OWNERS MOVE TO NEW YORK FOR GATHERING Big Leaguers Get Ready for Their Session—Rumors Follow Minor Convention. DRAFT STILL UNSETTLED BUFFALO, Dec. 9.—Nothing but rumor* remained today or me .minor league meeting. Most of the magnates, the managers and the players had started their movement on New York for the major league meetings next week. Rumors of surprise changes were still being fanned around. BUI Killefer, manager of the Chicago Cubs, has resigned and William Veeck, president of the team, is out, according to the latest story. Killefer and Veeck are said to have been held responsible for the failure of the Cubs to get Heinie Groh. Before leaving for New York. Garry Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati Reds, denied that Eddie Roush had been or would be sold to the Xew Y'ork Giants. Ronsh probably will not be In baseball next year. He has demanded anew three-year contract calling for an enormous sum and the Cincinnati Club does not want to pay it. Af;?r a near all night session on the cases of a hundred disputed players, the National board of arbitration went back Into session this morning. Their business may not be completed before the end of the week. Jack Hendricks, man- ' ager of the Indianapolis club; Jack Dunn, j manager of the Baltimore club, and many other pilots who were depending on the: services of “reserve Jumpers” next sea- ] son. had a surprise as well as all the | delegates today, when it was learned that j the resolution restoring reserve jumpers to good standing does not apply if the j “lumpers” played against ineligible j players. Hardly more than a few of the hundred players will be able to get back Into baseball through this new interpretation of the resolution. Frank Schulte, former Cnb star outfielder, signed a contract to play next season with the Seattle club. He was a free agent and arranged the deal himself. ' Before leaving John McGraw. manager of the New Y'ork Giants, said he was j through and had no more trades in sight. He said the world champions were all ready for the spring training camp. Other major league managers said there was nothing left after McGraw had finished spending money and they were also j ready to start another pennant race. Predictions of a prosperous season in 1922 and a spirit of optimism despite the high price of playing material and its scarcity, were made freely by baseball men as the annual convention of the National Association came to a close. Just what will eventually come of the draft 'problem as it stands today between the majors and Class AA leagues Is a question. The committee appointed by the minor leagues to meet with the majors in New York may take up thq, question and It has been said by some who claim to be well informed that the I Class AA leagues are willing to return to the old system of drafting providing certain conditions are carried out. YVhat the Class AA magnates want is a fixed price of $7,500 for players drafted from them. Some of the big leaguers think this figure is all out of proportion, but in the face of "hundred thousand dollar’’ player deals, most anything is reasonable, according to the double-A club owners. By a resolution la’e yesrerday the minors reduced the National board of arbitration from ten to seven members. The new board will consist of William H. McCarthy, Pacific Const League; .T. D. Martin, Southern Association; Dan O'Neill, Eastern League; John Toole, International League: A. P. Corish, South .Atlantic League; W. C. Branham. Piedmont League, and J. B. Jamieson, Blue Ridge League. A committee consisting of John H. FarraP. secretary of the National Association; Toole of the International League; McCarthy of the Pacific Coast, and Thomas J. Hickey of the American Association, was appointed to meet with representatives of major leagues in New York next week to confer on questions of mutual interests. The 1922 meeting of the association will be held In Louisville. Secretary John H. Farrell, who has served the association for twenty-one years, was ordered to take a thlrty-dav vacation and the ftrder got a big hand from the convention. Manager Wade Killefer of the Los Angeles Club, sold the following players, he announced today: Player Andrews, to Beaumont; Player Anheiser to Oklahoma City: Pitcher Brown to Kansas City, and Catcher Stanage to Sacramento. Bob Tarleton. manager of the Galveston Club, purchased Outfielder Duncan from St. Paul: Third Baseman Moore from Little Rock; Pitcher Graham from Louisville and Outfielder O'Brien from Fort Worth. Tarleton also traded Outfielders McDonald and Alien and Catcher O'Brien to Portsmouth, Va.. for Outfielder Mathag and sold Outfielder .Toe Doran to the Des Moines Club of the Western League. Tom Hayden, president of the Japlln Club, bought Third Baseman Jenkins from Cedar Rapids. Jack Holland of Oklahoma City, made offers to both Del Galnor and Ow-nle Bush to manage his club next season. Holland also purchased Outfielder Middleton from Seattle. Rawlings Makes New National League Record, Starting 42 Double Plays Digging into the dope by that persistent and accurate delver, Ernest J. Lanigan, discloses the fact that after all, one new record was made In the National League the past year. It was accomplished by Johnny Rawlings of the world's.champion Giants, who set a mark heretofore unequaled by National League second basemen in the matter of starting double plays, with forty-two to his credit, beating the mark of Larry Doyle, made in 190S, by seven. Another record might have been made in the National this year, perhaps, had Heinle Grah not have been stubborn and refused to report until late. That necessitated the work at third base for the Reds being divided. Groh and Sammy Bohne between them starred thirty-four double plays. The record for doubles inaugurated at third in the National was twenty-seven, set by the same Groh six years ago. In the past season Groh started nineteen and Bohne fifteen. Shortstops lead the National In starting double plays. David Bancroft, like Rawlings Giant and former Quaker, ranked first among the National Leaguers in Inaugurating plays that retired two men at a clip, being credited with fiftytwo—six less than Rabbit Maranvllle’s top figure of 1914. John Lavan of the Cardinals started forty-seven double plays and Charley Hollocher of the Cubs forty-two, Horace Ford of the Braves made th first move In forty. The Rabbit had to be contented with thirty-five. Joy-Glooms Clash With Carmel Kelts Saturday The Carmel Kelts basket-ball team, which has won all nine of the games played this season, trill tackle the JoyGloom quintet at Broad Ripple tomorrow evening In the Ripple high school gym. The game will start at 8:15, with a curtain-raiser at 7:15.

