INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE WILL NOT OPERATE MAY MODIFY RULE VIOLATED BY RUTH Change Expectefl Aiter Judge| Landis Disposes of Babe’s (56 | vaskecan in s city this winter this being practically decided on last night, when a meeting of the managers of three teams was held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms. Representatives from P. & F. Corbin, Stanley Works and the New Britain Machine com- pany were on hand at the meeting. The Corbin and Stanley Works man- agers showed a disposition to go ahead with the”league, and,the New Britain Machine company manager was also willing to select a team, just to help out the ltague, but when it came to securing, a fourth team, a tartar was struck. I had been hoped that the Stanley Rule and Level or the Lan- ders, Frary and Clark concerns would be lntere;ted but no inclination was shdwn by the_athletic enthusiasts of these factories to do so, and in con- sequence it was decided to call off the league this season. George Kron, of the Corbin company stated today that the military officials would be notified that no le¥gue will be con- ducted this coming season. The situation as it stands at present, leaves the fleld open to the Knights of Columbus, to produce the popular indoor sport this winter. The local counell it is expected, will be a mem- ber of the state league this winter. Lawyer David L. Dunn has been pam- ed representative of Daly council, to attend o meeting of the league at New Haven next Sunday. Only Three Factories Ready to Enter Teams, so Managers Decide to Abandon Plans. New York, Oct. 19.—AIll so needless, the Ruth flare-up violation of a base- ball rule by going barnstorhing. Les- lie O’Connor, Commissioner Landis's secretary, who left for Chicago last night, had this to say yesterday about the affair: “The rule forbidding world series players from barnstorming wou'd have been modificd and the players permit- ted to play their games had they gone about,it in the right way. Judge Landis when 'here went to the two dressing rooms and informed the players of| both teams of the existence of the rules. “‘Well,’ exclaimed Ruth, without waiting for anything else to be said, there is one player who's going out to play, anyway.' “There was nothing then for Judge Landis to do but stand firm on the rule. Had the players petitioned him for a modification he would have given them the perphission, with such qualifi- cations as would have required them to comduct the trip properly. “The major league club owners were here, and he could properly have put the matter up to them with h!s recom- mendation that the permission be graated. Judge Landis’s whole record zince he has been commissioner shows that he is a friend of the players. One man’s pigheadedness, howaver brought about the present situation. “Before this matter came up Judge Landis had intended to have the rule in question modffied. Whether he will 40 so nmow or not I don’t know, but { think- he will. His idea 13 to allow the ule as it is to stay there, but cc amplity it by making barnstorming trips permissible on consent of the swners of the club involved and the :cmmissioner. “Also the players would be required o abide by certain added require .nents prohibiting their playing against ineligible teams of players or on flelds where they might run the risk of injury and from objectional conduct.’ Mr. O’Connor added that he thought Judge Landis’'s decision on the disci- pline to be meted out to Ruth anc the other Yankee players—Meusel Piercy and Sheehan—would be an- nounced by the end of this week.

There's one brewing and it may meet the proportions ‘of that last year betwean the Red Sox and the Yanks when Hoyt, Schang, McNally and Harper came here in exchange for Pratt, Vick, Ruel and Thormahlen. - “Kid” Gleason, manager of the Sox, victors of the Chicago city series, and the only team that beat the chaplon Yankees on the seagon's play, was in town yesterday and spent the after- noon at the Empire City track and the evening closed with Col.

Starting his varsity football career at Laf- ayette in 1918 he has participated in evey game Lafayette has played in the last three years and is® playing his fourth and last year. In no im- portant game has he failed to finish the battle. Brown’s football playing reflects. the seriousness he displays in the class room. He is one of the honor men of his.class and in schol- astic standing heads every ov.her man on the gridiron squad. LIKELY TO KEEP CRAVATH.
