Formerly Federal League Club Official, Declares Play ers Lose Enthusiasm and Fail to Show Form New York, Jan. 27.—John Montgom ery Ward, the former New York short stop and united recently with the Fed eral League, stated yesterday that the one feature of modern baseball which was working more injury than any oth er feature was the long-term contract, which, he asserted, was responsible for the mediocre playing of many stars last season, and has also established an at mosphere of indifference among the players who have been engaged l'or two or three seasons. "Baseball," says Mr. Ward, "is a very distinct calling; it is entirely dif ferent. than anything else. Essentially, it is play for the participants, and for a player to do has best he must have inspiration. It is inspiration and un- j bounded enthusiasm which enable the j player to make some phenomenal play. l If it were not for inspiration, these! star players would never become keyed up to unusual performances. "Therefore, when a player gets a! long-term contract, say for three years, | as many men received in the big league I last season, he loses that enthusiasm which has kept him up to playing his best. I do not mean to say that they quit, but, with the future insure! and with no incentive to work up their en thusiam, the long-term players have ta ken things easily and have not meas ured up to the standard they are ca pable otf.'' Mr. Ward is very much interested in the Federal League suit and discussed the question at some length. He point ed out that the hearing last week be fore Judge Landis in Chicago was sim ply the preliminary sTrirmish in the proceedings. Even if Judge Landis de cides in favor of the Federal league, that cannot be construed as a victory for the independents, because the tem porary injunction, if granted, will ex tend for only 20 days, when the suit, j itself will be heard. In the event of Judge Landis de ciding that his court has no jurisllic,- tion in the matter, the ease will prob ably be thrown out. It is not likely that the Federal League will appeal, ■because this would put the case over into the baseball season, and it is not! the purpose of Federal League to carry I the legal complications to the point j where they will in any way interfere | with the playung season. Baseball men j have come to realize that the public j does not take very kindly to the pro- j longed legal and political features of i baseball. What they want is the game | itself, and the less the public knows of the inside workings of the organizations the better they like it. FOOTBALL SOLON'S TO MEET Game Is Satisfactory and Rules Not Likely to Be Changed Boston, Jan. 2 7.—The announcement was mftde here yesterday that the an nual meeting of the Intercollegiate Football Rules Committee will be held ! February 5 and G, at the Hotel Bilt more, in New York. Chairmau E. K. Hall, of I>artmouth, settled the date after hearing from the other 13 mem bers of the board, and it is believed that there will be a full attendance. Mr. Hall anticipates very few changes in the rules, these rather in the word ing than in the letter or spirit. The game proved very satisfactory last fall, and the committee as a whole believes it is best to make no changes of any importance. The 'personnel of the Rules Committee is the same as it was last year, the delegates from the National Collegiate Association having been retained in a body. The usual report of the central board will be heard as will the report of the new committee made tip of of ficials who are in charge of the more important games. TO INVADE TRENTON Surplus Fed Players to Be Placed in Minor Leagues Chicago, Jan. 27.—Surplus ball play ers of the Federal League will be taken care of in two or thuee minor leagues, it was announced yesterday by Presi dent Gilmore.

S.—Scheme Origi nated In Belgium Washington, D C., Jan. 27. —A mil lion a quarter dollars is on de posit in school savings banks in the United States, according to a bulletin issued by the Bureau of Kdncation. Ihis money is distributed anion™ 217- 000 pupils, w| lo thereby learn "lessons ot thrift for use in later life. Belgium lias the honor of originating the school savings bank system, accord ing to the bulletin. Prof. Laurent, of Ghent, Belgium, in 1873 began the »ork among school children "for amelioration of poverty and the im provement of individual and national life." His woik soon attracted the at tontion ot the leaders of education in other countries. A native of Belgiem, .lohn Henry Thiry, put the school savings banks on a permanent footing in the United States. Mr. Tliiry established banks In Long Island City, N. Y., and the New ork schools under Superintendent Maxwell, have been among the most successful advocates of the system. Mr. Thiry's etlorts in behalf of school savings banks have been continued since his death, in 1911, by Mrs. Sara Louisa Oberholtzer, of Philadelphia, who has aided in the compilation of the bureau's bulletin on the subject. Several methods in vogue for col lecting and banking the savings of the children are described. Usually the co operation of a well-established savings bank in the school community is first secured. Forms and blanks are provid ed by . the banks. When the amount reaches $1 the child is given a bank book and becomes, through the school, a regular patron of the bank. When the deposit reaches $3 or $5 (as the banks elect) it draws interest at 3 or more per cent. Among the cities where the school savings banks have done notable work are Pittsburgh, Pa., where over $(>()(),- 000 has been deposited since the intro duction of the system. Chester, Pa., has now on deposit over $44,000. To ledo, Ohio, established the system in 1911, and has deposited since then over $252,000, with $70,000 reported PS still on deposit. Atlantic City, N. ,1.. has on deposit over $33,000. Pu pils in Grand Rapids, Mich., deposted $75,000 in the several years since es tablishing the bank and have drawn out in that time only SIO,OOO. The bulletin suggests that there can be a stimulating relation between the U. S. postal savings svstem and the school savings banks. The postal sav ings banks receive deposits from all over 10 years of age. "Children who have spent theii pennies and nickels in candy shops and moving picture shows until they are 10 years old,'' declares the bulletin, "are not likely to hold their cards until they accumu late the sl, to be exchanged for a cer tificate of deposit. School savings banks are needed to prepare young peo ple to profit by the postal savings banks.'' State Prosecutes Farmer Xorristown, Pa.. .lan. 27.
