TOO MAnr SIGNALS FROM SIDE LINES Football Rules' Committee Claim Coaches Were the Real Violators Special to The Telegraph New York, Jan. 22.—Football rule makers while in a. way inclined to leave the present code intact, may de cide upon more stringent measures to prevent coaching and signalling from the side lines. During the past sea son substitutes and coaches were charged with unfairness along this line. An interesting contribution to the question of side line coaching has been made by the 1014 captains of prominent university and college elevents to the Yale News. That the practice is indulged by all coaches, despite rule 25, section 1 of the foot ball code, which expressly forbids it, is an open secret, and where game officials have been able to detect in fringements, warnings, or imposition of the stipulated tlfteen-yard penalty have followed. The, trouble is that, through signals and the use of sub stitutes, coaches are able to carry in structions and criticism to the players without being caught. Obviously this practice puts the coach Into the game With 8 veangeance, and thus violates the spirit of the intercollegiate agree ment to the effect that none but un dergraduates in good standing mav participate in games. Captain Talbot, of Yale, writes his opinion that the quarterback should run the eleven without assistance from the side lines. But, lie says, if the coach were kept away from the side lines entirely, j there would be no one to watch thei condition of the men. Thus he favors I retention of the coaches on the side lines, but believes that everything should be done (o stop coaching in the course of a game. The Harvard cap-i tain is not represented in the sympos-i lum of opinions, for reasons, no doubt, which may be regarded ns obvious. Harold Ballin, Princeton's leader, is] not In favor of removing coaches from I the side lines, and gives his reasons, I frankly, as follows: "I do not favor removal of coaches, because substitutes can receive in structions in this way that, they can not get as well in any other, the Idea being that the coaches go over the game with them as it is played, point ing out mistakes as they are made. Moreover, communications between ihe coaches and players are not fre quent enough to be usually of vital importance, as it means taking one regular out of the game on each oc casion." Senators Won Game From the Tigers; Pirates Also Victors The Senators won the P. R. R. Y. M. O. A. basketball game last night, defeating the Tigers, score 20 to 17 The Pirates won from the Phillies score 30 to 24. 1 -N HEADQUARTERS FOR SHIRTS SIDES & SIDES V———_______ Thinking of Quality These days, most men when they think ol a smoke, think of King Oscar 5c Cigars It's the way quality always affects the mind.

THURSDAY EVENING, Wilmington Men Want Another Flag Special to The Telegraph Wilmington, Del., Jan. 22.—0n their return from the Tri-State meeting from Philadelphia both Tom Brown and Peter Cassidy announced their in tention to get Into the game stronger than ever and will try hard for an other pennant. With the exception of Ritter who signed with the New York Giants, and Tony Marhefka, who goes to New London, the team will remain intact. However, it is the intention to get busy in a search for promising youngsters. Jimmy Jackson, although sought by at least two other leagues, provided he did not sign again with the Chicks, said he would be back and that he had in view as a successor to Marhefka a Philadelphia lad named Pearce, who was sent to Dayton last year by Cin cinnati upon the recommendation of Lave Cross. Tony mingled with the crowd in the hotel corridor and, al though he regretted that he-had to quit while being the swiftest short garden man in the league, he was glad that the chance had come for him to show his speed in some other league. Eddie Zimmerman Signs With Newark York, Pa., Jan. 22.—Eddie Zimmer man, who is spending the winter at his home here, does not want to be classed with the "Vets."

Scout Larry Sutton, of the Newark team, was in the city yesterday, and after a long conference with Zimmer man, the latter signed the contract, which was for one year, and carried a substantial increase in salary over last season.

The consideration was not announced, hut a statement was made that the new owner would not be required to as sume the debts of the old association. Manager Heckert is not ready to make public the names of the men who are identified with him in the York club. It is known that J. J. Gerry will continue as president of the club. A meeting for the election of officers of the new organization will be held on Monday of next week, at \vhich time plans for the coming season will be discussed. Heckert will again manage the club and will start work within the next few weeks on lining his team up for the opening game May 6. Catcher Porte, who was with the York club during the season of 1912, had an in terview with Heckert in Philadelphia on Tuesday, but no agreement was made to take the former player back In the fold. A number of letters from young players who want to be given a chance have been received by Man ager Heckert during the past week, but nothing will be done until every thing regarding the club sale is set tled. In all probability the same sys tem will be carried out this year as last, all recruits desiring try-outs be ing permitted to come here at their j own expense. Real Baseball War Said to Be Inevitable Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Jan. 22.—A baseball I war that bids fair to equal that of I 1901, when the American League I broke its way into the ranks of or j ganized baseball, seems to be inevit able with the anouncement made yes terday by President Baker, of the Phillies, that Catcher Billy Killifer had signed to play with the Dooin clan this season, although he has already signed to play with the Chicago team of the Federal League. It is more than likely that the courts will be called upon to deter mine the issues between the baseball leagues, and that the fight will revolve around the famous "reserve clause" which figures so prominently in the Lajoie case, tho validity of which was sustained by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. RESERVE CLAUSE RIGHT, KAYS BAN JOHNSON Chicago, 111., Jan. 22. President Johnson,2 of the American League, was asked for his opinion on the ac tion taken by the Philadelphia club. "President Baker's action probably is based on the Lajoie decision. The reserve clause will stand in court, ac cording to John G. Johnson, the at torney who represented the National League and won the case when Lajoie , was enjoined from jumping from the Philadelphia National to the Phila delphia American club. This opinion may have influenced Baker." Johnson added something about a change in the reserve clause as em bodied in the present contracts. Just what, change had been made he re fused to say. He, like other big men in organized ball, seems to believe that the tight will be made on the reserve feature, contrary to hints given by the Federals that they will concentrate their attack on the ten-day clause.
