When Prinoeton severed athletic relations with Harvard after the Crimson had refused to consider the Princeton football game on an cqual footing with the annual Yale en- lcounter, an attempt was wmado to bring about a ney understanding. !Leo Daley, president of the Har- vard student council, and Joseph Prendergast, president of the Prince- | |ton senior council, agreed that five representatives from each of the two bodies would confer on term It was these delegates which the Harvard council has declded not to name. But the only explanation available was that the basis for the new rapprochement failed to suit, the Crimson council. A generally accepted statement of those terms included the stipulation | that the peace move appear to be linitiated by Harvard, and an agree- ment that Harvard alternate the final football game of the year be- tween Yale and Princeton. William J. Bingham, director of athletics at Harvard, reeently de- clared in favor ef making the Yale game the only fixture on the Har- vard schedule but at a subsequent meeting of the board of overscers it became known that officlal sanction had never been voted by that body.

NATIONAL LEAGUE MEETING SERENE Bidding for Players Promises Only Excitement at Gathering New York, Dec. 14.—(®—Screnity marked the of baseball magnates of the National gathering league, here today for their annual meeting at the Waldorf-Astoria, bidding for players on the auction block alone scemed destined to break the even trend of the gathering. After the two-day session, dupli- cate of the American league meeting in Chicago, both leagues will gather Thursday in the mid-western city for their joint assembly. Chief business before the base- ball heads, aside from the eection of Commissioner Landis to a seven- year term, which seems assured later in the weeck at Chicago, con- sted of drafting a playing sched- for the coming year. The National league, already pledged to a longer season, appears certain to decide to name the first week In in October as the closing date in 1927. The season ended the last week in September this year. Commissioner Landls is sald to prolongation, after the short season failed to bring about an carlier date for the world series. Only one club completed the sched- ule on time. The National league magnates, said to oppose any increase in Com- missioner Landis' salary from $50,- 600 to $60,000. Also may take steps oday to have him increase the use- fulness of the advisory council of the major leagues, which has functioned but rarely in the past few years. Today's sission was slated to get under way at 1 p. m., while the gath- ering tomorrow takes place at 10:30 in the morning to allow the mag- nates to catch a train for Chicaio. Not a single deal in players was known to have been completed be- fore the meeting. K Bill Terry, first_baseman of the Giants, was sald to be slated for the Soston Braves in exchange for Joe Genewich, star young pitcher, but no definite arrangement had been made. Dave Bancroft, manager of the Braves, said he had “heard the rumor,” and “sure, I'll swap,” but that he doubted Manager McGraw of Giants would be interested. The Braves would like two inflelders and a catcher from Santa Claus, Ban- croft said.

In the last encounter between the two, the Corbin Screw ‘quintet came out vic torlous but only after, a hard battle, The Screw shop team might he handicapped tonight by the absence of ita captain, Andy Yacobowic star forward. He has been suffer< | ing from an injured hand but at tha latest report, he was about regdy to jump into the game again and he may take his place in the lineup to=« [ night. He {s the star of the team and in all the games so far, has been the heavy scoring ace. The Stanley Rule & Level team won its first game last Thursday, night. I meeting- Landers tonight in the second game of the evening, the Rulers will be faced by a fighty ing bunch of basketballers who are tired of being on the losing end, This should be a battle of batties in the leagus though neffher. team is yet within striking distance of the leadership. The Landers team has been put« ting in some stift practice sessions and will be strong on both the of- ifense and defense tonight. Thas Rule Shop is expected to present the same strong lineup tonight that it had when it won its first gama last week and with Sloman in the game, the team is stronger now than {t has been since ft started. Dick Dillon will referee both con« tests the first of which will start promptly at 8 o’clock. BLUES T0 BANQUET Members of Ranger Football Team To Be Guests of Manager Willlam May Monday Night.
