QUAKERS REGULARS , MAY LOSE JOBS TO HARD-WORKING SUBS
With prospects of an opportunity to perform before the record crowd of the season, both the regulars and the scrubs of , Earlham's leathertossing squad have been hltitng a fast pace, and Indications point to a real contest when the quakers and Little Giants buck on the Coliseum Friday night Fans are urged to start early, as the small supply of reserved seats is about exhausted, and standing room will be at a premium. All the Quaker regulars have come back into the game, and will be ready to start. Only one of the regulars has his position cinched, however, and that Is Carey, the regular center. Ooar has been pressing both Lawler and Hall for a point-making position, and it Is possible that either of the regulars may be asked to warm the bench. Hlnshaw Looks Good. The same condition holds good-in the guard section. Hlnshaw has been humping, and will have a good chance to pass Pitts for floor guard honors. Pitts has been playing his usual class of basketball. Johnson has Just recently recovered from Illness, and although he probably will be able to start In' Friday's game, Coach Mowe baas drilled Davis to fill his place. The final game of the season, unless a special game can be arranged with DePauw, will be played against Franklin, at the Coliseum, next Wednesday night. Efforts are being made to schedule a special date with DePauw to take the place of the game recently canceled.
Changes in the Rules
EDITOR'S NOTE The following amendments to the playing code of baseball were officially adopted by the joint rules committee of tho National and American leagues in session at Chicago. Feb. 8, and ratified by the two major leagues at their meetings Feb. 10. Other changes will follow day by day. Paste them In your hat, the season's coming. Amend Rule 34, as follows Section 7 to read: i Sec. 7. Making any motion to pitch while standing in his position without having tho ball In his' possession; or regardless of whether he makes any motion to pitch or not, if the pitcher takes a legal position on the rubber without the ball In his possession, or if he takes a position off the rubber and feints to deliver the ball to the btit. And add the .following explanatory . paragraphs to end of present Rule 34: After the pitcher has taken position, with both hands holding tho ball in
front of him, he can not take cither'
hand off the ball except in tno act or delivering the ball to the batsman or In throwing to bases. If the pitcher steps off the rubber, after being in position, for the purpose either of drying his hands or nibbing his eyes, or for other reasons, and it is a legitimate' action not understood or interpreted by the umpire to deceive the base runner, then the a. umpire shall call "time." V In case a "balk" is called, the ball ' ehall be considered "dead" when announcement is made, and no play can be made until the runner or runners reach the base or bases to which they are entitled. If, with one or more runners on base, the pitcher, in the act of delivering the ball to the batsman or in throwing to first base, drops the ball intentionally or accidentally, the umpire shall call it a "balk" and advance . runner or runners. No penalty shall be imposed if, with no one on bases, the pitcher drops the ball while delivering it to the batsman. "If, with no one on base, tho pitcher delivers the ball while off tho rubber, the umpire shall call a "ball" whether it goes over the plate or not. If, however, the batsman strikes at such Illegally delivered ball, it counts either for a strike or whatever play may follow.
811m Sallee. Slim Sallee, veteran lefthander, has been struggling between two desires for several seasons. One was to lead the 6imple life and the other was to stay in baseball. Slim found he couldn't do both. But at last Sllm's mind Is at rest. Baseball has won out as most of Sallee's friends . were sure It would. Slim has sold his farm down at Higginsport, O., and has signed up for another year's work with the champion Reds. Slim was born in said Higginsport, Feb. 3, 18S5. He started playing pro ball with the Meridian club in the
Cotton States league in 1905, but was
sold to the Birmingham Southern
I league club before the season was over.
He pttcnea mere two years ana men
the Yanks obtained him, only to release him to Williamsport in May, 1907. That fall the Cardinals drafted him and he served eight years in the baseball cellar. When all hope seemed gone along came the Giants with an
offer to the Cards of $10,000 for Slim,
and on July 23, 1916, the deal was made.
Slim won 18 and lost 7 games for the Giants in 1917 and broke even with eight wins and eight defeats in 1918, and then announced he was through with baseball, preferring farm life to
the plaudits of the fans. McGraw
couldn't pursuade him to reconsider
his move and gave it up. rat Moran slipped down to Higginsport one day
and over some ham ana eggs tamea
Slim into pitching for the Reds. He
won 21 games for Pat, homing up nis end of the pitching. In the world series he won the second game of the
classic and lost the seventh.
