> LANDIS: GEN | NEW CONTRACT AND MORE PAY, Salary Boosted to $65,000 a Ycar—Ban Johnson First to Congratulate Him i hicago, Dec. 17—()—Baseball’s largest Christmas present, a contract for nearly a half a: million dollars, with the best wishes of all the club owners, goes to Kenosaw M. Landis. The ruler of the diamond not only received another. seven-year term with an increase in salary to $65,000 a year—a total of $455,000—but the congratulations of President Ban Johnson of the American League, his former critic, and the season of good will today ‘pervaded the baseball world. Only one little false note was heard in the chorus of harmon: President Sam Breadon of the St. Louis Cardinals still has difficulty in secing his way clear to meet the demands of his star, Rogers Horns- by, who piloted the Cards out of the wilderness into a world champion- ship. Hornsby will manage the Car- dinals "aR year, Breadon insists, but the ‘of the contract are yet to be eva. Killifer Goes to Browns There were plenty of rumors that Bill Killifer, Hornsby’s assistant last year, was offered the pilot's job, but declined through friendshi for Hornsby, and so was given his re- lease. At once he accepted the St. Louis Browns’ offer to coach them vd spring as assistant to Dan How- ey. Hornsby, it is reported, demands a three-ycar contract with a salary of $50,000 a year. Breadon is in favor of a one-year contract and a com-|) promise on the salary demand. Killifer, understudy to Hornsby, and Bill «McKechnie, former Pirate leader, were- accorded the honors of being pos: ties to succeed Horns- hy, in the event he failed to come to terms with Breadon. Reports persisted that Hornsby might be traded to the Giants for Frankie Frisch and a large wad of money, but Breadon was inclined to classify these rumors “a lot of bunk.” The three-hour joint session of the baseball moguls yesterday s ed with reelection of Johnson was the first to shake the commissioner’s hand and congratu- late hii Slump in Player Trading The activity in. player trading slumped when the National Leaguers arrived for the joint session, and cept for the Hornsby:Killifer activ- the magnates seemed to feel that Landis contract and the exten- sion of the playing. season was enough business for one gathering. were amended to omit the provision which clésed the~1926 season on the last Sunday in Septem- ber, and the closing date for 1927 was left to the February schedule meetings. It likely will be ‘October with the world series starting} three days later. ‘ Even the minor league draft com- mitvee: was put off for a later con- ference, though the major-minor agreement, contingent upon Landis’ suzerainty, was revised to mect the new conditions. The original draft clause required clubs refusing to submit to the draft, to declare their intention before April 1, 1921, and the date was changed to April 1, 1927. Before that time, three members from each major league. will meet the minors to try for some more definite arrangements on the draft. ‘A committee was appointed con- sisting of Clark Griffith, E. 8, Ba nard and Garry Herrmani lending some sort ‘of the “sand lot” baseball circuits, on the plea of the ;national baseball federation.
