Here’s Man Who Wants Sport Fans to Organize for Control of Games

NEW YORK, Jan. 17. —An association of sport fans to dictate to tho sport v world what the man who pays the money really wants—an organization that could make for clean sport, fair fights and honest prices—was proposed here today by Barret O’Hara, former Lieutenant Governor of Illinois. O'Hara, who is at present a candidate for the United States Senate, proposes to organize sport followers of the United States into one great club regardless of their sport. Pans have never before been permitted a voice in the world of sport, O'Hara said, and he proposes that they start something for themselves. He has received assurances of support in Illinois. Wisconsin, Michigan and Missouri, and has come East to spread the idea. Eastern State Normal Launches Basket Drive MUNCIE, Ind., Jan. 17—Coach Williams’ basket tossers of the eastern division, State Normal School, have at last struck their winning stride, anil he expects them to annex the long end of the score during the majority of the remaining games. Starting with the win over Dayton University last Friday, with a score of 23-15, a series of victories seems possible. For six weeks the basket schedule has two games a week on it for the Red and White players, and some of the combinations will make hard games for the local Normal team. Pefhaps the most interesting of the number will be when Williams' men meet Rose Polytechnic and the other division of the State Normal, both from Terre Haute. The game with the Terre Haute Normal will ~be of particular interest because Coach Rayh of that team and Williams of the Muncie outfit were for some lima teammates, K. C.

American Tennis Association Stays Clear of Alliance U. S. Governing Body Declines Invitation to Join International Federation. By HENRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—Ententes and i national alliances may be the vogjie of the day but American sport is showing a tendency to steer clear of any international combinations. , Especially is this true in the case of tennis, the only universal, international sport. For years. England has been bringing : pressure on the United States Lawn Tennis Assoclatlou to affiliate with the iuternational federation, but the governing body of the game In this country declined and It is unlikely that the policy ! will be changed this year. ; America had nothing particularly to . lose by association with the federation and likewise site had nothing particularly to gain. The one obstacle, however, was the demand of England that America subscribe to the plan of giving international championships to Wimbledon in perpetuity. ' The United States officials maintained that the only fair way would be to alter- ; nate the championships among the countries affiliated with the federation. Obviously It is true that the American game could not do justice to “***£ under any arrangements whereby tne American players would have to mas the trip every year to England. Not only would the expeuses of transportation keep the American entries at a minimum, but the change in climate and conditions would be a great handicap. American opposition to this plan was voiced again at the recent meeting or the British I,awn Tennis Association and again the British would not agree to anything but permanent play at A\ lmbledon It was pointed out that England could hardly forego the right to stage the championships every year b( r a, . ls ® \ „ British association had entered into an agreement with the All-England club to hold the championships for twenty-five years. On the strength of this agreement $500,000 was expended to . bl ‘*\ < * , equip the courts and stands at \\ liable ’ d °lt seems that the championships will be continued to be held at W lmbb^ l ‘J} and that Europe will continue to regard the winner as the world's champion, I America refusing to recognize a -world s this regard, the poßltlon of the United States Association has been com slstent.

Some of the Zip Will Be Missing From Balls miCAGO, Jan. 17.—The war has been blamed for almost everything, b t fhts s the first time it has been held responsible for the lively ball iu tho major leagues ll That? however, was exactly what Ban Johnson, American League president, declared In denying reports that hail ordered manufacturers to make less active baseballs in 1922. rations The order wasn t needed. 1 reparations already had been made to take the zlp out of the baseball, be During the war, Johnson asserted, manufacturers wore only able to securean inferior brand of wool yarn with which to wrap the horsehldes. Last season, when superior Australian yarn was available, manufacturer* failed to make allow an e for the greater resiliency. This is '|hat put the unusual number of extra base knocks in the batting records, according to Johnson. . . . . Also rubber centres were found to be uneven, he declared, which added considerably to the liveliness of the bail. Commerce Five Defeats Ohio Independents, 52-31 The local Chamber of Commerce ieam defeated the Ohio State Independents last night at Tomlinson Hall, 52 to 31. in a rough gamo. Hennessey was a star for tile Commerce five with eight ind 1 goals. Stevens got ten from the foul line and put four through the net from the field. The locals were a bit too fast for the Buckeye aggregation and always kept tuc lead. The Ohioans put on some speed at the start of the second period and drew up close to the Commerce outfit, but the rally was short-lived and the locals pulled away again. Thiele counted six times from the field for the visitors.