The locrl quintette is in only fair shape for the contest several of the men hgvlng minor injuries.

NEWS OF THE DAY IN

Fast Wrestlijig Bout Taken by Reynolds Over Kansas Rival Local Welter Wins in Two Falls After Fierce Go — Other Contests. Jack Reynolds met a worthy foe in A1 Mantel! in the wrestling show held last night at the Broadway Theater, but was too good for his opponent and won two falls after some hard wrestling. The first fall came after a battle of forty-six minutes and was tho result of the ''flying mare” hold. The second fall came In about seven minutes and Reynolds got a chance to use his favorite hold, the leg split. Man- , tell had fought off the leg split In all previous attempts of Reynolds, but final- j lv was caught in the local wrestler's! famous lock and lost the decisive fall and i the match. The Kansan seemed to have, been coached well In defense of the leg split and put up a sensational match, but the local welter title claimant was enough better to have the edge. The rest of the show was good and the crowd enjoyed the two other bouts.' Everybody was glad to see Jimmy Anderson go down before Young Londas, the Michigan welterweight. Londas took the first fall in twenty-one minutes and the second in seven minutes. A toe hold was the Greek’s best bet and Anderson could not seem to get away from it. “Shortv” Burch. In a pair of bright green tights, tried a safety first game against Sam Davis in the preliminary go. “Shorty” flattened out with both forearms under his body and seemed determined to maintain that position indefinitely. but Davis finally got him sewed up ; with a half Ne’.soir and crotch hold in 17 minutes, then repeating for another fall In one minute. The boys got a toehold on each other at the same time frequentlv to the amusement of the crowd.' bnt seemed to mutually agree to let go when it began to hurt. “Shorty” protested that he was not “down” in the second fall, and in a regular Washington Park speech pointed out to the fans which shoulder was not on the mat. And the fans greeted his speech in regular Washington Park style. ••Bill” Egner refereed in a capable manner and during an intermission illustrated some "painful” holds on a subject. Young Olson announced he accepts Billy Schober’s challenge and will post a side bet. It was announced by the management that the showing of the war films at the Broadway next week will not Interfere j with the weekly wrestling matches, as the house is engaged for Thursdays for the remainder of the winter. It was announced that Adrian Ross, Notre Dame wrestling instructor, will be Reynolds’ opponent next week. FOWLING • mmm* TONIGHT’S SfHEDI'LB. Two-Man —7.15. Individuals—B:6s. Alley. Alley. 9—J.

