150 soldiers to take up the duties Inside of the ntena, which wrfs not taxed to its capacity. Of the thousands t?f tickets printed for the show, 1400 remained unsold, so that there was no reason why every man at tho nrena should not have had his scat. 'Had there; been even only twenty mounted fylllce outplde of the eib to handle th crowd and as many policemen Inside the nrena there would have been no rush for seats nor jamming of the aisles, for the fans ne always ready to act accordingly if there is some one to keep thc)p ItJ order But lack of law keepers Vjjs conspicuous, and once a mob gets to Jamming and pushing there is no way of stopping It. "Brennnn knows that he made a mis take, doing so because of his ill-feeling toward Mackay, between whom there lma hpen no love for a number of years. This personal feeling caused Brennnn to rciuse to co-opernte wttii .uuckuy. who, as tho promoter, did everything iu his powr to handle the crowd success fully; but, without the assistance of the police department, it waa au im possibility. "There u only ono man ropon'mie for the black e.ve given boxing in New ark last Monday night nnd Brennnn is that jmtn. JVnti nc, winie ne is inton ing up Tiis Sleeve today, knows it." Could Bepeal Bolng In commenting on the probability of repealing the boxing law in New Jersey, Commissioner hmiui said: u any ono wants to have boxiug in Jersey, where it hns been run so successfully that It really had a lot to do with the passing of the bill Jn New York, no one can did so more easily than I. I had more to do with tho introducing of the bill In Jersey than any one else I know , and I enn have the law repealed if it comes to a show'-dovvu." A story fiom Ncvvnrk last night stated that there would be-no more box ing in the First Begiment Armory until sufficient fire escapes and exits have been provided, according to nn an nouncement issued by Director Breu nan, after a conference with City Counsel Jorome Congleton, Building Inspector Johu O'Bourke and Captain Alfred fSnshcr, attache of the Bureau of Fire Bihks and Qombustibles. Director Brennnn took his stand on the advice of City Coilnsel Congleton, who said that, although the armor) is stato property, the fact thnt it had been leaxetl to the Newark Sportsmen's Club for the fights made it a public building and, therefore, subject to all city ordinances nnd regulations.

Tho world in .general has known too murh bickering and lighting in the last six )cars for those Interested in yiport not to appreciate a final settlement made iu such generous spirit upon both sides. The Shadow JUST ten years ago last July Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson settled an ifinc which took tho heavyweight cham pionship from tho grip of the white man for the first time In ring history. ' Johnson lasted five jenrs before Willard left him blinklug into the rays of a Cuban sun. With Dempsey on top of the henp, the dark shadow drifts back again in the person of Harry Wills. Wills may have no fraction of a chance against Dempsey, but nfter his sudden disposal of Fulton ho looks to bo the next best on the list. Wills so far hasn't shown himself to be another Johnson by a number of kilometers. And Dempsey at twenty fivo is no broken-down Jeffries, verging upon forty.. So the shadow above wiuie supremacy tn the ring isn't lil'lin ni iilcuuuuiK ua n nua u uriuuv back when Johnson was 'granted an equnl chance to overthrow tho bulky California!.
