' SUPPORT THEM CLUB
i President Rogers Resigns When Home
-1 Run Baker Is Not Barred
From Baseball
I Philadelphia, May 13.—The Inter
> state Association of Baseball Leagues,
' at a special meeting last night, refused
' to bar J. Franklin Baker, the home
run King, who is under a three years'
contract with the Athletics, from play
ing professional baseball with the Up
land Club, of the Delaware County
League. Eight leagues which compose
' the organization voted on a motion of
F. M. Hackney, president of the Phila
delphia Suburban League, that Baker
• be barred, the final vote being nine
■ against the motion and seven in favor
of it. Immediately following this ac
tion Assistant District Attorney Joseph
P. Rogers, president of the association,
i tendered his resignation, stating that
. he refused to be associated with an or
ganization which harbored contract
'jumpers, deserters or quitters.''
The action was taken after a three
hours' session spent in going over the
( case. ,1. Borton Weeks, president of the
i Delaware County League, stated that
Connie Mack had said that Baker could
plav bail with a local clu>b providing it
was not in Philadelphia, and that under
, this agreement Baker is not a contract
jumper.
NO GAME FOR PHILLIES
Managers With Crippled Teams Wel
come the Day of Rest
Philadelphia. May 13. Another dou
ble-header was added to the Phillies'
list yesterday, when the second game
of the series with Pittsburgh, was
postponed on account of rain. This
makes four double-headers the Phillies
will have to play later in the
tw 0 here, one in Boston and the other
in Brooklyn. The Braves gained on
the Phillies by beating St. Louis, but
the Cubs lost to Brooklyn and dropped
back a few points.
The day's rest did not cause much
disa.:' ointment in the ranks of the two
teams. Manager Moran has several
cripples on the hospital list, and a day 's
re<! will help tile team. "Die Pittsburgh
pitchers are not going any too well, so
t. at Manager Clarke was satisfied when
I tiie game was called off.