An interesting sidelight on Sllm's big league career is that in eleven years in which he faced the Cinci Reds on the mound they were able to beat him only 10 times while going
down to defeat before his arm 24 times. U. S. Exported 148,086,470 Bushels of Wheat in 1919 WASHINGTON, Feb. 19. America's part in feeding the war stricken nations of Europe is shown in the reports of the Department ofCommerce todav which nut the total wheat ex-
ports from the United States in 1919 Ut over 36,000,000 bushels more than
the 1918 shipments. During the past year the United States exported 148,086,470 bushels of wheat compared with 111,177,103 In
"1918 according to the department's
tlgures representing an increase in Value of over $96,000,000. Wheat flour, however, advanced only by approximately 4,500,00 barrels over the 1918 export total. England led as a market for American wheat in 1919 taking 44,818,552 bushels valued at $107,503,619 with
i-taly .importing 38,264,883 bushels, 'worth $91,054,928, a close second.
Standing third France took 27,590,718 bushels valued at $66,552,585. Belgium with a total of 24,476,490 bushels valued at $59,901,083 wa3 fourth.
LEVIS PUTS OUT MOODY 8 SECONDS
Bowling Notes
According to advices received from Engand, where Ted Lewis is boxing
a new recora was recently made lor
the English ring when Lewis knocked out Frank Moody of Pontypridd in the lightning time of eight seconds at Manchester. Moody delivered only one punch a left to the head while a left to the face and a right to the jaw finished all Moody's fighting for the
night. A large crowd of sportsmen"? from all parts of the country were?
present, many making the journey from London. Branch Rickey's announcement of the purchase of Jacques Fournier by the Cardinals indicates he has changed his mind about using Clifford Heathcote at first base this year. Heathcote is an outfielder by inclination, and most of his experience has been gained in the outer patrol, yet he is a versatile youngster and has demonstrated that, if the occasion warranted, he could be employed successfully in the infield. Rickey planned to groom Heathcote as a first sacker on the Cardinals' training trip, but now that he has Fournier he no doubt will" put the Frenchman on the initial sack and allow Heathcote to remain in the outfield. Incidently the Cardinals have four good outfielders in Heathcote, Austin McHenry, Jack Smith and Burt Stotten. Stanley Baumgartner, who has not played a game since 1915, wants to return to the Phillies. In 1916 the Phillies sent him to Providence, but, he refused to go and has been loafing ever since. He was kep on the Philly reserve right along all these years. He was a pretty good pitcher in his day, but it is doubtful if he can perform a successful comeback stunt Most of the veterans of the Detroit club have returned signed contracts for the coming season, enough in fact to enable Hugh Jennings to put a strong team on the field if the season were to open tomorrow.

CUBAN READY FOR MAJORS (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Feb. 19 Armando Marsans, the Cuban baseball player, who suffered a fractured leg while a member of the New York American team in 1917, has announced that he is in excellent condition and willing to join the Yankees according to Walter Pipp. the Yankee first baseman, who has Just returned from Cuba.

SENATOR POMEREIIE WITHDRAWS FROM PRESIDENTIAL RAGE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19 Senator Atlee Pemerene, of Ohio, Wednesday night withdrew from the Democratic presidential contest, announcing his decision in a formal statement Issued to Ohio Democrats. Principal reasons assigned as having influenced his decision were: Disinclination to neglect his official duties as a member of the United States Senate in order to enter a political campaign; the apparent futility of prosecuting such a candidacy outside of Ohio with the handicap of a divided delegation from bis home state, and his desire to maintain party harmony. Although his announcement caused little surprise, in the light of apparently reliable reports during the last few days, it was the first declaration on the subject made by Senator Pomerene personally, and is accepted as final. Its immediate effect was to provide
impetus to the Presidential candidacy of Governor James M. Cox, of Ohio,
who now is assured of a United Democratic delegation from his state wher his name is presented at the San Francisco Convention, June 28.
