NEWS OF THE SPORTING WORLD
LONG TERM CONTRACTS
BIG BLOW TO BASEBALL
John M. Ward. 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. One will be organized, it
is planned, at a meeting in New Haven
next Saturday, which Gilmore will at
tend, and the other is an organization
already operating under organized hall.
The name of the latter Gilmore would
not, give, but said it had proposed com
ing under jurisdiction of the Federals.
No competition for the International
league is likely, according to the plans
for the make-up of the new circuit. It
will include Providence, Hartford, New
Haven and possibly Trenton, N. J.,
among its eight cities.

above-named party.

SCHOOL SAVINGS BANKS
Million and a Quarter Dollars Now on
Deposit in U. 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.''
