Summer Baseball May Win
With Big Nine Colleges
Special to The Telegraph
Chicago, Dec. 4.—lndications last
night were against action calculated
to do away with the summer baseball
rule at the meeting of the Big Nine
Faculty committee here to-day. Op
ponents of the rule, if was believed,
have not been able to muster enough
votes to overcome the sentiment in
favor of its retention.
The question of prohibition, under
rules against professionalism, of ath
letes taking summer jobs with golf
clubs may be brought up, though few
athletes of prominence, it is said,
would come under such a ban.
Conference representatives have ex
pressed themselves against adding
more institutions to the nine now com
posing the circuit, and it was not con
sidered likely that Nebraska, Notre
Dame or the Michigan Aggies would
be enrolled, though their applications
for membership were said to have been
received.
Dates and places for the annual in
door and outdoor meets probably will
be set, and the election of a president
to succeed Professor Pyre, of Wiscon
sin, and a secretary to succeed Profes
sor Moran, of Purdue, is on the pro
gram.
Tangle in Finances May
Force Cleveland Sale
Special to The Telegraph
Cleveland. Deo. 4.—lt was admitted
last night by George H. Steele, head
of the bankers' committee which is
handling the affairs of C. W. Homers,
owner of the American League Base
ball club here, and by Somers, that
Ban B. Johnson, president of the
league, is coming to Cleveland next
week from Chicago to confer with the
bankers and with Somers as to finan
cial problems which are confronting
the club and that the club may be sold.
"We have asked Johnston to come to
Cleveland to talk over the situation,"
Steele said, to-day. "If Johnson can
convince us that better things are in
•store for the club all well ai\d good,
but we must be shown. If it can be
demonstrated to us that it would be
to Somers' interest to sell the club, the
bankers' committee will give it due
consideration."
Somers voiced the same sentiments.
He said: "I would hate to part with
the club, but would do so if the right
kind of an offer were made."
First 'Cross-Country Run
Is Big Attraction Today
The first annual cross-country run
to-day attracted wide-spread atten
tion. Three schools p&rticipatel, Cen
tral and Tech high, and Harrisburg
Academy. Steelton did not enter. In
ability to whip a team in shape at this
time, was the reason advanced for the
absence of runners from the nearby
town. Harrisburg Academy's team
was a favorite to win.
The contest started at 2.30 o'clock at
the Linglestown road entrance to
Wildwood Park, through the park to
the breast of the dam. The course
was two and a quarter miles long.
The drawing for positions took place
before the contest.
Following practice yesterday after
noon the Academy runners wore pick
ed. The team includes Faber, Froe
llcli, Heisley, Stewert, MacDougall,
Kreider and Phillips.