The method of counting was devised by Louis P. Petersen and gives credit for both total plus and games won.

A point is scored for each fifty pins, additional fractions sire credited for each part of fifty, and the sum is carried forward until each contestant iu the big event has rolled 115 games. Credit also is given for each game won thereby giving the contenders a double premium to shoot at. Twenty-four picked bowlers will compete in the tourney.

Suspension of Ruth to Stand , According to Views of Many Reinstatement Would Smack of Commercialism, Certain Baseball Men Fear. BY JACK VEIOCK. NEW YORjIT, Jan. 17.—Babe Ruth will break no home run record this year. That is, not if the suspension against him stands, and it is believed that it will. This is the opinion of baseball men in general and although officials of the Yankees today declined to discuss the probable effect a month’s suspension will have on Ruth's hitting, it is a practical cinch they feel the same way about it. The case of the home-run king has been revived by the circulation of a rumor that the major leagues will throw out the rule against barnstorming at their schedule meetings in February. This rumor is vigorously denied in some quarters for, it is pointed out, Judge Landis’ decision must oe 6trictly upheld with no show of attempts at evasion and that the reinstatement of Ruth now would be looked upon as a purely commercial move. ‘‘We have heard nothing regarding the case of Ruth or Meusel since Judge Landis handed down his decision,” Baid Business Manager Ed Barrow of th< Y'ankees today, “and all I know is that the ruling does not apply to the spring exhibition season. Aside from this I do not care to discuss the case.” Providing Ruth’s suspension stands and he gets started on his 1922 campaign for home runs within five days of May 30, when he will again be eligible to enter the Yankee line-up, he will start just twelve home runs behind his record of last season. Ruth got his first homer last season on April 16 and his twelfth on May 17 at Cleveland. He did not get his thirteenth until May 25. So the task cut out for the big bambino if he is kept out of the line-up will be just about as big as a house. California Golf Meet LOS ANGELES, Jan. 17.—Jim Barnes and Jack Hutchison had difficulty getting started yesterday in the qualifying round of the California open golf championship here, Barnes landing fourth with a score of 73 snd Hutchison tying with eight others for thirteenth place with an 80. Chick Frazer of the Mldwick Club was first with 70. Two strokes behind him were Eddie Loos of Pasadena, the title holder, and Abe Espinosa of Monterey, Cal.

BAN ON CHAMP MADE COMPLETE National Boxing Body Acts Against Wilson—Association’s Work Progresses. Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 17.—When tho second annual convention of the National Boxing Association of the United States convened here Monday at the Grunewald Hotel, delegates from all over the United Statee and the Dominion of Canada were present. A vast amount of routine business was transacted. One real knock-out was scored. The act of the Ohio boxing commission was sustained relative to the suspension of Middleweight Cb mplon Johnny Wilson and his ma".' ger, Martin Killelai, for one year dat‘ .g irom Sept. 2, 1921. Wilson will now be deprived of boxing in more than twenty States and iu France and England, as the French Boxing Federation and the British board of boxing control are to be affiliated with the National body. Walter H. Ltginger, Milwaukee, president of the association was in the chair and handled a vast amount of business in a most expeditious manner during the three-hour session. Secretary Treasurer Tex O’Rourke of New Y'ork, reported the association free .from debt with a balance in the treasury. Four States, Texas, Kentucky, Ylinnesota and Connecticut, signified their Intention of joining the association. Following representatives were present*: W. A. Tremblay, Montana; R. T. Burke, Louisiana; E. A. MeAuley, Michigan; L. H. Lightcap, Stanley M. Isaacs, Ohio; Latrobe Cogswell, Maryland: P. J. Mulqueen. William Robertson, Toronto, Canada; Frank B. Russell, Kentucky: F. J. Murphy, Connecticut, William Kramer, Arkansas; J. B. Stevenson. Texas; L. R. Doyle. Nebraska; R. D. Marcus, C. A. Coogan, New Orleans. Prior to the business session there was| a mid-day luncheon. Last night, the dele-| gates were entertained by a boxiDg carfiival at PillsbOiry Garden followed by a New Orleans surprise party. President Liginger's address to the convention and Secretary O'Rourke's report revealed a growing healthy condition of the sport throughout the country. The number of boxers who ignore the ethics of the game is gradually growing less. The rigid dlscipli: e of the association so faithfully lived up to by the various States is bearing fruit. As soon ns the association can get the plan financed, champions of the different classes will be rewarded by belts which they will be forced to defend in given periods.—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.
