1 . SPORTS. 'LANDIS ALONE CAN DEAL WITH RULES VIOLATORS BY JOHN B. FOSTER. EW YORK club is concerned, it had not N looked that the New York club has ~ * nothing about it. It is not a matter for its consideration. The agreemen between the clubs oi the major lcag the world series in the hands of the is Judge Landis can League president is in authorit he had wished to do so he could ha was not satisfied with it. That provision was introduced into the Fules in order that (Mere, might | not be a repetition of the incident of 1919, which seems never likely to be forgotten. even though it may be overlooked. In everything that pertains to the government of the series the major leagues ure without authority unle: they murually agree to change U conditions under which they work at present. There is a good reason for that arrangement. The major leagues wished to transfer their authority in order that the individual clubs might avoid responsibility for just such con- ditions as those which haye arisen. It is_with no intent to “pass the buck.” but to avoid controversy and arguments with their own ball players and aiso to insure uniformity in the manner in which things are con- troiled. Formerly No Redress. It has happened in the past that players of clubs which have wor in world series have voted the distribu- tion of the prize money in such a way that some of the members of the tcam o, felt they were unjustly treated. Un- der the old methods there was no redress, except to try to get players 10 refund the cash which had been awarded to them, and any one who has made the attempt to get a ball player to turn back any part of prize money which he has’ received will recognize the difficulty of endeavoring to obtain a settlement through such a method. The New York American League club cannot say to Judge Landis that he shall pay the players of that club. * because the club doesn’t wish to do 80, in the first place, and it would be idly wasting breath, in the second. The money is out of jurisdiction. In the past the process has been for the chairman of the national commis- * sion to send a check to the managers i of the winning and losing teams for a lump sum. obtaining signatures for the amount and permitting the mana- ger or some specially delegated au- thority to divide the money pro rata. That way the national commission rid . itself of the cash. but not always of controversy, because players who were chagrined over the distribution wrote letters to the chairman telling him ovember 4.—So far as the New York American League hing to say as to the decliua\iou of Judge Landis to mail checks for the share of the world series money to Babe Ruth, Mcusel and Piercy. It seems to have been over- nothing to do about it, and can do t ues specifically places the control of advisory council, of which the head Neither the National League president nor the Ameri- y.

SUSFENSION OF GEDEON ESTABLISHES PRECEDENT CHICAGO, November 4.--Joe Gedean, former second buseman of the St. Louls Browns, has been placed on the ineligi- ble list by Judge Landis, commissioner of base ball. The action followed a telegram from Willlam McCarthy, president of the Pa- «fic Coast League, to Judge Landis, in- quiring about the status of Gedeon, who was scheduled to participate in a game on the coast. in which a number of Coast League players were to take part. None of the indieted players, who ‘were later acquitted by a jury in crimi- nal court here, has made application to Judge Landis for reinstatement in or- ganized base ball, and the action of the commissioner in the case of Gedeon is looked upon as sstting a possible prec- edent for action if reinstatcment is re- quested by them. BABE RUTH MAKES HIT MOUNT VE . Y.. November 4.—From the ball diamond what they thought and in some cases threatening t So long as Judge Landis retains the share of the players who transgressed the rules of base ball he will hold the whip hand over the situation be- cause they must go to him to get their . cash. It will not do them a particle of good to go to the owners of the New York American League Club or to the ‘president of the American League, as none of them can do a thing in the matter. The games were played under the vaudeville stage ix some change, but that is what Babe Ruth did last night, when he made his debut here in what was described as a satirical home run, called “That's Good."” Babe appeared with Wellington Cross and Dean Moore and they made a real hit with the audience. Ruth received sev- eral encores which caused him to make a little speech.
