Ieginning next Sunday, a regularly scheduled championship National or American league game will be played cvery Sunday at the former Newark Federal league grounds at Harrison, nce the settlement between ithe major leagues and the Federal jcague it was rumored that the Ciants, Yankees and Dodgers would play Sunday baseball at Harrison. Tho first direct intimation that the 1Jan had actually been adopted came lust Saturday, when the Yankees and Washingtons received orders from I resident Johnson to play at Harri- son last Sunday. The Washington club was unable to comply, as it al- rcady had scheduled an game with the Braves Point, R. 1.

However, the backers of the new International league must have been aware of what to expect, as the new Newark club was anxious to use the Harrison plant, but was unable to ob- tain it. At one of the new Interna- tional league meetings it was said the American league was blocking the efforts of the new Newark club to go into Harrison. Newark Had Chance to Get Park. President Tener said last night that plans to play Sunday major league ball at Newark were complet- ed before they knew anything about the new league. He said it was not until April 1 that the majors heard | positively the new league would ruake a start. It also is necessary for the majors to make the Harrison plant pay some of the heavy rental which the for- mer Federal league promoters exact- ed from the big leagues at the peace settlement. The two leagues have $100,000 rental to pay off on the plant. As the Brooklyn Federal league park is a dead loss, and is costing the big leagues $20,000 in rental, without counting taxes and cther expenses, an effort will be made to make the Harrison plant self-sup- porting. HAUGHTON CLAIMS MACK’S STAR PITCHER league yesterday admitted that the Harrison plant will be utilized by both major leagues on Sundays throughout the season.

Springfield, Mass., April 30.—For- mal transfer of the New Haven club from James T. Collins to Edward J. Dugan was cffected at a meeting of the Eastern Baseball league held at the Cooly House, here yesterday. Du- gan was introducd to his brother magnates and was then elected a di- rector to succeed Collins. Collins was in attendance for a short time, leaving as soon as the transter had been promulgated. Dugan withheld comment on his intended plans, s!‘&t- ing that he chose to talk the situation over first with Danny Murphy, whom he expects to retain as manager. The schedule committee whick has been working on its list of games for over two weeks, submitted its draft | which was formerly adopted, follow- ing a few minor changes. The New Haven may be able to play Sunday dates, three holiday engagements and 16 Monday games The unusually large number of Monday dates werc awarded on the assumption that New Haven may be able to play Sunday ball. Waterbury will play in New Haven on Memorial day afternoon, Springfield will appear there on July 4th and Bridgeport on Labor day. The magnates took official action 0\': the proposition to boost the price of admission. It was decided to raise the price on bleacher seats to 30 cents and to hoist the grand stand paste boards to 60 cents. For every thirty cent ticket the club would receive 25 cents and the government three cents. This would Jeave two cents which Mr. Moulton favored turning over to some chari- table organization now engaged in war work. The proposition was met with favor by the magnates who de- cided to leave it to the discretion of each individual club-owner. A communication W read August Herrmann, chairman of ! National Commission stating that it would be impossible at this time to grant the Bastern request for class A rating. He offered the explanation that the league would have to await an official census which occurs every ten years.

BASEBALL IN A NUTSHELL| JAGKSON BEATEN ENER APPROVES F MATTY’S ACTION Philly Southpaw Mifler Favoredi by a Fitzgerald Decision New Haven, April year-old Lew Tendler, Philadelphia sensational lightweight, took another step towards the championship goal at the Arena last night by decisivei outpointing Willie Jackson of New York in the star number of rounds staged under the direction of the Temple A. C. The bout bordered or ing overy bit as lively as reports would indicate. David Fitzgerald, who w to much criticism for hi the recent Dundee-Jackson match was the third man in the ring last lm;:m and awarded the bout to Tend- er.

