The club own- ers did not specify the dates of the “playing season.” President Ebbets, however, said that the “playing sea- son” would be from May 10 to August 20, and that the resolution would per- clubs to carry mot more than 35 from August 20 to May 10. Be- May 10 and after August 20 the clubs are usually trying out new play- ers and their staffs are larger. The American league adopted a similar resolution, but it specifically stated that the “playing season” should be from May 1 to August 20. The spring meeting of the league will be held in New York this year, instead of Chicago, as heretofore. This is the meeting at which the playing schedule is arranged and an- nounced.

Murphy and Hill Meet New Haven Pair in Finish for $50 Purse. It's up to Murphy and Hill to turn back the New Haven invaders tonigit at the Rose alleys in- the final five games of their duckpin match, which was started last Wednesday in New Haven. The New Haven team of Jans- wick and West confes here today to roll the second series of five games, and has a lead of seven pins, 929 to 922, which the two Norwich pin splitters must oversome to take down the $50 stake which is up on the ten game se- ries. Rolling on their home alleys this tife, the Norwich pair can have a'l'the confidence in the world, and shoeull leave the New Haven pair on the small end of the score. Total pinfall in the entire series is what counts, so that the series is practically an aven thinzg the way it stands, bu* with the handi- cap all against the New Haven two, who are appearing on alleys they have never seen before. The bout will be one of the classiest attractions yet produced by Manager Stone and should bring out a throng to see the struggle. The big match will be put on at 7.45 in the evening, but Messrs, Janswick and West will arrive by the 2 o'clock train in the afternoon and will roll a three game match against Murphy and Hill at 4 oclock in the afternoon. Manager Huntley of the Tuxedo al- leys and Prof. F. L. Lautenbach are expected to accompany the New Haven team.

Norwich, Gonn, class officers, which resulted in the de- feat of Hamilton Fish, Jr. for first marshal, and it is said that Mr. Fish has taken his defeat so much to heart that he has left college. He has taken the réquisite number of courses to ob- tain his degree, and has obtained leave of absence for the remainder of the year, according to Harvard reports. The trouble grew out of the manner in which the football team was handled by Mr. Fish. The action which defeat- ed Mr. Fish alleged that certain men were kept off the team who would have strengthened it materially. One of them was Robert C. Brown, who was a candidate for first marshal in opposi- tion to Mr. Fish, and was elected. Harvard men bet heavily on the game with Yale and became very bitter to- ward Mr. Fish because of the defeat, believing that had changes been made in the lineup during the game or before the result would have been different. The bitterness grew to such an ex- tent that a campaign was started against his candidacy for first marshal, ‘When he was defeated at class election the surprise and chagrin among his supporters was so great and led to such a disagreement that the election of a class secretary had to be post- poned until the bitterness subsided somewhat. ELECT A PRESIDENT. T. J. Lynch, an Old Umpire, is Choice of the National League—Heydler as Secretary-Treasurer. The National League of Professional Baseball Clubs, which has been dead- locked for several days past in its an- nual meeting in New York over the choice of a president, settled the ques< tion Saturday by the election of Thom- as J. Lynch of New Britain, Conn., whose name had not been considered or publicly mentioned for the position. Itr is ‘believed that the election was brought about through an understand- ing arrived at in a secret meeting be- tween the two oppsing factions. ‘When the league owners met Satur- Cay three ballots were taken, all of them resulting in the same tie, four for Ward and four for Brown. Then, apparently by agreement, President Ebbets of Brooklyn read a letter from ‘Ward, in which he withdrew from the contest. At the same time Staniey Robison of St. Louis withdrew Brown's name. Following the pre-ar- ranged plan, Brush nominated Lynch, referring to him by his better known title, “the king of umpires.” The seven other magnates quickly seconded the nomination and the election was made unanimous. Ebbets, who had been one of the bitterest opponents of the candidacy of John A. Heydler, who succeeded the late Harry C. Pulliam as president, nominated Heydler for secretary-treas- urer, a position which he has filled continuously for many years, even lat- terly while president. There was a hitch here. It was understood that Heyvdler would not accept the ap- pointment for one year, and after a confab he was nominated for three Y. M. C. A. Basketball Five Have Easy Game With Baltic Team.

