TENER DOES NOT FAVOR DISCHARGE OF BALLPLAYERS Will Not Go Inch to Ask Favors For Baseball He Says. NEW YORK. Nov. 23. The Nation
al League will not ask special exemp
tion for. any of its ball players and is
not in sympathy with any "'selfish
plan" of discrimination in favor of its business of players, declared John K.
Tener, president of the league hero today. "I would not go an inch toward Washington to ask President Wilson or the secretary of war for special
favors for baseball," said the execu
tive of the National League in discussing the proposal to exempt eighteen baseball players on each club of the two major leagues, as suggested by
President Johnson of the American
League.
'"I think it most unpartiotic," continued Mr. Tener, "to suggest that baseball should even appear to shirk a dity at this time, when so many parents are giving their sons and when other business interests are giving their best men to the service of our armed forces and are making other sacrifices for the benefit of our country. "It seems to me nothing could be further from the purposes of baseball. We can not ask the government to grant us the slightest favor. Any amusement or single business is a trifling thing compared to the obtaining of liberty for all the nations of the world. "I can not state too strongly that the National League is not in sympathy with any selfish plan of discrimination In favor of its business or players. The National League will continue to help the government In any way possible."

PRESIDENT OF COMMISSION LIKES JOHNSON'S PLAN CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 23. "Organ
ized baseball has already done a great deal for the cause, and if continued will do a great deal more," said August Herrmann, chairman of the National Baseball Commission, here today. "As I understand It the President of the United States has stated that sports of all kinds should be continued and encouraged, yet after all we must realize that baseball and all lines of sport In this great crisis must be placed on an equal plane. "The suggestion that the player limitation of major league clubs be reduced to eighteen meets with my positive favor. If the two leagues take action along these lines, that In Itself will remove, to a great extent, the doubt now existing about the proper equipment of major league clubs next year for the reason that if some of the players are lost by the government requirements, as they will be, there will be a sufficient number left, in my judgment, to properly equip and equalize the sixteen major league dubs, if the player limitation is reduced as tuggested."
Culver And Lake Forces Will Clash
CULVER, Ind.,. Nov. 23. The Culver Military Academy elecen is counting upon the hardest game of its schedule in the contest with Lake Forest Saturday. Victory In this game will give the Cadets a claim upon secondary school championship of the Middle West, as they have been defeated only by men of college rank from Notre Dame. On the other hand they have defeated in turn Evansville High School, Kalamazoo, Loyola, Morgan Park and Elgin academies. Coach Peck has spent the week in bolstering the defensive play; in which the team showed its weakness last Saturday.
LOCAL HIGH AND NEWCASTLE ALL SET FOR TONIGHT
Richmond Basket Shooters Expect to Give Visitors Close Fight. A fifty-fifty contest is expected
when the Richmond basket-shooters
bump the Newcastle quintet at the Coliseum Friday night.
The Richmond boys have been practising steadily this week and hope to beat the Newcastle five in spite of
the black cloud which seems to have
settled over the Richmond squad With Simmons on the bench and Shel
ton playing his last game it looks as though a hoodoo had settled in the
camp.
Coach Mullins says, "The men are
In good shape for the game with the
exception of Simmons who will be out part of the game on account of a bad
knee."
The R. H. S. leather tossers have
been grinding steadily this week in
j reparation, ui giving iew uasue a close fight. According to Coach Mullins, J. Shaffer will start the game playing Simmons' position at center. ' Shaffer has been practising with the squad for several nights and is developing into a good center, so the possibilities are that Capt. Simmons will remain on the bench. The Newcastle basketball games are always well attended and an extra large crowd is expected tonight. The
Richmond team will be well, supported by a large group of rooters, a drum corps and a band.
The probable lineup for tonight is
as follows: Shelton and Harding,
guards; Gardner and Robinson, for
wards: J. Shaffer, center. On the
bench Stegman, guard or forward;
Van Allen, Simmons, forwards; Sim
mons, captain, center; Cramer, guard.
The Newcastle lineup has not been
announced but it is thought that
George Stout, back guard and mainstay of the Newcastle team, will be out of the game due to an injury received in the Knightstown game.
SPORT SNAP SHOTS
Before the minor league men ad
journed their unsatisfactory meeting at Louisville recently they voted to hold their next annual conclave at
Peoria, 111. They selected Peoria In spite of urgent re quests to meet next year at Newark, Columbus, Indianapolis, Buffalo and other Class A. A. cities. In other words, the delegates decided that it would be better to cut one another's throats in a real minor league town. Perhaps in 1919 they will pick out Muskegon, Rocky Mount, Ottumwa or some other lively place where their deliberations will be in keeping with their short sighted policy. When Miller Huggins settles down to the task of trying to develop a winner for the American league in New York he will be associated with many friends of other days. His chief scout will be Joe Kelly, who was the first manager for whom Huggins worked in the major leagues. Joe was boss of the Cincinnati club when the little fellow came into the National league back In 1904, and Kelley helped Huggins in his fight for a major league berth. Now Joe will try to help him in another way. Two of Huggins' outfielders were teammates of the new manager, before he succeeded Roger Bresnahan as leader of the Cardinals. Frank Gllhooley and Elmer Miller are the athletes who drew tryouts with the
St. Louis club. Most of the Yankees are strangers to Huggins, but he will require little time to make every player his friend. Probably the one fighter who has gone back farthest and quickest Is ack Dillon. The man-killer of other days is now a pitiful wreck, as he showed when given a sound trouncing by Billy Miske in New York the other night. Jack finished the ten rounds, but that's all. He was so near a knockout all through the eighth, ninth and tenth sessions that Miske repeatedly asked the referee to stop the bout. Dillon, however, realizing before the scrap that he was in for a lacing, had ordered his seconds under no circumstances to throw In the sponge and had requested the referee not to stop the scrap, no matter how bad it looked for him.

Cambridge City to Play Liberty Team
CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Nov. 23. The C. C. H. S. leather tossers will journey to Liberty Friday night, where they hope to hang one on the boys down the valley. Although defeated by Modoc in their last game they have no intention of repeating the procedure.
Richmond Picked Team Still Hopeful
Although defeated twice by the Dayton picked bowling team the Richmond picked team expects to come back at the Twlgg Bowling alley tonight when they roll the Dayton team in a contest for total pins. The men who are to play on the Richmond team are King, Tomlinson, Meyers,-Bennett and Lichtenf els. In the last game which was played at Dayton, Richmond won two out 6t three of the games but Dayton rolled the highest number of points by pins. POSTOFFICE TO CLOSE
