CENTRAL HIGH TO MEET UNKNOWN FOE IN WILKES-BARRE—FIRST COLLEGE GAME TECH HIGH TEAM TO PLAY READING Friday Night's Bill Includes Second Game and Wrestling j Match; Official Line-up Coach McConnell pitted his Tech j basketball five against the Academy j quintet yesterday afternoon in prep-' aration for the game with the Read- ; ing High team in the Tech gym nasium to-morrow evening. With Captain Harris back in the game, followers of the Maroon look 1 for the local team to give the visitors their second defeat of the season. The visiting team boasts of the best of fensive and defensive play in the : league, and with Wendler and Snyder ; at center and forward the fastest , gnnie of the season should result. 111 addition to the league contest, the reserves will meet the Market ; Street A. A. In the preliminary game, i Hempt, a Sophomore, will be pitted 011 the mat against another middle- ! weight of the same class. The line 1 up follows: Tech. Heading. Harris, f. Snyder, f.

International in Session; , One Franchise Up For Sale Special to tne Telegraph I New York, Feb. 10.—Little of im portance was accomplished at the meeting of the International League owners at the McAlpin Hotel to-day. I The circuit still is doubtful with only ; seven clubs really in line ready to i ! start the season. Just where the l ' Jersey City Club will play is not as-I certaincd yet. .The league controls j. the franchise and has not leased it' .vet, although two offers are said to j lie in from persons who want to take 1 over the Harrison plant of the Fed- j. eral League and play there next sea- ! son. Tt was said that 11. Clay Smith, of | Chicago, who has been closely allied with the American League, is to buy ! the Jersey City franchise, place the <iub in Newark and elect "Jim" Price, i a local newspaperman, president of! the outfit. No salary limit was agreed upon by the delegates, but it was decided that| the player limit should be raised from 1 sixteen to seventeen. The new Board of Directors was I elected as follows: J. J. McCaftey, of Toronto: S. E. Liclitenstein, of Mont real; C. T. Cliapin, of Rochester; Alvin , M. Smith of Richmond, and W. H. Draper of Providence. Nationals Make Tener a Czar Like Johnson The oratorical proclivities of John j 1 Kinley Tener, president of the Na- j! 1 tional League won him a real sceptre ! ; at the annual schedule meeting of the , club presidents of his circuit at the ' Waldorf-Astoria yesterday afternoon. . With such effusion and diplomacy did the former Governor of Pennsylvania ' initiate Percy D. liaughton _ and Charles Weeghman, the new club presidents, into the mystic order that their case hardened confederates were thrown into a state of mental aberra- ' tion. Before they came out of the trance some rash soul' suggested that their executive should be vested with all the autocratic powers enjoyed by j Ban B. Johnson of the rival league, j and the motion was passed unani- J mously. John K. Tener will be the real big ! mogul of the National League from this moment. At one fell swoop the j board of directors the sword of Damocles that always had hung over his head was copper riveted to a 1 logging chain. A constitutional j amendment provides that henceforth i in the case of protested games the \ clubs shall have no right to appeal to the board of directors from the presi-• dent's finding. The National League's president's word, in short, will be < law. Y. M. H. A. Tossers Win From Hummelstown Five The Y. M. H.

Inquiries have been made as to what is going to happen with the Central Pennsylvania League. Offi cials of that organization are silent when asked if there will be baseball this summer. It is said that New Cumberland and Steelton are the only towns offering any inducements for a team. Hlghspire and Middletown, it is said, are dead to professional base ball.
