Tener Hands Out Another Timely Interview Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Jan. IG. Governor John K. Tener canie to town yester day and found occasion to say a few more nice things about the baseball outlook. The Governor appeared entirely pleased with prospects anil predicted a complete victory for organized base ball in the war being waged by the Federal League against the major leagues. The change in the aspect of affairs during the . past few days has caused the magnates of the two big leagues considerable satisfaction. Governor Tener issued a statement following his meeting with the Phil lies' president which shows how he feels over the situation at this time. He says in his statement: "There is nothing in the present sit uation to cause the least apprehension to organized baseball. The affairs of the National League are working as smoothly as could be desired under any circumstances. All the club presi dents are signing their players as fast as their contracts are received and returned. By reason of some changes in the form of contract, made neces sary by the concessions granted the Players' Fraternity at the annual meeting of the national commission in Cincinnati, the players did not receive their contracts as early as usual. From the daily reports of which I am in receipt the players are pleased over the new changes and in most cases have signed and returned their con tracts promptly. "From present indications, except where trades have been made or may be consummated before the season opens, every club in the National League will take the field with vir tually the same personnel as last year/' Two Good Contests, Hari/sburg vs. York, Royals Meet Hassett A basketball dotibleheader of unusual interest is promised for to-morrow night when Harrlsburg will line up against the York all-college team, and Hassett five wHI meet the John K. Royal team. The latter game will fig ure in the series for city champion ship honors. Between Harrisburg and York honors are even and the game to-morrow night promises plenty excitement and star work. Due to the fact that games this season are more evenly divided as to victories increased interest has been manifested by local enthusiasts. With the introduction of the John K. Royal five came another team of youngsters to look after, and Hassett must put up a. brilliant game if they hope to win. After bot hgames ahe ended there will be the usual dance program.