CUT DOWN ERROR COLUMN, Fred Tenney Says This Would Aid Batters and Stop the Shirking of Difficult Chances. Cut out the error column, says Fred Tenney, famous first baseman, once | manager of the Boston National league | club and now with the New York Gi- {ants. By the elimination of this coi- umn in the tabmlated score, with the exception of wild throws on which base rnuuers advance an extra base, this veteran believes that another step forward would be made. His idea, when carefully considered, presents fondmon; that are worthy of thought. ‘How many times are batters robbed of what are almost sure base hits?" says Tenn “This is especially true in line drives to infielders. No great credit is due to the infielder, for get- ting these balls as a rule, for they are shot straight at him. Of course there are exceptions, as there are to almost everything, but that is the rule. As a matter for fact the batsman-is almost entitled to a hit. Surely he hit the pitcher hard enough to get one, but the luck of the game, that cuts such an imrportant figure in baseball, happens ia that instance to be against him. Make Everything a Hit. “So I figure that if the error col- umn. so far as fumbled balls or bad throws 1o a baseman are concerned, was el‘m'nated, making everything a Lit, it *vould only just about even up for these infleld line drives that the batter loses because the infielder hap- pens to be right in front of a hard hit bail driven straight into his hands. Naturaily the scoring of a flelder's cheice would remain just as it is to- cay, for the infielder makes the play on some other base rnuuer when the batsman could have been thrown out at first. Again there must be come way of scoring extra bases taken by a runner on a bad throw. For that I weuld lcave the error column in the box seore, but it would represent wild throwe, nct the fumbled balls, or a bad throw to first on a batted ball. “This wculd naturally make some differerce in the batting and fielding averages o the players, but I don’t think it wcul boost any batsman vi muck, while it would take away th: excus? fcr a fielder shirking a hard | chance for fear he might be penalized for a misplay. There are some such men playirg the game, you know, theugh one of that kind is never a high class performer. It wouldn't take lorg for those who are watching the the diTarence in this change would muke in the hitting of a player. And, why should a batter be penalized virg a Lit taken away from him manages to hit the bdll in v that an infielder mu:ses it Ratber "I think, to do justice on ides, o base hit should be credit- when he Thinks Fielding Averages Worthless. “No one who follows baseball closely er thinks of judging a player's abi 7 in the field by the official flelding averages, We all know well that a £0)1 plaver goes after exerything with- in reach, never fearing a possible er- ror through a fumble or a bad throw to first. He is there to try to make the play, to get everything he can get his | hands on, and if he shirks because he is afraid of that error, then he isn't Zoing to get lots of balls that he might havs randled cleanly and gone through with for a putout. The present field- i averages are practically worthless, t is almost always that the best ers have the lowest percentage, > those who don’t or can't cov much ground get away with the few ®st errors and therefore are at the top in the average Hence, in picking young ball players, scouts judge by wha' they see them do, not by what they read in the fielding averages, T believe that such a change in the scoring rules would make good ball players of some of the poorer ones, and it would make still better per- foriners of the best of them. To me it loks as though it would be a step in the right direction, keeping pace with .[is privatel bytting averages closely to figure out | Should Be Exposed There have béen plenty of them, no doubt, and they have been- condemned—so vigorously « that " exery sort of medicine the formula of whicl wned Is .condemned and onounced “unethical” by the Medical rofessio Eckman's Alterative deserves aften- tion, not because it is a “proprietary” but because it really ny cases of Tubercu it needs ' exposing y,. beeause i‘ number of "cured Consumptives will need to find some other reason for be- ing well, ¢ g enry Clay said he would rather be right than be President.