RING GOSSIP

SkTJXM

LIVELY BOUTS AT FORT SHOW Boxing fans who made the Journey to Ft. Benjamin Harrison Thursdiy night were well repaid for their trip, for four lively bouts were staged and the enthusiasm was kept at high pitch throughout the fisticuff program. Here Clark refereed and he kept the boxers hustling. Mayor Jewett was at the ringside and he seemed to enjoy the entertainment from start to finish. The bouts were staged in a well set-up ring at the Enlisted Men's Club and the Army officers and buck privates had a large evening of fun. Fans from the city were on hand early and by the time the opening scrap went on the place was ’well filled. A captain in charge of events told Referee Clark to announce .that any boxer showing signs of stalliug would not get even a thin dime and as result the ring was alive with action in every encounter. In the main go Jimmy Dalton outpointed Tommy McDuff over thfy ten-round route. Dalton did most of the leading and his advantage in weight gave him an edge. Jimmy displayed plenty of ambition and won by a safe margin, though several times' M.cDuff stepped out and made his blows sting. McDuff fought a good fight even though outpointed and he is sure to be heard from in his class. lu the Tony Dalton-Rattling Casey bout Casey was sent to the showers in the fifth round. Casey started out at a whirlwind pace, but soon tired and Dalton soon got to him for the decisive blows. Frankie Nelson had it all over the Venizuela Kid and was awarded the decision in the fourth round. The “Hot Tamale” lad got cracked on the nose tn the first round and Nelson used It as a target so constantly that Venizuela got tired of standing the gaff. Nelson displayed real cleverness, though he seemed to hold..back his right too much. In the first preliminary Young Saylors won a hair-line decision over Freddie Lewis in four rounds. These boys put up a terrific encounter, whirl-wind and slambang. Both delivered and took punches and they certainly were wabbly at the finish. It was a battle from the start and the lads were swinging as best they could when the end came. ANDERSON BOUTS MONDAY. ANDERSON, Ind., Dec. 9—Jack Leslie and l’iukle Lewis, two colored heavyweights, are headliners on the boxing card being put on by the American Lesion of this city next Monday night at he Grand Opera House.

DENVER, Dec. 9.—Harry Wills, New Orleans, won u twelve-round decision over Bill Tate of Chicago, hero last night. New Athletic Commission Would Lower Sport Prices CHICAGO, Dec. 9.—Lower prices for baseball and football games and war on the scalpers were two moves on which the athletic commission appointed by Mayor Thompson took a decided stand at their first meeting Thursday. Alderman Gerrnak, father of the ordinance creating I he commission and one of its members, said the State Legislature had given the commission wide power and that It would extend Its control over I professional baseball football, wrestling and boxing and would supervise billiard halls. “I believe pne of the first things the’ commission should do 1* to reduce admission prices to baseball and football games.” Alderman Gerrnak said. “Base hall prices last year were 55 cents to $1.65 and there seemed to be no limit on football prices, if organized baseball can pay Judge Landis $45,000 a year, It can afford to reduce admission prices.” Plans to collect 3 per cent of gross re- ' celpts instead of issuing licenses would open the books of organizations to the commission und put an end to scaiping, be said.

