Farrell, president of the New York
State League, just back from the
Cincinnati meeting, does not believe
that the minor baseball clubs will be
put out of business this year. He

operations may be suspended and j
the territorial rights and rights to!
service of players will be protected
the same as if the season were fln-|

ready been spent by the organization
for athletic goods for soldiers still
in the United States.
that case, I will pick the one of that
pair who makes the best showing."
W. 11. Wellman, a New York pro
moter, has made a liberal offer to
Jess Willard for a battle with Fred
Fulton. Wellman offers a purse of
$75,000 for a 45-round battle, to be
held in Nevada on July 4.
Some months ago Tex Rlckard
was planning to stage a bout be
tween Willard and Fulton in Nevada,
but when Fulton made such a poor
showing against Carl Morris the pro
moter threw up his hands in disgust.
At that time Rickard had secured
permission from the authorities to
stage tho proposed mill at Salt Lake
City.

Outlook For Boxing in
New York State Is Poor
Albany, Jan. 16.—t is said that a
Democratic Assemblyman Is prepar
ing a bill to legalize boxing in the
state of New York, also that he has
received encouragement from both
branches of the Legislature. Poli
ticians at Albany seem to think,
however, that there is no chance
for this measure so long as Gover
nor Whitman is opposed to the ring
game. If a bill having the Gover
nor's indorsement should be made a
party measure by tho Republican
lawmakers, it probably would pass.
But tho efforts of a Tammany leg
islator to revive the sport, under the
circumstances, are not regarded
seriously.

HARRJSBURG TELEGRAPH!
ALEXANDER IS
DRAWN IN DRAFT
Ready to Answer Call; If He
Goes to Army Deal May
Re Cancelled
Philadelphia, Jan. 16.—Grover
Cleveland Alexander has been draft
ed toy government service, and the
deal between the Phillies and Chica
go Cubs, which stirred the baseball
world, may be declared off, causing
the Philadelphia club to lose the bulk
of the $ 50,000 reported as the pur
chase price for Alexander and Kill
efer. Atter being Informed that Al
exander had been called In the draft,
an official of the Chicago club said
that Kiilefer would not be affected
by Alexander's case, as his was a
separate snle.
The news that he had been draft
ed was given out by Alexander, who
has been spending the winter months
in Omaha, Neb. In admitting the au
thenticity of the report, Alexander
said he had received his card from
his home In St. Paul, Neb., and that
he had been placed in the first class,
division A. He also said he had wired
President Weeghman, of Chicago, to
find out how the drafting would af
fect his standing In the deal.
"Alex." Is Willing
In commenting upon the news,
Alexander said the drafting would
make little difference to him, as he
did not intend to play with Chicago
unless he received a share of the pur
chase money. When asked if he was
ready to go with the troops, Alexan
der replied, "I'm no slacker."
The articles of the sale of Alex
ander provided that the deal was
off if he was drafted inside ot thirty
days prior to the start of the regular
playing season, so that if he is un
able to report, he will once more be
come the property of the Phillies.
There is a chance, however, that, al
though he has been drafted, he may
not be called into active service for
some time, and in this case the sale
would stand, evon if Alexander was
compelled to quit the Cubs after the
season started.
President Weeghman. of the Cubs,
was not at his office in Chicago when
the news reached -there, but one of
the officials said that .some new
agreement might be reached by the
Philadelphia and Chicago clubs. The
refusal of Alexander to report to the
Cubs would not have affected the
sale, as no condition* providing for
this was included in tho agreement
between the two clubs, and it would
have been up to Weeghman to satisfy
Alexander regarding his being paid a
part of tho purchase price.
Elect Sherman Landers
to Lead Penn Track Team
Philadelphia, Jan. 16.—Penn es
tablished a precedent yesterday,
when Sherman Landers was elected
acting captain of the track team,
taking Howard Berry's place, who
at present is in training for a com
mission at Camp Dix.
Heretofore It has been the custom
to elect only those men .who have
run either one or two years on
the varsity team.
This year, however, with unusual
conditions and with anything but
settled times, the honor fell to Land
ers, who is a member of the sopho
more class, having won his numerals
in freshman track last year, when he
was acknowledged among the best
pole vaulters in collegiate ranks.
Landers is a product of the Ore
gon High school, of Oregon, 111.,
where he established a world's scho
lastic record in the pole vault, going
over the bar at the height of 12 feet
Byt Inches.
Moro than twenty candidates for
the track team reported to Coach
Robertson yesterday, and the out
look for a representative team ap
pears brighter and brighter.

