| SPORTS. .TooMuc MAJOR CLUBS LET MANY REMAIN 0LE With 40-Player-Limit Rule, Men Minors Could Use Rust on Bench. BY GEORGE CHADWIC EW YORK, November n this talk tha as been going on about the elimination of waste in industry and Ameri- [& leadership in efficiency h n't reached the ea ball magnates. There are however, that such a roar e at the convention of the minor leagues beginning De- cember ¢ at Dallas, Tex. that it will shake the ground under the feet of a few of the guardians of the na- | tional game. | Specifically, what is likely to hap- pen at Dallas is that the minors will make a counter move to the proposal of the major leagues by asking that the player limit for major clubs be set at fewer than 40 men—perhaps as low as The 40-player limit h: been recommended by the advisory council. composed of Commissioner Landis and the presi ts the Amer- fcan and National League and will d upon at the joint major on in New York De- methods the base prospects, will be turned los on way about rosters. it If the minors have their reducing the major club would be the best thing that_could ppen to big league base ball. That's re the waste and lack of efficiency methods enter into the situation. Many Players Wasted. Tn the words of one veteran base ball man who communicated to this correspondent the resuits of his study | of the subject, “the big leagues are throwing away more than 160.000 hours of high class base ball every seazon because they permit lled yers to rust idly on the bench.” This base ball veteran has been an observer of plavers and basg bail methods for about u quarter of a| u century and he probably has talked | * to more individual base ball y than any one man in the He has fitted them s, shoes and advice. “If the player limit were cut down | from 40 to men for each major | team.” he said, “there would be 240 | more ball players ready to serve the | base ball public with their skill. That would relieve the shortage of players | of which the minors complain and it | would mean a saving of those 160.000 lost hours of base ball skill each sea- | son.” | 1t is said that one major club at | the present time controls more than 100 players. That is somewhat e: aggerated, but it is true that the club | Goes have a lot of ball players clut- tering up its back vard Another argument against the con- trol of 40 or more players by one club is that half of the managers don’t know what to do with what they have. They can come to no decision. If they lose a_game or two they be- Ein to make changes at once, mply Because they have so many players at their command. Too Many for Picking. “I can name two major managers.” said the veteran, “who without having 40 players to fool with might easily have won cham- pionships. They had the material 10 win, but they saw so many stars #round that they don’t know which one to pick. When they picked one they always wished afterward that it had been the other’ There is a time in the life player when he is certain .» boom and do his best. He has at least five years during which he plays at top form. Sometimes he has more, but it is rather safe to count on five sure| years of high-class base ball. Too many of the boys are not getting an opportunity today to show that they | have those five years. Their base ball kill pines and droops away on the bench. If the minor leagues of the country could count upon 240 additional ball players next season, the major leagues, it is argued, would step live- lier because the managers would have to find some other way to try to win ball games than by changing the pitcher every inning. Better played ball sgames would result—a point that | is of particular interest to the man | who pays his dollar at the gate.

The Giants proved too versatile for the Chicago Bears yesterday and pushed the Bruins from second to third place in the standing by a 13-to-7 defeat. Cleveland took a firm grip on fourth place by trimming the Chicago Cardi- nals, 32 to 7. Providence humbled Grange's team, with the famous red head confining his efforts mostly to passing, by a 14-to-T count in the only other game played Sunday.

I recall that we had luncheon that day with Gene and his man- ager, Billy Gibson, and Alex Smith, the an_ Scottish professional, and dair and a number of other interesting celebrities. And Gene Tunney was the quietest of all. Billy on talked a good deal. as he has a_way of doing. and talked well and entertainingly. Alex Smith was not precisely re- ticent. Bobby Jones talked a little. Gene talked not at all. 1 remember. too, that 1 got a great idea of Gene Tunney, at the luncheon, and in the gallery at the golf match. I got the idea that this young man was quiet through actual modesty. and not, as many quiet persons are. because they do not_know enough to say anything. He never once spoke of himself.

His punting also kept the ball in Hawk territory al-| most throughout the engagement. Apache backs carried the fight to the Hawk goal on several occasions, but succeeding in crossing it only once.

BASKET BALL BLOCK RULING IS CLARIFIED By the Assaciated Press NEW YORK, November 28.—The rule on blocking. considered ambigu ous by leading hasket hall officials and long the subject of controversy, prob- ably will cause no further difficulty for referees ot intercollegiate court | games. Clarification of the rule that stated merely that “blocking is impeding the progress of an opponent who has the hall” resulted yesterday at the annual Fall meeting of the Eastern Inter- collegiate Basket Ball League here. The following interpretation of Rule 7, Section 12, was adopted: foul results unless personal contact is made with the following exception: If a player attains a position on the floor which results in cutting off an opponent and subse- quently makes any movement or mo- tion that impedes the progress of the opponent cut off, even though no personal contact with his opponent i: effected thereby. it may be a block Speaking for the executive commif tee of the league of which he is a member, Ellwood W.