Both reported in tip-top sifape and the manner in which they stepped over the long distance could | not help but strengthen that They were always ready to take a wallop or deliver one and seldom iled to take advantage of an open- ing. No knockdowns were scored but the blows which did fly through the air possessed enough steam to flatten the ordinary lightweight. Jackson fought a splendid battle. He made every one of his blows count and on frequent occasions sac- rificed a blow to the stomach to make connections with Tendler's jaw. He fought at a disadvantage, Lowever, as Tendler had height and reach in his favor which, of course, is no little item. Tendler’s awkwa position was also detrimental fo Jackson’s chances. The Philly news- Loy feinted with his right leg and arm extended and invariably chose to box at long range. Jackson didn’t relish this sort of an attack as it was almost impossible for him to treak through his guard. vas in his glory when slugging away at close quarters and it was th method that won him many points early in the contest. As the fight progressed, however, Jackson learned to his own satisfaction that Tendler was no amateur when it came to mixing it at close range. Tendler's Fefty blows in the later stages ot the battle were directed in the course of lively exchanges and much to Jackson's regvet. The sixth, cleventh and fifteenth rounds brought out the best fighting ofi the night. In these rounds the fighters stood toe to tog and battled as if their iives depended upon the result. With only a few seconds to gc in the final round, they stood near the ropes and slugged away with the tenacity of two bulldogs. point. and it was evident that he didn't relish any such body punishment. Ringsiders saw visions of a knock- cut in the thirteenth. Tendler, who had been wearing Jackson down with a terrible fusillade of bhody blows, started a new offensive in this ses- sion and had the New Yorker re- treating. He smashed hard lefts to the stomach which caused Jackson to flinch and followed up his advan- tage with an occasional left to the eye or jaw. An old cut over Jack- son's left eye was reopened and the blood poured from it profusely. Jack- son stood the bombardment well, however, and showed much pep as the bell rang. Tendler continued to use his left to good advantage in the fourteenth and fifteenth, outpointing Jackson by vide margin. Jackson seemed sur- prised when Referee Fitzgerald awarded the scrap to Tendler. Tend- ler left the ring unmarked and fresh as a dai The coolness he d played throughout the fight, coupled with his extreme cleverness and hard hitting, left an everlasting impression in the minds of the fans. Benny Leonard, world's lightweight champion, who is now civilian boxing instructor at Camp Upton, at the bouts. When the news first got around that Leonard was on nd, he was given a rousing cheer. Just prior to the star bout he crawled through the ropes, attired in his army uniform. He then made a speech in which he appealed to the generosity of the fans in behalf of the Soldlers’ Smoke fund. He agreed to present an autographed picture of himself to the person who would hid the highest. Bli Paluski, owner af a chain of Wooster howling alleys, made the highest bid, one of $250. Pictures of Willie Jackson and Benny Vulgar, members of Doc Bagley's stable werc also auctioned. Paluski was also the purchaser of these, bid- ding $55 for the Jackson picture and §20 for that of Valgar. In the semi-final bout Red Ames of Bridgeport easily outpointed Tommy Morengo of Boston, in a ten- round slugging bee. Allen might have scored a knockout but for his failure tc take advantage of opportunities was announced that Marengo had suffered a broken hand in the second rcund. George Proto, the local feather- weight, outpointed Young Caplan of Meriden in the six-round preliminary. CADDOCK VS.

New come from York, April 30.—/Word has Ireland of the sudden death of Orby, Richard Croker's Derby winner of 1907, at the Glen- cairn stud, near Dublin. The classic winner was found dead in his box by the stable boy, although a couple of hours previous he was apparently in the best of health. No definite cause has been ascribed for the death, but an opinion prevails that it was caused by heart failure brought about by a severe colic or an acute attack of in- digestion. He was by Orme, an English sire, out of the American-bred mare Rhoda B. Some time previous to his advent as a three-year-old, Croker was debarred from training at New- market, as Orby was prepared for the big English race in Ireland. At the stud Orby did fairly well, but pro- duced nothing big. PENN BASKETBALL DATES. Syracuse is Dropped From the Sched- ule Next Scasan.
