December 4—The base ball folk who gathered here of Florida, the snows of Canada, the vineyards of California and the pie belt of New England to taik over the 1923 season are pretty well satisfied over the past year. of them prospered and are going on next year. Most There wiil be two or One of these new organizations will be located in Pennsylvania and will have clubs in York, Lancaster, Trenton, N. J., and other cities of that section. There was talk that this league would invade Virginia, but the Virginians did not warm up to the prospect, because they figured the traveling bills would be too large. Trolley leagues are more popular than trunk line leagues under present passenger fare schedules. Mike Sexton, president of the Na- tional Association of Minor Leagues. will congratulate the members when they assemble for their annual meet- ing tomorrow on the fact that o many of them got through 1922 with- out curtailing their seasons. Only two leagues out of the many through- out the country found it not worth while to continue the schedule. One was located in the northwest, and it is interesting to note that even if the life of the circuit was brief, it de- veloped some good ball players. The other was a league out Texas way. which kept on as long as it could, and when it had to suspend was given the right to reserve its players. The clubs approved, but the players did not. claiming their independence had been annihilated. Traders Hard at Work. By the time the first session opens the traders will be hard at work. Boley, the Baltimore shortstop, is wanted by the St. Louls Nationals, and lum fact may start competition for his services. At least five other major league clubs could be named jwhich would be helped by having jhim in the batting order. Commissioner Landis will be listen- ed to attentively if he sees fit to iaddress himself to the magnates as- jsembied. Some of the minors do mot like some things the commissioner has done. He has been criticized openly by two leagues, and the Pacific coast aggregation nearly came to a tilt at law with him. That seems to have been settled. If the minors follow the policy they pursued last year, after hearing what he has to =say, they will go forth and do exactly what they please. That was what they did in 1922 The commissioner told them at Bu falo a year ago that they would bet- ter come to an agreement in favor of the draft. They failed to follow his advice, and feel that the fact they did so well the past season proves they were right. Many Will String With Ban.

Deputy Diagne, Senegalese member of the French legislature, says he has positive proof that Siki was-to have Iald down to Carpentier in the fourth | round of the fight that gave Siki the crown. The pitiful part of it is, and it gives those opposed to the fight game great joy. that the game has many stains of like nature on it records. 1t is to be hoped that the Diagne charges will be thoroughly sifted and that just punishment will be meted | out fo any one concerned in any wrongful acts, regardless of who they are. Determination of the New York #tate commission to adopt a drastic Jrule which will disqualify fighters who win on fouls is a step in the right direction. The commission hopes to put the rule over at Tues-| day's meeting. There has been en- tirely too much feuling récéntly, and the sooner a fighter realizes that his end of a purse will be held up if he loses on a foul it is certain that there! will be fewer of them. —_—— LEADS WOFFORD ELEVEN.
