Co- miskey In the administration of league affairs, in a statement last night re- viewing the pennant prospects for the coming season, urged that the public accord Manager Kid Gleason its full support in his task of rebullding Co- miskey's team, the Chicago White Sox. Mr. Johnson declared it to be his conviction that the race would prove | the most open in the history of the organization. “There has been a change in the leadership of four clubs, he sald, “and a notable realignment In six of the teams. “With the prestige of an American | league championship and a world ser- ies victory, Cleveland, under the lead- ershlp of the peerless Speaker, seems to have much of an advantage over the other contenders for the pennant. The loss of Chapman may ultimately prove a serious handicap. “New York with its array of bat- ting strength, is cdnceded high rank, but St. Louls, Detroit and Washington must not be underestimated when we weigh the fact that they will be guid- ed by new, skilled and ambitious man- agers. “The, numerous victories of Connie Mack's Athletics over the New York | and Philadelphia Nationals in the south this spring would encourage one to belleve that that down-trodden tribe may claim a place in the #un- light this summer. “Keen Interest will be leveled at Ty Cobb and his Tigers. We know that Detroit's new manager has the skill and daring of leadership, and if pa- tience is not lacking in the handling of men, then his success is assured. “What Gleason may accomplish with the rejuvenated White Sox is a problem. It is to be hoped the pa- trons of the sport will accord him loy- al and unfaltering support in his dim- cult assignment. “But above all things,” the state- ment concludes, “it 18 a cherished hope that every player, manager, um- pire and owner in the American league will enter the championship race this year with the single thought and purpose of making it an idedl contest—pleasing to the public and free from any blemish that might tarnish the good name of our national game.'"

Wesleyan and Amherst Arrange Track Meet by Telegraph. Middletown, Conn., April . novel plan for holding a dual track meet by telegraph has been evolved and agreed to by the authorities gov- erning athletics at Wesleyan and Ambherst colleges. Announcement of the project was made here yesterday by Dr. Edgar Fauver, Professor of Physical Education at Wesleyan. The meet will be held during the latter part of this month or early in June. A pre-arranged program of track and fleld events will be run off simultan- eously at Amherst and Wesleyan at the time agreed wupon. Bulletin boards will be erected on the respec- tive fields and the results announced by telegraph. Of course, there is the possibility of differences in weather | and track conditions, but the pro- moters hope that the innovation may help to broaden interest among the students in both colleges. FORDHAM WINS Culleton’s Pitching and Buckley's Batting Brings a Victory New York, April 9.—Steady pitching by “Bud” Culleton, coupled with gilt | edged support on the part of his team mates, gave the Fordham University baseball team a victory over the Uni- versity of Vermont nine at Fordham fleld yesterday afternoon.
