BASEBALL LEADERS AGCEPT NEW PAGT

Majors and Clr.$s AA Leagues Divided on Price For Drafted Players. XEW YORK. Dec. 12. The tentative draft of tho proposed new National lLbeball agreement which is to be the government of the pport, wis accepted Stindny by the major an 1 minor league committers which : have been working on the document the last two days. The agreement as aeceptod by the committers was drafted Last night by Judge Kenejuw M. Iandis, George Wharton Ft pper of Philadelphia. John Conway Toole of New York, and J. C. Jones, of St. Iuig. The committee submitted two tentative agreement?, one between the National and Amer'can leagues and tlf other between the two major leiu-ues and the National Association of Professional Baeball leagues, the minor league organization. Act nt meetings. Action on the agreement between the two major leagues will be taken at their annual meetings, that of the National league on Tuesday In this city .nd the Amertan league at Chicago Friday. The agreement between the major leagues and the minor leagues association wil' be acted upon In a referendum a-:d will be submitted to each of the twenty seven leagues In the associa.i' n. The 'MUr will hold ä meeting at Chicago on January 10 to tak P.r.al action as an association and on January 12 ther wilt be a Joint ratification meeting at Ch.cago to bo participa'eu In by he National t r t A oerican leag ie ai d the Naiioi.al s-'clation. The most Important controvert al point to the proposed agreement ietween the major leagues and the minors was that relating to the drafting of players from one league by another of higher classification. The point was not definitely settled by tho committees because of the known opposition of the American association and tho International league to the restoration of the draft. Somo class A leagues al&o are opposed to it, while all leagues below class A favor it. The American association and the International league, it is said, would have no objection to a draft provision if the price for players so taken by the major league clubs Is fixed at $7,300. It is understood the major leagues are willing to make the price $5,000. Draft optional. In order to make progress toward the completion of the new national agreement, the joint committee accepted a, provision that the draft be optional. The clause would permit the drafting of players by the majjr leagues only from those lower leaglies tnat tavor sucn operation, out any minor league that rejects the pro posi won wm noi oe permuieu to draft players from league of lower classification. Thus if the American association and the Internatlf nal league continue their opposition to the draft they will be prohibited from drafting players from the leagues of lower class, that adopt the provision and the two class AA circuits then will be restricted from obtaining new players by outright purchases or by developing players

It onlv costs $4.40 to have one's name changed in probate court here, and it's not a diilicult court procedure It costs $1 to advertise the fact, according to the law; 4 0 cents is charged as a filing foe, and the court costs are about $3. And so far as known, the Cuyahoga county probate court has never refused a request. "Why should the court object." asked E. N. Fairbanks, a deputy. "Most persons have mighty good reasons for giving up their ancestral names." ueasons given vary greatly. A girl by the name of Kiss asked to change to Murphy. "It sounds so odd to have people call me Miss Kiss," she stated In her petition. ' Another woman changed from Bugg to Farley and one from Smack to Zeeder. A large number of the petitioners say their original names are a detriment to them in bus: ness. Many desire a change because their nam s are hard to pronouno and spell and that there are too many similar ones in Cleveland. often entire families petition to have their names changed, particularly foreign-speaking people who have children in school.
