Hughie Likes Young Ehmke;
Expects Record Season
Detroit, Mich., Dee. 13.—Hugh Jen
nings has high hopes for the 19X7 sea
son and looks for the Tigers to light it
all the way to a pennant. Detroit is
hungry for the flag and Jennings wants
to drive his men to the front. Two
newcomers are expected to add
strength to the club, Third Sacker
•Tones and Pitcher Couch, from the
Coast.
But the recruit hurler that looks
best to both Jennings and President
Navin is Howard Ehmke, purchased
from the Syracuse club. New York
State League. Ehmke showed his
worth with the Tigers in the crucial
series against the Red Sox at the close
lof the season. He is expected to take
I his regular turn next season.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
ONLY ONE TRADE
FOR NATIONALS
Abolish Disability List at An
nual Meeting; No Increase
For Player Limit
New York, Dec. 13. Trades were
few at yesterday's meeting of Na
tional League magnates. The only
certain transaction was the choice of
Fred Mitchell to lead the Cubs.
Mitchell admitted that the finger of
rumor was right when it pointed to
him ns the next Cub tactician. lie
said that the thing was all settled ex
cept the agreement between the Bos
ton and Chicago clubs, by which his
services were to be transferred half
way across the United States map. The
weary magnates cast aside care and
united in a banquet to President Eb
bets, of the Brooklyn club last nignt.
The magnates convened at 3 and
remained closeted until after 6 o'clock.
Previous to the league meeting the
board of directors held sway.
Committee reports and the hearing
of two delegations consumed the bulk
of the session. The main bits of legls
, lation accomplished were the abolition
| of the "disability list" and the increase
| of the player limit from 21 to 22, to
gether with a lengthening of the early
season try-out period during which
the clubs select their regular players
for the season. Last Spring's bad
weather, making the early weeks al
most useless for try-out purposes,
brought about the change.
Mi:st Reduce Limit
Managers next season will have un
til May 15, instead of May 1, to re
duce their list to the statutory 22. Pre
vious to that date, and after August
31, each club may carry as many as
35 players.
The New York Club wanted the
limit raised from 21 to 25. but when
it came to a vote, the Chicago club's
ballot was the only one that sided
with the Giants' proposition. A two
thirds vote was necessary for adoption
the Brooklyn club's motion for
22, following immediately, went
through unanimously.
Abuses of the disability list last sea
son especially by the Boston club
caused its death. At times last sea
son, it was asserted, there were as
many as 28 players on the Boston
bench in midsummer, seven of them
"disabled" so that they could only
take fielding practice, batting practice
and make noises derogatory to the
umpires and opposing players.
The board of directors at its meet
ing awarded the pennant to Brook
lyn. They mentioned nothing about
the suggested scoring of an "assist"
to the Giants. In fact, the "McGraw
incident" was talked about only in
the corridors. No magnate would ad
mit that he even thought of it while
the meeting was in progress.
President Tener's report advised
changes in the world's series rules, es
pecially that some provision should be
made for setting aside some portion
of the receipts for players of clubs not
participating in the series.

TAKE UP TKNKR PLAN'S
New York, Dec. 13.—When the mag
nates of the National League entered
the second day of their annual de
liberations here to-day one of the
topics was the change in the world's
series rules advocated by President
Tenor in his annual report. Mr. Tener
favors setting aside a part of the play
ers' percentage for distribution among
the players of other clubs not partici
pating in the series. These shares are
to be apportioned, according to the
suggestion, on the relative standing of
the clubs in their respective pennant
races. Among other propositions to
be considered is a measure which
would prevent any club selling or trad
ing a player after August 1 unless
i every club in the league had granted
, waivers on him. It is expected that
it will be adopted as a league rule.
CLEGO IS STILL CHAMPION
Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 13.—William
H. Clegg, holder of ttie Harrisburg
Sportsmen's Cup, emblematic of the
livebird championship of Pennsylvania
yesterday successfully defended his
title in a challenge match with Charles
Eilber over the Fort Side Inn Gun
Club traps. The final score was:
Clegg, 24; Eilber, 23.
Clegg gave a wonderful exhibition
of marksmanship with the double
barreled scatter shotgun. He grassed
24 straight, missing a straight score
by losing his last bird.
Eilbert's failure to latfd his birds in
the seventh and twentieth shots prov
ed his undoing.
I Manager Chic Hartman
| Builds Hopes on Barnhardt
Binghamton, N. Y., Dec. 13. —lf
"Barney" Barnhardt does not prove to
be one of the State League twirling
sensations of 1917, Manager Chic
Hartman will be disappointed. Chic
is counting on Barnhardt to repeat his
winning record of early in 1916 and to
continue his victorious march through
the entire period of play. The long,
lean, angular Pennsylvania boy was
nothing less than a Bruin for John C.
Calhoun and really kept the Bins team
out in front with plenty to spare for
many weeks. Toward the close of the
season's milling the "side-arm" Ilippist
became as careless as other Bings, but
his work was always clean-cut . and
uniformly good. Hartman has several
surprises for fandom. He is out to
show results from the start, even
though several untried ones are on
the roster.
Murpl"-, Konnick, Irving and Joe
Pepe are E. and J. employes and ex
pect to have a good winter. Pepe
should bfe the State League's most ac
complished shortstopper next season,
while Murphy, Konnick and Irving are
always good and ready to get into the
going at short notice. Konnick ex
pects to be first string catcher for
Mike O'Neill's Syracuse team next sea
son. John C. Calhoun has said nary a
word about his 1917 Barons.

There are many rea
sons advanced for the
shortage of coal. The
most important thing of
all to know is that there
is enough coal to fill
present orders.
The future supply is a
question.
As Winter is upon us
surely no wise home
keeper is going to delay
much longer the purchase of
fuel for the weeks and weeks
of cold weather ahead of us.
Our advice is—buy all the
coal you need at once—don't
delay longer.

The coming of the Yale basketball
five to Harrisburg promises a rare at

Chestnut Street Auditorium. Members
of the Yale alumni in Harrisburg are

If Georges Carpentier conies to this
country for a series of boxing matches,
a furlough of four months will be
necessary. In order to make his trip
profitable more than one engagement
is necessary. Miss Anne Morgan, Miss
Elsie DeWolfe and Ambassador Jusse
rand are back of the efforts to get the
furlough.
Manager William R. Winn, of the
Methodist Club, has a hard schedule
this season. The dates he gives to the
public to-day show that he will meet
the best teams in the state. A ma
jority of victories will bring to the
local five championship honors.
Ban Johnson does not like the
