Minor Leagues Meet Monday, Majors Tues- day, With Joint Conference Wednesday. HICAGO, January 8—Base ball magnates from all over the country are arriving for the beginning today of a series of meetings in- |35 tended to settle the many problems confronting the sport, most impottant of which is the new national agreemeat. A ' Today aund tomorrow the schedale committe¢ of the major league cted will be in session. It is expe opening April 13, with due consideration being given equal division of | terg, Sundays and holidays. The National two major leagues will meet Tuesday, and there will be a joint session of majors and minors Wednesday. Dissatisfaction is eaid to exist among minor league leaders with the proposed national agreement to oper- ate for twenty-five years. It is sald they are unwilling to bind themselves to a pact that extends beyond the Landis as head of base ball—eeven years. Judge Landis is acceptable to all of them, apparently, as the supreme authority of the sport’s gove! but they are said to be skeptical as to whether they will be as well pleased with the man who will succeed him. Big Miners Dissatisfied. There are indications that the class AA minors, composed of the Ameri- can ation, the International TLeague and the Pacific Coast League, desire to be rated higher than they are at present. It is delieved that the draft agree- ment, which was discontinued during the lifetime of the old national com- ission, may be brought up again at meetings next week, before a new agreement is finally ed. Several of the minor league heads have declared their wiilingness to en- ter the new national agreemeats if it is limited to acceptance of Judge Lan- dis ag arbiter in base ball and have said they will never consent to re-establishment of their old relations with the majors, including the draft and other objectionable regulations.

Eastern’s Victory in High School Title Series a Surprise—Western Downs Business. - ‘Western and Eastern won the open- ing games in the high school basket ball series at the Coliseum yesterday. Western ran true to expectations in defeating Business, 30 to 9, but East- ern sprung somewhat of a surprise by.downing Central, 16 to 9. It was evident almost from the out- set that Western would take the fheasure of the Stenographers, the Georgetown baskéters outplaying their opponents at all angles, but the Eastern-Central game was a battle royal from start to finish, the Capitol Hill team winning through its su- perior defense. Western gained an early lead in the game with Business, 17 to 7, at the halfway mark, and gradually widen- ing the margin in the final portion. Central scored first in its encounter with Eastern, but three minutes had elapsed before the first basket was shot. There was only one other point inthe first period, it going to Cen- tral. Eastern got going in the second quarter and was leading, 7 to 6, at intermission. Eastern was supreme in the last half, running into a 13 to 9 lead by the end of the third period, and add- ing three points in the final ten min- utes, while Central failed to count.