FULLERTON BOOSTS THREE N. D. MEN AND MILSTEAD OF WABASH

CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind., Dec. 9. Hugh Fullerton, famous sport critic, writing in the New Y'ork Times, comes out with an Immense boost for Hoosier football players. In addition to placing three Notre Dame men on his choice for All-American talent he tells of the wonderful prowess of Allen Mllstead, Wabash College's giant tackle, Fullerton confines his All-American selection to teams he saw in action and among the games he witnessed wore the WabashArmy game, Notre Dame-Army and Notre Dauie-Rutgers. The work of the Hoosier players he saw in those contests led him to name E. Anderson, Klley and Custner of Notre Dame. He also witnessed the Chleago-Princeton game and chose McGuire, Chicago, tackle, as another Western star worthy of AllAmerican honors. In writing of Mllstead, the Wabash super man, Fullerton paid a glowing Franklin Defeats Em-Roes, 30 to 26, in Overtime Game After playing along easy and in a gentle manner for about three-quarters of the game last night, at tho Y. M. C. A., the Franklin College team suddenly developed all the traits of the wild-cat and the result was a victory over the local Em-Roes, In an overtime game, 30 to 28. At about the middle of the second half the Em-Roes had a lead of 12 points over the college team and it looked as though there was not a chance for Coach Nelp's men. They were not together and the slow, clever, easy game of the Em-Roes seemed to have them In a stupor. But right there something happened. Kline and Babb were taken out of the game by the Em-Roes to give Bassett mid McClure a chance and suddenly the tables were turned and the locals were fighting desperately to retain their advantage. Records dropped in a couple of baskets and with renewed hope the Baptists came back strong. Babb and Kline were rushed back Into the fray, but It was too late. The college team looked like a different five after the “pep” had been turned loose. The gamo was tied up Just as the regulation forty minutes of play ended by a foul goa’ thrown by Records. It was two-to-one 'hen that the Franklin team would win because It had hit Its stride. In the extra five minutes of play the collegians dropped In three baskets to one for Callahan's crew. The whole Franklin team fought hard in the last of the game. Bobby Records was the high scorer with seven field goals. He would do better if he (lid not try to dribble right through the opposing team. His play improved last night when lie found that he could not “bust'' through a good team. For the Em-Roes Kline and Babb worked well at forward. Frankfort and Behrent also showed a strong defense. Groh at Third, Frisch at Second, McGraw States NEW YORK, Dee.

VEDDER CARD

tribute to a player on a minor college eleven. He said in part, under the heading “Best I Have Seen It is hard to Judge by seeing a man in Just one game, but If I am not badly mistaken the man who on a larger college team would be judged the best of the left tackles this season would bo Mllstead of Wabash College. This rangy, raw-boned boy to* a football team by himself and his work against the Army was one of the best exhibitions I ever have witnessed. He tore Army ’s strong line to pieces and repeatedly crushed through Breldster and later through Garbisch, two really great players. The fact that Mllstead attracted so much credit to himself In the East and also the fact that a number of MiddleWest critics placed him on All-Western second and third team selections creates the belief here that this great lineman will stand a splendid chance of landing a first All-Western berth next season and perhaps All-American mention. Mllstead Is a six-footer, weighs more than 200 pounds and is one of the fastest men on the Wabash squad. In nearly all of Wabash’s games this season rival teams played as many as three men against Milstead, but he Invariably crushed all opposition aside when he got warmed up. On many punts and kick-offs he was first down the field, and when be tackled a man that man was down. Notre Dame Grid Stars to Depart Dec. 18 for Big Clash With Centre SOUTH BEND.

‘Cat’ Adam Is Back in Fold at Wabash and Net Hopes Rise Forward's Return Adds Strength to Scoring Power — Vaughan Works Squad. CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Dec. 9. “Cat” Adam has decided to be good and has told Coach Pete Va’ughan as much. The Wabash forward who a few days ago decided he did not care so much whether he played or not and smoked a cigarette In the gym as a sign of his independence has changed his mind en.irely. He told Coach Vaughan today that his attitude has beeu all wrong and that if the Scarlet leader would take him back on the squad that there would be no more I trouble from “Cat.” “I want to play for ! Wabash,” said “Cat,” and that statement was sufficient. ! Vaughn agreed to let Adain have ani other chance, and as a result another forward was out for practice today with the Little Giant five. There is no doubt but that the return of Adam strengthens the team considerably, as the offense of the Crawfordsville school team seems to be the weakest sector of the five. Basketball practice is now on in earnest. The squad has been cut down to a workable basis and Vaughan is gradually gettting a combination together that will play Us first contest next week. The Kiwanis Club yesterday surprised the “W” men, and the two coaches of the grid team by awarding them each a silver watch fob in the shape of a football as a token of appreciation from the Kiwanis Club. The Scarlet eleven, It was said, has done more thana any other thing to boost the town of Crawfordsville. The inscription on the fob reads: “Season of nineteen twenty-one, Wabash, 22; De Pauw, 0.” Manual Meets Wabash Five Tomorrow at ‘Y’ The Manual basket-ball tossers are to be seen in action twice this week, the second string men journeying to New Augusta tonight ana the State team mixing with the fast Wabash High School five, tomorrow night at the local Y.