that promises nothing better than

Comiskey Is Against Any
Change in Baseball Rules
Chicago, 111., Jan. 16.—"1 suppose
if they want to monkey with the]
baseball rules they will do so, but[
they won't have my support" is thei
comment of Charles A. Comiskey, I
master of the White Sox. He emit-1
ted this sentiment when informed |
that the National League in starting!
a movement which it hopes will i
spread to the American, doing away j
with the spitball, the use of slippery;
elm ana sueh.
"This yanking to pieces the rules j
of baseball is all right for those who I
tlo not have to develop ball players,"
continued "Commy," "that is why!
Ihey are so free with their sugges-j
tions. I believe that every time a
smart pitcher goes to work and de-!
velops some effective method of de
livery, or some curve that the others |
haven't got all tho rest of the lea
gue goes out to gang him, he is
heckled and inspected and there is!
agitation against him in the papers, i
nobody seems to be willing to givei
him credit for being smarter than
the rest of them, who haven't found;
out what he knows. Maybe the fans!
want more batting, but one of the
best ways of obtaining that isi
for the ball players to try to hit and;
quft trying not to strike out."
This is the opinion of the master |
of the Sox and what Charles A. I
Comiskey thinks the American Lea-'
gue usually does.
PHILS READY TO
TALK BUSINESS
Plans For Season Come Up
Next Week; Meeting at
Washington
Philadelphia, Jan. 16. —There will
be an important conference at New
York on Thursday, when President
Baker, of the Phillies, meets with
Manager Moran and Business Man
ager Shettsline to complete arrange
ments for the southern trip.
tl has been decided that the team
will leave about the middle of March,
but the exact date and tho number
of players to be taken to St. Peters
burg has not been fixed. These mat
ters will be settled at the conference
on Thursday. Those players who de
sire to leave from Philadelphia or
I New Yorl: will go by boat to Jack
sonville and then by rail to St.
Petersburg. It is quite possible that
| the Mackmen and the Phillies will
go on the same boat, as both teams
expect to leave about tho same
\ time.
Contracts Next Week
The club's contracts wil be sent
1 out next week. Tho blanks have just
• been received from the National
1 Commission. The new contract dif
-1 fers but slightly from the usual
I form. The clause that referred to
the Players' Fraternity and which
stated that because a player was a
member of the fraternity he would
in no way be discriminated against,
has been eliminated, as the Players'
Fraternity has ceased to exist.
The new contract also definitely
defines the playing season as being
that time included in the official i
schedule. Heretofore the playing
season was considered to consist of
about six months, without any defi
nite dates being fixed. Now it will
start with the first championship
game of the schedule and close with
the last scheduled game.
Conference at Washington, D. C.
Otherwise the contracts remain
the same. There is no special war
clause Inserted, as the old ten-day
clause is supposed to sufficiently
cover all emergencies that arise.
The New York club did not consider
It necessary to wait for the new con
tracts to be printed, but sent out
the old ones.
Nexa Monday there will be quite
a conference at Washington, D. C.,
when a delegation of the National
Leaguers will go there to get an of
ficial ruling on the collection of the
war tax. It is proposed that all clubs
of a league shall adopt the same
system, and therefore the club own
ers are anxious that no mistake shall
be made in deciding upon the best
plan to follow. Bill Shettslino will j
represent tho Philadelphia club iu
the party and Garry Herrmann an
nounces that he will also be on hand,
together with Secretary Heydler. of
the league: John Foster, of the New
York club; Charles Ebbets, of
Brooklyn, and several others.
